FINE FARM AT AUCTION.
Having invested in the “black belt” of Mississippi, I have decided to sell my farm, located 3 miles south and % mile east of Rensselaer, and will dispose of the same at public auction Tuesday, September 24, 1912, at 1:30 o’clock. The farm consists of 160 acres, 100 of which is thoroughly tiled and under cultivation; 60 acres is in pasture and includes 10 acres of white oak post timber. The building improvements consist of good 8-room 2-story house, with basement and cistern, milkhouse, windmill, pasture well, barn and granery 42x60 feet, a new vitrified brick silo, 14x30 feet, double corn crib, machine shed, cement hog feeding floor, a fine orchard and considerable small fruit; 80 acres is under hog tight fence. This farm will be sold without reserve to the highest bidder. I have improved this farm with the expectation of occupying it myself or having some member of my family occupy it, and the improvements are as substantial as money will buy. You should not fail to investigate this farm and you can see it any day between now and the date of sale. MARION I. ADAMS. Terms— Will be announced later. I will take any person to the farm that wants to see it any time between now and the date of sale. » FRED PHILLIPS, Auctioneer. Mrs. Kenton Parkison, who underwent a surgical operation at St. Luke’s hospital two weeks ago, had so far recovered Monday as to be able to be brought home and she arrived on the 2 o’clock train that afternoon. Her improvement is all that could be expected and permanent recovery is now practically assured. Her father, Abe Hardy, who came from Rogers, Ark., to be near her during the operation, expects to return to the west Thursday. He lives on a farm owned by Frank Hardy, near Rodgers. Frank was for some time in the mercantile business but traded out his store some time ago.
