This list might be extended to great
length with uniform result of progress
In all departments of industry except
that of sheep. Owing to the steady
expansion OF the business Of farming,
the sheep industry has been reduced,
and large number have been sold and
shipped abroad. Another very signifi-
cant feature in the report Of the Asses
sor is the fact that while there has been
an enormous increase in all kinds of
business, with double the sales Of real
estate during the year over Tat Of any
previous year, yet the amount of mort
cages does not increase.
The list shows that Los Angeles now
stands at the head OF the agricultural
counties of the State. About one third
Of the 10000, 900 grape vines, are new
vines, not yet bearing. But of the fruit
trees only those that are bearing are
enumerated. There are about as many
new trees, not bearing, as Of those that
now bear. making at least 1880, 900 fruit
trees now growing in Los Angeles county.
Such a growth means much. Not only
is the fruit crop Of these trees valuable,
but nearly all the woods OF fruit trees
are valuable for mechanical purposes.
In short time our orchardists will be
able to furnish themselves with fuel
from the annual trimming of their
orc hards. The wood of the olive and
the apple are so fine that they are used
for engraving with much success. Such
spectacle Of steady growth is not to
be found. during the past year, in any
other county on the Pacific Coast.
Since the assessment was established
the work Of improvement has gone for
ward with increased energy, so that the
valustion of the next year will probably
reach $50. o00.o 900.
The work of water development is
making rapid progress. During the past
year more miles of water pipe have been
laid than in any previous year, and the
area of irrigated land has increased so
per cent. With this increase of trees
and vines, and the number of irrigated
acres, the year 1884 may be expected to
show remarkable increase of products
The spectacle of the advance in values
in this county for the past ten years is
sublimein its stately steppings, and yet,
all abroad it is plainly seen that the in.
dustries and products are only in their
childhood. They can ali be advanced
for many years to come in as rapid a
ratio as they have moved in the past.
Mining in petroleum, coal, silver and
gold, will next year be double the
amount produced this year. Coal more
than doubled last year: petroleum made
a largs increase; silver and gold mining
are preparing to open on large scale;
cheese.making, packing and butter
making have advanced 80 per cent. in a
year, and hay-growing so per cent,
while hop-grcwing has advanced 100
per cent.
A very prominent feature Of the list is
the increased number Of industries.
Every month adds some new source of
wealth to our. inventory. The people

The Macon Telegraph is of the
opinion that there are too many laws
in Georgia to prevent the payment of
debts, and there are too many people
engaged in carrying out the laws in
that regard. These laws ought to be
repealed. Creditors ought not to be
compelled to climb creased pole, and
grease it themselves, as they 20 up,
in order to collect their debts" We
are of the opinion that creditors would
find it easier to collect debts if they
were not so grasping. As it is now, if
farmer wants to buy anything on
credit he is forced to give a mortgage
on everything he owns but his wife
and children, and then asked to paw in
terest at the rate of fifty percent A
man who is thus skinned alive will
naturally do some squirming, and some
times so hard as to wiggle out of pay
ing the debt Nothing tends more to
make the collection of debts hard than
unsurious interest and cut throat mort
cages. To make man honest, treat
him as if he was honest. Americua

of the Georgia Agricultural Society was
that of Mr.. G. E. Thomas, Jr., dele
gate from Muscogee county, relative to
the duty of the farmer to plant an in
creased acreage of grain the ensuing
season, owing to the fact that grain is
advancing in price and cotton is not.
1t would be great benefit to the far
mer If he would adopt this resolution in
practice as we'll as by vote. Tho cot

last year, and with bread stuff advanc-
