F. Stackhouse closed up a deal Monday for the J. F. Warren farm of 100 acres, miles north of town, consideration SB,OOO, or SBO per acre. This is the highest price paid thus far for land, in the immediate vicinity of Rensselaer, although several, it is said, have refused SBS per acre.'f-'The Warren farm is well tiled we understand, lies near town, on a gravel road, and has not an acre of waste land upon it.
