pect ' purchasers to pay" very much
more than a fair IntereBton the in
vestment. There Is no queatiou but
what specualtlon in fruit lands have
influenced abnormally other , laud
values. We have been led to believe
that the cheapest Innds in the north
west are to be found in Grande Ronde
valley. This Is a delusion, the laws .
of demand and supply regulate land
values the same' as other things. Tljfi
fact that few large farms have been
sold within the liU3t two years is significant."
'Another fnfct that is worthy of con
sideration Is that while Union coun
ty as a whole is steadily Increasing in
population few farms are being sub
divided, the increase being found
Iurgely in the cities. If one home
seeker in ten who Is shown over our
valley would locate there would be
ten farms sold in this county where
there Is one today. These intending
purchasers are purchasing in the
northwest one and all are delighted
with our beautiful valley but they are
largely locating - where lnnd values
are lower than here.
