BAD ROADS.
Business men OF this city and those who are
compelled to travel over the roads Oh TINS
county have Just reason for complaint Ine
thoroughfares are in a disgraceiul condition,
and 1t is source of annoyance, ana IN some
cases dangerous to doso. -
Especially is this true of the Anaheim roau.
This is one OF the most Travelled roads IN tne
county, and many dollars worth OF TRACE Is
turned away daily from this city for its neglect.
II the supervisors could put idtue IN moos os
money into caring for the thoroughfares OF
this county 1t would be better for all concerneu'

many OF the walnuts down, and its effects are
still felt in the heated atmosphere. The wealth.
er has been verv warm for the past few days.
but is moderating some now.
The gathering of the prune crop is nearly
completed, and the returns to the producer Will
be highly satisfactory. Many OF the orcnaIo
lists took care of their own prunes this year. 40
Many walnut growers are already gathering
this years crop, and all seem to be well satis'
fed. The crop is an average one, and the quar-
ity and size of the nuts excellent

100 900 gallons of wine will be made IN Or
grapes viii be shipped out.
The beet crop is abodt all shipped. The re.
turns from this crop are not yet al IN, put az
this time it is quite safe to say that the Deet
growers will receive upwards Of $4,000 Tor
this seasons crop. They are all encouraged,
and next year will see much larger area
planted to sugar beets.
The corn fields are busy places these days, as
all hands are hard at WORK taking care OF the
large crop. The yield of corn this year Will be
above the average, although the acreage pianteu
is not as extensive as in former years
Harvesting of grain is about finished. me
yield for the county for the year 93 is a triHe 3
less than 1,000, 900 sacks, 100000 of which Is
suitable for brewing purposes, and which iound
market IN Germany. There are yet iour
threshing crews at work on the san Joaquin
ranch, but these will finish carly next week.
Orange county has had very prosperous
