FACTS CONCERNING ANAHEIM
Extracts from the Chamber of Commerce Pamphlet Descriptive of the Boss Place on Earth
Midway between the mountains and the ocean, in the center of a rich and level plain, the little city of Anaheim is located.
Mountains, snow-capped in winter, to the north, mountains to the east, with the nearer green hills and the adjacent orchards, vineyards and farming lands, extending far in all directions, make a landscape that not only pleases the eye but conveys to the mind a suggestion of thrift and plenty.
Situated in the northern portion of Orange county, twenty-seven miles south of the city of Los Angeles, it has easy communication with, and makes ready market in the Southern California metropolis.
It is connected with the city just named by means of two railroads, the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific, and the traveler between the two places has a choice of six trains daily, which, with commutation rates in case of frequent travel, makes easy access to a metropolis.
In addition to these facilities for traffic, it is probable that electric cars will soon be running, with the usual frequency, between Anaheim and Los Angeles. The franchise for the projected electric road has already been secured, and the railway will without doubt be in operation within the next twelve months.
The location of the prosperous town of Anaheim is ideal, lying as it does in the center of so fertile a country, that the capacity for diversified crops is almost unlimited.
The history of Anaheim is unique and has been the theme of many pens. Years ago—something less than half a century—fifty men, all native Germans, at that time residing in San Francisco, formed a corporation known as the Los Angeles Vineyard society. They were not farmers or fruit-growers. They pursued their various avocations in the northern city, chiefly those of the mechanic and tradesman.
But they had dreams of a different and more congenial approach to prosperity. They purchased 1165 acres in Southern California, the site of the present town of Anaheim. The tract was subdivided into fifty twenty-acre lots and fifty house lots. A manager was selected and under his supervision know how to conduct themselves, without thunder and lightning they attend strictly to business. They give ample warning, and when they subside they do so with no threatening, no grumbling; and the merchant and the fruit grower smile with the sun, for they know what irrigation means to the sun-kissed land.
Even though the temperature may rise on a few particular days far above the average, the oppressive, sultry humidity of the eastern "hot spell" is entirely absent, and it must be remembered that the nights are always cool.
HEALTH-GIVING PROPERTIES.
The sanitary conditions of the city of Anaheim are excellent, as shown by the low death rate.
Epidemics are comparatively unknown and cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever, quite uncommon, are always of a very mild type. The balmy air, devoid as it is of extremes, makes it an ideal climate for all suffering from catarrhal diseases of the respiratory organs.
The citizens of this town have reason to feel proud of its supply of good water; it is clear as crystal and as pure as can be obtained.
Space is not allowed here for a full discussion of the many advantages to be derived, physically, from a residence in this particular salutary spot. Yet what can be better for the invalid than a moderate, equable climate, plenty of sunshine, the best water and, seemingly, all the other essential conditions for the convalescent; only such a region as this can supply them.
IRRIGATION.
Occupying a part of a fertile alluvial plain, the delta of the Santa Ana river, the soil is a rich, sandy loam, easy to work, with a gradual slope toward the ocean, which facilitates irrigation.
The average annual rainfall is twelve inches, so that the dry plains of this locality produce burr clover, alfalfa, wild oats and other native grasses, thus furnishing a moderate amount of pasture. In a favorable season a full crop of grain may be produced without irrigation, as indeed, is invariably the case in our big outlying grain ranches.
With thorough and regular irrigation the same lands produce abundant crops of almost any variety.
The horticulturists and farmers are organized into the Anaheim Union Water company, a corporation of nearly six hundred stockholders, with a capital stock of one million two hun-
crop, which commands the highest price in the eastern market, been removed from the trees, when the English walnut crop engages the attention of the horticulturist. Anaheim has walnut trees growing in the full splendor of their luxuriance that are more than forty years old, and the young or chards in full bearing are extensive. Orange county produces one-third of all the English walnuts grown in the entire state. Many of the more productive trees yield nuts annually to this value of $80.
This section is a suitable home for the walnut. It thrives naturally in this environment. In the coming year it is destined to become the great money-making staple of the soil.
