In an interview with Colonel Ford

good results as l can from the Ford g

over one hundred thousand trees, and
have so many orders filed that I despair
OF filling all and having any for reserve !;
that is why 1 am now fastening to put
in more ground to walnuts. The de-
mand now from every direction is for
walnuts."
What localities and soils are best for
walnuts? was asked.
"Valley lands" was the ready
answer. ga loose sandy loan, such as
all valley lands in Southern California
possess. Walnuts seem to do better
where there are heavy and frequent
fogs. The nearer the seacoast the bet

a rule, but any valley lands where fogs

erous irrigation is procurable."
The Santa Ana nurseries are among
the most important in the state, and
Col. George w. Ford, the proprietor,
one of the most practical orchardists
and nurserymen and an authority on all
subjects in connection with the propa-
eating OF nursery stock and growing of
fruits. gives them his personal atten-
tion. The colonel lives near his home
nursery, in one of the handHomest resi-
dences in Santa Ana, which nestles
costly and comfortably in exquisitely
laid out grounds, whose hospitable
doors are thrown open to his friends at
all times. A cigar and an easy chair in
the colonel'e library is luxury to be

remembered, while the cosy teas of Mrs.
Ford and the splendid dinners and even
ing parties are occasions remembered,
and many have the pleasant remem-
brance.
While it may seem like divergence,
it should be noted here-for it will be
appreciated by those who have a desire
to know more in detail in regard to
practical fruit-growing in Southern Cali
fornia and by those who desire purchas-
ing nursery stock-Colonel Ford has
now in press an elegant and compre-
hensive catalogue and discussion Of
those subjects, especially treating Of
the walnut industry, which can be &C.

one of the most exquisitely conceived

community ever coming under the
writer's notice. The beautiful prom
enadea, each picture, dreams within

Of course, school and church buildings
are epecial features; but wherever, in
all California, are they not? Tustin is
the southern terminus of the Southern

WESTMINSTER AND GARDEN GROVE.
In the vicinities of Garden Grove and
Westminster agriculture pure and Sim
pie takes precedence; this is in the
peat land district and adjacent Berries
of all kinds are remarkable in size and
flavor, and ship we'll, being solid and
firm. Important creameries are oper-
ated in each place, the pasturage being
fine and the unstable vegetables util-
lied for provender for the cattle. This
locality turns out some fine beef cattle
also, and as whole, a very important
factor to the county is that little neck of
the woods.

AGRICULTURAL.
Adaptation of Soil to Products Grown in
the Valley

Adaptation of Soil to Products Grown in
the Valley
Until few years ago no one thought
of attempting to raise for market other
products than barley and hay, grapes
and citrus fruits. When few years
ago blight came to their vineyards and
the scale to their orange groves, and
with such virulence as to almost totally
destroy both products. the people were
sadly disheartened; but in their ex-
tremity and having little else but their
land left, they gradually began plant
ing other cereals, vegetables, deciduous
fruits olives and other specialties !;
by slow steps, it is true,
but with such fattering results
that today the earlier products are
among the least, except as to orange
groves, which recovered moro readily
from the scourge through systematic
end scientific treatment. Lowlands
that were held good only for meadows,
and giving poor returns at that, have
since been drained ard now produce
wonderful yields of the finest vegetables.
The famous Gospel swamps," or
peat lands, lying between Santa
Ana and Anaheim landing, have
been reclaimed and now produce

years ago, is now a veritable vegetable
garden, with immense dairy farms and
creameries as adjuncts. The lands have
been drained. and splendid houses have
been built among the former peat bogs,
until one who has not visited the vicn-
ity for few years would be loet, for
nothing scarcely remains to remind one
of the former duck ponds and slough
grass, cane brakes and willow clumps.
The whistling of the ducks, the whirr of
wings of wild fowl, have been succeeded
by the cackle of the barn yard fowl. The
scene has completely changed.

The Development of Silver Mines and
Coal Fields.
The Pellegrin and Silverado silver
mining districts are important interests
of Orange county, and an old prospector
informed the writer that the hills in
eastern Orange county had not been
fairly prospected, and expressed the be-
lief that other valuable silver mines
would yet be discovered. For some
reason, capital has never ventured into

Another Family Row.

Mrs. Emily Tarantino, is a respectable
lady who resides on Market street. In
an adjoining house resides Mrs. Chas.
Wosmus. The children of both families
have been quarrelng for many months,
and the matter came TO a stand still last
Wednesday night. Mrs. Tarantino, when
the children of the neighbor in menti n
bothered her, demanded that they be
kept in their own yard. This aroused
the wrath Of Mrs. WoSmus, who in turn
logan abusing the lady making the de
mand. and called her some very vile
names. AS result Mrs WOsmus was
arrested on the charge of using insulting
language. This morning the case came up
before Judge Devine, and proved to be
quite interesting, the witnesses becoming
excited as did also the defendant, who, in
the presence of the judge, called the
plaintiff a harsh name. She was fined

gagged in the livery business at Austin.
They were married in the bay window
of the east parlor at the CressOn residence,
which was beautifully decorated with

An Attorneys Trouble.

Main plaza was the scene of much eX-
citement this morning about l o'clock,
caused from combat which occurred be-
tween one Mamie Hill, an inmate of a
diSreputable house across the San Pedro,
and John Brooks" a very prominent
young attorney from Hallettsville, who
came to San Antonio to have good time.
1t seems that Brooks took this woman
out for hack ride and the two became
intoxicated. While on Main plaza Mamie
had some difficulty with a hack driver,
and the fight, as above stated, took place.
In the wrangle she used some very vulgar
language and Officer O'ConnOr arrested
both parties The woman sent in plea
of guilty to the recorder and was fined 81.
The attorney pleaded guilty also and was
assessed s. for his outing.

JOINT INSTALLATION.
Commander Parker Duly Installs the OFF,
GERS of the G. A. II. and w. II. g.

There was a large turnout Of the
members Of Wallace T. Zines Post No.
l42, G. A. r., and their families, of the
Woman's Relief Corps and the Sons OF
Veterans at G. A. r. hall on Monday
evening. The officers Of the G. A. r.
and w. r. G. were duly installed in the
coy hall of the latter organization by
State Commander Parker Of the G. A.
r. The grizzly old veterans, men who
never tlinched when under fire, were
timid and bashful as love lorn swains
in their teens, but the ladies acquitted
themselves nobly; they always do.
After the joint installation, Commander
Parker was called on for a speech and
he responded. He gave the newly in
stalled officers good advice and related
his own army experience in manner
that interested every one within reach
of his voice. In response to loud calls
Senator Houlton, of Elk River, talked
to 1.-THE boys.' Then supper was an
nounced, and it was not a regulation
army supper either. After supper
and be it remembered no one present
was permitted to leave the tables until
the cravings of the elmer man. were
thoroughly satistied-more speech-mak
ing, vocal and instrumental music fol-
lowed, and everybody seemed to be ''at
home' and happy. 1t was thoroughly
democratic affair and there was de-
lightful absence of formality. The old
soldiers know how to enjoy themselves
and entertain their guests.
Among the visitors and guests from
abroad were the following members of
the Elk River Post: Commander Par
ker, Comrades Houlton, Parker, La
favor, Tourtillotte, Trumble, Heebner,
Eaton and Kicker.
