POLK'S FLORIDA STATE GAZETTEER
CHOICE LOCATIONS IN FLORIDA
Polk, Lake, Pasco, Hillsborough and Manatee Counties
Of the states comprising the great Southeastern region of this country, Florida is conceded to lead in percentage of increase in population and in modern agricultural advancement.
Of the fifty-two counties in Florida, POLK, LAKE, PASCO, HILLSBOROUGH and MANATEE in the southern-central portion of the state stand out conspicuously as leaders in fruit growing and general farm development.
Central Lake Region of Florida
POLK, LAKE and PASCO COUNTIES-the highland and lake region of Florida, are dotted with rapidly growing cities, towns and villages, served by railroads and improved highways.
These three favored counties lead in the production of oranges and grapefruit, live- stock of the better breeds and in general farm crops. Thousands of virgin acres are being added to the area under cultivation.
HILLSBOROUGH AND MANATEE COUNTIES are leaders in early vegetables, trucking and diversified farming. The flowing well section of these two counties is considered the choicest location in this country for small farms.
For immediate development or for permanent investment the present prices of desir- able tracts of fertile land in any of these counties offer splendid opportunities for profit. I am offering in the counties above mentioned personally selected tracts of ten acres and upward at reasonable prices and easy terms.
