AS TO IOWA LAND.
ICorwith Hustler.l

lSol w ibll IidSIiCi.J
Some of the best informed land men
are of the belief that there is about as
much money to be made in Iowa real
estate as anywhere else. Never before
has there been such a demand for land
in this section of Iowa nor have there
ever been such fancy prices paid.
Farmers who have sold their 5000 acre
land in southern Iowa and Illinois are
migrating to northern Iowa, where as
vet such prices do not prevail. They
are nearly all looking for first class i'm
proved farms. They are too impatient
to spend a year or two more building
and thing on unimproved farms for
their purpose is to start raising corn
Immediately to get more money to buy
more land.
From the moment a good crop was
assured here this fall the price of good
farms jumped $40 an acre. This in
crease is unusual but there is a steady
increase yearly, an acre. ranging in
price from 50 to IS and it is this fact
which counterbaiances the small return
in rent which the average absent land
lord receives
This steady rise is making fortunes
for land owners without raising hand.
A man buys 100 acre farm today for
$40 an acre and tomorrow sells for $S4
Another man bought 240 acre farm,
paving nothing down and three years
afterwards sold for $50, SIS an acre
more than 1t cost him. Tom Morris.
near Humboldt, sold a $50 acre farm
recently for 800 an acre; two years
ago he bought it for $50.
The average price for well-improved
farms is between $50 and 500 an acre
at present. When James j. Hill, of the
Great Northern. made the statement a
few years ago that such lands would be
worth s400 and $500 and acre in the
next twenty or twenty five years he
was laughed at. But it is time to take
notice. Inside of ten years, so those
who are in a position to know, land in
northern Iowa will be selling for from
$3.50 to $500 an acre.
Some of the shrewdest land dealers
are gradually acquiring section after
section of Iowa land, while we'll in
formed farmers say that the man who
doesn't keep his money in land is in
deed foolish, for there is no other in
vestment that pays so well.

HusKrNG TYNE.
Hampton Chronicle.J

Farmers are complaining because
even at to cents a bushel they are
unable to get sufficient forces to husk
their corn. And there are perhaps, here
and there, farmers who will spend a
few days in town complaining that the
lazy town fellows do not want to work,
and that the corn ought to be husked,
instead OF getting out into the fields
themselves. The inventor has relieved
the farmer Of much irksome toll.
1t is generally understood that husk-
ing corn IL NO picnic. and The man
who makes his s. q day husking corn
has earned every cent OF It. He has
banded more than three tons of corn.

We must say that the Golfers article
is strong imputation against the good
faith of the secretary of the interior,
but we must also hay that, to our
mind, as to that of the president. it is
not proof. And we must call attention
to the fact that the president had be-
fore him the explanatory statements
of Mr. Ballinger and his subordinates,
while Golfers gives us merely the
CLAWS side. In other words, we are
content for the present to accept Mr..

A Protection to Consumers.

Has it ever occurred to our readers
that the public endorsement of com
modify is the surest form of protection
that can he offered the consumer? The
consumer is the final Judge Of the merit
of a product, and ii consumers con.
denim commodity, no amount OF adj
vertising that misrespresents the com
modify can build a permanently sue
cessful business. No manufacturer
can afford To risk his reputation by
public statements regarding the quail
lty Of his product that is not pr oven by
the goods themselves
Products which are not meritOrious
cannot he advertised successfully. The
manufactures whose claims of quality
are backed by really good products can
safely and protitably advertise with the
knowledge that his goods will give
satisfaction to the consumer.
The dealers i'm our community who
are OH the lookout for the best inter
ests of their customers are not slow to
take advantage of well known adver
tised lines and add their endorsement
to that of the manufacturer whose
goods have met the approval of CON
sinners.
