Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greater Sacramento, Her Achievements, Resources and Possibilities To the fifth river in agricultural importance in jthe whole United States, watering this great Valley from end to end, and upon whose bosom, boats laden with every product of farm, garden, mill and mine, go back and forth between San Francisco and Red Bluff, a distance of 300 miles. Think of it! A navigable river winding through millions of fertile acres for more than 300 miles, and not only does this magnificent stream afford irrigation and shipping transportation, but as a source of food supply, it is unsurpassed. Millions of pounds of fish are taken from this river for shipment abroad as well as home consumption. I say to the mechanic and miner, the agriculturalist and the laborer, that from Mt. Shasta to Sacramento, and from Vacaville to Newcastle, there is work and wealth beyond your fondest dream. To the banker and lawyer, merchant and professional man, here is a section whose possibilities for commercial development is unsurpassed. To the manufacturer, the resources of this Valley are beyond cavil, the grandest of any section in the United States to-day. The multiplicity of raw material, cheap transportation, the unlimited electric power that can be developed, are advantages for manufacturers that cannot remain unnoticed by the great manufacturers of this country. To the tourists, no section of the Great West contains more interest from both scenic and historical standpoint, than does this great Valley.
