Friday February 2,1906 LAND SALE Mr UBERGANG, of Warrnambool, was the purchaser of Mr H. SCHMIDT'S farm yesterday. There was a large attendance at NEWTON'S Hotel, including would be buyers from New South Wales and South Australia. Mr J. SUDHOLZ started the bidding at £6. and after very brisk bidding Mr. Thos. YOUNG knocked it down to Mr. UBERGANG at £8/16/., Mr August GLADIGAN going to £8/15/. This is a record price for local land. An hour later at the same hotel, Messrs HAGELTHORN and BOLTON disposed of the farm of Mr Jas. WOODHART jr. at Tooan East. This was secured by Mr T. DWYER, who has property in the vicinity, at £4/2/. per acre, which was regarded as a highly satisfactory figure.