Our new possessions in the West Jalies, while in a degree they may compete with California in the production of citrus fruits, cannot become her rival in the production of walnuts. The trees require particular condition of soil and climate, which are he found in all their perfection.
The superiority of climatic condition not only renders the valley mistress to the citrus and walnut yield, but in this production of all kinds of fruits and vegetables Orange county takes care precedence over neighboring sections.
Toi Causes Night Alarm
"One night my brother's baby woke taken with croup," writes Mrs. J. Snider of Crittenden, Ky. "It seemed it would strangle before we could get doctor, so we gave Dr. King's New Discovery, which gave quick relief and permanently cured it. We always keep it in the house to protect our children from croup and whooping cough. It cured me of an chronic bronchial trouble that no remedy would relieve."

Returned from South Africa
Jud B. Blick and wife have returned from an extended trip to England Egypt and South Africa. Mr. Bill made thorough investigation of mines properties in Africa for an English syndicate. He declares the prospect for settlers in South Africa are bright. Good land in some sections is as low as 18 cents an acre, and the country will give homeseekers 500 acres of good land each, provided the settler will accept
a century—fifty men, all native Germans, at that time residing in San Francisco, formed a corporation known as the Los Angeles Vineyard society. They were not farmers or fruit-growers. They pursued their various avocations in the northern city, chiefly those of the mechanic and tradesman.
But they had dreams of a different and more congenial approach to prosperity. They purchased 1165 acres in Southern California, the site of the present town of Anaheim. The tract was subdivided into fifty twenty-acre lots and fifty house lots. A manager was selected, and under his supervision eight acres of each twenty were planted with vines, which were cared for by him during a period of three years. In the meantime the members of the "Vineyard Society" continued to live in San Francisco, pursuing their various callings.
At the end of the three years the property was divided by lot and each member received a deed to twenty acres and a house lot. About the same time the majority of the land-owners arrived in Anaheim and took possession of their several estates. They began making improvements which soon transformed Anaheim into a community whose fame became world-wide, both as a successful experiment in colonization and as a wine producing center.
Time has wrought the usual changes. Few of the original colonists survive, and from a distinctly German settlement it has become as cosmopolitan as any city in the State. The vineyards, which for more than twenty years were the special pride and glory of the pioneer, have given place in a great measure to walnut and orange groves. But there remains enough of the original settlement to give the stranger an idea of the appearance of the "German Colony," as it was called, at a time when it was the only settlement worthy of the name between Los Angeles on the north and San Diego on the south.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS.
As has been stated, Anaheim is most favorably situated midway between the mountains and the sea. In round numbers, it may be described as lying twelve miles from the ocean and four and one-half miles from the nearer foothills, being about 150 feet above sea level. Just far enough from the sea to avoid the cold winds of winter, it is yet near enough to enjoy the cool breezes of summer. Far enough from the mountains to escape any excessive heat of summer, it is yet near enough to benefit by the clear mountain air as it descends toward the sea. As a natural consequence, the climate is at all times devoid of extremes.
The winters are warm and the summers cool when compared with the same seasons elsewhere. The nights are at all times cool, yet even in winter frosts are of rare occurrence.
The seasons are frequently designated as a dry and a wet season; yet the latter term does not convey an at all definite idea of the winter season. It need not be supposed that it indicates a certain temperature range.
In this locality produce burr clover, aliliria, wild oats and other native grasses, thus furnishing a moderate amount of pasture. In a favorable season a fall crop of grain may be produced without irrigation, as, indeed, is invariably the case in our big outlying grain ranches.
With thorough and regular irrigation the same lands produce abundant crops of almost any variety.
The horticulturists and farmers are organized into the Anaheim Union Water company, a corporation of nearly six hundred stockholders, with a capital stock of one million two hundred thousand dollars, represented by twelve thousand shares, of which eight thousand have been issued, the other four thousand remaining in the treasury.
Thus we see that the people themselves own the water, the land being "water-stocked," and each farmer holding a proportion of stock. The expense of irrigation is confined to the extending and improvement of the ditches, keeping in repair the headgate, flumes, drops and small gates, and the distribution of the water, including salaries of necessary officials.
