Colorado Versus Coronado.

ALI could not go to Colorado's great carnival
at Pueblo. it took too much time and the cost
was too heavy. But all can do the next best
thing-join the coming excursion to the Hotel
del Coronado and enjoy a real homemade
Southern California carnival of pleasure
recreation and amusement" to say nothing of
increased vigor and improved health, short
visit to this matchless place always produces.
King Rex will mot be there" though King
Neptune, the "God of the Sea-" with his lovely
water sprites may grace the silvery waters of
the Coronado with their presence. But should
they unavoidably be absent, they will be
represented by most charming substitutes,
whose every day frolics in the foaming surf is
one of the many treats that greet the eye of all
guests gracing the halls of Coronados pride,
her pet hotel. For particulars, see announce
ment in another column.
Remember the philosophy of a good smoke
is based upon good stock. The Grand Republic
Cigarros and Bufos are built that way and
hence their success.

COLONY TRACTS.

This is the initial offering, and the COM
mencement of the subdivision of the large
possessions of Mr.. j. B. HAGGlN, in Kern
County. The property embraced in it includes
some of the finest lands in thecounty rs all well
informed residents of BAKERSFIELD will
testify. About 2500 acres of the land offered
is in alfalfa, and can be rented or otherwise
utilized to yield large income and high
percentage upon a valuation of from $50 to
5000 per acre Other portions Of the offering
are used for vegetable and garden purposes,
while the balance is composed of land rich and
fertile, awaiting only the industrious settler
to demonstrate its great adaptability to fruits
and the products of this wonderfully prolific
soil. A large portion of these lands lie along
and adjacent TO UNION AVENUE, which as
at present dedicated extends from Kern River
south through BAKERSFIELD, a distance of
10 miles, and which is 1lJ% feet in width.

Town Lois.

With the immense settlement that must in
the nature of things follow the subdivision
into small farms of such 4 large area of valu-
able and productive land around BAKERS
FIELD; with the steady stream of immigra-
tion that will pour into this section of the
country, Transforming the county into one
i,igantic colony, with its countless number of
orchards and vineyards, drawing to it men of
enterprise and capital, BAKERSFIELD, with
its Incompatible water power, and other
natural advantages; with its railroad facilities
at hand, and the almost positive certainty oil
being the terminal point of another line, will
grow to, and become, beyond doubt, a city of
great proportions, and town lots will become
very valuable. Within the last year extensive
improvements have been projected and COM
pleted at BAKERSFIELD. The SOUTHERN
HOTEL, large and handsome brick and iron
structure, costing 100000, will be opened TO
the public about the middle of March, ensur-
ing all who attend this sale comfortable accom-
modations. A street railway has been in sue
cessful operation for year, the town is well
supplied with water and a fine quality of
Illuminating gas is furnished from the works
just completed, at prices ruling in other inte-
Iior cities. Other important enterprises of a
private nature are contemplated and some well
under way The lots we offer are centrally
located and within few blocks of the new
