Orange and Lemon Acreage-Ample Water Supply
Town of Rialto Has Growing Population with All
Advantages of Larger Cities in Educational and
Other Conveniences and Comforts of Life

ment of orange groves. OF late years,
however. lemons have been given more
attention and many orchards are COM
ing into bearing, while large acreage
is being planted.
The Increase of the duty on lemons
has given the citrus fruit grower an
additional incentive to raise lemons
When the grower obtains the full bene-
fit of the increase of Ia cents per
pound, the result will be distinctly
noticeable Tho market is SO good,
however, for this fruit, that even with
out the benefit of a duty on lemons
of that amount. the grower is assured
of a good profit.
Many of the planters now coming into
the district are making assurance douD-
ly sure of getting full returns by plant
ing both oranges and lemons. a plan
that is generally considered as wise.
Grapefruit too, offers the grower VINO
wants variety, a remarkably good field.
The grapefruit groves of the Rialto
district have given astoniShingly good
returns. and consequently more acre
age is being planted.
SOME RESULTS
Land around Rialto for citrus fruit
growing can De purchased from 500 10
$3.50 an acre with water rights, but this

placed on bearing orange groves. y
value of $2500 an acre has been placed
on some of the older groves. One grove
of twenty acres, held at $4,000, last
year yielded 12,411 boxes of fruit. One
seasons crop, therefore, gives an al
most unbelievable percentage on the
valuation OF the grove.
As a consequence OF this condition
the country surrounding Rialto is oe-
ing rapidly developed. Expert orange
and lemon growers, attracted by the
assurance of a perfect water supply
and a rich soil where the citrus trult
growing mas passed the experimental
stage, are purchasing land and plant
ing their own groves. Salaried men,
looking to the future, are buying young
planted groves and are having them
cared for until they reach maturity,
with the expectation of then taking
charge and making their homes on
their land while eastern investors are
locating in the district in large num-
bers.
Rialto's future is dependent upon the
citrus fruit industry; in the Ratio
section the growing of this fruit, un-
hampered By pests and lack Of water
seems dependent only upon the indus
try of the growers. With such pros
pect the year of 1911 holds Il bright
promise for the little town under the
shadow of the mountains and the Ter
tile lands surrounding it.

RIALTO FRUIT
The Rialto section Is perhaps not
so we'll known as Redlands and River
side, but that fact has not kept it
from making a record in the shipment
of fruit. A total of 1850 carloads, rep
resenting $1,027. .600.75, was shipped last
season from the six Rialto packing
houses. The town has the record of
being the second largest citrus fruit
shipping point between Los Angeles
and San Bernardino, which brings it
to the front when it is remembered that
there are number of places which
are generally considered very heavy
shipping points in that district
Rialto fruit has a deserved record
for keeping, due, according to many, to
the quality of the soil. which is IA silt
and decomposed granite, and the fact
that the absence OF scale In the district
does not necessitate the washing of
the fruit before packing.
The Rialto sweet variety of
oranges also has a record of its own,
having brought the highest and second
highest prices in the auction of last
year This season the citrus fruit crop
will probably reach the mark of 1900
cars. The holiday trade this season
was a feature and many carloads were
shipped late in November and early in
December for the Christmas trade. The
oranges ripened early, showed excel
lent color and were remarkably sweet.
LEMON CULTURE
While the growing of lemons has not
been exactly neglected. as shown by
the record of 200 carloads shipped last
season, the greater number of growers
have put their attention to the develop
Los Angeles herald., 1910-12-25

BY an immense concrete system of
conduits and pipes the Fontana Water
company conducts the water from
Lytle creek to the points where it is
distributed over the citrus fruit lands.
Water boxes are placed at the head
of every twenty acres. which divert
the water to the various tracts. Miles
of base line have been constructed
and more miles of laterals, in order to
thor ughly cover every point. The
company has now established its own
plant for the manufacture of cement
piping and in future will build its own
lines for extensions.
The Fontana company has n guar
anteed water title, something that few
other companies can claim, and with
its perfect gravity system for distrbu-
tion has a complete system unparal-
leled in the west.
RANCH WORK
One Of the most interesting trips to
be taken in the district is that to the

Rialto has all of the ordinary busi-
nesses to cater to the public, such as
grocery stores, meat markets, hotels,
etc. In addition there is n telephone
exchange. an electric light company,
the LytIe Creek Improvement com
pany and the Fontana Development

The home offices Of the Fontana De-
TelOpment company are at Rialto, but
the company also maintains other of
fees at Los Angeles and San Bernar-
dino, The company has a 16,000-acre
ranch in the district, d part of which
has been subdivided into tracts for
orange and lemon growing, and with
ample water rights for the land it is
rapidly settling a large area with the
best class of hortculturSts.

The town is lighted by electric lights,
the residents showing their public
spirit by subscribing the necessary
amount. The current for local use is
supplied by the Edison Electric COM
pany which has a power station on
Lytle creek north of the town. Do
mcstic water is furnished at a reason
able rate. Summed up, Rialto has as
many advantages as the average town
of its size, with many superior induce
ments for the resident.
DEVELOPMENT WORK
The Fontana Development company
and subsidiary companies. one of
which is the Fontana Water company,
has been prominent in the work of
developing the resources of the district,
owing to the large holdings Of the com
pany. The Fontana Water company
Is doing some of the most practical
conservation work in the west in
handling the water which it is taking
from Lytle creek
That this conservation work is hav-
ing remarkable results is shown by
the records of last summer, when the
flow was 1900 miners inches during
the driest portion Of the season, where
before it had been much less. The
work is designed to conserve the flow
of water, bringing it down the canyon
just at the time it is most needed.
Lytle creek, the stream which fur
nishes the water, drains a basin of
ffty-four miles in Lytle Creek canyon.
