BEAUT
FARM
Within a fifteen minutes ride the heart of Hammond's market and business district, and within the City Limits, we have purchased and divided twenty acres into twenty-seven three quarter acre tracts. Located on Columbia Avenue between 17th and 18th Streets, with a fine, rich, black soil, level with the street, these tracts will make beautiful home sites for the man who wants "a home with a big yard." Each tract is especially adapted to small truck farming, poultry or small stock raising. It's a wonderful chance to reduce the high cost of living. In a few years this will be part of Hammond's finest residence district, and the man who buys now, can if he cesires, subdivide his tract into about ten ordinary city size lots and sell them at a big profit. The present price is about the same as you would pay for a twenty-five foot residence lot in Hammond.

GOLFERS TO INVADE rtllCHIGANJITY LINKS Hammond Country Club to Play Its Second Match Game.
PROHL INQUEST PROCEEDINGS LOST Miss Nell Smith, coroner's clerk, said at the office of Coroner Frank W. Smith in Gary today that no verdict had been returned in the death of John Prohl, the Hammond contractor, as the papers in the inquest had been lost in the malls between Hammond and Gary. Mr. Prohl was killed on a grade crossing. The postoffice department has its agents trying to trace the lost papers.
Hammond golfers are busily engaged
this week in puting In all the spare time they can In getting ready for their second battle with the Pottawottamie Club of Michigan City next Saturday I afternoon. They expect from reports that have come from Michigan City lately that the golfers there are preparing to strew the prostrate remains of the Hammond Country Club all over the grass. Hammond won the first leg of thet series between the two cities here a few weeks ago and It is declared that the LaPorte county boys are determined on sweet revenge. The match la expected to be very close and as it Is on the Michigan City team's own course they will naturally have the advantaga as some of the Hammond team have never played at Michigan City. ! If the hosts win, another match will have to be played to decide the series.
Besides the eight men on the Hammond team seven more of the local golfers will acoinpany them and play a like number of Pottawottamies.
Should they not be found it Ik telleved that the shorthand writers can give new copies, or else a second Inquest will be conducted.
