Outlook For the Growing Crop and
Prices.
In summing up the conditions OF
the growing crop it may be said that
they are at this date very favorable
fo. a satisfactory yield. It must be
taken into consideration, however,
that it is yet two months before
large part cf the crop can mature
and be ASSURED: hence, it is pure
guess work 70 count upon the number
OF bales Of c3t,on to be secured and
predicate ps:ocs upon such an esti-

rapidly forging ahead as an ideal home
place and considerable industrial enter

recently by strong syndicates who are
by the best of improvements convert
ing the park into one of the most
attractive and iedeal suburbs of Los

erected and already erected are SUBJ
stantial and slightly and the population
represents the refined and cultured ele-
ments, and only those who enjoy clean
associations are attracted by it's in-
ducementS.
New Bank Open
The establishment of the Bank of
Huntington Park now makes it possible
for those owning lots to build their
homes, and all throughout the park new

manent character. The new school
house will be located within 500 feet of
