Cheap Wheat Ranches
Sherman county farm ers have some
wonderful opportunities for safe in-
itments in Morrow county wheat
land and stock farms.
B. M. Shutt, an old resident of
Sherman county, and known through
out Oregon as a man of reliability,
has resigned the office of sheriff of
Morrow county in order to establish a
real estate office in Heppner
He
asserts, and offers positive proof, that
Morrow county contains the cheapest
good farm land and stock ranches to
be had anywhere in the west.
The same quality of wheat land
that is now selling in Sherman and
Wasco counties for from $60 to 1100
per acre, and in parts of eastern
Washington for from $75 to $150 per
acre, can now be had in Morrow coun
ty for from $30 to $50 per acre- sim
ply because it has not been boosted
nor as intensively farmed as yet.
These cheap Morroiv county farms
are the best and safest investment to
be had today, and Mr. Shutt invites
his old neighbors over here to call
and see him at Heppner, or write to
him for full particulars. He guar
antees a square deal and no deception
to all who intrust their business to
him, and he will help those who pur
chase this land as an investment only,
to find reliable renters. One or two
good crops will pay for the land at
present prices.
