TOBACCO CULTURE
We have translated the following article from La Cronica, of Los Angeles, believing that its interest to our readers would compensate us for the mental agony endured during the process of translation:
ORANGE, California,
February 19th, 1875.
Senior Editor of La Cronica.
DEAR SIR—Having promised you the details of my trial in the planting of tobacco in this county, I will now fulfill my promise, although it has not rained, but if I wait for rain, I believe I would not write until next year. On arriving at Orange, I took the best care to choose a soil entirely free from clay or alkali; in fifty acres I chose ten acres of land mixed in its total of sediments, and in which had been sowed only one crop of barley. This land offered me the best conditions for my plantation, and in reality I could not have desired better. In March I made my nursery as follows:
1st, Seed of Havana and Connecticut; bought of Dr. Howard, of Los Angeles.
2nd, Seed of Havana and Connecticut; bought of Sweezy & Co., of San Francisco.
3rd, Seed of Havana, Connecticut and Latakla; bought of E. Moore, of San Francisco.
4th, Seed of Havana, Connecticut

This land had been plowed three times and irrigated before the transplanting. In August I irrigated three acres and transplanted 10,000 plants more, which at the end of November were matured.
In the month of July large green worms fell over the plantation and devoured all the best leaves of the plants in less than three days, notwithstanding the efforts of my China-men, who did all they could to destroy them.
I will not enter into the details of drying the tobacco. All the processes are alike, with some modifications according to the taste of the operator. Not being in favor of drying the tobacco in the sun, I dried mine in sheds constructed for the purpose. The operation of curing tobacco consists in putting it up in piles three feet high and six or seven feet in length and it is there left more or less time according to the color required. For example: 1st, for a clear color—throw open the piles and dry the tobacco, when it begins to take a yellow color. 2nd, for a dark color such as for the wrapper of cigars—wait until the tobacco takes a brown color and presents (in color) the appearance of a cooked apple. To the unaccustomed the tobacco looks as if spoiled. Afterwards put it to dry which is finished in less conditions for my plantation, and in reality I could not have desired better. In March I made my nursery as follows:
1st, Seed of Havana and Connecticut, bought of Dr. Howard, of Los Angeles.
2nd, Seed of Havana and Connecticut, bought of Sweezy & Co., of San Francisco.
3rd, Seed of Havana, Connecticut and Latakia, bought of E. Moore, of San Francisco.
4th, Seed of Havana, Connecticut and James River, bought of Sevin, Vincent & Co.
5th, Seed of Havana, bought of S. Clark, of Anaheim.
Of the No. 1, not a single grain sprouted. The seed was absolutely worthless. Nos. 2, 3 and 4 sprouted and produced a species of tobacco without name; wild, full of sprouts; all the classes looked like Havana, Latakia, Connecticut and James River. They offered no difference and resembled a plantation of cabbages. The No. 5 sprouting gave me beautiful plants; transplanting in May; I gathered sonic 30,000 plants which had grown from the 15th of August to the 15th of September, 14 and 13 inches in length and 9 inches in breadth. More could not be asked.

When my tobacco was ready, I went directly to San Francisco. There fell to the ground the greatest of my illusions. In less than two days, I acquired the proof that I had lost my time, and, what is worse, my money without hopes of saving anything. I had sacrificed my all to produce an article which no one wanted and was valueless. I am going to repeat to you what was said to me that you may comprehend better the position in which I found myself.
I took a list of nearly ten manufacturers of cigars and tobacco. Went to see No. 1 and offered my tobacco with samples. "Where did your tobacco come from?" he asked me. The County of Los Angeles." "It looks pretty but — is California tobacco." Certainly; but it has been raised from Havana seed." "That makes no difference; we do not want it." Nos. 2, 3 and 4 gave me the same answer. Of No. 5 I asked, why they did not want it; and they answered me that the tobacco of California was worth nothing; that it was bitter and the cigars made from it were of a detestable flavor, whether the seed was Maryland, Havana or any other." But at last I said to him, "What do you think of the tobacco that is produced in Oilroy?" "It is one of the best prepared," he said. "But for all that it is, California tobacco; I do not believe any manufacturer has bought one hundred pounds; it does no good but to spoil putting it up in piles three feet high and six or seven feet in length and it is there left more or less time according to the color required. For example: 1st, for a clear color—throw open the piles and dry the tobacco, when it begins to take a yellow color. 2nd, for a dark color such as for the wrapper of cigars—wait until the tobacco takes a brown color and presents (in color) the appearance of a cooked apple. To the unaccustomed the tobacco looks as if spoiled. Afterwards put it to dry which is finished in less than ten days. 3d, put it again in piles after having arranged it in packages of seven or eight leaves; in this state it remains a month or less in fermentation. There is no rule for this; only experience can indicate the time it must stay so. This is the most difficult part of the operation. Afterwards it is put into bales;

