Parties desiring to purchase SHOULD BE ON THE GROUND a few days prior \* the sale, In order to EXAMINE THE PROPERTY. Title, UNITED STATES PATENT. Situation. "Centinela," with tho addition of the "Sau sal Redondo," contains 25,000 acres. Tbe boundary of the Rancho commences three and a ha"lf miles from the city limits of Los Angeles, and extends tothe Pacific Ocean. Topography. "Centinela" is madeupof one broad, level, fertile valley of over twenty thousand acres, and beautiful fertile rolling lulls near the ocean. Soil. The soil Is an exceedingly fertile loam, and is, without exception, the richest and most productive in Southern California. Its vicin ity to the ocean Insures a crop without irriga tion. Excellent wlieet has been raised for the last two years upon the hills adjoining the ocean. This whear field contains 1,000 acres and covers the lightest soil upon the Rancho. There is no alkali or barren land. Semi-Tropical Fruits. There aro a few bearing orange anil lime trees upon the Centlnela, ami the fruit they produce Is of the largest and finest quality. There Is an orchard containing 0,000 orange trees three years old, and 1,700 almond, lime and lemon trees. The almond, lime und lemon trees will bear fruit in 1575. The or ange trees will bear in five years. There are 7,000 three-year-old orange trees In the nur sery near the orchard. Fig, pepper and gum trees grow without Irrigation. Toe entire or chard can be taken care of by three men with six horses. Tlie orchard will be kept undi vided by the company to save tlie expense of each shareholder having a few trees to lake care of. Kach share will entitle the owner to about 15 trees in the orchard and about the same number in the nursery. The almond, lime and lemon trees will yield an Immedi ate return. In live years each orange tree will produce S2O per annum, or S,!00 per share for those now planted. There are flowers in the garden in bloom every day in the year. Sheep. A flock of about 14,000 Sheep Will be kept undivided, to save expenses to the share holders. This will give about thirty sheep to each share. The sheep will produce, in In crease and wool, over £2 each yearly, over ex penses. They will be grazed upon outlying and unsold lands of the company. Tlie "no fence " law Is in force in Los Angeles county. Climate. The climate of tho Centinela is, without ex ception, the linest and most equable in the world.

It affords an abundance of clear spring water. Tho source of the Centinela creek ConsUts of several natural artesian springs, showing thai artesian water can bo obtained by boring. The Town.

With all my experience in the southern part of California, I have seen not li Ing to surpass this trim in fortuity of soli beauty of location, and advantage of easy ac cess and salubrity of climate. For purposes of colonization, I know of no large body of land so near a growing commercial centre*, In Cali fornia or elsewhere, to equal it. No part of It Is unavailable for farms, orchurds or home steads. It can hesubdivided into lots ranging from five acres to several uunered acres and every acre of It can be made- productive. Water Is abundant and convenient. Tlie land is subject to easy Irrigation; and lean vouch for the fact that It will produce anything that flourishes In Los Angeles or Saiita Barbara counties. It Is my confident opinion that the value of shares In this magnificent tract will bo quadrupled within two years—such is the extraordinary Influx ot immigration to the vielnityof Los Angeles at the present time.

My little boy, over two years old, has suf fered terribly for more than a year from ob struction of the urinary organs. All means of relief seemed unavailing, until I was ad vised to consult wit li Dr. LEAL of Los Angeles. After a critical examination lie found and re moved a stone from tlie uretha weighing five grains. Immediately relief followed, and my child is now well. W. .1. JONES. Gratitude. Grateful, not only forentire relief from terri ble suffering of seven years' standing, bnt a perfect cure of internal piles by an operation scarcely moro painful than my dally suffer ings before the operation. I feel It a duty I owe to those similarly affiicted to give this tes timonial ofthe skillful and efficient treatment of DR. .1. H. LEAL, of Los Angeles. Dr. Leul's success is more highly appreciated from the fact that several ol the prominent physicians of Los Angelas had treated me without under standing my disease, and of course without success.

Exchange Hotel, i Wilmington, March ,'IU, 1874. f Having suffered severely with chronic In flammation of the eyes, I had determined to go to San Francisco for treatment, when I was referred to DR.
