* At it's peak, the Prohoroff Poultry Farm had about 2 million chickens on 557 acres [0.87 sq. mile], laying 7 million eggs annually [1600 dozen/day], selling 11 million pounds of manure each month, and was one of the largest egg ranches in the world. Terenty Prohoroff moved to San Marcos in 1924 from Arizona and started this business in 1945 with 250 chickens. Terenty died in 1976. His sons John, Morris, and Jacob ran the farm. When the business failed they sold to 3 land developers, who sold 304 acres [55%] to the state to build a university — CSUSM founded in 1989. — Poultry production profited plucky Prohoroffs, by Vincent Nicholas Rossi, San Diego Union-Tribune.

70% of American Jumper- Maksimist- Molokans live in the area shown in the aerial photo above and have to breathe the dirty air. A few homes of families of Molokan-Jumper descent may have been burned. These are most likely in the north San Diego County area. If anyone knows a family that lost their home, please report.
