How Did If Happen?
Well it is this way, there Is a chance for every man
that has any energy what ever, to get a homo, come
and see us. We have about fifteen (15) farms to offer
as follows, Improved and unimproved ones,, will take
Crop payments after the first payment is made.
These farms are located in the best part of the West and
we think this is a much better plan for you Mr. Renter.
Buy one of these farms where you can pay out for it,
the same as paying rent and you will own your own
home. We know of men that have paid out for their
land that way in three years, why not you try and get
one the same way.
We give free transportation, for to go arid see these
farms, when the roads are so we can travel over them
safely.
Now is tho time for you to get the best proposition we
ever found in land, if you are interested come in and
see us and talk it over. Wo will sure get you a good
buy if you will come and ride out with us,
We have other good buys of all kinds.
Please remember the address.

CHEAP ADVICE!
as
be
Advice is one of the cheapest things In the world. It's as free
the air. No matter what your troubles may be, just let it
known and advice will come piling In.
The old maid know! how to rear children, the bachelor knows
just how a wife should be handled, and even a bald-headed drutf
gist can sell hair tonic and get away with it but the advice you
seek, not the kind that Is volunteered, Is the kind you want. We
are not a volunteer in the advice business, but if you are a patron
of ourbank and ask advice on iinancial matters we will be glad
to help you in any way we can.
