INCREASED PRICES
FOR FARMING LAND

Bristol, Tenn. Jan. 25. The increas-
ed price paid for good farming land
from month TO month indicates how
well investors think OF Virginia and
Tennessee soil. Many farms have been
sold in Southwest Virginia in recent
years for handsome, prices. An ex-
ample of the high value of Southwest
Virginia lands was seen this week WI hen
a farm of .12 acres in Rich valley,
Smyth county, ten miles from railroad
accommodations, sold for .S32, 900,
which was at the rate of $50 per acre.
This farm was part OF the estate Of
the late DR.. II. E. Edmondson of Bris-
tol, and was sold TO Richard George
and sons of Broadford, Va.
In recent months many Virginians
have purchased farms in East Tennes-
see, several important purchases hav-'
ing been made by them in the fertile
Sweet water valley. There have been
so many changes in ownership in that
valley that revolution in farming
methods is expected, new men having
settled there from different states.
