The Land of Health and Prosperity
Offered for Your Approval by
The Farmers' Investment Company
THE FARMERS' INVESTMENT COMPANY of Lincoln, Nebraska, is
a corporation owned and controlled by the f armers, organized for the expresV; pur
r.cse or securing good farm lands at the right prices and to do away with the ex
oibitpnt commissions that the farmer haj been forced to pay when buying land
from land speculators.
. OUR METHOD is to secure choice farm lands in a territory where the
possibilities are frreaiest, not from land speculators, but from farmers and actual
owners, and to put it on the market wit'i as little expense as possible. We do not
employ an army of cgents to divide com -nissiens with, all the profits mads going
into the treasury of the Company and are paid back to the farmer in dividends.
WE DO NOT RUN EXCURSIONS. Did you ever stop to think, Mr. Land
Buyer, tht when ycu buy land of a Co.npany running excursions yoa are pay
ins' Lho expenses of a vacation trip for seerl of your neighbors? There are al
ways men wko will go on an excursion who have no intention of buying land,
ihey go because of the opportunity to se; the country at the expense of someone
elec, and you can easily figure that the 1 -nd Company is not standing this less, it
sirr.ply means that the man who buys m jst pay an extra $5 to $10 per acre to
cover the expenses of tha men who go and do not buy. That is the reason we do
not run excursions and is one reason why our prices are from $5 to $15 per acre
cheaper th?.n other Companies operating in the same territory. Each man going
wiih us pays his own expenses, and when ycu buy of us you are not paying the
vacation expenses of someone else, you are paying for so much land at its actual
value. t
WE ARE NOW OFFERING 43,000 acres of choice Eastern Colorado
land, located in the famous rain belt an 3 shallow water district of Lincoln coun
ty, where every crop raised in eastern Nebraska has been tried out and has made
good. Several thousand acres of this trac; is valley land and is a natural home for
alfalfa. We have several well improved farms close to town that are real bar
gains. This tract is near the town of LIMON, the junction of the main lines of the
Union Pacific and' the Rock Island railroads. Already a splendid town with good
schools, churches and stores, and with tie shipping facilities it offers is adding
greatly to the development of the country. This country, like all new countries,
was first settled to a great extent by, men who were too shiftless to make a living
in the cast, whose assets, as a rule, were from 6 to 16 hound dogs, and about as
many children and a double-barrelled shot-gun. Those men were largely responsi
ble for the reports circulated of crop failures and lack of rain. They scratched in
s. faw acres of grain and because it did not make a big yield while they were out
chasing coyotes instead of cultivating it, they of course "cussed'A-the country. But
it w?.s not many years until a few real farmers from the east saw the possibilities
of the rich soil and ideal climate, and whrehese men, as a rule had a small amount
of capital, they did not have the hound dog and shot-gun habit, and instead of try
ing to run the legs off the Jack-rabbits in the country, they were at home culti
vating their crops. These men commenced to raise good crops, although the rain
f?!i showed no increase, and as more men of this kind settled and learned what
crops were best suited to the soil and saw that moisture could be consented so
that they were sure of a crop every year, they wrote to their friends and neigh
bors and the real settlement of eastern Colorado began; so that now, going to Lin
coln county, Colorado, to make your home is no hardship. You will find good
schools, good churches, mail routes, telephones and much better roads than in
eastern Nebraska.
WE DO NOT want you to take our word about this wonderful country.
We wa::t you to go with us and see the growing crops and talk to the men who
have lived there for years.
OUR LANDS range in price from $10 to $50 per acre. Our terms- are
good, and we GUARANTEE our titles. If you are going to buy land, buy of a
company organized to protect your interests, and the money you will save will
go far toward improving your farm.
If you are interested call at our office or drop us a card and we will send
you literature. If you arrange to go at once you will be able to choose just what
you want from this large tract.

Suggestion for a Camping Trip.
Buy a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy before
le'aving home. As a rule It cannot
be obtained when on a hunting, fish
ing or prospecting trip. Neither can
it be obtained while on board the
ars or Meamships and at such times
ind places it is most likely to b
needed. The sate way is to have it
with j'cm.
