1000 acres of land about nine and half
miles east OF Pasadena and one and one
fourth miles south of Monrovia station, and
adjoining Lucky" Baldwin's ranch, and
orchards. About 400 acres of this is
barley; part is an old cornfeld; part is

the lovely city of Monrovia, sell Off the lots
at low acreage price, and make my money
out of the five and ten acre lois adjoining.
Many people consider town property en-
tirely too high, and hesitate to pay as much
for a lot as their house will cost. so | expect
this sale will result in the building OF a
lively center surrounded by lovely homes in
this loveliest part of the San Gabriel Valley.
The townsite is laid out on the decided por-
ton of the tract and is almost perfectly level
and nearly frnp from, StDnp SnlpnIit frnit

some day be confined. Some of the lots to

free from stone; the remainder, outside OF
the wash, are lighter soil, but smooth, some

than thousands of acres of $500 per-aCre
land in the same valley.
l do not guarantee that improvements
mentioned above will be made, but | am
willing to forfeit over one.half of the in
significant $2S per lot if they are not made,
besides makinga sad failure of my sale of
adjacent land.
Lots are numbered from north Invest
corner in routine, for purpose of receipting
only. Twenty-three lots are reserved for
school grounds, churches, free library, no.
tel and three business houses already agreed
upon. These lots are designated by letters.
When all other lots are sold meeting of
lot owners will be called, a map of tract

one hundred reserved wash lots and lettered
lots This will preclude the possibility of
any unfair TIE tment of purchasers, and
will be the quickest way of deciding the
matter. After the lots are thus properly
mum bered all owners are particularly re-
quested to at once plant trees in front of
their respective lots, which in short time
will make Chicago p ark a park indeed.
For one dollar per lot l will have three
trees planted in front of lots outside of
wash and taken care of for two years.
