The mouotain regions of. the Siate were deséribed: as barren and unproductive, aud the galy Jand which could ® few narrow stripe lying along the water courses. Governor Shannon of Ohio, afterwards Governor of Kansas, made a somewhat similar. statement in regard to this uf these statements; but has demonstrated that California’ is'otie uf’ the best farming States of the Union. The varwty of ciimate and evil, enubles the farmer to pro» duce suceessfully the grains aod fruita of the temperate and torrid. zone.

REASONS WHY ‘THE AMERICAN WATCH Made at WALTHAM, DIASS, Is THW BEST. It is made on the best principle. Its frame is composted of SOLID PLATES. “Nv jar can interfere with the harmony of its werking and no sudddh shock can damage its machinery. Every piece is made and finished by machinery (itself famous for its novelty, as well as for its effiectiveness) and is therefore properly made. The wateh ie what a1 mechanié¢m should be—ACCUKAT EK, SIMPLE, STRUNG AND ECONOMICAL, Except some high grades, too costly fur general use, foreign watches are ehiefly made by Women and buys;., Suely watches are composed of several hundred pieces serewed and riveted together, and require constant rePairs tokeep them in any kind of o:der. All persons why have carried *‘aucres,”’ *lepines”’ and ‘*Knglish latent Levers,” are perfectiy well awareof the truth of this statemen At the beginning of our enterprise, more than ten years ayo, it was our first object to make a thoroughly good low-priced watch for . the million, to take the place of these foreign impositions—the refuse of ‘foreign factories— which were entirely umsaleable at home and perfectly worthless everywhere. How well we have accomplished this may be understood from the fact, thai after so many years of public trial, we bow make MORE THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES, and that no others have ever given éuch universal satisfaction. While this department of our business is continued with iucreased facilities for perfect work, we are at present’ engaged im the manufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO CHRONOMETRY, unequalled by anything hitherto madby ourselves and unsurpassed by anything made in the world. For this purpose we have the amplest facilities. We have erected an addition to! our main buildings expressly for this branch of our business, and have filled it with the best workmen in our service. New machines and appliances have been constructed, which pertorm their work with. consummate delicacy and exactnees. The ehoiceat and most approved mate riale only are used and we challenge comparison between this grade of our work andthe finest imported chronomerters. We do not pretend to seli our watches for leas moiiey than foreign >} Watehes, but we do assert Wichout fear of contradiction that for the same money our product is inconiparably superior.
