ANAHEIM IMPROVING.
A Movement to Get Fruit Cannery
There,

A HERALD man went down to Ana
helm yesterday ON little spin. The
streets were lively, great many people
being in to buy crackers and flags for the
"Glorious Fourth" A large number of
these are we'll known to the reporter,
and they all said business was looking
up in the old colony. 1t is the univer-
sal opinion that the vine disease is at
an end, and that next year there will be
a great many small vineyards set out as
beginning of the great industry for
which Anaheim was celebrated for
many years. Among those who ex-
pressed their confidence in the town for
the future were many old settlers, as F.
A. Korn, Plez James, the Rimpau Bros,
Captain F. H. Keith, N. HI. Mitchell,
Max Nebelung, DIR. J. S. Gardiner, John
w. Hart, Captain H. G. Gade, Richard
Melrose, Tim Carroll, the nurseryman,
H. D. Polhamus, of Mirafores,
E.. G. Pellegrin, Bochs Bros,
S. S. Federman, Joe Helmson,
j. w. Londell, G. F. Erdman, A. San
genberger, Frank Ely, Louis Boltz, A. L.
Lewis, T. A. Darling, the Southern Pa
cifc Company's agent, and many
others.
The HERALD has no boom in Ana
helm, for the reason that it holds the
town as of yore. There are no new sub
scribers there to conquer, excepting as
new settler comes in. The prosperity
OF the HERALD there is we'll illustrated
in the prosperity of it's agent, Joe Helm
sen. Joe has for some time had big
ranch in North Anaheim, and now he
has bought one Of the best blocks in the
city, 1t is where the postoffice was for
years and where the Gazette was pub
lished for long time. 1t is 40 feet front
by about $50 deep, two-story brick
building. Joseph paid round price for
the property, but that is kept on the
q.t. Frank Ely negotiated the sale in
fine shape.
Perhaps the best index of the pros
perity of that district is found
in the nursery of Tim Carroll. He has
sold 100000 orange trees and 100000
walnut trees this season. All these have
been set in orchard near Anaheim. Tim
is rustler. He has now 800 acres of
land, of which more than 100 acres are
devoted to nursery. He has of orange
and walnut stock 100000 young trees.
OF all sorts he has multitude of young
trees in nursery. Mr.. Carroll has 10,-
600 orange and walnut trees set in
orchard OF his own. West of Anaheim
he has 60-acre tract all set with trees.
There is fine artesian we'll on this, and
lakelet will be made there, with boats
and bathing houses attached. The use
of the lake will be free to all the citi-
zens. More power to Mr.. Carroll! He
is the true improver of the section.
Another fine improvement is the new
brewery of F. Conrad, near the South
ern Pacific depot. 1t has a capacity
equal to 1,400 gallons day. The first
brew was made four months ago, and
the beer is now being sold 1t
is remarkably light, sound, wholesome
and refreshing beverage. Mr.. Conrad
has all the newest machinery, two fine
ice houses and all the necessary appli-
ances to make fine beer. The barley is
all grown near Anaheim, and the hops
are of California growth. The whole
place is kept in good order.
Louis Boltz is an old standby in Ana
helm. His resort, just where the street
car stops near the Southern Pacific
depot, is we'll managed and very pop
ular
The latest movement at Anaheim is to
get cannery put up at once to take
care of the fruit crop. Some of the
leading citizens were at work yesterday
with a will getting subscriptions
for the enterprise. They were be
ing encouraged in substantial
manner, and no doubt in few days the
HERALD will be able to say to the people
that the work is actually under way.
