"'V Edward Fitzgerald, President The S. & F. ranch has been doing a lot of big things in a small way. Now we want you to aid in doing them in the biggest way. This farm is well adapted to the feeding of hogs and quite a bunch are being fed there all the time. Everyone knows that there are big jrofits in running hogs with cattle and it is plain to see that there is always a profit in corn, cattle, hogs and al falfa when well worked out. The drainage of the feed yard is good, and this is important. In all of the years of hog feeding at this farm there have been no cases of hog cholera. The wa ter supply is excellent, a large, deep well supxlying abundance of water which is pumped to a tank on a hill by either windmill or engine and then distributed by pipes to the various yards. Our Ranch is Close to Your Home You Can Investigate. You are invited to share in the profits of the most profitable ranches in Nebraska. That is the gist of the 4,S. t F." otfer to small investors when you are ofTered shares in our ranch proj osition at 8100 per share. It is not often that one has a chance to get an 8 per cent return on his money, but this is one chance that is guaranteed by successful men, practical and conservative business men who believe firmly in profit-sharing. A SUCCESSFUL FARM One of the most profitable ranches in Nebraska is that known as the 4,S. it F." Ranch in Morrill County owned by Schlater tfc Fitzgerald Bros, of Plattsmouth, Nebr. The methods employed in operating this ranch have been highly profitable. In addition to the ranch of more than 4,000 acres in Morrill County, the company lias a large farm in Cass County. Cattle are run Uon the range on the western ranch and then brought to the Cass County farm for the finishing touches, with liberal feeding of corn and alfalfa. From this farm to the South Omaha market is only 18 miles. THOROUGHLY TRIED The plan of operation has been thoroughly tried and has brought 30 per cent return on a capital of $100,000. Now we want to branch out and enlarge this business. We want a ranch large enough to run off 5,000 fat cattle every year. It is your chance. r -.
