Box S08 ALTOS CALIFORNIA A NEW¸¸ IDEA IN Growing Turkeys for Profit Sunfuir Turkey Bunches LOCATIOIh Sunfair Ranches are located in The Greatest ULTRA VIOLET RAY Spot on the North Amer- ican Continent, in the great Morongo Basin, in San Bernardino County just 135 miles East of the City of Los Angeles, the second largest tur- key market in the world. At the Gate Way of JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL MONUMENT, the 1 a n d of a THOUSAND • WONDERS. CLIMATE: SUNFAIR is situated at an elevation of 2650 feet above sea level. The air is dry, the average yearly rainfall is from two to four inches, IDEAL FOR TURKEY PRODUCTION. Winters are cool but comfortable with breezes from the west moderat- ing even the warmest days. At night most people find it necessary to use one or more blankets. This area is acknowledged by medical authorities to be one of the most beneficial spots for persons afflicted with Arthritis, Sinus and all Bronchial disorders, as this is The Greatest ULTRA VIOLET RAY spot on the North American Continent. Circular 110 of the College of Agriculture, Uni- versity of California states in ¢)art. "Turkeys gto better in a dry climate and ordinarily should not be raised in low damp areas.": WATER SUPPLY: SUNFAIR water is supplied to each ranch by a Public Utility Water Company which operates under the jurisdiction of the State of California Public Utilitie Commission. A one ipch take-off with meter is installed from he water main to each ranch at no cost to the land owner. This installation is made at request of the grower. IMPROVEMENTS: "Paved streets and electricity to all property. THE PROPERTY: SUNFA/R Ranches have been subdivided in ac- cordance to the regulations of the San Bernar- dino County Planning Commission and the Call. fornia Real Estate Law. There are available 3-6-10 and 20 acre parcels of land. Ranches can be bought with a discount for cash or on reason- able terms with a down payment of 1/3 of lhe purchase price. SUBDIVIDERS AND AA;ENTS: Chester R.. Bunker. President of the Bunker Land Company, and Lester V. Peterman. Attor- ney of Pasadena, are the subdividers. Mr. Bunker has been closely associated with the development of this desert region since 1934. He has success- fully subdivided many properties in the 29 Palms area and completely built the town of Joshua Tree from almost nothing to its present fine community standing. SUNFAIR COMMUNITY: Five years ago Bob Kroes purchased a small ranch at SUNFAIR and started a flock of 70 Tur- keys. From that small beginrdng SUNFAIR ha grown to a community of 29 growers and more than 70,000 birds in 1951. The residents are active and happy and welcome visitors. They are building future large incomes of their own from small investments. Not one of the present growers has ever had any previou Turkey growing experience. SUNFAIR is a closely knit community where every one is on an equal level as a Turkey grower. They help each other because the growers know that to build a successful community all must cooperate and each small investment becomes larger with each succeeding year and that profils are growing with those investments. In the growing season we will show you flocks containing from 2000 to 8000 birds. The growers can tell you how they started small and are now expanding their operations. This is a wonderful way to live. Good incomes, pleasant surround- ings, fine climate and a SUNFAIR Turkey grower is always his own boss. • JOIN THE SUNFAIR COMMUNITY: If you do not have available sufficient cash money to begin your Turkeys this year, $700.00 clown will start you on your way toward ultimate ownership of a Turkey ranch. As funds become available you can build your brooder house, liv- ing quarters, range pens, and other necessary equipment. If you wish to start growing Turkeys this year you should have from four to six thousand dol- lars in cash available. This amount of money will make a down payment on the land, build a brooder house and comfortable living quarters, erect fences and shade, buy 2000 poults and have sufficient funds available for a year's living. Through proper credit arrangements Turkey feed and land payments can be made after the crop is marketed. I1 is possible to finance the complete feed supply for a year through a nationally known feed com- pany, who also advises you as to the Turkey's care. One feed supplier alone, has already nearly a quarter of a million dollars in feed invested in SUNFAIR Turkeys this year. CONCLUDING THE SUNFAIR STORY: If you want a business of your own in a grow- ing torero,unity where it is possible to make a big interest return out of a small investment, investi- gate SUNFAIR Ranches. Our representatives with all of the facts and I]gures will be glad to assist you and explain any questions you may have. We are proud of SUNFAIR. We want you to see it.
