There are probably so carloads left,
which will run the crop of the current
year to about 1,500 cars, or nearly
420, 900 boxes. The value of the crop is
not less than $l,250,000. The area
planted to oranges is about 5000 acres,
and at least 1000 acres have been
planted this year. Much of this
orchard is still to come in bearing, a
good portion of it having its first heavy
crop now on. The output next year will
be 1000 to $500 cars. twill bring into
Riverside close onto $2,000,000. As
there are only 5000 people in the place,
or somewhat over 1000 families, culti-
waiting in all 5000 acres of land, the
significance of these figures is apparent.
The crop sells for $500 to $3.50 per acre
country can compare with it. and
signs of such prosperity. The
owner of 20-acre orchard receives an
annual income of $4,000 to $4,000. No
wonder his place is like a fairy bower,
or that his house is expensively built
and as elegantly furnished as that of
millionaire merchant
Riverside orchardists pay some atten-
ton to raisins, and less to deciduous
fruits. The raisin crop last year sold
for about $500, 900, and the apricot crop
for about $4,000, but as oranges and
lemons pay far greater profits it is not
at all strange to find the owner uproot-
ing vines and deciduous trees to plant
citrus fruit trees in their place.
The Demand for Property.
! While the times are not so brisk as
they were few years ago, they are not
dull in places like Riverside with bear
ing orchards. There are great many
people coming in here looking for paving
investments and they find these in
orange groves most to their liking. In
six months the sales of land in and about
Riverside have amounted to 81 900. 900
and upwards. One sale of the Gage
property swelled this great deal, but
at least 5000, 900 has been invested in
Riverside proper in bearing orange
groves by new people from the east.
Holders OF thirty to fifty acres of trees
are sometimes willing to sell ten acres of
their place, and for such bits the new
comers gladly pay from 81 900 to 81 800
an acre. There are no buildings on
these places. Raw lands sell at from 1875
to $500 an acre. There would be a
great demand for this sort of property.
if trees to plant it could be
had. Young orange trees have
sold for as high as $1.75 each,
and at tnat price there were none to get.
| There will be the same scarcity of trees
next year, but the following year there
will be plenty of them.
