TO TIIOBE WHO WANT FARMS,
A Farm within the reach of every Man.
rpHE RIDGWAY FARM COMPANY has
has made arracgemeuls by which all
who desire lo settle or purchase a home can
do so.
The Parma consist of the best lime.tong
soil of the most superior quality for farming,
in a rapidly improving place, into which an
extensive emigration is now pouring. The
property is located in F.Ht Connly, I'cnnsyl
vania, in the hihlst of a thriving population
of some MIjOOO. The climate is perfectly
henlthv, and the tetiihle plague of the west
fever is unknown. It also has an abundance
of the host quality of Coal and Iron. Tile
price to buy it out is from to S2O per acre,
payable by installments, to ha localeJ at the
time of purchasing,or a share of lwen<.v-fivc
ac.es entitling to locate the same for £3OO,
payable per month or 12$ acros payable $4
per *lOll til. Discount for every sum n r SIOO
and under, paid in advance, and for uvea SIOO
a dis .ounl of 10 per cent.
Inconsidcring the advantages of cmigralii.g
to this locality tho following are presented:
FrnsT—The soil is a rich limestone,capanlo
of raising the huuviesl crops, owing to whi.-li
this settlement has obtained its present great
pros|>eiity.
binromi —Tt is the centre of ,he great North
VP est Coal Basic, and is destinrd soon lo be
come one of the greatest business | laces in
the State. It will supply the great Lake niur
kot, (according to the population and trivet
the greatest in tho Union.) It has five work
aide veins of iho best Bituminous coat, amount
ing.in the aggregate 10 over 22 feet, which
makes 22.0UU tons of coal under each acre,
I'll is will mako the land or inestimable value.
The eminent geologist Dr. Chas.Jackson
of Boston, hns made a geological survey of the
land, and analysed the coal, the icon ore and
limestone. This report together with maps
will be furnished to inquirers.
Fovn-rn—Three Railroads are laid out thro'
this properly. Tho Suoburv and Line Railroad
gives us a market for our coal to the lakes—it
runs from Eric to Philadelphia. A large part
of the Road has been finished, and is now in
running order. A heavy force in now working
from Erie towards our land in the western di
rection, the means for the completion of which
has been rat-el, it will soon ho finished. The
Allegheny Valley "Railroad connects us with
New York, Boston and Pit'sburg. The Ve
nango Road connects us with the West.
are already good Turnpiko Roads
running through this property, various other
roads have been opened to accommodate the
cmrgration and settlement which has already
taken place.
There is no opportunity equal to it now of
fered to the man who wants to provide himself
a home in nn easy way, and make a settlement
where lie ean live in prosperity and independ
ence in a climate Perfectly Healthy.
No case of fever ever having been known to
occur in this settlement. It is not like going
to the backwoods of tho West, among perhaps
intolerant people, where there is no society,
churches, or schools, where the price of land is
high, anil where tho emigrant, after being used
to the healthiest climate in tho world, has to
endure sickness and pain, and perhaps ruins
his health and that of his family. But here is
a thriving settlement having thice towns, con
taining churches, schools, hotels, stores saw
mi lis, grist mills,and everything desired. There
is a iash maikcl at hand. 'The lumber trade
last year amounted to ovor 'wo hundred million
feet of lumber. In n short time, owing to the
coal.it wilt become still 111010 vitluublo as a
number of iron woika and manufactories will
soon be started; they are at present starting
them extensively al Watren. Even for those
who do not wish to go there, the payments
are such that they can easily buy a farm to
save their rising families from want 111 the
future, or to gain n competence by the rise
which will lake place in the value of lands.
By an outlay scarcely missed, a substantial
provision can be made.
Persons should make early application,"ap
ply or write to E. Jeffries, Secretary, No. 135
Waln in Street, below Fifth, Philadelphia.—

j This has been the result of its marked su-
I perionty in quality, and its invariable uni
j furmiiy.
I Tho public may be asm red of ihe continu
j attce of the high standard now established.
J The production is over Twenty Tons daily,
. and the demand has extended throughout the
j whole ol the United Slates, and to foreign
j countries.
Working thus on a very large scale, and
j under a rigid system, they arc able to secure
| a perleet and uniformity in tbequality tnrough-
I out the year. This is :he great Desideratum
1 ut Starch-making, and is realized now lor
! the liist time.
Tho very best starch that can bo made,and
no other, is always wai ted by consumers,
; mid while this will be supplied to them by
| the grocers, as soon us their customers have
i Icained which is the best, and ask for it—
otherwise they would be likely to got that
article on which the largest profit can be
I made.
j Mr. King-ford has been engaged in the
; riiainilai-turc of March continuously for the
last 27 years, and during Ihe whole of the
: period, the starch made under his supervia-
I ton has been, bevond any question, the best
'• in the market. For the first 17 years, he had

Potato Starch has been extensively packed
