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

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand acres 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 $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 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 installments. 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 of 7 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-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 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 $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land ut $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy oil
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
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry

Evidences of the value of ALLCocK's
Porous PLAsTERs comes in the following
letter from Charles Yeager Of Company
A, Eleventh L. S. Infantry, stationed at
Fort Sully, Dakota:
II have been using ALLCocK's Porous
PLAsTERs for the last ten years, and feel
quite lost if have not half dozen in my
possession. In this section of the country
we have at times very severe cold. When
the thermometer is below zero, I find
that an ALLCoCK's Porous PLASTER on
the pit of the stomach is invaluable.
They appear not only to warm the body.
but to invigorate the digestion. At times
have been greatly troubled with a lame
back. Two ALLCoCK's Porous PLASTERS
placed upon the spine invariably cure
me in two or three days. Sometimes
have had a severe cough and very
bad cold. An ALLCoCK'S Porous PLAs-
TER placed around the throat and on the
chest, and one between the shoulder
blades, have invariably afforded me inn
mediate relief and quick cure"
