In these days of advancing prices, it will pay to look into this. It pays to deal with tho "Man Who Knows." When the Rogue River Land Company sold tho Tronson & Guthrie orchard at Eagle Point to the prize winning owners, four years ago, the salesman, W. M. Holmes, assured the purchasers those Spitzonborgtrees would produce the world's best apples, and subsequent events prove the soundness of his judgment. By tho way: Did it ever occur to you that most of the men who havo won out in the Rogue River Valley, bought thoir win ning orchards through the Rogue River Land Com pany? W. M. Holmes, Manager, is always at your service for a good buy.
