LEAGUES OF LAND.
The Broad Acres of a Los An
geles Ranchero.
Mr. Richard Garvey's Posses
sions Along the San Gabriel.
Hill Lands. Mesa Lands, Moist and
Semi-Moist Lands Galore.
A Scheme of Subdivision That Will Place
Tine Lands on the Market at Very
Moderate Rates.
A Herald man yesterday made a long
trip through a part of the San Gabriel
valley behind a good team of Mr. Rich
ard Garvey's horses. This amiable
ranchero met the scribe at Alhambra
and drove him south to his home on
the mesa over the bottom lands of the
Potrero Grande. It is needless to say
anything about the fine appearance of
things in charming Alhambra, with its
splendid orchards, beautiful homes,
schools, churches, hotels and business
places. As the team headed south,
Ramona lay to the right, with the
Sisters' substantial school crowning a
commanding height at the edge of the
town. The road lay directly through
the fine orange orchard and vineyard of
T. B. Bishop, Esq., and soon passing out
of these runs directly through Mr. Gar
vey's lands. These begin about a mile
east of Ramona and stretch easterly
Borne two and one-half miles, while
they run quite over the crest of the low
line of hills to the south, and overlook
the Laguna on the other side. Here
Mr. Garvey has 2,000 acres of splendid
land. It is rolling, hill or mesa, and is
all fertile to a high degree. This land
•was acquired by Mr. Garvey from the
state direct. It is an exceedingly fine
body of land. The mesa is rich soil,
capable of producing any fruit crop, and
needing water only for citrus culture.
Pears, prunes and" all the deciduous
varieties of fruit will flourish here with
out water. It is only about thirty feet
to fine supplies of well water, and a well
with a strong windmill will irrigate
twenty acres with the greatest ease.
Into the hills Mr. Garvey has driven a
tunnel and got a good stream of water for
use at his own house and for his stock.
He intends to take out a couple of
hundred inches of water at a dis
tant point and pipe it to this tract,
which he will cut up and put on the
market soon. There are homes here for
a hundred families, who may become
independent by putting out small fruit
farms on this land. Mr. Garvey is at
present using the ranch for general
farming purposes, and has some fine
horses, cattle and hogs on the place.
He sold $5,000 worth of cattle off the
ranches the other day, and is all the
time selling fine farm horses and road
sters. At several points, and particu
larly around his home, Mr. Garvey has
planted a great many groves of eucalyp
tus trees, which have made a fine growth
and are now magnificent trees. His ex
ample ought to be followed by all who
own land in this part of the state.
Below Mr. Garvey's house lies another
of his ranches. This is a part of the old
frant known as the Potrero Grande,
his is unlike the tract just described,
being all moist or semi-moist land.
There are 1,100 acres of this land, lying
all in one body. It begins at Hon. L. J.
Rose's great stock farm Rosemeade, and
stretches away to the river near the old
mission. The north portion of this
tract where it joins Rosemeade is the
best walnut land in the county. The
south part of it is moist land fitted for
the growth of alfalfa, corn, potatoes and
such crops. This 1,100 acres in one
body would make a magnificent dairy
ranch, with the semi-moist portion
of it devoted to walnuts. A good busi
ness man could make interest on about
a quarter of a million dollars in this
tract, and be independent for life. The
soil is very rich. No part of it needs
irrigation for any purpose, the water
lying below the surface at about from
six to twenty feet. There is corn on
the land now that runs at ten to twenty
feet high. Other parts are planted to
potatoes, and the crop of tubers is as
fine as the sun shines on. In other
fields fine, fat stock was knee deep in
the rich grasses of this bottom land. A
stream of water from the San Gabriel as
clear as crystal runs at all times through
the lands.
The road lay past the old mission,
where nearly a century and a quarter
ago the mission fathers founded their
first mission in the valley, some years
before the San Gabriel mission proper
■was thought of. The remains of the
houses still remain to mark this inter
esting historic spot. Below this lies
the gap where the river breaks between
the hills, and the roads divide here, one
going to the Ranchito and Whittier
and the other turning up stream to
wards El Monte. The former abode
of the Temple family, so powerful once
in business and political circles in Los
Angeles is on the road just after crossing
the bridge. Here are some of the finest
alfalfa fields and walnut groves in the
country. Mr. Durfy has a notably fine
walnut orchard on the very bank of the
San Gabriel. All along here the droop
ing boughs of the trees have tc be
propped with 50 or 100 poles to the tree
to prevent the weight of the crop from
breaking the tree to pieces.
Here the road again enters the pos
sessions of Mr. Garvey. This is the
Felipe Lugo ranch, which back from the
road adjoins the Potrero Grande. The
soil is much the same as that of the
other ranch. It is mostly moist land,
a little being semi-moist. The corn,
potato, beans and sweet potato crops
come up to the road here, and all look
in excellent condition. A good deal oi
this land has been sold oft" in small
farms and all the settlers are doing well.
