LOS ANGELES BEER ON DRAUGHT. Koll Block, Los Angeles Street JOSEPH BACKS, Undertaker and Embalmer Brown's Buttered Watermelon. Colonel George W. Anderson, a man of splendid genius and rare oratorical gifts, was stumping for Greeley and Brown down in southwest Missouri. One night in the midst of his speech an old fellow arose in the back of the house and said: "Colonel Anderson, is it true that Governor Brown was so drunk at that Yale alumni dinner that he buttered his watermelon?" Colonel Anderson reared back on his eastern joints, straightened himself to his 6 feet 2 and with a lion's roar answered: "Yes, it is true that Governor Brown buttered his watermelon at the Yale alumni dinner, and I am happy to inform you that that is the only way in which watermelons are eaten in polite society." Anderson's happy retort was greeted with a shout of laughter and a roar of applause by his auditors. His interrogator sat down discomfited, and that was the last ever heard of the story of the buttered watermelon—all of which goes to demonstrate the value of Danton's famous motto: "L'audace! L'audace! Toujours l'audace!" Colonel Anderson was a wonderful stumper. He was most emphatically a rough diamond. In the rough and tumble, catch-as-you-can style of debating he never had a superior in Missouri, which is saying a great deal. He was an adept in the use of every species of oratorical weapon—Champ Clark in Saturday Evening Post. Shake into Your Snobs. Allen's Foot-Ease, a powder.

The house in which Joan of Arc was born is still faithfully preserved in plous veneration at Domremy, where it is looked upon almost in the light of a shrine. Passersby invariably cross themselves and utter a prayer for protection as they go by. The story goes that a rich and eccentric Englishman tried hard to buy the place in 1837. It was at that time the property of a farmer named Girardin. The Englishmen offered to let him name his own price, but the old man held firm. "No, no, no," he cried. "I would not sell it even to a Frenchman, much less to a foreigner and especially an Englishman. People here would call me a traitor and a coward were I to part with the house from which Joan of Arc set out to serve France."

The story goes that a rich and eccentric Englishman tried hard to buy the place in 1837. It was at that time the property of a farmer named Girardin. The Englishman offered to let him name his own price, but the old man held firm. "No, no, no," he cried. "I would not sell it even to a Frenchman, much less to a foregarner and especially an Englishman. People here would call me a traitor and a coward were I to part with the house from which Joan of Arc set out to serve France." The Englishman convinced himself that further bargaining was useless and went his way. Soon after an officer from the king's household arrived in the village and asked to speak with Girardin. Before the whole village, assembled in the street, he said: "Girardin, the king has learned that you have refused to sell your house to an Englishman. He desires to reward you, but not in coin. He knows that you no more want the money of the French than of the English, therefore has he commanded me to present you with the cross of the Legion of Honor."

