This section combines the soil and climate of the most favored fruit growing districts of the state, with unusual opportunities for dairying and stock growing. A farm unit of 40 acres has been estab- lished and a price fixed on the excess acreage of land by the Board of Direc- tors, which enables the homeseeker to purchase high class irrigated land at prices lower than prevailed twelve years ago in irrigated sections of Washington.
