LETTER FROM CALIFORNIA
Pomona. al. July 26. III

Ou4Ouas Oa4s q " @Oi 4v4 g.
Dear Editor
From letters that have been re
ceived your tourist is emboldened
to give another leaf from hel
Journal.
Your readers may be interested
in hearing about the orange crop
and how it is taken care OF.
Pomona is the center Of the largest
orange belt in the world. Twenty
years ago there was shipped from
here ten carloads and that seemed
wonderful to the people at that time.
This seasons crop has beat all rec
Ords. From a territory three by
five miles rs square miles) there
has been from the present crop 1896
carloads and $4,000, 900 handed
over to the growers, and the valen-
cias are now only being picked.
The above space is not all in oranges.
Deduct the cities Of Pomona, North
Pomona, Claremont, Lordsbury and
San Dimas, and the territory that
is in lemons, grapes, alfalfa, walnuts,
small fruits, vegetables and consid-
cradle unimproved land and you
have left com paratively small part
Of the earth's crust, which is made
to yield in one season, from one
product alone 100000. The
four banks Of Pomona for sometime
took on deposit on an average Of
$50, 1000 a day.
1t is said that from the San Jose
Hills, of which one of Pomona s
beautiful parks, Ganesha, is a part,
one looks down upon the most pro-
ductive territory to the square foot
of any place in the world.
Now how is the crop harvested?
The picking season for Navels be-
gins in November. The owners can
pick and haul their own if they like.
The packing houses are owned
and managed by the growers who
have organized themselves into a !
Ranchmen's Association and these
houses have their gangs of men
{ Mexican, Japanese or Chinese and
teames which gather and haul the
fruit to the packing houses in boxes
where they are dumped into a shall
low tank Of water where by machin-
cry they are whirled around and
around for they come in very dusty,
and automatically rolled along on
little revolving discs with clean
water trickling over them, then raised
On to revolving steps and carried up
and along through a little trough to
he drying sheds. From these they
ire let down into boxes and con-
7eyed to the sorting room.
Here they are dumped on to an
Inclined tray where they are again
Milford chronicle., 1911-08-04

raised automatically on to revolv-
! ing stairway and carried along a
trough between two rows Of sorters,
who throw out the imperfect ones as
they roll along to automatic scales
which determines each growers pro-
duction then into a trough where
they find an opening suited to their
size and fall into bin in front Of
women and girls who very dexter
ously wrap them in paper and pack
them in the crates for shipment.
This is the only handling by hand
after picking from the trees.
Men in the same building make
the crates, nail up and wire the filed
ones and label them.
They are shipped TO selling agents
throughout the country and the
money comes back to be divided
among the ranchmen according to
the record of the scales.
l am told that with the perfect
system of management there is very
little loss and high prices for the
product are maintained.
In this short article I cannot give
details of cultivation and irrigation
Of the orange ranch nor of fumigatiOn
Of the trees every two years by put
ting canvass tents over the trees and
using cyanide of potassium and sui
phuric acid. Many valuable birds
that roost in the trees are killed in
this way. There are men who have
the tents and make it their business
to fumigate groves.
Respectfully yours,

LINCOLN CITY NOTES.

We note with amusement the allusion
of Paul Pry to Lincoln City. In last
week Chronicle he had something to say
on the subject Lincoln has the making
of large city and if its resources are
| properly handled it should become one
of the largest in this State. The village
draws its trade from a large scope Of
country, is easily accessible to the CITY
markets, is in the centre of a valuable
fruit belt, and the land in this vicinity is
of the very best, and well adapted to truck
and small fruits. The town is a centre
for the berry market, and although the
crop has been failure this year, our en-.
ergetic farmers ore setting thousands of
acres at the present. Last, but by no
means least, we have a fine public school.
George w Jester and wife, of Whining
ton, visited relatives and friends in this
town last week
Mrs. Frank Webb, of Harrisburg, Pa,
is visiting her parents.
Mr.. and Mrs. George H. Johnson have
been on the sick list. Both are much
improved at this time, however.
f. SOuthard is in a Philadelphia
hospital, where he is undergoing an op-
Grafton.
The Sunday School of this town pic
nicked at Slaughter Beach last Thursday
and very enjoyable day was spent.
Although there have been several cases
of sickness during the hot weather, we
are glad to report that none of them have !
resulted fatally.
Will Donovan lost a valuable horse last |
week. The same day he purchased an
other from Wilber Deputy for a fancy
price,
! "A. E. Clendaniel has received another |
large contract, it being the warehouse for !
the Torsch Company at Milford. The |
building is to be S0x10O feet and of con- /
crete blocks. Two large machines will |
be in operation in mixing the concrete
and the job will be rushed as fast as poss-
ible.
