appointed TO lay out blocks and streets
west of Larkin and Ninth streets, and
TO extend these to the charter line of
street, This tract is also in, two di-
visions the one lying north of Market
street and Duboce avenue. forming part
of what is now known as the West
ern addition, and the other lying soutn
of the same streets and embracing por-
tions of what are now known as the
surveys as a base, the main subdi-
visions of the city at present known
as the Western addition. the Mission
and the POtrero, together with Herner's S
addition, have been extended to present
limits.
I'm 1862, by an act of the legislature,
approved April 26 of that year. there
was appointed a commission, consist
ing OF the then city and county sur
veyor George c. Potter. Milo Hoad-
ley and Thaddeus r. Brooks. This
commission was called the board of
city engineers.
The act was again amended, by eX-
tending the time for the completion of
the survey work, by another act of the
legislature, approved April 4, 1864.
The greater portion of the work
under these acts was confined to the
section bounded by Larkin, Market and
Valencia streets on the west Tracy or
Fourteenth street and Mission creek on
the south and the bay OF San Francisco
on the east and north. Operations,
however, were extended as far west as
Devisadero and Castro streets and as
far south as Twenty second street.
Many irregularities appear in the
blocks and street lines as laid out by
this board. but this is greatly to be re-
GREETED, as upon the work done by that
board depends the accuracy of our
present surveys. This work was con-
firmed and legalized by resolution No.
6S4 of the board of supervisors, Janu-
airy 30, 1866.
I'm 1868. by order No. 500 of the
Il. a commission was appointed to lay
of in blocks and streets that portion
of the county lying between the char
ter line of 1851 and the Pacific ocean.
which includes all of what is now
known as the outside lands (Richmond
and Sunset districts) and a portion of
the Western addition.
The remaining portions of the city
have sprung up, from time to time, as
laid out by different individuals or as
sociations. and are generally known as
the homesteads, with the exception
of that section known as South San

PREDICTS GREAT
FUTURE FOR CITY
Sees Million Population in San
Francisco When Canal Opens

1t is a safe prediction that San
Francisco is on the eve of the most
prosperous period of its wonderful his
tory said F. NJ. Pickering of Baldwin
& Howell. 1T is unquestionably the
best built city in the world today, and
if at the opening of the Panama canal
and the Inauguration of the world S
fair we do not have a population of
more than 100000 people l shall be
greatly surprised. Money is flowing
into this state in unprecedented
amounts Eastern and foreign capital
lists are directing their attention to
California and to San Francisco par
ticularly. with the result that the total
resources of the banks of the state are
close to a billion dollars. This money
is going into profitable improvements
calculated to add to the wealth of San
Francisco as the one great metropolis
of the west and the principal sea port of
the Pacific.
When YOU consider the population
of California you can get a pretty good
idea Of the possibilities for the future.
We have only 10000 900 people in the
state, while. if we were populated up
TO our possibilities as Great Britain is,
we could support at least S0,000,0 600.
The German empire isn't much larger
than California, and not nearly SO
favored in natural advantages, and yet
it supports $4,000, 900 people.
I'm fact, California hasn't begun to
develop. For a generation we were
connected to the outside world only by
one transcontinental railroad. Today
the Southern Pacific, Central Pacific,
Santa Fe. Union Pacific and western
Pacific operate to San Francisco. The
running time to New York is being
steadily reduced. and vast sums are
-, f,lr -.
ping and manufacturing developments
so that by the time the canal is in
operation, and our great worlds fair
advertises the fact to the world, you'll
see san Francisco one of the greatest
cities Of the world.
The bank community of san, Fran
cisco has forseen the wonders of the
future, and in a most commendabl
patriotic and honorable manner is en-
couraging developments of every de-
scription More than $65, 900 900 in
crease in bank resources over those OF
last year prove the wisdom of the
investments made in 1909 by San Fran
cisco's financiers and / would not be
surprised to see even a greater in
crease in 1910.
4 believe that we are at the thresh-
old of the greatest period of prosperity
that any large city ever enjoyed The
coming year will see increased values
in realty, a great rush for choice in
side business properties and a heavy
demand for suburban lots for building
purposes. To my mind, the develop
ments of 1910 will go right on at an
ever increasing pace until we reach
1915 and the opening of the fair. We
have precedent to go by, for history
proves, without exception, that every
city that ever held a big fair enjoyed
a wonderful period of prosperity dur
ing the times that the plans for the
exposition were being carried OUT
The San Francisco call., 1910-01-08
TOURIST TRAVEL
WILL Be HEAVY
Great Activity Looked for in
California Real Estate, Both
Urban and Rural

The advance bookings at the tourist
hotels throughout California already
indicate a 25 per cent increase of west
ward travel during 1910. Railroad
men, who are keeping track of in
quiries in the east. place the proba bic
increase at from % to 90 per cent.
Individuals in a position to feel the
pulse of travel estimate that the In
crease will run from 20 to So per cent.
Whatever the figures may ultimately
amount to it is difficult to determine,
but that there will be a substantial
increase over last years banner record
and that a greater PERCENTAGE than
ever will be prepared to buy lands
when they get here is unquestionably
a fact.
"California today is attracting the
serious attention of the entire United
States" said j. z. Green, manager of
the country land department of Bald
win & Howell. Our famous California
stories have proved to be facts and
the wonders of this great state are
beginning to be realized. No other
section Of the union offers such induce
ments for colonists as does California.
In the prairie states of the middle west
the farmer-who barely makes a living
on so acres of land, costing him $12,-
fornia, where crops mature all times
of the year and where a family can
live better on 20 acres of alfalfa
meadow than he can from 80 acres of
corn or wheat land in the middle
west"
Green believes that from this direc-
tion will result the greatest activity
in real estate California has ever ex-
perienced. Additional capital and
population will enliven the realty mar
ket in all its departments.
Baldwin & Howell are now devoting
a large part of their efforts toward
country lands, listing particularly large
areas suitable for subdivision purposes.
They have received a great many in
quiries for such property, but are ex-
ercising much care in recommending
purchasers on account of the magni-
tude of the sales involved and the
subsequent Importance of submitting
propositions of carefully proved merit
