FIFTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR FIFTY

Send your boy to an agricultural college if you can, but if you find that impossible, get him a scholarship in the Campbell Correspondence School of Soil Culture. It will cost you fifteen hundred dollars to send him to an agricultural college for three years. You can buy a scholarship in the Campbell Correspondence School for fifty dollars and educate your boy at home. If he applies his spare time to study and takes pains with his work on the farm, he will know as much about scientific farming at the end of three years as he would if he spent that time and that fifteen hundred dollars at an agricultural college. He does not have to pass an examination, and can begin at any time and go as fast as he pleases.

Of course you are too old to go to college, but you are not too old to study at home. We have students all the way from 19 years old to 84 years young. Write for a catalog and save $1,450. You can't make that much money as easy in any other way.

Buy at the Bottom—

Sell at the Top

This is the only road to wealth for the investor. The wise man buys when few are buyingand gets a bargain. He sells when many are buying-and makes his profit. That rule is the basis of all fortunes that have been made in real estate.

To-day, the great war has depressed prices to the lowest possible point. NOW is the time to BUY. Soon or late the war will end, and then there will be such a boom as America has never seen. Prices will go soaring. Then will be the time to sell. Even now we are beginning to feel the tremendous influence for betterment in American commerce. Our exports now are greater than the country has ever known. One dollar invested NOW may bring FIVE later on.

TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY-YOU WORK HARD FOR YOUR MONEY; MAKE YOUR MONEY WORK HARD FOR YOU.

WE ARE MAKING NOW AT ROCK-BOTTOM PRICES

AN EXTRAORDINARY OFFER

Choice Building Lots at $39.00 Each

$1.00 Down and $1.00 per Month

The wonderful increase of values on Long Island is one of the marvels of latter-day history. In scores of towns property has increased not only 50 per cent., 100 per cent., but in many cases 1,000 per cent. Lots that sometime since could have been bought for a song are to-day worth thousands of dollars. A few years ago, some school teachers bought lots in Hempstead, Long Island, at fifteen dollars each; to-day the lots sell for six hundred or more apiece. A few years ago, a physician bought two lots at Long Beach, at ninety dollars each; eighteen months later he sold them for one thousand dollars apiece. These are only two out of thousands of similar instances. Section by section the Pennsylvania Railroad is electrifying the line throughout the Island; trolleys are spreading in a network toward all interior towns, and the whole Island is becoming more and more closely identified with New York City.

Out of the sweltering, crowded city of New York thronging thousands are pouring into the suburban towns and cities of Long Island. Hundreds of millions of dollars are being expended by the Pennsylvania Railroad alone, for its development. Tremendous engineering workstunnels, bridges, railroads, electric roads are under way, involving more money than the Panama Canal. What the bridge did for Brooklyn, what the subway did for the Bronx-multiplying values enormously almost overnight-these gigantic transportation schemes of the Pennsylvania Railroad will do for Long Island. It will furnish the fastest, finest and the most comfortable rapid transit in the world.

We are offering for sale at remarkably low figures choice building lots located at Oak Ridge Park, near East Moriches, the world-famous summer resort, on the Pennsylvania Long Island Railroad. Every foot of ground is high, dry, fertile and healthful. The property is only seven minutes' walk to the station and twelve minutes' walk to the Great South Bay, with its glorious facilities for still water and ocean fishing, swimming and boating. For a summer home or bungalow, for small fruit or poultry raising, or to hold as an investment, these lots at our prices cannot be surpassed. The title to the property is insured by the United States Title and Guarantee Company of New York City.

Our present price, subject to increase at any moment is $39.00 for a city size lot, 20x100 feet. This can be paid at the rate of $1.00 down and $1.00 per month until paid for. We sell as little as one lot, but we would advise you buy three, or as many more up to five as you feel that you can afford.

BUY NOW. Begin TO-DAY to provide for your future and that of your family. Get into the land-owning class and break away from the tyranny of landlords. Values are increasing by leaps and bounds. If you buy five lots now you ought before long to sell any one of them at what you paid to-day for the five. DO NOT WAIT until the gigantic improvements on Long Island now in progress are completed; until prices climb enormously; until the lot that you can buy to-day at $39.00 is selling at $300.00 or more. Make sure of reaping that profit yourself by acting NOW. Fill out this and send to-day for our beautifully illustrated booklet, FREE.
