Are you surprised that Whitewater

good town and that is what White
water is getting to be.
An addition to the town mas been
plated by Grand Junction man, be-
cause most of the present town is
located on railroad land and sooner
or later the town will have to be
moved off of it and he has anticipat-
ed that time and has secured a fine
piece of adjoining land has plated it
and what is more is selling the lots,
to use a homely expression like hot

The new addition is little north

Joins it. No finer location for homes

bound to be winner. But you Will
answer at what price are these lots
selling? Does someone want to make
it all? No indeed. those lots are
selling at price that anyone can
make purchase of one and afford to
hold it for several years. You can
buy one for that boy or girl of yours
and in a few years there'll be enough
in that lot or two or three of them to
send him away to school. Lots are
selling for $40 each.

has sold more than hundred lots
