Island
of Opportunity
Cuban Fruit Lands the Best Investment on Earth
WE HAVE PURCHASED 5,000 ACRES OF THIS LAND, WITHOUT DOUBT THE RICHEST AND MOST NUTRITIVE
TRACT ON THE ISLAND. This tract is in one body known as the "EL PALENQUA" Plantation; located near Omaja, Oricntc Province
in Eastern Cuba, and on the main line of the Cuba Railroad company, almost due south from New York City.
General Leonard Wood, former governor-general of Cuba,
aid: "If I were to designate a place of the greatest opportunity
I 'would ad rlne the eastern end of Cuba for the culture of
orange, lemons and pineapples."
This Is the land that we have bought and are Improving to
el to you on the easy plan. A tract of ten acres will make any-
one independent In ten years you begin to make money on this
Cuba land right away and you keep It up no frost, good markets,
quick sales and big returns. The famous correspondent, Frank
Carpenter, writes: "You can put citrus fruit Into New York and
Chicago from Cuba quicker than from Florida or California.
REMEMBER! this entire tract of 5,000 acres Is all paid for;
TITLE PERFECT, clear of all encumbrance, and the company
without one dollar of Indebtedness. The fact that this land is
surveyed and deeded means much In Cuba. Without these es
sentials none of the valuable hardwood timber, abundant on this
tract of ours, could be sold or manufactured into lumber, as the
laws of Cuba prohibit the selling of timber from unsurveyed and
undeed lands.
v The company has already purchased and Installed a saw mill
on the plantation, a complete and up-to-date outfit, and Mr. C. R.
Glover, our general 'manager, who has been in Cuba for the last
f year and a half with his family, Is at present overseeing the clear
ing of our land for the planting of fruit trees.
READ OVER CAREFULLY the facts below, always to be
considered In an Investment of any size, and note our plan,
whereby you can become a share-holder in the enormous profits
to be made in CUBA.
INVESTMENTS A field for Investment where small
amounts will bring a sure and adequate Income Is hard to find.
Railroad stocks, Industrial stocks, and the development of oil and
mining properties by companies composed of small Investors have
been tried, but none of these plans have yei been so perfected
that the small stockholder can be protected from the possible ag
gression of the majority stockholders, Jhen, too, while very
often a shrewd guess can be made as to what wealth of oil, gold,
or copper is bidden in the earth beneath our feet, nevertheless,
the uncertainty of positive knowledge weakens the value of the
Investment. Yet small Investors must co-operate with one an
other, work together, and pool their capital In order to share in
the commercial prosperity made possible by the opportunities and
methods of the twentieth century. Alone, the man with a few
hundred dollars to invest is helpless; one thousand investors with
a common interest, a common plan, form a strong combination.
This applies in the development of a plantation in Cuba more
particularly than commercial enterprise in the United States.
OPPORTUNITY Such an opportunity is cfjered In a citrus
fruit grove, cultivated in tbe semi-tropical island of Cuba, where
the frost never reaches, where you do not have to irrigate, and
where such a thing as crop failure is unknown.
These splendid opportunities are open to all, for the reason
that THE GLOVER CUBAN LAND COMPANY, with the combined
capital of purchasers of Plantation Certificates, will develop one
of the finest tracts of land in Cuba, giving as large a return in
proportion to the amount invested to the man who Invests 100
as to the man who Invests $100,000.
TIffi COMPANY ITS PUBPOSE
Knowing all these Important facts, and realising that In
dividual efforts never equal Incorporated capital and manage
ment, THE GLOVER CUBAN LAND COMPANY was organUed
for the purpose of purchasing and developing, as a company, the
tract of land near Omaja, Cuba, knownis "El Palenqua," con
ceded to be the finest timber land and richest soil In Cuba. The
property Is FULLY PAID FOR. SURVEYED and an ABSOLUTE
LY CLEAR DEED in the hands of the secretary of the company.
KNOWING THE IMMENSE PROFITS OF A CITRUS FRUIT
GROVE IN CUBA, combined, with the lnsurpassable condition to
be found there, the" primary object of the company Is to success
fully grow and market oranges, lemons, grape-fruit, pineapples,
etc., to produce for commercial emolument that which already
grows in wild profusion on "El Palenqua."
The path to our chief endeavor, however, lies strewn with
profitable auxiliary enterprises, which will add greatly to the
proceeds and enhance the value of our Plantation Certificates.
