at tho National corn exposition James
J. Hill omphaslzed tho necessity of
Increasing tho productivity of tho
farms of this country. Ho said in
part;
"Tho true statement of tho broad
general fact which It ia most deslr

stand Is this: That this country can
not feed tho population which It must
necessarily ha'o within comparative

"Wo canuot support our coming
population upon tho crop yield per
acre that now satisfies us. What has
to bo considered, th0 keynote of nil
presont discussion, is not the diffi
culty but tho urgency of tho task. I
"Area is Inelastic. Our public lands
are nearly exhausted. A few moro

Offers an especially good foothill orchard for a low
price and on good terms. 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.
