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 half drive over an excel
lent plank and shell road. Q y
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 sland can be obtained at re-
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present Glow
figures poor man can make regu-
lar payments on valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. II is an in
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, $65, $50, $35. Sec
ond choice, $25 $18. Third choice

choice, SIS. It must be remember
ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adjacent to
Dinsmore, containing from FIVE to
sixteen acres each, which ws 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 of
Florida to the Railroad and from
the Railroad to you.
o Truck farming around Dinsmore
would be at the door of two of the
greatest markets in the South. Let
every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy lot in
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson.
vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There are
eight passenger trains PEI day and
the round trip will only cost twen-
ty-fve cents. Trout creek, a large
streams passes right through the
vicinity, thus affording pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainage
and abundance of fish.

slip you. 1t is the very best chance
you will have to secure a good
piece of valuable property and such
startling prices.

/ 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 a dollar
and half to two dollars per day

A building boom has struck this town
and carpenters are in demand; yet every
body is crying ont "hard times, aud be
wailing the failure of crops. The fact is,
there never was so much building done
in any one season III this vicinity, as the
closing of this most Unfortunate Of years.
The four Welch Brothers after finishing
the new residence of James II. Jester last
month, have built large two-story dwell

brother just after the New Year comes in.

latter case the tongue struck young Con-

new residence for hilnselr


Aftersshnishing W. S. Dickerson's large
barn, Finicle 6, Wilson have been build
ing outbuildings and sheds on David Gov
erdale's farm, and will go from there ID
Benjamin Williams farm where a stock
and hay barn 4ox6o feet will be put up.
Clement Houston, of near Lincoln, is
building a dwelling on the farm he pur.
chased recently from Nathaniel Williams.
James Heavalow has also built new
barn, stable and carriage-house, and both
Samuel Fisher and Henry d. Mackliu
have made repairs to their residences.
Now this is a pretty fair record for
building in bad season for a town OF
only $50 inhabitants, and still our people
howl about poverty and financial depres-
sion. There is one good omen here, viz.
There are no public sales, or breaking up
of farmers, around here-such as we note
to be the case in neighborhoods that claim
to be more prosperous.
James Heavalow has purchased from
Esquire Warren twenty five acres of land
about I 4 miles from Ellendale, at $500
per acre.
John Watson purchased from David
Warren ten acres near the above for the
same price.
Mr.. John Prettyman, the merchant and
charcoal dealer, has bought 1000 cords
of wood Of Henry MaclSlin on the farm
near Lincoln; which Macklin recently
bought of Curtis S. Watson Of Milford.
Mr.. p. has also bought 900 cords of
Clement Houston on the Williams farm,
and for this reason wood chopping will be
lively this winter. No one need want for
the necessities while this work lasts.
S. E. Reed & Bro. have purchased of
VIM. Prettyman, of Milton, a large tract
of white oak timber near Reddens sta
ton, which they are having brought TO
their mill here and cut Into vessel timber
for various parties, including the ship
builders of Milford.
Our young folks are making great prep
arations for an elaborate entertainment
for Christmas, and propose to eclipse any
thing ever seen in this State. They will
compete with Barnum and his big ele-
phant, Carncross & Dixie, or any other
man. So everybody come and see and
laugh. It will only cost IS cents to see
all, and no side-shows nor postpone
ment on account of fweather--unless it be
a cyclone.
Our Sunday school will have Christ
mas tree and a general good time.
