Southern California GEO. C. KNOX ... EDITOR. SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1874. CROP STATISTICS—ONE BENEFIT OF THE GRANGE SYSTEM. Heretofore it has been almost impossible for a journalist to procure accurate and definite statistical information regarding the growing crops of the section in which he might be located. Even when the section was thoroughly canvassed in order to gather these statistics, the natural distribution of people to communicate information concerning their private affairs has interfered to prevent full and comprehensive returns from being made. Under the Grange system, however, these difficulties no longer exist. The object, for which the information is asked, meets with the approval of all, and all feel a full confidence that nothing inimical to the interests of the farmer will be given to the outside world. We present herewith a communication from the Secretary of Fairview Grange which explains itself: "ED. CALIFORNIAN: From a statistical report of the growing crops, compiled at the last meeting of Fairview Grange, it was ascertained that the number of acres sown in eye this season, by the different members of this Grange is about 2,000, and the estimated yield 50,000 bushels; the number of acres sown in barley is about 3,000, estimated yield 100,000 bushels; the number of acres planted in corn is 600, estimated yield, 20,000 bushels. These figures are confined to the crops of the members of the Grange. Over one-third of the farmers in the vicinity of Anaheim are not members of the Grange. Taking the figures given above as a basis to calculate the crops of those not members, and we have about two hundred and fifty thousand bushels of grain as the estimated yield of the coming harvest, produced in the immediate vicinity of Anaheim. Allowing similar amounts to be produced within the jurisdiction of each of the three other Granges, Westminster, Orange and Fruitland, and we have a million of bushels." LETTER FROM OSS.

TOWN OF "SANTA ANA," CASTLE April 16th, Editor Southern Californian: You asked me to jot you down line from this thriving little Well, the fact is I am so much love with the whole of South California that I cannot refrain doing your bidding. First, tha am indebted to your townsman R. Lafaucherie of the Planters' of Anaheim, for introducing me day before yesterday, to this licious valley and to the spot which I am writing; for behi spanking pair of brown mare came here in double-quick time caught the first view of this objection spot. "WHO LAID OUT THE TOWN?" Was the first conundrum propelled upon my arrival. Well, it none other than Mr. William Spurgeon, a 22nd cousin of the London preacher, whom he much resembles about the white eye. He is Postmaster, Skeeper, Mayor, Alderman, Maid and in company with his bride Granville, keeps up a large menial establishment, where you purchase anything from a daisy needle to a Chicago Ham. I took a peep at the customer... We would be much pleased to receive communications of a like nature from Westminster, Orange, and Fruitland Granges, in order that we may, through the medium of our paper, make this information general to those to whom it may be a matter of interest. We would, therefore, call their attention to the subject, and ask from them an early action. A QUERY. Work has been again commenced on the Southern Pacific in the neighborhood of Delano, and it is rumored that active operations will soon be inaugurated to push the section between Los Angeles and Mission San Fernando, northward. A great deal of talk has been indulged in lately, about the railway between Los Angeles and Cerro Gordo, chartered by the last Legislature, and judging from the tenor of newspaper articles, published in the Los Angeles journals, it will be but a very short time before ground will be broken on this new enterprise. There is one feature, however, about this Cerro Gordo railroad, that we do not exactly comprehend. Cerro Gordo will be the northern terminus of the contemplated railway; judging from the name of the incorporation in the absence of any better information, Los Angeles will be at the southern end. Now accepting the assertions of Los Angeles people as correct, there is only one route feasible, over which a railway can be constructed northwards from Los Angeles, and that is via the San Fernando and Soledad Passer. We understand that this route has been adopted as the line of the Southern Pacific railway; the question naturally arises, therefore, will the Directors of the Los Angeles and Cerro Gordo Company construct a parallel track alongside of the Southern Pacific railway, or will this road be nothing