BIRKEL, aug2 1950 FOURTH ST., SAN DIEGO, CA ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1901. NITROFICATION OF THE SOIL. Prof. Cook Upon the Subject of Legumes to Furnish Nitrogenous Element to the Soil. The discussion regarding the planting of legumes to furnish the nitrogenous element in fertilizing our soils at the recent Riverside Institute shows very clearly that there is need of more accurate information relating to the subject. Prof. Paine of Redlands said that the microbes did not work till warm weather, as I understood him; while I think it was Dr. Loughridge who remarked that they might not be found if there were plenty of nitrogen already in the soil. The last meeting of the Pasadena Farmers' club discussed this matter and voted that I explain the precise action of the microbes in their good work of collecting the nitrogen from the atmosphere. It seems that one of the members of the club was quite sure that the nitrogen enters the leaves as does the carbonic acid in the work of plant nutrition. In view of these erroneous opinions regarding the leguminous microbes, I am very glad to give the facts in the case as I understand them. The microbes are all single cell plants. Yet, simple as they are, they have the power of taking from their surroundings all the needed elements of nutrition and converting them into their own tissue. They use what they want, just as higher plants do, and give off what is of no use to them. We see, then, that they decompose material which they work upon, using and rejecting just as do the higher plants. They are, however, often quite different from the higher plants in the material which they require, as also the material which they are able to utilize. We all know that higher plants require some oxygen—more at night—while it is a positive fact that many bacteria not only do not require oxygen, clusion from these facts as given above. We shall be more certain to have our soil inoculated if we grow the same crop, year after year. It is well, then, to spend no little thought and study in deciding what legume to raise. With this decision once made, it will be wise to continue to grow this crop year after year. I believe that we cannot do better than to grow some vigorous pea. I recommended six years ago that the Canadian field pea would be most excellent. I believe I made no mistake. This is not only very vigorous, but grows well in winter, the only time when we can afford to grow the plants in our orchards here in California, but we can, if we so desire, secure enough peas to give us a good profit, and yet secure a large amount of nitrogen. I would plant the peas in early autumn so as to get the benefit of the winter rains. They are best planted in drills, and 50 or 60 will plant an acre. If planted in drills, they can be irrigated and cultivated if so desired. Some of our orchardists plant only alternate rows in alternate winters, in which case the peas need not be tramped as the fruit of the orchard is gathered, but this is a matter of no great importance. I am very glad that this cheap way of securing the nitrogen is growing in favor in our Southern California orchards. The present winter is an excellent one to prove its advantage. With our heavy rain storm in November and our present more than two and one-half inches and still raining, will insure a vigorous crop. This will be mature enough to plow under by the last of February so the decomposition will be complete early in the season. It is a well-known fact that the ground which has thus been treated will be so stored with humus that it will be much more moist all the summer through. There are three great advantages that come through this green manuring: First, we get the most expensive soil element, nitrogen at a very low cost. In the sec- MR. CHAPMAN'S REPORT. Annual Statement Made the Stockholders of the Water Company—Many Things of Interest Referred to. Believing that the stockholders should be better informed about the affairs of the company than they generally are, as so few attend the annual meetings, when it is customary for the President to make a report of the company's condition and business, I take the liberty of sending to each stockholder the following report. I shall endeavor to make a clear, full, candid statement, intentionally omitting nothing, or in any way attempt to misinform the stockholders. I believe when thus informed they will be less prone to pass judgment founded upon mere rumors, which seem ever to abound and are generally detrimental to the interests of the company, as well as to the reputations of the Directors for possessing ordinary business sagacity and common honesty. It is the privilege of every stockholder to know the business of the company; to know what disposition the officers make of the cash collected and the care taken of the company's property and the general status of its affairs. If the stockholders would more generally avail themselves of their rights in this regard and secure their information of the company's business direct, there would be, I have no doubt, far less disposition to criticise the officials in the management of its business. Indeed there would be a more cordial cooperation with the officials, which would result to the general good of the company and lighten the labors of the Directors. To say the least, they would take up their duties more cheerfully when they felt that their services were in a measure appreciated. My predecessor, the late William J. Fay, a gentleman of large business ability and long and varied experience in a practical engineer, gave much time ETC. Angeles and Cypress Sts COUNTY and For Sample Copy. Buttered Watermelon.

His interknown discomfit, and that it ever heard of the story alterated watermelon—all of these little friends of the agriculturist are at work. Yet Shakespeare's expression, "Sweet are the uses of adversity," is well illustrated here. The tubercle shows that the plant is irritated and hence the hyper-trophy or excessive growth as evidenced in the tubercle itself. Yet as we shall see, the plant receives very much more good than harm. Not only must these bacteria have a leguminous plant on which to feed in part, but each leguminous plant has its own specific microbe. One microbe works on peas, another on lupins, while a third may fasten to the rootlets of the vetch. Two things, then, are perfectly evident that we may gain great benefit wrought by these nitrifying bacteria; we must grow some species of legume and we must also have in the soil the specific microbe that works on the roots of this legume. These bacteria do not come from seeds, but reproduce at enormous rapidity by simple division. Nature's knife cuts one of these minute germs in two and our microbe is doubled. The rapidity of increase by this method is surprisingly great. A single microbe may become millions in a few hours time. As none of the higher plants can come except the seeds be present in the soil, so none of these lowest plants, the bacteria, can ever exist except in places where the microbes are already present. It thus becomes evident that to get the benefit from these nitrifying germs, we must not only grow legumes, but our soil must be inoculated. Unless the specific microbe of the legume we plant is already in the soil, this good work of capturing the free nitrogen of the air will not go on. It is very easy to tell whether the mi- surroundings all the needed elements of nutrition and converting them into their own tissue. They use what they want, just as higher plants do, and give off what is of no use to them. We see, then, that they decompose material which they require, as also the material which they are able to utilize. We all know that higher plants require some oxygen—more at night—while it is a positive fact that many bacteria not only do not require oxygen, but are destroyed by it. So far as we know, none of the higher plants can use the free nitrogen of the air. This wary malden, if we may so designate her, is what they all long for with exceeding longing, yet she always eludes their grasp. In combined form, with some base, as potash, lime, etc., they can easily absorb this nitrogen and utilize it to their great advantage. The little nitrifying microbe of the soil has just this power of snatching the nitrogen from the air which is close to the roots and combining it so that higher plants are able to use it. It is a curious fact that only leguminous plants are attacked by these microbes. I say attacked advisely, for the bacteria do actually work on the roots of peas, beans, lupins, etc. That they do is evident from the tubercles or gall-like excreences which are ever found on the roots of leguminous plants when these little friends of the agriculturist are at work.

