Friday, February 11, 1921 TELLS HISTORY OF NAVEL IN COUNTY How he quit a baseball game and rushed home with a twig of a navel orange tree, the first he had ever seen, for which he had paid $16. told by C. E. Parker, of Santa Ana. From that twig were propagated many of the navel orange trees afterward planted in the Santa Ana valley. C. E. Parker—best known to his friends as Ed Parker—and his brother, Clarence H. Parker, ran a nursery at the north end of North Main-st of Santa Ana for five or six years, beginning about 1875.

Main-st in those days, excepting the road that led into Santa Ana thru sagebrush, around clumps of elders and thru huge mustard patches. "Our family moved down from San Jose in 1873," said C. E. Parker, "and settled at the north end of what is now N. Main-st. The house that was built by my father still stands at the southeast five acres of main and Chapman. "There was a road from Orange, which had just started, to the Rodriguez crossing across the Santa Ana river up the river above the County hospital. The old stage road cut across country south of Chapman and Main, crossing a third of a mile to the south." But to get back to the nursery business. At the southwest corner of what is now Main and Chapman, was a seven-acre tract, covered with sagebrush. One spring along came an expreacher named Wilson who then lived in the old Fletcher adobe at Olive. He had several yoke of oxen that he wanted to hire out with himself. Mr. Parker, Sr., made arrangements for one yoke of oxen and the use of a big plow. With the oxen and the plow the ground was broken. Two or three years later this seven acres was where the Parker brothers' nursery was located. "The first seed bed I ever saw," said C. E. Parker, "was located in the center of Orange, where the plaza now is. There was a post and a faucet there then, and everybody around got water at that faucet. There was no plaza there then, just a crossroads. Mr. Beach had set out an orange seedbed southwest of the faucet just as close as he could get to it so he would not have to carry water far. "When we decided to go to raising some oranges, I seed While Anahale with growing walnuts; there were only a yards there, and angles for seed. I to B. D. Wilson's and bring home anges.

At first, popular because it looked good. "We began to Washington navels propagated from navel orange trees." "Louis G. Butler Hemet a year or so a lot on N. Broad build there, was then. He was up got hold of some navel twigs." "I remember t in Orange with were playing a gas right in the middle he got there."
