TO THOSE WHO WANT FARMS.
A Farm within Ike reach of every Man.
THE RIDGWAY FARM COMPANY has
has made arrangements by which all
who desire to settle or purchase a home ban
do so.
The Farms consist of the best limestohg
soil of the most superior qustliy for terming,
in e rapidly improving place, into which an
extfenmc emigration is now pouring. The
property is located in Elk Conniy, Pennsyl
vania, in the midtt of a thriving population
of some 10,000. The climate is perfectly
heelthv, end the terrible plague of the west
fever Is unknown. It also has an abundance
of Ihe best quality of Coal ai,d Iron. The
price to buy it out is from {3 to S2O per acre,
payable by installments, to be iocateJ at the
time of purchasing, or a sharo of twon'y-five
sc.os entitling to locate the tame for S3OO,
payable $6 per month or 134 acres payable $4
per month. Discount for every sum o r SIOO
and under, paid In advance, eod for ovej SIOO
a die ;ount of 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating
to this locality the following are presented:
Fihst —The soil is a rich limestone,capable
of raising the heaviest crops, owing to whi.lt
thia settlement has obtained its present great
prosperity;
bucoirii—lt is llih centre of .he great North
West Coal Basic, aud is dealinrd soon to be
come one of the greatest business i laces in
the State. It will supply Ihe greet Lake mar
ket, (according to the population and travel
the greatest in the Union.) It has five work
able veihaof the beat Bituminous coal, smount
mg in the aggregate to over 22 feet, which
makes 23,000 tons of coal under each acre.
This will make the lat-d of inestimable value.
The eminent geologist Dr. Chaa. T. Jackson
of Boston,has made a geological survey of the
land, and analysed the coal, the iten ore arid
limestone. This report together with maps
will be furnished to inquirers. *
FoonTH —Three Railroads arc laid out thro'
ibis property. The Bunburv and Eno Railroad
gives us a market for our coal lo tho lakes—it
runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part
of the Road has licen finished, end is now in
tunning order. A heuvy force is now working
from Erie towards our land ill the western di
rection, the means for the completion of which
has been rat-oJ, it will soon lie finished. The
Allegheny Valley JRailroad connects us with
New York, Buston aud Pittsburg. The Ve
nango Road connects us with Ihe West.
There are already good Turnpiho Roads
running through this propcity, various other
roeds have been opened lo accommodate the
rmrgration end settlement which has eliendy
taken place.
There is no opportunity equal to it now of
fered to the man who wants to provide himself
a home tn on easy way, and make a settlement
where he ran live in prosperity and independ
ence in a climate Perfectly Healthy.
No case of fever ever having been knawn to
orrur in this settlement. It is not like goiug
to the backbonds of the West, among perhaps
intolerant people, where there is no society,
rhurchcs, or schools, where the price of land is
high, end where the emigrant, after being used
to the healthiest climate in lite world, has to
endure sirkness end pain, and perhaps ruins
his health and that of bis family. But here is
u thriving settlement hovuig thiec towns, con
taining churches, sellouts, hotels, stores saw
railis, grist mills, and everything desired. There
is a (osh market ul hulid. The lum!>er trade
last yroi amcUntcd to ovor two hundred million
feet of lumber, tit a short time, owing lo the
coal.it will become still more valuable as a
number of ironworks tihd manufactories will
Htiun be started; they are al present starling
them extensively at Wutreti. Even for those
who do not wish to go there, ihe payments
aru such that they can easily buy a farm lo
save their rising families from want in the
future, or to gain a competence by the rise
which will take pluce in the value of lands.
By an outlay scarcely missed, a substantial
provision can be made.

(FOR THE LAUNDRY.)
IT AS established a greater celebrity than
*•* has ever been obtained by any otbor
Starch.
This has been the result of its marked sit
periorily in quality, and its invariable uni
formity.
The public, may be assured of the conlinu
ance of the h yh standard now established.
The production is over Twenty Tone daily
and Ihe demand has extended throughout itjo
whole ol the United State*, and to forei->u
countries.
Working thns on a very large scale, and
under a rigid system, they are able lo secure
a perfect and uniformity in inequality tnrough
out the year. This is ;he great Desideratum
in Starch-.maf.ing, and n realized now for
ihe first time.
The very bestslaroli lhat can be made,and
no other , is always warted by consumer*,
and while this will be supplied to them by
the grocers as soon as their cu-torners have
learned which is the best, and a-k for it—
olh -rwise they would be likely to gel that
article on which the largest profit can be
made.
Mr. Kingsford has l.ecn engaged in tb3
manufacture of s'arch continuously for thb
last 27 years, and during Ihe whole of tho
period, the starch mada under his supervis
ion has been, bevond any question, the
in the market. For the first 17 years, ho had
the charge of the work'ol Wm. Colgate A
Co., at which period he invented the process
of ihe manufacture of corn starch.
Atkjor KmgtfitttTi Starch, or tlu name
Oiirego has recently hem taken ly another fac
tory.

OSWEGO CORN STARUII,
(For Pwidihgs, the,)
Has obtained an equal celebrity with their
Siarcli for the laundry. This article is per
fectly pore, and is, in everr respect, equal to
the best Fermcda Arrow-Root, besides hav
ing additional qualities which render it inval
uable for ihe dessert.
Potato Starch ha* been extensively packed
and sold a* Corn fcarch, and has given false
impressions to many, as to the real merits of
our Com Starch.
From its great delicacy and purity, it it
coming a.-o into extensive use as a die! lot
