C. HARDING LAND CO., Portland, Or. I would like to know more about your proposed trip to the ROSEBURG HOME-ORCHARD TRACTS next Saturday. Please inform me how I can make the trip with you at no expense. NAME ADDRESS IMAGINE A lOOO-ACRE ORCHARD When the ROSEBURG HOME ORCHARD TRACTS have all been set out to trees, as they will this fall, what grander sight could one imagine next spring, with thousands of young trees shooting their first buds into the open. When this magnifi cent piece of bottom land is set out to orchard this fall, it will have the distinction of being the . largest single orchard in the state of Oregon. Looking at it again in the summer, when the potatoes, onions, radishes and scores of other vegetables are growing, one who is fortunate enough , to be the owner of one of these tracts will swell with pride and satisfaction to see what has been accomplished. By our method of exploiting the UMPQUA VALLEY, we are virtually setting a man up in business in a business that will never fail to produce a splendid income for his entire life. It seems to us- that the Jnter-tree development ought to bear all cost of the land, after the first payment and a few installments. Come with us Saturday to Rose burg and see what you think of it - Co IM(E 111 CdD 0 Fourth Street a r o u n d Floor Corner O If toe Board of Trade Bids.
