Restricted Property

200 feet from the Steel Corporation prop

are 80 feet wide on 80-foot bouevards.
This property is highly restricted, high and
level and stands any kind of an investigation.
The Detroit times., 1917-02-17
The Early Birds

Some of your fellow citizens, believing that
the United States Steel Corporation wouldn't
tolerate any false representations TO be made,
invested money and have already made some
nice returns Their investments in some places
doubled in value Investigation will prove this
statement.
The Detroit times., 1917-02-17
See For Yourself

nJIBWAY will be an industrial town. We will
need the small man and the big man, and
those who invest their money in the early stage
of the game will profit by it.
The small man with moderate means some
times cannot afford to make a big first payment
to buy property, and therefore very many times
the opportunity is denied him to take his part
and profit at the same time when the more for
tunate investors are able to purchase.
The Detroit times., 1917-02-17
There is Still Time
to Profit

Come into my office and buy an option and
go over and look the property
If you are satisfied with your investigation,
the option money will be included in your first
monthly payment If you are not satisfied
your option money will be refunded to you
IMMEDIATELY.

expenses from you until you sign your contract

ter?

1t will not pay to keep hens
this winter unless they are good
layers, because they are only
machines consuming feed and
producing eggs. Weak un-
healthy Lens will likely literally
eat their heads off" They are
not good machines and can not
produce eggs economically, while
good strong, healthy fowls will
undoubtedly produce enough
eggs to pay well for their care
and for the grain which they
consume. Cullout the poor fowls
and send them to the butcher or
to the family table. Keep the
good layers. Eggs are high and
will go higher.

We are CHASING cotton every
day and have two government
classers most of the time, and
will gladly serve you.
When cotton was selling at 20
cents | advised the farmers to
hold and they would get %. When
it got to y | advised to hold for
30. Cotton reached the 30 cents
mark but dropped back little.
Do not rush your cotton on the
market. The cotton crop is very
snort, and ] believe cotton will be
selling at 40 cents before another
crop Is made. OF course the
highest price will not be reached
until the bulk of the cotton is out
of the hands of the farmer Last
year the farmers sold their crop
at an average of less than 20 cents
but by June following it reached
q cents. Remember this.

Waste In Holding Hogs

A loss of live weight of hogs
and waste of feed result from
the practice of purchasing local
hogs in small lots and holding
them in local stockyards until a
carload shipment is collected, &C.
cOrding to specialists of the Uni
ted States Bureau of Markets
They point out that at this and
other seasons when runs are
light, it often takes local buyers
four or five days to assemble
enough small lots for carload
AS facilities for feed ana water.
ing are inferior in small yards,
the hogs make no further gains
on their feed and often suffer ac-
tual loss of i've weight Local
buyers, therefore, would do well
to specify certain day for the
delivery of lots from the various
farms and load and ship without
holding Farmers also could
cit b together to make up co op.
erative carload shipments on reg
ular week days, thus saving the
margin lost in individual small
lot selling.
