RECEIPTS FOR DECEMBER, 1898.
The following shows the business of
the Office for the month of December,
THE SOLDIERS HOME.
Beautiful Resting Place for the veter-
ans of the War.

A Beautiful Resting Place for the Vet err
ans of the War.
No mention of Southern California is
complete without reference to the Sol
diers' home, located near Santa Monica.
1t was only few years ago that COM
mittee visited all parts of California with
a view to the selection of q site for a
branch home.
They were besieged on all sides, but
finally settled upon the present location.
Through the magnificent donation by
Senator Jones and Mr.. Baker of 300 acres
of choice land, within four miles of the
ocean, the foundation was laid for moet
charming place.
Work was at once begun and has con-
tinued unremittingly ever since. Build
ing after building was added, built in q
picturesque style and characteristic of
the mild climate.
The congressional appropriations con-
etantly made for the soldiers homes of
the country result in the creation of ab-
solutely beautiful abiding places for the
nations defenders.
In no one of the other and older
homes of the east are the conditions
more favorable for the comfort of the
old soldiers, and the creation of place
that will be dream of beauty.
In the few short years since the estsb-
lishment of the Santa Monica branch it
has shown the generous influenced OF
climate and soil. An additional tract
was added to the original donation, so
that there are about 800 acres in the
tract. Fine water facilities we're pro.
cured, and the work of the landscape
ter. .%s
As the handsome buildings arose, one
after another, the, home was thrown
open, and the veterana began to come
to this mild and equable CLINE, until
now there are close upon 1000 members
enjoying its comforts.
1t is yet young in comparison with the
other branches, but 1t will not be many
years before it. will vie with them In
architectural and scenic beauty.
The SCARED veterans have in this
home what the others have not and
never will have, a surprisingly mild and
gentle climate in which to pass their
declining years, .s..,se ss3ss .ae.

he will have atoleast $4,000 trees, pro-
ducing 100000 pounds or more; now let
him do the rest of the figuring himself.
A more beautiful sight than large
coffee inca. with its hundreds of thou
sands OF evergreen trees, or, more cor
rectly speaking, bushes - since they
much resemble our lilac bushes in bloom
in the month OF May, and tits only for
two days-cannot be conceived. 1t re-
sembles what you would picture as 'the
field of the cloth of gold" g., white,
for 'tis as ii blanket had been spread
over all. The air is impregnated with
the deciduous aroma, like that of the
orange blossom. While "blossoming'
lasts only two days and the untold mill
ions of white petals burst forth all in
one night, as by an order from ON high,
many trees throw out blossoms at inter-
walls during the following six months,
and frequently you see trees in Novem-
ber bearing ripe berries, green ones, and
blosaoming, as if to show an exuberance
of health and vitality. The contrast of
the snow-white blossom with the pecu-
liar rich in color, dark green leaf-an
evergreen, in truth. for the leaf ia per-
ennial-is beautifully striking. The
planters' work lies in working" the
soil about the trees, digging trenches or
a large hole between them to retain the
rain. m M.
An idea of the profits OF its cultiva-
tion may be gathered from the fact that
it costs but six oentB-silver-to raise,
pick and market q pound, which ''fac-
tors" buy Of you at your fnca door
supplying bags and labor OF Ellington
(last season), SO cents: and already now.
for this season, 40 cents is fixed upon by
the planters, a clear profit Of 20 cents,
equal to, say. Is gold-clear. To-
day the same coffee is quoted in San
Francisco at 81 cents-gold-and the
difference is accounted for in freight,
tax and 'factors' profits, all OF which
the large finqueros make themselves,
by shipping their products to San Fran
cisco and Europe.

NATIONAL BANK OF CALIFORNIA
One of the Solid Moneyed Insti-
tutions of Los Angeles.
Its Conservative Management Dem
onstrated During the FURRY.
An Executive Committee Which Gives
Close Attention to Details.
DEPOSITORY interests Care
fully Guarded.

While one of the youngest OF the
banking institutions of the city, yet it
is one OF the most solid and substantial.
It's officers and directors are men OF
large experience and we'll known ability
and their careful attention to the details
OF the business and courtesy to their
patrons has built ups business of which
they justly feel proud.
Their conservative management was
we'll demonstrated during the last finan-
cial furry that visited this and other
cities on this coast by the fact that they
withstood the shock of three-days' run,
paying in coin every depositor who
called for his money, and at the end of
the disturbance had on hand more than
twice the legal reserve, and that without
having called in any of its loans.
1t has been among the first to grant
assistance to other banks, and more
than one institution owes its life and
present existence to the timely aid fur
nished them. Its executive committee
gives close attention to the details OF it's
business and examines particularly all
paper offered for discount, requiring the
best OF security in all cases, preferring
their fu0ds SHOULD remain idle rather
than make any questionable loans.
To those requiring the services OF an
institution of this kind, the Bank of
California offers its services, believing
that stability, careful attention to the
wants OF their customers and courteous
treatment to all will merit share OF
the business of this community.
The president, J. MO. Marble, is ac-
credited with being one of Los Angeles
shrewdest business men.
o. III. Churchill is it's vice-president,
a most careful and active man. W. L.
Graves, second vice-president, former
Fresno banker, who has been able to
retire from active business, is a self
made man, and A. Hadley, the cashier,