In addition, a crew of men is employed almost constantly in cementing the lateral ditches, in order to facilitate the delivery of water and reduce the waste to the minimum.
The source of water is the Santa Ana river, which is fed by springs and melting snows of the adjoining mountains and is brought down from the headgate through a large ditch, fifteen miles in length, known as the Cajon canal.
During several months of the year this canal is inadequate to bring down the large amount of water in the river which is wasted by flowing on down to the ocean. Even if the water could all be brought down, there is as yet no place prepared to store it for summer use. It is intended, however, that during the next two years this difficulty shall be removed by the enlarging and cementing of the greater portion of the Cajon canal, and by the construction of one of the two large storage reservoirs, the sites for which have already been purchased by the Anaheim Union Water company at a cost of $21,000.
While the rapid development of the country creates each year a demand for more water, this call has been met by the continued improvements in the irrigation system, supplemented by a constantly increasing number of private pumping plants, drawing their supply from never-falling wells on individual ranches.
The remnant of a low range of foothills can be seen skirting the present coast a few miles southwest of Anaheim. This range, continuing as a subformation, checks the flow oceanward of underground currents and creates an artesian belt of flowing wells along the landward side of the ridge. On very rich soil a few miles inland, owing to the slightly increased elevation, these wells no longer flow, and irrigation from the company ditches must be done, or power must be used to pump the water from the wells to inches so that the dry plains of this locally produce burr clover, aliliria, wild oats and other native grasses, thus furnishing a moderate amount of pasture. In a favorable season a full crop of grain may be produced without irrigation, as, indeed, is invariably the case in our big outlying grain ranches.

The winters are warm and the summers cool when compared with the same seasons elsewhere. The nights are at all times cool, yet even in winter frosts are of rare occurrence.
The seasons are frequently designated as a dry and a wet season; yet the latter term does not convey an at all definite idea of the winter season. It need not be supposed that it indicates a steady downpour of rain or even persistent clouds and rain. There may possibly be fewer rainy days in one year in Southern California than in a single month of inclement weather in an eastern state. To be exact, there are on an average about three hundred days in the year during which the sun shines and a much greater number than that are free from rain.
Seldom is there even a slight shower during the summer months, rarely any rainfall from May to October. The first showers may possibly occur in October; the heavier rains may appear in December, or the greatest rainfall may be deferred until January or even as late as March. The earlier rains are necessary to start the grain, the later ones to mature it.
You will never hear the California farmer growling in regard to rainy weather. He knows there will be no more than the needed supply of water.
During the season there are heavy showers, seldom a steady downpour. The rain has a convenient way of descending by night, leaving the days very often clear and beautiful, or with intermittent showers.
Yet when it rains, it rains; the elec-
Stricken with Paralysis
"Henderson Grimett of this place was stricken with partial paralysis and completely lost the use of one arm and side. After being treated by an eminent physician for quite a while without relief, my wife recommended Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and after using two bottles of it he is almost entirely cured.—Geo. R. McDonald, Man, Logan county, W. Va." Several other very remarkable cures of partial paralysis have been effected by the use of this liniment. It is most widely known however, as a cure for rheumatism' sprains and bruises. All druggists.
The remnant of a low range of foothills can be seen skirting the present coast a few miles southwest of Anaheim. This range, continuing as a subformation, checks the flow oceanward of underground currents and creates an artesian belt of flowing wells along the landward side of the ridge. On the very rich soil a few miles inland, owing to the slightly increased elevation, these wells no longer flow, and irrigation from the company ditches must be done, or power must be used to pump the water from the wells to the surface of the ground and upon the rich sandy loam.
The pioneers of Anabeim constructed the first ditch and made the first use and appropriation of water under the provisions of our statutes. The water rights, now so important a factor in the welfare of our horticulturists and farmers, are at present so ingrafted into the statutes of the state, and are so fortified by the decisions of the courts, that none of the principal rights are at all in dispute. Litigation is confined to a few minor privileges.
AGRICULTURE.
