Are those who use their own judgment and not hesitate arid procrastinate ,when a(
good opportunity is offered. The big profits in any business or investment are made
by those who BUY AT THE INCEPTION OR BEGINNING of the enterprise who
GETS IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR not by the man who waits until the price
reaches the top, nor the one who takes everyones' judgment but his own although the
party appealed to may not know anything about the proposition in question and per;
haps not much of anything else.
No Proposition was ever Knocked and Atagoriized
more persistently andnvicious.than the Drainage. of the Everglades, and those who pre
fer to get information in lieu of all the proof, indorsement and information furnished by
reliable authorities better not waste their time nor ours.
We are colonizing. 180,000 acres of DRAINED EVERGLADE LAND lying on
the east coast of Southern Florida between Palm Beach and Miami. Rich, deep muck
soil; in fact, there is no better soil in the world, an ideal climate, very profitable crops,
good market, intelligent people, and we are selling this land at a price that does not
bar anyone. U is an exceptional opportunity for a profitable investment or a home to
those who are willing to use their own judgment, and they are the ones that always
succeed.
The state of Florida is draining this land; and the drainage of the Everglades is
past all question and doubt, and has be come to those who know, another miracle to
this great world of progress.
At the beginning of the drainage of the Everglades, men who were well posted
said if the Everglades land can not be drained you will lose if you buy at $i.ooper
acre; when drained you would be stealing the same" at 100.00 per acre.
If you want to profit by development and the advance in price, buy now and you
will never regret it. We will be glad to give you any further information, and
kindly invite you to call and talk this proposition over with us.
