LAND WILL

(Continued from page 3.)
Where fruit is to be &rown on
thes prairie lands it will do best
if the land has some roll, as this
Slves better drainage. Strawlwr
iles find such soils much to their
liking, as do- logans. evergreen black
berries, filberts, and. where the roll
is sufficient, apples, pears and prunes
do well. It is farms located on such
lands that mixed fruit and general J
tarming doea exceptionally well.
There Is also a limited acreage of
deep muck or beaver dam noil, rich,
retentive, black soils These are
especially adapted to the growing of
celery, cabbage and onlbn crop and
can be made to produce tremendous
crops of these vegetables. The Jap
anese blight has hit these sections
more than other sections of the val

. We hear a great deal of complaint
about the labor problem and diffi
culty of getting help to harvest our
crops after we have rals-nl thm.
This complaint comes more from the

There are highly Improved farms
that are selling much hlrher; prune
and loranberry lands in full bearing
golnc; aronnd 0 to $1000 an acre;
and worth it: paring rood returns
on the investment.
There are single English walnut
trees in California that have sold as
high as $5000. and the Salem dis
trict has walnut trees that will some
day sell for more.
And there is little of the 100.000
acres of land mentioned above that
will not grow as good Pranquette and
Mayette walnuts as can be. grown
anywhere in California: that will not
grow as good Barcelona and Du Chil
ler filberts as the world produces;
or better Bose pears or Ortley apples
than any other country or section
can grow; or better black raspberries
or evergreen blackberries or logan
berries or gooseberries and a long
list of other fruits and vegetables of
standard varieties than most sections
can grow.
Compare the land values here with
those of Germany before the war, at
$500 to $750 an acre;
Or with ordinary farm lands now
in Iowa, at $400 to $00 an acre;
Or with apple lands In the Wash
ington fruit districts at. around
$2500 an acre;
Or with orange and track lands
In California, at $1000 to $10,000 an
acre
And compare the possibilities of
profit on our lands at present prices,
and you will say the prices here are
yet very low.
If this thing were thoroughly un
derstood all over the United States
and all over the world, the Salem dis
trict would hot he so very long In
get tine a half million population, or
a million, or two millions.

We hear a good deal these days
about decreasing assets, like war ma
terials and non essential articles that
wear oat; and about increasing as
sets.
For generations to come, the lands
in the Salem district will be an in
creasing asset.
They will rrow In value as they
are put to their best productive
uses
As the nut trees become older;
As the fruit trees come Into full
bearing;
As the production of the soil be
comes greater through intensified
and diversified farming.

In short, this Is the best partially
undeveloped tannine district In the
United States or In the world for the

For the farmers who sre willing

culture.
. AVe are assured of the best possible

The new-comer may Invest In
farming lands in the Salem district
with full assurance of the truthful
ness of all the above.
A little later, no doubt, there will
come Into the market in the Salem
district some still cheaper lands

Some of these mar aell aronnd IS

Several sawmill companies in this
section are making a lot of sawed

policy; In regard to these lands has
yet been adopted, but. as a matter
of course, this Is being considered.
These lands will finally be put to
productive use.