EL PALENQUA IS THE FINEST TIMBERED TRACT IN"
CUBA. It holds a great wealth of hard cabinet woods of every
variety, besides rough timber, both hard and soft. Our proposi
tion is the only one In Cuba that promises investors dividends on
profits from sale of timber, lumber and side industries, while
the trees are being planted and cultivated to the fruit bearing
period. It is the only proposition In Cuba where Investors can
take their choice, to remain a participant in the Income dividends
and profits or take deed of land. Our proposition is fair to
Investor and fair to our company.
v , DIVIDENDS
Few, aside from those engaged in tbe raising of citrus fruits
reallr.e the enduring and enormous profit attainable by this in
dustry, when properly managed. Fortunes are being made an
nually in both Florida and California, where the growers must
spend hundreds of dollars a year for fertilization, and where the
must irrigate, and where their groves are In danger of frott.
What must be the profit In Cuba, where these expenses and the
danger are entirely eliminated? No irrigation or fertilizers needed
on "El Palenqua" plantation. v
It is nothing uncommon for an acre of citrus fruits in Florida
or California to produce from $500 to $1,900 net profit annually.
These groves find ready sale at from $1,500 to $2,500 per acre.
It has been demonstrated that in Cuba, with its rich, fertile soil,
abundant rainfall, and ideal climatic conditions, you can secure
even better returns from a citrus fruit grove than in the States.
YOU CAN SECURE A CLEAR DEED TO THE LAND YOUR
PLANTATION CERTIFICATE REPRESENTS.
OUE PROPOSITION IN A NUT SHELL
We have selected 1,000 acres of this plantation, in the
center of the tract, which bb fast as cleared of the timber, will
be planted to citrus fruit trees. Against this 1,000 acres, which
wa have designated as "Series No. 1," we are issuing. Plantation
Certificates of par value one hundred dollars ($100.00) each, en
titling the holder thereof to a pro-rata of the entire earnings of
every kind on- this 1,000 acres, in proportion to $600 per acre
There are many people who have money to invest In a propo
sition of this kind for the dividends and profits, but for those who
have the. time, knowledge and desire to grow an orange grove in
Cuba, we have formulated a proposition which permits tbe in
vestor who has purchased "El PalenquaTMantatlon Certificates"
to cancel his Investment in the 1,000 acres, Series No. 1, and
take warranty deed for an orange and grape fruit grove of one or
more 'acres at $500 per acre, or unimproved land at $50 per acre,
the grove or unimproved land to be selected from the adjoining
4,000 acres. Should the investor desire a residence lot in Palen
qua for a winter home on the plantation, or while giving personal
attention to their orange groves, they can select such lots as they
desire at $100 per lot and either apply his Plantation Certificate
or pay cash. '
And the certificate holder has the option of three years in
which to avail himself of this plan, whereby he can either retain
as an investment in the parent company;; or take deed of lands
of his own, free and clear of encumbrance.
OUR. PLAN
The Glover Cuban Land Company assumes the responsibil
ity of clearing the land, planting the trees, and giving same the
proper care and attention to the bearing Btage; on a basis of ten
per cent commission of the NET profits. And the fact that the
company proposes to remain in charge of the Plantation after
building same to a fruit bearing citrus orchard of one thousand
acres, one hundred thousand trees, on such a low percentage
basis, should convince the most skeptical that we have explicit
-faith in our proposition.
OUR PLAN OF SELLING
Advise us how many certificates you want; the price is $100
each, and tbe certificate will be issued and sent to your local
bank where you can read before paying for same. For those who
desire to buy oa the payment plan we can leave the certificate 'n
escrow with your local banker to whom you can make monthly or
quarterly "payments to be arranged with this office, the only dif
ference between cash and payment buyers being that the time
purchaser pays 6 interest on deferred payments.

ASK FOR FURTHER DATA IF YOU WANT IT. CALL
AND SEE US IF CONVENIENT.
THE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THIS COMPANY,
HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN BANKING AND
REALTY BUSINESS IN THIS SECTION FOR THE PAST TWENTY-FIVE
IfEARS, and those who know them no further recom
mendation Is needed that the interests of the Certificate holders
will be honestly and carefully looked after. To those not ac
quainted we- can furnish unlimited recommendations.
WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU INVESTIGATE THIS OFFER AT ONCE ITS A GOOD ONE.
