BIG RANCHES CUT
into SMALL FARMS
Sale of Country Homes With
Small Acreage Constantly
on the Increase
BY LEO STONE
Of the Firm of Rogers Stone. Sales Agents
Patterson Irrigated Farms.

There is a reason for the marked
increase in the sale of country lands
in this section of the state and it is
to be found in the fact that the big
pieces are being cut up to meet the
requirements of the small farmers
1t is only natural to suppose that
the big ranches comprising many thou
sands of acres each, selected 40 to so
years ago, contain the pick of the
vicinity in which they were selected.
These immense holdings scattered
throughout the state have really stood
in the way of progress, because they
represented single ownership.
Now with the adoption of modern
irrigation facilities one by one these
ranches are being subdivided and in
stead of one family they are being
made to support thousands of fam
lilies. The Sacramento valley and the
San Joaquin valley contain large
number of these big ranches, several
of which are already on the market
in small irrigated parcels of 10 acres
and up.
The newspapers are entitled to
credit for the manner in which they
have brought these lands into public
notice. That we are getting more in
quiries and selling more country lands
in this section now is due in a great
measure to the more liberal policy Of
the newspapers, which appear to have
recognized the fact that the proper
development of the city depends upon
the peopling of the tributary lands.
The Call has done good work in di-
recting attention to the many oppor-
tunities for home seekers in the San
Joaquin valley and with united effort
on the part of all the newspapers we
can soon make San Francisco what it
should be, the gateway to the farming
lands of the state
The time is particularly ripe now
for an active campaign of publicity on
the part of the press The Panama
Pacific exposition will be held here and
San Francisco will be so clearly in
the limelight all over the world that
a very little effort will turn the face
of every California home seeker toward
this city 1t can in fact be made the
mecca of all home seekers looking for
lands in California, and whether they
finally settle in northern, central or
southern California, they will have
made San Francisco their headquarters
in the state and have had impressed
upon their minds forever its size, dig
nifty and Importance as the largest city
on the coast, and as the central dis
tributing point for everything. includ-
ing home seekers.
After all that has been said and may
be said the best reason of all why the
sales of country lands are increasing
rapidly is because we have the soil and
we have the water and can raise
everything we go after in bigger guam
titles and at less expense than any
other section of the state.
