The Irrigation Age has an article
on the prune growing section of
California from which we clip the
following paragraph to show the
prices good prunes lands will bring:
"While the prunes of Kern county
are of such choice quality, one fact
should not be lost sight Of. 1t is
this Good prune land sells readily
in the Santa Clara valley for from
$3.50 to $500 an acre, and elsewhere
in the State commands not less than
$3.50 to $3.50. Yet in the Kern
delta the very choicest land may be
bought for $50 to $40 an acre, and
upon the easiest terms. This one fact
along ought to bring hundreds OF
settlers here
1t stands to reason that when the
Weiser section has proven its adop-
liability to that industry by being
actually able to point to extensive
orchards, that our lands would go ur
to the same figure.
