WINNER OF WRESTLING
MATCH HERE GETS
$500 PURSE
(By Billy Darnley.)
Tuesday night, December 20, is the date selected by the Anaheim Athletic Club for the big wrestling match between Al Sparks and Roy Mabee, both of this city. The men are to wrestle to a finish, catch-as-catch-can, best two out of three falls for a side purse of $500 for the winner. Repairs are being made on the building, wrecked by recent winds, and by next Tuesday the arena will be ready.
Both boys have been in training daily for the last two weeks and have been putting in some strenuous licks. Mabee works out at around 7 p.m. while Sparks and his crew generally report at 5 o'clock. They are both using the club's training quarters at the arena. The match is creating no little interest. The watch will be in the nature of an attempted comeback for Mabee and if he comes through the mill with flying colors he is going after bigger game. Roy hasn't wrestled for several years but he still thinks he is good enough for any of 'em. He challenged Sparks or Bull Montana for his start, and it has fallen to te lot of te Garden Grove buclevard farmer lad to give him his initial tryout. It should be a corking match as both are strong, husky men and know the game well.
To Buy Farm Already
Equipped Good Plan
Often it is a distinct advantage when buying a farm to purchase the equipment, live stock, and materials already on the place. In this way, the United States department of agriculture points out, an income is obtained almost from the outset, which usually makes possible the operation of the farm without a loss, and thus gives the newcomer a chance to work out changes and plans and at the same time have a self-sustaining farm business.

If only the bare farm is purchased it usually takes some time to supply all the equipment and live stock and put the place on a paying basis. In the meantime overhead costs and other expenses amount to a large item. Hence the advantage that so often is gained in buying a farm that is a going concern.
Good Food Combinations And Fuel For The Body
In addition to an understanding of the five food groups, it is well to know what proportions to use of the foods in each group, the United States department of agriculture points out. As a rule, the diet will be sufficiently bulky and flavorful and will furnish the right proportions of starch, fat, and sugar for the taste of most people if the vegetables and fruits furnish about 20 per cent of the fuel; the milk, meat, eggs, and similar foods, 20 per cent; the cereal foods, 30 per cent; sweets, 10 per cent... and fats and fat foods, 20 per cent. A diet made up on these proportions will also furnish satisfactory kinds and amounts of protein, mineral substances and vitamines.

Auštrian Princess Famed For Her Practical Jokes
The Princess Pauline Metternich, who died recently at the age of 85 in Vienna, was noted for the practical jokes she played on Paris society During the reign of Napoleon III, Prince Richard Metternich, the son of Bona-ing backward and forward and keeping the air full of china, silver and glasses.
It was some time before the princess was able to reassure her badly bewildered and frightened guests and COUNTY APPLE GROWERS ORGANIZE NEW CORPORATION
Articles of incorporation for the first Apple Growers' association to be formed in Orange County have been drawn up and are being signed by five prominent apple growers, who are fostering the organization.
Growers of the Costa Mesa district, who are interested in the organization and who are to be directors of the new association, are George A. Waterman, Donald J. Dodge, W. W. Middleten, H. B. Woodrough and Lew H. Wallace.
The new association is to be organized on the same successful lines as the orange and walnut growers associations. Need for a more adequate marketing system for the Costa Mesa apples, which have already made a notable reputation for color and flavor, is said to have led to the action taken by the growers. The majority of the apple raisers of the district are expected to come into the association.
Apple Crop Is Great
More than 35,000 boxes of apples were grown in the Costa Mesa district this year. No definite system of marketing was followed by the growers, who disposed of their crops in any way that offered. Some apples were placed in cold storage but the majority were sold from stands. Practically the entire crop was sold in Orange County.
There are 520 acres of apples in bearing on the mesa at the present time, eight miles south of Santa Ana. Next year's crop should be even greater than that of this year. Adequate packing and distribution is imperative if the growers are to make a success of their growing industry, it is said.
Papers including articles of incorporation of the new association are expected to be filed within a short time. Growers on the mesa are backing the new organization and a strong association for the marketing of another Orange County product is expected to be formed.
Austrian Princess Famed For Her Practical Jokes
The Princess Pauline Metternich, who died recently at the age of 85 in Vienna, was noted for the practical jokes she played on Paris society During the reign of Napoleon III, Prince Richard Metternich, the son of Bonaparte's inveterate enemy, was Austrian ambassador at Paris.
Europe watched to see how the Metternichs would be received at the French court, and many prophesied they would not be welcome because of the elder Metternich and his part in the downfall of France in 1815. But the brilliance of the princess soon captured the French. After the Franco-Prussian war and the death of her husband, Princess Mettrinch visited Paris annually and it was on one of these visits that she played one of her most famous jokes.
At a dinner she was giving in the home of the Countess Edmond de Pourtales, fifty men and women were gathered and, with the exception of four strangers, two young men and two young women, introduced as Hungarian friends of the princess, all were well known to Mme. de Pourtales and to one another.
The strangers were seated two at each end of the table, and no one paid much attention to them. The time for dessert came and gayety had reached its climax. Suddenly one of the Hungarian girls seized a champagne bottle and hurled it to the other end of the table, where it was cleverly caught by one of the young men. At the same time the other Magyar girl sent flying down the table four Bohemian vases, which were all caught with practiced dexterity and quickly returned. And then the air was filled with flying cut glass, plates, dishes and vases of flowers and orchide.
Women screamed and crouched beneath the table, while the men tried to restrain the four guests whom all thought were crazed with champagne. By this time the four trangers had mounted the table and were leaping among the dishes and glasses, bounding backward and forward keeping the air full of china, silver and glasses.
It was some time before the princess was able to reassure her badly bewildered and frightened guests and to reintroduce the Hungarians as a famous trone of acrobats and jugglers of the Theater Marigny.

