SECURE A HOME IN THE LAND Of FL0HR5
DINSMORE!

DlNOMONL!
One of the growing towns of the
South, is situated on both sides of
Savan ah, Florida s. Western
Railroad, just twelve miles from
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t is high, dry
and level, and a successful horti-
cultural and truck-growing section
of the State. Dinsmore can be
easily reached from Jacksonville by
railroad, by water route, or by an
hour and a half drive over au excel
lent plank and shell road.
Dinsmore is not one of the iSola-
ted spots that is only laid out on
paper, but a thriving prosperous
town that recommends itself to
capitalist and laborer, to fathers
and wives who are vigilant over
their own interests and the welfare
of their children, to those who are
seeking homes and those who have
capital to invest for speculation.
The land can be obtained at re-
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present low
figures a poor man can make regu-
lar payments on valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. 1t is all ill.,
vestment that one cannot regret
and through which you will realize
many times the amount invested.
The prices are for Front Business
Lots one acre, S65, $50, $50. Sec
ond choice, S25 $l8. Third choice
SIS. Fourth choice $40. Fifth
choice, SIS. 1t must be remember.
ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adj cent TO
Dinsmore, containing from five to
sixteen acres each, which we offer
for the benefit of those who wish to
farm at SIS acre.
Our terms are one fourth cash
and balance in one, two and three
years.
The chain Of title will be short
and strong. 1t is from the State 0i
Florida to the Railroad and from
the Railroad to you.
sTruck farming around Dlusmote
would be at the door of two tf the
greatest markets in the SonIh. Ltt
every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy d lot in
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson.
vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There are
eight passenger trains per day anu
the round trip will only cost TWEEN,
ty-five cents. Trout creek, large
stream passes right through the
vicinity, thus affording pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainag,
and abundance of fish.
TAKE WARNING NOW, and
do not let this grand opportunity
slip you. 1t is the very best chance
you will have TO secure a good
piece of valuable property and such
startling prices.
The merchants in Dinsmore are
enjoying a good trade and the
town is rapidly growing. Saw
mills are convenient for securing
timber to build, and laborers who
desire work can get from q dollar
and a half to two dollars per day