more than a feeder to the Southern Pacific, with an actual southern terminus somewhere in the neighborhood of Tehachape Pass? In either event, we do not see wherein the speculation can be made profitable to the stockholders of the contemplated railway, and it may be barely possible that Los Angeles city will not be greatly benefited. There are no amelting works nor quartz mills in the neighborhood of Los Angeles; none other than Mr. William Spurgeon, a 22nd cousin of the London preacher, whom he much resembles about the white eye. He is Postmaster, Skeeper, Mayor, Alderman, Man and in company with his brother Granville, keeps up a large metal tile establishment, where you purchase anything from a daisy needle to a Chicago Ham. He took a peep at the customers what the store contains. Here are two such sweet looking gals by ribbons,and a man from Tustin buying 6 sacks of flour. Lies around loose were blankets, guns, soap, clothing, sugar, tea fee, baskets, tin ware, treacle fumery, books, stationery,a co the Danbury News and Altaifornia, rat traps, boots, garden implements, onious,pot pickles. blacking,pins,needle yellow soap. Great big teal door filled with hides and reminds me more of a mining store in the days of '49 and '50 anything else. Mr. Spurgeon out this town in 1870,buy acres for about $500. And little bit about its surrounding people who are here. To the south-west lies "Swamp," named from the fact several missionaries came out "round the Horn," or "in a place above." viz. Richland,north-east and distant 3½ All these places are flourishing doing well,and when you that 4 or 5 years ago it was a howling wilderness,who say is not a progressive age,aue the Yankee is not the greatest in all creation! HERE IS A SCHOOL HOUSE With N. O. Stafford,a w farmer from Vermont,whom in Sacramento in 1788.Ho i School Trustee,has married oond time,has a young and blo family of fledglings,and his ing wife,today.as we came the road,fired and killed at tance of 150 yards.a rabbit. Southern Pacific railway; the question naturally arises, therefore, will the Directors of the Los Angeles and Cerro Gordo Company construct a parallel track alongside of the Southern Pacific railway, or will this road be nothing more than a feeder to the Southern Pacific, with an actual southern terminus somewhere in the neighborhood of Tehachape Pass? In either event, we do not see wherein the speculation can be made profitable to the stockholders of the contemplated railway, and it may be barely possible that Los Angeles city will not be greatly benefitted. There are no amelting works nor quartz mills in the neighborhood of Los Angeles, and consequently crude ore must find its way eventually to San Francisco. Let us examine this subject, therefore, from the stand point of a Cerro Gordo mine owner: from Cerro Gordo via the northern arm of the Southern Pacific to San Francisco, where there is every appliance to reduce ore, there will be one unbroken line of rail, and at San Francisco is located a branch of the U.S. Mint, where the refined ore will meet a ready market; from Cerro Gordo via the southern arm of the Southern Pacific, Los Angeles and Wilmington, to San Francisco, freight must be reshipped from rail to ship-board at Wilmington and from vessel to wagon at San Francisco, besides being carried the entire distance from the junction of the Cerro Gordo and Southern Pacific road to Los Angeles out of the way. Which route would a Cerro Gordo miner select? Now comes our query. What is the object of these public meetings, which are called in Los Angeles. Los Angeles merchants cannot compete with those of San Francisco. Money goes begging in San Francisco at eight per cent. per annum; in Los Angeles it commands one and one-half and two per cent. per month. Los Angeles has no smelting works, no quartz mills and no Mint. The Cerro Gordo railway may be profitable to the individual stockholder, but we are of the opinion to convince the man of capital of that fact. It is necessary to show him the engineer’s estimate of its cost of construction, and to show him the amount of tonage, which necessarily must find an outlet and an inlet over the line. With these facts satisfactorily demonstrated, San Francisco capital, demanding eight per cent. per annum interest, may be induced to invest; on the other hand it would require a line of road, presenting extraordinary natural advantages, and most completely isolated, which would yield at the outset an annual return of 24 per cent. on the original outlay. HERE IS A SCHOOL HOUSE With N. O. Stafford, a well farmer from Vermont, whom he in Sacramento in 1788. He is School Trustee, has