stock off 20,000.
The First Sale Made By This
During the nine months which have since elapsed it lias iunde 107 sales
to 104 different persons. Of the purchasers 85 have bought farming lands.
It has also, during this time sold 01 residence lots in Salem. Of thoso
purchasing but 25 were residents of Marion county prior to purchasing.
The remainder were from the following localities, viz: Jackson Co. 1
Polk Co. 3 Multnomah Co, 4 Clackamas Co. 1 Yamhill Co 1 Mon
tana 4 Minnesota 4 Kansas 10 England 2 Colorado 2 Washington
Territory 7 Ibwa 5 Dakota 3 Indiana 2 California 8 Nebraska 7
Ohio 3 Wisconsin 1 Missouri 1 Illinois 1 Pennsylvania 2 Unknown 7.
This shows that sales are not confined to former residents of this local
ity, but that people are swarming in trom the East to make their homes
among us. The business of this company is constantly increasing. More
than half of its sales havo been made within the past three months, al
though this is a season of tho year when sales are usually dull. The
company has from 15 to 20 men constantly employed. It has representatives
on Puget Sound. Ithas three men in Portland, two ot whom give itthelr
entire time. Rev. F. J. Strayer, who last year introduced so many immi
grants into this State, is now In the East lecturing and distributing
advertising literature exclusively for this company. He will start to this
State with his first excursion on the 4th of April next.
This company is now spending more money to advertise Salem aud the
surrounding locality than
The Salem Board of Trade and
Within the past twelve days it has paid for and contracted
for advertising to tho amount of
Oyer Fifteen Hundred and Twenty-Five Dollars,
The second edition of the companyrs pamphlet descriptive of Salem aud
tho Willamette Valley is now in press. This is an edition of
TWENTY THOUSAND COPIES
Of a beautifully illustrated fifty page pamphlet. Wo cannot advertise
so extensively "in our homo papers as we wish, for the reason that parties
whom we most desire to reich are residents of the Eastern SjStategj whee
Hipa nnnors do not circulate. Wo do not advertiso every sale 'wo1 mako
in tho local press, but we have advertised in more than
ONE THOUSAND PAPERS
In the East, as we depend upon Eastern buyers for tho great bulk of our
patronage. During tho next few months our advertisements
will be read by millions of readers of Eastern newspapers,
who will thus bo placed in direct communication with us, aud
nearly all of those who come to this cuast will come ticketed' for the office of

No wonder Sam Jones is popular.
Ho will get oil" by tho hour a lot of
odd stufl HUo tho following, and
overy now and then often strike
right where It docs tho most good :
"I don't go much on culture so
called. Do you know I once knew
a fellow that spoke seven languages,
and ho lied onco out of eyery three
times ho spoke. They put me down
as an ignoramus. I've had letters
saying 'Jones, tell us your nationality
aud color.1 Well, I tola them I was
a Caucasian and tor color I'm a yel-
low-bufl". But If you tako mo for an
ignoramus you'll get left. You ask
me why I mix my language so for ?
I tako short cuts. Tho devil does
the same thing and gets then while
the Christian is pulling on his boot.
I'll tell you what, though, if my
sentences aro as distorted or out of
shape as the fashionable women of
this town, I'll well, I'll quit, that's
all.
"But I tell you it's no use talking,
when God's given a man a wife witli
six or eight or ten children, the
Lord's done a big tiling for him, but
when he gives a man a wife and a
canary-bird well, he Just throwsoft'
on him, that's all."
Owing to this changeable climate, It U
