The Crops Are Started and the
Farmers Jubilant.
A Large Yield Of Grain in the
County Now Assured.
Cahuspga VIII Keep Up It's Reputation
for Early Shipments of vogeta-
bles-Dispatchos From Neigh
boring Towns.

Itcommenced to rain gently Tuesday
night and general downpour kept up
all night, much to the qualification of
the merchants and business men OF the
city, who remembered the general hard
times of last year caused by dry sea-
son. The farmers are particularly jubi-
liant. for rain to them means prosperity.
They have patiently waited for down
pour for month or more, realizing that
without it their crops would start only
to be burned by the heat OF the suns
rays.
The producers of the Cahuenga dis
trict are elated. Their section ia noted
all over the country for producing early
vegetables. and the rain to them means
extensive shipments to supply the de-
mands OF the eastern markets. Ca
huengs also produces the finest lemons
iu tho state. and the rain OF yesterday
will give new life to the lemon trees and
insure q bounteous crop.
Around Downsy, the great grain CEN
ter OF the county, the farmers have
built up great expectations on account
Of the shower. Last season the grain
crop was worry light, hardly paying the
cost of harvest, but yesterdays rain is
indicative OF full granaries and extern
sive shipmsnts.
The rain in the city has given new
