If you are inclined to sell your ranches at all, now Is
the time, when everybody hvants to buy. If you
want to retire and take things easier for awhile,
take advantage of the present conditions and list
your land iwith me at onre. Let the other fellow or
the younger men do the work and make the money
for a while. The change will give you new pep and
a more vigorous, enthusiastic grip upon life.
After several months of careful effort, I have secured a
large list of outside buyers who will be here within
the next 90 days to look at your land.

from its very beginning in Oregon.
The College has reduced cost of pro

Like the State University

It has helped bring school, business,

Higher Education is of direct

But higher education in Oregon is
crippled by great increases in attend

You are respectfully urged to vote
