ARE GOING
SUNDAY

The Sunday boat will take q num-
Der OF our citizens and several others
from out of town to Pateros. From
the river they will take rigs and
drive up the Methow river and look
over the lands under the Methow
Canal company's high line ditch.
Those who should know say, "The
Methow is another Wenatchee," AMI
such being the case, those who buy
land Ia this fertile valley should
make wonderful showing on their
investment.
Those who have been up into the
Methow valley declare that its pos
sibilities are beyond anything they
have ever seen. Such being the case
and from the fact that land sells at
a low figure and on easy terms-tak-
ing into consideration in addition,
with this land you are given free
water right-there is no reason in
the world why this investment
should not prove equal to those
with which we are familiar in and
around Wenatchee.
II you have time, we think you
can spend it to advantage With us
on this little trip-it doesn't cost
much and it is most instructive.
The time Is coming, and very short
ly, when you will gladly pay us five
times what we ask for this land to-
day. Come in and we will tell you
why.
