Among the rooms is a large sun parlor, facing east and south. There are two large, noble live oak shade trees in the right places, eucalypti, palm, and orange, with plenty of ground for a good garden. Water piping well distributed. A bungalow of three rooms, besides large sleeping porch and bathroom and toilet. Modern plumbing and electric lighted. A good well 96 feet deep, water rising to 17 feet of the surface, responding faithfully to a centrifugal pump. Power plant for pumping. A good tank house 30 feet high, with 3,000-gallon tank, giving good pressure. Also a roomy, cool, dry garage. Both electrically lighted. Chicken house and yard. All in good condition, built from 1905 to 1916.

D. A. church, 10 minutes' walk to a bank. Fourteen trains daily each way stop at the station; a good bus service every hour. Town "dry," two banks, five churches, etc. Climate the best in the world. A good community. Educational advantages excellent. Will send post-card views to persons interested. An excellent place for private sanitarium of an S. D. A. physician. Prefer cash, but will give terms on proper security. Address, Milton C. Wilcox, Mountain View, Cal.
