but by degrees are raised as high as
$50 an acre, and the farmer consents.
Then the visitor explains that he is
only an agent, but that he can sell the
land at the price named II the owner
will agree to pay for advertising at
the rate of fifty cents an acre. The
agent" promises orally that the ad-
vertising money will not be payable
until the land is sold, but this stipula-
ton Is not contained in a contract
that the farmer signs.
In few days he receives a copy OF
an ad and not over-courteous demand
for money. IL is said that twenty.

this bait in Brown County and that
