Santa Clara’s Fruitfulness

According to statistics, Santa Clara County—this county—stands first in number of fruit-trees of the counties in California, and in number of plum- and prune-trees and in apricots and cherries. For the year 1910, according to the United States census reports, supplemented by authentic state reports, the total number of orchard-bearing trees is given as 5,043,766. Besides these there are 18,023 tropical fruit-trees and 48,398 nut-bearing trees. And there are many more items which show the wonderful productivity of the "garden spot of the state."
