Orlando Reporter: Every young man
working on salary should secure for him
self at once a little tract of five or ten acres
OF land, and then year by year put improve
ments upon it as his income, or rather his
savings, VIII admit. A five acre lot planted
in grapes and oranges would be the best
kind OF savings bank To own such a
place would encourage a sense of indepead-
ence, which would make the young man a
more valuable citizen. In a few years the
income from it would amount to far more
than his present earnings. Buy now while
land is cheap.
