ORANGE COUNTY. An Interesting Descriptive Account of the Gem County by a Traveling Newspaper Man. While Orange is the smallest of the cluster of seven counties which constitute Southern California, its resources are great, there being practically no waste territory within its borders, and a very large area being subject to intensive cultivation. To enumerate a few of its products, taking the last figures compiled, those for 1897; the following figures of tonnage of shipments from the county can be given: Citrus fruits, 6772; dried fruits, 293; raisins, 304; nuts, 941; canned fruits, 29; total, 7339 tons. There was shipped, in addition to the fruits, 2231 tons of vegetables. But all this takes no account of the 6000 acres of sugar beets grown nor of the great flocks of sheep, nor of a half dozen other industries which contribute their quota to the general prosperity of the people of the county. The 780 square miles constituting Orange county possess great diversity of soil, while the topography of the county contributes to the segregation of the industries. One feature of the climatic conditions, however, is due to the distance from high mountains. It has been shown that frosts find their genesis in the mountains and flow down the channels of the rivers, thus making comparatively exempt from damage any fruit growing at a relatively high elevation from the streams. It has also been ascertained that it takes more than twenty-four hours for the currents of air from the mountains to reach the fruit country of Orange county, thus insuring that such currents will always be subjected to the rays of the sun during a whole day, before reaching this section. While this cannot be claimed to make frost impossible in all cases, it does reduce the damage to the minimum, and makes it possible to grow fruit on land of a relatively low altitude, that would be unsuited for the same fruit nearer the mountains. Despite this comparative exemption, the better citrus-fruit land of the county is that of the comparatively elevated portions, and following this fact, Fullerton and Placentia have come to the front in recent years as heavy producers of the orange and lemon, while the acreage and the age of the trees is such as to give assurance of a rapid increase in production. The older sections about Santa Ana, Orange and Tustin, however, have made great improvements in the quality of their oranges in the past few years, in exercising greater care with their trees than was known a dozen years and to the satisfaction of the entire public, having proven economical and efficient. Fullerton and Placentia are neighboring localities in the northern part of the county, the former serving as the trading center for both places. These are essentially horticultural communities, the orchard, templet and walnut being the principal articles of production. An air of thrift and general content prevails. The business quarter of Fullerton is active and the residences throughout the section are neat and attractive. Near by are extensive oil fields partially developed. The oil is hauled to Fullerton by team and shipped by cars. Los Alamitos has become of great importance to the county during the past two years, on account of the erection of an important sugar factory at that point, which consumes a large portion of the beetles of the county and expects to make a greater record than that yet scored. It was first operated in 1897 when it turned out 3500 tons of sugar. The partial failure of the beet crop in the year just closed will greatly reduce the output from what was expected, though future years will undoubtedly witness a large production. The name Olive is scarceely indicative of the town which has gained considerable importance for its flour mill, that being its chief industry. The mill furnishes a market for the grain grown in the county, and the flour is sold throughout Southern California, where there is a scarcity of mills. Buena Park, which lies on the line between Orange and Los Angeles counties, is the center of a dairy business of great importance. This is one of the leading and most promising industries of the county, the great possibilities in the way of growing alfalfa hay adapting a large area especially to the making of butter and cheese, and the preparation of condensed milk, at the only factory of the kind in Southern California. Garden Grove, Westminster, Bolsa and Newport are settlements each of a few hundred inhabitants, but possessing considerable importance as agricultural centers as well as in the production of vegetables. Newport Beach and Santa Ana are connected by the Santa Ana and Newport Railroad, and is a point of considerable importance for the trans-shipment of lumber from vessels to cars. It is only port on the coast of Orange county. In the southern part of the county El Toro, San Juan and Capistrano are small settlements dating from the old mission period, the rains of the old mission at Capistrano, but a few feet from the railroad, telling the whole story of the development of the State at a glance. About these points cluster a few orchards, while a great area is devoted to grain growing and cattle raising. The northern part of Orange county is thus an index to the future, while pounds of honey each, and only more than 2,000,000. Now Iowa duces nearly 9,000,000 pounds andinois, California, Missouri and York, in the order named, pro above 4,000,000 pounds. The agricultural reports show the increased honey product to be steadily cooking, and the product to be sufficient home consumption and to leave anance for export. One State in New York has no monopoly of it; strong competitor; well situated purposes of foreign exportation Texas; and still another is Ohio. The honey product of New York considerable in amount and incurs and facilities for its shipment course excellent. One difficulty with which American dealers in honey have had in mind to meet has been the interior edge which many of them have apiary culture as a separate sale farm matters. They have taken