BUENA PARK A very pleasant surprise was tendered Mrs. Wm. Goldie Friday afternoon, in the form of an apron shower, the occasion being her birthday. She was showered with a dozen aprons. Refreshment were served in the dining-room. Everybody reported a pleasant time. Mrs. S. J. Moon has rented her place and moved to Los Angeles to reside. John McDonald and family have taken up their residence in Pasadena. Jos. Speidel and wife contemplate taking a trip to the Portland fair and other points of interest north. Frank Whitaker, formerly of the Park, and Miss Gertrude Johnson of San Francisco were married in the latter city on Friday. Mr. McComber has returned from his trip to the northern part of the state. Mr. and Mrs. Bert Whitaker returned Tuesday from a two weeks trip to Lake Tahoe. The business men of the Park are heartily in favor of the electric road building through the Park and connecting Fullerton, Anaheim and Orange with the line at Santa Ana. There would be no trouble to get a right of way through here, and the enterprising citizens will do all in their power to induce the electric company to put the Park on their line. Los Alamitos will soon be connected with the Park by telephone. Harry Whitaker intends shortly to secure enough phones in the Carmenita country to annex them also with the central office here. Mrs. McKaughan presented her husband a bouncing pair of twin girls on Thursday. Rev. J. K. Hubbard closed his first Los Alamitos will soon be connected with the Park by telephone. Harry Whitaker intends shortly to secure enough phones in the Carmenita country to annex them also with the central office here. Mrs. McKaughan presented her husband a bouncing pair of twin girls on Thursday. Rev. J. K. Hubbard closed his first conference year in the Methodist church on Sunday. The conference met in Los Angeles on Tuesday to appoint the ministers to their respective charges. D. J. Jaynes is entertaining friends from the east. The Pacific creamery on Oct. 1 will commerce repairing the factory. The machinery needs overhauling and much new machinery is to be installed. It will require about three months to accomplish this work and during that time the factory will be operated with a reduced number of employees. Mr. Wilcox denies the report that his people have bought the Smith skimming station, and adds further that after the first of the year the Pacific will start up with renewed vigor and continue the sterilizing of their famous Lily cream on a larger scale than ever. Between 75 and 100 cans of milk are shipped from here daily and that will be the amount to go out every morning for the next three months. Agent Kennedy has always been a busy man and with this extra duty thrust upon him, which is an arduous task, he is rightfully of the opinion that he should have an assistant during these busy traintimes. "Jocky" McKaughan has a Wilke's filly, by Wandering Boy, 16 months old, that promises well. The colt lacks three-quarters of an inch of standing 15 hands high and will trot a mile easily under four minutes. In another year the colt goes on the tract, and looks good to Mac. The new county road has been passed upon favorably by the viewers, but a sum of about $350 is needed to erect fences along certain portions of the highway, for which no provision has been made. The supervisors refuse to furnish the funds and it is up to the projectors of the new road to build the fences. The county agrees to grade and oil the road. As the highway will be a decided improvement it is very probable the sum referred to above will be forthcoming. The fresh deciduous shipment year will bring into the state $4,000,000. "Grapes, apples and a few peaches are now being grown. The weather at present is ideal grape shipments. The demand and prices are satisfactory." Short Courses in Agriculture The Agricultural Department University of California has no usual preparation to render these short courses in various branches of agriculture attractive and hence many classes of producers. Short Courses are open without limitation to men and women of all who desire to spend a few weeks earnest effort to gain some knowledge of agricultural science and in practice—particular emphasis laid, of course, upon the practical there is no charge for instructing pupils merely providing for travel expenses and board at Berkeley—except in Dairy Co., which a small fee is required to cost of material used. This Short Courses will have a new in the fact that they are co-operation with various states' organizations of agriculturalists who represented in both the lecture and discussions. The subjects in instruction will be given are following: 1. Fruit Growing, including insects and plant diseases. 2. General Agriculture and Animal Industry, including The new county road has been passed upon favorably by the viewers, but a sum of about $350 is needed to erect fences along certain portions of the highway, for which no provision has been made. The supervisors refuse to furnish the funds and it is up to the projectors of the new road to build the fences. The county agrees to grade and oil the road. As the highway will be a decided improvement it is very probable the sum referred to above will be forthcoming. Fruit Industry Prospering Alden Anderson, manager of the California fruit distributors, says the report sent from San Francisco as to the number of cars of fresh fruit shipped to the east was erroneous because it did not give the full number of cars shipped, and that the figures were evidently just those of cars shipped over one road. In speaking of the matter to a representative of the Associated Press, Mr. Anderson said, "The report sent out from San Francisco stating that, up to September 15th, 4000 cars of green fruit had been shipped east, was erroneous and misleading, inasmuch as it is several hundred cars below the actual number shipped. "Up to and including September 20, there were shipped from this state a total of 5581 cars of fresh fruit, or a figure approaching forty-five cars of the total shipments of last year. There are yet to go forward from 2300 to 3000 cars, a great deal depending upon the weather conditions and the selling prices. "It is true some districts and some varieties of fruit were short, but in speaking of the fruit industry of the state as a whole, this will be the best year the industry has ever enjoyed."

