Southern California SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1873. Kleinigheiten, The regular meeting of Anaheim Lodge No. 207 F. & A. M. will be held this evening. The musical squawk of wild geese can already be heard at early morn on the Los Alamitos. Those in want of good baled hay, can get some at a bargain, at the branch of W. M. McFadden. The present cold nights are said to affect the new wine very unfavorably, by retarding fermentation. The Los Angeles Daily Herald made its first appearance on Thursday. We wish it success. Mr. Henry T. Hazard of Los Angeles, was married on Thursday to Miss Carrie Geller, daughter of Dr. Geller of El Monte. The last steamer for San Francisco, took a cargo of 400 bales of wool, 500 sacks of grain, and thirty pipes of wine from Anaheim Landing. A runaway and an accident happened at the Ten-mile house last week, but as we have been requested to say nothing about it, we won't mention it. If any of our friends has a one-horse buggy, and want to rent it for the week they can find an owner. A Whopper — Numerous big things have been presented to us lately, among them sundry big bills which we have been required to liquidate. But the biggest thing yet was given to us on Tuesday by our friend D. H. Samis of Santa Ana. It was a watermelon which we found lying at the foot of the stairs leading up to our office. But when we found it, we also found that keener nostrils than ours had scented the feast, and the glittering blades of a dozen jack knives in the hands of as many hungry looking individuals, warned us that our treasure was in danger, and that it behooved us to bear it to a place of safety. This, from its great weight and our own obesity, proved no easy task, and it was then that we thought of that little story which describes how the neighbors of an intrebsely lazy man, tired of furnishing him with the necessaries of life, were conveying him to the graveyard for interment. One of his neighbors, however, more compassionate than the rest, stopped the procession and proffered a large quantity of corn to the lazy individual. "Is the corn shelled?" asked he, raising himself upanguidly. "No," said the tender-hearted neighbor. "Then drive on," said the lazy man. We are very, very fond of melon, but we could not help wishing that our friend had carried it up stairs, instead of leaving it at the foot. But by a judicious use of Our barley crop is the majority of it us or else has been shipped fully as great expected to obtain eral fields of grain ed at all, and a levy bay.

Pumpkin thrive wonderfully them are of enorm Many parties raised and it is found that cullarily adapted to If we only had the tisco, took a cargo of 400 bales of wool, 500 sacks of grain, and thirty pipes of wine from Anaheim Landing. A runaway and an accident happened at the Ten-mile house last week, but as we have been requested to say nothing about it, we won't mention it. If any of our friends has a one-horse buggy, and want to rent it for three weeks, they can find an opportunity to do so by calling at this office. We call attention to the advertisement of that veteran nurseryman, T A. Garey. His assortment of trees is not surpassed in any nursery in Southern California. Ben Dreyfus will pay one cent per pound for grapes delivered in Anaheim. Two large wagon loads were brought from Los Nietos yesterday. The preliminary survey of the route of the canal is developing the fact, that it is far more practicable, and will cost much less money, than was at first supposed. Santa Ana is receiving its quota of attention from Eastern visitors. There are a number of gentlemen now looking around that section for suitable homes. Mr. Casey of the Richland nursery will commence canvassing the county next week, for orders for trees. Let the people be liberal with their orders. W. S. Wright of Anaheim, C. Folsom of Los Alamitos and J Melius of Wilmington, started for Proscoott yesterday morning. They will accompany Dick Egan, who they expected to intercept at San Bernardino. Pete bath taken unto himself a partner. It is Mr. P. Granet, who has sold out his business at Gallatin and will hereafter make Anaheim his home. The personal popularity of Messrs. Richards & Granot, together with the quality of their stock in trade, will attract a large business. On our fourth page will be found an interesting article on "squirrels and gophers." Many of the farmers the procession and proffered a large quantity of corn to the lazy individual. "Is the corn shelled?" asked he, raising himself up languidly. "No," said the tender-hearted neighbor. "Then drive on," said the lazy man. We are very, very fond of melon, but we could not help wishing that our friend had carried it up stairs, instead of leaving it at the foot. But by a judicious use of the knife, we succeeded in placing it safely in the sanctum. Before mutilating it, however, we weighed it on Clark's scales, and found its weight to be forty-eight and one half pounds. It measured thirty-nine inches in length, and thirty-five inches in circumference. Odd Fellows' Hall Building Association.—At the meeting of the stockholders of this association, held last Saturday, the following gentlemen were elected a Board of Directors: John Fischer, E. W. Champlin, J B Zeyn, S H. Dyer and R. Heimann. The last named gentleman reported that 905 shares of the stock had been disposed of thus leaving only 95 shares on hand. The amount paid, and to be paid within a few days, by the stockholders, is $7,000. The association have only had to borrow $3,000, which is more than enough to pay all their indebtedness. The large cellar under their building has been rented to a wine company, and an offer was made by some parties to buy the unoccupied part of their lot. This consists of a strip 14 by 150 feet, and it is intended by the parties wanting to purchase, to build a fire-proof brick building, for what purpose, we have been unable to ascertain. This proposition is being considered by the Board. Altogether, the prospects of the association, financial and otherwise, are very flattering, and their success completely astonishes those doubting Thomases, who a few months ago, dolefully shook their heads and predicted that "the thing couldn't be done." An Unpleasant Episode—We had our gallantry put to a severe better potatoes than season, and predict we will raise enough Anaheim market season. Pumpkin thrive wonderfully them are of enormity.

