SPECIAL PULLMANICAR EXCURSIONS TO THE SWIGART TRACT. 9 W

MANY FARMERS from the north and central states are going to Michigan’s most progressive district, w£e new towns are rapidly growing up and a thriving community is beine established. This district is in Mason, Manistee and Lake counties, in a large tract of land unusually well located. It is known as the Swigart Tract and men familiar with conditions in Michigan recognize that in this district an agricultural development is going on that is more rapid than has ever been seen in the

SPECIAL ADVANTAGES that are drawing to the Swigart Tract more settlers than to any other part of the Wolverine . State are: That the tract lies in the center of Michigan’s Famous Fruit Belt and is especially adapted for fruit growing, the lands being just near enough to derive the greatest benefit from Lake Michigan’s influence; mild, even climate; local markets, including Ludington and Manistee with over 30,000 combined population, on the edge of the tract; surroundings of a well settled country; four lines of railtoads; products delivered by steamships to Chicago and Milwaukee over night; schools and churches throughout the tract; home conditions ideal; one thousand 4flacre pieces to select from. ( THE &WIGART TRACT is the place for the Tenter to come who no longer wants to pay out the bulk of his earnings in rent where lands are so high priced that: they can be owned by the wealthy alone. It is the place for the man to come who wants to work for himself. Nowhere van ope find lands for sale at $lO to $35 per acre that can be made to so quickly produce a living. DO YOU WANT a productive piece of farm land that will support you in plenty while you build it up into a property becoming constantly more valuable, then buy in the Swigart Tract. There’s where your money will go the farthest. For $lO to SSO down and $5 to $lO per month you can buy 40 acres. |
