stormy session Oscar stole away and
made the purchase. The quarrel was
renewed Sunday, and the fathers age
increased because the boy had diso-
beyed him. Mrs. Johnson took her

left for the home of Oscar Larson, who
lives a few blocks from the Johnson

The investor who put his money in

Now nothing in the vicinity OF Center
Vile can be bought for less than $50 an
acre. An eighty-acre tract near that
place was recently sold for $3.50 per
acre, the seller making a profit Of a
little over $4,000 in six years. Another
deal in Turner county gave a profit OF