Remember crops were never known to
fail on these moist lands and fertile
soils. Nor has there ever been a boom
there. Twenty years ago these lands
were selling on their merits and the
showing of their products, for about the
same price they are held at today. Old
timers all know the esteem in
which these rich bottom lands
have always been held. No experienced
farmer has ever changed his mind as to
their intrinsic value. Mr. Wm. H.
Freer has been in the country a long
time and has farmed all the time. He
is a shrewd man, and the other day he
went to Mr. Garvey and paid him $10,
--000 gold coin for ninety acres of these
very bottom lands. An industrious man
can make a living off of ten acres of it.
Here is a history related by Mr. Garvey:
Some years ago a man came to his house
and asked for work. He was of slight
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 25, 1890.
build and puny stature. Mr. Garvey
gave him work, and found him very in
dustrious and handy. He took a fancy
to him, and as he had a very large fam
ily he wanted to help him along. So he
urged him to enter on a lot of twelve
acres in the Felipe Lugo, which
he told the man he might
have for $125 an acre and pay
when he would. The man was very
reluctant, as he hadjnot a dollar, and did
not see his way to make payments on
the land. But by pressing arguments he
was induced to make the trial. Mr.
Garvey helped him with a little lumber
for a small cottage and a cow or two for
the pastures. That is three years ago
laßt spring. Now the man has his home,
a pretty cottage, with good outbuildings,
such as are needed in this mild climate,
two or three cows, a horse, chickens, a
nice bearing orchard of peaches, apples,
berries and what-not, a good many wal
nut trees just beginning to bear —and he
does not owe any man a cent. He has
paid for his land, and paid interest on
all he owed. He did odd jobs about while
his trees were growing. He raised corn,
potatoes and beans between his rows of
trees, and now he is independent. His
children go to a good school half a mile
from their home, and the family is
happy. Near here are the celebrated
Lewis hop yards, noted in this section
for many years. As there are several
fine breweries here the crop meets ready
sale.
All along here are comfortable houses,
where many walnut orchards are bear
ing or growing up. The land between
the rows is all used for corn, potatoes
or beans until the trees grow. This land
will all produce two crops a year. Pota
toes may be planted in April to be dug
in the end of June, and a crop of corn
may follow.
Another great resource of the ranchos
Potrero Grande and Felipe Lugo is the
body of living water that rises from
them. At one point near the old mis
sion a stream of 1,000 inches or more is
running to waste from the Potrero
Grande. It is never less than that in
volume. A ditch run from this point to
the bridge east of El Monte, six or seven
miles through the moist bottoms, would
develop 5,000 inches of water. One day
this will be piped to Whittier, Norwalk
and beyond. There is the Laguna ranch
of 11,000 acres just beyond the gap, that
might be irrigated from this source. As
water is worth $1,000 to $1,500 an inch
on the land, there is a pretty fortune in
this supply.
The Detroit company referred to in
the Herald often of late, have a big
force of men taking out water above
Monte bridge from 200 acres of moist land,
bought recently from Mr. Joe Workman,
of Boyle Heights. This is to be taken
to Whittier and beyond.
Mr. Garvey is certainly doing a good
thing for the country in cutting up these
splendid lands into small farms and put
ting them on the market at very reason
able prices. At $125 an acre they are
offered at, just about 25 per cent, of
their intrinsic value. They ought to
sell very rapidly at that price and add
a couple of hundred families to the pop
ulation of this eection. One crop of
potatoes next June would pay for the
land.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
The Directors Talk About Mr. Morti
mer's Report—Donations.
The report of British Vice-Consul
Mortimer made to her gracious majesty's
government, as to the commercial and
real estate status in Southern California,
as a sample of ill-advised utterances is,
in the language of the day, a "corker,"
If Mr. Mortimer has any enemies they
have the proverbial opportunity for
revenge offered by any fellow's enemy
who writes a book. This report was the
first thing considered by the directois of
the chamber of commerce yesterday.
Tlie chamber did not adopt any of its
resolutions on the matter, but it will
very soon, and the resolutions will re
semble the vice-consul's report in that
they will be corkers. As one director
put it, "Mr. Mortimer's report shows
him to be grossly ignorant of this coun
try, or grossly prejudiced against it; in
either case he is incompetent to hold his
office."
The matter was referred to a special
committee of Messrs. Book, Wells and
Toler, with instructions to report at the
next meeting.
Mr. Mortimer was knocked out in
about fifteen minutes of discussion,
when a letter from Mr. S. J. Mathes, of
the California on Wheels exhibit was
read referring to the proposed exhibit
|at Chicago. It was the opinion of the
directors that Mr. Mathes was just the
j man to make the affair a success, but no
action could be taken until some state
ment was received from the committee
appointed some time ago on the matter,
and it was requested that the report be
given at the next meeting.
