is too great for comfortable existence.

this direction. The rainy season
lasts practically from November to
April. The summers are bright and
warm, the heat being always temper
ed by the ocean breezes. No more
healthful region can be found, and
the low price at which these cut-over
lands can be secured, makes this a
very attractive proposition to those
who have experience in this line Of
work, and it offers less difficulty to in
experienced persons than probably
any other branch of agriculture or

Cut-0ver Lands Invite Settl, ment in
Western Washington.

Few people realize the rapidity with
which the forests of this country are
disappearing. The lumbermen of
Maine, Michigan and Minnesota, either
have sought new fields of operation or
very soon will have to do so. They
are turning to to the immense pine
forests of Idaho or the timbered slopes
of the Cascade moutaius, which at one
time seemed to offer an absolutely in
exhaustlble supply. Even these for
ests, however, are beginning to recede
from the shores of Puget SOUND, before
the advance of the lumberman's axe.
Already vast tracts of land once Gov
cred with a dense growth of timber
are now stripped of almost all their
merchantable trees. These cut-over
lands are enriched by the decaying
vegetation of centuries, and cannot be
excelled for fertility. True, the stumps

Great Bargain IN Stations.

A new import alton just arrived
March 9TH. My new importation of
Percheron and Belgian stations
consists of a fine lot of big boned,
heavy stations that are the type
required to breed to big, heavy
mares. The Percherons are all
blacks. The Belgians are all blacks,
roans, bays, ana dark, rich chest
nuts in color.
My desire is to sell all these horses
within the next thirty days, and
will sell them all at prices ranging
from 500 to $11OO each. l am offer
ing the farmers the greatest oppor-
tunity that they have ever had to
secure Dig, fine, first-class horses at
SO low prices. They are coming
threes, tours and fives IN ages, and
every horse is sound, and all will
be guaranteed IS per cent breeders.
Any farmer who has some good
mares can afford to come and buy
one of these big colts and do out
side breeding enough to pay for him
in one season.
Every horse that I have ever
sold to this date has been salts
factory, a record that no other i'm
porter can show.
Part neeoing stations, please
come and see me.
