Atf- Dial 3 0 CK T uesday On August 1 7th, at 10 o’clock, I will sell to the highest bidder, at my old home place, in Newton county, the three fine farms shown in the above plat. This is my old home place sub¬ divided into three convenient and desirable farms. This is some of the most valuable farm lands in Newton county. It is a rich mulatto soil and very productive. It is well situated, being on the new Covington road and the Covington and Lawrenceville road. Has R. F. D. service and there are schools and churches within a short distance. The new Covinfiton road passes thru each of these farms, and teere are other good roads, making it easily accessible from all directions. There is abundant water and timber supply, about 20 per cent, of each farm being in fine original forest. These are sel-sustaining farms and the man who is looking for an ideal country home or for a paying land invest¬ ment can’t afford to miss this sale. There are few desirable farms like these on the market today. In fact these would not be for sale but for the fact that I am so far from them as to make it impossible to give them hardly any attention. Terms of Sale I have made the terms easy so that this land will pay lor itself. The terms are as follows : 5 per cent, of the price on delivery of bond for title. I will accept a good note for the 5 per cent, due Dec. 1, 1909. * Note for 20 per cent, of price due Jan. 1, 1910. “ “ 25 . ...... . 44 Jan. 1, 1911. 44 44 25 44 44 44 “ 44 Jan. 1, 1912. 44 44 25 44 44 44 44 44 Jan. 1, 1913.
