BIG LAND SALES
MARK PAST YEAR
AT TABLE
Several Thousand Dollars
Expended in Improvement
Crops. Prices Average
Table Rock Jan. 15. (Spl )
The year 1939 was one of the
best since 1929 in this district,
in the way of improvements.
general crop yields and pros
pects. During the year several
thousand dollars were spent for
improvements including new
farm hnilriines. new roofs, re
pairs and modernizing of dwel-!
lings and leveling of land.
At least three important real
estate deals were consumnated.
including sale .of the Wykotf
ranch, one of the largest in
the district, to Ben E. Harder,
of Mcdford; part of the Palmer
holdings along the river, better
known as the Modoc orchard,
to Dick Richman, and sale of
the Ralph Wilson place to Mr.
Wcstrup, of Chicago. Extensive
Improvements were begun at
once by the various purchasers.
' War Hitt Peara
A pear crop better than av
erage in quantity and quality
started to market with good
prices but met reverses with
outbreak of the war in Lurope.
il
Prices, however, will still net
as much or more to growers
in the past year or two.
Crops of wheat, oats and
barley were In normal yield
and brought prices a little bet
ter than usual.
Those growing corn report
better than average yield which
ripened earlier owing to a fav
orable corn season. Prices were
no better than last year, owing
to low prices on hogs and
turkeys. j
Report indicate that the
highly advertised hybrid com I Bethel, Texas to Hattie W. Hur
i'd not yield as much as the I ley who survives. There are also

sufficiently encouraging to war
rant growing It again this year.
Sweet Corn Profitable
Those growing onions and
lettuce were favored with
rood yields and excellent qual
ity but lacked a market and
price. Sweet corn did well both
as to yield and price.
The hay crop, mostly alfalfa
and vetch, was from smaller
acreage but a good yield was
obtained with normal prices.
Much of the crop will be fed
to beef cattle and dairy stock.
Very little new machinery
was purchased by farmers here
the reason being advanced that
there is too much difference
between what farmers receive
for their products and the
prices asked for the things
needed.
As the new year advances
there seems to be somewhat
more optimism among most of
the landowners, although con
sidering low prices for some
product and better prices for
others 1939 net returns were
very little better than the av
erage. Most improvements were
made with money brought into
the district by land buyers.

Throw a dollar ou
o the window
Thefe'j a certain amount of pleasure in throwing a
dollar bill out of the window (we suppose we've
never tried it) . . . watching it float through the air
. . . guessing where it's going to land . . . seeing it
finally settle on a curbstone . . . and perhaps seeing
some surprised individual pick it up.
At least, it's certainly more fun than throwing away
a dollar bill by paying one hundred cents extra for
something you're buying. Yet every year we all part
with a goodly sum of hard-earned cash that we might
otherwise save if we knew how to buy!
The quickest, easiest, simplest way to learn how to
buy is to read the advertisements in this newspaper.
Know values. Know prices. Know quality. Start
now to stop throwing dollar bills away!
