PROSPECTIVE REVIEW.
We have now finished our descriptive local matter, and from what we have written we trust the reader can form a very correct estimate of the importance, value and general characteristics of Yolo County. Before we close this vol- ume we desire to say a few words to
Emigrants,
And to those who desire to see this county peopled by an industrious and energetic population, who shall settle on the rich lands which lie so invitingly before them, making permanent homes in our midst, thus adding to the general wealth and prosperity of the county. Such is our earnest wish, and such, we believe, is the wish of all who have the interest of the county at heart and possess liberal views regarding the right of labor to seek a home among us. Especially do we desire to welcome that class of emigrants who come to till the soil, to extract from thence the wealth now slumbering there. We desire to see these broad plains dotted with farmhouses, each of which shall be a home, the citadel of a homestead. We desire to see the now unoccupied hillsides settled, and in place of the dry, parched, brown surface, behold green vineyards and pleas-

ant fields of fruit, whose annually increasing wealth shall swell the golden tide until its shallow stream shall assume its true proportions, and, from a rivulet, become a mighty river. Until such changes shall have been made, the real wealth and capabilities of the county can only be conjec- tured.
It is true that we desire to see this change, promising, as it does, so much of good, so much that is desirable, The most careless reader of these pages cannot fail of arriving at a correct conclusion regarding the capability of the county to support a population four-fold its present num- ber. In order to secure an increase of population, it would be proper to enumerate the advantages we have to offer emigrants to induce them to cast their lot with us, How- ever much we may wish it were otherwise, truth compels us to admit that those advantages are very few. Let us enumerate them :
A soil of surpassing fertility, a genial climate, good water (generally casy of obtaining), a healthy country, good schools, and more than an average variety of relig- ious denominations with which to affiliate.
That is about all we think of, and more than rightfully belongs in the list, for the incomparable soil of which Cali- fornians are so apt to boast is no longer open for entry by the poor man, be he immigrant or native.
It seems rather rough on speculators and Immigrant Aid Societies to even attempt to disprove the oft-repeated as- sertion that California has lands enough for all who choose to settle within her borders. We will not deny the asser- tion. It is true-if the parties seeking land are not par- ticular regarding quantity, location, quality or price. But still, with all due deference to the journals (who should know better) that constantly reiterate the cry of free lands for immigrants, we purpose to state briefly the inducements to immigrants that are presented by Yolo County. The immigrant desires land good land, Government land- such as he can enter at Government price, such as he can till, and from which he can receive immediate returns. There is no such land in Yolo County; and we submit the
