ATTENTION FARMERS
I have 130 acres of fine river bot-

acres of fine alfalfa the rest in
timber including a fine woods pasture
for hogs enclosed with a good hog
wire fence
There is a good house and large
barn on this place I want a good
farmer with one or more grown boys
to locate permanently to clear up the
timber land for cultivation at once
and I have a fine proposition for
raising hogs and stock
None but a competent farmer and
stockman need apply and who will
be willing to clear the timber land at
once It will pay the right man to
investigate