It is Mr. P. Granet, who has sold out his business at Gallatin and will hereafter make Anabeim his home. The personal popularity of Messrs. Richards & Granet, together with the quality of their stock in trade, will attract a large business. On our fourth page will be found an interesting article on "squirrels and gophers." Many of the farmers in this section have had some bitter experience with these pests, and can no doubt, give some valuable information, as to the best means of destroying them. We will cheerfully give place to any communication upon the subject. A large meeting of farmers was held at Gospel Swamp school house last Monday evening. It was addressed by Mr. L. M. Holt, a correspondent of the Rural Press, on the subject of "Granges." It was the intention to organize a grange in that district, but upon discussing the matter they decided to abandon the idea for the present. However, twenty applications for membership were sent to the Fruitland Grange, located at Tustin City. On next Thursday, delegates from every precinct in the county will meet at Gallatin "for the purpose of considering the ways and means of developing and increasing the water supply for agricultural purposes, with the view of having the same used as a basis for legislative action." We have not yet heard of any stops having been taken to send a delegate from this precinct. We would suggest that the Fairview Grange appoint some time to attend. An Unpleasant Episode—We had our gallantry put to a severe test the other day. We were taking our post prandial walk through one of the grassy, unfrequented lanes near Reiner's vineyard when we overtook a squaw walking in the same direction. She had a beautiful, dirty papoose strapped to her back, the weight of which seemed to impede her progress, as it was with some difficulty she staggered along. As we passed in close proximity to her, she tripped and fell and we gallantly assisted her to her feet. She evidently labored under the impression that we had caused her fall, for no sooner had she regained her equilibrium, than her features assumed an injured air, and diving into her capacious bosom, she brought forth a half filled whisky bottle, and let it fly at our reportorial head. It was only by a display of extraordinary agility that we avoided the missile, which shot harmlessly by. We did not stop to reason with her on the impropriety of her conduct, but hoisted all sail and steered for a safer haven. This is the first time that whisky ever flew to our head.

The condition of the crops and their wonderful growth—More artesian wells—A probable sanitation—Ungodorous criticism of Westminster by Anaheimmen. Westminster, October 1st There is nothing more disagreeable than to try to compose a letter, lecture or sermon when you feel that you have nothing to say and don't know how to say it. Finding my mind in that condition last week, I did not try to write you a letter. Our barley crop is thrashed and the majority of it is at the Landing, or else has been shipped. The yield was fully as great as the farmers expected to obtain last June. Several fields of grain were not harvested at all, and a few were cut for hay. The corn crop is looking fine and farmers talk of eighty and a hundred bushels to the acre. The potatoe crop is about gathered, and the yield was much better than we hoped, as we were assured that potatoes could not be raised in Southern California. I never saw better potatoes than grew here this season, and predict that next year we will raise enough to supply the Anaheim market for the whole season. Pumpkins and squashes thrive wonderfully, and some of them are of enormous dimensions. Many parties raised beets this year, and it is found that the soil is peculiarly adapted to their cultivation. If we only had the capital to com- better potatoes than grew here this season, and predict that next year we will raise enough to supply the Anaheim market for the whole season. Pumpkins and squashes thrive wonderfully, and some of them are of enormous dimensions. Many parties raised beets this year, and it is found that the soil is peculiarly adapted to their cultivation. If we only had the capital to commence a beet sugar factory, our fortunes would be assured, if we could obtain four dollars a ton for the beets. Mr. Jesse Bowley has quite a crop of tobacco and has erected a drying house. Dr. McCoy has moved up to the land he purchased here, and intends to erect a large building which is now commenced. It is so arranged that additions can be made when necessary. We hope to see it develop into a commodious sanitarium, filled with people seeking health in our wonderful climate. Two artesian wells have been completed since I last wrote, one for J. W. Bingham and one for J. W. Patterson. Mr F. W. Poor is now sinking a second well on his land. The "church sociable" having obtained from various sources about $100, have sent to San Francisco for an organ for church and school purposes. The instrument is expected to arrive of the next steamer, and will cost, including freight, $170. Too much praise cannot be awarded to the members of the church choir for the zeal and energy they have displayed in obtaining this much needed addition to our devotional exercises. It is hoped that it will increase the interest in the public school. The suspension of business by the lumber company at Anaheim Landing, as a serious inconvenience to this community, and we hope soon to see business resumed, as much lumber will be needed for various purposes before the rains commence. There is one peculiarity about the people of Anaheim that gives us considerable trouble and anxiety, and sometimes makes us quite angry, that is the manner in which they speak of this place, its climate, soil INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL Whole number enrolled... 48 Average number belonging... 44 Average daily attendance... 42 Miss D.

SPECIAL NOTICES. lumber company at Anaheim Landing, is a serious inconvenience to this community, and we hope soon to see business resumed, as much lumber will be needed for various purposes before the rains commence. There is one peculiarity about the people of Anaheim that gives us considerable trouble and anxiety, and sometimes makes us quite angry, that is the manner in which they speak of this place, its climate, soil and productions. Every thing here is disparaged, we are called fools, victims, idiots, and other uncouth names, because we have taken up our lot here. Strangers looking for homes are dissuaded from visiting us. You can hear men of Anaheim, who never visited this section, tell why it is utterly impossible ever to raise fruit or grapes. They assert that we live in a salt marsh, that there is no fertile soil, that the water is so near the surface that fruit-trees and vines will not thrive, that the climate is so cold that the fruit will all be killed, and a dozen other reasons why we can never make this place a success. Why is this? What have we done to merit such ungenerous criticism? We have never attempted to injure Anaheim. Her advancement and success insures ours. We ask nothing from her but good will and fair dealing; if we can not receive this, we will depend on our own resources, and the day may come when Anaheimers will regret their uncharitable misrepresentations.
