PLACER COUNTY.
A GLANCE AT ITS ATTRACTIVE
FEATURES.
Something Demanding the Atten-
ton of Intending Settlers-The
FoothilI Region for Fruit.

EDS. RECORD UNION: Having lived in
this county nearly five years, and become
somewhat conversant with its various feat
ures, I send you brief article concerning
ing it, which, it has occurred to me, ought
10 be of interest 10 those who have not had
an opportunity to visit the foothills and
the mountain slopes of this fourishing
region.
Placer county is nearly parallelogram,
extending northwest and southeast about a
hundred miles 1t is bounded by the
counties of Nevada, Sutter, Sacramento and
Ell Dorado. The typographical features of
this section of the State, are traversed by
numerous rayines and diversified by undu-
lating hills, presenting scenery rarely
eoualled. The chief industries are mining,
granite Quarrying and horticulture, which,
within the last score of years have been
very extensively developed. Mining opera
tons are not so fourishing as formerly.
Many years ago placer mining was the
leading feature, especially in the vicinity of
Newcastle, where the old-time mining
camps OF Ophir and Gold Hill are
located And there are honest old
miners who actually believe this the verita-
BILE 0phir" from which King Solomon
procured the gold for his Temple. 1t is
really amusing to hear old settlers, who are
yet indulging to considerable extent in
placer mining operations, tell of the good
times they once enjoyed.
Quartz mining is for the most part car
ried on in the lower section of the county,
there being several mills between Penryn
and Newcastle. The quartz mill which
was recently erected in the vicinity of the

fact that from u to 10 inches of rain is the
full average of seasons, and that the ele-
ments could not be very actively or con-
tinuously employed to only produce that
quantity from November till April. An
other phase of the California climate. con-
corning which our Eastern brethren are
wofGlly at sea, is that summer seasons
must be so hot as TO be almost uncomfortable
and they are greatly surprised, if not
little bit incredulous, when they are told
a single authenticated case of sunstroke
never occurred on the Pacific coast, and
that man can work with perfect safety in

mercury is recording 115o in the shade

Fall River Shasta county, NALL
For the benefit of Eastern people, if they
should happen across this sheet, we pro-
ducea few statistical comparisons, by which
it will be observed that California contains
room and to spare fer the reception of all
the people of several Eastern States. and
still be naught buia wild, uninhabited re-
gion." Within the rim OF our several great
interior valleys there are 100000 acres,
an area equal to that OF Maine New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and
Pennsylvania. Yet those States have
population of 13427,970. A population
which supports the three imperial trade
centers OF the country-Boston, New York
and lphia-besides scores Of local
points for the concentration and distribu-
ton of the immense commerce generated
in the necessities and energies of those
millions of people. Going abroad for a
comparison, this habitabie area of Califor-
MIA naturally tributable to Gan Francisco is
one and fourth times the size of Great
Britain, with her 100000 of people. Yet
our valleys have only 2S4, GOO souls, and our
whole area only 81 persons to the square
mile The whole Atlantic slope has 22.4
to the square mile; the Merrimac valley
has 926; the Connecticut valley has 565;
the valley Of the Hudson, l73 the basin of
the st. Lawrence. 80 the Ontario basin,
49,; that of Lake Erie, S9G the valley Of
the Miami 1897; while the valleys of the
Sacramento and San Joaquin have only 40
to the square mile.
To continue the suggestive comparison
If our two great valleys were as densely
peopled as the basin of the st. Lawrence,
their population would be 1,S56000; if
equal to the New England coast they
would have 3,53S 600; if equal to the On
tario basin, 4,523,000; if equal to the val
ley Of the Delaware, 10 POSI- 600. To sum
up: The present unoccupied area of these
valleys should support 100000 Of peo-
pie, a population which would make San
Francisco the most desirable business city
in the world and the mart Of an immense
commerce, as varied in the products which
create it as the globe-gleaned trade Of Lon
don.
Yet with this stupendous array Of figures
interior California is still what might be
called a frontier commonwealth.
All of this area is capable OF high farm
ing. 1t wild produce a commercial surplus
of every necessity, luxury and delicacy
listed in the food supply that grows out
side the tropics. Noble mountains rise on
either side of those valleys, clad with TIM
Der which shelters the cool sources Of the
waters Tor irrigation. The seashore IS
short journey distant. Thermal springs
pour out their medicinal waters near at
hand, and here lies a richer soil than Bel
GUM has, under kinder skies than Italy
can boast Come to California.

