The Beaver Land q Irrigation
Go. is now selling 1000 acres, and
will sell 1900 acres additional
when their reservoir system shall
have been completed.
These reservoirs will require
from two to three yeurs for COM
pletion.
To sell 1900 acres the Beaver
company will have to take several
thousand people through the tract,
and show them what has been ac-
oomplished by those who bought
the first 1000 acres.
Hundreds will want improved or
partially improved places, so those
who buy in Beaver Park now will
get the benefit of all the advertis-
ing the company must do to sell
the remainder of its land.
Every dollar you spend in
Beaver Park will double in two
years. You can buy twenty acres
now and by improving it, sell 10
acres for enough to clear 10 acres
in two years
You will not doubt this if YOU
take the time to see Beaver Park
1t 10 the most beautiful location in
Colorado. The soil is finer lor
fruit than any other, and the land
will all ultimately be worth $1,000
an acre.
