to be one OF the few good authorities on olive

to cost of clearing, he said it was worth
S25 per acre to prepare land for cultiva-
tion and irrigation. We have plenty of
water, and there is no section in the world
that can beat us for fruit"
NJ. p. BufiiIm came from Yolo county
and has bought land throughout Happy
valley to the extent of $3.50 acres. On
his home place he has fifty acres cleared

Everything planted is doing finely.
S. t. ALEXANDER,
Six miles from town, has what is destined
to be one of the finest, if not the finest,
fruit farms in the valley. There are now
planted to trees and vines 100 acres, 100
of which were set out this year. All told
there were planted $500 trees divided as
follows: Thirty-fve acres to prunes most
ly French, sixteen acres to almonds, six
acres to olives, twenty acres to peaches,
five acres to oranges and one acre to Sicily
lemons. There are about thirty acres of
Muscat grapes and ten or twelve acres of
old orchard. Fifty acres more were cleared
this summer, which viii be planted during
the season to olives and prunes. A crop of
blackberries yielded over 5000 per acre.
Only 4 few of the many engaged in this
new industry have been mentioned, but
enough TO show the general plan on which

AN AVENUE ASKED FOR.
1t is in contemplation to construct an
avenue seventy feet wide, for distance of
five miles, through the center of Happy
Valley, and a petition to that end, numer-
ously signed, is now awaiting the action of
the Board of Supervisors. Should the
prayer be granted, the avenue will soon be
improved and lined on either side by shade
trees. donated by Mr.. Alexander. This
avenue, when completed, will form one of
the prettiest driveways in upper Califor-
MA.
PRICES OF LANDS.
The alluvial lands along the river range
in price from S75 to $3.50 per acre, while
the lands in Happy Valley bring from $l5
to $50, the general average price being
about S25 per acre. Nearly all the lands
of the vicinity are in the hands of resident
owners, and yet there are in the aggregate
thousands of acres for sale Men owning
from so acres up, are willing to sell all but
say 10 acres, believing that to be more
than sufficient to maintain themselves in
luxury when titled with intelligence.
There is a general desire for additional
settlers, and a cordial invitation is ex-
tended to those with ability to assist in
the further general development Of the
section, and willingness to aid in main
