THE WEATHER.
Statistics for the Past Thir-
teen Years.
AND BAROMETER
Number of Days on Which Rain Fell
and the Am0unts-VelOcity
of the Wind.

The weather of Los Angeles is always
an interesting subject for discussion, and
the official record is very handy thing
70 have when arguments occur. The
Signal Service records here are very
complete, and the statistics presented
below cover almost every ground on
which argument is based. A study Of
the tables. which are complete for nearly
thirteen years, reveals some very inter-
esting facts. The first table shows the
temperature, and glance at it shows
that during 1889 the mean temperature
was higher in almost every month than
it was in 1888, but when compared with
other years it will be seen that in the
whole thirteen years there was not a
variance Of over five per cent in the
mean of any month. The highest tenn
persture during the year Was reached in
September. when 103 degrees was
reached, and the lowest was recorded in
January, when the temperature recorded
32 degrees.
In another table showing the number
of days on which the temperature rose
above 80 degrees, the record shows that
there were not 30 many as in 1883 or in
the majority of the years of which the
figures are given. There were no daye
on which the thermo ometer fell below the
freezing point, and in 13 years there were
only days in which the temperature
broke below that point. If December
1889, is left out of the calculation the
number of days on which .01 of an inch
or more of precipitation fell in 1889 is be
low the average, but with December, the
record of which is not complete, is In
cluded the record will go above the aver
age, although not much more than ir
1884 The table showing the annual
rainfall is very interesting for it shows
that with the exception of 1884 more
rain fell in 1889 than in any of the thirteer
wears. The taule also shows that
in December of 1889 more
rain fell than in any other month on rec
ord. In 1884 1887 inches fell in Feb.
ruary, while in December of 1889 Is. rs
inches fell. The tables also show that
the wettest months of the year are Jan
uary, February, March and December
The rainy season in 1889 commenced
unusually early, 81 of an inch being
recorded for August. In only one yea
did the rain fall 80 early, and that wal
in 1885,
The following table shows the monthly
temperature for thirteen years, with th'
highest, lowest and mean temperature
for each month:

California about $50, 900 boxes. including
shipments and local consumption.
These figures given by the Courier
prove beyond the scope of controversy
that there is great future for orange
culture in this section. The 2,7S7 car.
loads shipped from this State all went
from Southern California. There are
few small groves in other parts of the
State, but, as the San Bernardino papsr
shows, they ripen about two weeks
earlier than in Southern California. and
are all absorbed by the San Francisco
market. As the production of the
upper part of the State must, on account
of climatic conditions, always remain
small, that will be the history of the fu-
ture as well as of the past. At the pres.
ent rate of progress, in few years the
orange crop of California will be as large
as that of Florida. The crops of the
two States do not come in direct
competition with each other for
the reason that the Florida oranges
ripen earlier than those of California,
and pass out of the market early in the
spring. This is all the better for the
growers of both States. They are the
only orange producing sections of the
country.

DOWNEY.

Its Advantages of Location, Soil
and Climate.
Downey is situated about twelve miles
southeast of Los Angeles, on the Santa
Ana branch of the Southern Pacific rail-
way, in the heart of the beautiful Los
Nietos valley. This valley is Justly
famed for the fertility of it's soil and the
diversity of its products. Ranchito, at
it's head, in the foothills of the western
spur of the Sierra Madre range, is noted
for extensive orchards of oranges, wal.
nuts, peaches, pears and figs, and exten.
sive fields of corn and herds of fine stock.
Norwalk and Artesia also lie in the midst
Of fine tract OF country, which is fast
developing, while Downey is the natural
is, besides, surrounded by thousands OF
acres Of rich agricultural lands, capable
of producing all the choicest fruits of
temperate and semi.tropical climates.
Owing to the bend of the coast Dow
ney lies about eight miles nearer the sea
tha Il Los Angeles, the distance to Long
Beach being only about twelve miles.
The sea breezes have therefore sufficient
sweep to cool the air, even on the hottest
summer day, while it is far enough in.
land TO be free from the disagreeable
rawness noticeable on the immediate
seashore. No more desirable place for
a suburban residence can be imagined.
It lies near enough to Los Angeles to be
easily accessible, the trains which 20 to
and fro several timesa day carrying peo.
pie having business in this city there
and back at convenient hours, and
almost as rapidly and cheaply as they
could make their way from the imme-
diate outskirts of town.
.Downey lies in the center of a broad,
level plain, which, we'll watered and vis-
tied by the moist breezes and occasional
mist from the ocean, is kept green, even
during the summer months.
The town at present counts about / 900
inhabitants, and is prettily laid out with
broad, even streets, several of which are
bordered by rows of pepper and eucslyp.
tus trees, while nearly all the homes are
surrounded by blooming gardens and
thrifty orchards. The land is remark
ably productive, and will raise almost
any variety of fruit and vegetable with
out irrigation.
Owing to the advantages of location
Downey has been selected as the place
for holding the annual fair of the Los
Angeles County Agricultural Associa.
ton. Some definite idea of its import.
ance as center of trade may be
gathered from the tabulated statement of
the produce shipment by rail from Dow
ney station for six months:

