beginning of subdivision and modern
methods of farming in Yolo county, as
this is the first tract of land in Yolo
county to be subdivided for agricul-
tural purposes.
The company is composed of William

silk company; a. III. Bergstrom and
Eric Lange of the firm of Lange &

cisco; Charles ]. Cox Jr. of the firm of
Cox & Co. OF San Francisco, and

The source of water supply is Clear
lake, q short distance away (north) In
the mountains. The only outlet to
Clear lake is Cache creek, which flows
down within a quarter of mile from
the Irrigated Valleys land company's
property and then past the city of
woodland into the Sacramento river.
Cache creek never overiows, but
enough water passes to waste contin-
ualfy to irrigate hundreds of thousands
of acres.
Several Sarge eastern companies are
negotiating for the water rights 20
Cache creek and Clear lake for the
enormous power that could be generat-
ed therefrom.
This tract of land will be known and
advertised as the Woodland tract.

of the property.
The Woodland tract was formerly a
large level domain devoted to the rails
ing of grain and cattle. 1t will now be
subdivided, into little 90 acre farms
under irrigation and cultivated accord

this tract will revolutionize the farm
ing industry of this county. The Irri-

mainder of the money that was re-
ouired. This schoolhouse. has a
striking facade. 1t varies in construc-
tion from other buildings of the new
group representing San Francisco s
educational progress. The cost was
about $4,000. The building contains
u large classrooms, a library, teach

ern conveniences. II stands on a
slightly location and has a southern
and eastern exposure, commanding a
fine view of the bay, the western
shores of Alameda county and a large
part of the city of San Francisco.
It is manifestly- impossible to de-
scribe each of the new schoolhouses
on account of the space that such de-
tailed description would require The
pictures of the school buildings that
either have been constructed or are
on the way to construction make UP
an interesting and extremely pleasing
collection.
In addition to the large sums that
have been paid for completed school
structures, the sum of $1,732,550 is
represented by school building con-
tracts that have been let and are in
execution Bonds have been author
szed for the construction of a poly
technic high school in the park PAN
handle district. A. splendid structure
will also be erected for the Lowell
high school after site shall be Sc
lected.
