Tho prusont yield bids fair to bo oho of tins hunt.in several years in point of quantity and quality that iu, juioinosH,' fulness, smooth" noasof rind and eh'idiilinoss. Tho businoss of growing: oranges in this part of tho Golden Stato ia about &J years old. About, a dozen orango trees woro planted by tho monks about tho historic old Franciscan Mission, at San Gabriel, in 18'J'J, and thoir yi^oi: and fecundity after f>o years attracted tho attention of the citizens in tho slow, iiidobo pueblo of Los Angeles of tho 70's, -Hnind for somo ten years thoro woro aov- eral largo orango groves in what is jiow tho heart of tho city of Los An geles. Thoy were .souroea of immonsa profit to thoir owners, bat in thoso days there wore no railroads in Los Angeles and through Southern California, and tho market for oranges was limited to 'flan Francisco, which was reached by Vessels up tho con^i from Sun Pedro. "When tho Southern'Pacitio ca'mo down across tho Tohnchcpi Mountains into this region and wont ou to Now Or leans, tho agricultural interests of Southern California had a boom, and about 2,000" acres of oranges woro planted in Riverside, Pasadena and _'(3auta Barbara. ./When tho Santa Fe built into this region in 188 i and gavo the Golden Statu its first competing railroad, there was a boom in real estato, and especially in orange and lemon growing, that has novor been equaled in any land. Very fo-w people realize tho capital that is invested iu tho orange irtdustry In Southern California. Recently tho aifeodsors, and horticultural inspectors spent several weeks; in gathering sta tistics concerning the business, tfc is found that S-H.SWO.'OOU represents tlio valuo of tho land, trees, irrigation, dams, pipe lines, dYtcbes, anti-frost de vices, tools, implements and packing houses devoted to orange growing in Oil Angeles, San Bernardino, Jtivor- ido, Orango and San Diego countioo alono. At anavorago price of S1.G0 per box for oranges on tho trees in this region, It is seen that tho whole crop is worth to tho growors about $2,500,000. Sev eral thousand acres of young orango grovoe will coma into boaring in throo or four years more, and it is believed that by tho year 1000 tho total annual orango yield of Southorn California Los Angeles (Cal.Jcorr.
