A Good Investment

Anyone who has ever dealt in lands,
knows that no investment of money will
so surely and quickly yield return, as
such venture If carefully made. To
the absolute safety o. a government
bond, is added profit far in excess of
rate of interest which can be obtained
on any safe loan. In Kansas and Neb-
raska especially lands are raising in value
very rapidly and with steady growth
which gives assurance of stability. The
good season and the great tide of immi>
grafton into these states has made invest
ment there doubly safe and desirable.
The climate of Southern Nebraska aud
of Kansas free as it is from the long
RIGOROUS cold winter, added TO soil
unsurpassed for richness and productive
capacity, has made possible the wonderful
development of these states. To the far
mer they hold out special inducements.
