A proaperou tall la practically certain, the crops and better feeling assure this, and a conald rabl number ot Inqulriea mad last week la another index, although many sale from ta bav not yet materialised. Dealera In farm land have not felt th dog-day dullness a much as men with city property to sell, and all th men who . have acreage property out In th stat for aal are feeling well aajlafled.

Mr. 1DI tenner announcea the sal In October of another 3,000-acr tract adjacent to the land In th Kountxe ranch, a sale of 8.000 acre of which was made with great success In July. Th property which belonged to M. F. Harrington, the well known politician. waa auctioned orr and brought an average price of f26 an acre. Representative Jamea Oretfg at Platte county, who lived la Hall county for twenty yeara. bought a little chunk of 600 acres, on which he aay he may settl some day when tired ot politics.
