Experiment Leads to Purchase of
Rich Land for Rhubarb Culture

A six months experimental planting
of three acres of Burbank's crimson
winter rhubarb in the foothill district
near Monrovia has induced the Joseph
r. LOTUS company to secure plants and
to prepare the ground for forty acres
additional.
AS this plant is about the only win
ter vegetable to reach the eastern mar
ket in November and until April 1t
should create a large industry.
This new variety of rhubarb is sue
cessfully raised, notably at Ventura
and at Pomona.
Agents of the Pomona company now
in the east are organizing the market.
The raisers of winter rhubarb will en-
deavor to avoid the common California
mistake of creating a product before
thoroughly preparing a market in ad-
vance. as has happened in oranges,
melons, etc.

La SIERRA RANCHO
SELLS FOR $5OO,OOO
COMPRISES 10000 ACRES AND
is TWELVE MILES LONG
Great Tract Starts In Riverside and
Ends at Corona, Lying Along
the Santa Ana
River

RIVERSIDE, Oct. pa real estate
deal of magnitude and one of the great
est importance to this section has just
been completed in the transfer of the
La Sierra Rancho by q Los Angeles
company of which George e. Pills
bury is president, w. ]. Hole secre-
tary, and w. r. Hollingsworth 81 Co.
are selling agents.
La Sierra Rancho comprises $4,000
acres of land and is twelve miles long,
varying In width from three to four
miles. 1t begins at Jackson street In
Riverside and aligns the Santa Ana
river for twelve miles south to Corona
This vast tract of land is probably the
largest undivided area which Is adapt
ed to lemon and orange culture in all
the state of California.
An effort was made about six months
ago to subdivide the ranch and sell 1t
in small tracts. but the proposition
was not pushed and it will be offered
for the first time in tracts to suit pur-
chasers by the new company.
The price paid for the rancho is said
to be $500,000.
There is a tract of 1000 acres in one
body at Arlington which is perfectly
level and lies peculiarly well for orange
or lemon culture. At the lower end
of the valley much of the land is suit
able for alfalfa. Part of the land is
rolling hills, but practically all is ca
pable of cultivation and the soil
is as choice as any lands in,
this district. The lands have been
leased for years for dry farming pur-
poses and no attempt has been made
on any comprehensive scale to secure
the development of water on the tract.
Fine Water Flow
time since at Arlington and fine flow
of water struck at 40 feet The water
rose to within twenty eight feet of the
surface and between sixty and seven
ty-flve inches of water were developed
by pumping test. There are riparian
rights in the Santa Ana river appur-
tenant to the lands and it is believed
that no difficulty will be experienced
in developing all the water needed for
the entire tract.
The ranch lies within fifty feet Of
Magnolia avenue below Arlington, and
it is believed that the sale was hast
ened by the fact that the electric line
is to be extended from Riverside to
Corona. The fact that Chief Engineer
Pillsbury of the Huntington lines is
president of the new company con-
trolling the La Sierra Rancho lends
additional color to this supposition.
The property is divided into the
eastern, western and middle ranches
with gently rolling tracts intervening,
and it is believed that a majority of
the lands are fairly free from frost.
The east ranch contins 5000 acres, the
middle ranch 5000 and the western
ranch 5000. The western ranch is we'll
sheltered and less rolling.
The settling up Of this vast tract of
land will be an inestimable boon to
this entire valley, Arlington benefiting
in particular. Mckenzie & Pedley of
Arlington will be selling agents for the
tract and the sale @ lands will be ener-
getically pushed as soon as they are
ready for the market.

BUILDING IS ACTIVE
AT CUDAHY RANCH
NEW PURCHASERS IMPROVE
AT ONCE
Second 5oo-Acre Tract Will Be Ready
for Market by Deoember--Grad-
ing Teams Are Now ~
at Work

Continued building activity marks
the development of the Cudahy ranch
from the one-time widely stretching
acres of alfalfa and pasturage land to
closely settled community. One or
two new houses are begun each week,
as new purchasers OF one to nve-acre
tracts begin improving. The first tract
of some 500 acres has been nearly
closed out and nearly every purchaser
is improving his place.
Work of putting the next 500 acres
in shape for the market by December
is progressing rapidly. Grading teams
are busily engaged in leveling such
small elevations as exist and filling the
almost imperceptible depressions, all
ways found in a rolling gently sloping
country.
The water system for this 5oo-acre
tract is nearly in readiness to convey
the flow from the three new wells and
will be completed before the day for
opening sales.
In the last week there have been a
number OF inquiries for the property,
and three or four purchases were made
by home builders. Fleta Olive Walker
bought an acre place on Clara street.
near Wilcox avenue, for $3.50, and has
already contracted with Rancher War
rem L. Campbell to farm and improve
1t on a pro-rata basis. Campbell re-
Gently bought four acres adjoining, and
will now have five to care for, which,
If farmed along intensive lines, Will
keep him busy and return good in
come. This means of caring for the
property offers an attractive invest
ment, as an income is derived from
the share of the products. and at the
same time the land is increasing in
value with the improvements made.
Joseph r. Monroe bought one acre on
Elizabeth street, just east of Wilcox
street, for $3.50. The buyer will build
a handsome bungalow and make his
home on the Cudahy ranch.
Mrs. o. G. Thomas of Long Beach
purchased a one-acre lot on hElizabeth
street for $3.50 and will improve it.

Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-25

The Rhubarb Vegetable union will
undertake to control the crop and man
age the market through Its own SELL
ing agencies. The cost of planting is
somewhat high ($150 to 5000 an acre)
owing to the scarcity of plants and the
probable large returns from the crops.
The growers at Monrovia acres will,
in all probability, unite with the orig
inal company at Pomona in shipping
and in distributing.
The area capable OF successfully
producing Burbank's crimson variety
is limited in extent, being confined al
most wholly to certain parts OF the
foothill districts in the orange belt.
The plant is exceedingly prolific.
Burbank's estimate is $4,000 pounds to
the acre. One-third of this. yield, or
say $4,000 pounds, however, will make
very generous returns, as 1t is expected
that the eastern market can be main
tanned at about 10 cents a pound.

belt. The Southern Pacific, the Santa
F'e and the Salt Lake railroad either
cross or adjoin the ranch. In the past
two years $750,000 worth of land has
been sold in small holdings. There has
never been a default in the payment of
either principle or interest by pur-
chasers, and this fact seems to point
to the settled prosperity of Chino
ranchers. There are already over 5000
acres in small ranches, developed to
the highest point of cultivation, inter-
spersed among the lands yet on the
market. The town of Chino lies in the
center of the great ranch. 1t has
population of 1900. The second largest
beet sugar factory in Southern Califor-

payroll of $4,000 during the operating
