Here’s Your Golden Opportunity to
Buy A Home
In Sunny California
A 10-ACRE ORCHARD IN RAMONA ACRES
(planted to almonds, vines or used for raising chickens or turkeys)
Will insure independence for you and your family
When two so widely different men as Ignace Jan Panderewski, world
famed pianist and Polish patriot, and William Randolph Hearst, the
publisher, with the world to pick from.both select the Paso Robles
district as the site for their homes and “randhos”.that is proof that
nowhere is living more attractive and pleasant than on the coast of
California.
RAMONA ACRES is located near Paso Robles, in the heart of the pros
perous Almond and Grape district, midway between San Francisco and
Los Angeles. Both cities are easily accessible by fine concrete high
ways or Southern Pacific Trains.
GOOD INCOME FROM ALMONDS
In tbe Paso Robles vicinity ar
thousands of acres planted in al
monds of the finest variety. Th
soil is perfect. When in full bear*
ingf almond trees will return an
approximate crop of 30 pounds
per tree and around $250 per acre
per year. Other crops according
ly. The industry is growing; it is
highly organized with strong sell
ing connections. Almonds are easy
to handle, the crop is non-perish
able and offers a steady income.
Another fine-paying crop ite wine
grapes which have in the last sev
eral years sold for record prices,
from $80 to $100 per ton. Still
another profitable activity is the
raising of poultry. Those interest
ed in this industry claim that 1,000

year. Turkeys will return even lar
ger incomes. Feed is cheap and
easy to raise, climate mild an
markets readily accessible.
