The Puente OIL Field.

Mr.. Youle, the maker of the two wells
at Puente for Messrs. Lacy & Rowland,
was in the city yesterday. He is pre-
pairing to sink another well as soon as
possible, but the work of preparation is
necessarily slow in order to be sure.
Cheap and hastily made works for deep
well boring are a delusion and snare.
The best and strongest derrieks, cables,
lars, drills and engines are the cheapest
in the end. Great wells would have
been struck in Puente by MIR. Chandler
six years ago if the machinery had been
sufficiently strong aud all the appoint.
ments first class. Mr.. Youle is now en-.
gagged in sinking the large well still
deeper, when not hindered by the spurt
of gas and oil. He is drilling in an oi
formation and expects to get mucl
larger yield in few days.

How Main street Land Is Given
Away.

How Main street Land IL Given
Away.
Fourteen year-old Seeding orange
trees have an auction value. SIS each
is an extremely low figure. No farmer
would contract to grow them for that
sum. 1t would not begin to pay him for
his labor. In fact he would ridicule
such an offer. Twelve trees to a 5Oxll9
foot lot at that price would equal $3.50.
The city improvements, such as ten
beautiful dwellings, heavy plank walks,
electric lights, etc., nearly exhaust the
difference between $3.50 aud $3.50, the
price Of each lot on the Cooperative
Nursery tract. The owner therefore
asks less than cost of improvements; the
land is thrown in free. This is why the
oder of the Cooperative tract is the
lowest ever made in this city. There is
not @ capitalist in Los Angeles who
would agree to furnish like improve
ments for $250-that il, contract to take
new land and contract to put on it what
we offer, waiting fourteen years for his
money.
So practically fine and slightly piece
Of land is given away without charge.
Examine this offer every way you choose,
realize the tracts location, in direct
line with the city's growth, on the high
est priced street we have, you may then
understand that small investment at
our figures will return you many fold
increase within a very few years.
There is not flaw of any kind in the
property; every detail is perfect, includ.
ing the title. ........
This is forced sale, otherwise no such
price would be made. The reason is
explained by the managers. Many sub
scribers have already realized what we
say. A large proportion of these lots
are already sold. The remainder are
already taken, if we can rely on the
promises of apparently sincere people.
| Five years hence this tract will be as
near the city proper as Fourth and
Main are now. What surer investment
cen one make? No other securities can be
gin to give like returns. Look around
the cities in the United States. How

DEyoURING FLAMES.
Another Fire Lays Low "A Lot OF

Shantfea.
The fire fiend seems 10 say the rook.
cries must go. At shortly after II
o'clock last night general alarm called
out the entire department, aud with
ready alAcrity the laddies from all parts
Of the city answered the call. The boys
from Morris vineyard got in to the
scene Of action as II they came on the
wings Of the wind.
The fire broke out ia the electro
plating works of H. B. Sutliff, on
the west side of Spring street about
midway between Fourth aud Fifth
streets, and Immediately north of the
house Of DIR. Zahn occupied by Mrs. DIR.
Wells as electro thermal baths. This,
fruit stand kept by an italian named
Salvini, and the hay yard of w. K.
Hughes, were all under the same roof
or closely connected roofs, and all these
were destroyed, as the buildings were
mere shells and far removed from
the engines. The suction pipe reservoir
Of the Thirty Eighths gave out in the very
moment OF starting the engine, and only
two streams from the Twos could be put
n the fire. II was q most providential
hing that one of the engines vas not
out Of the city last night, for had 1t been
so and the other broken az il was, the
city had been at the mercy of the flames.
The losses 30 far as could be learned
are w. r. Hughes, the buildings, 20
tons of hay and his account books, val
ued at not less than $1,000; the fruit
man nominal amount, and Sutlif in
his engine and other plant supposed TO be
S75. Mr.. Hughes had halfa dozen horses
and colts in the yard, but some Of the
fire boys got In and cut the ropes. where
upon the terrified animals stood not
upon the order of their going, but went
at once. Several OF them went past the
HERALD building like q whirlwind to
get out Of the reach of the flames.
The origin Of the fire Is unknown, as
Sutliff, together with all his family, went
off to santa Catalina Island yesterday
afternoon and no one had been in their
place after o'clock, fully six hours be.
fore the fire broke out. This is the
second time In about year these cleo
regulating works have been burned out,
the other fire taking place about block
further south than this one. On that
occasion Mr.. Sutliff is said to
have been fully insured, aud he
is covered again to nearly the amount Of
his loss in Charles McNelly's Company.
Mr.. Hughes is also insured in the same
agency for $500.
1t is only a few weeks since another
lot of shantes on the same side of
Spring one block north of last nights
disaster was destroyed by fire. and only
a week since a similar lot Of rookeries
were burned out on Commercial street.

The Olive Crop.

The beautiful olive grove of Mr..
James Craig, near Lamanda Park. ia
loaded with fruit. Mr.. Craig last year
made some fine picked olives and some
fine olive oil. This year he will make a
large amount OF oil, that will yield him
$1,000 per acre.
All along the high mesas in the San
Fernando valley. the Canada and San
Gabriel valley the olive is at home and
in its glory. The fruit must have high
land, iull OF oxygen, in order to produce
its best results, and its results are most
rich and rewarding. 1t is most sur
prising that the land owners of the
highland plateaus do not plant more
olive cuttings. They cost but little,
they are not devoured by gophers or
rabbits, they grow by inspiration more
than by irrigation and live almost for
ever. ..s| =HH
