EDITORS HERALD: Our weather for the
last few days has been warm, Just what
everybody wants. II we are to have fruit
We must have good weather. In week
we will have fruit equal to any in the
State, and then it will not be necessary
to bring our supply from the Northern
Citrus Belt. Although many of our citi-
zens subdivided their orchards and placed
the land on the market, the trees have
been well cared for.
All the carpenters are busy, and the
building boom has not ceased. Captain
Gray's house is about ready for occu-
pancy. The house of Mr.. Geo. Rice will
soon be completed, and concerning build
ing, the Alhdmbra advocates building
houses to let. ALI our houses are occupied
and many people are seeking homes to
rent. 1t would be paying investment
for our citizens to build houses to rent,
that would cost about $1250.
s Our minds have never been annoyed
with a choice of the best places to do
our shopping. When we wanted to do
any we went to Los Angeles. Of late
we have been given better communica-

to the "Crown of the Valley" and be
home in few hours, rather than to go
to the City Of the Angels and stay all day.
when there will be no choice in the mat
right here that can be bought either in
Los Angeles or Pasadena.
The Rapid Transit makes two round
k~sx nh, Anxr haf NTnnrDvto ov,A
Ramona. Although there ia not much
travel on the road, there is more than
was expected. This demonstrates the
need of its completion. The present
hours OF the Southern Pacific do not give
satisfaction; many OF our citizens go to
Pasadena and take the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe to Los Angeles.
The Alhambra brickyerd is doing a
thriving business.
A little later than this last year there
was much surprise expressed on account
of so many vines dying. The cause was
not known. This year, when the vines
started to grow many OF those that were
affected last year began to leaf out almost
as nicely as the others. Now, those that
we're diseased last year and good many
others are dying. The leaves all shrivel

is put forth.
This disease appears most prevalent
among the Mission variety. There is as
yet no remedy for the evil, but one can
hardly be expected when we do not even
know the cause.
The crop OF grapes this year will be
large, and some believe that prices will
be the same as those of last year, or
better.
The "Alhamars" expect to have
about three meetings more this season,
and then they will take vacation dur
ing the summer months. The schools
closed last Thursday, which fact makes
many small boy happy. Every hour a
street car leaves Alhambra for Pasadena
Blackberries are now ripe. Mr.. q. M.
Goff and Miss Lsmert were Thursday
united in marriage at the BRIDES resi-
dence in Pasadena. They will live in
Alhambra. Mr.. Grow has removed his

as necessary as is any other place of
pleasure and amusement, and it be-
hoOveS st. Paulites to be stirring or else
run the risk of being termed unprO-
gressive. A number of gentlemen we'll
known in business and sporting circles,
recognizing these facts, are at present
agitating the matter with view to
forming an Atlethic association and
purchasing suitable grounds. They
have been offered a very handsome tract
of land in West st. Paul, easy of access,
and within short distance from the
present ball grounds, at a very moderate
figure. The railroad and street car
lines stand ready to make all due con-
ceSsionS in case the deal is cOnsummated.
These grounds, complete in every re-
spect, with all necessary furnishings,
will cost about SO. 900. A tract has also
been offered on West Seventh street, but
as the price demanded is higher and the
grounds not as convenient as those on
