seen that the officials of this land

not expect to play with the waiting

Cache Valley farmers entirely in the
disposition Of this rich tract of land

great many farmers here who ex-
pect to purchase small farms from
Richland acres, and 1t would seem

in and take up all the best tracts
when there are so many right here
at home who could well afford to
own a small tract and farm it to ad-
