Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad, the Capay Valley Land Company, a corporation composed chiefly of the Directors and Officersof the Southern Pacific Company, purchased on the line of the proposed road, and chiefly, in Capay Valley itself, through Madison in Yolo county—several large bodies of the choicest lands to be found in that beautiful and fertile valley. The construction of the Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad is being pushed with great energy, and will reach very early completion. The line of this road passes immediately through the lands owned by the Capay Valley Land Company, which lands will be immediately subdivided into small tracts, several town property plaeed on the market. Capay Valley is located on the western side of Yolo county, and is oneof the most fertile and picturesque valleys on the Pacific Coast. The lands inthis valley have heretofore been owned in large holdings; the growing of wheat has been tie chief agricultural industry, which, owing to the great fertility of the soil, the warmth and salubrity of the climate, the heavy annual previpitation of rain, and the perfect protection which the configuration of the valley affords against the north winds, has proven highly profitable! At intervals, however, throughout the valley, orchards may be seen, and these experiments in the line of horticulture have demonstated the full capabilities of the valley for the growth of all citrus, semi-tropical and temperate fruits. Orange and lemon trees of most thrifty growth may be seen in the gardens and orchards. Grapes, apricots, figs, pears,cherries, almonds, peaches, and all the other fruita to be found in the most favored localities, reach here the greatest perfection. The very earliest fruits and vegetables appearingin San Francisco and other markets are grown in this valley. With respect to early production, Capay Valley ranks fully with, if not superior to, the celebrated Vaca and Pleasant Valleys. This fact alone confers a very high premium upon the lands to be be offered. The orchardist, vineyardist and gardener of Capay Valley can place ri pe fruits and‘ vegetables in the San Francisco and Chicago markets at the high rate usually obtained for early fruit, and from four to, six weeksin advance ofnearly every other portion of the State of California. Under completely analogous conditions in Vaca Valley, lands have reached a valuation of $600 an acre, and have proven highly profitable investments at that price. The lands to be offered by the Capay Valley Land Company are in ajl respects equal in fertility, and lie under equal climatic advantages with the most favored orchard and garden lands of the S‘ate. One of the leading objects of the purchase of this land by a syndicate of pers8ns interested in the success of thé railroad to be constructed was to secure the subdivision of the land into small holdings, and to pro mote the density of settlement. Keeping vided into ten and twenty acre lots, and individuals will be strictly limited to the ownership of a single lot. Town sites will be located as near to the centre of the tracts as may be found convenient or judicious, and the purchasers of orchard or garden land in small tracts will be permitted to purchase not to exceed five lots in the town site plats. In this way it is designed to establish populous and t riving communities, whose growth and prosperity shall be based upon small holdings of very fertile and highly profitable lands. Ten acres of this fertile land under climatic conditions so favorable to orchard and garden culture may be made as profitable and. responsive to intelligentindustry as 160 or 820 acresof lad de voted to the growth of cereals. The very early maturity of fruits and vegetables already alltided to will secure to the cultivator the highest market price, while the road to be constructed, being under the management and control of the owners of the land to be offered, will afford every facility for the shipment of fruits and vegetables, and in every respect promote the success of these enterprises. Geographically, Capay Valley lies immediately west of the beautiful and thriving city of Woodland, the county seat of Yolo county. Its trend is northwest and southeast, having a length of twenty-six miles and an average width of three miles. Cache creek is a very considerable stream of water even at its lowest stages, and every piece of land offered is either intersected or washed upon one of its bound@ries by this stream of pure cold water. Gardens and orcnards may he brought to the highest stage of perfection without irrigation. The annualrain is abundant for all horticultural purposes, but should irrigation be desired for the purpose of producing more than one crop of vegetables in a single season, or for the purpose of producing perennial crops, abun: dant water facilities are at hand for that purpose. The line of the Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad Company is being graded from Madison, the present terminus of the Vaca Valley and Clear Lake Railroad, westward through the valley, and the road will be equipped and in running order at an éarlv day through its entire length. Itis the desi,u to offer these lands at rates and upon terms of payment which will afford the highest encouragement to their actual occupation by a large and industrious class of people. Surveys for t:wn sites and subdivisions of these large tracts. f lands are in progress, and maps of such sut veys are in preparation. Owing to the large number of inquiries ning the intention 0! tie Capay Valley Land Company regardin: these lands, this preliminary announcement has been deemed necessary. For further E pertouiars and for maps and descriptive circulars, or for immediate information, inquiry is directed to WM. H.

