Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-05-08


migrants who desire to come to the
State. We desire no particular class
OF immigrants, but will welcome all
moral, intelligent and industrious
men and women. Capital is desirable,
but not Indispensable; but industry is
a requirement looked for in every new
settler. With capital or industry a
man can make good living; with
both requisites, he is sure To attain al
independence at an early date. No
people in the world appreciate integ-
rity more highly than those of Califor-
mia. When they test the integrity of
u newcomer and see that he is active
and energetic withal, they at once
give him their confidence. They be-
lieve, with Burns, that
"The honest man, though e'er SO poor,
Is king Of men for all that"
We say this much for the encour-
agement of intending immigrants.
Loafers and drones we do not want,
but there is always room for honest
industry, with or without capital.
Having received number of letters
from other States, we will publish a
few assuring the writers of hospta-
BILE welcome, In case they come tt
California.
Mr.. Charles G. Kellogg, of Ottawa,

template goihg to your county, if We
can get the necessary information in
regard to the country.
In answer to inquiries propounded
we will say: l. Land can be bought
near Los Angeles from $40 per acre
upwards, on favorable terms. 2. There
is water accessible for irrigating near
ly all the land, but some of it does not
need irrigation. 3. A young man OF
industrious habits, with $500 to
$1,000 cash, would do welli in anything
for which he was adapted. 4. An or
ange orchard commences to bear in
eight years and the price of plants
varies with their age; but they are as
cheap as any fruit trees East. Apples
and peaches do we'll here. 5. AS we
have succession of crops, the immi-

Here the frost went down four feet
into the ground this past Winter, and
some hopes are entertained that if il
proves a favorably warm Summer it
will finally thaw out in time for the
frost to have clear chance to freeze
it over again without coming to any
of che frozen ground made this Win
