Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 25, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 September 1905 — WASHINGTON. [ARTICLE]
WASHINGTON.
The move has not been very quiet, but there is a strong move by some good people of our City and adjacent country in the direction of buying lands in the United States of America under the old Flag and at much less per acre than $12.50. No better land found in any other country, no more promising future, no better speculation, no greater profits to be realized, all prairie land and in the best climate under the sun, healthful and pleasant the year round. We are selling this land to people on its merits and we will guarantee every one that they will find it just as we represent it to them in every respect. We are willing for you to inquire of any one who has lived in this country one year or longer and take their version for it without filling you with hot air to get you to go, or you come aud go see it. ~ ~ This land is selling and for that reason we are not begging for buyers but only desire to let our friends know what we have and give them a chance to get something that will do them good. We were called by a man several miles from here Monday of thiß week who wanted to and did buy a good size tract of land. We had only 30,000 acres when we began to sell, the bigger portion is now sold and it will stand any one in hand to come and see us soon if you want any at the price, We are selling it now for $5.00 per acre, all cash or in payments if a man wants it that way. These lands are in Central Eastern Washington and unsurpassed in fertility and accessibility, addaptable to any phase of farming, no Stygomia, no potato bugs, no infection in fruit, no bubonic plague. and the finest people in the world for neighbors. Come and see us, many are going sure.
B. F. FERGUSON.
