We visited the place of General
Baldwin in the northern part of the
city yesterday, and had the pleasure
of looking through what we consider
some model grounds. The General
has about two acres enclosed for n
homestead and the place is covered
with nearly every kind of fruit known
to semi-tropical California. He has
orang ges, lemons and grapes of several
varieties, figs, almonds, lines, wal
nuts, apples, and almost the whole
round of useful and ornamental shrubs
and flowers. We saw orange trees six
wears old bearing fair crops and some
more mature completely loaded down
with fruit, rs well as lemons and lines
bearing equally full. The General has
the advantage OF n fine spring of his
own with which he irrigates at pleas

city zanja. Altogether, we have never
seen place more orderly and well ar
ranged, and, for one only six years old
we commend it to the inspection OF
our Eastern visitors as an example OF
