IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain The Only Authentic History In Print of the Daily Doing of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 Years Ago FEBRUARY 6, 1886 The meeting of citizens last Saturday evening was fairly well attended. Mr. Clark, secretary of the Southern California Immigration Association, addressed the meeting at length and gave solid reasons why the association should receive the hearty support of the people, Messrs. Haight, Pierce and Pellegrin were appointed a committee to canvas for membership in the association. The committee was also requested to request from Anaheim Immigration Association 1500, of their pamphlets, to be given to Mr. Clark for distribution where they would do the most good. An encouraging word was spoken by Mr. Hixon of San Francisco, who said, he knew from his travels in the states that the great mass of the people knew nothing whatever about California, and that if they did know what a land of milk and honey and things it really was, they would flock here in great numbers. It was announced that the following gentlemen had been appointed a committee to canvass for subscriptions to the park and pavilion fund: Zeyn, Kroeger, A. Rimpau, Melrose, L. Parker. More than half a century ago a party of prospectors found a coal mine in one of the small canyons leading from the Santiago canyon. We have another enterprise to chronicle this week. It has been decided by Capt. A. S. Ferguson and George Bessonetti to build a two-story brick building, 40 x 100 feet on the lot opposite the post-office adjoining and communicating with the brick portion of the Planters hotel. The first flour will be used for business purposes, and in the upper story will be a public hall. The building will be begun as soon as all danger of wet weather is over. We doff our beaver to the enterprising gentlemen and hope that their example will be followed by other property owners. The San Jacinto Register is disposed to be boastful of the Artesian wells in its neighborhood. It says: "Last week Civil Engineer Carver of Los Angeles measured the flow of water from A. A. Stoddard's well on San Jacinto avenue and found it to be 969,400 gallons every twenty-four hours. He also measured the flow of Thos. Fairchild's well, one mile west of town and found it to be 1,350,800 gallons every twenty-four hours. Those, thus far, are the best wells in this valley and we doubt if there are any better ones in the state. There has never been a more favorable season than the present for the planting of trees, and the opportunity is being used to the uttermost. Tim Carroll reports that his sales of trees are incredibly large and that the planting is The bill for the funeral expenses of Gen. Grant amount to $14,000 has just been paid by the government. There are some remarkably oranges grown in Anaheim, the samples in the office of Rose and Knapp, from the cards of Messrs. Crowther, Gill and McFadden, can not be passed by the product of Orders or Riverside. Mr. George Rice, the secretary of the Orange Growers Protection Union, says that 10,000 boxes oranges were sold by the union Wednesday afternoon at $2 box delivered on cars at Angeles. The shipments to the Union have sold for equal sum. Orders are coming for California oranges for York. 25 Years Ago FEBRUARY 2, 1911 One must scan the records many years back to match a fall of five inches in January. Week has been a wet one.

Fears of a drought have been It was announced that the following gentlemen had been appointed a committee to canvass for subscriptions to the park and pavilion fund: Zeyn, Kroeger, A. Rimpau, Melrose, L. Parker. More than half a century ago a party of prospectors found a coal mine in one of the small canyons leading from the Santiago canyon, about five miles from the river. They excavated two tunnels, uncovered the ledge of coal, and then, from some cause unknown, abandoned the work. Forty years ago, when Ramon Peralta, was a boy, he heard his elders talk about the mine, the location of which was even then unknown. During past years it has been searched for spasmodically but not until a short time ago was it found. The tunnels and other evidences of its location were concealed by a growth of brush, and it was only by the merest accident that the mine was stubbed upon. Deputy Postmaster Keener of Anaheim, M.A. Ward of Santa Ana and Mr. Hughes an expert coal miner went up to the mine last week and took formal possession. From Mr. Keener we learn that the tunnels are about half a mile apart, and that each is from sixty to eighty feet in length with a cross cut of about twenty feet. The cross cut does not follow the ledge which dips southwest, and it is evident that the men who found and worked the mine knew nothing about mining. The ledge is four feet thick, but the outer walls are mostly shale and slate, leaving a ledge of two feet of good coal. There is no doubt about its being equal to the best coal brought to this market. It has been given a thorough test and burns freely, giving great heat and leaving few ashes.

Additions to the city's lightning plant will also be undertaken in the near future and the city authorities will be asked to lower the lighting rates. Walter Cadman and Miss Mattie Lou Robertson representing Anaheim high school took a fall out of Pomona high school in the second debate of the year at the Auditorium on Friday evening. They assumed the negative side of the question. Resolved That employers of labor are justified in insisting upon the open shop. Pomona was represented by Pratt and Himrod. The judges were Principal Durward of the Lordsburg high school. Prof Brunton of the cipal bond election on Monday voted overwhelmingly in favor of a sewer system, and as well for extending the electric lighting plant. There was at no time a particle of doubt regarding the result of the election and while some little opposition was heard regarding the $8500 electric light bonds for making additions to the lighting plant, there existed little of any objection to the sewers. True, those who oppose bonds for any civic betterment managed to get together 24 votes against sewers, while those opposing the light bonds mustered 68. As a result of the election the city trustees will take up immediately the work of installing a sewer system. During the past week many deeds have been placed on record vesting title in the city for holdings through which the sewer will run. A tract of land of 73 acres, belonging to J. M. Gilbert, situated four miles southwest of the city has been purchased at a cost of $22,000 for a sewer farm. The sewer will run along the Los Alamitos rairoad from the western city limits.

Preliminary 1935 estimates indicate that there are about 52,500 acres of lemon trees in California, exclusive of 1935 plantings. Of this number 10,700, or 20 percent, are non-bearing. This means that over the next five years bearing acreage will show a net average increase of from 500 to 1,000 acres a year, barring losses from natural forces. In 1934-35, commercial production was about 10,400,000 boxes. This was 52 percent greater than the average of 6,820,000 boxes for the preceding five years. The condition of the 1935-36 crop was estimated on November 1 as 68 percent of a full crop as compared with 80 percent a year earlier and 80 percent for the 1923-24 to 1932-33 average. Owing to the relatively low-crop condition, 1935-36 production will be relatively small and with normal or above normal summer temperatures, prices received will probably be higher than in 1934-35. Shipments of California lemons in 1934-35 amounted to 7,209,000 boxes. This was an increase of 15 percent above 1933-34, and exceeded the 1928-29, to 1932-33 average of 5,458,000 boxes by 32 percent. Imports of lemons in 1934-35 were about 4,000 boxes — the kingdom and Canada were much smaller than usual. Because of this fact and the pressure of supplies in domestic market, California shipments to Europe expanded greatly. In 1934-35 total exports were more than 500,000 boxes, or the largest on record. especially after 1937, the industry will probably be confronted with the alternative of accepting sharply lowered prices or finding new markets for lemons in this country and abroad, or disposing of greatly increased quantities in noncommercial channels. The possibility of increased production of limes must be kept in mind as an additional possible competitive problem for the lemon growers.

This was an increase of 15 percent above 1933-34, and exceeded the 1928-29. to 1932-33 average of 5,458,000 boxes by 32 percent. Imports of lemons in 1934-35 were about 4,000 boxes — the smallest on record over a twenty-eight year period. Lemon production in Italy and Spain is not showing much increase. Exports In view of the large potential increases in California lemon production, the export market is of extreme importance as an outlet for surplus lemons. In the long run, the development of new types of demand for lemons and a higher per capita use may be accomplished by aggressive merchandise.