raising as an incident of agriculture with the result that until a few ago the average production of honey he hive was about one-half as much United States as in those countries in which she culture is carried out entitly. With greater family with the matter, a larger fund for general knowledge and use of materials and progressive methods American bee culturists have been ahead rapidly of late years they now rank with those of countries in which she bees has been almost a matter definite, and their excellence in thisicular is shown by the very increase which there has been American product of honey. How to Prevent Pneumonia. You are perhaps aware that pneumonia always results from a cold or an attack of la gripe. During epidemic of la gripe a few years when so many cases resulted in monia, it was observed that there was never followed by that disease Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was it counteracts any tendency of la gripe to result in that dame disease. It is best remedy world for a bad cold and la gipe Every bottle warranted. For some P.A. Derge. The New Counties SACRAMENTO. Feb. 5.- Srent's bill providing for the creation of new counties provides that new county shall be created if its motion will reduce the old population to less than 8000 or more. The walnut industry covers much the same territory as that of citrus fruits in this county, though the former trees prosper better on lower land than on that adapted to the orange and lemon. There are about five hundred acres of olive trees in the county, which are approaching the producing age, or have already passed that point, and deciduous fruits are grown more or less extensively in all parts of the county. The growing of winter vegetables for the eastern trade has for a number of years been conducted on a considerable scale, but barring asparagus and celery, there is little disposition to increase the output, on account of the high freight rates. Celery especially has been an increasing product of the country, the annual shipments running into the hundreds of carloads. For this and kindred crops there are thousands of acres of the best soil to be found on the low sections of the county. The growing of sugar beets for the factories at Los Alamitos and Chino promises to develop into a great industry, the sugar percentage of the product of this section running very high, averaging over 18 per cent. While the output of the past year has fallen off on account of the light rains of last winter, it is believed the production will considerably increase over that of the previous year, when the highest record was scored. There are vast tracts of land in the county well adapted to this crop, and which can be bought or rented at a fair price. In Orange county is to be seen the rather unusual sight of general farming, conducted on the eastern plan. The general custom in California is for the tillers of the soil to make a specialty of one or two varieties of products, buying everything else that they may need for the supply of their households. The low lands of Orange county, where there is natural sub-irrigation, are especially adapted to this business. There corn, wheat, barley, alfalfa, cattle, poultry, hogs and fruit can be raised upon a small tract of land with great profit. The water supply of the county is unlimited, and in cases the water is so abundant that a system of drainage has been found desirable. The supply of water must even tend to increase from year to year without effort on the part of the people, for the water used in the counties lying near the mountains, and in many cases brought from underground channels, at last finds its way into the regular channels and is brought into this county. There is a vast store of water but a few feet underground, however, which can be developed in case of need, with little labor. A great obstacle to the dense population of the county is the immense San Joaquin rancho. It contains 108.- Another Profitable Field for American Agricultural Industry. The exports of American honey to foreign countries, which were of the value of $22,000 for the fiscal year ending July 1, 1897, amounted to $100,000 or four times as much, for the fiscal year ending July 1, 1898, and there is a steady increase in the business done in this article of commerce, which heretofore has been generally in the form of imports into the United States of honey from foreign countries. In the fiscal year of 1897 the amount of honey imported into this country was twice as great as the amount exported, but from present indications the disparity will hereafter be on the other side. From a report recently published in England, it appears that the present home supply of English honey is inadequate. Every year the English have to import 2,250,000 pounds, of which the declared value is $150,000. Among the countries engaged in supplying their markets with this product the principal ones are the United States, Chill, and Pern. No statistics of the quantity of the honey produced in the United Kingdom are obtainable, though every other country of Europe has figures on these points. France produces in a year 7,000 tons of honey, which is equivalent to 14,000,000 pounds, and a considerable amount of honey used in England is imported from Ireland, but how much is not known, as it does not enter into the foreign commerce. The American facilities for furnishing not only England but other countries as well with honey are great and increasing. Thirty years ago the product of American honey was 15,000,000 pounds for all the States. Twenty years ago the product was 25,000,000 pounds, and ten years ago it has risen to 65,000,000 pounds. There has been a wonderful advancement in the honey produced during the past ten years. In 1879 only twelve States produced more than a million When so many cases resulted in monia, it was observed that there was never followed by that disease Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was it counteracts any tendency of la gripe to result in that disease.

