RIVERA
Approaching Rivera from all direc-
tions walnut orchards and orange
groves take the place of the diversified
farming Of the Downey neighborhood.
Located ten miles southeast from Los
Angeles, on the San Diego coast line
branch of the Santa Fe, Rivera is noted
as the shipping point Of the famous Los
Nietos and Ranchito walnut growing
section. 1t is the business and social
center of one of the richest agricultural
sections of the Pacific coast, taking ev-
erything into consideration.
The business of theS place is repre-
sented by two general merchandise
stores, a blacksmith and wagon shop,
harness maker, drug store, lumber yard
livery and feed stable, two hotels, bar
Der shop, shoe repair shop, carpenter
and builder, painter and house decora-
tor, Santa Fe railway station, post, tel
ephone and telegraph offices, Citrus
Fruit Growers association, justice court
and constable.
The Los Nietos and Ranchito Walnut
Growers association, with headquarters
in this place, was formed for the pur-
pose of promoting the interests of the
walnut growers of this section and mar
keting their crops. Walnut growers
only are eligible to membership, and
each member has but one vote. The as
sociation has 1856 members, representing

IRRIGATION
Water for irrigation is taken from the
two rivers bounding this territory on tho
east and west and is distributed through
a network Of bitches by several incor-
porated companies, to witt Arroyo
Ditch and Water company, Agricultural
Ditch company and Agricultural Ditch
company No. 2. The franchises and i'm
provements of these corporations are
owned and managed by the proprietors
Of the farms irrigated by them.
IMPROVEMENTS
During the past year more new resi-
dences have been built in Downey and
immediate vicinity than in the ten years
preceding, all Of which display good
taste in their construction and dlsposi-
tion on the part of their owners to enjoy
the comfort and conveniences Of cosy
and attractive homes.
COUNTY FARM
The Los Angeles county farm, stu
ated two miles west of Downey, Is be-
yond doubt the most favorably locat-
ed and best improved for all practical
purposes Of any beneficiary institution
of the kind in the state. A description
of this magnificent piece of public prop
erty Is beyond the limit of this article.
But 1t Is a point which will well repay
all who choose to make q visit there.
Under the liberal appropriations Of the
board Of supervisors and the able man.
agenent Of the superintendent, DR.. e. l..
Rurdick, the wild pasture lands over
grown with weeds and native grasses,
have been transformed into luxuriant
gardens and orchards. Pigs, poultry and
COWS are kept in large numbers sufficient
to supply all the eggs. butter and milk
for the place and for the county hos
pital at Los Angeles. Pigs, with beef
now and then, with an abundance of
fruit and vegetables of all kinds, add
largely to the food supply of this place
and the hospital referred to.
In addition to this Is the revenue re-

This corporation and it's predecessor,
the old association, has been handling
the bulk of the walnut crop of this Sec
tion since 1887.
In addition to the crops handled by
this association a few growers of this
section market their crops independent
of the association. Their shipments for
the present season in the aggregate
amounted to 1000 sacks.
The advantages of cooperation as
carried out under the rules of this cor
poration give the best practical illus
tration of what may be gained by we'll
regulated system Of pooling interests in
any branch of agriculture. AS each
member has but one vote, the interest
of the snlallest grower is as fully pro-
tected as that Of the largest.

RARE EMBROIDERY.
Exquisite Lace Made of the Fiber Of
the Aloe,


h Aloe.
Perhaps the most accomplished de-
signer and needlewoman in the world is
Nine. st. George, who has charge of the
classes in the government art school
Of embroidery at Vienna, says an ex-
change. This institution is the glory
Of the Austrian capital. The entire
course of instruction, which is free,
lasts five years, but many pupils leave
after two or three years, especially la
dies who do not intend to make art
work a profession and are satisfied with
knowing the rudiments of either lace
work or art embroidery, for every year
has it's special course. Every years
course has its special room and in
structress and the pupils cannot go
from one to the other until the year
expires. The pupils of the last years
course were busily mending a magni-
icent canopy, the work of Empress
Maria Theresa. An idea may be formed
of the magnitude of the task when it
is said that ten girls under Nine. st.
Georges Superintendent had been
working at it for ten years already,
and she expected it would take two
years more to complete it. Every kind
of embroidery, including Partisan, In
dian, japanese, Turkish, etc., is done
here, and the visitor is astonished to
see some beautiful samples of the man
duty" or spiders web, made by the
Guarini women of Paraguay and rare
ly seen in Europe. This lace is made
of the fiber Of alae and is SO fine that it
is made inside the huts, with the door
shut, so that not the least breath of
wind can touch it.

There is a young lady in this city who
has peculiarities. She has a habit Of
walking on her feet and neve takes
a step without moving. When quite
young She contracted the habit of eat
ing, which grew upon her until now
everything she eats goes to her stom-
ach, and every time she drinks she
swallows. It is noticed that the longer
she lives the older she grows and that
her form is much larger than when a

has shown a disposition to speak, until
now it is impossible for her to speak
without saying something. She wears
a No. 4 shoe and when she puts It on

A Dangerous LctharEy.
The fOrerunner of a train of evils.
which too often eliminate fatally, is in
activity or lethargy of the kidneys. Not
only is Brights disease, diabetes, gravel.
or some other dangerous integral disease
of the organs themselves to be appre-
hended, but dropsical diffusions from tho

traceable to the non-removal from the
blood by the kidneys of certain impure
ties. Hostctter's Stomach Bitters depu-
rates the blood, renders the kidneys
active and prevents their disease.
