Tt is understood that the Olympic

Fivebrooks, subdivision in Marin
county, as site for the new country
branch the club plans to establish
somewhere in the vicinity of San Fran
cisco short time ago the Olympic
club had under consideration the Mount
Diablo property of r. n Burgess &
Co. but. it is said, deal could not be
made satisfactory to both the club and
the property owners, and another loca-
tion is being sought.
Fivebrooks, which is one of the most
delightful spots in Marin county is an
ideal location for the country estate
of an athletic club. The surroundings
are superb, from a campers point of
view, and as an outing place it offers
all the advantages of beautiful Marin.
Many San Francisco residents are
providing themselves with the lots on
which to build summer homes in the
district.

EUROPEAN COLONY
ON SOLANO FARMS
Irrigated Lands Appeal to
Immigrants, Says Con-
sular Veteran

DR.. Otto F. Danzinger, formerly IN
the United States consular service in
Spain and who spent a dozen years
there and in travelling over all of
Europe, Is enthusiastic over the posi-
bilities of an European agricultural
colony on Solano Irrigated Farms.
Doctor Danziger recently returned To
San Francisco and last week he spent
day inspecting the Solano project.
He said
I'm all my travels I have never seen
anything equal the Solano Irrigated
Farms project. Aside from the fact that
they have lodged an immense irrigation
scheme. so thoroughly practical and
with a water supply so certain as TO
obviate the necessity of their 100000,
900 gallon reservoir. the soil itself is a
black, beautiful wheat soil that will
produce every fruit from the apricot
to the most lucious pear.
II candidly believe that a colony of
at least 500 families from the German
Swiss country, southern France, all
parts of Germany, Pomerania in par
ticular, and a good part of England
could be brought here in the next four
or five months, and they would become
a valuable political and domestic asset
to the state of California as citizens"
