FOR SAL f.

The Illinois Central Railroad Company
are Offering lands at so low price that
it seems absured TO tell what they Are
capable of prOduc ng, yet it is fact that
the crops from apple orchards ale yield
ing from $500 70 $500 per acre. There
are many farmers. fruit growers, who
are realizing each year from $3.50 to $500
per acre for their fruit and early yegeta-
bles and some who are realizing $1,000
per acre. These of cOure are successful
men of business, who study how to do it.
Do you want the same chance to make
money? You can have it by going into
this country and buying some of the
same lands from the IllinOis Central Rail
road Company and by applying the abil
ity you have in business manner to
their improvement and cultivation, you
can have in a short time as valuable land
as that of a successful fruit on the line of
this railroad who said the other day.
l have brought my land to sucl high
state of cultivation that no one can Luy
it from me for $500 per acre, as can net
800 per acre off it every year.
Most of the lands offered for sale by
The Illinois Central Railroad Company
can be made to produce the same results.
They lie along the line of this railroad at
a distance of from 3 TO Is miles and the
country is traversed by many other rail-

FOR THE STATE CAPITAL.

Dear Sir:--I left your city, April
6 b, for St. Louis, for the purpose
of going up higher in the field OF
science, but was disappointed, as
the meeting was called for that date.
[ however, remained over with Rev.
III. c. Burton, the sub-presiding
elder for the district, who had just
returned from the work; having
been absent two weeks. At Carmi
he baptized IA persons. From there
he went to Shawneetown and found
Rev. Moss on the rocks, putting and
blowing. He has a hard charge,
but is doing the best he can. At
Harrisburg, he found Rev. J. w.
Tiff moving slowly. He had just
returned from Mound City, where
he had been assisting Rev. Price
with his revival. I commenced
work at Metropolis, where 1 found
Rev. Harvey at his post, with the
work moving along nicely, being
aided by Rev. P. Thurman; they
had Is accessions. At Brooklyn,
| found Rev. F. E. Clark, also en-
gagged in revival. At Mound City
[ found Rev. Green Price meeting
with spiritual success, but the
church is much in need of renova-
ting and repairs. AT Cairo l found
DR.. Sheen moving along gradually,
and almost ready to move into one
of the finest parsonages in the Illi-
nois or Iowa Conferences. His
church, inside and out has the ap
pearance of new spring dress, and
is surrounded with water on either
side. closed my quarterly confer
ence with Rev. J Fl. Rhodes at Villa
Ridge, and after transacting other
business, | mounted horse and
went ont home with brother Moses
Meeks, one of the best farmers in
the county. | re-mounted "Mamie, +"
a very fine nag, and went across the
county to Hodges Park. There I
found Rev. w. Cole, moving slowly
along with his work. Spent the
Sunday with him; had a good time,
with about 25O persons present. He
has much opposition, but is meeting
with success. At this point [ sue
ceeded in obtaining two subscribers
for this paper. P. &C.
