critics in other. sections or Webster
county, is what real 'estate men who
have made a study Of the situation
are predicting for land in the next
three TO five years. In spite of the
fact that the price has been advancing
by leaps and bounds. there is no cessa-
ton in the legitimate demand The
number Of those who are selling their
high priced farms further east and
seeking investment in Iowa is almost
as great now as it was few years
back. when this movement started the
real raise in priCs of Webster county
farms. While there is not the amount
of purchase by option that there was
a couple of years ago, when land
gambling" was made business by a
considerable number of people. the
number of purchasers who want the
soil for homes and for working, are
as numerous. and this demind will con-
tinue until the value OF Iowa farms
is placed on par with those oI eqla!
producing power in Illinois and in the
other great farming states east where
high prices prevail.
