The boundary of the Rancho commences ttiree and a half miles from the city limits of Los Angeles, and extends tothe Pacific Ocean. Topography. "Centinela" is made up of one broad, level, fertile valley of over twenty thousand acres, and beautiful fertile rolling hills near the ocean. Soil. The soil is an exceedingly fertile loam, and ls, without exception, the richest and most productive in Southern California. Its vicin ity to tbe ocean insures a crop without irriga tion. Excel lent wheet lias been raised for the last two years upon the hills adjoining the < ocean. This wheat field contains 1,000 acres and covers the lightest soil upon the Rancho. ' There is no alkali or barren land. Semi-Tropical Fruits. There are a few bearing orange and lime trees upon the Centinela, and the fruit they produce ls of the largest and finest quality. There ia an orchard containing 6,000 orange trees three yean old, and 1,700 almond, lime and lemon trees. The almond, lime and lemon trees will bear fruit in 1875. 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. The entire or chard can be taken care of by three men with ■ix horses. Tbe orchard will be kept undi vided by the company to save the expense of each shareholder having a few trees to take care of. Each share will entitle the owner to about I&trees In the orchard and about llie same number in the nursery. The almond, lime and lemon trees will yield an immedi ate return. In five years each orange tree will produce $20 per annum, or $300 per share for those now planted. There are flowers in the garden in bloom every day in tbe yea Sheep. Afterthe lambing season in January the flock of sheep will number about 14,000 and they will be kept undivided, to save expenses to the shareholders. This will give about thirty sheep to each share. The sheep will produce, in increase and wool,over $2 each yearly.over expenses. They will be grazed upon outlying and unsold lands of the company. The "uo fence" law ls in force in I.os Angeles county, to supply every lot with crystal, cool, sweet water. Climate. The climate of the Centinela ia, without ex ception, the finest and most equable in the world. It varies but little throughout the year. The mean temperature is about 00 deg. The mercury fails but little below 80 deg. in Winter and rises but little above 00 deg. in Summer. You sleep under one pair of blan kets and with your bed-room window open every night in the year. Agriculture. The soil of tbe Centinela ls admirably adapted for all kinds of grain, vegetables and fruit. Water. The Centinela creek rises upon the rancho and runs through the northern portion of the tract. It affords an abundance of clear spring water. Tbe source of tbe Centinela creek consuls of several natural artesian springs, •bowing that artesian water can be obtained by boring. The Town. A square mile Is laid off at an eligible point on the tract, with lots 25x140; avenue 100 feet and streets 80 feet wide. A stream of water can be brought In so as to supply every lot with crystal, cool, sweet water. Provision will be made for a College and Farm School. A large lot will beset apart for each relig ious denomination. A block will also be given for tlie erection of a large hall by the different Fraternal, Orange aud Temperance societies. Pare.

Maiitin, General Agent California Immigrant Union—Dear Sir:—l havejust vis ited the "Centinela and Sausal Redondo" Hancho, and driven over the land described in your advertisement. With all my experience In the southern part of California, I have seen nothing to surpass this tract in fertility of soil, beauty of location, and advantage of easy ac cess and salubrity or climate. For purposes or 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 lt ls unavailable for farms, orchards or home steads. It can besubdivided Into lots ranging 'from five acres to several hundred acres and every acre of Itcan be made productive. Water Is abundant and convenient. The land Is subject to easy irrigation; and lean vouch for the fact that it will produce anything that flourishes in Los Angeles or Santa Barbara I counties. It |a my confident opinion that the 1 value of shares lv this magnificent tract will be quadrupled within two years—such is the extraordinary Influx of Immigration to the .vicinity of Los Angeles at the present time. Wishing yon success In your undertaking, I am. very truly yours, J. Rosa Browns. , bIVtAV AND SALS STABLES. mt FASHION fe?
