This propertg is all level ana all on good roads and right at Draper, one of the best produce markets in the world. Year in and year out this land will produce more grain or grass than the best Dan River low-grounds. You can get as much as you want or as little as you want, and, if you buy, it will be at your own price. Can You Afford to Miss This Opportunity ? We have sold land all over the Southern and Eastern States and there is more money in circulation in and around Spray and Draper than anywhere we have ever sold, ana this is the only place we know, where there are big mills, that everybody has a chance to own his own nome, be a citizen of the State ana work where he pleases. The value of all land is controlled by the money in circulation near it and the kind of people who live on it. This being the - case, all the land in this community is bound to increase in value, and a dollar invested now will give you big returns. A man in his own home is more independent and makes a better citizen. The more good citizens we have, # the more the land will bp worth.
