Of Farms in Rutland County, and those wish.
ing to buy can always find with me a
large list Of farms to select from, of various
siIes, prices and locations, and any and all
having Real Estate to dispose of, either farms,
dwellings or mills, they will consult their best |
interests by giving me a full and accurate de,
scripton, location, &c, OF the property they |
wish to sell. Recolleet, make no charge for |

the property entrusted to my care.
am also agent for the sale of the lands Of the |
Hannibal and St, Joseph Railroad Company of
Missouri. This Company own over 100000
acres of the finest agricultural, timber and coal
lands in Northern Missouri, lying ON either eide
of the Railroad which traverses thu State a dis,
lance Of 2Qn miles from Fast TO West from
Hannibal, on the Mississippi to It. Joseph, on
the Missouri River, and through one of the
richest and most fertile tracts on this continent,
combining all the advantages that are requisite
or desirable for home in the West; mild and
healthy climate rich soil, plenty Of wood and
coal and .ood water, have spent several
weeks myself in Missouri, the pact summer, in
looking over the lands Of this company through
the entire length of the Road, Il d while there
and since my return have made several pur.
chases OF Real Estate, for myself and friends,
deeming the Investment thus made not only
perfectly safe, but certain to rapidly rise in
value. Now is the time to 20 to Mo. while
land may be had cheap as the prices must soon
double and treble. tits not an uncommon occur,
renee for the first crop raised or a farm there to
more than pay for the land itself, and the entire
cost of preparing and sowing the land and
haryc.tng the crop. even know one man who
bought, one year ago last March, farm Of 2i0
acres in Mo, at 5000, and the same season
raised $500 bushels OfcOrn, that brought readily
one dollar per bushel, thus more than paying
for his entire purchase from one crop of corn,
besides having the growth afffty head of cattle
and ore hundred sheep. A friend of mine
| writes me that he has sold, this fall over 81 200
worth Of wheat from thirty acres Of land, which
| land cost him but $500 per acre two years ago
thus clearing him nearly $1,000 over and above

neCted herewith recently erected by them for
the purpose of charging their business and in
creasing the production, as they have hitherto
been entirely unable to I'LL near all the orders
received for their justly celebrated forks, and |
have no doubt that if a score or more of midas
