J HpHERE are more northern farmers going south i 1 than to any other section. While the land is J very cheap today, in one year from now you ■ will pay as much for land as you pay in any part of J this country. We have thousands of acres of improvB ed and unimproved land in the Tensas Delta for sale. J Improved farms are selling for sls to S6O per acre. J Louisiana has the soil, the climate and the con- ■ ditions that are conducive to happiness. They have • all the conveniences that we have in the north. « Catarrhal trouble, with its kindred diseases, is un.- ■ known. They have the gulf breezes from the south, ■ and the pine breezes from the north. Tuberculosis • is unknown. • It * s the home of Alfalfa, Lespidesa, Clover, Oats, ■ Wheat, Corn, Peas and Beans. Labor is cheap. Labor • in the north owns farmers, and the farmers in the ■ south own labor. There are two crops of grain rais- ; ed there EACH year. The average price of the very • best labor is 75 c a day and they board themselves. JJ Ordinary labor is 50c a day. The average corn crop ■ m Louisiana is 70 bushels to the acre, and oats 70 J bushels. Grass is from two to four tons per acre ■ twice a year. ■ There are no cyclones, nor Texas Northwesters, J nor sand storms, nor drouths, nor floods. Neither ■ irrigation nor drainage is needed other than nature J has furnished. This delta is 30 miles wide by about ■ 90 miles long. It has churches and schools in abtind- ’ ance. In fact, everything that makes a home what it ■ should be. The plantations are well improved with J a plantation house and houses for the help. It has

SOME BARGAINS! WE HAVE many more farms, write for anything you may want. We have some unimproved land right near a county seat we can sell for $35 to S6O per acre.and they are bargains. We have quite a number of farms from SBO to $l6O per acre. This is only a very small part of the property we have for sale.

been a timber country, and the timber is virgin, consisting of oak, and red and blue gum, but mostly oak. A visit to the locality will prove to anyone that our assertions are true. There is no spot on earth more conducive to the happiness and welfare of the people. New Orleans is now one of the best markets in the world, buLupon the completion of the Panama canal, it will be the greatest market in the world. Advantages here are better than any place. Stock of all kinds thrives and does well. They feed on grass, peas, etc., and very little corn is needed to fatten them. In the north you have to work eight months in the year to live four, and in the south -you, can work ten months. January and February, the rainy months, is their winter. We also have a great many plantations in Mississippi for sale. We are in position to make some exchanges in order to help people get plantations of goad size in the south. Outside of corn, wheat, oats and grasses, there is no spot on earth can rival it in the production of cotton. It produces from one to two tons of cotton to the acre. We should like to have you come and see us and talk the matter over, then go down and see the country. We will furnish you with, all possible information. If you will call at our office, we will be pleased to give you full and complete information in regard to the country. We are running excursions twice a month. The railroad fare from here to the point we go is about S3O round trip. Call in and see us, we will be only too glad to furnish full and complete information. •
