half the land, nine tenths of the
property and pay ninc.ten,hs OF

On September 80, 1898, the mum
Der was 53t, an INCREASE OF IMO
HUNDRED AND NINETEEN IN one
year. Our Vineiand sale records
are open ior inspection. DO you
know OF any equivalent record in
any rural community? Do you know
OF any place outside OF a boom
mining town which can show an
equal percentage of increase? Pop
ulatlon grows proportlonately. To-
day Vineland has more population
than Lewiston had when Nlneland
was begun IN the spring OF 1890.
THE CAUSES of this growth are
easy to read: Irrigation. rich soil,
easy terms OF purchase, pure water,
superior climate, nearly perfect wa
ter distribution system; subdivision
in small tracts, goot reads, good
schools, unSurI aSsed markets fol
