Are you building 

 a Reservoir? 



If so, you need a headgate. Why not get an iron gate? 

 It is as easily put in as a wooden one and will outlast a 

 dozen wooden gates. 



You know a wooden gate is bound to swell and warp, and 

 leak, and then may wash out. A Northwestern Headgate is 

 made entirely of iron and cannot warp, and being water-tight 

 is not likely to wash out. Being the most durable headgate, 

 it is also the cheapest. 



My booklet will tell you more about the advantages of 



NORTHWESTERN IRON HEADGATES 



Send for it. Then if you want to investigate further I will 

 send you the gate you need on a month's free trial, even 

 paying the freight. Then if you are not satisfied, ship the 

 gate back at my expense, and I will pay you the cost of 

 etting the gate. If I could make a fairer offer I would.

Opportunity 



When combined with virgin soil, splendidly adapted to the products which 

 yield the greatest profit, you have a superior climate, excellent water and 

 abundance of it, unsurpassed railroad facilities, good smooth roads and all 

 the advantages of civilization, you have an opportunity that it is difficult to 

 equal in this country today, especially so when you can purchase good land 

 close to an enterprising city of 8,000 for from $10 per acre upwards on easy 

 terms. While it is true that we are making great progress in this part of 

 Michigan, do not get the idea that there is a "boom" on our present head- 

 way is simply the natural result of our actual advantages, the possibilities 

 of which are just becoming to be recognized. I could fill up several pages 

 telling you facts about these lands I have for sale. I am enthusiastic 

 because I know what this country will do for the industrious man. I 

 believe in it because I know it and can prove every statement that I make. 

 Besides thousands of acres that I have sold the past year, the first year these 

 lands were ever offered, I have 



20,000 Acres at $5 per Acre and Upwards 



from one-half to six miles from the City of Cadillac which I will sell on 

 reasonable terms to actual settlers who will help me to develop them. I 

 have an illustrated booklet and map giving complete and accurate infor- 

 mation which I will be glad to send you free if you will write me. Write 

 me to-day, it will pay you.
