flftf im THE FRANK W. YOUNGMAN LAND CO Real Estate Brokers, General Insurance and Loam FRANK W. YOUNGMAN LAND CO.'S AD. 1.—To the local farmer and investor: In this harvest issue of the Indepen dent, we will take this opportunity to say a few words in re gard to the prospects of future land values. The shrewd in yestor is buying everything he can buy, if he can get it on terms that he can pay for it from the land. If you can buy a quarter or half section on crop payments, with a small pay ment down, you are on the road to riches. Our old Indian prophet, who never fails in his prophecies, has told us that we are over the seven bad years and that we will have eleven heap good years." The average North Dakotan knows that with ordinary good farming, he can pay for a quarter section in from three to five years and if your profession is farming (and let me whisper in your ear that farming is a nice profession), it will pay you to stock up with all the land you can handle at this particu lar time. Of course, do not buy more than you can handle, but if you have the horses and outfit for two quarters and own only one, you are missing something. You can buy lands cheaper today than you will ever be able to do so again in Ward County. Therefore, with our lands quoted at the lowest prices, our prospects for future years is the very best. It does not take much figuring for a man to see that the slogan should be "buy apiece of land." —See The Frank W. Youngman Land Co. FRANK W.
