AN ADVERTISING TRICK FOR
WESTERN FARMERS.
Real Estate Agents" Go After
Men with Land for Sale and
Reap Rich Harvest.

A smooth scheme for separating
farmers from their money has been
worked with much success in South
Dakota. An oily CRATER calls on a
farmer and makes bid for his land
The figures are absurdly low at first,
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-
tion is not contained in n contract
that the farmer signs.
In few days he receives copy OF
an ad and not over.courteous demand
for money. 1t Is said that twenty
two agriculturists were caught with
this bait in Brown County and that
one Of them gave up $32O. Others de-
clare hotly that they will not pay but
they will make n fight in the courts.
