50 Years Ago September 3, 1886 There was a sharp cut short shower of rain in Anaheim early on Monday morning, but by 7 o'clock the clouds had rolled by. Not so to the northward, however. The rain from Downey to Los Angeles pattered down sprightly, and in the latter city .20 of an inch fell, making the streets disagreeably muddy. One of the effects of this August shower is given in the following paragraph: The 17-inch brick wall 40 feet long in the basement of the Woolworth building now being erected on Spring street was thrown down by the pressure of the mud behind the wall caused by the rain. Anaheim Landing is being deserted by the campers, all of whom assert that they had a tip-top time during their stay. A few Anaheim residents are there yet, and several tents of persons of other localities. But a few weeks more will clear them all out. Somebody is going to "get left" this summer, and that is Capt. Charles Davis, but next year probably quadruple the number of this year will spend the summer at his domain. The Landing will always retain its charm and advantages as a resort for Anaheim. readily at prices which enabled them to pay from $15 to $20 per ton for grapes. He called for an expression of views and suggestions for a way out of the delemma which growers who are compelled to sell their grapes find themselves in. Mr. Crowther spoke at some length suggesting as a means of relief seeking a market for our grapes outside of Anaheim. Mr. D. W. Fish said that if Zinfandels cannot be sold at more than $13 a ton, the only way to make a profit would be to dig up the vines. Mr. Kellogg said $16 would be a fair price for Zinfandels and suggested forming a stock association and building a people's winery to work up next season's crop. Mr. Lawton said it was too late to do anything this season, but advocated organization so as to be ready for business next year. Mr. Nelson and Dr. Gardiner and Mr. Ey spoke also in the same vein. Mr. Hart moved that a committee be appointed to draft a constitution and by-laws for a grape-growers association, it was carried and Messrs. Staley, Nebeling, Melrose and Gardiner were appointed such committee. A canvass among the growers present showed that 460 tons of grapes could be promised by the committee. Messrs. Staley and Hart attended 25 Years Ago Sept. 14, 1911 Representing the Anaheim festival, a committee consisting Gen. Royer, George W. Haver and V. U.

Charles Davis, but next year probably quadruple the number of this year will spend the summer at his domain. The Landing will always retain its charm and advantages as a resort for Anaheim. Pursuant to the call published last week, a meeting of grape growers was held on Monday. The attendance was large and a deep interest was taken in the proceedings. Dr. J. S. Gardiner was called to the chair and John W. Hart was chosen secretary. The chairman stated the object of the meeting to be the consideration of the question, "What shall we do with our grapes." The highest prices that had been offered were $10 for Missoin, $11 for Malvoisie, and $13 for Zinfandel and Berger. These prices were too low the speaker thought, because the wine-makers sold their wines. 1936 National Air Races Let's Go!

Staley and Hart attended a wine-makers and grape growers meeting in Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon at which meeting R. G. Weyse stated that the wine making capacity of Los Angeles was about 7000 tons, not including the Rose establishment, where there are 10,000 tons to be used in the city: that the growers knowing that all grapes could not be worked up and the price likely to be about $10 per ton, a grower comes in, offers his crop at $8 per ton, and another at $7. As forty gallons of brandy can be made from a ton of grapes, brandy could be made for 30 cents per gallon with grapes at $12 per ton, and at $10 per ton brandy would cost but 25 cents a gallon.