married once time, has a young and bloody family of fledglings, and his cing wife, to-day, as we came the road, fired and killed at a distance of 150 yards, a rabbit, is being cooked now for Mrs. Stafford is considered the female shot in this country. same school house four different ligious persuasions meet, and by any chance quarrel! Just of it! Four entirely different of going to heaven, and all one roof. A Catholic Presbyterian Methodist, Baptist, Unitarian Jewish Synagogue are about erected, and Mr. Spurgeon hated a magnificent peice of life for a PUBLIC SQUARE On the north side of which fronting on Fourth Street, artesian well 350 feet deep, is the most delicious water all the A. W. Birch, Esq., another farmer, has also succeeded in ting a fine flow of artesian water another part of this flour township. Captain Abbott coossfully farming here; while of wheat and barley, are flowing all around. N. O. Stafford acres in splendid cultivation store of Messrs. Frankel B. from Bavaria, is one of the features of the town. The Public Square, and do I. C. Hickey has just commenced erecting a livery and feed stable, and the inevitable blacksmith's shop, with swinging sign, looks cheery and homelike. A. W. English, from Watsonville, keeps the Hotel—when it is open. As the case stands now, every citizen keeps one in his own house. This speaks volumes for the prosperity of the village. Mr. Palmer, well known in Santa Clara, whose ranch there joined the celebrated Millionaire Col. McLaughlin has settled here, and bought 700 acres of the MOTT TRACT Of land, intending to put in 300 acres in corn and beans. He "acknowledged the corn" to be good. Mr. Roper, Mr. Cole, and Mr. Seavers, all from Santa Clara, have taken up their abode here. The Semi-Tropic Water Company are extending their ditches to Santa Ana and Tustin City. The contracts have recently been let for their construction. This will be a great benefit to the entire valley. It is not generally known that a stago passes through this town daily from San Diego to Los Angeles. NEWPORT: Yes Sir! and a fashionable place it will be yet. For only 8 miles from this embryo city is the harbor of Newport, at the mouth of the Santa Ana river, where there is a wharf and warehouse all ready to be used for storage. Here then is an opening for some enterprises. P. S. I wish my esteemed friend Major J. K. Snyder of Sonoma valley, to know that a ball is being erected here (Santa Ana) by Messrs Dunlap and Maxwell for the Grangers or Patrons of Husbandry, and will be ready for their occupancy in a few weeks. P. S. I am grieved to hear that the Prince of "Jehus" and good fellows generally, Charlie Wright, after making a small fortune by stage driving, is going to throw up the ribbons and retire on his ranch, be owning a superb plantation of 1750 acres, where under his own vine and fig tree he can enjoy his "otium cum dig" to his heart's content. He and his factotum, William E. Cullen are the finest "whips" out, and Uncle William will have it all his own way now. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. LADIES! IF YOU WISH A HAT FOR MAY day, go to MRS.

For only 8 miles from this embryo city is the harbor of Newport, at the mouth of the Santa Ana river, where there is a wharf and warehouse all ready to be used for storage. Here then is an opening for some enterprising capitalist to start a lumber yard, when the entire valley can be supplied, as the roads are good and free from sand. Here also the products of the valley may be shipped cheaper than at other points. The agricultural resources of this beautiful valley are really very great. Wheat, barley, and corn fields flourish in the greatest luxuriance, and pumpkins actually grow to the size of 228 pounds! Thousands of bales of wool and tens of thousands of hides leave this locality annually, and it actually seems to me while I am writing you this basty screed, that the place is moving on with giant strides! OH! THE WONDERFUL FUTURE In store for this blessed land—and people! for of this superb climate, balmy atmosphere, gorgeous magnificent and matchless scenery, and kind hearted, generous people, I could write forever. Only be patient and wait a little! All you want is population. Oh! you of the East, who are pinched with the winter's cold, or buried for six months of the year in the "Beautiful Snow," or sweltering in the summer's boat, are crying out for a breath of fresh air, come, one and all, to this God's own land, where there are no extremes of cold or heat, and where the delicious souls stirring and invigorating breezes, give you new life, and fill you with hope, and the most delightful emotions.
