improved land In Vaca Valley has recently been sold al
$500 and $500 per acre.
These Capay Valley lands are under the most favor
able climatic conditions for the prosecution of profitable
ult growing, and the locality has proved itself to be
one OF the earliest IN the State The crop of 1896
from the companys vineyard at Cashmere was picked
dried and shipped to Chicago and Philadelphia before
the Fresno County grapes we're ripe.
The railroad passes through all of the tracts owned by
the Capay Valley Land Company thus insurlo excel

in the immediate proximity of either of the following
stations: Capay Cadenasso, Surrey, Guinda Sauterne
Cashmere or Rumsey

Tract, containing 600 acres to colony association
This tract has been subdivided into forty holdings all OF
which will be planted to fruit trees this season.
The fine orchards on the Guinda Tract where 400

and significant fact that several of the blocks are
owned by successful Vaca Valley frut-growers who ex-
pect ID make their earliest shipments from here.

Too much stress cannot &c laid upon the great ad-
vantage to the fruit grower of being in early locality
In cases it makes the difference between success
and failure The industrious orchardist of Capay Valley
may rest assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season. and that
acres of this rich land when the 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 townsites have been laid out in different points
in the valley, viz: Esparto Cadenasso, Gunda and
k>umsey Town lots may now be purchased at reason
able prices and on easy terms
The enterprising and hourishng town of Esparto is
situated at the lower end of the valley and SIPS 900
worth OF substantial buildings have already been erected
including fine four-story brick hotel two large brick
blocks and waterwors with pipes laid in the Streets
besides extensive warehouses and numerous residences
The town has postoffce school-house and weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express Offices
Postoffces have also been established at Gunda 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 as well as landseekers.
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay Val
ley may be thus concsely summed up:
soil of great fertility yielding bountiully of every
crop.
soil and climate which will ripen all kinds of fruit
vegetables earlier than anywhere else in the State
ana climate perfectly adapted to the curing OF rasns and
drying of fruit without the aid of artificial evaporatos
location that central and close markets Railroad
communication which enables shipments to be made
quickly and cheaply Lands which are sold cheaper

Whatever sort your dealer

How, do you think, he

He buys those that cost him
least; he can get the regular

they break the more he sells.
That's how he reasons.
Tell him you want Mac

him you'll pay him a nickel

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


The Pacific Improvement Company has REL
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 $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 12o, 16o and 500 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 tine prin-
clpal 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 2 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
500 an acre. An examination of the land
suu9ecG OF thls 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 laad at SO 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 fo- the purpose of promoting its set
Element in smaller quantities and its devotion
10 diligent husbandry.

what the board breaches. An assist
ant is needed to take care of the coal
and to do other work that has been left
undone. And | will say now that while

Mr.. Pratt has said, and say that l was

made these charges, as | considered it
then case of man living III glass

That ended the squabble. and the res
Olutions introduced by Gjertsen were

senting voice.
The board ordered night schools in the
following buildings: Franklin, Jeffer-

The board laughed at the story in one

of health has found that, barring little
defective ventilation in one or two
buildings, the schools are all right on

HE SAT ON THE BRIDGE,
And the Vigilant Copper Made
Him Move On.

Charles Williams was arrested yes
terday by Officer Gonyea for disorderly
conduct, and when arraigned in the po-
lice court yesterday he afforded consid-
cradle entertainment for the crowd
which regularly attend that place of
amusement. When asked where he
lived he replied:
''ln Ireland, your honor, and / am a
long way from home this morning."
LII answer to inquiries as to his occu-
patton he stated that he was chronic
tramp, and had never done lick of
work in his life. This brought dis
couraging scowl to the face of the court,
so he proceeded to square himself with
the following recital of the circum-
stances leading to his arrest:
You see was just sitting on the
bridge with my feet up when the officer
came along. Now that officer is very
soon. He was two minutes to soon for
me yesterday for | was just thinking Of
moving when he came along and in a
little over a minute would have been
gone, but instead of that he happened
along and here | am. When he told me
must go, tried to argue the point
with him. l thodght had a right to
sit there as long as l wanted to and that
he had no right to appoint himself my
timekeeper, but he would not accept
my views, and when | insisted upon
my rights he locked me up" Williams
was given a ten-day sentence which
was suspended.

AN ANNUITY CASE.
w. j. Lewis Wants What Is
Nominated in the BonG.''

Mary q. Fockens, formerly Mary H..
Lewis, and Romano Shine are made
defendants in case begun yesterday by
Wade j. Lewis, who seeks to recover
$945.32 on a bond. 1t seems that on
July 16, 1889. w. j. Lewis and his
mother, Mrs. G. p. Lewis, who was get
ting we'll along in years. turned over all
their property, valued at about $4,000,
to the defendants, who agreed to care
for them the remainder of their days,
educate Mr.. Lewis minor children, care
for the property and paw to Mr.. Lewis
$1,000 per year and TO Mrs. Lewis $500
per year, during their lifetime. In case
they did this and lived up to their bond
the defendants were TO have the prop
erty. But, according to the complaint,
they have failed to pay the money due
Mr.. Lewis, although they have the
property, and the suit is brought to
compel them to carry out the conditions
of the bond. Mrs. Fockens secured a
divorce from Mr.. Lewis in 1889 on the
ground of adultery, and a short time
afterward married Mr.. Fockens, whose
name had been mentioned more or less
prominently in connection with the
troubles Of the couple.
