Farm Lands for Sale
The Illinois Central Railroad Company
IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL ,
Over Twin Millions of Acres
OF PARMINC , LANDS,
IN TRACTS OF 40 ACRES AND I.7I"WARDS. ON
.LONG CREDITS AND AT LOW RATES OF. INTEREST:
/MESE lands were granted by the Govern.
meat, to aid in the construction of this
Railroad. and include some of the richest and
most fertile Prairies in the State, interspersed
here and there with magnificent groves of oak
and other timber. The Road extends from
Chicago. on the North-Fast.- to Cairo at the
South. and from thence to Galena and Douleith,--
in the North
.meat extreme of the State, and as
all the lands lie within fifteen miles on each
side of this Road,• ready and cheep means aro
afforded by it for transporting the precincts of
the lands to any of these points and from thence
to Eastern and Southern markets. Moreover,
the rapid growth of flourishing towns and vil
lages} along the line, and the great increase in
population by immigration. etc.. afford a sub
stantial and growing home-demand for farm
produce.
The soil is a dark, rich mould, from one to
five feet in depth. is gently rolling and peculiar
ly fitted for grazing rattle and sheep, or the
cultivation of Wheat. Indian corn, etc. •
Econotny in cultivating and great produc
tiveness are the well known characteristics of
Illinois lands. Trees are not required to be
cut downi stumps grubbed, or stone picked oft
as is generally the case in cultivating new land
in the older States. The first crop - , of Indian
corn, planted on the newly broken sod, usually
repays the cost of plowing and fencing:
Wheat sown on the newly-turned sod is mire
to yield 'very LARGE PROFITS. A man with , a
plow and two yoke of oxen-will brehk one and
a half to two acres per day. COMMIS can bo
made for breaking, ready for corn or wheat, at-
Irmo $2 to 2,50 per acre. By - judicious man
agement, the land may be plowed and fenced
the first, and under a HIGH STAIR OF CIILTITA;-
TION the_second year. _
Corn, grain, cattle, etc., will. be forwarded
at reasonable rates to Chicago, for the Eastern
market, and to . Cairo for the- Southern. The
larger yield on the cheap lands of Illinois over
the high;priced lands in the Eastern and Mid
dle States, is known to he - tench Aimee, than
-sufficient to pay the difference of transportation
to the• Eastern market.
Bltuminons coal is mined at several points
along the Road, and is a cheap and desirable'
fuel. It can be- delivered at several points
along the Road at $1,50 to 84.00 per ton;
%Vuod can be had at the Same rates per cord.,
Those who think of settling in lowa or Min
nesota, should bear in - wind, that lands there,
of any value, along the water masses and for
many miles inland. have been disposed of :
that for those located in the interior, there .aro
culivenienc..s for transporting the produco
to Market, -Rai!roads not having been intro
duced there. That to send the pwoltice of these'
I ait cis - . - oite or two hundred-miles - hv - wagon - to

Larger buildings may be contracted for at pro
portionate rates.
Special arrangements with dealers can be
made to supply those purchasing the Company's
lands with fencing materials, agricultural tools, ,
and an outfit of provisions in any quantity, at
the LOW EST WHOLESALE PRICES.
E - ft is believed that the price, long credit;
and low rate of •interest. charged for these
lands, will enable a man with a few hundred
dollars in cash and ordinary inr:ustry, to make
himself independent before all the purchase
money becomes due. In the mean time, the
rapid settlement of the country will probably
have increased their value four or five fold.--
