Reports of activity in farm trade and demand for farms to rent come in from S many points. It is an encouraging sign, and a development that naturally u- follows improved farm conditions. By any method of measurement, farm g products are now selling on quite a satisfactory basis. The opportunity •fi to make money on the farm has become again apparent, and a good many people, hesitating between farming and something else, are leaning farmr? ward because they are doubtful regarding the something else as 'well they may be.

’When To Buy A Farm ?S We find a good many people have the idea that this is the time to negotiate the purchase of a farm. There is a good deal of land that in one way or another is involved jp in indebtedness. Some of it may be had on most advantageous terms. Certainly it will never be lower if farm prices of farm products improve further, or even are - maintained at somewhere near their present level. The outlook for some years is favorable. Just about everybody agrees in regard to that. t Land is a bargain when it can be bought at the low point and just before a rise in prices sets in. If conditions develop as they promise to, this is the time lor the young t man or the renter to set sail for land ownership. i£ , We are equipped to assist in closing land deals where additional funds are needed, on good mortgage security, at a very low rate of interest and on a partial payment plan that is drawn in favor of the borrower. 1 I YOU WILL RECEIVE A HEARTY WELCOME AT OUR OFFICE. ~ - « / ' i : THE SUTTLES-EDWARDS CO. : B 155 SOUTH SECOND STREET (First Moor).

i Another thing that is helping the land owner these days is the increasing at- J tractiveness of farm loans. There was a day not far back when money shied ! at a farm loan. It is different now. Any deserving borrower is readily ac- i comodated, and at a reasonable rate of interest on farm mortgages. Noth- 1 t ing in the nature of-a boom is expected, or desired, but a healthy condition in j farm trade is developing, and it will step right along while crop and live stock J prices remain relatively as good as they are now and have been some months. t
