 PLANTATIONS 



IN THE 



Land of Manatee 



will prove the greatest dividend earners of the century. The 

 Seaboard discovered this fact and the Land of Manatee simul- 

 taneously in 1902. 



The Manatee is below the frost line and there are numer- 

 ous rubber trees now there known to be forty years of age. 

 They grow luxuriantly, of great size in both a wild and culti- 

 vated state. If you are looking for a profitable investment 

 and can command capital, write for additional information re- 

 ding rubber growing in the Land of Manatee.