In the following issue of Los Angeles interest to our small us for the aid during the procalifornia, January 18th, 1874, France.

the other tobacco with which it is mixed."
With a persistence worthy of a better cause I went to all the other manufacturers who gave me the same answers with some variations; but the result was not one of them wanted California tobacco. One alone told me; if I asked three or four cents it might induce reflection To the Chinese manufacturers I sold three or four hundred pounds which was all.
Of the retail merchants I made inquiries for Gilroy cigars They informed me they had kept them but now had none; that no one wanted them; that they were bad and they could not sell them.
My fortune was determined Prejudice or reality; there is no market for California tobacco I am not a good judge; my tobacco appears to me delicious All the manufacturers told me it was well prepared; but it had the same flavor as the rest of the tobacco raised in this country I repeat that I am partial; all parents are so toward their children.
It is significant that good tobacco cannot be obtained in California; and it is necessary to renounce the cultivation this plant It think there is a prejudice against tobacco raised in this country I think the prejudice is based on this fact:
That there has been sent to and sold in San Francisco; tobacco raised on salty lands; fat or alkaline soil; dried in the sun; and it has been found bitter This is not strange; for all plants the tobacco is one of the easiest to take the flavor of the earth There are wines which take the bitter flavor of finity land and tobacco is the same But tobacco raised in a light sandy

Do you ever hear anything from this region and would you care for an occasional note?
It can hardly be called boasting; if one thinks his county or section is of some importance when it is perhaps the objective point more eyes than any other section like extent in the world Words concerning this land may be acceptable; provided the truth told be balanced by other truth; not telling a part and omitting or modifying an unpalatable item.
It would be folly to claim for this region all the virtues and none of the pieces other localities Too many eastern people make no allowance for an entire change of season—and add to their own beautiful weather all that this climate possesses comfort These are disappointed when they find here an occasional rain or frost The advantages we do possess In the way climate etc., are certainly marketable especially during the present winter where everywhere in the East the mercury evades inspection by dropping below any point possible measurement.
Other places on this coast are highly praised; but so far as we are able to learn we are in the most desirable place on all.

