orchards have been planted by the pur-
chasers of these lands the past season

consist of apples, peaches, pears,
prunes. figs, plums, cherries, per-
simmons, raisin and table grapes, To-
quats, ounces, apricots, English wal.
nuts. chestnuts and olives. Most OF
these fruits bear sufficiently the third

and by the fifth or sixth year return $2OO

lands, under good management, will be
worth 81 900 to 81 800 per acre. as soon 80
