Lands in Virginia and Elsewhere.
THERE are land agents and land agents. There are real estate men and real estate men. It is always well to be sure before one acts. For instance, a brother, whom we are assured is reliable, writes us from Skippers, Virginia, that he wishes to guard our readers against deception in buying farms in Virginia. In speaking of a certain class, he says:— Land is bought here by just such parties for $1.50 to $2.00 per acre, and sold for $15.00 to $30.00 per acre. This is a fraud, and should be exposed. Good homes can be bought for $4.00 to $10.00 per acre in small lots. We want our people to come here and hold up the light of truth; for there is a great work to be done; but we do not want them deceived. Come and get acquainted with the people, but beware of agents. All letters sent to me with enclosed stamp, asking questions the people may wish to know, will be answered till March 1, when I expect to change location. Skippers, Va. R. J. WHITE.
