We have been asked to present the
Torrens land system and we here pro-
duce the important parts. The Tor
rens land system that is coming into
popular favor does away with the ex-
animation of titles, absolutely remov-
ing every cloud. An abstract of title
is not necessary, and the large ex-
pense attached thereto is saved. In
case of transfer the examination of
the title is not necessary. When the
system is once adopted it is very
easy matter to place mortgage or
transfer title.
Our old friend James r. Chandler
who has been resident of Audubon
county long before Audubon was q

nearly every slough-left US, and went
to the coast country Of California. He
writes home that he is well pleased
with the country, its people and their
ways of living. He went to work for
brick firm few days after he ar
rived there. Jim is the engineer of
the plant We shall mics Mr.. and Mrs.
Chandler very much from our gather
ings but we trust that they may find
his new field of labor very pleasant.