Coination. The director of the mint shows in his annual report that the coinage of the past year was in excess of any previous year in the history of the service, aggregating $141,351,660, as compared with $136,855,676 in the last fiscal year. The value of gold coinage was slightly below that of the previous year, being $107,937,110, as compared with $108,177，180. The coinage of silver dollars was $18，244，984，as compared with $18，254，709 in the previous year. The chief increase was in output subsidary and minor coins, which surpass all records,and it is stated,may doubtless be attributed to extraordinary activity of retail trade throughout country.The coinage subsidiary silver amounted to 57，114，270 pieces of value for $12，876，849,and minor coins tothe extraordinary totalof 101，301，753 pieces.ofthevalueof$2，243，017.

There was no material loss to stock-holders on account of failure to secure water during this period. An item of considerable expense is the cleaning of the Cajon or main canal of moss and weeds. This amounts to about $3000 annually and could be largely avoided if certain sections were cemented. The directors have made special effort to realize an income from the company's various real estate holdings. It is believed by some oil men that a portion of the company's lands are valuable as oil lands, and two leases have been made to parties for the development of oil. The company is to receive a royalty besides a small cash rental. $400.00 was received last year, and we expect to get $829.00 for the present year from this source. Land has also been rented for grazing purposes. From this source the company received $550 for past year and contracts are made for $600 for present year. The company received from the sale of water during the year $24,587. Of this amount $6,935 came from Anaheim and $17,652 from North Anaheim, as the Fullerton, Orangethorpe and Placentia districts are known. The supply of water was greatly diminished when most needed by the diversion made by the Fullers about three miles above the Durkee ranch. Had it not been for this diversion and with the added supply secured with the Durkee property but little lack of water would have been experienced, notwithstanding the three previous exceedingly dry years, which inevitably has diminished the natural flow and supply in the river. It is as evident to the directors as to the stockholders that as the orchards in the district grow older and new ones are being set out, a larger supply of water is needed. Cementing of some sections of the main canal would pre- avoidable loss. This seems LOCAL NOTES OF INTEREST. School Money. The yearly apportionment of school money has been made by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and it shows the wonderful strides Orange county is making in its population. The total amount apportioned for school purposes is $2,358,329.09. There are 361,153 census school children in the State, their number together with the amount appropriated, for the southern counties being: Los Angeles.....47,527 $310,351 31 Orange.....5,888 38,448 64 San Diego.....7,851 51,267 03 Riverside.....4,819 31,488 07 San Bernardino.....6,815 44,501 95 Orange county is twelfth is respect of the total number of census school children, out of 57 counties in the State. Those counties having a greater number are San Francisco, with 78,554; Los Angeles, 47,527; Alameda, 34,940; Santa Clara, 14,518; Sonoma, 9726; Sacramento, 8816; Fresno, 8649; San Diego, 7851; San Joaquin, 7738; Humboldt, 6909, and San Bernardino, 6815. Orange county is making wonderful strides in increasing her population, and before many years we shall overhaul some of the counties which now overtop us in the number of their inhabitants. Modjeska Ranch. A deal is said to be on by which Arden, the home of Madame Modjeska, in the Santiago canyon, and its appurtenances will soon become the property of an Eastern millionaire. This report is given color by the fact that Modjeska is said to have given out to intimate friends her intention of spending six months in Europe at the conclusion of the theoretical season. By some this is interpreted to mean that the famous actress may fulfill her long cherished desire and return to the land of her nativity to spend her declining years. Modjeska is far from strong and this Stockholders must not forget that, often valuable to the individual, is demanded by the duties of the company, and all compensation, and yet his servile appreciation by many of stockholders. It is as evident in the directors as to the stockholders that as the orchards in the district grow older and new ones are being set out, a larger supply of water is needed. Cementing of some sections of the main canal would prevent a considerable loss. This seems imperative. Water can also be developed, or that which we now have might be impounded. These questions and the most desired method of raising the necessary funds for improvement should be considered at the stockholders' meeting. If successful in estopping the