ACRE COST $6.25 IN 1866;
IS WORTH $175 IN 1913

Eldora, Dec. 10.-The Haas farm of
100 acres in Grundy county, six miles
east Of here, has changed owners. The
original purchaser paid 1925 per acre
for the land in 1866. Now he has dis
rosed of the property for $4,000. That
looks like good business. or course
that tells only small part of the
story. 1t would be interesting to know
what that farm has yielded In the At
years that Mr. Haas owned 1T, and
how much in addition to the $2S,000 he
has made out of it. 1t tells, however,
more of the grand development Of the
state Of Iowa than ould be laboriously
dug ont of a bulky volume.
