There is no decupation you can select that pays as good returns,, with the same amount of labor involved, as raising fancy fruit. More than four months of the year no work is required) while the hardest work is light as compared to general farming. . Invest $25 a Month to Earn $5000 a Year This is an opportunity to invest $25 a month of your salary in something within your reach. Our development plan for non-residents relieves you of personal management of your land. Your an nual income after the fifth year will be from $4,000 to $5,000. These figures are actually borne out by the experience of many men in the Umpqua Valley. Have a Home in Fertile Umpqua Valley , -The Umpqua Valley Is the cent etof the great fruit belt of the state. Rich bottom land, which ( will raise fruit9 and vegetables- with out irrigation. Average annuar'rainfair.35 inches. This is the earli est fruit belt in Oregon, and top prices are obtained in Portland and other markets for early vegetables and berries. The scenic beauty of this locality is not excelled on the Pacific cdast. An Orchard With an Income the First Year Inter-tree development yields a good income at once. Potatoes alone will yield $150 net per acre each year, which will more than pay for your land before the trees come into bearing. The land is ready to cultivate. No trees, no stumps, no brush, and the price is less than is asked for uncleared land in the more extensively advertised localities. We Will Plant Your Trees arid Develop Your Property If you are not ready to live upon land and develop it for yourself, we will set out your trees, plant can taloupes and vegetables between the trees, furnish the seed and labor absolutely free of cost to you, market the produce and at the end of the season pay you half of the profits. We have an orchardist of twenty years' experience who will superintend this work, and a member of this company will be on the ground keeping in close touch with the situation. The soil of this valley is of such great depth that it has been proven that inter-tree development does not detract from the growth and vigor of the trees. One half of the profits of this development plan ought to pay for a tract in two years, set out the trees, and provide a profit besides. . . - Call at Our Office for Full Information Concerning This Wonderful Fruit Country, and Arrange to Go and See the Land for Yourself w.