the fact is that ninety per cent. of
the children reared within its limits are
perfect types OF health. During the sum-
mer months it is warm in the valleys, the
thermometer at times ranging as high as
1902 in the shade, and even higher. But
notwithstanding this the nights are de-
lightfully cool and pleasant. thus rendering
sleep refreshing. For nearly two-thirds OF
the year the temperature is almost uniform,
and very appropriately has the remark
been applied that it is identical with that
of southern Italy" 1t IS a fact worthy of
mention, that during the time ii is intensely
cold in some parts of the continent in win
ter, out-of-do0r laborers find it here TO their
advantage to pursue their work in their
shirt sleeves. During the summer season
Auburn, Blue Canyon and Lake Tahoe are
special resorts of hundreds of invafdS, and
il is gratifying that many individuals WHO
were apparently in advanced stages of con-
sumption have found relief Being so con-
ducive to health and comfort, and to all
other requisites that are deemed indispen-
SADLY necessary 10 render life enjoyable,
they attract also the admiration of hosts of
pleasure-seekers.
Auburn. the county seat of Placer
county, and which, judging by the health
full appearance of its residents, might be
termed the sanitarium of the Sacramento
valley, IS one of the Oldest towns in the
State. 1t is very beautifully situated at an
altitude of 1850 feet above sea level,
with population of 1000 the town proper
extending about a mile below the railroad
station The immediate vicinity is dotted
with fine. orchards and handsome villas,
the sites of which only few years ago
were densely covered with brush and chap
arrel and to persons who have inhabited
this part of the country during that inter-
val it seems almost impossible to realize
the magnitude of the improvements made
in so short q time. Auburn has a fine
Courthouse, a good County Hospital for
those who are homeless, decrepit and aged,
and many other costly buildings, includ-
ing churches, schools, hotels, etc, of fine
architectural appearance.
In travelling through this part of the
country one cannot fail TO observe the
beautiful panorama Of the Sacramento val
ley. In the distance the State Capitol looms
up $50 feet, and can be seen very distinctly,
and general view OF the valley is OBJ
tanned.

WON'T BELIEVE THE TRUTH.
The Eastern People Cannot Comprehend
Our Indescribable Heritage.

The ignorance land the term is not used
in an offensive sense) which prevails among
all classes of people in the Eastern States
with respect to California, is most surpris-
ing to one who has had opportunities to
become familiar with the real conditions
This lack of knowledge was manifest in all
the sections we recently visited and on the
lines of travel, by the many seemingly alb
surd questions asked of US, by those with
whom we conversed on the subject. One
would say have heard that you have
but two seasons in your State, a wet and
dry one" Upon admitting that that was
about the fact, be would inquire
how long is the dry season? We
would answer that the seasons varied
in length some, but usually no
rain fell OF any consequence, if at all, from
the 10Th of April till the 18th OF Novem-
Der. Don't the country burn up, and DO
you have to feed your stock all that
time? would be the next query, evil
IDENTIFY believing that the dry season
here necessarily entailed as-many calarni-
tous consequences as would six or seven
months drought in that country We ex-
planned the enigma with the information
that the soil and climatic conditions of
California were such that when sufficient
quantities OF ram iell curing the wet sea-
son to moisten the earth thoroughly-say
from Il TO is inches, reasonably well dis
tributed, crops were assured, and any more
worked an injury instead of benefit, for
the reason that it would be likely to pro-
Once rust on rank growing grain, or such
storms would cause it to lodge, rendering
it comparatively worthless; that vegeta-
ton of all kinds metured. and the dry
weather simply cured it in the stem,
retaining all its nutritive qualities and
stock kept rolling fat on that sort of feed
until the fall rains destroyed It; that it was
common sight 10 see sleek. fat cattle
feeding upon pastures that look as brown
and bare as the shell of coeoanut. There is
also an idea prevalent that the wet season
in California means an almost continuous
downpour. This erroneous impression we
attempted TO disabuse By pointing to the

provided with railroad transportation, the
county seat and the important mining
town of Grass Valley being connected by
rail with the Central Pacific at Colfax; and
the contemplated railroad from Grass Val

give this county all the fast transportation
desirable or to be reasonably expected, in
