Where Returns Are Better— 
I N Sutter Basin, California, every dollar you invest in land, seed, equipment, livestock, etc., 
and every hour you invest in labor should pay you a bigger cash return than elsewhere. 
While this is primarily the result of the greater productivity of the wonderfully fertile, 
drained and irrigated, river-bottom land in Sutter Basin, it is also due, in a large measure, 
to the better organization of the farmers here. 
Where and What Sutter Basin Is 
Sutter Basin lands comprise 45,000 acres of “river-bottom” alluvial soil that is generally 
recognized as being the equal of the richest, strongest, and most easily worked land to be 
found anywhere in the west. It is adapted to profitable production of nearly every com¬ 
mercial crop grown in the Great Valley of California — fruits, vegetables, grains, alfalfa, 
: -j as well as being ideally suited for poultry and livestock raising and dairying. 
A complete irrigation system is already in operation with 45 miles of main canals and 
137 miles of laterals, and also an excellent drainage system which has 18 miles of main 
canals and 240 miles of lateral ditches. These two essentials to successful agriculture, com¬ 
bined with the remarkably fertile soil and balmy climate of this valley, are insurance against 
crop failure. This land is being divided into suitable farms, for the kind of farming for 
which wanted. Only industrious, capable farmers are invited to settle here, assuring pro¬ 
gressive development of this tract by the very best class of people. 
Situated 22 miles north of Sacramento, the capital of California, and only 116 miles from 
San Francisco and Oakland, with excellent transportation by railroad, water (Sacramento 
River) and concrete highways, Sutter Basin has every advantage in its relation to conveni¬ 
ent markets and contact with the outside world. Three large public warehouses within the 
Basin and a 640-acre townsite in the center of the project are also important considerations.
