DOES FARMING PAY?-We have alwavs
entertained the opinion during a nine teen
years residence in Iowa, that farming out
here would pay. To be sure work is neces-
sary, and the same financial management
that is expected Of any clear headed busi-
ness man. That farming in Iowa paws well,
We give the following fact as an evidence.
A gentleman who landed in this city little
more than two years ago in rather moderate
circumstances, concluded that be would en-.
gage in farming, having some experience
in that pursuit. Not having money to buy,

prairie farm in this coun,y, agreeing to paw
one thousand dollars for the lease. 10 break
the prairie and fence the farm. lie bought
a team and wagon, and had to 60 in debt
for immediate supplies. He went to work
and raised two crops, and sold the products
Of his leased land to such advantage that
be has paid his debts, and has bought a
loo acre farm in this county. upon which
be will locate. he having sold his lease
which has yet two years TO run, for one
Thousand dollars. These are facts. The
gentleman's ;ruthfulness can be vonched for
by some of our most reliable citizens. ana
any persons particularly anxious to learn
his name can do so upon applicaiion.-Dar
