Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 December 1905 — Cuban Land. [ARTICLE]

Cuban Land.

I am not a land agent, but I can tell yon where I bought land last year that haß already Increased in value 150 per cent. This is because thousands of Americans are investing there, building railroads, sugarmills, saw-mills. aDd other things necessary to develop a new aDd fertile country. Land that is producing SSO to $75 clear profit per acre yearly in sugar cane. Land that is producing $750 per acre net profit yearly in ordinary cocoanuts. Land that is producing S4OO per acre yearly in oranges, lemons, pineapples and bananas. Land where rich grass grows higher than a horse’s back, and on which cattle fatten with no other food, ready for the block. Land with a perfect climate, cooler in summer than it is in Indiana, with no frosts, and plenty of rainfall. Richer land than you ever saw, unless you have been there. Land covered with forests of great commercial value, such as mahogany, sabicou, juiqui, etc. I can introduce you to a man who makes a practice of backing these statements up with his pocket-book—he will give any responsible party his certified check for S2OO, and if this party should, upon investigation, find any of these statements untrue, he shall go tothe hank and get his S2OO, which pays his expenses and leaves S6O for his time; but if everything is as represented he shall hand the check back, and he will buy land, all he can pay for, just like I did. This won’t last always, and ‘‘the early bird,” etc. Parties going to Cuba every month. If you want to know more, see me. or write. Rensselaer. Ind. E.
