A careful investigation will convince the most
skeptica that fruit production under true horticu
tura conditions and scientific management is the
most profitable form of investment that can be
made. But it is not every one who is able to buy
and care for an orchard of his and the purpose
of this company is to make 1t possible for both the
small and large investor to share i'll the enormous
profits of a large commercial orchard operated in a
true fruit section where ideal horticultural condi-
tons prevail and where success is assured on
count of capable management.
An investment in land securities of this kind is
safe government bond and its earning power
and value of principal incomparaby better.

pert horticultursts under the SUPERVISION OF H. fo-
lett an experienced fruit grower Of Kennewick to
commercial varieties of apples with peach filters and
three rows of Strawberries between the trees Forty
acres are now in one year-old trees.
The net profits of the orchard, canning factory
and evaporating plant divided with the share
holders No salaries paid except to the orchard
superintendent and workmen
THE SECURITY
The land is owned in fee simple by the Kennewck
Highlands Orchards company There is no encum-
brance of any kind against the land or property OF
the company. The land and the holdings will be
worth not less than $5OO,O0O in five years.
THE EARNING POWER
Ia addition to per cent, payable semi annually,
which the company guarantees, the stakeholder IS
entitled to share in the net profits of the companys

There is very little doubt but what the company will
pay an annual dividend of 80 per cent to 100 per
cent after the trees reach the bearing period 800
share will readily sell for $500 to 500 when the or
chard is fully developed. The time to invest in the
company's stock is now-when you can get in on the
organization basis.

This extensive terrlLory, COLL
prising about one-fourth Of the
total area Of Chile, contains, approx
mately, 100000 acres of land. and
owes its present prosperity princi-
pally to sheep breeding and the work
lngs Of its placer mines.
The climate Of the territory Of Ma
gellan varies greatly, being cold In
the far north and temperate and in
MIGRATING in the middle and southern
zones. Parts Of the territory, espe-
cially the southern portions, are heav-
fly wooded, and the damp, humid eli
mate Of this part Of Chile produces
an abundant, vigorous and luxuriant
vegetation and causes the formation
at some places on the coast Of con-
siderable deposits Of turf. The south
ernmost points Of Chile, with the ex-
ception of some dry lands near the
frontier OF the Argentine Republic, is
unsuited for stock raising, but the
southern, middle and northern sec
tons Of the mainland Of the Territory
Of Magellan are well adapted to the
raising Of stock.
The breeding Of sheep, which is now
the largest and most prosperous In
dustry Of the territory, dates back to
1876, when Gov. Duble Almeida bought
from the Falkland islands the first
consignment Of sheep for breeding
purposes to this part Of the republic.
Notwithstanding the unpromising re-
suits Of the earlier efforts at sheep
raising in the Territory Of Magellan,
this industry was soon established on
a frm footing and has been increasing
by leaps and bounds from that date to
the present time.
In 1884 the government conceived
the plan Of leasing to private persons
or companies tracts Of from 1000 to
10000 hectares 5000 or $4,000 acres)
Of government lands for terms Of from
ave to 20 years to be devoted to stock
raising and l,26T hectares (1,312.-
900 acres) were leased during that
year. Subsequently new concessions
were made, until, in 1896, about S,000.-
900 hectares (7,l13,000 acres) were
disposed Of in this part Of Chile to be
used in the stock raising industry. In
1908 a law was passed permitting the

tory Of Magellan and the FIRST sale at

price Of Sal pesos (S1.9D per hec-
tare (2.471 acres). The remaining
public lands in the Territory Of Magel-
Ian, consisting of about 1,756,S62 hec-
tares (4,Sl1. 1000 acrss). and which
were sold at public auction from 1904
TO 1906, were disposed Of at an aver
age Of 7.27 pesos (ta.65) per hectare

fifths of the entire output OF these two
products.
Several industries closely allied to
and depending upon stock raising are
at present being exploited in the Ter
ritory of Magellan. In 1906 there were
seven tallow factories in the aforesaid
territory, having a capital Of 425,000
pesos (S155, 1859, with an annual out
nut valued at 100000 pesos (s704,=.

plants in the territory. The one at
Rio Seco has a capital Of 100000
pesos (S547 5000. In 1907 this plant
exported 10000 frozen wethers. The
factory at Punta Delgada, belonging
to the STOCK Raising Company OF

the only meat-canning establishment
now in operation in the territory. The
capital invested in this plant Is 70O,-

The climate is 30 mild and the tenn
perature so even In the stock-growing
section of Magellan that the herds
can remain day and night in the pas
ture the year round without suffering
injury. In the sheep industry no
country yields such large proportion
Of lambs-115 to 120 for each 100
ewes-as does Chile. while at the
same time the wool produced is fine
and of a strong fiber. At the present
time many Of the flocks belong to sub
jects Of Great Britain, who we're pho
neers in the stock-raislng industry In
the territory Of Magellan. Some idea
may be had of the fortunes arising out
Of sheep breeding in southern Chile
when 1t Is remembered that persons
engaging in this occupation with a
capital Of $4,000 to $4,000 ten or AZ
teen years ago are now the owners Of
! fiocks of from $4,000 to 10000 sheep.
The raising of horses is a profitable
Industry in the Territory Of Magellan.
The Chilean horse is a descendant Of
the Andalusian breed, is hardy, docile,
intelligent and vigorous. and, II is
said, is capable Of doing more work
on less food and with less care than
the European or American horse.
Chilean cavalry horses are taught to
lie down at the word Of command, the
cavalrymen using them as rests for
their rifles, the animals remaining mo-
tionless until after the firing is over
and rising again to their feet at the
word Of command. Because Of these
Qualities Chilean horses are highly es-
teemed for the light cavalry service Of
the armies Of modern times. In Chile
a young horse Of from two to four
years old,of average quality. is worth
from $40 to $50, and q horse Of the
best class and Of the same age from
$50 to $40. During the last 20 years
the ednine race In Chile has been i'm
proved by the introduction Of stations
from England, Germany and France.