In respect to the great variety of the products of the soil it is doubtful if the section of country lying about Anabeim has its superior "out of doors," to borrow a term from the expressive vernacular of the day. Under irrigation the land produces abundant crops of great variety, chief and most profitable of which are oranges, lemons, deciduous fruits, English walnuts and berries, as well as the ordinary farm crops—vegetables and grain.

Anaheim has seen growth in the full splenial luxuriance that are more than fifty years old, and the young orchard is full bearing are extensive. County produces one-third of English walnuts grown in the state. Many of the more productive yield nuts annually to the county is a suitable home for fruit. It thrives naturally in environment.

New possessions in the West Indies in a degree they may come from California in the production of fruits, cannot become her own; the production of walnuts does require particular conditions and climate, which are here all their perfection.
Superiority of climatic conditions renders the valley mistress of its and walnut yield, but in the town of all kinds of fruits and nuts Orange county takes easy place over neighboring sections.

FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM.
Sketch of the industries and Resources on this Most Beautiful Part of California.
The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foothills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California.
The climatic conditions are the most favorable for out-door life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east.
The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc.
The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds.
Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry, ostrich farm, bank, several adequate commercial houses, two hotels and two newspapers. The city also owns its water and lighting plant.
University of California
California granite has been selected as the stone for the new Hearst mining building. It is to be the largest and best equipped mining laboratory in the world. In number of students in mining, the university already stands first. Of freshmen alone the mining college enrolls ninety-eight.
The Hearst mining building, which Mrs. Hearst is erecting in memory of her husband, Senator George Hearst, pioneer, miner, and public man, will contain a general mining laboratory, measuring 46x118 feet, 65 feet high, and with a traveling crane to move the heavy machinery with which it will be equipped; a dry crushing tower three stories high; a room for the smelting of copper and lead, and a gold and silver mill; each measuring 40x62 feet; metallurgical laboratories; research laboratories; a forge; a carpenter's shop; drafting rooms; photographic rooms; shower-baths and locker-rooms for students; lecture halls; administrative offices; a library and stock-room; a reception room for visitors; and offices and private laboratories for members of the mining faculty.
The memorial vestibule will be a spacious and beautiful room paved in marble and finished in buff pressed brick. It will be lighted by three great arched windows on the south, and by three domes, fifty feet above the floor and supported by eight steel columns. Marble staircases in double flights will lead to broad surrounding galleries at the level of the second and third floors. In the memorial vestibule will be installed the mining museum, of ores and machinery and models of mine works.
The general plan of the building as drawn by John Calen Howard, supervising architect of the university, is that of a gridiron measuring 181x227 feet, with four late-rivers for light and air. "The exterior treatment," to quote Mr. Howard's own words, "is of an extremely simple, dignified character, based upon the classic tradition, but strongly influenced by the naive and charming work of the Spanish Fathers in this land, and like that work depending largely for its effect upon the careful proportioning of its voids and solids and upon its low roofs of heavy terra cotta tile overhanging broad unornamented surfaces of wall."
A Mining club has been organized by the students of the College of mining. Similar clubs, for the discussion of technical questions, for better acquaintance, for the stimulation of professional spirit, and for the hearing of lectures by leading men, have now been organised by the students of electrical and mechanical engineering, agriculture commerce, civil engineering, chemistry, and of the course preparatory for medicine.
HANDKERCHIEFS WE USE
$228,500,000 Single Ones Consumed By Trade Yearly In This Country.
"Very few people outside the trade said a leading wholesale dealer in New York to report correctly," "are aware that the condition of handkerchiefs throughout United States amounts to about 7 dozen daily. This means 27,370 dozen yearly, or 328,500,000 handkerchiefs. To satisfy this enquiry there are always kept in this city at least 850,000,000 handkerchiefs. It would be extremely difficult to say what such a supply of it is worth in the aggregate; as handkerchiefs sold at wholesale at any time from 80 cents to $40 per dozen; adding to quality and finish. But these which I have given you are exaggerated, and they throw a light on the gigantic dimensions important branch of the dry goods business.
