where perpetual sunshine and an ideal
climate make it unnecessary to consult
the physician. Pilgrims from all over
the United States in search of health
arrive daily and enjoy the balmy air and
equsbable temperature 30 necessary, in
pulmonary diseases.
A climate that affords outdoor exer.
else during all the seasons without in
jury to health il nowhere found as in
southern California. The total absence
of cold in winter and the pleasant tenn
perature in summer make this section
the ideal resort of invalids OF all classes.
1t does not only prolong the lives of
those whose health is affected, but in
many instances the pure atmosphere
and perfect temperature bring the in
validS a permanent cure, that could not
be effected under the most skillful
medical treatment.
1t is noteworthy that during the pas.
year not single case OF smallpox was
reported to the health Office; fact due
to the perfect sewerage system prevail
ing here. and the total absence of inn
pure surroundings. EpidemicH are un-
known and could not take foothold.
owing to the pure, assptic air and the
freedom from miasmata, combined with
the prepondersnce of sunshine.
According to the records of the health
Office. there were 1882 death during the
year; 71S males and 464 females. OF
these there were 1031 white, 36 Mon
golians and Is African descent. The
nativity was as follows: Foreign 351,
Los Angeles 239. Pacific coast ITO, and
Atlantic coast 4S2.
Only 27 suicides were recorded during
the year.
A conservative estimate OF the pop.
ulation of Los Angeles, based upon the
school census, places the present num-
Der OF inhabitants at $4,000. The death
rate, therefor, is 1915 per 1000.
But II cases Of typhoid and LAG cases
of diptheria were reported during the
year, and the death rate in each was re- =
msrkably small. However, these case
show an increase over the preceding
year. undou btedly due to the excep-
tional dryness Of the season.
A comparison OF the deathrate OF the
principal cities in the east will show the
climatic advantages OF Los Angeles.

The city limits of San Diego extend
north as far as Del Mar, a distance OF %
miles, embracing large area OF rugged
mountain country. There are many
interesting spots for tourists to visit
within days journey. and railroad &c
commodations are ample.
The beautiful scenery makes the San
Diego bay region one of the most attrac.
tive in the state. On long, narrow
slip that separates the bay from the
ocean has been built the largest seaside
hotel in the world. the Coronado. which
cost over $l,000.000. This seaside re-
sort is visited by tourists from evory
part OF the world. and, owing to the
equable temperature during the entire
year, it mas become famous as a health
restoring place. 1t is said that San
Diego's only rival as to climate condi-
tions is Nice in the south of France.

tional City, the terminus OF the Santa
Fe system on the Pacific coast. One OF
the leading industries. established for a
number of years, is the growing OF
olives and the manufacture OF olive oil.
Near by is Tia Juana, the gateway to
Mexico, where the boundary line passes
through the town. On the other side
is the Mexican custom house, and sew
eral companies of Mexican aoldiers are
located there.
Lying between San Diego and the San
Jacinto range Of mountains, distance
of some 40 miles, lies a country OF great
and varied resources. Gold, silver and
tin mines have been developed TO q
large extent. and almost every semi-
tropical fruit is raised there in abund-
ance.
The entire eastern portion OF the
county, situated between the San Ja-

Varied Resources.
Breeding of Fine Horses Is Made a
New Feature.
1t PRODUCES Fruits and Flowers Found
in Every SEMI Tropical Climate Wal
nut Raising on the Increase.

