Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1913-01-02

The farm described below is one
which the Journal believes to be
among the very best OF all of Iowa's
good farms, irrespective of price.
It consists of 269 acres located in
Ringgold County. 1t is less than
three miles from town of nearly
six hundred people Lying on two
good lines of railroad. 1t is in
the heart of the Blue Grass Belt,
which has a much greater advan-
tage thnn is generally supposed ov-
er central and northern Iowa, ow-
ing to the milder climate and lux
uriant pastures. The winter feed
ing season averages from three
to four weeks shorter than in Au+
dubon County, while stock IS pas
tured we'll into the winter, and oc-
casionally even clear through. 1t
follows that less grain is raised,
though the soil is exceptionally rich
that meat can be produc>'! much
more cheaply and consequently at
greater profit; and that farmers
make their money more easily than
with us. In addition u the above,
however, that region IS Icwa's ma
tural fruit belt and marvelously
productive of all varieties that can
be grown anywhere in the Middle
West.
RICHNESS OF THE SOIL
This place is a bottom farm, and
one of the richest ones to be found
in the entire corn belt Forty acres
of it are gently rolling, the re-
mainder being very ge lt'y sloping
bottom land, and all in high state
of cultivation. The corn yield this
year was eighty-fiNe bushels per
acre, while wheat produced more
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1913-01-02


than forty bushels. And last year,
in spite of the drouth, the corn crop
yielded sixty bushels per acre. The
fact is that it is farm from which
one may realize crop of sixty-fiua
to seventy bushels per acre forever
1t property handled for it comes
as near to having an inexhaustible
soil as any farm in the state OF
Iowa. At the present time, 100
acres are in grass, the remainder
being under peow.
FREE FROM FOUL WEEDS
The farm has been we'll taken
care of, and is clean of burs and
other foul weeds. In fact the
owner offers to reduce the price
one dollar per acre if bur can
be found on the entire farm of
269 acres. And what is more, a
most critical personal examination,
made in behalf of the Journal,
failed to reveal a single one.
IMPROVEMENTS MODEST
BUT GOOD.
The house is five room cottage,
finished inside in hard pine, and
in good condition. There is
smoke house adjoining it, and a
splendid brick cave. The barn ia
40x56, with hay loft, corn crib,
and granary built in. lOther out
buildings are fair And the place
is fenced and cross-fenced, the fen
ces being in good condition.
A SPLENDID WATER SUPPLY
In the farm yard is we'll, which
can not be pumped dry by the wind
mill attached In the pasune not
tar away is spring which has new
er failed within the memory OF
man. A small stream cuts through
one of the fields for about twenty
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1913-01-02

rods. And another stream APP
proaches the edge of another field,
touches 1T, and flows away again,
leaving an ideal watering place.
CUT BY A RAILROAD
The Burlington Railroad passes
through the farm but in such a
manner that no private crossing is
necessary at any point. Every field
can be entered at distance OF
about one fourth mile or less from
the farm yard, and without cross;
ing the railroad at any point except
once on the public highway. 1t is
a case where the railroad was no
disadvantage for it diverted
stream which formerly flowed
through the farm, and carried it
along the right of way.
THE PRICE AND TERMS
The price of the, farm is $1O5
per acre. The cash payment asked
by the owner is $4,000; but there
seems little doubt that deal can
be made for it by anyone who has
$4,000 In cash. and easy terms Sc
cured on the balance. And if the
buyer SO desires, the owner of
the farm offers to sell him the
stock now on the place, of which
there is quite a Lot, together with
all hay, and sufficient corn for feed
ing, and wait for his money for
same until the stock is sold. 1t ID
one OF the rare chances still open
in Iowa for man of moderate
means to secure a farm which will
make him rich. The fertility Of
the soil is Indicated by the fact
that the owner has standing Of
fer of six dollars per acre cash
rent for it.

have to worry themselves sick and
carry them victuals."
He got up and began to walk up and

the floor.

could both see that she was dressed
for dinner. Her fur coat YEAS open at
the neck, and she had only a lace scarf
over her head.

You haven't taken the dinner out to

Not yet" l replied. "Tillie hasn't

DISCOVERY COM IS
AFTER 5000 YEARS
Buffalo House Takes the Taste
Out Of Castor Oil

Since the earliest days of medicine
chemists have been trying to take the
taste ont of castor oil
The secret has at last been discovered
by Spencer Kellogg & Sons OF Buffalo, who
are among the largest producers aud re-
finers OF vegetable oils in the world.
They have removed the castor oil taste,
aud smell, too, purifying the oil and max
ing it better and more effective. Nothing
is added to it, nothing good taken out of it.
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is taste
Tess in the true sense. Even children take
it easily, for all the nauseating effect is
removed.
Sold now at all drug stores in 25c and
SOC sizes. Ask for Kellogg's Tasteless
Castor Oil by name, for there are several
preparations of castor oil, mixed and fla
vored, which are not tasteless and do not
act as well.
