BOUGHT CHEAP RANCH.
Sam Ash Pays $500 for 160 Acres
Near WalluIa.

One hundred and sixty acres lying
on the hills this side of Wallula and
known as the old Howard ranch, was
sold at sheriff's sale this afternoon to
Sam Ash of Wallula for $500. Claims
against the ranch, arising through
foreclosure proceedings amounted to
nearly $1,000, so creditors will receive
about 25 cents on the dollar as a re-
suit of today's sale. Years ago the
land was capable Of raising 25 bu-
shells to the acre, but the place
has not been farmed for long time
Two bidders appeared in the field
when Deputy Haviland offered the
place for sale at o'clock this after
noon. Mr.. Ash sheepishly bid $780,
He was promptly raised $50 by anoth-
er Wallula citizen. Mr.. ASH retired to
consult his attorney and finally bid
$500. This was too much for the other
man and he refused to raise Mr.
Ash and he was awarded the place.
