If these citie had but uuited in theii

ORCHARD
We are aide to offer for a few days the most desirable
young orchard within a few miles of Medford, which
we have been able to offer our customers for a year,
and within reach of the man with reasonable capital.
The tract consists of 272 acres of orchard land, with
GO acres in cultivation and 45 acres in orchard of the
right varieties of fruit, just coming into bearing.
Thirty acres of the orchard is in Spitzenberg and New
town apples and Cornice pears. Fifteen acres in
prunes, with good dryhouse on premises. Fully CO
acres more of good fruit land on the tract, covered with
brush, but with enough firewood on same to pay foV
clearing and setting to fruit. Now is the time to act in
this matter, for values are advancing so rapidly that
only the rich can afford an orchard in this valley in a
few years. Why shouldn't values advance, when the
right kind of an orchard is yielding such fabulous re
turns ?
