WALNUTS AND GRAPES
Two Tremendous Crops in the Ana
helm District


ANAHEIM, June 27.-The walnut crop
of this season will prove to be mortgage
litter. If disposed of at anything like rea-
sonable prices it will do away with the
"blues" in many a household. The only
slip between the cup and the lip is the
dreaded Santa Ana" or desert wind. In
other years these wind storms knew their
place and kept it, and after the end of April
they disappeared for the season; but this
Is an exceptional year. If the last of the
Santa Ana storms has blown for the season
the walnut crop will simply be tremendous.
Another crop about to break the record
is the grape crop. The vines are weighted
to the ground and the grapes show hardly
any traces of the late frosts. The cutting
and gathering of the enormous crop will
afford employment to all looking for it.
A Fourth of July ball, exceeding in bril-

Anaheim will be given in the opera house.