Dimensions: Length 48 inches; height, inches; depth 22 inches. NEW STYLE NOW READY FOR 1887. I EATT WS BES'T is the leading style It is beyond doubt the very best for the money in the world. DESCRIPTION OF BEATTY’S BEST. Solid Black Walnut. It is a magnificent cabinet or parlor organ, suitable forthe purlor of a millionaire, built from the very choicest of materials the market. atlords or ready money can buy. Made after an upright Piano Forte, with three bellows ecombined—a new scientific plan—so as to render all the sweetest melodies possible from tue Golden Tongue Keeds, patented, while at the same time doing away with so many stops to confuse the performer, yet at the same time bringing out sweeter music than ever. In this Organ attention is paid more articularly to its music, yet the case is finshed very neat bu plain, finished light, sd that the , Ear can see for himeelf that itis not imitation walnut built froin pine wood, but solid walnut, built plain, so as not to take dust or dirt. Containg 14 full sets of golden tongue reeds of one-half octave each, and 12 full stops. ‘The two knee stops throw on the balance. No dummies”: Equal to a $0-sfop Organ. Elegantly finished and embellished with handsome polished panels and exquisite {ret work designs. Thus it will be seen we offeran instrument having every requisite of the most perfect parlor Organ in a handsome sulid walnut case. OCTAVE COUPLER The Octave Coupler differs from those in any other styles, and is the greatest invention of the age in reed Organs. It is a pa tent-divided octave coupler, and couples ful' five octaves, thus doubling the power, itis divided at the third octave, has two coupler stops, so. that the bass and treble can be coupled toxether or separately,as desired, It is made of strong coppered steel rods, and isan invaluable improvement on the old pernicious 35-cent wooden couplers in general use, which couples only four octaves, have eres one coupler stop, which warp, swell and disarrange the entire action, To avoid getting a 35-cent wooden coupler, buy no Organ that bas not two coupler stops,and that does not couple both ways, up and down, Examine the stops carefully and if ree cannot find two coupler stops do not uy the Organ; it bus a wooden coupler,and a wooden coupler is a continual source of annoyance, and renders an organ worthless after a few months’ use. Best pantented stop action to be found in the world. Daniel F. Beatty, Washington, New Jersey. Notice of Stockholders Meeting.

W. P. Sowden, Atty for Insolvent. au28 S: Brainard’s Sons, Publishers . seta! ‘COMMERCIAL STREET. .NEVADA CITY 7 Preliminary Announcement of the Oapay Valley Land Company. Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad, the Capay Valley Land Company, a corporation composed chiefly of the Directors and Officersof the Southern Pacific Company, purchased on the line of the proposed road, and chiefly, in Capay Valley itself, through Madison in Yolo county—several large bodies of the choicest lands to be found in that beautiful and fertile valley. The construction of the Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad is being pushed with great energy, and will reach very early completion. The line of this road passes immediately through the lands owned by the Capay Valley Land Company, which lands will be immediately subdivided into small tracts, several town property plaeed on the market. Capay Valley is located on the western side of Yolo county, and is oneof the most fertile and picturesque valleys on the Pacific Coast. The lands inthis valley have heretofore been owned in large holdings; the growing of wheat has been tie chief agricultural industry, which, owing to the great fertility of the soil, the warmth and salubrity of the climate, the heavy annual previpitation of rain, and the perfect protection which the configuration of the valley affords against the north winds, has proven highly profitable! At intervals, however, throughout the valley, orchards may be seen, and these experiments in the line of horticulture have demonstated the full capabilities of the valley for the growth of all citrus, semi-tropical and temperate fruits. Orange and lemon trees of most thrifty growth may be seen in the gardens and orchards. Grapes, apricots, figs, pears,cherries, almonds, peaches, and all the other fruita to be found in the most favored localities, reach here the greatest perfection. The very earliest fruits and vegetables appearingin San Francisco and other markets are grown in this valley. With respect to early production, Capay Valley ranks fully with, if not superior to, the celebrated Vaca and Pleasant Valleys. This fact alone confers a very high premium upon the lands to be be offered. The orchardist, vineyardist and gardener of Capay Valley can place ri pe fruits and‘ vegetables in the San Francisco and Chicago markets at the high rate usually obtained for early fruit, and from four to, six weeksin advance ofnearly every other portion of the State of California. Under completely analogous conditions in Vaca Valley, lands have reached a valuation of $600 an acre, and have proven highly profitable investments at that price. The lands to be offered by the Capay Valley Land Company are in ajl respects equal in fertility, and lie under equal climatic advantages with the most favored orchard and garden lands of the S‘ate. One of the leading objects of the purchase of this land by a syndicate of pers8ns interested in the success of thé railroad