= We beg to announce that Mr.. j. r.
Waters, recently with the c.. c. Samson
Land Co., Of St. Paul, will have charge
of the North Dakota Farm Land De-
.partment of this company.
Mr.. Water is a pioneer in the farm
land business and won his spurs here in
the Red River Valley and Northern
Minnesota. -
Our North Dakota business has grottn
to such proportions as to necessitate a
separate branch with corps Of ex-
perienced men to handle the business.
North Dakota is now marketing the
greatest crop in her history, and land
values were never such good invest-'
'ment as they are today.
. Our business has already shown the
effect and with our new connections
that Mr.. Waters brings to us, places us
in a position to give investors and land
seekers THE BEST THINGS THAT
THERE ARE GOING IN FARM
/ LANDS.
We operate in the famous Red River
Valley and along the main line of the
Great Northern, and its branches, from
Grand Forks to Minot, undoubtedly the
best developed and richest agricultural
district that the sun shines on.
We have land to sell or trade. Write
us if you are interested.
Kent Realty & Investment Co. !,
WHAT WOULD YOU THINK or
| -. $500 THIS? sei
: As the foregoing announcement
would indicate, we have a, few things
that we do not think anybody else can
touch. If you do not believe it, write
us about half section of land in
Grand Forks county in the vicinity Of
Grand Forks city, at $3.50 per acre
(the printer has not made mistake
in these igures), this is right, $12.50-
we know it is worth $22, but if taken
within thirty days we will make good
on this offer. We can arrange terms
to suit purchaser. This will bear per-
sonal investigation.
