ONTARIO.

1t should be remembered that Ontario
is one of the young settlements which
has roseate future before it, and is
destined in the not distant future to be-
come one of the chief points of attrac-
ton in this part of the state-if it does
not already occupy such position. Even
now, this eight-year-old settlement,
with its 1900 population, contributes
much to the business of our southern
metropolis-Lo Angeles.
The prospect OF Il large fruit crop,
citrus and deciduous, was never better
in this locality.
p. w. McFatridge recently took 100
pounds of honey from 60 hives of bees.
A sample of the honey was presented to
President Harrison, during his stop
here.
Ontario is making an effort to put on
metropolitan airs-going to sprinkle the
streets. The Observer says that only in
sprinkling of streets does Ontario differ
from paradise, and that with dustless
streets our colony would be equal to
that celebrated resort.
1t is estimated THAI 100000 orange
seeds have been planted out in seed
beds in Ontario and Cucamonga this
spring, and the quantity of seeds plant
ed in this (San Bernardino) county,
will be enough, three or four years
hence, to plant 1000, 900 acres OF orange

The following extract from letter
received by the HERALD yesterday is a
good description OF the impression made
by the San Gabriel valley and Pomona :

delightful drive down through the val
ley of San Gabriel to Savannah, Ell
Monte, Puente and other points along
the Southern Pacific railway, and find
everything in a flourishing condition.
The fruit growers and farmers are all
quite active. Some are busy shipping
fruit, others cutting alfalfa, plowing
and cultivating the vineyards generally,
while the merchant and politician are
lying quietly by waiting-full returns
and rich harvest in the sweet bye
and bye'
pomona is without question to tho
front in every respect. Not only is she
lovely town of Garden of Eden pre-
tensions, but a modern little city of 5000
inhabitants, with a metropolitan air
and tendencies, with her several ma
tional banks, fine hotels, grand avenues
and boulevards dotted on either side by
the weeping willow, the pepper, the
maple, the cypress and geranium,
trimmed fences, together with her ex-
ceedingly hospitable people, whose
latchstring can always be found on the
outside to visitors, whether it be the
president of the United States or tour