That is the reason we can get it cheaper than they got theirs some time ago. We are not pretending to say what they paid for their system some time ago. The city does not pretend to pay more than is necessary for depreciation in price of apparatus due to the rapid advancement of the art of making gas from crude petroleum. It is probable that the city will have to pay enough for this item as it is. The real cost of the machinery and erection of a gas plant by and by when the industry is settled down, will probably be in the neighborhood of $3000, including gas holder, but without the building or distributing system.

Courses in Agriculture. cultural Department of the of California has made unration to render this year's uses in various branches of attractive and helpful to uses of producers. These uses are open without examen and women of all ages, to spend a few weeks in an art to gain some knowledge of science and improved particular emphasis being upon the practical side.

It is probable that the city will have to pay enough for this item as it is. The real cost of the machinery and erection of a gas plant by and by when the industry is settled down, will probably be in the neighborhood of $3000, including gas holder, but without the building or distributing system. My statement originally made before the board was that the city could put up a plant now to do the same work for the same cost for $12,000, or practically it could be duplicated for that sum. The communication also says: "According to figures in last week's Gazette, the total investment at Gilroy for buying an old style gas machine and fixing it over, leaving a poor outfit, is $25,000." Turning on the searchlights, we find the following facts: Cost of buying out the private company in 1902, which was then generating coal gas, $15,000; cost of installing a new oil gas generator Nov. 1, 1903, $3600; Balance added cost of distributing system, tools, etc., from 1902 to date (estimated) $6400; total investment to date, $25,000. Now, Gilroy has 6 miles of distributing system, and 230 consumers, so that their system outside the works should be worth about $13,000; add the new oil gas generator above, $3600; add for holder, etc., $2000; add for old coal gas generator discarded, $3600; amount paid old company for the "good will of the business;" franchises, etc., $2600; total, $25,000. Furthermore, the question is asked, "How can Anaheim expect to buy a new, up-to-date plant in every respect for $13,500, when Gilroy has spent $25,000 and Santa Clara $38,650?" The answer is partly given above. The greater part of the cost of a gas system lies in its distributing system. Anaheim has 19,000 feet of distributing mains and fittings, while Gilroy has 32,000 feet. Santa Clara sells twice the gas that Gilroy does, and, it is reasonable to assume, has at least 50 per cent more length and cost distributing mains, or about $20,000. The city of Santa Clara has also a street lighting system of posts and taps and extensive works, easily worth the balance, or $18,650, which is only a little more than the Anaheim Gas Co. would wish to charge the city for the generating plant and holder combined. Finally, it may be said that the city's engineers have not made a snap judgment at the price of a gas works, but their estimates are made only after careful investigation, and they have definite, substantiating figures. There are quite good prospects now of my going up to Oregon sometime in the near future, and if so, I will stop at Gilroy and Santa Clara, and there will not be a bone of contention left when I Growing, including injury and plant diseases; October 31st.
