GO WEST, SAID GREELEY,
BUT HE WAS ALL WRONG
Virginia Offers Every Attraction of
Fine Climate and Good Society
to Homeseekers.

Horace Greeley gave this advice some
forty years ago, but conditions have
materially changed since that time. The
present West, where land Is cheap. has
moved TO the North amid the cold and
vigorous climate of a long and severe
winter. and also a long way from civ
iiIization and market Now. the wise
would advise the children Of those who
took honest Horace's advice to go East
instead IF West. as there is without a
doubt far better opportunities to make
money and to enjoy life by buying
lands and making homes where land
can be purchased for the low price of
so to SIS per acre within ten to fifty
miles of Washington city, the Capital
of the Nation. where one will find a
congenial climate the year round with
good society and within reach Of the
best retail market in the country.
Such opportunities are now offered to
the buyer OF homes and farms within
easy reach of the National Capital.
Washington is growing rapidly with the
nation and the country. and these farms
within a radius of fifty miles-must
grow in value.
Many OF these farms have from cir
cumstances been neglected. The sons of
the owners in many cases have obtained
places under the Government and the
owners have grown old and not able

all can he sold in the Washington mar

turns to the owner; then, why go West.
which is q long distance from the COM
forts of life, but instead come East or

Capital. where the enjoyment of life
