CHOICE FARM LAINDS FOR SALE, 
THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL 
RAILROAD COMPANY 
IS NOW PREPARED TO SELL ABOUT 
1,500,000 ACRES OF CHOICE 
FARMING BANES, 
/y TRACTS OF FORTY ACRES AND UPWARDS 
ON LONG CREDITS, AND AT LOW RATES OF INTEREST. 
T hese lands were granted b^ 
the Government to aid the construction of this Road, and 
are among the richest and most fertile in the world. They ex¬ 
tend from Northeast and Northwest, through the middle of the 
[State, to the extreme South, and include every variety of climate 
and productions found between those parallels of latitude. The 
Northern portion is chiefly prairie, interspersed with fine groves, 
and in the Middle and Southern sections timber predominates, 
alternating with beautiful prairies and openings. 
The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, than any 
other part of the country; the air is pure and bracing, while liv¬ 
ing streams and springs of ex'celleiir water abound. 
Bituminous Coal is extensively mined, and supplies a cheap 
and desirable fuel, being furnished at many points at $2 to 
$4 per ton, and wood can be had at the same rate per cord. 
Building Stone of excellent quality also abounds, which can 
be procured for little more than the expense of transportation. 
The great fertility of these lands, which are a black rich mold 
from two to five feet deep, and gently rolling—their contiguity to 
this road, by which every facility is furnished for travel and 
transportation to the principal markets North, South, East, 
West, and the economy with which they can be cultivated, ren¬ 
der them the most valuable investment that can be found, and 
present the most favorable opportunity for persons of industri¬ 
ous habits and small means to acquire a comfortable independ¬ 
ence in a few years. 
Chicago is now the greatest grain market in the world, and 
the facility and economy with which the products of these 
lands can be transported to that market,make them much more 
profitable at the prices asked than those more remote at Govern¬ 
ment rates, as the additional cost of transportation is aperpetual 
tax ca die latter, which must be borne by the producer in the 
reduced price he receives for his grain, &c. 
The Title is Perfect, and when the final payments are made, 
Deeds are executed by the Trustees appointed by the State, and 
in whom the title is vested to the purchasers, which convey to 
them absolute titles in Fee Simple, free and clear of every in¬ 
cumbrance, lien or mortgage. 
The prices are from 06 to 030* 
INTEREST ONLY 3 PER CENT. 
20 per cent, deducted from the Credit price for Cash. 
Those who purchase on long credit give notes payable in 2, 3, 
4, 5 and 6 years after date, and are required to improve one-tenth 
annually for five years, so as to have one-lialf the land under 
cultivation at the end of that time. 
Competent Surveyors will accompany those who wish to ex¬ 
amine these lands, free of charge, and aid them in making selec¬ 
tions. 
The lands remaining unsold are as rich and valuable as those 
which have been disposed of. 
.SECTIONAL MAPS 
Will be sent to any one who will inclose fifty cents m Postage 
Stamps, and Books or Pamphlets, containing numerous in¬ 
stances of successful farming, signed by respectable and well- 
known farmers living in the neighborhood of the Railroad lands

expense of Harvesting, threshing, etc. or any other informa¬ 
tion, will be cheerfully given on application, either personally

Having been informed by our friends in some sections of the 
country, of the great injury done to their Hair, by the use of 
what purported to be the genuine LYON’S KATHAIRON, but 
proved to be worthless counterfeits and imitations; we caution 
the public against such imposition. Avoid all dealers who at¬ 
tempt to sell the spurious articles, for they are not to be depend¬ 
ed upon in any matter. The great excellence and universal pop¬ 
ularity of the genuine LYON’S KATHIRON is attested by its 
immense sale—nearly 1,000,000 bottles per year; all pronounce 
it the most excellent preparation for the Hair ever made.. Sold 
by all respectable dealers, everywhere, for 25 cents per bottle.
