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

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land in the heart of Teha:na 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, so, 100, 16O and 32o 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 Tor 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 TINS 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 $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land 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 for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

TOULOUSE geese are the largest do
nestle water fowl, they mature very
rapidly and usually bring high prices
in the fall and winter.
THERE is only one way of keeping
Il large number OF fowls protitably,
and that is to separate into smaller
tocks and keep them so.
II usually does not cost much to
keep fowls on the farm, and no class
can raise fowls or secure eggs as
cheaply as the average farmer.
Ii there is any difference between
feeding young ducks and young chick
ems it is in the fact that young ducks
require more bulky food than chick,
ems.
WHILE ordinarily the keeping of
either ducks, geese or turkeys can be
made aore profitable than chickens,
only the better breeds should be
kept
THERE IS one economical result in
poultry keeping that is often lost

A Marine Ghost.

Two young Englishmen sailed to-
gether on board Cunard steamer from
Liverpool for New York short time
ago. They had never met before but
they happened to come together in the
first evening on board, and, finding that
they had great deal in common, soon
became something more than mere
acquaintances. 1t was rough passage,
and they were seldom able to get on
deck, so they spent most Of their time
playing ecarte. 1t was between the
deals Of one of their games, and the one
who was sitting on the bunk (whom we
will call Mr.. A. was shutting the cards,
when both became aware that third
person was standing at the cabin door
looking at them.
Good God, jack" exclaimed Mr. B.,
jumping up from the couch, chow on
earth did you get here?"
The figure at tho door said nothing,
but quietly turned around and walked
away again The boat was rolling
badly, and when Is. had done tumbling
over the portmauteau and had made
his way to the door some few seconds
had elapsed A. was naturally some

terruption and the way his friend had
treated it, so he threw tho cards on the
bed, and, hanging on to tho door.
scrambled out after him. When he got
into the passage he saw B. standing
some ten yards off looking up and down
in q bewildered kind of way, and no
body else III sight.
"Who was it ," asked A., rs the other
came slowly back to him after ques-
tioning the Steward Il have not seen
him on board before"
He was my brother, and he is not on
board" was the startling answer, L
left him in Liverpool. and l know he
can't have come away"
Nonsense, my dear fellow; it must
have been some one of the passengers
I certainly don't believe it was your
brother He was as utterly unlike you
as one man can be unlike another. He
was tall and YOU are short, he was fair
and you are dark, he was stout and you
are slim, and your faces are completely
different"
Yes, l know. L call him my
brother, but he is really my half
brother. His name is c., and we are
totally unlike each other. But that
man was my haIsbrother, Jack c., as
sure as l am standing here, or-his
ghost
Well, there was no more ecarte that
afternoon; none of the officers or pass
engers had seen anybody answering
to the description of the supposed c.,
and he never appeared again until they
reached New York.
When they landed, B. found cable
message telling him that his half
brother was dead.
