| Iowa Falls, Nov. "a few days ago
IL deal was closed whereby q farm OF
100 acres in Franklin county was sold
for $4,000, or at the rate of $3.50 per
acre. 1t is, of course, q fine farm,
well improved, good land, and close
to good town. Many, however,
whose attention has been called to this
with the remark: He can never make
the place pay interest on the invest
ment and the purchaser anything for
his work. Land for farming purposes
is not worth $3.50 All acre"
In answer to this the owner OF the
farm in question might reply il he
chose, that an income of $50 per acre
! from farm land in that locality this
year is not at all uncommon. Much
of it has yielded far greater returns;
but using those figures the income
from a quarter section would figure up
5 per cent interest on Il total invest
ment of $4,000, would give the owner
a salary OF $1,000, furnish money to
pay the taxes, hire a good man eight
months in the year, and setting aside
$400 to cover the annual cost of re-
pairs and improvements, would still
provide for $500 dividend or surplus
that would take care of an occasional
unfavorable year, or defray some un
usual or unexpected item of expense

and no sympathy need be wasted on
them because they have paid too much
tor their land.
One feature that is entering more
and more into the buying of farms is
their desirability in the mind of the
purchasers. as homes. Not many men
are buying. farms in this part ofsthe
country expecting to make a profit off
them by renting them to some one
else. Occupation or at least frequent
personal oversight is necessary to
successful farm ownership on high
priced land. An extreme illustration
Of this in this vicinity is that of a
240-acre tract of good land that for
three successive years has not pro-
duced single dollar Of revenue for it's
nonresident owner. Timothy and

Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three

and take tsaspoOnful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and. being
