Are Ym Providing For a Mainiy Bay? 3 1 Are you looking ahead, planning for the future, or are you just drifting? No matter how old or how young you are, you are wearing out your strength and your health. You are not a man that will last forever. The day will come to all of us when we have to depend upon, something other than labor for our living. Which shall it be, a tract of land that will support you and yours, or shall we depend upon our children? The an swer is not hard to find. LARGE FARMS Are not within reach of air, and not every per son would like a large tract of land with its consequent great responsibilities. Knowing this fact, Messrs. Roe & Calvin, owners of some of the finest land in the valley, and ad joining the city of Enterprise on the west, have concluded to cut up a part of the farm into small tracts and place it on the market in quantities and on terms that gives any one an opportunity to become the owner of profitable real estate. To further aid those who want property that will soon be highly productive the'owners are agreeing to. plant the land to apple trees and prune, trim, cultivate and care for them.forthree years. THESE ORCHARD TRACTS Have been examined by the best horticultu ralists in the state and pronounced firstclsss in every respect. The tracts vary in size from a half acre to 5 or 10 acres and the price per acre is from $150 to $253. This price in every case pays for the fruit traes, the planting and care of them for three years; thus turning over to the purchaser at the end of the time a four-year-old orchard. While you are going ahead making a living during the next three years a small tract right near the city is growing into a commercial orchard. PICK AN INCOME From the trees on your own land, without assuming any of the hard work in caring for and cultivating them while coming into matur ity. Look around you; how many wealthy men are there who do not own more or less real es tate? Find one person who will not admit it is the best investment in the world. Look at your own experience. How many chances have you had to make good buys and did not have the courage to take them? THE TERMS The easiest you ever saw. Ten per cent down and five per cent per month. A $200 tract will cost you $20 down, and $10 per month until the whole amount is paid.
