Get off on the riht foot and keep going. Don't continue to throw money away by paying rent, vhcn you can own your own home. How much did you pay out for rent during 1907? Stop and figure it out. What have you got to show for it? Nothing but a bunch of receipts. Suppose You had put this money into building a home and buying a lot ? You'd have something to show for your coin, wouldn't you? The same thing holds true in the coining year. Are you going to waste your mazuma all year, and have 1908 net .you noth ing but a living? Ask your wife about it, and see what she says. Building is going to be cheaper this year than ever. You can buy practically at your own terms. We sell all kinds of lumber everything needed in any kind of a house from a small cabin to a palatial mansion. We also sell Booth-Kellv lumber.

Actuated by thin opinion, the curnmiiy has never yet misrepresented aH to the diameter of tluf soil or tint quality of the fruits produced on same, with the result, that all who have bought orchards through this agency so far eould Hell out, if desirable, at an advance of 1(H) to 500 per cent above the purchase price. This is a history of which we are proud, and we shall continue along the same lines in the future. Men who come into this favored valley looking for a new place of abode are entitled to fair treatment. We only ash of them that'they will exercise ordinary business sagacity in investigating the resources of the valley before buying. There are three tilings t lie average investor wants, if he buys country property in this valley. First and foremost, he wants a liuine wnere he and his family can enjoy good health and the fruits of this section. I'sually he wants to get located where he is within e;isv reach of the hading commercial centers nnd close to local markets. And he always wimts property which will bring in a good income and is sure to advance in value as the valley develops. Will lie be apt 1o tiud this combination in the hands of the street corner broker or the average "butter in" who persecutes the houiesi-eker about the hotel offices? When one considers that, the situation is not urging many men with good holdings to sacri fice their property here, it is up to the horncseeker to apply to the regular dealer for what, he wants. If lie wants the VERY BEST IN THE WHOLE VALLEY he must apply to the Koguo Kiver Land Company. When in Med ford, do not fail to call on the AT THE EXHIBIT BUILDING. Rogue River Land Go.
