THE WESTERN METHODS,
An Advertisement of New Jersey
Farms Commented Upon.

The editor of the Investor, a weekly
trade journal published in Los Angeles,
CAL, got hold Of a Philadelphia paper
the other day which contained one of d.
l.. Risley's advertisements of South
Jersey farms, and after quoting the ad-
vertisement he criticizes it in this wise:
In the advancement OF this cult and the
methods used to attract public attention. every
form OF adver tising has been restored to, from
the cheap ordinary handful to the illustrated
and costly magizine article, AMI the average
citizen of Southern California is inclined to the
opinion that the booming has been always done
on a scientific basis.
Now whether it is that the real estate man is
losing his cunning or not we cannot say, but
there is evidence that the far East has borrowed
from and improved upon the methods OF this
Eden OF the West, as the poet Kereheval used to
call it. Here is advertisement which. out to
set the real estate sharps hereabouts in pensive
mood for week to come; here is prospect
that surpasses nything we remember in Southern
California. Even the struggling Herald is thrown
in the cold shade. Its offer to give away prairie
lots at the rate OF $3.50 an acre, half ra- h. is a
steal, by the side OF the inducement ofIered by
the advertiser whom We have quoted. 4 FIVE
acre poultry and truck farm for dollar a week,
and paid up say in two years, is a scheme that
the real estate men here have had no doubt Of.
