The early-planted corn is up,
with good stand, looking thrifty.
The rainfall this week assures a
fair crop Of small grain on the
mesa lands. Of course the crops Oh
the lowlands are safe.
Downey takes the lead of any
point in the county in the export
Of hogs, poultry, eggs, butter and
corn. Rich land and plenty of
water are the foundation of this
superiority.
The following are the shipments
At Downey Depot for the month of
March: Exports-Corn, 2, 460 sacks,
Weighing 3l8,788 pounds; barley,
210 sacks, 1890 pounds; rye, Isl
sacks, 19,057 pounds; walnuts, 1853
sacks, 10,348 pounds; hogs, II car
loads, (l,296), 100000 pounds;
oranges, 0 boxes, $50 pounds; mer-
chandise 1895 .pounds. Total
~, ,56S pounds. Imports-Merchan-
disc, 72, 755 pounds.
lDowney Courier.l
1t Is stated that the enterprise of
planting an immense field of corn
on the Laguna Ranch has been
abandoned on account Of the poor
prospects Of being able TO mature o
crop.
DR.. Wolfe shipped three car loads
Of hogs from here to San Francisco
yesterday morning.
We understand that the wire
worm Is attaching and destroying
the corn planted In some localities.
This pest generally works more or
less mischief every year. On this
account some farmers delay plant
ing as long as possible.
