Wonderful Crops On Gifford’s Land.
I want the public to know that the Haddock marsh is the best part of northern Indiana. .We have raised this years oats reaching as high as 61 bushels to the acre. We will have oorn that will make over 80 bushels to the acre, if frost holds off, in the Haddook Marsh. These farms are the best in Jasper County, and are offered for the low rent of one-third. If they will ride through this marsh they will see a sight never before seen, whioh will pay them for their trouble. The oorn in many places stands like a oane-brake, and is well earned, and the fact is now emustrated that the grain muck beds are, the best agricultural lands. All who can should take an extended drive through this marsh as it is worthy of public attention. B. J. Gifford.
