| This is not the fact OF the case, al
though the crop will not be full one
| by any means: but on account OF the
new orchards coming into bearing each
wear the light crop will not be noticed
as much as 1t would be otherwise Riv-
erside has marketed about 1000 carloads
| of oranges this season, and there are
many more to go forward yet Not
more than two seasons in the past Will
exceed the output of this season.
| The cash returns for the crop of this
year are also very satisfactory. The ma
vels amounted to about 1900 carloads
which sold at an average price of about
| $3.50 per acre, making total for the
crop of about sS25, 900. The remainder OF
the crop will probably increase this in
come to over $1,000,000.
The prospects are good for full crop
| next season, in which case Riverside Will
make 2500 carloads of navels and 1900
carloads of seedlings, Mediterranean
! Sweets and other varieties, and If prices
| are what they ought to be, and the east
| ern markets are not flooded with for
eign fruits, as they are liable to be under
| the present low tariff. or even II they are
| as good as they are this season, the in
| come of the Riverside fruit growers will
next season be nearly $4,000, ,000 provid-
ing no colds come along to curtail the
marketable crop. Two such crops would
put Riverside county on its feet again,
to say nothing of the prosperous times
that would come to other sections Of
Southern California. Nothing but an
, extraordinary cold wave or an extraor-
dinary large importation of oranges
from foreign countries could change this
program.
The total orange crop raised in the
Riverside valley during the past sew
enteen years would fill nearly 10000 cars,
and would make train, OF cars reaching
from La Grande station in Los Angeles
to San Bernardino via Pasadena. thence
to Riverside, down to Orange. and thence
to within five miles of La Grande sta
ton in Los angeles again. making an
orange loop over a track 1872 miles in
, length.
Give US a cent pound tariff on citrus
fruits and the future would be bright in
Gods own country-Southern Califor-
mia.
CORONA-SOUTH RIVERSIDE
During the year 1885 the South River
side Land and Water company pur-
chased several thousand acres Of land
at the mouth of the Temescal valley on
the slope just south Of the Santa Ana
river. A water supply was procured
from Temescal creek, also from artesian
wells and other developments in the
Temescal valley, until a water supply
has been obtained for about 5000 acres
of land. South Riverside-the Circle
City was laid off, the acreage proper
ty was largely planted to orange, lem
on and other fruits. These orchards are
| now coming into good bearing and the
output is very satisfactory. The lemon
orchards, which are very extensive, are
exceptionally vigorous, and the lemons
grown here command good prices. The

In 1892 the Redlands Electric Light and
Power company was formed to utilizt

waters of that creek were put through a
pipe under about 450-foot pressure
and the electricity is now used by day {,

On the 10Th day of February the South
ern California Power company was in
corporated. The principal stockholders
in this company were Henry Fisher Of
Pittsburg, Pa, and H. H. Sinclair of the
Redlands Electric Light and Power COM
pany. This new company has good
financial backing. The capital stock is
81, 900 900. The company proposes to util-
ize the water power of the Santa Ana
river under 100 feet pressure. This
immense power will be transmitted to
any market that may need it, including
the city of Los Angeles, and it is pro-
posed to have the works so completed
that the power may be delivered in this
city on the first of January, 1898.
MINING
The desert north of the mountains ard
the hills east of old Grayback are full of
gold and silver which are being discov-

COUNTY DIVISION
Five years ago Riverside got permis-
sion from the legislature toset up new
county government on its own hook
taking with it nearly onethird of the
wealth and population of San Bernar-
dino county, and yet, Notwithstanding
this fact, that county today contains
population of 26,S75, as against 25,497 in
1890. before Riverside withdrew.
San Bernardino county has been con-
sidered the empire county of the state.
II has within Its" borders the elements
of wealth, and before the close of the
present decade. before the close of the
present century-its population Will
reach very near the $4,000 mark, and It's

