when we say that RIVERSIDE OR
CHARDS IS THE BEST IN THE
WILLAMETTE VALLEY. That is not
only our opinion, but it is the opinion of
everyone who has seen it, of those, who
have tested the soil, of those who know
what will.grow on Riverside Orchards.

RIVERSIDE ORCHARDS joins the city of
McMinnville is right on the city limit line.
With the introduction of the electric railway next
year and the opening up of the different indus
tries of McMinnville, the city must naturally
do as all other towns on this coast are doing
at the present time increase in population very
rapidly. INCREASED POPULATION
MEANS INCREASED VALUES IN TOWN
AND A NATURAL MOVEMENT TOWARD
THE SUBURBS. You can readily see there
fore, that RIVERSIDE ORCHARDS TRACTS
which we are NOW SELLING IN ACREAGE
can be RESOLD in the course of a few years
AS CITY LOTS. An acre divides up into about
seven city lots. You can FIGURE FOR YOUR
SELF THE IMMENSE PROFIT that would be
made by buying a tract in RIVERSIDE ORCHARDS
simply to hold as an investment of this kind.
By the time your walnut orchard has matured, not
only will the value of the property have increased
from the general building up of McMinnville, but to
day a walnut orchard in bearing with a good equal
crop is worth not less than $1000 an acre. Mrs. Vcroo
man values her land at $1500 per acre, so again we say
there is positively no better investment in Oregon to
day than a five acre tract at RIVERSIDE ORCHARDS.
No Danger of Loss
The walnut is different from most fruit, inasmuch
as it does not spoil. You can market your crop in
the fall of the year or store it until there is a bigger
demand and a higher nrice. It isn't like an anni w h-,c
to be put in cold storage, or like the grape that is likely

CHERRIES
Yamhill county excels all other parts of the world in its production of
fine cherries. Oregon is regarded as the home of the cherry, while !iti
acme of success has been reached in Yamhill county: v '
At the third annual cherry fair, held at Salem during the summer of 1908,
.Yamhill county carried away the grand prize cup. This success. won the
laurels; from two other counties that have always claimed the climax of
n. cherry production.
The Royal Ann, Bing, Lambert, H'oskins and Waterhouse cherries are
the five best varieties grown anywhere. These thrive best in just such land
as is found in RIVERSIDE ORCHARDS. Fur of these varieties originated
in the Willamette valley." , -
Profit from Yamhill cherries is greater than from any other fruit, many
trees having been known to yield $20, $30 and $40 in a single season. From
$300 to $600, and even more, is common per acre.
We will plant, in addition to the walnuts, SEVENTEEN TREES OF
CHERRIES to each acre of ground. Cherries begin bearing in three years,
so that you see by the time we turn it over to .you in the fourth year you
will be having a nice income from the cherries alone. .

The consumption of walnuts in the United States is 35,000,000 pounds, while the
annual production is only 12,000,000. It will take a long time before-enough orchards
are planted to make up the difference. The imported nut is far inferior to; those
grown in the United States and the Oregon nut is the superior to anything grown
in te United States. Oregon walnuts command 2 cents a pound more than any others.