Orange county was segregated from
Los Angeles in 1889 and is the smallest
in Southern Caliioinis. containing only
671 square miles, or 429. .502 acres.s
Everything grown in q semi-tropical
climate flouriahes here. Oranges, rails.
ins, walnuts. deciduous fruits, corn,
barley and vegetables are the ohiei
products. Stock-raising, especially the
breeding of fine horses, ia INDUCED in
to large extent.
There are nearly 100 miles OF irriga-
tion bitches and over 1000 flowing wells.
The walnut crop last season was valued
at $125.000. although only q small pro-
portion of the walnut orchards are vet in
bearing; the apricot crop yielded $780,
600. and with the orange crop the total
receipts for fruits will be in the neigh
borhood Of $1,250.000.
From Orange comfy alone the Sante
Fe railroad hauled 100000 pounds OF
grain and l 800, 900 pounds of dried fruit,
besides other products.
In the mountains are deposits OF coal,
galena, silver, quicksilver, and other
minerals.
The climate is mild and equable. No
part OF the county under cultivation be-
ing more than twenty miles distant
from the ocean, it is constantly famed
by the sea breeze.
The county seat 10 Santa Ana, with q
population of about 10000.
Anaheim was founded as q vineyard
colony by Germans from San Francisco
some 80 years ago. 1t is the center of
q rich farming country, where products
OF every variety are raised. from oranges
to alfalfa. The irrigation systems are
complete.
Westward, between Santa Ana and
the ocean, is stretch of level country,
underlaid by ON apparently inexhaust-
ible supply OF artesian water. The chief
centers of population are Westminster
and Garden Grove. Around Westmin-
ster are the famous peat lands, where
astonishing crops of corn, vegetables
and other products are raised also fine
apples. A drainage ditch which has
been built By the county will bring
under cultivation 10000 acres more OF
this rich land. A railroad is shortly to
be built from Santa Ana to Westmin-
ster.
just southeast of this section is New
port Landing, reach5d by railroad from
Santa Ana, summer resort and ship
ping point for much lumber and pro.
duce. Coast steamers call regularly.
Between the landing and Santa Ana are
the towns of Fairview and Newport, sit
uated in fertile farming region.

What Irrigation has Done for Arid
Lands Forolbly Illustrated by the Pro-
gress of This Prosperous County.

San Bsrnardino county, the largest in
the state, furnishes q striking example
Of what may be accomplished by irriga-
tion. Most Of its vast area was an arid
plain less than 20 years ago, covered
with cacti and brush. Today it is one
Of the principal fruit growing and ship
ping centers in America. The county
has an area Of 21,172 square miles, and
until 1853 was part Of Los Angeles
county. North Of the Sierra Madre
mountains, that divide the county, is
che Mojave desert that has lately at
tracted considerable attention frora the
rich mineral deposits discovered on that
plsin.
The San Bernsrdino valley il about AZ
miles long, and its gre atest width is 80
miles.
The valley was first settled in the
year 1920. at Old San Bernardino, by the
priests OF San Gabriel mission. The
ruins of their buildings and zanjas still
remain. In 1841 colony of New Mexi-
cans was established at Aqua Mansa,
near Cotton.
In 1851 Mormon colony from Salt
Lake founded the city OF San Bernar-
dino. They laid out townsite with
streets crossing each other at right an
giles. erected sawmills in the mountains.
built houses, dug irrigation ditchea and
farmed successfully. In 1867 a majority
OF them obeyed an order Of Brigham
Young to return to Salt Lake. After
that time the town gradually assumed a
GENTLE character, until now very little
trace OF ts Mormon founders is left.
In 1877, with the advent of the rail-
road, colonies were established and a
rapid growth and develosment Of its
natural resources followed.
San Bernardino county is one of the
most prosperous in the state and its
fruit industry is increasing yearly. 1t

with magnificent system of irrigation

One OF the most important depart
ments of the municipal government Of a
growing city is the educational system.
Its demands are ever increasing as the
population augments, and the fret ques-
tion aeked by intended settlers is, "How
are your public schools?"
In no other part of the world the
citizen go much Interested in the educa-
tional institutions as in the United
States, and liberal policy of the muni-
cipal administration towards education
is always sustained by taxpayers and
citizens.
Los Angeles has many attractive
school buildings, constructed according
to the latest hygenio requirements. 1t
is expected that during the coming year
new buildings will be added, eH the
present accommodations seriously tax
the demands upon tho school-rooms.
Some classes are somewhat overcrowded.
but the incoming board of education
will be equal to the task OF furnishing
the required facilities.
The de velopment OF the comfy and
the rapid increase in the population
presented a problem of no small magni-
tude to the school authorities. How
ever, tho demands were met in q gener-
GUS and satisfactory manner and our
school system compares favorably with
any in the union.
The daily average attendance has
been 11,185, divided as follows: Kin
dergarten, GAL; primary and grammar,
$3.50; high school, 694.
1t cost the taxpayers $24S, ,s02 during