Fullers from further diverting water, and with the added supply secured with the Durkee property, and the enlarging and cementing portions of the main canal, we may look for a large increase the coming summer over that of last summer. Early in the year arrangements were made with the Southern California Railway Company to furnish it six inches of water from May 1st to December 31st for $1500. This water was used in the oil field by the several companies working in the vicinity of the Santa Fe district. While the company received a large price for the water, one object in furnishing it was to encourage an industry that was adding largely to the taxable property of the county and giving employment to hundreds of people. This water was taken from the main canal on the Olinda ranch, and the expense of putting in necessary gate was borne by the Railway Company. Financially the company, though having many obligations, was never in better condition than it is today. The reputation and stability of the company is such that those having money to loan are quite willing to place it with it at a low rate of interest. The bonded indebtedness of the company was reduced past year by the payment of $25,000 of its bonds. There now remains outstanding bonds to the amount of $125,000, $25,000 of which mature in four years, from January 1, 1901, the remaining $100,000 January 1, 1915. These draw seven per cent interest. The other secured obligation, that owing D. Durkee, is $35,000, which draws five per cent. $5000 of this is payable January 23rd, the present year, and $5000 annually thereafter. The total unsecured indebtedness is $34,500. This is owing several parties, all but one being stockholders, who hold the company's notes drawing six per cent interest. This makes a total indebtedness, bonded and otherwise, of $194,200 (or $24.35 on each share of stock issued). Though this is a considerable amount; yet when the large property rights, canals, flumes and ditches are taken into account, and the large and valuable districts supplied by the company Modjeska Ranch. A deal is said to be on by which Arden, the home of Madame Modjeska, in the Santiago canyon, and its appurtenances will soon become the property of an Eastern millionaire. This report is given color by the fact that Modjeska is said to have given out to intimate friends her intention of spending six months in Europe at the conclusion of thetheatrical season. By some this is interpreted to mean that the famous actress may fulfill her long-cherished desire and return to the land of her nativity to spend her declining years. Modjeska is far from strong and this season in all seriousness will probably end her professional career. The property is situated in Santiago canyon, about twenty-five miles from Anaheim. Her irrigating system impounds the water from an ever-flowing mountain stream, which finds its way down what is known as Harding canyon, near the mouth of which a concrete dam twenty-eight feet high has been built. The length of the dam from bank to bank is eighty feet and its foundation is solid rock, an excavation of eight feet having been made for that purpose. A topographical map of the entire property has been prepared and forwarded to the actress in New York. Madame Mojeska has always expressed a desire to return to Poland, and the disposal of her property probably marks the first step toward the accomplishment of this plan. Brought Good Fortune. A small item in his own paper lately brought amazing good fortune to Editor Chris. Reitter, of the Saginaw (Mich.) Post and Zeitung. He and his family had the Grip in its worst form. Their doctor did them no good. Then he read Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds was a guaranteed cure for La Gripe and all Throat and Lung troubles; tried it and says: "Three bottles cured the whole family. No other medicine on earth equals it." Only 50c and $1 at P. A. Derge's drug store. Trial bottles free. Oil Notes. The drill in the Carbon Canyon well on the Koster ranch last week tapped a vein of gas at a depth of 1070 feet which almost blew the derrick down. There was 600 feet of water in the hole and every drop was blown out and the roar of the escaping gas could be heard for a great distance. The prospects for oil are said to be good. Rheumatism. Nobody knows all about it; and nothing, now known, will always cure it.

Doctors try Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil, when they think it is caused by imperfect digestion of food. You can do the same. It may or may not be caused by the failure of stomach and bowels to do their work. If it is, you will cure it; if not, you will do no harm. The way, to cure a disease is to stop its cause, and help the body get back to its habit of health. When Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil does that, it cures; when it don't, it don't cure. It never does harm. The genuine has this picture on it, take no other. If you have not tried it, send for free sample, its agreeable taste will surprise you.
