BIG LAND TRADE
Kansas Property valued at $4,000
Sold.

! The following IS taken from the Deca-
/ tur, Ill, Times:
/ Mrs. r. J. Brown, owner of the prop
erty on North Water street known as the
/ Gallagher block, has traded the same to
Mrs. NJ e Ellis of Kansas City for 400
acres of improved farming land not far
from Wichita The deal has been on Tor
several weeks and the contract for the
trade was signed up several days ago.
All that is now necessary 10 complete il
is the passing OF the deeds. This will be
done just as soon as the abstracts can be
made out and presented to the parties TO
the trade. The abstract for the Gala
CHER block is all ready and the papers
from Kansas are expected in few days.
The deal Will be consummated Monday
or Tuesday and the building on North
Water street Will then pass into the hands
Of Mrs Ellis. The consideration named
is SIS. 900. ard the deal IS one Of the big
gest that has been made for q number Of
years.
THE land taken by Mrs. Brown is all
improved, and before the trade was en-
tered into her husband. DR.. Brown. sent
two tenants on the Gallagher farms in
this county to make an investigation.
The reports that they brought back were
entirely satisfactory. a portion OF the
land il in wheat. and according TO the
government reports the wheat crop in
Kansas never promised better than st
does now. The crop there IS in better
condition than anywhere in the country.
The Macon county men who examined the
land were 50 favorably Impressed with Il
that they asked 70 he given a chance to
occupy a portion Of it. one OF the farms
is devoted 70 stock and consists Of CD
acres, with good improvements in the
way Of buildings. II is the intention Of
DR.. and Mrs. Brown 20 go 70 Kansas in
the course Of a few weeks and make
personal investigation Of the property
Some time ago q similar trade was on
foot but IL was never consunmsted. Be
fore IL reached the point Of exchanging
deeds the matter fell through and then
the deal with Mrs. Ellis was taken up.
The Kansas land which passes 20 the
ownership of the Decatur parties IS now
occupied by tenants. Mrs. Ellis. the for
mer owner. was not able 70 give this
class OF property her attention and was
desinous OF getting hack % Illinois where
she could invest her owninEs in such
share that she could look after them
herself.
