City Property in Enterprise, no where else canyou buy propert so cheap considering resources of the town. Wal
low, Lostineand Joseph should double in the next year this means Enterprise will have 5,000 in five years, situ
ated as it is in the heart of the county surrounded by 100,000 acres of irrigated land, vasttimber resources, enormous
acreage of dry land farming, center of a great sheep, cattle, and horse country, best schools in Eastern Oregon, fine
climate, good water, and good class of citizens. LISTEN, Enterprise will be connected with another transcontinental
railroad in two years-buy before the boom strikes. Did you ever know so much town property changing hands this
time of year the dullest time for all kinds of businessl Buy now before property takes great advance.
Business lots, $600 to $1000. Good 7 room house, corner lot close in, $1,250. Good 6 room house,
barn, well improved, one-fourth block, will soon be good business property, only $2000. Lots in Boyd's
Sub-Division, $150 to $200; in Alder View, $175 to $300 easy terms on all this property.
