Isolated Lands in the Willow River Valley Now Brought into Close Touch With the Duluth and Twin City Markets. New Towns and Cheap Lands will be occupied Rapidly. The Land is Good. Settlers and Investors:- I have for sale something worth invest- ing. Itis 3000 acres of good land. Timber land, and all good farm ing land, in the Willow River val- ley, in northern Aitkin County, Minnesota. This tract is crossed by the new Soo railroad, now building from Thief River Falls to Duluth and Superior, thus placing this land, which has heretofore been isolated from railroads, within easy reach of big cities with their great mar- kets, over a directline of railway. Our land lies level and gently rolling. The soil is a rich loam, where the maple, oak and bass wood grow, and yields enormous crops of everything you stick in the ground. Some of this landis cut over, but is mostly easy to clear and you can raise crops the first year; fine feed growing on this land now; on meadow and upland, some .with tame grass. Fuel and fencing for a lifetime. And a new town is laid out close up to our lands. Fne lakes; also running streams cross the town- ship which drain the country. There will be a movement to these good lands along this new railway, by home-seekers and in- vestors very soon, and when these good cheap lands of Northern Minnesota are taken up, the last good cheap lands of the famed American west will be gone for- ever. We are facing the very last chance. Don’t you think you ought to hurry aud get some land? Will sell you 40 acres of this land, or will sell you more, what- ever you want. And the terms of any good man will suit me. Give you what time you need to pay for it, witha small payment down to show you mean business. The price will be low, $10, $12, $15 to $20 per acre, owing to loca- tion etc., but it is all good land. The American farmer is coming into his own. If you are looking for land, “for lands sake’’ get some close in and close up to the door of big markets, that is, don’t go away off out into the realm of space, hundreds of miles from nowhere, thinking to succeed in the dim and misty future experi- menting with nature. Life is too short for that. Select land where youjare sure things always grow and crop failure is never known. ‘Everybody knows the cleared timber lands of the older states are still proving the best on earth. You will succeed it you get that kind. We have them. Write to EDWIN L. BUCK GRAND RAPIDS HERALD-REVIEW WEDNESDAY, MARCI 20,1910.

On Wednesday evening, at 6:30, March 23, 1910, occurred the wedding of Irving A. Myers and Miss Rose Carlson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Carlson of this place. The jhappy event took place at the} home of attorney and Mrs. E. H. Bither on Fourth avenue. The beau- tiful ring ceremony of the Presby- terian church was used and Rev. W. O. Garrett was the officiating clergy- man. Only the immediate relatives of the bride and groom were present. (he bride was attired in her going- away gown of navy blue panama and carried white carnations. The groom wore the conventional black. A dain- ty wedding luncheon was served and the bridal party left on the Great Northern for Mandam, N. D. where they \will visit with the mother and a married sister of Mr. Meyers. For the past three years Miss Carlson has been a teacher in Bovey schools and has won to an unusual degree, the love of the children and parents alike. Mr. Myers has resid- ed here for the past’ two and a half years land has been the valued assis- tant in Mr. Bither’s.law office. He is a young man of the highest in- tregity, exemplary habits and is a|¢y genuine hustler for business. Both have been indefatigable work- ers in the Presbyterian C. E. society. As tthe bridal party were leaving for the station, suddenly from out of the dusk of the twilight, emerged figures which proved to be those of the former fellow teachers of the bride, members of the Reading circle. 4 and showers on showers of rice fell, it is safe to say no one escaped with- out his or her full share. At the station more rice and also appropriat mottoes for the baggage were in evi- dence. At last the train came and amid the hearty good wishes of their | many friends the young couple de- | parted. About twenty young people accompanied them to Coleraine.
