We arc now willing (o exhibit our confidence in the proposition by offering to permit actual settlers to select five to ten acres at
prices ranging from $150.00 to 100.00 per acre (including perpetual water right), and make their residence thereon without any cash
payment to this company for one or two years, and five to seven years in which to make final payment.
This Is an Unusual Offer, Therefore We Give Reasons
We have the utmost confidence regarding the productiveness of the soil with irrigation, and thousands of dollars worth of these
lands have been sold to non-residents and are, now in cultivation. To properly care fortius large improved acreage, and increase the
value thereof, as well as the thousands of acres of unsold lands whichNve own, it is ncc.cssa.uv to encourage bona fide settlers to bring their
families into our district. By so doing, it will enable non-residents who have had their lands planted to orchard to avail themselves of a
portion of the services of these scttlci-s and reduce the present cost of maintenance, and by reason of the large number pf families making
their residence in this district and cultivating their own tracts, the productiveness and value of our lauds will be proven, and in basing
our values on actual returns shown by these settlers we will, within one or two years, be .justified in asking more than double the price
which we could obtain at this date.
This proposition enables a bona-fide settler to obtain irrigated lands at less than qng-
half their present value without making any cash payment
This is, in fact, a rare opportunity for the right kind of men, who mean business, who are willing to work and devote their
entire time and attention to the cultivation of the soil to acquire valuable irrigated lands in the most beautiful and productive valley
in the world at no cost whatever. Rogue River Valley apples have taken first priy.es over every district in the United States ajid Canada.
and the climate of this vallev is alwavs referred to asN"THE ITALY OF AMERICA."
