Kimball Graphic: One Of the big
gest land deals ever made in this
part OF the state vas consumated at
Kimball last week when the Wolf
family disposed of their holdings Of
Buffalo county iands-or at least the
greater part Of them. The transaction
involved four full sections, or 2640
acres and the consideration was a lit
tie over $4,000 and practically a
cash deal. The purchase was made by
F. J.. Harrington Of Omaha. The tract
of land was owned by j. H. Wolf,
Adolph Wolf and Miss Dora Wolf.
About q section Of the land was taxi
en- by the Wolf family under the
homestead act. The other quarters
had been picked up from time to
time, ind at prices at which you can
guess. j. H. Wolf sold a quarter in
Buffalo county about five years ago
for an even $3.50 just a dollar an acre.
so that you can e the differences In
prices now and then. He has several
quarters left In Buffalo-as we ret
1t, he bought one after this big desi5
was made.
