Lemons are produced principally in southern California, where most of the crop is grown along the foothills on the western side of the Coast Range. Limes in the United States are grown commercially only in the southern tip of Florida and adjoining islands and keys. Grapefruit (pomelo) is grown in Florida, where the fruit attains excellent flavor. The industry is of increasing impor- tance in California. Olives are grown mostly in southern California, west of the Coast Range, in the Great Valley, and in the valleys opening into San Francisco Bay. The com- mercial production of Persian (English) walnuts in the United States is practically confined as yet to California and western Oregon. The production of almonds centers in Contra CoBta County, Cal., and extends up both the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. The commercial orange crop of the United States is practically confined to California and Florida. California has nearly two-thirds of the trees and produced in 1909 about three-fourths of the crop. There are a number of long-established orange orchards in the lower Mississippi delta in Louisiana and in Arizona. ().
