The San Fernando Valley continued to prosper as the 1940s came to a close, evolving from a suburban hideaway into a major population center. Several landmarks that dot the landscape today are products of that era, their inception covered by the The Van Nuys News, the forerunner of the Los Angeles Daily News. This installment of the paper's Centennial series carries excerpts of select stories for 1949-1950:
...Difficulty of farming in the Valley as it becomes urbanized is reflected... for workers, particularly for 50 to pick tomatoes, and as many more to pick walnuts. (Sept. 25, 1950...
Making the money to service that debt means things like snuffling through hay fever while weeding peppers whose name Boulos doesn't know. (They're mini-bells.) Things like Montgomery scissoring the arugula just above each plant's "grow point," so it'll keep producing. And making sure, as [Heath Gamach]é is doing, that there'll be 500 stems of parsley for the customers who'll arrive tomorrow to pick up their weekly order. Next to his peppers, [Greg Boulos] stands to stretch. Discussing his work, he's both sincere and self-effacing. "We want to get more people into this ...

Well, it's been hot beyond hot, 100 degrees some days, and it's dry, bone dry. They don't even call for any rain, but that doesn't mean it's not going to rain. The old weatherman gets fooled sometimes too. Some farmers are watering their corn and tobacco, but some have no ponds to do so. If farming isn't a gamble, I'm a chinaman. Always has been, how about the 1930s, the dust bowl, the drought all over the USA. For Dinwiddie County, not one single ear of corn was raised from 1930 to 1934. I've heard the old folks talk about it many, many a time, talking about hard times. Believe me, we just don't know how bad it was, you would have to have lived through it. Father's Day was hot, but we headed to the lake in front of our house, swimming, diving and playing in the water, everyone had a go...
