              <text>Photograph article dated February 16, 1957 partially reads, "Agriculture in the San Fernando Valley is making a last stand against the encroachment of homes and industry. In 1945, at the close of World War II, the San Fernando and Santa Clara Valleys had approximately 61,300 acres devoted to plant crops, citrus trees and the raising of vegetables. According to the Los Angeles County Agriculture Commissioner's office, that figure has now been whittled down to 35,300 acres for both areas, with the bulk of acreage lying within the confines of the San Fernando Valley. More than one-half of the 220 square miles of the San Fernando Valley now comprise closely knit communities." Photograph caption reads, "Valley homes crowd farms - Herd of sheep graze in Topanga Canyon while carpenters hammer together frames of homes for new subdivision. Scene is typical throughout San Fernando Valley where agriculture is fast giving way to homes and industry." See images 00045955; 00047561; 00153290; 00045952 for all photos in this series.</text>
