Description
Photograph of orange groves among the foothills near Los Angeles, ca.1920. Rows of citrus trees line the right of the picture, while an irrigation canal runs across the center, at left. A white streak runs across the left of the background, apparently fumigating tents spread out to dry. In the distance, the foliage-dotted hillside appears.
Photoprint reads: "Orange groves among the foothills near Los Angeles, Calif. White streak at left is fumigating tents spread out to dry. Irrigation canal runs across left center of photo."
