BEAUTIFUL ENGLEWOOD RANCH
A splendid property, on the main Umpqua river, and having
marvelously fertile soil and climate conditions, with splendid timber
and excellent domestic water piped throughout house, barn and
numerous lots and feed corrals. On account of the several sur
gical operations and the recent hospital experience of Mr. Engle,
making It necesary for blm to spend much of his time In hospitals,
and for financial reasons, he has concluded to sell that splendid
country estate. This Is not an ordinary or even an average ranch;
but has all the requirements of a first class country home, where
one can have tho maximum of both comfort and profit, and live
there under excellent climatic and all other most satisfactory condi
tions. There are 870 acres, well Improved and most productive, for
general farming, stock, dairying and for all kinds of fruit and ber
ries and Is all garden land of the highest productiveness. Haa about
four miles of main Umpqua River frontage. The river bottom lands
have twenty feet or more of excellent soli. No overflow. Soil on
slopes and benches is also deep and rich, excellent for fruit and
all farm and garden purposes.
The parks of spreading cak, and the fir forests, all ln an ex
cellent parking system, are the wonder and admiration of all nature-loving
people who see this splendid ranch, which is in a class
by itself. Write, phone or see J. M. Engle, or any of his family
on the Englewood ranch for prices and terms, on part or all of the
property. A very low price will be made for quick action. Don't
miss the opportunity of your life to secure the best country home
that may be found anywhere around the globe. ENGLE, Kellogg, Or.
