ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from SO to $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 12o, 16o and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the,purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual tnstallments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years. and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate Off per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
sDond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made thet good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 ON acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement win prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre. on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result easy Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of Land was the breaking up of large
Iolding fo- the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
~ diligent husbandry.

Drilling an Oil Well.

Its not such an expensive matter
to drill an oil well as you might imag-
inc" said Mr. Henry Brady, an expert
driller from Braddock, Penn, who was
found in Seattle the other morning
by Press-7imes reporter, and who has
been engaged to superintend the sink
ing OF an oil well at Port Gardner.
After your machinery is all on the
ground it costs an average OF 81 foot
until the depth of | 800 feet is reached;
then 1t costs an average OF 81 so
foot for every foot up to 5000 feet.
The deepest well ever saw was $500
feet. After you get half mile down
into the ground it is very tedious
work. Frequently the drill breaks and
you have to fish for it. Sometimes it
will take three or four days to get it
out. 1t is done in the same manner
in which corkscrew is taken out of a
bottle. When we get this well down
l 800 feet, if We do not strike oil or gas.
we will shoot the well. What | mean
by this, is that we will lower lot of
dynamite or nitro-glycerine cartridges
into the well and touch them by
electricity. By that means any
streams of oil or pockets OF gas in that
vicinity will be ruptured and escape
through the crevices to the we'll. /
have seen the oil shoot up 100 feet in
the air after a well was thus shot.
Yes, have no doubt whatever that
there is plenty of oil and gas in the
State of Washington, as the formation
OF coalbeds are similar to those under
which gas was found in West Virginia,
Pennsylvania and Ohio. / am eager
so get to work, for in rich mineral
country like this there's no telling
what you may strike"
