About two years ago [ moved to the country
40 minutes ride on the Seattle lnterurban
from 18th and Pacific and began to improve
a 15-acre tract.
The middle five acres in flowers and lawns
beauty and utility. Last seasons sale or
sweet peas was 100000 bossoms-off Is rows,
10 feet long) The five acres on either side OF
the flower garden in berries and vegetables q
7 find the middle five acres is all use to adj
vantage-that flowers require all my atten-
tion-that the soil is rich and productive
that it requires too much hired help to care
for more.
So have decided to divide the other two five
acre tracts into gardens, some 5Ox2OO, some
5Ox168 and have priced them low they
will get into other hands before the berries
rpen again.
$3.50 per garden corners $3.50; easy terms if
required. Each garden faces a 6O-foot
road. This price is the equivalent of $l37.5O
per lot 25x1OO for the 5Ox2OO tracts and a
little more for the 50x168. ~
Think of that price and notice that 1t is but 20
minutes from the business center; also think
of the soil and the berries in full bearing.
COME OUT SUNDAY Or any other day and
look at them if you have desire to cut your
living expenses in two and en- joy country
life. It's fine. I know, for I am living right
on these tracts. 4

There are but 40 of these tracts so every family

FRANK GOTCH is
NOW THE CHAMPION

CHICAGO. Sept Frank Gotch
won over Hackenschmidt In their
wrestling match this afternoon.
In describing the match Villa m
Muldoon, who IS a veteran wrestler,
said over she wires last night. after
giving a detailed account of the
match:
"Gotch secures a crotch hold and
half Nelson. Hack, in his effort to
escape from the half Nelson, slipped
Gotch's forearm over his head and
failed to recover himself In time to
avoid Gotchs rush forward. which
planted both his shoulders flat on tho
canvas.
Hack. seems to be a poor wrest
Ter when things are going against
him. He seems discouraged. hurry
ing off to his dressing room, while
Gotoh remains in his corner receiv-
ing congratulations. II looks very
much now as II Gotch had a pretty
sure thing"
Again. in the second fall. Muldoon
says:
'Gotch secures leg hold and
brings Hack. TO the carpet with the
greatest OF ease. Gotch Is certainly
the superior wrestler. Gotch tried for
the toe hold and secured IT. Hack
gives up He rolls to his back vol
unfairly for the last fall.
There Is no question now as te
which Is the superior at the wrest-
ling game. Hack, takes courage and
tenacity, The poorest novice will,
make better struggle when chances
are against him than Hack. Hack. is
all fight when he has an even chance
or something better, but when II
comes to getting a shade the worst
OF 1t he Immediately surrenders."
