at Si:.uO. Then the Hccurtty Bavins
A Trust Company and Dr. Smith cut the
prli-a to luoo.ttuo. provided the option

the contention of the Government that

The value placed upon th west half
bv ths Government Is (100.0O0. and upon
the east half (150.0OO. or (J50.000 for the

a map showing the advantageous posi

SUNDALE
GARDENS
The difference between small
and large profits in garden truck
is the difference of two or three
weeks' time, when various vege
table crops are placed on the
market in April, May and June
the difference between high and
low prices. Sundale vegetables
and fruits are three weeks earlier
than districts closer to Portland.
Sundale has daily trains and Co
lumbia River competition on
freight rates. Don't overlook
that. Sundale gardens are plant
ed beginning March 1, and are
np March 15 to 20, and products
are in the big market in April.
Sundale new potatoes are sold
early in May at 3 to 5 cents per
pound. D. P. Allen, for years
nursery salesman in this region,
says: "Sundale is my choice for
early gardening." He has just
bought 30 acres.
