Many who have been out of town for some time made the concert an opportunity to Erect other out-of-town friends and, following the fnusio, there was more than the usual Jot of informal entertaining at tea places, altogether making yesterday rgala one for leisure folk.

Then, oo, probably the fervor of enthusiasm following the brilliant programme inspired many to prolong their enjoyment by discussing the Kftemoon at tete-a-tete teas. Mrs. Frederick Sharon, who lias feen away for some time, attended her first concert this season, sharing DAN EDWARDS, financier of Reno, Is at the St Francis. He is here in the Interests of the French Government, and is commissioned to purchase thousands of horses for General Joffre's armies.

His father has presented him with an citrus fruit ranch on the banks of the Murray river, Australia's greatest waterway.

Tye is here to study up-to-date and Improved methods of citrus growing, and to examine modern packing-house plants. "All the world looks to California for the latest Ideas in citrus growing," he remarked. "Most of our fruit Is exported to the British markets, though Australia does not produce sufficient for its own use. I am purchasing packing-house machinery and a plant for field work here, and will put In some spare time in following the citrus fruit course at the University of California. "At our ranch in the State of Victoria we have planted some thousand acres to oltrus fruits oranges, lemons and mandarins.

The Australian Government re- cently opened up large irrigated citrus areas along the Murray river. We Australians are rather proud of the Murray river. For one thing, It never goes dry, which Is quite exceptionally good behavior for an Australian river. The Murray is navigable for several hundreds of miles, and it carries such a flood of water that irrigation takes place by gravitation alone. We make a specialty of growing the navel orange, which we have imported from your State of California and which Is doing exceptionally well under the Southern Cross." S.
