ALFALFA HAY After twenty years experience in growing and handling alfalfa I believe I am qualified to judge both alfalfa hay and alfalfa land. Yesterday I made a thorough inspection of the growing crops on the Balfour Guthrie Tracts to be sold at Publio Auction. I found about 200 ACRES OF THE BEST ALFALFA LAND I HAVE EVER SEEN. There is not the equal of it any where in Jackson County. Until my inspection yesterday I had not fnlly realized the tremendous bargains going at this sale. Don't let these auction bargains get away from you. Never again will you have such opportunities. WALTER H. JONES. PASTURE Did you ever dream of an ideal stock ranch?