It will be seen there is some decrease
in the assessment this year as compared
with that of last year, the cause of which
has already been indicated in the shrink.
age in the value af certain realty.
The school census includes all children
between the ages of five and seventeen,
and shows steady increase each sue
ceeding year, and according to the rule
of using the multiplier, five and one-half,
the population of the county is about
Sc, 900.
The two great transcontinental rail.
road companies have Alb miles of main
road and branches in the county, which
was assessed at $4 ,678, ,095 last year.
It is pointed out that the culture of the
orange has been most successfully car
ried on in San Bernardino. In reference
to this branch of the subject the Courier
goes on to say:
The following figures, showing by dis.
tricts the plant of orange trees this year
and the acreage previously set we're care

In the Chino district the first trees,
probably 1000, were set the past season.
There were also few set, and there are
some older and bearing trees, in the Mt.
Vernon, Waterman and other districts,
all of which are included in the above
table.
The 2,497 acres set this year repre-.
sent about 800 900 trees, which cost, on
an average, $1.10 a piece, or total Of
1915, 900. The preparation of the land
and setting the trees cost from $40 to
500 per acre, or about $50 900 more,
making grand total of about $42S, 900
expended in this branch of industry
this year by the orange growers of the
county.
The shipments of oranges during the
past season are indicated by the follow
ing figures furnished US from the railroad
offices. They we're made from the sta
tions named, and went forward in car
lots, except those noted in broken lots
which went out in emaller shipments by
freight and express:
Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-01-01

Total product. 49,. ............... $40, 262
Ontario and North Ontario were ship
pers this year for the first time and sent
out about 1000 boxes in broken lots.
There are no groves that have come into
bearing at South Riverside and East
Riverside.
The above 300, 900 boxes shipped rep.
resent about ,049 carloads, and brought
into the county about $720 900 in cash.
The total product of 100000 boxes, rep.
resenting 1,0S4 carloads, was grown on
about 1000 acres, worth $744 900, show
ing an average yield of $lS6 per acre
for trees of all ages, including orchards
that came into bearing for the first time,
and all other groves in the county that
had borne one or more years. 1t re.
quires four years from setting to bring
budded orchard to bearing, and six
to seven years to bring a Seeding or
chard to bearing.
When it is considered that the trees
only produce from ten to twenty boxes
per acre the first year they bear, and
that only trifing per cent. of all the
trees in bearing have reached the ages Of
maturity, it is safe to say that these 1000
acres will double the product of the last
season within five years, and that they
will keep on increasing their yield, year
by year, in less degree thereafter for a
number of years.
As high as $3.50 per acre net was OBJ
tanned from four-year- old budded grove
the past season, and there are about
forty orchards in the county which paid
ten per cent. net on valuations of $4,000
and upwards per acre the last crop.
Unimproved orange lands, with water
right, are held at $l75 to $3.50 per acre.
The total shipment of the State
amounted to about 2,787 carloads of ten
tons each the past season, and the first
carload of the crop was shipped from
Riverside December 8, 1889.
The Florida crop last season was esti-
mated at 1900, 900 boxes, and the first
carload shipment of the season from that
State was forwarded October 1S, 1889,
destined for New York City.

I. d. Edwards. of the Lead City

their hands. The Sioux Falls Press,
in reviewing the action Of the grand
jury, intlmates that there is political
significance in the bringing of thesss
indictments, and says: 1.-The action of
the Lawrence county grand jury. in
censuring newspapers for slandering
the chairman Of the board Of county
commissioners, is understood to Ike a
beginning of the next campaign for

that the jury was Moody body, and
its action is bitterly condemned by his
enemies. Senator Moody will he in big
luck if he has much of a following
from the Black Hills legislative dis
tricts next time as he had the last time
and he will he in bigger luck if he
has so much support from several other