"A comparatively small number handkerchiefs are manufactured in country, and those that are made are mostly of the cotton and silk variety. The finest silk goods imported principally from Japan, country sends us annually between 000,000 and 18,000,000 'Japanese gees.' The best cambric articles from France and Belgium, and handkerchiefs come from the north Ireland and also from St. Gall. Swain. Japanese silk handkerchiefs worth from $8 to $40 per dozen; the imported cambrics from Brussels for $5 to $7 a dozen; an cotton product manufactured insylvania and New Jersey may be for 30 cents per dozen.
"The capital invested in this business is immense. It may pay amount to $100,000,000 but owes fact that the trade is distressing nothing like accurate figures given. There are six or seven firs dry goods district which deal severely in handkerchiefs. But one of these houses handle the domestic title extensively. Most of the American factories are located out of the city, but New York, as in other branches of the dry goods business, is the greatest distributing centre."—Washington Star.

The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent:

But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California:
Counties: Acrees Los Angeles 85,644 Los Angeles 85,644 Orange 11,549 Orange 11,549 Riverside 32,847 Riverside 32,847 San Bernardino 37,877 San Bernardino 37,877 San Diego 16,022 San Diego 16,022
The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20,055, and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles.
Orange county thus contains one-fifth the area of Los Angeles; yet its irrigated lands approach in area to one-half those of its neighbor to the north.
Riverside embraces nine times its area, yet it irrigates 9000 more acres, or a fourth more than the belauded county on the east.
San Bernardino is 25 times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres exceed those of this jumbo county by nearly 4000, approximately ten percent.
San Diego is eleven times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres more than the county on the south—300 per cent is the former's irrigated area as compared with that of the latter—almost the irrigated area of San Diego and Riverside combined.
Orange county possesses the finest system of irrigation, the most secure water rights, that exist in Southern California. That is what we have said many a time and oft. These figures prove it. It is the handsomest and most productive county that lies outdoors and is settling up faster than any other in the State.
The excitement incident to traveling and the change of food and water often brings on diarrhoea, and for this reason no one should leave home without a bottle of Chamberlain's Cholle-Cholle.
A FIENDISH ATTACK
An attack was lately made on C. F. Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that nearly proved fatal. It came through his kidneys. His back got so lame he could not stoop without great pain, nor sit in a chair except propped by cushions. No remedy helped him until he tried Electric Bitters, which effected such a wonderful change that he writes like a new man. This marvelous medicine cures backache and kidney trouble, purifies the blood and builds up your health. Only 50 eat Hatzfeld's.
IRRIGATORS TROUBLES
R. H. Thompson as owner of 61 bonds of the Perris irrigation district on which some $8000 of interest was unaid procured judgment in the United States court in March, 1902, against the district for $8306.75. The irrigation act provides that if the directors of the district refuse or neglect to levy necessary taxes to pay interest on all bonds outstanding and not for a special levy for bonds held by one person; but the Court held otherwise and probably the United States court will order a levy to be made.
Answers were filed by the board and numerous taxpayers of Perris, alleging the illegal organization of the district, but the Court refused to entertain this defense, for Thompson was a purchaser of the bonds before due.
The writ of mandate issued by Judge Welborn ordering the supervisors to levy a tax sufficient to pay this amount of interest was last week vacated pending an appeal to the United States supreme court.
A Typical South African Store
O. R. Larson of Bay Villa, Sundays River, Cape Colony, conducts a store typical of South Africa, at which can be purchased anything from the provisional "needle to an anchor." This store is situated in a valley nine miles from the nearest railway station and about twenty-five miles from the nearest town. Mr. Larson says: "I am favored with the custom of farmers within a radius of thirty miles, to many of whom I have supplied Chamberlain's remedies. All testify to their value in a household where a doctor's advice is almost out of the question. Within one mile of my store the population is perhaps sixty. Of these, within the past twelve months, no less than fourteen have absolutely cured by charming work of the Spanish Fathers in this land, and like that work depending largely for its effect upon the careful proportioning of its voids and solids and upon its low roofs of heavy terra cotta tile overhanging broad unornamented surfaces of wall."