Afterwards is finished in less cannot be obtained in California, and it is necessary to renounce the cultivation of this plant. I think there is a prejudice against tobacco raised in this country. I think the prejudice is based on this fact:
That there has been sent to and sold in San Francisco, tobacco raised on salty lands, fat or alkaline soil, dried in the sun, and it has been found bitter. This is not strange, for all plants the tobacco is one of the easiest to take the flavor of the earth. There are spikes which take the bitter flavor of fifty land and tobacco is the same.
But tobacco raised in a light sandy soil cannot have a bad flavor. Time and experience may make better judges of the manufacturers of San Francisco, but while others make the trial I will retire.
Here are the details of expense per acre.
Cultivation $4 50
Rent of land $5 00
Irrigation 1 20
Planting 6 00
Nursery 3 00
Gathering, drying, baling, etc. 60 00
Sacking 1 50
Total $81 20
You see I do not count the seeds. This I leave to one side, as they will vary according to the class.
One acre will give here 1,050 pounds of Havana and 1,400 of Virginia, counting two crops; you cannot expect more.
The construction of the buildings is cheap in this country; a shelter against the sun is enough, as the rains do not come until all is dry. The error I made was too great expense on this point. Above I have given the expense of a plantation of tobacco. I will add that for a farmer who does nothing else, two men can cultivate four acres of tobacco. Now you see that if there was a market for the product the business would be very lucrative.
I think I have told you all I have to tell about the tobacco, and if I have forgotten any of the details which will interest you, inform me and I will give you the information.
This letter is very long and I am not accustomed to writing so much. Perhaps I have forgotten many things.
Receive a grip from the hand of your affectionate C.W.
P.S. Reading anew my letter I see I have forgotten to express my wonder at the Press. In all the newspapers I have read articles laudatory of the cultivation of tobacco and the truly grand results which have been obtained in Gilroy. This company has been in existence two years. How is it that they have not perceived the first year that they could not sell their tobacco in this country, and to send it East would not pay expenses? You, dear editor, who are in the secret, can you tell me why the newspaper, after they have published the marvelous results of Gilroy, thus inducing many farmers to commence the cultivation of tobacco, do they not publish that this company made a complete failure for the want of a market for their products; and give the alarm to the poor working devils who, without that go and sacrifice their an occasional gain or frost. The advantages we do possess, in the way of climate, etc., are certainly marketable, especially during the present winter; where everywhere in the East the mercury evades inspection by dropping below any point of possible measurement.
Other places on this coast are highly praised, but so far as we are able to learn we are in the most desirable place of all.
One's conclusions will be materially altered by a change of purpose. He who comes to Southern California to do nothing, and get rich, will be disappointed everywhere. He who comes here expecting to find a New York or Chicago waiting to greet him, will look in vain for brown-stone fronts and other things to match. He who comes to prosecute farming; grazing or fruit raising; or who designs to enter commercial life, will be drawn to differing localities. But whoever comes for health, for comfort; for recuperation, and can remember that laws of health are quite as blinding here as East may come to Anaheim. We do not boast of size, business importance, or distant reputation as can some other cities. We certainly have room to grow — we occupy an important business center—and if we were known according to our deserts we would hold a place quite as high as towns more extensively advertised. We have two hotels, and eastern capital proposing two more on a large scale; one of which is to cost $75,000. So we shall be able soon to accommodate all the sojourners for health, comfort and observation, who may please to come.
As a health resort, Anaheim is safe, by those who have tried the other towns, to be the most desirable point in this part of the State. We are not exposed to strong winds and troublesome fogs, as other towns are. We are not on the beach, nor at the foot hills, but lie where the valley widens to thirty miles; we are fifteen miles from the ocean, and a like distance from the mountains. The sea breeze becomes tempered before reaching us, and passes us unhindered by fog condensing hills. Beside this our soil is of such a sandy or loamy character that we have no muddy weather, no decay of vegetable matter, causing mlasma. Our irrigation cannot do us harm in the manner it injures other places. We are free from the agues, fevers and rheumatism, which they are already harrassed with.
We are a farming community. The future fruit crop of all this valley is certain to be immense. The product of Anaheim is mostly wine. The grapes which grow here so abundantly and to such perfection are transformed into various brands of this tempting liquor, and for each kind a large portion of alcohol is distilled. So what might be a harmless and healthful beverage, if kept unfermented, is, by this willful addition of from thirty to forty degrees of alcohol, changed to anything but a blessing.
Our church is looking up in both a spiritual and material sense. We hope to obtain a strong hold upon the community, so as to secure a wide-spread

"Your young friend stayed uncom- monly late last night, and I was inclined to come into the parlor and dismiss him," said an indulgent father to his pet of sixteen. "Oh! yes it" was pretty late; but we got so interested in discussing ritualism that we did not notice the fleeting hours, papa." Discussing ritualism?" sternly queried the father, and then he walked slowly away, with his hands under his coat skirts, trying to remember what they called it when he was young."
"Why don't you hold up your head in the world as I do?" asked a haughty lawyer of a sterling old farmer. "Squire," replied the farmer, "see that field of grain. The well-filled heads hang down, while those only that see empty stand upright."
