for Men Of small Means.

The HERALD has no hesitation in ring.
ing the changes upon the necessity OF the
addition of large working element to
the population Of Los Angeles county.
There has been great deal of twaddle
about the high price of land here, the
difficulty farmer experiences in getting
it, and SO on to the end OF the chapter.
There have never been better openings
for men who really mean to work than
exist in this section to-day. In order
that there may be no misapprehension
about the matter we will give facts. Mr..
f. ]. Baldwin possesses, in the Santa
Anita, Puente and San Francisquito
ranches, large bodies of the finest lands
in the State Of California, and on appli-
cation to his business representative, Mr.
Unruh, at Arcadia, thousands of acres of
these lands can be had on the shares, for
one-third Of the crop, the lessor furnish
ing the seed and fec d for the teams, the
latter to be deducted from the lessee's
two-thirds OF the crop. This property is
what is known as "moist" land, and
will produce heavy crops without
any irrigation. However, the facili-
ties ior irrigation are ample if its
use is thought expedient. The
Puente lands will readily yield eighty
bushels of corn to the acre without irri-
CATION. Mr., Baldwin's share Of the corn
grown on the San Francisquito ranch
last year was fifty bushels to the acre,
and, as he only exacts third of the crop,
here was the prodigious yield of one hun.
dred and fifty bushels to the acre. In
view of such facts We do not see any
excuse for sending to Kansas and Iowa
for potatoes, which flourish quite as well
as corn on both the Santa Anita, Puente
and San Francisquito ranehos. Five
thousand acres are out there awaiting
the industrious farmer; and if he is here
the sooner he turns to work the better
and if he is not here, the sooner We gel
him in Los Angeles the better. He will
receive excellent prices for his products
and the return on the seed sown is some.
thing phenomenal. Men who pretend
that they want work need not stand
around growing at the high price o1
land. On Mr.. Baldwin's proposition
they invest nothing but their labor and
the services of their teams, feed fer the
latter and the seed being furnished free,
or practically free, for it is to be returned
out of the crops. No better opening for
man ofsmall capital could be discovered,
for if he elbows himself industrious and
capable Mr.. Baldwin will hold on to him
with grip of steel, being specially de-
sirous Of seeing such men in his neigh
borhood to help him improve his large
possessions. Any one who desires to test
the truth of the HERALD's statements,
has only to buy ticket on the Rapid
Transit Road for Arcadia, and interview
Mr.. Unruh, Mr.. Baldwin's representa-
tive.

Is the Bible Inspired ofGod.

Do you suppose that If the Bible
had been written by some learned

some great religious society, W.

BILE, you would have had a bigogia-

A book which tells the faults of

you that "there is none righteous,

an official account mus limit him

to give some idea of the prodigous

preciate the colossal size OF the
Alaskan dominion of the United
States. Even prominent men are
apt to regard it as little fringe OF
frozen zone quite UNIV orthy OF their
attention. William S. Holman once
had this idea of Alaska. A couple
of years ago, when Gov. Swineford
was urging the house committee
on territories to report favorably on
a bill to give Alaska something
more than a semblance OF terrific
rial government, MIR. Holman said !:
swell, governor, my idea is that
Alaska ought to be made county
of " ashington territory. That
would be the simplest way to dis
puse of the troublesome Russian
purchase.

him again.
