THE WALLACE FARM.
A Largo BODY of Fine I.nnd.

A Large Body of Fine Land.
Located two and one-half miles
north from the city Of Salem, on the
Polk county side of the Willamette
river, is a spot of ground that has
been made to bloom and blossom as
the rose. This tract OF land is known
as the Wallace farm, and comprises
333 acres OF as fertile and produc-
tive soil as can be found in the state
of Oregon.
This beautiful and fertile tract OF
land has gained much prominence
Throughout the country on account OF
the delicious fruit IL produces. Il
gives testifying demonstration of
what the land in the great Willamette
valley will produce when properly
cultivated. On this farm will be
found 75 acres of ground which Is de-
voted to the growing Of pears. con-
sisting mostly of the beautiful Bart
lett pear, while 40 acres are planted
I'm apple trees. bearing the celebrated
Spitzenberg. with a sprinkle OF the
beautiful and delicious Baldwin fruit
There are also a few acres devoted to
cherry trees. while the remainder OF
the farm is devoted to general farm
ing. embracing timber and pasture
lands.
They are equipped with three
power spraying outfits of the latest
design. In winter they spray with
the lime. sulphur and salt mixture
as an insecticide and furguscide, and
In summer with arsenate OF lead. be-
ginning about June II and spraying
about every fifteen days until the last
part of September. This method in-
sures the growing OF good, healthy
trees which produce an abundance of
fine fruit. which is demonstrated by
tho following figures:
In 1906 there were 10000 bushels
OF Bartlett pears and 5000 bushels
of fall pears gathered from this or
chard, besides 1900 bushels of APP
pies.
This orchard Is eighteen years old
and has always produced the finest OF
fruit, as the best care and attention
has always been given the trees.
The principal stock to be found on
the Wallace farm consists OF a fine
flock OF sheep and goats. They also
raise a large number OF hogs OF the
best breed. many OF which they let
run loose In the orchard TO eat up
the refuse from the ground. Plenty
OF good, fresh water Is always avail
able, while the fences. buildings.
etc, are kept in first-class order.

tial and most comfortable structure.

are all elegantly decorated with
beautiful flowers and many shade
trees OF different kinds. which beau
tify the place, and make ono think OF
ones childhood days down on the
farm. The entire farm Is well fenced
and kept In model condition. Good
stables and outbulldlngs, large gar
dens and conveniences Of all kinds
for modern farming make the Wal
lace farm an ideal one.
The farm Is under the supervision
OF Mr.. Charles A. Park. gentleman

ducing country. and has done much
TO advance horticulture in the state

boys as an example in life would get a

never touches intoxicating liquors. He
smokes cigars, and he chews tobacco,

like a roustabout. When he was on

years ago under indictment in connec-
