The question is often asked as
to the reason for the apparent
discrepancy between the land
values shown by the published
real estate transfers and the
values placed on lands now being
sold. The transfers show land
sold from $1,000 to $4,000 per
quarter while land ordinarily is
selling at from twenty dollars per
acre up. If one stops to consider
the matter the reason is obvious.
The crop contract has been one
of the most popular plans for sale
of land and a large amount was
sold
land was cheap. These contracts
are, many of them, just maturing
and the transfers show as of this
date instead of years ago when
the sale was made. As a matter
of fact, as prices are now, land is
cheap at twenty dollars per acre.

"Kernals' Brewer of the
Forum seems to be determined
to stir up a county seat removal
fight in this county. Comment
ing on the recent fire in the conrt
house at Sherbrooke he intimates
that some of the other towns of
the county would not have been
sorry had the building burned
and that it's obstruction would
have precipitated a fight for the
removal of the county seat.
There may be some truth in that
too. However we are willing to
submit to the wishes Of the peo-
pie in the matter when the prop
er times comes.
