THE LOT FOR NOTHING
Even if Humble, There's No Place
Like Home
An Unparalleled Offer That VIII Inundate a
Great Newspaper With Business An
Unexampled Proposition

Who would not be property holder?
Who IS so oblivious to the sense OF the sat
isfactlon that comes from al ownership
in real estate that we would not accept a
good building lot if such were offered
him. 1t is not necessary to own hun
dreds or even tens of acres TO feel the ex-
alterations OF independence. Be 1T ever
SO humble, there's no place like home,
and this sentiment is recognized as uni
versaIly true. The home may not be
mansion or palace; it may not bs upon a
fashionable street, but the man, woman
or child that can look upon a 25x100 foot
lot, knowing that it is not mOrtgaged;
that no lien rests upon it; that it Is what
it purports to be upon the face Of the
deed-a spot of Gods green earth that is
entirely. wholly, absolutely yours-who
would not accept it and the comfort and
satisfaction that its ownership will bring?
And when that 25xl00 feet is level, in a
growing town. on through railroad and
III productive portion OF California, you
know and everyone knows thaG it is in
deed desirable, that it is to be coveted,
and that the opportunity to own such
piece of land for nothing-practicall
nothing-is to be EN- braced instantly upon
presentation.
So true is the foregoing that the Herald
thinks that people have only to become
acquainted with It's unparalleled offer for
1t to be inundated WITH business. Here
is the proposition: Every one subscriD
ing for Tile Herald, daily, for one year,
will pe given an order for deed for
lot 25x10O feet IN size, located In The
Herald addition to the town of Lancas-
ter. The holder OF the order for lot,
upon presentation with receipt for six
months in advance. $3.50, together with
~ for notary fees in making out deed.
will be presented with deed for the
ers now taking the Herald can taks ad-
vantage OF tots grand offer upon the
same terms with new subscribers.
This offer, The Herald is sure. is plain
enough. Now just few words regarding
the land: Lancaster is comparatively a
new town, located, in the center of An
telope VALLEY, a long the line of the South
Los Angeles, in Los Angeles county. 1t
is new for the reason That up until few
years ago water was supposed to exist
only in the mountains, and that it would
require large sums to bring water upon
the land for irrigation purposes. But
this theory has been exploded during the
past few months oy striking arlesain
water at a depth of only 1872 feet. These
wells are now to DE found everywhere,
pouring up the clearest or pure water
and vegetation of all descriptions /
springing into sight. Activity is appa-
rent IN all directions. New settlem ents
are being made throughout the valley,
and in a few years more the entire region
OF which Lancaster is the center, will be
the most populous and thriving part of
Los Angeles county. Where the town is
situated, and where The Herald lots are
laid out, tn. land is level as floor. The
town OF Lancaster is a thriving piece and
al: &c. 1rNtx ,Ia M
of much prominence. The surrounding
country is receiving an influx of settlers
who will open homes and improve the
land 10 the best possible manner. The
character OF the products grown in this
region indicates most cleasly that very
large population can and will be sustained
in Antelope valley with Lancaster as its
center.
If one paid $40, 900 for lot, the pur-
chaser doubtless would have to pay for
making out the deed and the notary fees.
You are expected to pay it in this case
the fees. and not the $40. 900. The Her
aid will give you the lot. Read the prop
osition over carefully, then act prom pity.
Do not put it off until tomorrow or the
next DAY; do it now. There Is no future,
there IS no past, but an eternal now doth
ever last. Write The Herald today Thi.
