There's a reason. There are plenty of reasons.
As a general conclusion, satisfy yourself by taking a
general survey of the towns, county seat towns in
the East you have known ami you will recall towns
of four ami five thousand people that do not Ix'gin to
have the natural resources tributary to them that
Enterprise has. In those towns of T0jO the resources
are developed. Here they liaven't begun to develop.
In this valley there are 70,000 acres of irrigated land,
not a "going to be" proposition, but an actual fact
todav-. We say that every acre of that 70.000 acres
of irrigated land is tributary to Enterprise. Part of
it is near Joseph, Lostine and Wallowa, but as every
one of those towns grows. Enterprise, will grow that
much faster. As a "one-:nan town" is a dead one so
is a one-town county a dea 1 one.
There is not a r article of doubt in our mimls but in the next few
years Joseph, Lostine and Wallow a will be thriving:. bustlh-.sr towns of
3000 people, ami teat very fact v. ill make Enterprise, the county seat.

mines, Ju-t as the mines in Coeur d' Alene and British Columbia, 150
r.iies fr.n Spokane, and the timber and agricultural country and water
power made Spokane a city of 100,000, so will the mines, timber, irrigti
i: d wl:eat lands and water power make Enterprise a town of 5,000 to 10,000.
We have said nothing of the stock industry. We have said nothing about
this ieing the finest county in the Northwest for sheep, cattle, barae.
hops. and dairying. The crop of wool for 1909 alone brought in $350,000
from the outside. How's that for pay roll? Of the 70,000 acres under
irrigation, every 40 acres will support a family and net $1000 a year profit
when projierly handled.
Why pay rent when you can buy prope.ty in Enterprise for half
what it is worth and on easy payments. We hive lots for sale in
Aider View and Boyd's Addition for $100.00 up and only $10.00 down,
3X0 a month with only 7 per cent intere.-t on deferred payments.
Co you realize that property in Enterprise h;s not advanced a dollar
s ree the panic?
And yet today, the quietest time of the year, the merchants n
business never was so good. and money so plenty. Not a house in town
'rent and yet there are a dozen dwellings in course of construction. We
have three clients wanting to rent business rooms and not one to be had
in town. We are on the eve of a great town development. The dull period
is over and Enterprise will grow faster in the next year than it has in the
last three years. Look out for the "knocker." You will recognize him when
viu meet him on the street. If you are from Missouri we will show yon.
