Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great ad-
vantage to the trlIltgrower OF being in early locality
In most cases it makes the difference between success
and failure The industrious orchardst of Capav Valley
may rest 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 are in bearing
will yield handsome and assured income.
The Capay Valley Land Company has an agent re-
siding in the valley, whose duty show the various
tracts to land seekers.
-Four ownsites have been laid out in different points
in the valley, viz Esparto Cadenasso Gunda and
Rum5ey Town lots may now be purchased at reason
able prices and on easy terms.
The enterprisng and fourishing town of Esparto is
situated the lower end of the valley and SI25 900
worth of substantial buildings have already been erected
including fine four-story brick hotel two large brick
blocks and waerworks with pipes laid in the streets,
besides extensive warehouses and numerous residences
The town has postoFICe, school-house and weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express offices.
Postofices have ase been established at Gunda and
Rumsey This latter place, situated at the head Of the
valley, is the present terminus of the railroad. The
comfortable little hotel makes excellent quarters for
hunters as we'll as andseeSers.
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay Val
ley may be thus concsely summed up
soil of great fertility, yielding bountuly of every
crop.

and vegetables earlier than anywhere else In the State

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 SIC 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 instaliments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is 10 have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate OF z 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 $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
S1OO an acre. An examination OF the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seelzers 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 at SO an acre, ou terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers a 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
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry
