WEALTH OF ORANGE COUNTY NINE MILLIONS OF PRODUCTS OUTPUT FOR YEAR No County In California Has Such Diversified Products—Towns Show Splendid Growth--Prosperity Reigns Over All—Figures of Wealth Orange county, the smallest in its area of the Southern California counties, in 1908 produced $9,000,000 in wealth, more than half its assessed valuation of $17,562,280, which assessed valuation is $1,000,000 more than was the 1907 assessment. With the exception of $1,487,000 the entire $9,000,000 of wealth produced came from lands irrigated by water taken from the Santa Ana river and Santiago creek, pumping plants and artesian wells. This year 239 pumping plants were operated in this county. Each year the amount of land taken from extensive farming and placed to intensive farming increases. This fact is instanced by the fact that of the 1,511,950 fruit trees in the county 533,000 of them are still too young to bear fruit. Of the 222,250 walnut trees, which this year produced 6,624,575 pounds, worth $994,950, a 15 per cent raise over 1907, 85,250 are not yet in bearing. The Santiago orange growers' association, made up of a large number of Orange county orange and lemon growers, during the season of 1907-1908 handled 120,450 boxes of fruit and distributed $165,728.43 to the growers. The cost of handling the fruit on the cooperative basis was $0.4416 per box, including picking, hauling, packing-house and selling expense. Some idea of the year's varied farm productions may be had from the following figures: Total produce she never lets up in the march. Every month produces homes and sees new families. Eight blocks of residence streets been paved, and several all have been permanently improved asphalt. The city has purchased $9000 sewer farm.

Anaheli hundreds of carloads of oranges The Santiago orange growers' association, made up of a large number of Orange county orange and lemon growers, during the season of 1907-1908 handled 120,450 boxes of fruit and distributed $165,728.43 to the growers. The cost of handling the fruit on the cooperative basis was $0.4416 per box, including picking, hauling, packing-house and selling expense. Some idea of the year's varied farm productions may be had from the following figures: Total production of barley $325,000, other cereals $69,000, hay $393,000, apricots, green $20,000, dried $112,000, cabbage $16,-380, celery $402,896, grapes $81,000, lemons $102,024, olives $37,500, oranges $1,135,130, peaches $98,000, Irish potatoes $330,000, sweet potatoes $50,-000, berries $43,000, tomatoes $57,000, peanuts $37,700, walnuts $994,950, wines and beer $85,000 fish $27,916, dairy products $450,000, live stock $630,000, poultry $99,000, eggs $630,000 honey $30,000, sugar beets $368,000, chile peppers $68,000, green peas $87,-000, green beans $44,800, crude oil $1,487,000. In irrigation projects, the Anaheim Union Water company has finished a big reservoir at Yorba, and this company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company have plans for spending $350,000 in water development in the Santa Ana canyon. A new $550,000 sugar factory is being built two miles south of Santa Ana, and 10,000 acres of beets have been contracted for for delivery next season, opening up for cultivation hundreds of acres that hitherto have been pasture land. The owner of the new factory is the Southern California Sugar Company, the entire capital stock being held by men of Santa Ana. The Los Alamitos sugar factory this year produced 5,600,000 pounds of sugar. Orange county has shipped 9000 tons of beets to the sugar factories at Chino and Oxnard. To the central and western portions of the county the most important advance of the year, aside from the starting of the new sugar factory, is the electric road from Santa Ana to Huntington Beach, now under course of construction. Track has been laid to the new sugar factory site on South Main street, Santa Ana. This winter it will cross into the rich peatlands, giving ranchers transportation facilities. Equally as important to the north end of the county is the building of the electric road into the La Habra valley from Los Nietos, cars beginning to travel in October. Ultimately this line will extend to Yorba and thence up the Santa Ana canyon to Riverside. Both this line and the Santa Ana growers' association, made up of a large number of Orange county orange and lemon growers, during the season of 1907-1908 handled 120,450 boxes of fruit and distributed $165,728.43 to the growers.

Track has been laid to the new sugar factory site on South Main street, Santa Ana. This winter it will cross into the rich peatlands, giving ranchers transportation facilities. Equally as important to the north end of the county is the building of the electric road into the La Habra valley from Los Nietos, cars beginning to travel in October. Ultimately this line will extend to Yorba and thence up the Santa Ana canyon to Riverside. Both this line and the Santa Ana-Huntington Beach lines are Pacific Electric property. The nursery business has grown in importance. Orange county nurseries have more than doubled their stock and have shipped trees into other counties and into Mexico. The Thomson nurseries at Villa Park have made a specialty of eucalyptus, realizing the vast importance of the growing of eucalyptus. Forty men are engaged in taking care of 5,000,000 tiny trees, which will be planted at different places in Southern California this winter. The Santa Ana Easter Lily Company has 250,000 plants set out and will be shipping immune lily bulbs next season. There may have been a financial panic elsewhere, but Orange county never had cause to notice it. Crops were just as good and large as ever—with a few exceptions, apricots and walnuts being larger, and celery and cabbage being smaller—and the prices were normal. The number of homes in the county increased and ranchers continued to build finer homes and buy automobiles just as they did before there was thought of financial distress in other places. Orange county this year decided to have an annual celebration of its wealth of land and productions, and for three days in October it conducted its Carnival of Products, showing in parade form its scores of wealth-making industries and its flowers and beautiful environment. Twenty-five thousand people visited the county during the celebration. Santa Ana, county seat of Orange county, has never had a boom, but number of orders being received by the two tile factories, the price of 40,000 tons of sugar beet season within a radius of seven that town, the planting of beans in the contiguous territory the wonderfully rich return are a guarantee of the future property of Huntington Beach. Fort is being made to incorporate town, so as to be in position for inducements to the Methodist Church South to locate new Southern California county that town. The educational nature of the church has expressed a preference for that town as a location, provided certain concessions made by the Huntington Beach company and the town. Nature has endowed Bay City two fine bays, an incomparable beautiful river and unsurpassed Man, with the judicious expo of $100,000, has given her sturdy worthy any metropolis, and edern improvement and control.

Anaheim ships carloads of oranges, chile has purchased a plaza in the center of the town. has dug an artesian well and will beautify it as a park. Ranchers throughout that district received big prices this year for their sugar beets, celery, potatoes and other farm products. The Los Alamitos sugar company factory this year handled 20,000 tons of sugar beets from an acreage of 2,782 contracted for, and produced 5,600 000 pounds of sugar. The factory employed 170. The ranchers cleared $100 an acre from their beets. The Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company has built a reservoir at Olive designed to hold all the water that can run in during a night, thus doing away with night irrigation. The Olive Milling company this year produced $215,000 worth of flour and meal. A goodly acreage of walnuts and oranges has been set out recently. The biggest and best crop of walnuts ever grown in the San Juan Capistrano mission valley was produced this year. Cattle and sheep raised on the neighboring foothills have all brought big prices. A Los Angeles company is building a club-house at the mission. The town is looking up. Smeltzer as usual is busy during the winter with big celery shipments. About 2000 carloads of celery will leave that vicinity this year, most of it for eastern markets. An increased acreage has been put to winter vegetables and berries at El Modena, that vicinity being a stranger to frost. Over 200 carloads of fruit were shipped from the Hewes ranch alone. Hewes park is being pushed to completion, a beauty spot destined to become famous.

COUNTY NOTES If favorable weather prevails, Orange county will ship between 300 and 500 more carloads of celery than was at first estimated, and each carload is worth $480. The celery is turning out in good shape; nearly all of it cut being excellent for shipping purposes. The growers of this county shipped 101 carloads in November, and December's total came up to 500. There will remain some 1500 carloads still to be moved. Estimates early in the season placed the output at not over 1700 or 1800 carloads. The present high prices for celery seems certain to prevail until the end of the season in March. Clyde Taylor is in the County Jall charged by his brother, Perry Taylor, with petty larceny. Clyde is accused of stealing an overcoat, a razor, a shotgun and a quantity of clothing from his brother's house.

The prisoner admits riding away in the wagon, but says it was stolen by two hoboes, who hitched a gray horse to it and drove to Chicago, where the outfit was sold to a Mexican for $10. In case Taylor is not convicted here he will be taken to Los Angeles, where charges of petty larceny and of defrauding garages have been made against him. Mrs. Minnie Havens of El Toro has been cited to appear in the Superior Court on January 7 to show cause why she should not be deprived of the custody of her daughter, and have her alimony reduced from $15 a month to $7.50. The petition for a citation states that Mrs. Havens has been living with Charles W. Swartz at El Toro, and that Swartz is a hard drinker, and uses profane language. Mabel Havens ran away from her mother and went to her grandfather, A. L. Havens of Orange, who asks to be given the custody of the child. Myrtil C. Havens was divorced from Mrs. Havens in June.
