LARGE PARTY IS GOING
TO MODESTO APRIL 14
The Modesto Irrigation district peo
ple evidently believe that they have
a good country for the man of mod
erate means and the capitalist invest
or, and they wisely use printer's ink
to let the world know of their desir
able section and profitable products.
Elsewhere in this issue will be noticed
a stirring announcement of the big
special train to Modesto, personally
conducted. It will leave the Arcade,
depot at 7 p. m., April 11. The object
Is to give all interested homeseekers
an easy opportunity to see the great
extent of alfalfa, dairying, orchards of
deciduous fruits and oranges, olives
and nuts and to note the wonderful
settlement and development of the
few years and which is steadily in
creasing. The committee's headquar
ters is at 52S South Spring street,
where nil information about the land
and excursion can be secured
TWO SPLENDID VALLEYS
ATTRACT CASH OF INVESTORS
Quietly but surely a combination of
capitalists and land owners have I n
going ahead half-way between boa
Angeles and San Francisco, building
up a new town—a new harbor—neW
roads and railroads. An astonishing
amount of work hus already bfgn done
and preparations have been made [or
Improvement! that are truly stupen
dous, which if carried out—and there
seems to be no doubt they will be—
will well nigh revolutionize conditions
on the central coast of California.
The location chosen for all this work
is the natural outlet for that fertile
part of the Golden State Which puds
us well as more prosalolv Inclined have
all agreed on naming "The Garden
spot of California." The Sun Joaqutn
and Arroyo Grande valleys have but
one natural nutlet in tiio. Pacific ocean,
and it coaet outlet with shipping U
cllltlee is an absolute necessity for the
merchants, farmers and producers In
these rich Held*. Oceano. Beach, as
this now place has been named, is
destined within the span of a very
few years to occupy one of the tore
most places, not alone in the minds
of the investors, but in the consider!
tion of all those who seriously con
sider California. It Is lmr.l to decide at
present whether the ple»sure-lovlng
summer reporters or the business com
munity, which Is bound to locate here,
will develop most rapidly.
