j. g. Ruth and Il. w. Mccain Pur-
chase Real Estate and Insurance

j. c. Ruth and E. w. Mccain this
week purchased the real estate and
insurance business formerly conduc-
ted by Price & Reed under the firm
name of The Pullman Land Co. The

same but several changes will be
made in the office rooms. The front
oftice, which has heretofore been
used as the main office, will be con-
verified into an up-to-date reception
room, while the business will be
transacted in the rear office.
Both of the purchasers are we'll
known in Pullman, and the Herald
predicts for them a large business in
their line. Mr.. Ruth came to Pull
man from the East about year ago.
and since that time has engaged in
the real estate business, his offices
having been in the First National
bank building. He is a real estate
man of wide experience, having been
in that business about ten years be-
fore coming to the Palouse country
Mr.. Mccain has for many years
engaged in the hardware business
in Pullman and is in close touch with
the conditions of the Palouse cOun-
try His wide acquaintance and
knowledge of farm conditions will
prove a valuable asset to the new
company.