There is a vast store of water but a few feet underground, however, which can be developed in case of need, with little labor. A great obstacle to the dense population of the county is the immense San Joaquin rancho. It contains 108,000 acres of the best land in the county, and tends to make the map of the central part of the county appear like that of a dense wilderness. It is owned by James Irvine, and for years has been a grain field and cattle range, though the tendency is now to devote a large part of the tract to beet-growing, and the land is rented for that purpose. During the past year it has been used in part as pasture land for an immense herd of cattle, so numerous that for nearly an hour a train is passing them, though they graze together in a dense mass. Santa Ana is the principal town and the county seat. It lies near the center of the county, is a compactly built and prosperous city of 5000 people, having extensive trade relations with all parts of the county, and bearing the general characteristics of a small metropolis. The business quarter is surrounded with dense orchards which extend into the country in every direction for some miles. Oranges and walnuts are the chief articles of production of this immediate neighborhood. Three miles north of Santa Ana is the town of Orange, containing about twenty-five hundred people, and having its own trading center, which is a scene of considerable life and activity. Orange is the point of junction of the lines of the Santa Fe railroad leading to Los Angeles, San Diego and Riverside. It is a fruit-producing section of importance. Anaheim is a prosperous German colony, built in the solid manner characteristic of the people, with extensive agricultural rather than horticultural surroundings. The city has an uncommonly fine electric light and power plant, operated in connection with a first-class domestic water system, the city setting the pace in Southern California for the ownership of public utilities by the people. The conduct of these utilities has been without friction The country woman is usually healthy and robust. If she isn't it generally because of her own ignorance or neglect. She is a hard working woman but her surroundings are healthy, and unless she has some local weakness, she bears her heavy burden without serious inconvenience. The trouble with too many country women is that they do not sufficiently realize the supreme importance of keeping healthy in a womanly way. A woman's general health cannot be good if she suffers from local weakness and disease. If she suffers in this way, the strongest woman will soon break down and become a weak, sickly, nervous, complaining invalid.

London has suddenly found itself in possession of a cheap and inexhaustible supply of pure water, the existence of which it had never suspected. Walter Mosely, the engineer of the London County Council, has informed that body that underneath London is an immense lake of pure cold water, in a chalk basin 2506 square miles in extent and 100 feet below the surface of the ground. The annual rainfall that sinks below to the lake is at least 280,000 million gallons, which would give a daily yield of 2005 million gallons. It is believed that the discovery of this lake will forever put an end to the old vexed question of London's water supply. It is only necessary to sink a sufficient number of deep wells in order to obtain all the water necessary. An artesian well has already been sunk to this lake at Clapham, near London, and is producing a daily yield of a million gallons. It seems strange that London should have existed for more than 2000 years and never discovered that there was a great lake beneath it. The discovery of this lake brings a solution to a question which has been distressing London terribly of late. The greatest city in the world has a very inadequate water supply. It is furnished by certain private companies, conspicuous among which is the New River Company, which was organized in the reign of James I, about 1000 years ago. These companies charge exorbitant rates and give a very poor supply. A fourth of a share in the New River company is worth about $20,000. The water companies have hitherto exerted tremendous influence through their shareholders in Parliament, but the new and democratic county council has put a wholesome fear into them. It now seems that their last hour has come. Last year the vast east end of London suffered from a water famine, and in consequence there was danger of an outbreak of all kinds of dreadful diseases. Only good luck averted that catastrophe. The county council then decided that it would have to settle the water question once and for all. It planned to carry the water supply to London from the hills on the border of Wales, about 200 miles away. This would have been the greatest engineering undertaking of its kind in the world and would have cost more than $100,000,000. Now comes the announcement that an inexhaustible reservoir has been found but 1000 feet beneath London. The county council will soon sink its wells and there will be little expense in the undertaking. STATE OF OHIO, CITY-OF TOLEDO, LUCAS COUNTY. Frank J.