The newest swindle upon our farmers
is as follows: Sharper No. goes to a far

at a high price, which is usually accepted
and fifty dollars or so deposited to bind
the bargain. Then Mr.. Sharper's FRIEND
comes along and offers $1,000 or so more
in advance of. the first price. Then The
farmer goes to number one, and by paying
him a good round sum, say $500, secures
a release. The enterprising fellow who
wants the land so badly at the highest FIG
ure, forgets to come around, and the far
mer is about $3.50, out, which, of course, /!
divided between the sharpers.-Medin'
