History of Orange County, California : with biographical sketches of the leading men and women of the county who have been identified with its earliest growth and development from the early days to the present . th and a mile east of Talbert. In partnership, also, with his two sons, Walter andTom. Mr. Gisler bought from F. D. Plavan, in 1919, a handsome block of ninety-nineacres, for which they paid $50,000. He has since built a large farmhouse, and has sunkthree ten-inch wells and four seven-inch wells, installed a pumping plant and built atank house, thus adding greatly to the improvements on the home place—improvementsin which he can take the more pride since they are the fruit of his own toil. At first Mr. Gisler kept cows and went in for dairying, but as soon as he got hisland clear he continued the raising of sugar beets, a knowledge of which he had acquiredin Ventura County. There was then no sugar factory, except the one at Los Alamitos,and his first four crops were shipped up to Oxnard. He has seen the several beet sugarfactories built at Huntington Beach and Santa Ana, and he now sells to both the HollySugar Corporation at Huntington Beach and the Southern California Sugar Company. ^.
