Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 38, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 February 1906 — Billy Burns Bought Big Bills. [ARTICLE]

Billy Burns Bought Big Bills.

W. W, Burns, of Barkley, is advertising a public sale for Feb., 15th. He has one of the largest lists of property of any of this season’s sales, also one of the biggest and best bills to advertise it with. He sold his big farm in Barkley some time ago, and since then has bought two others in different places, yet he is still undecided where he will locate during the coming season. One of his new farms is a 320 acre tract in Minnesota, but there is no house on that. The other is a 235 acre farm in Washington county, this state, but he has rented that for the present year to a man who had been occupying it before. Therefore Mr. Burns is still out of a place for himself for this year.