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the only thing that has done any good whatever. I have used one 50-cent bottle and the chills, cold and grip have all left me. I congratulate the manufacturers of an honest medicine." For sale by P. A. Derge. VISITING A SHRINE. Lieutenant Rawlinson's Daring Entry Into the Sacred City of Kum. Kum, a walled city of Persia, ranks second to Meshed in sanctity, on account of the famous shrine of Masuma Fatima, sister of the Inam Riza, a famous saint of the Mohammedans. While Lieutenant Rawlinson was on his way to Teheran he heard much of this sacred city and the glories of the shrine, which it was said, no European had ever entered. Death, so rumor whispered, would be the portion of the audacious infidel who should be discovered within its precincts. To a young and ardent spirit a dangerous adventure is an irresistible attraction... Lieutenant Rawlinson's Daring Entry Into the Sacred City of Kum. Kum, a walled city of Persia, ranks second to Meshed in sanctity, on account of the famous shrine of Masuma Fatima, sister of the Imam Riza, a famous saint of the Mohammedans. While Lieutenant Rawlinson was on his way to Teheran he heard much of this sacred city and the glories of the shrine, which it was said, no European had ever entered. Death, so rumor whispered, would be the portion of the audacious infidel who should be discovered within its precincts. To a young and ardent spirit a dangerous adventure is an irresistible attraction. Young Rawlinson determined to visit the shrine. Disguised as a Persian pilgrim, thousands of whom annually journey to the sacred city, he joined the crowd of pilgrims. His knowledge of Persian and of the customs of the country enabled him to pass undetected through the temple gates and to make his way to the tomb of the saint. The guardian gave him the customary form of words and he repeated them. But his curiosity almost caused his detection. Attracted by magnificent suits of steel armor which hung on the walls, he was gazing at them, when suddenly he found that he had turned his back upon the sacred shrine where in the saint was entombed. A thrill of alarm startled him, but the discourtesy, impossible to a "true believer," had not been noticed. If it had been, there would probably have been no further career for the young lieutenant, who subsequently became the decipherer of Assyrian and Babylonian inscriptions and texts, and died the renowned orientalist, Sir Henry Rawlinson.—Youth's Companion. Discovery of the Home of Buddha. Far away on the border of Nepal the home of Guatama Buddha has been discovered. Buddha lived about 500 B.C. and was the son of the rajah of Kapila-vastu. A pillar, inscribed by the Emperor Asoka in the third century B.C., marks the city's site. The ruins are all of brick and are covered with jungle and so extensive that their exploration will require years. The city was destroyed during Buddha's lifetime. It was a mass of ruins in A.D. 410, when the first Buddhist Chinese pilgrim made his way there. The buildings that are now being excavated are older than anything known in India heretofore.—London Letter. Sixty-two Children. A remarkable tale of human fooundity is told by the London Daily News. An Italian peasant woman named Granata, married at 23 years, has borne 62 children. She began with a single daughter, followed by six boys at a birth, then by five more, and these by triplets twice and four at a birth. After this she limited herself, like ordinary women, to single babies and twins, but wound up with another batch of four. Swedish Railways. The first railroad in Sweden was opened in 1855, and the country has now in proportion to its population more railways than any other country in Europe. They are owned partly by the state and partly by private corporations. Sweden has the only railway in the world which passes the polar circle—i.e. the state line from Lulea to Gelilvare, in the Lapland district.
