view below have every facility for the
shipping and distribution of the various
products raised in profusion in this and the
adjoining territory, and is one of the most
prominent and largest in the country.
The Earl Fruit Company.
This company was incorporated in
1886, with capital of 100000, of which
$4,000 has been paid up.
Edwin T. Earl, its President, has been
actively engaged in fruit packing and
shipping since 1876, and is probably the
most skillful and thoroughly posted fruit
shipper in California.
Their headquarters are at Sacramento
during the summer or deciduous fruit
season and at Los Angeles during the
winter or citrus season. The Chicago
branch is located at 80 South Water
street, and in itself does very extensive
business.
The company is very actively engaged
in packing and shipping all varieties of
green fruit (in carload lots) from all fruit
districts in California. They are the
largest shippers, aggregating over 1000
carloads per year, which are nearly all
shipped to Eastern markets.
In Southern California they will ham
die at least one-third of the entire orange
crop and are well-prepared for it, having
extensive packing houses at all points
and thoroughly competent men in charge
of each district. All their fruit is stem
cut and cured before packing. This, to-
gether with their extreme care in select
ing and packing accounts for their favor
able reputation in all parts of the United
States and Canada.

GRANITE WORKS.


The auarries of this company are To-
Gated at Derbeyville, San Bernardino
county, near Cucamonga. These quar-
ries have been recently opened up, and
are equipped with all OF the latest appli-
ances and Improvements and machinery,
including drills, lathes, hoisting appar-
atus, derricks, polishers, etc. A side
track has been built from the main line
of the S. P. r. R., giving them every fa-
cility for shipping goods direct to any
point. The quality of the granite pro-
duced from these quarries is most superb,
excelling anything in the market in
beauty Of grain, color, finish, and the man
ner of taking polish. There is a perfect
absence of stains and faults, and block
OF any size can be gotten out For
monumental work, this stone should at
tain high place. The use of coarse
and inferior granite is no longer neces-
sary, as an examination of this granite
will convince the most scrupulous. The
Government building at Ell Paso, Texas,
will, without doubt, be constructed of
this stone. The granite wall on New
High street, this city, is largely COM
posed OF this stone, and many monu-
ments, vanlts, ETC., have been constructed
with this granite already.

GROCERS. WHOLESALE,

This interest is represented by three
first-class establishments, and is the
most important of the jobbing interests
of the city. The transactions are very
heavy, reaching over $5,000,00 annu-
ally, and show an increase of over 20
per cent over three years ago. The
stocks carried are immense, aggregating
a half million dollars, and embrace
everything under the head of fancy and
staple groceries. The stocks carried
here are more complete than those found
in any other city on the Coast, not ex-
cepting San Francisco, as, out of neces-
sity, Los Angeles grocery houses are
obliged to carry IN STOCK goods which are
not carried by San Francisco houses, but
supplied by specially firms and agents.
The market in this city affords superior
inducements to merchants in Southern
California, Arizona and New Mexico, for
not only are prices as low, but on some
less than in other points. Having the
same freights from the East and selling
at close margins, Eastern goods in this
market are as low as in San Francisco,
and being nearer the trade, they are en-
abled to supply merchants in this terri
tory with goods, saving freight and time
in transit.
The representatives in this important
trade whom we review below, have given
it a notable and commendable eleva-
tion through conservative and liberal
methods.
