This bond, he can sell if he desires or he can keep it to be used to help pay his share of the principal and interest of the bonded debt and at the same time he will receive his certificate of stock in the Mutual Company-one share of stock for each acre of land.

A new Mutual Water Company to be known as Imperial Water Com pany No. 8, has recently been incor- porated for the purpose of irrigating 10000 acres of land on the west side of New River, north of Imperial and just west of the new railroad town of Brawley.
 The Imperial Construction Com pany of Los Angeles have secured from the California Development Com pany the sale of all the stock of Imperial Water Company No. s, and have appointed Oakley-Paulin Co.,, 304 Douglas Building Los Angeles as their exclusive agents, the Company devoting their entire time to the building of the distributing system which will commence at point west of New River over which the water will be conducted through a large Hume.

This Album consists of fine collection of about sixty half tone engravinss from photographs recently taken of views in the Imperial Settlements showing the progress of development il this section of country during the past two years.
 These Albums are mailed you or application to the Imperial Land Company at PA Stowell Block Los Angeles. They are a fine accompani- ment to this holiday edition of the Imperial Press.

debtednesS against it other than the bonded debt and there will be no bonds issued except to the extent of $20 for each share of stock as same is sold and attached to land.
 Under this plan the settler can take 160 acres of land un- der the Desert Act by the payment of $40 to the government and the sum of $160 on stock purchase, for which he receives a bond for $160, which he can keep or sell as he may desire. Whatever other money he may have can be used in putting in crops and improving his land. The first settlers under this No s company will be able to secure lands near the railroad lands that are among the best in the valley
 The settler under this company will have very little to pay for five years and by that time the land will have a market value of from $50 to S100 an acre and the light payments will come along so easily that he will scarcely realize that he has paid for a ranch that will then be worth from $SO00 to $16000. If he takes a half section it will be worth from S16,0OO to S32. 900.
 Here is the chance of a lifetime, as this entire tract of 10000 acres will be taken up in very short time.

 A New Plan
 Has been adopted in plac- ing this stock on the market-a plan that is proving very popular and is attracting the attention of many who are seeking locations in these Settlements. This new plan places a ranch within the reach of men of linn ited means and also accommodates the man who desires to pay all cash
 Instead of each individual purchas- ing his water stock and either paying all cash for it or paying $2.50 per share in cash and giving his notes and mortgage for the balance, the stock is bought and paid for with the bonds of the Mutual Water Company These bonds run for 20 years from January l, 1908, with interest at 6 per cent per annum, payable semi-annu- ally in January and July of each year nothing being paid on the principal till January l. 1908. when payments of $l per share will be made each year until 1923, when the balance will be due,

showed that the urgent pressure of Ii

the demand from this element to cover
