e. CENTRIC LAND & BROKERAGE
COMPANY
Real Estate Operators


Real estate everywhere is sought
after by the home seeker and the
capitalist alike, because il not only
affords the greatest security to the
investor, but if judiciously and we'll
selected invariably pays larger returns
than anything else in which a man can
put his money. Owing to the rapid
increase Of population of the United
States and the great profits realized
from intelligent farming, lands for this
purpose are no longer to be acquired
in the older states except at prices
that place them we'll beyond the reach
of the man of moderate means, and
for the same reason, they no longer
afford attractive opportunities to the
capitalist for speculation. Both home
seeker and capitalist have been forced
to turn to the Southwest, especially
to this section in which no part is
more inviting. And in no part of
this favored region are finer lands
with all the essential conditions foi
successful farming as well as such
wealth producing resources.
The FL Centro Land and Brokerage
Co has much valuable property on
their lists for sale, including city and
country property, both improved and
unimproved, and you will not make a
mistake if you Wiz write or call on
them with reference to AN investment.
The FL Centro Land and Brokerage
Co. is composed of w. c. Whitescar'
yer and G.. l.. Hall, each of whom has
thorough knowledge of the lands in

throughout the valley as progressive

is prepared to handle contracts of
practically any size in the most eXpe-

is indeed fortunate in possessing such
capable and practical men, and these
gentlemen are to be congratulated UP
on the splendid record they have made

Cement Posts
Many Imperial valley ranches are
being fenced with cement posts, the
ranchers believing that wood posts
are too high at any price, because
their price is reckoned i'll lost staples,
