Y OU will find, in Sutter Basin, California, the kind of farm you have always 
longed for — a farm where balmy climate, wonderfully fertile river-bottom soil, and 
controlled moisture combine to produce the greatest yields per acre of all kinds of crops. 
The soil is the fine, rich, silt-wash accumulation of centuries, deposited by the Sacra* 
mento and Feather rivers in the great fork just above the point where these two streams 
run together. Fertile, clean, uniform, level—it is land that you can farm with the least 
effort and the most profit! 
45,000 Acres to Choose From 
In Sutter Basin 45,000 acres of this excellent river-bottom land are under cultivation. 
There is opportunity here for the fruit grower, general farmer, truck gardener, dairyman, 
breeder of purebred cattle and hogs, and poultry man. It is a ready-made, miniature 
agricultural empire with complete irrigation and drainage systems already in operation, 
a railroad through the center of the tract with three townsites already established, cheap 
water transportation on the Sacramento river, concrete highways in all directions, and 
excellent markets for all forms of farm produce. Sacramento, just 22 miles away, San 
Francisco, 100 miles distant, Oakland, and all the ports of the Pacific are outlets for 
Sutter Basin products. 
California at Its Best 
Life is sweeter in California. And California is at its best ki Sutter Basin. The climate 
is ideal. Records of the U. S. Weather Bureau at Sacramento show a variation of less than 
27 degrees mean temperature between January and July. What more agreeable climate 
could you find anywhere! 
Schools, churches, business and social centers—here you will find every factor in modern 
business and social life—conveniently reached over splendid highways.
