WILL ORGANIZE
AN ASSOCIATION
Fruit Growers of the Lake Chelan
District Will Combine Their
interests.

T. A. Wright, one of the best and
most favorably known residents of
Chelan county, passed thorugh We
natchee yesterday evening on his re-
turn to his home on Lake Chelan
from a business trip to Seattle Mr.
Wright is fruit grower of the Che
Ian district who has always taken an
active part. in exploiting the re-
sources of his home community and
has always been among the foremost
to boost the interests of this entire
county. He is a thoughtful, sub
stantial citizen of the character that
have made this wonderful section
the most important fruit producing
portion of the state.
Mr.. Wright has been a resident of
the Chelan country for many years
and about two years ago sold his
first ranch. He now owns q place
with about Is acres of young or
chard, some of which will come into
bearing this year.
He stated to a World reported that
the fruit growers of the Lake Che
Ian district propose to form an as

DEVELOPIN WENATCHEE
VALLEY FRUIT LANDS
Novel Idea Advanced by The Wenachee Orchard Bonds Com
pany-Guarantees Profit of Six Per Cent
on the Investment

semi-annually, besides which the
bond holder receives one-half of the
profits of the orchard over and
above the dividend. The other half
of the profits goes to the Orchard
Bonds Company in payment for
clearing, cultivating and irrigating
the land, buying the trees, taking
care of the orchard and doing all
the necessary work until the orchard
is in full bearing~a and on paying ba-
sis, which work is done at it's own
expense. 1t also manages and cares
for the orchards in every way includ-
ing the picking, packing and market
ing of the fruit, etc.
The property the company is Of
fering to the bond holders is tract
of 15S acres, near Cashmere in the
heart of the Wenatchee valley fruit
growing district. On this tract there
are ten acres of bearing orchard, 80
acres of orchard land below the
ditch with perpetual water right,
and the rest is pasture and woodland
above the irrigating canal. All the
orchard land not now in bearing will
be put in shape and planted to trees
by the company at it's own expense
right away.
The plan of the Wenatchee Or
chard-Bonds Company is meeting
with much favor among the invest
ing public. 1t not only gives to the
investor six per cent annual divi-
dend, but gives him an opportunity
to reap some of the large profits that
are obtained from Wenatchee or
chards, and these profits will be in
creasing from year to year.
The purchaser of one of these
bonds is not required to live on the
land or be encumbered in any way
with it's management. The reasons
that assure him that the orchards
will have the very best care possible
are that the organization of the COM
pany is in the hands Of well known
and practical business men, and also
the fact that the Wenatchee Orchard
Bonds Company gets it's pay for its
work out of its share of the profits
from the orchards. Thus for it's
own protection it must see to it that
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1907-03-28

the orchards are So handled as to
produce the greatest profits.
The formation of the company will
be of much benefit to the Wenatchee
valley in a general way. 1t will not
only help to advertise the valley and
direct peoples attention to the enor-
nous profits made by our fruit grow
ers, but many of the purchasers of
bonds will spend part of their time
in the valley and on the property in
which they have an interest. 1t will
also direct g3od deal of capital into
the valley which will be utilized in
improving and setting out orchard
lands not now in cultivation.
1t is claim made by Wenatchee
people that there is only one We
natchee valley, and that it's fruit is
in a class by itself. 1t is evident
that many outside people know
enough about the Wenatchee valley
to think the same. In Seattle there
are several firms and corporations
which are advertising fruit lands for
sale situated in different irrigation
portions of Washington and Oregon,
and every one of these are referring
to Wenatchee in order to show the
large profits from fruit raising and
the kind and quality of fruit that can
be raised. They are not using the
statements and afidavits frdm their
own fruit growers to show what is
actually being done in thasss own re-
spective districts. but mar. &! .f,en
are using the letters from Wenat-
chez people and, of course, are fol-
lowing these by saying that their
district is going to be just as good.
This dQes not in any way act to the
detriment of Wenatchee, because it
is the old story of people always pre-
ferring the original when a thing is
put up to them as being "just as
good" -
AS stated in the foregoing, the
men behind this company are of the
highest standing and great care was
exercised by them in organizing the
company to make the prop,Asition
safe and sure investment and place
it on the same plane occupied by the
leading financial institutions of the
state.

than ever since his visit to Seattle

Mr. Wright believes that it will
prove to be to the best interests of
the several county organizations and
the members to place salaried man

M. o. Tibbits returned yesterday
morning from Seattle, where he had
been in the interests of the Wenat-
chez Orchard-Bonds company, of
which he is the president. This COM
pany was organized to handle We
natchee valley fruit land, and the
proposition it presents is entirely
unique, and, as fair and equitable
business proposition, is most attrac-
tive to the investor. The company
was organized by and includes
number of the most prominent, sub
stantial and conservative men in the
state. The officers are M. o. Tib-
bits, president; D. D. Olds, secre-
tary; Robt. r. Fox, vice-president;
and Geo. R. Fisher, treasurer. The
officers are also directors and the
other directors are w. T. Clark, pres
ident of the First National bank of
Wenatchee, F. M. Scheble, Mayor of
Wenatchee, Henry Carstens, presi-
dent of the Washington Fire Insur-
ance Co., L. l. Gregory, secretary Of
the Title Trust company, and Roger
R. Green, formerly chief justice of
the supreme court of the state of
Washington. The high standing of
these men both for private character
ind business probity is above re-
proach, and is too well known to re-
quire comment. Their connection
with the Wenatchee Orchard-Bonds
company is a sufficient guarantee
that the proposition that company
makes is absolutely sound and good.
The plan of the company is to buy
choice orchard land in the Colum-
bia valley. This property is to be
decided in trust to the Title Trust
Company of Seattle and divided into
individual interests or shares. These
are represented by orchard bonds
with a denomination of $500 each.
The bonds are sold to investors and
after the property is decided in trust
to the Title Trust Company it be-
longs to the bond holders, not to the
Wenatchee Orchard-Bonds Company.

a bond is purchasing a definite por-
tion of the orchard The bonds draw
