These lots are from $500 to
1926 in price and the terms are
reasonable. They can be pur-
chased as low as 500 down and
monthly payments running
over period of from one to
two years. No interest is
charged on the deferred pay
ments and free title is given
to the property, insuring the
purchaser against loss.
AS soon as our plans ma
terialize, or possibly sooner,
we expect to make a material
advance in the price Of the few
remaining unsold lots; and
when we place the additional
surveys on the market the price
of the lots will be more in
keeping with the values. 1t is
for that reason that we urge an
early purchase of this proper
ty, for either investment or
home. There is no reason why
you should not avail yourself
|of the opportunity presented.

lonely imprisonment during the six

his memory and judgment. Through

been worthy of sincere respect and

dignified enthusiasm and at it's face

From Montclair, n. j., comes q dis
patch in regard to a collie dog named
sammy, the property Of one Ludwig
carlson. that is a self educated tenor
soloist probably without equal in dog
musical circles. Every morning when
the bell in st. Johns Episcopal
church begins ringing Sammy takes
up a position hard-by and proceeds
with 4 tuneful accompaniment. He
blends ,nusicianly voice with the
deep not of t.. bell and is always
In exact tone with the metallic sounds
which issue from the belfry. At noon
the collie makes tracks for a lumber
plant in the neighborhood, where he
accompanies in perfect harmony the
whistle that sounds the midday hour.
sammy also accompanies with equal
tactlity the town curfew hell at Q
o'clock in the evening. Those who
have studied the dogs performances
say that in the beginning his vice
was somewhat harsh and not infrc-
auen,,y cas-. in the wrong key. but
that with tireless practice and dog
like devotion he has rounded into an

eettlers Fast Driving Them Away and
Prediction Is Made That Ten Years
VIII See the End of Immense
Droves in Western Country.

Lincoln, Neb.--"Ten years from now
will see the practical extinction of the
big cattle herds from the ranges of
the west. The sheep herders will lin.
ger few years longer. but eventually
they also must CO." This is the pre-
diction of Soran Munck, who raises
thousands of sheep on the ranges of
South Dakota and Montana, who is
visiting In Nebraka. where he former
ly lived. The cattle men, whose herds
not very long ago roamed at will over
more than half of western Nebraska,
have been driven across the border
to make room for the small stock
raiser and the farmer. In turn they
will have halted in eastern South Da.
kota, Wyoming and Montana, but year
by year they have been driven farther
ton OF short time, in the opinion OF
the herders themselves, when their
domination will end. Wyoming will
probably be the stamping ground
longer than any of her sister states,
because the topography there is more
natural for grazing and the profits
larger. but the stay will be limited.
One of the things that works against
the cattle men, even In Wyoming, Is
the frequency of feuds between them
and the sheep men. Cattle men, as a
rule, 1t is asserted, have been the ag-
gressors in these outbreaks and have
forfeited sympathy. Dozens of flock
masters have been killed in the
clashes between the opposing forces
and thousands Of sheep wantonly
slaughtered. The cattle men have
their defenders in those who say they
were the first on the ground and the
sheep men are interlopers Sheep, 1t
is asserted will live and thrive where
cattle would starve. and there can be
no peace where the two attempt to
live In the same community Stock
men from the range country, who
spend part of the winter months in
Nebraska cities and towns, say the
recent trial and conviction of the five
cattle men charged with the killing of
three sheep herders, the slaughter of
the sheep and burning OF the camp.