Miss Stoneman, a sister of General
Stoneman, was appointed a special agent
of the chamber with authority to lec
ture at the Chautamjua Assembly in New
York on Southern California.
The general meeting of the chamber,
which was to have been held tomorrow,
to take action regarding Southern Cali
fornia's showing at the world's fair, was
postponed until August 2d.
Donations to the chamber of com
merce exhibit yesterday were as follows:
Judge J. B. Banning, Wilmington,
sunflowers; O. G. Wenger, Fruitland,
peaches weighing three-fourths pound
each; W. E. Kellogg, Monrovia, dried
apricots; Major Nolton, Vernon, four
jars of fruit for the permanent
exhibit; N. Hayden, peaches, ap
ples, nectarines, French prunes, Damson
plums, ligs and apricots; J. Anion, Co
vina, apricots; Thomas Shooter, Los
Angeles, Indian mortar and pestal, one
wildcat skin, one lynx skin, one deer
skin; Lacy & Rowland, Puente Oil
Company, asphaltum residuum; Len
Thompson, four bear skins.
Flowers were received from O. H.
Churchill, magnolia; Miss Lucy Sisson,
Russian sunflower; Mrs. Coronall, Miss
G. Williamson, Mrs. C. W. Taylor, East
Side Park, Mrs. McDonald.
Fruit Prices.
A carload of California fruit—Bart
lett pears, German prunes, peaches,
peach plums and apricots—was sold in
New York city at auction on July 16th
by E. L. Goodsell. Bartlett pears
brought from $3.05 to $4.05 per box;
peach plums returned from $2.75 to
$3.85; peaches ranged from $1.65 to
$2.60 per box; apricots brought from
$1.10 to $2.10; German prunes, from
$2.95 to $3.55 per box ; Bradshaw plums
sold from $4.15 to $5.10.
That tired feeling is entirely overcome by
Hood's Sarsuparilla, which creates un appetite,
rouses the liver, cures headache, and gives re
newed strength and vigor to the whole body.
Be sure to get Hood's Sarsaparilla, which is
peculiar to itself. Sold by all druggists.

Coroner Weldon held an inquest
at Redondo Beach yesterday upon
the body of D. J. Burke, a native of Lou
isiana, 45 years of age, who died in the
calaboose at that place on Wednesday
night. From the testimony adduced at
the official inquiry into the cause of
Burkes death, it was learned that he
had been living at Redondo for over a
year past, and had been employed at
Inglewood, since the completion of the
narrow-gauge railroad at tliat place. On
Tuesday evening last at (3:30 o'clock he
called at the saloon of James Murphy,
in an intoxicated condition, apparently,
and after drinking some beer fell down.
He was picked up and after sitting in a
chair for a few minutes, got up and
walked away, asking the saloon man to
keep $13, which he handed to him, until
he returned. About 5 o'clock Wednes
day morning Burke returned in
a very shaky condition and received
the money. He then went away,
but in the evening fell down in front of
the saloon, and was arrested by Consta
ble Foyer, who took him to jail on the
charge of drunkenness.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, however,
he became unconscious, and Dr. A.
Whitehorn was hastily summoned; but
in spite of the physician's restoratives
and remedies Burke never rallied, and
died shortly after the arrival of the doc
tor.
A post mortem examination of the
body showed that the deceased was suf
fering from fatty degeneration of the
heart; but the jury returned a verdict
to the effect that Burkes death was
caused by "the ell'ects of a recent de
bauch."
BALLONA HARBOR.
Its Improvement Quietly Proceeding
Successfully.
Admiral James Campbell, general
manager of the Ballona Harbor and Im
provement Company, was in the city
yesterday. A great deal was heard of
Ballona in the boom time, and not very
much lately, but the company, under
Mr. Campbell's guidance, has prosecuted
the work of harbor-making vigorously,
though quietly. A basin 1,800 feet long
by 400 feet wide has been bulkheaded by
Mr. Campbell, and work on the channel
will soon be commenced. It is proposed
eventually to have a depth oi thirty feet
over a large extent.
"We are all right," said Mr. Camp
bell. "Look at San Pedro and compare
results. Work was commenced making
a new harbor there with the govern-
I ment's aid twenty years ago, when they
had eighteen inches of water on the bar.
Since then, after expending nearly
$800,000, they have secured a depth of
eighteen feet. Now at Ballona only two
years ago we commenced work and had
fifteen feet of sand on our bar above low
water mark. By private enterprise
alone we have at high tide ten feet of
water on the bar."

THE ELECTRIC ROAD.
Probability of Its Extension to Santa
Monica.
The rumor was about yesterday that
the electric road would be built this
year from Pico Heights to Santa Monica,
and back to this city by Maple avenue.
The rumor was not authenticated. It is
said, however, that if the property-own
ers along the proposed line will pay two
thirds of the cost the road will be built,
which is very probably so.
The management think that the road
in the city will open for business about
September Ist.