to be constructed was to secure the subdivision of the land into small holdings, and to pro mote the density of settlement. Keeping vided into ten and twenty acre lots, and individuals will be strictly limited to the ownership of a single lot. Town sites will be located as near to the centre of the tracts as may be found convenient or judicious, and the purchasers of orchard or garden land in small tracts will be permitted to purchase not to exceed five lots in the town site plats. In this way it is designed to establish populous and t riving communities, whose growth and prosperity shall be based upon small holdings of very fertile and highly profitable lands. Ten acres of this fertile land under climatic conditions so favorable to orchard and garden culture may be made as profitable and. responsive to intelligentindustry as 160 or 820 acresof lad de voted to the growth of cereals. The very early maturity of fruits and vegetables already alltided to will secure to the cultivator the highest market price, while the road to be constructed, being under the management and control of the owners of the land to be offered, will afford every facility for the shipment of fruits and vegetables, and in every respect promote the success of these enterprises. Geographically, Capay Valley lies immediately west of the beautiful and thriving city of Woodland, the county seat of Yolo county. Its trend is northwest and southeast, having a length of twenty-six miles and an average width of three miles. Cache creek is a very considerable stream of water even at its lowest stages, and every piece of land offered is either intersected or washed upon one of its bound@ries by this stream of pure cold water. Gardens and orcnards may he brought to the highest stage of perfection without irrigation. The annualrain is abundant for all horticultural purposes, but should irrigation be desired for the purpose of producing more than one crop of vegetables in a single season, or for the purpose of producing perennial crops, abun: dant water facilities are at hand for that purpose. The line of the Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Railroad Company is being graded from Madison, the present terminus of the Vaca Valley and Clear Lake Railroad, westward through the valley, and the road will be equipped and in running order at an éarlv day through its entire length. Itis the

desi,u to offer these lands at rates and upon terms of payment which will afford the highest encouragement to their actual occupation by a large and industrious class of people. Surveys for t:wn sites and subdivisions of these large tracts. f lands are in progress, and maps of such sut veys are in preparation. Owing to the large number of inquiries ning the intention 0! tie Capay Valley Land Company regardin: these lands, this preliminary announcement has been deemed necessary. For further E pertouiars and for maps and descriptive circulars, or for immediate information, inquiry is directed to WM. H.

Dimensions: Length 48 inches; height, inches; depth 22 inches. NEW STYLE NOW READY FOR 1887. I EATT WS BES'T is the leading style It is beyond doubt the very best for the money in the world. DESCRIPTION OF BEATTY’S BEST. Solid Black Walnut. It is a magnificent cabinet or parlor organ, suitable forthe purlor of a millionaire, built from the very choicest of materials the market. atlords or ready money can buy. Made after an upright Piano Forte, with three bellows ecombined—a new scientific plan—so as to render all the sweetest melodies possible from tue Golden Tongue Keeds, patented, while at the same time doing away with so many stops to confuse the performer, yet at the same time bringing out sweeter music than ever. In this Organ attention is paid more articularly to its music, yet the case is finshed very neat bu plain, finished light, sd that the , Ear can see for himeelf that itis not imitation walnut built froin pine wood, but solid walnut, built plain, so as not to take dust or dirt. Containg 14 full sets of golden tongue reeds of one-half octave each, and 12 full stops. ‘The two knee stops throw on the balance. No dummies”: Equal to a $0-sfop Organ. Elegantly finished and embellished with handsome polished panels and exquisite {ret work designs. Thus it will be seen we offeran instrument having every requisite of the most perfect parlor Organ in a handsome sulid walnut case. OCTAVE COUPLER The Octave Coupler differs from those in any other styles, and is the greatest invention of the age in reed Organs. It is a pa tent-divided octave coupler, and couples ful' five octaves, thus doubling the power, itis divided at the third octave, has two coupler stops, so. that the bass and treble can be coupled toxether or separately,as desired, It is made of strong coppered steel rods, and isan invaluable improvement on the old pernicious 35-cent wooden couplers in general use, which couples only four octaves, have eres one coupler stop, which warp, swell and disarrange the entire action, To avoid getting a 35-cent wooden coupler, buy no Organ that bas not two coupler stops,and that does not couple both ways, up and down, Examine the stops carefully and if ree cannot find two coupler stops do not uy the Organ; it bus a wooden coupler,and a wooden coupler is a continual source of annoyance, and renders an organ worthless after a few months’ use. Best pantented stop action to be found in the world. Daniel F. Beatty, Washington, New Jersey. Notice of Stockholders Meeting.
