HELP A MONARCHIf you find a Monarch butterfly washed
up on the shore after a storm it may still
be alive. Lift it out of the damp sand
and put it on your sweater, allowing it
to dry off. A water color brush is useful
for removing sand from its wings.
When dry, it will take flight.

The Salinas Valley, one of the largest and most pro-ductive agricultural centers in the world, has longbeen known as the “Salad Bowl of the World.”
Now, with the world-class National SteinbeckCenter, dedicated to the work of native son JohnSteinbeck in full operation, Salinas has also com-manded a prominent position in local tourism as theheart of “Steinbeck Country.”
HistorySmall tribes of Native Americans made their
home in the Salinas area for centuries beforeSpanish soldiers and missionaries arrived to builda presidio at Monterey and missions at Carmel,Soledad, San Juan Bautista and the San AntonioValley.
Under Spanish rule, settlements developedaround the Central Coast’s missions, but the valleyremained largely undeveloped until Mexico over-threw its Spanish rulers and began granting landsin Alta California to Mexican families.
Among the ranchos granted to settlers by theMexican government after Mexico seceded fromSpain in 1822 were Sausal and Nacional. SalinasCity was born on adjoining parts of both of theseranchos after California had become part of theUnited States.
During the early years of the Gold Rush, JamesBryant Hill purchased Rancho Nacional andbecame a pioneer wheat grower. In 1854, he wasnamed postmaster of the Salinas post office,although there was no town of that name yet.
In 1867, Alberto Trescony, who had bought theinn from Howe, sold it and 160 acres to AlansonRiker and William Jackson. Forming a partnershipwith cattle rancher Eugene Sherwood, they laidout a city a half-mile square. Knowing the rail-road’s importance in getting the agricultural prod-ucts of the area to market, Sherwood offeredSouthern Pacific Railroad free acreage for right-of-

way and a depot, which opened in 1872. That wasthe year Salinas City became the MontereyCounty seat. Two years later it was incorporated asa charter city.
As agricultural enterprise in the Salinas Valleymoved from hides and tallow to grains, sugarbeets and beans, and after World War I, to the“green gold” of lettuce, artichokes and broccoli,Salinas became one of the wealthiest cities percapita in the United States.
The Boronda Adobe History Center, located inSalinas, is the headquarters of the MontereyCounty Historical Society. In addition to the oldeststanding adobe in the Salinas Valley, a QueenAnne style house designed by area architectWilliam H. Weeks and the Lagunita School thatSteinbeck wrote about in his story “The Red Pony”are located on the property.
TodayOur comfortable climate, abundant natural resourcesand diverse population provide a solid economic andcultural environment that is becoming increasinglypopular with tourists. The Salinas Valley is the focusof a number of unique attractions, annual events andhistorical landmarks. Each year, the California RodeoSalinas ranks in the top 20 of nearly 800 NorthAmerican rodeos sanctioned by the ProfessionalRodeo Cowboys Association. Oldtown Salinas, locat-ed in the city’s center, is composed of beautifullydesigned buildings constructed in the late 1800’sand early 1900’s.
