Ine Wellington Journal SAYS
FARMER near Caldwell who owns a cou-
pie OF sections of land which he bought
ana paid for on the installment plan
during the drouthy years when wheat
averaged only u or Is bushels to the

He had just sold the proceeds of a
900 acre wheat crop which averaged
A Is bushels to the acre He found
46 cent market and realized nearly
$4,000 for his heat. The question with
the farmer then was, what could he do
with his money?
The farmer visited all the principal
stores in the town and bought extrava-
gantly of everything. very little of
which he took home with him that ev-
ening for the reason that he didn't need
the stuff and had no place for it at
home.
He visited s, H. Horner's jewelry
store and purchased a S375 ruby ring
for his daughter and invested in a S225
diamond stud for himself He made
nearly every dollar of his present
wealth of this years wheat crop. and
viii SOW LOO acres of his own land and
three-quarters of a section of rented
land to wheat this fall.
We are informed that at present
this fortunate farmer, who is we'll
known by every person in the south
west part of the county, will in the
spring begin the construction of a $20,-
600 residence on Lookout Hill in East
Caldwell. one of the prettfest sites for
a dwelling to be found in the county.
