The Whittier Bros. have been camp
Ing about Raymer most of the time the
past week. We see them start back
to Sterling and then when we turn
around We see them coming back with
new bunch of land seekers. The fact
is Raymsr dirt looks mighty good to
the average land seeker these days and
il Is about the best bet that Gun be
found for good safe investment.
A lady stepped into the Office the
