It has unsurpassed-pure mountain water, is so situated that it is protected from-all higfe windsand is therefore ideally located for the growing of fruits. Immediately around Dallas and at several other localities in Polk county, there is a big acreage of prunes, which have proven the most profitable fruit to grow in this locality. Producing prune orchards can actually be purchased for from $400 an acre up, the mere value of such productive land. v :,:--:S:r. j, . r . . i. . ) j ' ' ' ' ' . . You have not seen the Willamette Valley unless you have viewed Dallas from one of the several hilltops in the vicinity. No prettier sight, winter or summer, can be found in all Oregon. Biiilded deep in the valley, with the LaCreole river winding through it, with thousands of acres of finely cultivated orchards to be seen on all sides, with the beautiful little city nestling at the base of the valley , a sight is presented that once seen is never forgotten A prime purpose of the Dallas Commercial Club is to protect homeseekers against imposition. We ask that before purchases are made that the facts be reported to us, and if there is a reason to believe that the purchaser is being imposed upon, it shall be our duty to give him the exact facts. We desire to build our county upon the sure foundation rock of prosperity for every newcomer.
