Are You Satisfied With the Gil
mate of Minnesota?
Do you enjoy snow storms up to the
lst OF May? Do you contemplate look
ing up locality where the climate is
far better; where fruit grows in abun-
dance; where there is plenty of all kinds
of timber and coal cheap; where the
water is the purest on earth; where the
farm lands are rich and productive;
where the earth is imbedded with val
liable minerals; where health is restored
and business is good in all lines? There
is such a country, and it is not far away,
and if the people of the North will look
to their own interests they will grasp
the golden opportunity and go and in
vestigate, for it costs but little. Spring
field, Mo-, the Queen of the Ozarks and
the metropolis of Southwest Missouri,
is located in the center of this country,
and it is a country that can feed. the
world if properly put to use. Now with
$4,000 people, cultured and prosperous.
supplied with the best colleges, schools
and churches the country affords, be-
ing the center of two gigantic railroad
| systems, the branches of which radiate
in all directions, thus making Spring
field as fine distributing point as could
be desired; with her large car shops,
giving employment to many hundreds
OF men: with her jobbing houses in diff
ferent lines, all doing heavy business :;
with her many mills and factories; with
her superb water works and well
equipped street railway; with her COM
mendabie hotels, banks and retail es-
Establishments, and the most elegant
opera house in the Southwest; with her
real estate prices low, and her sales on
a cash basis. Springfield, Mo-, certainly
has a grand future.
1t is fact that Springfield, Mo-, is
selling more real estate for cash to-day
than is being sold for cash in either
Minneapolis or st. Paul. 1t is a fact
that there are not five vacant dwelling
houses in Springfield, No., to-day.
Think of that for city of 10000 peo-
pie. New manufacturing industries are
locating there, motor lines are soon to be
built, government buildings are to be
erected at once, and another railroad
is building into the city.
Springfield, Mo-, is the most healthful
city in the Southwest, and why? Be-
cause it is situated on the highest point
OF the OZarks-1 ,495 feet above the gulf
level. The climate is grand; the win
tiers are mild and the summers are
cooler than they are in Minnesota.
0pTlnSHelQ. MO-, offers the best induce
ments to the capitalist, the manufact-
urer, the mechanic or the Spectator.
1t will pay you to take trip to
Springfield and see for yourself-it
costs but little-on the Sth of May, and
you will be surprised when you see
what prospects that city has for the fut-
ure.
