Advertised as well are the ample amenities of the town, its prospects for growth, the surrounding natural resources, and easy availability of land. With numerous reproductions of photographs, depicting fruit farms, prize-winning farm animals, logging mills, town buildings, and local scenes. OCLC locates only copy, at Yale.