A Mining club has been organized by the students of the College of mining. Similar clubs, for the discussion of technical questions, for better acquaintance, for the stimulation of professional spirit, and for the hearing of lectures by leading men, have now been organised by the students of electrical and mechanical engineering, agriculture, commerce, civil engineering, chemistry, and of course preparatory for medicine.

Capt. Daniels, the Republican nominee for Congress for the new Eighth district, is not only a capable business man as well as an experienced legislator, but he is identified with the party in control of the national Congress. He therefore stands in a position to secure favorable legislation for the district. We certainly can expect more from him on account of such affiliations than we could from a representative identified with the party in the minority.

When the Lamp is Lit and the Children are in Bed
The tired mother gets out her mending basket and begins to darn the holes made in the hose by the restless feet of her little ones. It is so good to be quiet for a little she thinks. But very soon the over-wrought nerves assert themselves. She feels dizzy, her head throbs, and she has to lay aside the work and creep wearily to rest.
All work brings a natural weariness, a healthy tiredness. But there is a weariness which is not natural and a tiredness which is not healthy. The utterly worn-out feeling experienced by so many women is not due as a rule to the physical exhaustion of labor, but to the draining away of the strength by womanly diseases. Nervousness, headache, backache, and sleeplessness are but a few of the common results of such a diseased condition. Yet thousands of women suffer from womanly diseases for answered my letter then and told me what to do—I followed your advice, and to-day am cured. I tell everybody that with God's help, Dr. Pierce's medicines cured me. If these few words are of any use to you you are welcome to use them. They might help some other poor, suffering woman."
Mrs. Shearer's case is a fair example of the average cure effected by the use of "Favorite Prescription" both in the completeness and quickness of the cure. Of course, in complicated and chronic cases the cure may be slower but it is none the less sure if the medicine is faithfully used as directed. The records show that ninety-eight women in every hundred who have given "Favorite Prescription" a fair and faithful trial have been perfectly and permanently cured.
UNNATURAL CONDITIONS.
Every woman should remember that a diseased condition is unnatural. The natural condition of the womanly organism is a condition of health and "Favorite Prescription" works with nature on nature's lines to re-establish that condition of perfect health.
"I never courted newspaper notoriously," writes Mrs. E. A. Bender, of Keene, Coshocton Co., Ohio, "yet I am not afraid to speak a good word for 'Favorite Prescription' and 'Pleasant Pellets.' Over a year ago I suffered terribly for nearly four weeks with prolapse and weakness. After using one bottle of 'Favorite Prescription' and one of 'Pellets' I was a well woman. I have taken no medicine since and have had no symptoms of my former trouble. Have used the 'Favorite Prescription' at different times for more than four years and find it has no equal."
When the womanly health is re-established, the general health at once improves. There is no more backache or headache. The nerves are quiet, the sleep is sound and the appetite natural.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription establishes regularity, dries the drains which weaken women, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. It is the best preparative for maternity, giving muscular strength and elasticity and rendering the baby's advent practically painless. As a tonic for weak and "run-down" women it is unequaled, and nursing mothers will find it superior to beer or any of the
Organ Music and Organs Playing.
Organ music reached its climax with Bach. It may perhaps be said that all music did. At any rate, one thing is certain—viz, if there has been any program in music since the day of Bach, it has been due to him. Bach's music is phonetic, and polyphony is true music. To its foundation upon this tool is due the fact that there has been no decadence in music in Germany. There has been no advance in phonology since the days of Bach. Such advance as has been made has been in originality and boldness of modulation. For pure organ music Bach still is probably will always remain the test of all composers. Even with the modern mechanical appliances that have been attached to the organ, works are still very difficult—perhaps the most difficult of organ compositions. He must have been as great an artist as he was a composer. That he should have been able to play upon the man of his day works so exacting in uniqueness as his own is simply marvelous.
It is one of the phenomena of musical history that, while orchestral, operatic or other branches of music were in infancy in Bach's day and have developed since then, Bach brought ornamentation to its climax. He was not the full source whence flowed a rivulet which in time was to expand into a broad stream; he was the broad stream itself. The word "Bach" in German means a brook, which led a famous German composer to say punningly that his great master was not a Bach, but a ocean. —Forum.
