He re ported yesterday that since he placed them in the exhibit he had heard from two parties who had seen them, asking about his next year's crop with a view to its purchase.

The Climate of the Sacramento Valley and of Southern California Not Identical. Citrus Fruits in the North. Last year the State Board of Trade d< - eided to issue a pamphlet on the subject '■ of the "Fruit Industries of California," | and contributions were asked from the various organizations represented In the board. The pamphlet was issued a short time ago. It Mars the name of General N. P. Cbipman,' who compiled it. A number of copies were sent to the Chandler of Commerce, and with them [ came the announcement that a large I edition with plates would soon be issued and that if the pamphlet contained any errors the compiler would be glad to correct them. The book does contain several very serious errors, all of them injurious to the southern part of the State, especially so in view of the fact that the pamphlet emanates from the State Board of Trade, which is supposed to be an organization free from any form of sectional prejudice. In a letter addressed to (General Chip man, Major E. W. Jones, the president of the chamber, calls attention to these I errors, which he regards as entirely acci : dental on the part of the compiler. He says: Your tables of the average and lowest | temperatures at given points are valu ; able, but they are not full enough to en i able the inquirer to settle the question as to the adaptability of a climate for citrus fruit culture. Citrus trees endure ; a greater degree of cold in BOrne locations I than in otheis which show ahout the i same average and extremes, because, j mainly if not altogether, in the former 1 the great dryness of the atmosphere renders the effect of cold less injurious 1 than in the latter. Now statistics show that the tempera ! tureof our valley betweenJLos Angeles and ! the sea has a milder average and a i higher lowest degree than like situations |at the north ; and it is certain that in that region citrus fruits are suc cessfully raised, for hundreds of carloads are shipped thence at a profit, while none are raised in similar situa tions at the north. In fact, oranges art grown here on the very borders of the j ocean at Wilmington and at Long Beach, and, I understand, profitably. This is i the region of middle temperature, though j with a moist climate as compared to the I interior —a climate similar in respect j to degree of moisture to the Sacramento valley. Again, at Riverside, where your tables ! show a lower degree of temperature, by one degree, than in the Sacramento val ley, the most successful citrus culture is | carried on. The greater success there is : not attributable to the superior adapta bility of the soil over other parts of the ; territory lying between the sea and that point, and not to the superiority of the climate to that of many other parts of the same territory, but to the superior intelligence and care exercised iv the pursuit. The climate permits and pro ! tects the growth of citrus fruits by its I extreme dryness, a characteristic of all | the interior of Southern California, and ! in which it is probably not paralleled by any citrus-growing district at the north. The fact that citrus fruits ripen earlier ;in the northern part of the State than iin the southern does not ' establish its I superiority to, or even its equality ; with, the southern part of the State for their profitable culture, and I still less does it prove a similarity jof climate. Tbe same fact exists with ; regard to Florida, and yet no one will I claim that the climates are identical, or j very similar. The lowest degree of ter n perature for the Sacramento valley is shown to be 18 degrees. So low a de ! gree of temperature in Florida, 1 be* I lieve, almost always results disastrously ito citrus culture .in that State. Degrees of cold of even less intensity on the part iof the weather there usually do great j damage, and such weather is experi t enced every few years. In Southern California the tempera ture has never yet gone so low as to seri ously affect the citrus crop. In view of the above facts, it seems that the statement on page 8, in the last , paragraph before the change of subject, that "there is no practical difference as Ito climate in Southern and Northern | California at the same elevation and in 1 I the same relative position to the ocean," and also on page 16, last paragraph, j that "the climate is generally alike fa ' vorable in both regions," are hardly yet I proven, and if this is the case the other | statements therein may be misleading. Under "Tree ami vine planting," on • page IS. if the report- would show in the I tables the acreage of vines and trees re i j ported by our Chamber of Commerce for . Los Angeles county, it would be more ' ! satisfactory to us. The authority can be stated in a marginal note, if neces sary. The tables will be referred to > many times while the text is examined i but once. [ In other respects the report is most admirable, and both the State Board ' and the whole State are greatly indebted ' to you for it. Very respectfully yours, E. W. Jones. r 1 Buggy robes and blankets at Foy's harness . shop, 217 Los Angeles street. THE COUNCIL. A Number of Mutters At tended to Yesterday. The First Street (Irade Again Postponed. Numerous Ordinances for the New Sewer System Adopted. The Mayor on the Census Returns—l ports of Committees Acted Upon. Reports of Officers. The Council met yesterday morning. President Frankenfield in the chair, and Messrs. Bonsall, Shafer, Brown, Van Dusen, Hamilton, Summerland, Wirsch ing and McLain present. The City Auditor returned without his approval the demand of S. K. Adams for painting at the old city hall. Mr. Summerland moved that the de mand be passed over the veto of the Auditor. A short discussion followed, in which it was stated that Mr. Adams had de dined to carry out his part of an agree ; ment whereby all the workmen were to be paid. The veto was sustained by a vote of X ! to 1. j Mayor Hazard sent in the following ! communication: There are many inquiries from the census bureau regarding the financial , condition and other matters of our city I that will he of vital importance to us in the coming census report. The annual I reports of the city officers have not been published since IKSO, and tbe informa tion required is not easily obtainable, As Congress has made no provisions 1 for obtaining this information, but will rely on such information as is furnished by the various municipal officials, some i provision should be made forthwith whereby this information should be fur nished the department, otherwise the j reports will not contain the facts in re gard to the growth and development of the city so essential to us. The blank financial inquiries from the bureau have been in the hands of the Auditor for months, and he informs me that he has been