and from the good state of our health, wo j ■ 'J' j a always a source of pleasure to us to 
I be able to chmriiolc the establishment 
of new industries in this Stale, which, 
more than nil others, requires industry in 
legitimate channels to develop its resour¬

enbunced wlnn we can record that this 
industry is not, and cannot bo protitubly 
prosoculeil in more than otie or two states 
nf America, other than our own, that it 
has long and earnestly been desired by 
many of our farmers, ns it opium up a new

comparatively usuIchb, and entirely pvolit- 
less.

we now give to our readers. In one 
department of their business they use 
hugely of eaudiud citrus fruits, and this 
led them some t wo years ago, to commence 
experiments with California grreu fruit, 
with the conviction that it could be 
preserved equal to the imported. \V r e enu 
now honestly assert, and samples ul our 
office will convince the most skeptical, that 
success has crowned their earnest efforts, 
and for our patron* of Southern California, 
we heartily thanked them, Indeed we 
That we have succeeded, is patent from 
the fact that a number of wellfco do families 
have moved herefrom the East, reported

in bringing them here.
