A. Productive Farm on the Eastern Shore of 
Maryland is the Ideal Home 
What is known as the “Eastern Shore” of Maryland is an old settled section; some of the richest 
plantations of all times since America was settled have been right here, and the lands granted to 
Lord Baltimore by the King of England are now, as they were 200 years ago, the “Cream of the 
Country.”. Here there is room for progressive farmers to make big successes. 
Berlin is the junction point of two railroad lines. Distance to Ocean City (on the Atlantic Coast, 
the summer resort of the Eastern Shore), 7 miles; to Baltimore, 124 miles; to Philadelphia, 143 miles. 
Summers are cool, winters are mild—zero weather is almost unknown. Growing season from 
March to November. Two crops ripen on the same land, bringing double profit. Fruit, grain, hay, 
vegetables, poultry or stock all yield high. The finest water, excellent schools and churches, and 
miles of macadam, concrete and other improved roads. Living conditions unexcelled. 
You can sell everything you grow right at your railroad station for highest market prices. If 
you want to ship, the country’s highest-priced markets are only a few hours away by rail.
