A RARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 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 SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, 12o, 160 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 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 aore,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre.
with other grades OF land at prices 10 corre-
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming and espe-
ciaily 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 20
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 ST. an acre, or terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers u result easy
of accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase OF This
body of land was the breaking up of a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tiement in smaller quantities and It's devotion
to dhigent husbandry

LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

The following figures are interesting as
a summary of the appropriation and tax
levy bills, showing the estimates of money
necessary for the expenses of the next
two fiscal years, the credits which may be
relied upon to apply on those expenses,
the actual amount to be raised by the tax
levy and the surplus remaining at a rate
OF fraction less than 4S cents on the 500.
1t should be said that the estimate of ex-
penses includes every appropriation that
has been passed, provided the Governor
should sign every such bill:

81 80 pr 100 pounds of milk, giving as
the cos of pound of butter from 10 6

per cow-sixteen being tested-is said
to be from 33lG pounds to 1862 pounds
per year. The butter produce from each
cows milk ranged from 1872 pounds to