American Chemists Have Accomplished the Wonders Which Ancient Chemists Strived for by the Utilization of Coal Tar By-Products
(Told in Eight Sketches)
By JOHN RAYMOND
No. IV
THE ALCHEMIST'S DREAM
Through the literature of the ancients runs the absorbing story of the alchemist's patient search for the touchstone which would transform all base metals into pure gold and the never ending quest for the elixir which would restore youth to the aged and would cure all human ills. The alchemist, driven from cellar to garret and often put to death, had an elemental knowledge of chemistry and vaguely dreamed that it could be made to perform wonders.
It was Ben Jonson's alchemist, Subtle, lack in the early seventeenth century who planned "to change all that is in my house to gold, and early in the morning to send to all the plumbers and petters and buy their tin and lead up; and to Lothbury for all the copper." And more than that, by means of this magic elixir, in eight and twenty days he planned to transform an old man of four score into a prattling child.
Certainly, chemistry has not succeeded in performing these marvels. The philosopher's stone still is an unknown quantity to science, buried, perhaps, with the pot of gold at the rainbow's end, and the elixir of youth is as deeply hidden as on that far-off day when De Soto set forth so bravely from Spain to find it in the new world. But chemistry has accomplished wonders by the utilization of coal products which contribute to every phase of our daily life. Take the fairy glass of the chemist and look into this rather uninteresting substance—coal.
We put a kettle of it over a fire and we see leaving at various times what the chemist calls the Crudes-benzone, oleene, xylene, naphthalene, anthracene, carbazol, and some others. But these are the most important.
Some are clear liquids, some are beautiful crystals, but all are brought out of the black coal tar by the magicians' wand, which is simply fractional distillation; that is, catching and condensing the vapors given off at various temperatures.
Now what of the Crudes? Add nitric acid, or any one of hundreds of chemicals, and either heat or cool as the case may be, and we get a host of other compounds described as intermediates. Although some of the crudes and many of the intermediates are useful as such, the real development begins with the chemical treatment of the intermediate tests. With many of these intermediates, one line of treatment will produce drugs, another high explosives, another poison gases, still another perfumes, food flavors and photographic materials. Some have varying peace and war time uses without further treatment. It should be noted that some of these crudes require as many as fifteen manipulations to produce a given compound and in each manipulation a by-product is produced which again must be made into something useful in order to avoid waste.
It is because of this treatment and retreatment of coal, crudes and intermediates that it is so easy to convert a dye plant into a factory for the production of high explosives or poisonous gases almost overnight.
Germany was indeed farsighted, back in 1859, when she took advantage of Perkin's discovery, and began the development of a cigarette industry so that she might never be without the crudes and intermediates so essential to success in war or peace.
Germany developed the synthetic dye industry, just as she developed other industries, to create employment and wealth for her millions. But through these developments she learned the value of chemistry, of chemicals and of chemists themselves. She realized early how dependent her peace development was on chemistry and she soon saw the value of chemical industries to war. Germany saw that the manufacture of dyes required much chemical research and also that dye making made use of the waste products from the coke ovens, themselves a necessity. To her iron and steel industry. She saw its value in the production of explosives, gases and fertilizers for her fields. This foresight gave Germany a forty year start on the United States, and the rest of the world.
