THE North Bank Road, now open, brings in dose touch with the outside the most marvelous fruit section In this entire Northwest. The sunny slopes along the north bank of the Columbia, just east of the Cascade Mountains, have long been known as producing the first fruits of the . season, away ahead of any locality north of California. Heretofore no successful means of transportation could be had, consequently not much interest has been given to the fruit Industry. A few "faithful ones,' however, have continued enthusiastic over the future possibilities of the section and have not been negligent in planting and caring fr their orchards, especially of the kinds for which there Is such a great demand. These orchards today are living witnesses of what enormous crops will grow on such small tracts of ground. The finest peaches, apricots, grapes, apples and other tree fruits grown here have no superior on the Pacific Coa-st, while English walnuts and almonds ma ture to the height of perfection. Corn and melons are as easily raised as pota toes In the Willamette Valley. A few miles east of Columbus, about 30 miles east of The Dalles, and a little below Dr. Blalock's large orchard on Blalock .Island, Is a body of about 80oo acres, some 700 feet above the river, which Is the choicest of the land. A good por tion of thla la now under bond by men closely allied with the North Bank Rail road interests. These representatives have not been slow in getting control of every entire tract that could be secured. The whole will be platted and sold In B to 10-a.cre tracts, and more than this, they will plant these and care for them for the purchaser If they are not now In position to go onto the property. The lands are all in a high state of cultivation and the remarkable feature here Is that no irrigation is re quired, more than that is carried in the gravel beds lying 20 to 30 feet below the surface of the soil. By surface cultiva tion the moisture rises by capillary at traction, and no injury to crops from lack of moisture is ever manifest. It Is safe to say this special feature of natural sub-Irrigation found here, is exceptional, to say the least, especially where the cli mate Is favored with almost continual sunshine. The flrst 25 purchasers will be favored with low prices, considering the actual values of the lands to orchard a For further information call on the Portland agents, B. B.
