Farmers: This class of toilers are be-
ginning to show the usual signs of life
after their winters rest. Flowing has
become general. Some have sown their
oats, and few have planted potatoes.
Those who have gardens have planted
peas and beets. The chilly dry winds
have kept back the grass and trees, so
that fruit trees are not injured on ac-
count of putting forth their buds too
soon.
The Pownal burglary explained. The
mystery solved: 1t has been discovered
that the breaking into Parker's store
was after all the fancy only of few ex-
cited individuals whose imagination
often leads them to mistake ants for
elephants and fire crackers for heavy
artillery. Three rats, not natives of the
place however, had by some means
found an entrance into the building and
what had sounded so much like the
grating of drills in iron, was caused by
these rodents, trying to gnaw through a
piece of stewards" skim cheese. When
the affray commenced these rats quietly
retreated across the bridge to their
homes in the Beehive" The excited
'posse" mistook their own shadows in
the silvery moonlight for the retreating
robbers, and so the store breaking was
not burglary after ALL

The various tracts owned by the
Capay Valley Land Company, have
been subdivlded into ten and TWEEN
ty acre lots, which are for sale at
prices varying from $50 to $50
per acre. Similar unimproved
land in Vaca Valley has re Gently
been sold at from $400 to $500
per acre.
The Capay valley lands are un-
der the most favorable climatic
conditions for the prosecution OF
profitable fruit growing; and the
locality has proved itself to be
one OF the earliest in tie State.
The railroad passes through all
the tracts owned by the Capay
Valley Land Company, thus insur-
ing excellent shipping facilities
and the land may now be pur-
chased in the immediate proximi-
ty of either the following stations:
Capay, Cadenaso, Surrey, Guinda,
Sautern, Cashmere or Rumaey.
At many Of these places fine or
chards of the choicest and earliest
varieties Of peaches and apricots
may already be seen; and during
the coming season considerable
additional acreage will be planted
out. Ono Of the recent sales made
by the company was that OF ian
cred Tract, containing 600 acres
to a colony association. This tract
has been subdivided into forty
holdings, all Of which will be plan
ted to fruit trees this season.
The fine orchards on the GUM
da Tract, where 800 acres have
been sold, are especially worthy of
mention; and it Is a significant
fact that already several of
the blocks are owned by success
full Vaca valley fruit-growers, who
expect to make their earliest ship
ments from here.
Too much stress cannot be laid

fruit grower of being in an early
locality. In most cases it makes
the difference between success and
failure. The Industrious orchar-
