Climnio Awarded. The splendid chromo we offer ed to the party first correctly pronouncing the longest word in the world was won by our friend and subscriber, Mr. W. Ueisen lieimer. This is a matter of congratu lation to the whole community, as we ha,d mailed a copy of the paper containing the word to G. Cleveland, Esq, and A. D.

Well done Mr. Geisenmeimor Pkkciw IllrtoH. The News and Courier of the 4th iust has a well written arti cle on the Pickens Hi ties, com monly known as "the Boy Com pany" of South Carolina.

Whittier, Cal., July 11, '04. Editor "The People,'' Dear Sir: Noting' your re quest for letters, I wiil write you a few lines in regard to this country. California is made up of mountains and valleys. The soil in this section is sandy along the rivers, and out from the river, it i$ a heavy black clay soil, very rich, that will grow anything if you will give it water aud work. We raise a great variety of grain here, and It grows to per fection, wheat, oats, corn, and barley. . Also all the different kinds of vegetables grow here the year round. We raise two and three crops a year without any fertilizer, the land being rich enough without it. The land must be well irriga ted, and as soon as it is dry enough, we plow aud plant. Some kind of crops must be ir rigated two or three times. Our winters are one long, green sea son. Everything looks lovely here during the winter months, all the beautiful flowers being in bloom, and the grasses green. The winter is the season in which all the different kinds of vegetables are raised for the eastern markets. Alfalfa is rais* ed vtjry extensivaly for hay, ^pd it is cut six or seven times a Jjear. It makes line hay, an<l will keep stock fat withovt grain. .? Labor is high, $1 f>0 to $2.50 per day being paid for ordinary labor, they furnishing their own board and lodging. Carpenters are paid f>0 to &J1.50 per day Living is higher here than in the East, but it is in proportion to other things. , We get better prices for our produce than you do, and other things are more equal. This is a beautiful valley, with its fine orange and lemon proves, and splendid cnglish walnut ranches. The walnuts pay the best as they are less expensive to raise, and are not perishable fruit, and always command j^oou prices. We irrigate them once, plow once, and harrow two or three times, so you see that it. requires little work to raise tliem. Whan they arc ready to gath er, the hulls open, anil the nuts drop out on tlie ground. They are then picked l>.v the sack at LIT) cts. per sack holding ;">() to 00 pounds. They are then washed by machinery, put in trays and uried in t he sun about t hree days. They are then passed through a grades to take out the small nuts, sulphured and sacked, and are ready for sale. The price is based on the September market, and the nuts are gathered in October and November. Many owners of walnut ranches clear annually as much as $-00. per acre. The price per acre is $1,000 and within a short time the same land will bring $2,000 easily. We have anothei source jf in come that I had almost forgot ten to mention, and that is, the oil wells. They bring lots of money to the men who own them. Oil was discovered here only a few years ago, and now the hills are dotted all over with derricks. Whittier lies on a gentle slope 011 the hill skle below the oil wells and faces South and West. Sixteen years ago it was a wild mustard patch, and now we have fenr thousand inhabitants, and a car line ruuning to Los Angelos. Now, Mr. Editor, come out and pay us a visit. We will bo glad to sliow you over this beautiful valley which flows with milk and honey, a valley of sunshine, fruit and flowers: (Jod's beauti ful lanil.
