per cent of the entire home consumption.

In no region OF the state can early veg
eta lGs be grown with greater success
than upon the Chino ranch. Fhe soil is
of surprising richness, moisture sufficien t
and syerv requirement fully met. Tnous-
ands of carloads of oabbages, cauliflowar

Chino ranch.
THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.
But the most attractive farming propo-
sition IN Southern California is the cul:i-
walton of the sugar beet. 1ndeei it may
truthiully be said that sugar boot culture
in this state mas awakened deepsr inter-
est throughout the entire country than
any other great enterprise which has been
brought into being during the century.
Its interests have become the subject of
legislative consideration and Its growth
and developn ent has given to America
one of it's most NEEDED. most profitable
and most wonderful activities. The fact
that America produces less than 10 per
cent OF the sugar required for home con-
sumption, ana that the enormous deficit
is supplied py foreign industry, coupled
with the significant revelation that
sugar can be made at home anu of quail
ity fully the equal OF the foreign pfonuct,
if not, indeed, superior thereto, amounts
to discovery which promises to this
country employment for thousands upon
thousands of successful farmers. this cul-
tivation of thousands Of acres of now idle
or protitless lands and the occupation OF
millions of otherwise unemp loyed CAPT
tai. The value of the discovery to the
industry from purely national stand
point amounts to national blessing.
The Chino Valley Beet Sugar company
has demonstrated to the world the pos
sibilities of bset farming In California.
1t has piished this great work by an
outlay of millions OF dollars by the APP
plcation of ti,eless energy and the use of
keen intellectual perception. 1t is an or
ganiLation which stops at no expenditure
which offers a possible improvement OF
method or which promises increas ed ease
or safety to its men 1t has not only es-
tn blished a great national industry, but
it is still experimenting in its enormous
factory, the largest in the world, Tor the
sugar, as we'll as the best sugar, that the
world has ever known. Its treatment of
farmers who come to it for the purpose
of engaging in the enterprise of beet
Culture is always just and in many cases.
generous beyond the treatment accorded
by any other large proprietor in any line.
The Chino r inch company has lands
to sail and to this end is willing to demon
strate to the prospective purchaser the
profit of beet raising, and to do it in
such way that the farmer can begin
with nothing, support him self and
family while doing so, and pay for his
land by the time he has completed his
education. OF course this company does
not undertake to furnish brains to the
empty head nor prosperity to the drone,
but to the man of determination and
frugality 1t offers home and profitable
industry for all time to come. Any man
of good moral character, without debt,
who may possess not more than pair OF
horses and the necessary Implements for
the cultivation of land, may go upon these
lands at "a nominal rental and, in five
yesrs, become landed proprietor.
The nom inal terms of purchase OF these
lands are one-third down and the balance
in equal annual payments within three
years. These terms are, however, sub
ject to modification to suit the conditions
OF prospective purchasers. The policy OF
the com pany is to treat its tenants and
purchasers with the utmost fairness and
generosity, to the end that they may be
content and remain permanent, make
money and buy the land upon which
they have settled, and exert a wholesome
influence in inducing other men to come
in and share their good fortune. The
com any depends upon the good will and
support of the farmers for its continued
pros perity. and to this end is willing to
IN eet all conditions with spirit OF gen.
erosity. When adversely comes upon the
purchasers, by reason of sickness, death,
m ishap, the company has abstained in
every case from rigorous treatment. and
has allowed payment due to go over for
q season. The ruling policy is TO nay
particular attention to the character of &C.
cupants of its premises and to encourage
and assist deserving tanners under all
circumstances. This POLICY 1nsures a
good class of settlers, a profit Akins
community and the ut post returns to all
concerned. It insures a peaceable and
thrifty community and a CONTINUITY OF
its profitable enterprises.
OF the 41,000 acres OF Chino ranch
about 20, 600 are available for beet ra sing.
Of this amount about 5000 acres are now
under cultivation and the acreage for
1896 will reach TO- 0J acres. Five years
ago this entire area was employed only as
pasture land. Today it is the home of
$50 happy, prosperous farmers, most of
whom are doing better than they ave
ever done before. They represent nearly
all states OF the union and ell classes of
financial conditions. Their interests are
identical and they represent, in an ideal
way, community living. BY them are
now owned, in severalty, about 1000
acres of the ranch. Lands are now SELL
