KUCHEL Editors and Publishers Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1879. THE SANTA FE AND ANAHEIM With the completion and dedication this week of the new Santa Fe depot it is well to pause for a moment to consider the development of the railroad in the light of growth of Anaheim. In looking back to 1888, when the old depot was built, we see many obstacles and challenges to the railroad in the maintenance of their service. For instance, in January of 1890, the upper bridge was washed out in a heavy rain storm. This caused a delay in the mails of almost a week. With the help of Chinese vegetable growers along the river the rail crew got the bridge approaches back stronger than ever in a few days. This was before the Santa Fe went to San Diego. The tracks than came down from Los Angeles through Anaheim and turned back northeast at Orange connecting with Highgrove. During this period there were many other instances of heroic work to keep the service open. Later in the year of 1890 we came across the fact that the third trainload of sheep left Anaheim for Kansas City and Chicago. The real interesting part of this note is the fact that the sheep train went through on passenger train time. Ten cars of sheep from Anaheim to Chicago on passenger schedule was something of an event in those days. Around the years of 1893-94 service to San Diego was started. It was quite an event and quite a trip in those days. The locomotives weighed 50 to 70 tons when today they are 450 tons. A speed of 30 to 40 miles per hour was burning up the road. Today we go over the same route at 90 to 120 miles per hour. More than five hours were required for the trip to San Diego including a stop in Oceanside for lunch and Packing House Has Good Years Community Growers Per Acre Yield Increases 40 Per Cent President John V. Thompson phasized in the annual substantial savings in open expenses during the past year He also reported on the wet Citrus Sales, Incorporated association of 11 Sunkist house northern Orange county to motive greater consumption valencia oranges near the printing centers.

More than five hours were required for the trip to San Diego including a stop in Oceanside for lunch and the fare was close to seven dollars. Today the same trip can be made in about two hours and costs about two dollars. Yes, the Santa Fe has improved a great deal since the old station was built. Anaheim, too, has improved in every way during that time. One has only to thing of the streets, churches, schools, parks and the new depot to realize how much better living in Anaheim has become. Anaheim Citrus Returns are Good Field Box Revenue Best Since 1936. Manager Reports (Continued from Page 1) the association costs had been less last year than never before. Chief reductions were in cost of packing and precooling, made possible by increased volume, he said. HANDLE 758 CARS The association handled a merchantable crop of 758 cars of oranges which returned $579,000 to the association. A. H. Kirchman, manager of the Northern Orange County Citrus Exchange, gave a talk on general marketing conditions during the past season. Robert Dowling, manager of Citrus Sales, Inc., reported on activities of the organization. Following the dinner, which was attended by approximately 200 growers, Dr. A. J.
