The Plain Dealer for Good Printing It is perfectly fitting that since Anaheim has set the pace and established an annual event to be known as the California Valencia Orange Show, that Anaheim also should set the pace for records obtained for the matchless valencias raised in this section. The Anaheim Orange and Lemon Assn. reports the following sales made yesterday in New York City: Anaheim Gloriana—$6.10. Dellecia (Sunkist)—$5.10. The general public of So. Calif., especially those interested in the raising of oranges and lemons, will have the first real opportunity at the Valencia show next week to see a real exhibit of valencias. These will be gathered from all parts of the state. The relative merits of each section will be passed upon by expert judges. The valencia orange for the first time in history will be officially recognized as one of the two chief varieties of oranges raised in California—the navel as the winter orange and the valencia as the summer orange. At the show next week everyone, whether he is a citrus grower or not, will be given the opportunity to see with his own eyes how our fruit looks when it is packed, and why it commands top prices. There will be things of interest at the show for everyone. It will be educational and the first time in history to witness under ideal conditions the marvelous development of the valencia orange industry. JAIL M.
