POT OF ASHES IS FOUND

For North Dakotan rs Shown
by Western Dispatch.

Another North Dakota "farme has
found that the pot attached to. the
lower end Of the rainbow contains
not gold, but ashes; not future hopes
but q disappointment and loss. A re-
cent issue of the Melrose, Ore, Press
is quoted as follows:
"Alleging that he wal hoodwinked
as t climate and soil conditions. quail
ity and values of soils, and earning
opportunities, VIM. F. Plaman. OF Nc
Kenzie, n. D., has flied an action for
$4,000 damages in the circuit court
here against the Southern Oregon Or
chards company, which in June. 1910.
sold him nineteen acres of Melrose Or
chards. Plaman says the land cost
the company from $3.50 to $40 per
acre; but that under false representa-
ton. inveigled him into going into q
purchasing agreement at $3.50 an
acre, on which he paid $4,000 down.
70 make this payment he says, and
to pay the expenses of himself and
family in coming here, he mortgaged
his $4,000 farm in North Dakota, for
$1,000, and he is about to lose this on
a foreclosure.
among other things which Pla-
man says the company told him was
that the land at Melrose would yield
in h apple crops an average profit
of $791 an acre for seven consecutive
years, that a railroad line was being
built past the place and that the lands
in the ne~ighborhood were advancing
in price as high as $3.50 an acre. Up
on personal investigation he says he
found these assertions to be gross
falsehoods and same location could be
bought for not owe $25 an acre"
