Since this project has been agitated
it has also become known that a large
eastern syndicate is quietly taking op-
tions on several thousand acres of land
within 10 miles of Salem. If the neces-
sary quantity can be secured and this
fact is now practically certain, these
lands will all be similarly treated. The
fruit, however, will not be confined 10
apples, but the land will be planted TO
whatever fruit it is best adapted to.
This movement is one of the most
important in the history of the fruit
development in Marion county, and
will do much toward advancing the
fruit interests in the Willamette val
ley. The method of this syndicate is
TO sell the orchards in small tracts to
eastern buyers.
