SOME Fine HORSES.

We have a String OF western horses
now on pasture at the Hardscog place,
Joining the city on the north, which
are, believe, the highest quality bunch
ever brought into the county They are
high class horses, and will bring good
prices in our market as soon as bro
ken.
We have sold several head from the
drove to some of the best citizens of
Ottumwa for carriage horses. These
horses have both size and quality.
They are South Dakota horses, raised
on pastures, and are comparatively
gentle. They have more style and fin
lsh than the average run horse.
They may be seen at the Hardscog
place until next Thursday, when they
will be taken to Hedrick and sold on
Friday, the eth. at auction. Six
months time will be given, If desired.
See me or call me up if interested.
Our next regular sale will be on
Friday, August 8. Horses Of the right
sort sold very high at our sale last
Friday, $3.50 being the top price for a
fine draft horse.
Now that's about horses. The rest
OF this isn't. You saw that Canada
letter l published a week ago. Well
1t may have sounded strange, but 1t
was all true. I have been right on the
ground and over the country referred
to. l repeat what I have said before.
l believe 1t the latest greatest invest
ment opportunity in real estate on the
American continent.
If did not think it, I would not
say so. It's just as easy and more
convenient for me to handle lands in
some of the western states, but my
conscience" stands in the way. They
have never had a crop failure in west
ern Canada, and with the wonderful
influx of settlers they are getting from
the states, the steady advance in land
values is just as certain as anything
In human experience can be.
l can get you a round trip ticket to
Regina, Canada, for S25. How many
can go next Monday? All ask is that
you lay aside prejudice long enough
to go and see for yourself.
It's my judgment that in five years
we will look back in wonder and
amazement at the prices land can be
had at in that country now.

Celery brought considerably over
$2,000,000 into Kalamazoo last year,
directly or Indirectly. This is an i'm
pressive statement, as, being an agri-

part of it is sent away in the purchase
of raw material as is the case in the
different manufacturing industries.
The Wholesale Business.
The business of dealing at wholesale
in celery and shipping it is in the
hands Of native Americans for the most
part, although there are several nota-
BILE exceptions. In all, fifty firms are
engaged in it. The amount shipped out
Of the city the past year ran up into
the millions of dozen stalks. Twenty
and thirty, not infrequently fifty, tons
are shipped daily during the eight
months Of the year constituting the
celery shipping season. The procession
of stacked-up wagons to the railway
stations is the wonder of strangers in
the city. Four or Ave extra express
cars are brought in daily to enable the
different roads to care for the noun.

shipment. The lumber for the boxes
used in packing the product alone cost
SIS, 900 last season. The stamps pur-
chased by these dealers for sending out
enormous quantities Of advertising
matter every season and the number
of money orders received in payment
for small consignments contribute to
making the Kalamazoo postof1ice the
third in the state in the gross amount
of business done and proportionate rev.
enue to the government.
