IT LOOKED INNOCENT.
Iowa Farmer Discovers Mistake In
sianina "Ready" information Blanks.

Iowa Farmer Discovers Mistake In
Signing "Ready" information Blanks.
Special to Times Republican.
Jefferson, May ga few weeks ago
farmer in this locality received a let
ter from a northern Iowa real estate
Arm, asking him for certain informal
tion about his farm whether it is list
ed for sale with us or not the IN
formation was desired in just that
form, so that the real estate dealer
could file it for ready reference! The
Inference was that when customers for
land crowded the dealer so hard and
fast that he had no time to eat or sleep
the contract in this form would be so
ready that he could hurriedly snatch
It from the file and sell the farm dur
ing the space OF time that he would
have taken to hunt for the information
if it were not thus ready"
This ready part looked like the
important portion Of the blank sent
out, but it wasn't. The real essence
was contained in a few lines at the
bottom, which read innocently as fol-
lows:
please try to sfind purchaser for
my farm for advertising the same for
-1nonths. Upon fulfillment of
your part of the agreement, agree
to pay you commission OF so cents
per acre and to allow you whatever
sum in addition thereto the purchaser
may agree to pay.

..Signed

From careful reading of the
above it will be observed that all the
dealer agrees to do is to Advertise"
the farm. Having advertised it, he
has fulfilled his part of the contract
and the fifty cents per acre is due.
The method of advertising is not spe-
cific. He may do it by posting a no.
tice on tree in back wood-lot, or he
may cause a notice to be printed in the
chief daily paper in Timbuctoo. mas
much as there is really no object in his
selling the farm, the more obscure
mediums of advertising he used the
less apt he would be to be bothered
with customer. His commission was
sure in any case, sale or no sale.
The attorneys advised the man who
had signed this type of contract to
make the best settlement he could and
to err no more on this wise.
