The new purchasers, I am convinced, will start a colonization movement and isydll bring a number o f desirable and thrifty farmers to Custer county.” ^ T ’he deal Is considered-one of the most Important that has been made In j&iles City in many a day, as It is be- t eved it will result in bringing a big de o f ' immigration here. The nature o f the soil is good, and real estate men assert it is as good aB any piece of farming land • in Custer county. The land, If cut up into 160 and 320 acre tractB, and put under the ditch, should be worth from $25 to $60 per acre. Representatives of the parties to the transaction have departed for the east to fix up the papers and otherwise formally conclude the deal. j,M r. Gipe, representing the purchas ing company, Is very imfch pleased With the conditions here, and stated to the Independent that but little dif ficulty would be experienced in induc ing farmers to come out here and lo cate. All of the 20,000 a;ores, he states, will be placed under the ditch. Mr. Gipe left this morning for the east to close the details, and he ex a c t s to be out here again shortly. HE LIKES OCR STYLE.
