These Capay Valley lands are under the most favor
able climatic conditions for the prosecution of profitable
fruit growing, and the locality has proved itself to be
one OF the earliest in the State The grape crop of 1890
from the companys vineyard at Cashmere was picked

The railroad passes through all of the tracts owned by
the Capay Valley Land Company, thus nsuring excel

The record-union., 1891-10-12

Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great ad
vantage to the frutgrower of being in early locality.
In most it makes the difference between success
and failure The industrious orchardst of Capay Valley
may assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season. and that 20
acres OF this rich land, when the trees bearing
will yield handsome and assured income

blocks and waterworks with pipes laid in the Streets
besides extensive warehouses and residences
The town has postofice, schoo-house and weekly
paper and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express Offices
Postofces have alse been established at Guinda and
Rumsey. This latter place. situated the head of the
valley, is the present terminus of the railroad The
comfortable little hotel makes excellent quarters for
hunters well as land-seekers.
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay Val

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company mas 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
DO, so, 120, 160 and $40 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 installments. Thus no part of the pTin-
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 of 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 SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming. and es-
peoially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will 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
holding for the purpose OF promoting its set
uement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

LIVESTOCK NOTES.

GROOMING is as healthful in the winter
as In summer.
WARM the bits before putting them
into the horses mouths.
HORSES should be turned out for exer-
else every pleasant day.
To GIT the best results handling and
training should begin when the colt is
very young.
oSE-THIRD each of corn, oats and bar
ley ground together makes a good
winter ration.
KEEPING the horses heels and legs
clean in the winter is the best proven
tive for scratches.
STANDING in wet manure tends to
make the feet Of the horse tender. Keep
the stable clean.
IT is generally best 20 keep one team
well shod during the winter to use on
the road when slippery.
COLTS viii make better growth and
development if they are given a light
feed of ground oats every day.
CHANGE the feed often enough to keep
all stock with good appetites. They
viii thrive better on less feed.
If you have the right kind of horses
the buyer will come after them; if the
wrong kind you will have to hunt a
buyer.
SOME people who give the cattle the
best Of care neglect the hogs. The hog
viii repay good care as wei as other
kinds of stock.
GUARD against constipation in swine
The fat forming foods tend to produce
costiveness. The opposite kinds of food
tend to prevent it. /.
BE careful Of the eyes of animals.
They are just as delicate as the eyes Of
human beings. People often work
around stock very carelessly with forks.
THE swine breeder who feeds oil meal
occasionally win not regret Il. 1t is a
tonic and regulator of the bowels
Care should be taken not TO feed too
much
GROOMING is a cheap way of improv-
ing the condition of the horse. 1t can
be done at the simple cost of curry
comb and brush and the expenditure of
a little elbow grease which viii never
be missed.
ALWAYS remember that hog is
hog and consequently, as the animal
has no Judgment about eating, you
must exercise judgment for it. Better
let the animal go little hungry than
to feed it beyond its capacity to utilize
the food.
THE manure Of the pig pen is very
valuable. One writer estimates the
value Of pigs manure at dollar and
forty-two cents for every one hundred
pounds FROM the time of birth to time of
Strengthening. There is no better man
ure for roots
