Society, and has been recommended and endorsed
by eminent experts in Life Insurance, and by lead

The Directors of the Equitable Life Assurance
Society represent exclusively the interests of the
Policy holders, and in presenting the Society to no.

Centinela Colony.

The Centinela Rancho, situated on the coast,
in westerly direction from Los Angeles and
about three miles distant from the limits of
that beautiful city, contains $4,000 acres of
good, arabic valley land, large portion of
which is choice bottom and well adapted to
the cultivation of semi-tropical fruits. Near
the highest elevation is a cluster of large
springs, from which flows stream of crystal
water several feet wide and six or eight inches
deep, which may be conducted to almost any
portion of the rancho. On the adjoining
ranches are strong flowing wells, and it is the
opinion of Governor Downey, Mr.. Carey and
others, that artesian water can be readily Sc
cured on large portion of the land purchased.
The surveyor is laying out town in central
position and about three miles from a well
sheltered bay. The Los Angeles and Pacific
Railroad Company has been Incorporated to
build railroad from the landing, where
wharf will be built, running through Cent?
nela to Los Angeles.
There are orange, lemon and lime trees now
loaded with fruit, 5000 orange trees growing
in the orchard, 1000 three year-old orange
trees growing in the nursery, 800 Languedoc
almond trees just commencing to bear, sew
eral hundred other fruit trees, and $4,000
worth of sheep and other personal property
convenient, market good, and the land dog
cheap. Centinela will sell well under the ham,
mcr Here is chance for those who are look
ing for homes. Over two hundred shares have
already been subscribed for, and presume all
| the stock will soon be taken. Persons anxious
to join the colony should lose no time in max
ing personal examination Of this property
! These lands will be disposed of by the auc-
tioneer, as at Lompoc, to the highest bidder
whether member of the Association or not.
The purchaser Of homesteads will pay ten per
cent. of the purchase money on the day of
sale, and ten per cent. semi-annually thereaf.
ter with interest at ton per cent. per annum
until the whole purchase price has been paid,
Persons desiring homes on this beautiful
rancho should secure stock equal to the value
of the land desired, SO that If high prices are
obtained, as ut Lompoc, the dividends on their
stock can be applied to their final payments
on their homesteads, and reduce the cost to or
below the original purchase price by the com,

Marcus G. Hawley & Co.

In noticing Editorially, this firm, which for
long time has been so fully identified with
the Agricultural Implements and Hardware
Trade of California there is little to be said Of
which the Agricultural community are not
already aware. As stated in late issue of the
California Farmer:
"MEssRs. NJ. G. HAwLEY & Co., in their pre-
paratory work for 1878 are now erecting
large and spacious Warehouse on Bluxome
Street, near the Railroad Depot, upon lands
purchased expressly for the purpose, together
with a large Mandatory for Implements.
The buildings cover a large tract; the Ware
/" house will be Of 6Ox120, 2 stories high; the
" Mandatory and Warehouse will be 300X120
=" The r. R. Cars will have a track through all
i" these buildings, so that Implements from the
East can be unloaded into their Warehouse,
and those they sell loaded out again, and
thus save cost of Drayage, etc, to themselves
and their customers. A Telegraph wire will
"pass from their Warehouse and Factory to
their Store on Front Street, so that orders
from the country can be sent by Telegraph
I" to them, and the Implements loaded upon
the cars and dispatched into the country in
/" few hours.
"MEssRs. NJ. C. II. & Co are preparing in
good season for the large increase of popula-
81 ton coming to our shores, and the conse-
"quent large trade that 1875 will open up to
them and to our whole State in the New Year
close at hand"
The improved "Gold Medal Separator, e"
which is mentioned in their pamphlet, took
the Premium at the Stockton Fair, in a Thresh-
ers Trial, and is acknowledged as the most
complete Thresher ever offered to California
Farmers.
In addition to the general stock kept by a
house extensively engaged in this business,
MARCUS c. HAwLEY & Co. are sole Agents for
many of the leading and most practical Agri-
cultural Implements adapted to California and
the Pacific Coast. Their address is still as
heretofore, Nos. 1OS and ITO Front Street, San
Francisco, while in Sacramento they have q
store situated at the corner of J and Second
Streets, where they deliver goods at San Fran
cisco prices Persons in want of goods in their
line will do well to send for one of their Cata-
logues for 1873
