You are going west, anu lhe queo'
Non is, where to stop" Let us give
,ou a few reasons why Kennewick.
washington, under the new irrigation
.vstem of the Northern Pacific lrri-
cation Company affords the best OPP
nortuuities for family seeking new
home or capitalist seeking an in
vestment.
F1RsT.-Kennewick lies in the CEN
ter Of a district comprising 14,ooo
acres of land, now being put under the
most modern and complete system Of
irrigation that is possible by the COM
.,nation Of experience and capital.
sEcoND.-Its location gives it I'M
.,rnassed markets for its products, be-
ing midway between Spokane and Sc
attle on the line Of the Northern Pa
cifc Railway.
THIRD.-Kennewick lands are far
cheaper than any similar lands can pc
poueht. for the reason that the Irri-
ration Company is closely allied with
the Northern Pacific Railway, and has
had in view the upbuilding Of pros
nervous community on its line, and has
therefore given the public the benefit
Of any possible saving in cost.
FOURTH.-The climate is ideal.
While only 1866 feet above sea level, on
the beautiful Columbia River, its prox.
unity to the snow clad Cascade
Mountains makes it land Of sunshine,
with air pure and healthful where
malaria and kindred diseases are prac.
tically unknown, while those suffering
from any bronchial or rheumatic af-
lection find here instant and perman-
eat relief.
FIFTH.-The low altitude makes
the winters very mild and gives the
earliest growing season known In the
entire Northwest, enabling the farm
er thereby to deliver his products into
the markets in advance Of all other
parts of the Northwest. 1t is unneces-
sary to state the advantages obtained
by the first delivery of berries,
peaches, grapes, melons and all classes
Of fruits, the prices realized making
the adage 1.-The early bird catches the
worm" only too true in this case.
SIXTH.-While many farms In this
country are successfully raising crops
Of grain, fruit and vegetables without
irrigation, on lands costing only Ave
to twelve dollars per acre that are
better and more prolific producers
than most eastern farms, still the ma
ture Of the soil and climate is such
that with irrigation (artihcial water
lng) the yield is increased both in size
and marked value at least five fold.
1t is impossible, in this small space,
10 tell you of the many wonderful ad
vantages accruing to the early settler
IN the Kennewick country. A per-
sonal investigation will more than re-
pay you.
