ly fitted for grazing cattle and sheep. or the
cultivation of Wheat, Indian corn, etc. March 17, 1856.
Economy in cultivating anti • great produc
tiveness are the well known characteristics' of
Illinois lands. Trees are not required to he
cut down, stumps grubbed. or stone picked,off.
as is;generelly the case in cultivating new land
in the older States. The first crop of Indian
corn, planted on the newly brokervexl, usually
epayslthe cost of plowing and fencing.
Wheat sown on the newly-turned sod is sure
to yield very LARGE PROFITS. A man with a
plow and two yoke of oxen will break one and
a half to• two acres per day. Contracts can be
made for breaking, ready for corn or wheat, at
from $2 to 2,50 per acre. By judicious man-.
a-ernent, the land may be plowed and fenced
the first, and under a HIGH STATE OF CULTIVA
SION- 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-,
die States, is known to be much mote than
sufficient to pay the difference of transportation
to the Eastern market.
Bituminous 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 $4,00 per ton ;
Wood can be had at the same rates per cord.
Those who think of settling in lowa or Min.
nesota, should hear in mind, that, lands there,
deny value, along the water courses and for
1 many miles inland, have, been disposed of :
that for those located in the interior, there' are
no conveniences for transporting . the produce
to market. Railroads not having been. intro
dlic'ed there. That to send the produce of these - ,
land& one or two hundred mile's by wagonto
Market, would cost much more than.:the ex
pense of cultivating them ; and'hence, Govern
ment lands thus situated, at' $1,25 per acre,
are not so good investments as the laud of this
company at the prices fixed.
The same remarks hold good in relation to
the lands in Kansas and Nebraska, for although
vacant lands - may be found nearer the, water
course& the 'distance to market is far greater.
and every hundred miles the produce of those
lands are carried either in- wagons, or inter
rupted water communications, increases the
expenses of transportation, which must be
borne by the settlers, in the reduced price of
their products ; - and to that extent precisely
ti
„
are th Ileums from their farms, and of course
on thei 'nvestments, annually and every year
. .
reduced. - .
The great fertility of the lands now offered
for sale by this company, and their consequent
yield over those of the, Eastern and Middle
States, is much more than sufficient to pay the
differene.e in the cost of transportation, especial-
ly in view of the facilities furnished by this
Road, and others with which it 'Connects, the
operations of which are not interrupted by the
low,water of summer, or the frost of winter..
Price and Terms of Payment.
The price Will vary from $5 to $25, accord

annual installments. The first to become due
in two years from the date_of contract, and the
others annually thereafter. The last payment
will become due at the end of the sixth year
from the date of the contract.
LW - Interest will be charged at only TIMER
per cent. per annum. As a security to the
performance of the contract • the first two years'

and low rate of interest-charged for these
lands, will enable a man with a few hundred
dollars in cish and ordinary irg:ustry, to tnake
himself independent before all the purchase
money becomes due. In the -mean time, the