owners of this 1000 acres of land to sup
piy them with water on basis of one
inch to five acres for the sum of 500 per
acre. they to give him their notes, Sc
cured by mortgages on their lands, the
notes and mortgages to be placed in es-
crow. to be delivered to Mr.. Gage when
the canal was completed with sufficient
water therein to fill these contracts. The
notes drew per cent interest and were
due in five years The lands mortgaged
for 500 per acre were then slow sale at
s5 per acre.
With these notes to the extent of $780,
O00, secured by conditional mortgages
placed in escrow as basis OF credit, MT.
Gage secured the money to buiid the
canal, delivered the water according to
contract, the notes were paid ana the
mortgages were Cancelled, and the 50 land
became worth from $3.50 an acre upward,
and Is now mostly covered with bearing
orange orchards.
Mr.. Gage failed to get the water on his
desert section in the time required by
law and other parties homesteaded the
section, and for eight or ten years Mr..
Gage has been fighting for that section,
and about year ago he secured United
States patent to the same.
At a later date Mr.. Gage purchas sed
the lands above the Arlington tract and
extended his canal across the arroyo
down the valley, covering all that fine
tract of land, large portion of which
has been planted to orchards for six
years This tract Is known as Airing
ton Heights.
About six or seven years ago Mr.. Gage
went to England and formed the Riv-
erside Trust company Qimited), to which
company he sold his property-canal and
lands-subject to the water rights al
ready sold from the canal to the owners
Of the 1900 acres above the arroyo. Mr..
Gage received enough money on this sale
to clear himself from debt. and retained
large interest in the company, taking
the position of managing director.
Under his management the largest ma
vel orange orchard in the wOrld-12OO
acres-was planted. This orchard is now
six years old and the trees are coming
into fair bearing. 1t is receiving good
care, is entirely free from frost during
the coldest cold waves, and within the
next five years should furnish 1000 car
loads of the best of oranges for the mar
ket.
About four years ago Mr. Gage had a
misunderstanding with his company and
resigned the position Of managing di-
rector.
The Gage water supply is abundant.
Last season was a dry one, being the
third of a series of dry years, and yet
the Gage canal had all the water de-
sired for use of its customers, and had
several artes sian wells which were not un :
capped during the season. as the water
was not needed.
The Riverside valley has been visited
by several cold waves during the past
few years. and yet no damage to speak

county out of portions OF san Berhar-
dino and San Diego counties. There-
fore as a county Riverside has had Out a
brief existence; but the name OF RIVER
| side had won a reputation as paradise
for citrus fruits which was almost world
wide before the county of Riverside was
seriously considered.
Fruit growing is the leading Industry
| of Riverside valley. Irrigation is ap-
solutely essential here to the cultivation
| of the soil. and without irrigation there
can be no crops. Hence review OF the
irrigation system is essential to proper
understanding of the progress OF the peo-
pie and the development of the resources
| of the valley.
There are two irrigation systems in the
valley-the Riverside Water company
and the Gage canal.
The first attempt at the construction
| of an irrigation system in Southern CAL
ifornia on a large scale was made at
Riverside in 1S71-if we except perhaps
the Anaheim canal, which was after
| wards abandoned for new system con-
structed on higher grounds.

DR.. Craig and his son, Scipio, now

the early settlers at Riverside and
opened the first hotel in the settlement,
which hotel was afterwards destroyed
| by fire.
Riverside originally covered only por-
ton of the Rubidoux rancho. To the
south of this ranch was a strip of gov
ernment land which was open to set
| tlement. The strip was mile wide and
three miles long. This land was soon
| brought under the canal system.
The canal was completed to the town
site in the summer of 1871 at cost of
about $50, 900.
The first citrus trees were planted in

at cost of 25 cents a barrel.
One orange tree thus planted has a
history. The doctor took great pains in
planting this one tree. He dug hole
about ten feet in diameter and three
feet deep He filled this hole with al
ternate layers of bones gathered from
the plains and loose soil until it was
full. In the center of this prepared soil
he planted Seeding orange tree and
watered it carefully and freely. Four
