Abstract: The genuine lover of the human family rejoices greatly when a new avenue is opened for the cultivation of the best ambitions of women. Chief among the many advantages resulting from the discovery of gold in California is that cosmopolitan principle in society which has tended to develop in women, as well as men, the power to lead and direct others in almost all industrial enterprises; especially in the important line of fruit production. In that, women have shown their fitness to a remarkable degree.
