Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1886-11-25
Los Angeles IYeather.

A Sacramentan who moved to Los An
geles some months ago writes to friend in
this city, saying he is 4" sick and tired Of
the beastly climate, in that section. He
says they have been having a cold spell
there for some weeks which is far beyond,
ID severity, anything ever experienced in
San Francisco. The orange trees are badly
frost-bitten, but it is not yet known whether
the entire crop will be failure or not.
Eastern people are beginning to realize that
the climate they bought is sham and
fraud, and there will be ere many days a
stampede for the more congenial cline OF
the Sacramento valley 1t is amusing, he
says, to hear the Los Angeles real estate
agents lie about Sacramento. They would
make the consumptives believe that the
State Capitol is enveloped in dreary man.
