These Bonds, at present price Of gold, yield over
per cent. interest, and as an investment they are
fully as secure as U. 3. a0's, which now only pay
Ga per cent. in currency.
They are only issued upon each section of the Road
as fast as the same is completed and in successful
operation Over two and a-half millions Of dollars
have been expended on the Road. Eighty three
miles are about completed and equipped and already
show large earnings and the remainder of the line
rapidly progressing toward completion
The State OF iowa, through which this road runs
is one OF the richest agricultural sections In America
Its large population, extending with surprising ra
pdity, and its immense yield of grain, pork, wool
and other agricultural products, create q pressing
demand for the construction Of this road which af
fords the best possible guarantee for the bondhoa
ers, especially as the line through the
and most thickly populated section Of the State.
Ihe road also runs through the yich and grotr,pg
S'a,e Of Minnesota. Reference to the map of the
United States will show that rarersss rae osf enter

latter city 20 miles nearer from Northern Iowa and
all portions Of the State of Minnesota than by any
other road now built projected and also the near

The road is opened for local traffic as rapidly as
