From this city, as a hub, in every direc tion, radiate first-class wagon roads, lead ing to tracts of river bottom lands of inde scribable fertility and scenic beauty, nest ling, as they do, among vine-clad hills that keep watch over peaceful orchard scenes beneath. The largest of these valley farms, containing some two thousand acres, and probably the best large one in Douglas County, was recently purchased for subdivi sion into ten and twenty-acre tracts, and is now on the market, the plat of survey being ready for inspection. The soil of these lands is a sandy loam, a true sedimentary deposit, as rich as can be found anywhere THIS LAND SELLS ITSELF This is one of the very few proposi tions that speaks a language all its own. It tells of fertility, scenic beauty, beautiful environments, peace and plenty in old age, freedom from business cares, rest from professional worries, independence, affluence, words of enchantment that have ever swayed us all. in the stateand adapted for apples, pears, cherries, peaches, plums, all small fruits, as well as potatoes, asparagus, celery, onions, cantaloupes and water melons in greatest abundance. These are Actual Facts, not a game of perhaps, as everything enumerated above (and other things too numerous to mention, such as wheat, rye, oats, English walnuts, etc.) are now growing in great profusion upon this tract or ones ad jacent. I Came, I Saw and was Conquered, will surely be said of any man or woman who sees this land. Be you lawyer, doctor, business man, or what not we advise you to keep away unless you are ready to snap up the best investment you ever saw. OUR PROPOSITION to you we consider the fairest ever offered the investor in orchard tracts and we speak advisedly in making the statement as, from time to time, we have had under advisement many propositions, from various sections of the Northwestern fruit belt and have elaborated our plan only after months of arduous labor and hundreds . of dollars spent in finding the exact tract of land to suit our needs and the taste of the most critical buyer. We will plant these ten-acre tracts to the best varieties of trees and take care of them for three years for the exact cost to us, which will be in the neighbor hood of fifty dollars per acre for the entire term, in cluding cost of trees and planting. We will also rent your tracts for you during these years and allow you one-half of the net profits derived from planting pota toes, onions, cantaloupes, etc., between the trees. By this plan, at the expiration of the above term of years, you will have a three-year-old orchard nearly, if not quite, paid for, worth in the open market, at that time, five hundred dollars per acre. The above offer will not interest the man who buys for immediate occupancy, but will most certainly com- j? NOW Is the time to buy, whether for a home or for investment "Get on the wagon". J& j? mand the attention of the general investor or the man who, within the next few years, intends devoting him self to fruit culture. THINK IT OVER, and if interested GET BUSY or the "Live Wire" will beat you to it. Roseburg has a fruit growers' association, with a membership of sixty-two, many of whom are making five hundred dollars net per acre each year and you might just as well "join the band" now and quit the everlasting worry attendant upon your present busi ness or profession, as the case may be. Why not make up your mind now; get one of our 10-acre tracts and be independent. Our climate is perfect, our rainfall is adequate (35 inches per year), and our scenery is beyond compare. We have good schools, churches, and an American born population. C!LD HARDING & ENGEN, 2 C. D. BEALE, Special Representative, Cor. Cass & Sheridan sts. Rowtturg, Oregon. LOCAL NEWS.

The results of our school work during recent sessions fully demonstrate the excellent judgment of our school board In the selection of teachers, and while some of our teachers of last year have, of their own will, sought other fields of work, and other lines of employment, their places have been filled by in structors of large experience and of the very best professional and moral qualifications. Our principal, Prof. George Sawyer, needs no mention here, further than to Bay that he will again be in charge of our high school department, and of the teach ers' class training department.
