EUCALYPTUS GROVE
IS PROFITABLE
TREES GROW TO MARKETABLE
SIZE RAPIDLY
Them by Railroads and Other
Concerns Make Planting
Worth While

Eucalyptus trees grow almost any,
where in Southern California and under
almost any conditions. 1t is one thing
to grow them and another to do so profit
ably. The common opinion is that it
only pays to plant them on waste or
cheap lands, and to only a certain extent
this is true. If you have the hills and
poor land that will produce nothing else
you can in long time get something
out of your eucalyptus trees, it is true.
However, in this country and at this
time the future demand for hard woods
of this character is so well assured and
the reward for planting and growing this
wonderful tree so certain to be a rich
one that careful selection of lands. even
though they cost high, will pay in the
end.
Rich, heavy bottom lands produce the
best timber in this as in all other trees,
and plenty Of instances prove that this
kind of, land will produce twice the tree
growth in a given time than mesa or
hill lands will produce, and the quality
Los Angeles herald., 1907-11-10
ess

twice these sizes, will very likely wink
the other eye and say, "That reminds
70 of what Mark Twain said twenty
years ago of California: That there were
two things .California was noted for
small matches and big liars"
However, your Californian who knows
his California is undisturbed by these
statements. He knows they are true.
The reasons more Californians have not
grown the tree for profit are mainly
two. One was that they did not know
its value and another was the thought
that it is a long time to wait for re-
turns This latter is not so true as 1t
looks on the face of it. Tor each sue
ceedng year has been added the tangible
selling value to the land and ones avail
able assets that can be converted into
money have been increased $50 to $lOO
per acre per annum.
Real estate may be never so dull and
still there is always money ready for
a safe investment property already Gre
ated, such as this Is.

Of the wood is higher. The writer has
in mind grove planted in heavy bottom
land three years old that has diameters
ranging from five to twelve inches ana
another grove on the mesa the same age
with only half the growth.
Another thing people should remember
is that nearness to the terminal cities is
an important factor in figuring on the
net earnings of the grove, as the rail-
roads never fail to 'get theirs wnen
they have an opportunity to do so, and
values are measured in this as In every
other product of the soil by the market
price at terminals. Bear in mind, 1t
costs as much to produce grove at one
place as at another, and one must not
overlook these facts In making their IN
vestments. 1t is gratifying to see the
amount of interest being shown in this
industry at the present time.
Productive Land Is Safe
Troublous financial times always tend
to drive the investor to the producing
land for safety, and very properly. There
is never the wild speculation In farm
lands that comes periodically In city
properties, and today shows the farmer
on Easy street" with his dollar wheat
In the middle west and his high barley
and wheat market on the coast, and he
is little interested In the financial storm
raised by the stock gamblers Of Wall
street.
The eucalyptus industry allows the city
toiler to produce safe anchor to wind
ward for the stormy day to come, while
he pursues his chosen calling In the
city, and no one should be without
piece of this kind of property, especially
If he is a Californian.

night was frustrated by force of dep
uties in the Jail who fired several
shots over the heads Of the mutineers,
and threatened to kill them if they
did not return to their cells.
After the outbreak was quelled an
investigation revealed the fact that
seven additional prisoners, confined
in the dungeon, were engaged in dig
'ging their way through the brick
foundation of the jail, expecting to
be able to tunnel to liberty.
The fourteen men who made the at
tempt to get away were locked up to-
gather in the big cell. In some man
ner they secured key to the cell
door and escaped into the run around
which is only separated from the
jail Office by light bars. They over
powered one jallor, whom they locked
up in the cell they had just left, and
were endeavoring to get through inUo
the Office, when the other deputies
were attracted BY the rfoise and turn
