Flatteriug Prospects Among tho Beet
Men-Personals.
CHINO. July 18.-Already the smoke
stacks Of the huge sugar factory belch
forth continuous volume of smoke, and
an occasional whirr shows that the force
Of mechanics engaged in shaping things
for the campaign are working out the
different engines and other machinery.
Everything is in ship-shape, and soon
the great buildings will resemble moth
ing so much as monster bee hives, and
the roar OF machinery will commence
and echo over the Chino valley without
cessation day and night for at least six
months.
Next Monday, June Oath, the farmers
will begin to haul their bsets to the re-
ceiving sheds, and from that time on
their daily delivery will average 800
tons. 1t will take some three or four
days to get a sufficient supply on hand
to warrant the factory in starting up,
and Superintendent Hamilton says they
will open the season next Wednesday
without fail.
Careful estimates place the crop now
waiting to be harvested on the Chino
ranch at not less than $4,000 tons. and
analyses of sample lots by Messrs. Gird,
Nordhoff and Sims show that the per-
ceDtage Of sugar will be unprecedentedly
high.
The streets present a very lively ap-
pearance now and every room which
can possibly be utilized for sleeping
purposes is in use.
