Tho Encalyntus Situation

~ET us get at the essential 1acts
in the case. In less than four
ka teen years the available stand oil
hardwood timber will be cut away, ac-
cording to United States Government
estimates. Industries representing
fifteen hundred million dollars OF IN
vested capital are absolutely depen-
dent on the hardwood supply. The
demand must be filed at any price,
and eucalyptus is the only hardwood
tree that can be grown in time to
meet it. The demand Is nOW and mill
men are In the market buying up every
stick of timber in sight on the stump.
At the present market value or eu-
calyptus timber, an acre OF California
land properly planted to eucalyptus
will produce a splendid income every
ten years from an output OF 100000
feet, board measure, of timber.
These are facts to be readily con-
flrmed, and no one could successfully
combat them.
There can be no question OF the OPP
portunity to the Orot1er. Take your
pencil and figure the yearly profit per
acre, based on the price at which you
can now purchase a eucalyptus grove
at Glenarden.
Our Proposition
1t is a matter of national Importance
to advance the planting of eucalyptus
timber on a large scale, and the Ameri-
can Forestration Company has entered
on a campaign that will result in
thousands of acres being planted to
the wealth-producing tree. We wish to
make the industry popular, and TO
drive the truth home in every quarter
that more money is to be made in
growing eucalyptus than in any other
product of the United States. An in
vestment in eucalyptus timber has the
basis of all wealth-lGnd.
AS foundation for our work we
have secured the best land in Cali
fornia under right natural conditions
and with ideal market facilities.
Planting heavily on our own account,
we offer investors the opportunity to
Join us and share in the great profits.
Our undertaking will extend over
period of many years, and we offer
the best and most business-like prop
osal that was ever presented to the
investing public. 1t calls for undi-
vided acreage purchase under attrac-
tive conditions, or on an equally de-
sirable basis whereby the purchaser
acquires separate acreage under War
ranty Deed Planting and care for
five years are included in the pur-
chase price.
Temporary Price,
To make the industry popular, and
extend the field of its sales, the
American Forestration Company has
set aside a limited acreage to be sold
at reduced prices, as follows:
$145 per Gcre--cdSh price.
S165 per dcre-inStdllmen price.
InstdIimeRt termSs
$1.00 per acre lCeekly or
$4.00 per acre monthly. =
These prices will be in effect until
January Is, 1910, il the acreage sat
aside at the price lasts. 1t will prob
ably all be sold before the date set.
Our friends are urged to apply at once
while the low prices prevail Sales
will be made first come first served,
with the provision that those who
state in their letters how much acre

1.-The results are far beyond any
thing they expected. The yield is
immense. especially on the farm of
Banker Van Giles, and, the prices
being what they are, every acre in
crop will easily pay for itself. All
are delighted, and are sending most
encouraging reports to their friends
in Holland. Some of these friends
are already on the way, and others
are preparing for coming next
spring. The colony of Hollanders
around South Heart and Beltield
will prove to be as happy and pros

in North Dakota. and Messrs.

Van Giles and the Rev Van den

their success.

on skin treatment, as follows:
Yes, have just come from beauti-
full Japan, and | must say the Japanese
women have many toilet formulas and
ideas which American women should
know
What do they use to make their
skin SO soft and velvety?
ANY American woman can use the
same treatment if she desires. Dis
solve a small original package of
mayatone in about eight ounces of
witch hazel. Massage the face, arms
and neck with this solution, once or
twice day, and you will shortly find
you have lovely, soft complexion,
and then the best of it all is that this
solution prevents the growth of hair,
and is absolutely harmless to the most
delicate skin. Make the solution your

why, yes-of course / use it. Just
