INVESTORS
North Coast Land Co. Says
Wenatchee People Are
Interested.

C. E. Hutton, who for the past
several weeks has been here as a
representative of the North Coast
Land company, is meeting with very
decided success selling Canadian
land. Wenatchee people have a
great deal of money for investment
purposes and some of it is being in
vested in wheat land as we'll as Or
chard land, and as result of this
disposition Mr.. Hutton is selling
great deal of Canadian land
The North Coast Land company
has been actively engaged in business
less than a year, and TO say that it
has been a huge success is putting It
mildly. The officers are. Mr.. Chan
dler S. Edwards, president; Mr. F. l.
Whitney, vice president; Mr.. L. c.
Porterfield, secretary-treasurer. The
officers, directors and stockholders
are among the wealthiest people in
Canada, England and the United
States. The general offices of the
company are in the Winch Building,
Vancouver, B. c., where it is en-
gagged in the business of buying agri-
cultural. fruit and timber lands, and
Vancouver city real estate. 1t has
selling forces throughout Canada and
the United States. At the. present
time it is making a speciality Of Fort
George farming lands, and has estab-
liShed an office at that point The
lands in the vicinity of Fort George
have only recently been put on the
market, but the sales have been
something phenomenal. Fort George
and the surrounding country bids
fair to be one of the best real estate
centers in British Columbia This
company has some of the very choic-
est properties in that vicinity, and
is in position to satisfy prospective
buyers of first class lands. Bona
fide settlers are always given the
preference. The North Coast Land
company is also largely interested
in farming lands in the Nechaco,
Buckley, and other valleys along the
Grand Trunk Pacific railway in Cen
trail British Columbia. In fact the
company makes specially of hand
ling farming lands along the new
railway. 1t is also the owner of the
townsite of Telkwa, at the junction
of the Telkwa and Buckley rivers. on
the line of the G. T. P. Ry., which
at present is the only real live town
on the railway in British Columbia,
excepting Prince Rupert. The COM
pany has large holdings of Vancou-
yer city real estate. both business
and residence properties. 1t owns
large tracts of timber which are ex-
ceptionally we'll located, covered with
splendid growths of the best kinds of
trees. The officers of the company
are all we'll known business men,
who have built up a magnificent
clientele through their energetic and
up to date business methods.
Testimony of Wenatchee Man.
A we'll known resident of Wenat-
chez recently returned from a trip
in the Buckley and Nechaco valleys
and speaks in the most enthusiastic
terms of the magnificent country he
passed through. This gentleman is
to return to British Columbia about
the 25th of this month. He bears
out all that is told by Mr.. Hutton,
the local representative The North
Coast Land company has assets over
two million dollars, with a paid up
capital of S750,0OO, and has the
Bank of Montreal, Canada's strong
est bank, on its prospectus. Mr..
Hutton reports a great number of
sales and inquiries for British Col
umbia lands where the government
reports go to show that the climate
along the line of the Grand Trunk
Pacific railway in British Columbia
is about the same as in Wenatchee
with milder winters. Mr.. Hutton
can be found at the Wenatchee hotel
at the present time.
