50 Years Ago
November 22, 1888
As we predicted last week, our winter rains have set in, the total for the season being 3.04 inches. Rain began falling on Thursday evening and on Friday the gauge at Mr. Langeruberger's store marked the precipitation at 1.20 inches. On Saturday we had a season of sunshine, but in the evening rain again fell heavily, and during the night it descended in torrents. The gauge on Sunday marked 1.41 inches of water for the preceding night and 2.61 for the storm. On October 17th we had 10 of an inch of rainfall, this being the first precipitation of the season, and again on November 4th we were visited by slight showers. The total rainfall for the season is 3.04 inches. This is sufficient to make farmers jubilant. The result will be that a largely increased area will be seeded to grow. Already the hills are covered with grass, which has sprung up as if by magic.

Citrus Prospects For 1939 Better
The level of purchasing power throughout the United States and Canada promises to be about 10 per cent better next year than it has been during 1938, but not as good as in 1937, Paul S. Armstrong, general manager of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, said this week in discussing the citrus fruit outlook upon his return from annual sales meetings in the markets and the Washington citrus conference.
"California citrus is still outstanding in its stability, volume of business and even price levels compared to American agriculture generally, even though we are completing our poorest recent year and facing another big crop for 1938," Armstrong said.
"I would like to report differently, but think it best for us to face the facts," he said, explaining that if nothing happens to restrict the harvest in California, Texas or Florida, the industry is facing another difficult marketing job next year.