and is still unable to do anything in the matter, and we can not afford to let this matter go by de fault. An appropriation of $5o ought to j be ample. Referred to the special committee on annual reports. The reports of the City Engineer and Street Superintendent were read and adopted. The Street Superintendent asked that the City Clerk be instructed to adver j tise for bids for pipe to be put in tbe Arroyo de Los Reyes storm drain. So I ordered. The reports of the City Clerk, City I Tax Collector, Water Overseer, Chief of I Police and City Assessor, upon the col- I lection of moneys, were read and referred : to the finance committee. . The City Assessor reported that he had appointed A. W. Ellis to fill the po- I sitionof F. 11. Teele, who had gone back to the Auditor's. Appointment confirmed. I A communication was received from the j library board asking that it he allowed to place signs on the electric light poles in front of the city hall, so that the at i tention of strangers might be called to the fact that the library was up stairs. On motion of Mr. Van Dusenthe request was granted. An ordinance granting permission to property owners to grade a part of Ward street was read and adopted. An ordinance preventing persons from playing drums, etc., on the streets, or from singing on the streets without first having obtained a permit was read and adopted. A contract with Friek Bros, to con struct a portion of zanja No. 0 was read and approved. The City Attorney advised that the Street Superintendent be instructed to remove all obstructions caused by the dummy road on Belmont avenue and Temple street. Adopted. An ordinance creating a free employ ment bureau was read and rejected by I a vote of 5 ayes to 4 noes, it requiring j six votes to adopt an ordinance. The report of the Board of Public ; Works as published in the Hehald was : read and adopted. The board recommended that a grade of 1 in 10 be adopted for First street, '■ bet ween Flower and Broadway, as this I would not interfere if in the future a ! tunnel is decided upon. Received, and \ the matter postponed for a week. The report of the finance committee j was read and adopted. I Mr. Van Dusen moved that AY. W. ! Smith be employed by the Street Super intendent for 30 days at $3 per day. Smith was in the employ of the city when he was hurt by the falling of a plank. The motion was carried. Mr. McLain moved that Mr. Foster be allowed to place a grating in his side walk. Carried. A petition for an electric light at west lake park was denied. The report of the Board of Public Works upon the First-street grade was as follows: The Board respectfully states, by uay of In formatlou to the Council, that there are three distinct issues made up in thin question. First—Those of the property owners between I Broadway and Flower street, some of whom prefer a traffic grade, but nearly all of whom I have signed mi agreement or petition for c grade of about one in ten feel. Second—Those of the property owners along the line of First street, from Flower to the west city limits, being nearly three miles of frontage, who want, und are willing to pay by assessment for ii traffic grade of one in twenty live feet. Third—The property-owners interested in preserving a traffic grade on Pearl street, which j would be destroyed by anything else than a I traflic grade on First street, because of the till necessary at the intersection of First and Pearl streets, as suggested by the ordinance recently passed by the I Souncil. Thus we see nearly three miles of frontage on First street, together with the frontage on Pearl Street, arrayed against anything else than h traffic grade on First street, 'ibis amount of frontage, compared with that of three or four blocks, is so overwhelming that it would seem to preclude any other than a traffic grade if any ! work or change of grade Is contemplated west !of Flower street. The hoard recognizes the tact that a traflic grade is a necessity, and that it is imperatively demanded, through the first bill, by the very large and rapidly-growing district west of it." Many of the property-owners ask ing for a grade of one In ten admit this, but claim that, if attempted at this time, It Would simply result in nothing being done whatever. The property-owners from Broadway to Flower street have, for several years, been industriously at work to get something done, and the present compromise grade of one in ten is the best re sults of their labors. The hoard is of the opin ion that both projects can he proceeded with without interfering with each other. Afternoon Session. Tbe protest of Mrs. E. Easton against the assessment for the grading of the street in front of her house came up and the Street Superintendent was instructed to correct the assessment, so that Mrs. Eastern's property should be excepted. The land committee recommended that a committee be appointed to con sider the proposition to turn Reservoir No. 4 into a park. Adopted, and Messrs. McLain, Wirsching and Bonsall appointed as the committee. The committee recommended that a quit claim deed be givtt to Mrs. M. J. Maddigan. Adopted. The building committee reported that the cost of fitting up the police offices would be $153. Referred to the Police Commission. The supply committee recommended that a quantity of supplies be allowed various city officers. proposals for furnishing sewer pipe were received from the nan Francisco Sewer Pipe Company, California Sewer Pipe Company, and Pacific Clay Manu facturing Company; for excavating and laving sewers from Mcßean it Vincent. M. McDonald, Frank Walker, J. R. Hunter, Prick Bros., j. J. Mahoney. J. K. White. F. W. Barron, F. Osgoodby, J. 1.. Mansfield, D. Mulrain, A. M. Austin. Referred to the sewer com mittee. The Board of Health requested that the report of the Health Officer he printed. So ordered. ' The request of the Police Commission to increase the salaries of the detectives, was referred to the finance committee. Mr. Summerland moved that the City Attorney draft an ordinance repealing the retrenchment ordinance. Lost by a vote of 7 to 2. Tl.r report of the park commissioners asking as to the disposition of the grounds about the city hall, was referred to the building committee. The request of the park board that a number of men employed by it be paid was referred hack to the board for inftrr mation. The request of the lire board for more tire alarm boxes was referred to the com mittee on supplies. The special committee on graved asked that the City Clerk advertise for bids for furnishing a gravel bed. Received and filed. Ordinances of intention to construct a ! number oi sewers, as published a week 1 ago in the HBBALD, were read and I adopted. The sewer committee recommended that the City Engineer be instructed to I prepare ordinances for the sewering of the Temple-street district. Adopted. The plans and specifications for the brick work of the central interceptor were read and adopted.
