A. None better n tho world. Tho weather burenu reports show from 310 to
330 sunihlne days per year In tho Dei Chutes Valley. Tho air Is light
and very dry. nnd withal vory bracing, and tho writer has known of mnny
persons unable to obtain health even nt tho most favorable health resorts
having perfect health In tho Des Chutes Vnlloy; especially ono gentleman
who had gono oven to China nnd Japan nnd tl Switzerland, but found llttlo
benefit. or tho past nine ears he has been a resident of tho Des Chutes
Valley, and has good health.
A. This Is true of 99 Irrigation districts In every 100. In nny part of tho world,
but It Is not true of this tract. At n depth of about 20 feet thero Is a brick
clay formation beneath which wator clear, pure, sweet and sparkling, may
bo found for domestic purposes. In ono day a woll may bo sunk through
this soft formation, a small board box Is then Inserted for the pur
pose of keeping tho clay from falling In, and tho farmer Is thereafter
supplied with hlgh-class wator for nil domestic purposes. This water and
fuel from tho black pines, form vory valuable considerations to any person
contemplating tho purchase of nn Irrigated farm In fact, tho beautiful
urroundlng-s, the depth of soil, proximity to lartre cttlei, abundance of
wtter nrt fuel inrtw thl tract very, very valuable.
A. No.
Yes.
A. About 10.000 acres will be supplied with water In tlmo for the crop of
1 i.11 '"" ,"', "' 'arse orew or men are engaged In the work
""""""j "' ni )mni, ana tne wortc is progressing rapidly.
of
No. thero Is no choice The land In the entire tract Is alike, deep and level
and free from stone. Persons coming from the Kast to look at the land,
and who bought before coming to look at It. declare that the last man
buying will get as choice a piece of land as the man who bought first.
