ing this vast amount OF money at home.
In order to help furnish sufficient breed
ing stock on this farm we are offering TO
sell portion OF the companys shares on
terms that will allow anyone who desires
to become interested with us
Remember, in investing with this COM
pany you are not putting your money in
stump land that will take a vast amount
OF money and time before il will produce
you anything, nor in desert land where
there are no improvements but you are
becoming interested in an established live
stock and dairy business.
As previously stated, there are 40 acres
OF this land in four-year-old winter apple
trees that will shortly be bearing. a large
portion OF the balance OF the land is under
cultivation. and with the present number
OF cows we should be able to raise at least
1000 hogs year and we now have a milk
check coming in every month When we
increase our present dairy herd 10 800 cows
this milk check should amount TO at least
5000 a month during ten months OF the
year. and the increase from 500 beef cows
should at the least calculation be S35 600
per year IL sold at fifteen months old for
baby beef. but. as large per cent OF this
increase will probably be sold for breeding
purposes the returns undoubtedly will be
considerably more.
In addition TO this we should sell from
$4,000 to $4,000 worth OF hogs. to say
nothing OF the young horses that could be
sold each year
Practically all OF the hay and grain re-
quired for the above amount OF stock can
be raised on the land
The land referred to is close TO Ellens-
burg. large amount OF il within one and
onc-half miles OF the city limits and the
State Normal College. The farthcst OF it
is about seven miles from town but within
three miles OF railroad station. AS both
the Northern Pacific and Milwaukee pass
through Ellensburg our shipping facilities
are the best. and freight rates the lowest
OF any irrigated valley in the state. In
addition TO these railroad facilities there
will be a good automobile and wagon road
completed between Seattle and Ellensburg
within the next year.
Cream meets with ready sale at any
one of the various creamerics in Ellensburg
or there is big demand for il for ship
ment to Seattle. but the company would
probably establish their own creamery or
a milk condenser Beef cattle and hogs
command ready sale either for shipment
