THE CITRUS FAIR.
INDICATIONS THAT 1T WILL BE A
GREAT SUCCESS.
The List of Special Locality Days-,Ma
of the Details Already Arranged East
erners to Be Given Reception.

Arrangements for the citrus fair are
progressing satisfactorily, and it is now
certain that for artistic merit it will be
better than anything heretofore given
in the state. The only trouble seems to
be that the pavilion is almost too small
to allow the best arrangement Of the
many exhibits that have been entered.
The railroad companies have made an
especial rate for round trip tickets from
all parts OF the Sixth congressional dis
trict, and arrangements are in progress
for a special excursion from San Fran
cisco, when, it is expected, the fare will
be placed at half the regular rate.
Special locality days have been fixed
as follows:
Wednesday, March 4th: Ontario, Po-
mona, Spadra, Monte, Savannah, San
Gabriel and Alhambra.
Thursday, March 9Th: Santa Ba, bara
Ventura, Newhall, San Fernando, Bur-
bank, Glendale, Tropico and Redondo
Beach.

Monica, San Pedro and Long Beach.

The ladies of the Women's Relief
corps have rendered their services in
assisting in the decoration of the pa
vilion, and after the fair opens will
! assume control over the lunch privileges.
The ladies' annex of the chamber of
commerce have also signified their will
ingness to assist in the decorations.
Invitations have been sent to the state
legislature to be in attendance, and also
to all of the state boards and organiza-
tions.
Some OF the designs Will be very
elaborate and handsome. and the in
terror draping of the pavilion will be in
harmony with the rest of the designs.
Ii the supervisors of this county will
assist the county committee, hand
some arch will be put up over the stage.
The ladies' annex will construct min
iature copy of the new court house.
Riverside and Redlands have adopted
grand designs, and Ontario has an
nounced her intention of surprising the
people. San Diego county has fixed
upon handsome design, and some of
the fruit producers OF Fresno county
have applied for space. 1t is the inten-
ton to fill the stage with exhibits this
year, in order to make more room. I'm
less Superintendent Hanchette is offered
something unique in the way OF even
ing entertainments, music will be the
chief feature every evening and ad-
dresses every afternoon.

the Chicago exhibit five cases OF fruits
