We all do. There's a heap of satisfaction in working 'round your own fire side. There never was a more golden opportu nity to make a home than in the White Salmon valley. The soil and climatic conditions are just right for strawberries and fruits of all kinds. Ten acres of this choice land will make a delight ful home and a splendid.income. To illustrate: J. C. Clarkson, from 5 acres in strawberries clears $1000. The other 5 acres are in young fruit trees, and when these come into bearing he will double his income. This rancher, content with his small farm, made a living and tucked one thousand dollars away for the rainy day. Can you do this on your 160 acres of wheat land, or after living on wages in the great con gested centres of America ? The strawberry plants grow on the rich southern slope of the valley. They are from ten days to two weeks earlier than those of Hood River, commanding the highest market price. They are grown without irrigation and thus save all the labor, expense and worry connected with irrigated land. Or perhaps you prefer to raise apples. In the foot hills you will find the ideal orchard site for large, finely flavored and well colored apples. Fruit experts who have made a careful study of conditions of the soil and climate pronounce it one of the richest in the world, as one leading expert remarked: "Here is the home of the Yellow Newtown Pippin and Spitzenberg." This land may be bought from $10 to $40 per acre, and in a few years will be worth ten times that sum.
