if you will act at once.
A fine , fairly well unproved 160 acres , with a pretty good
6 or 7 room house , corn cribs , granaries , chicken house , barn
is not very good , but all improvements can be put in good

this farm March ist , 1908 , and only 4 miles from Falls City ,

ments. This is all good smooth land , with the exception of
