C. E. of the Presbyter-gave a very successful so-home of Mrs. Ella P. Rea on morning, Dec. 1st. The pro-ms follows: Miss Alice Grimshaw Miss Edith Wallop Miss Elsie Aubert Miss Lola Duckworth Harold Pellegrin Henry Burdorf, the well-known Fullerton walnut grower, was in town on Saturday. Mr. Burdorf's trees bore a comparatively heavy crop and he marketed through the association at satisfactory profit. His orchard has little blight, but he notices the disease seems to be steadily expanding in its attacks upon the nut and other fruit trees throughout the state, not only in Southern California, but in the north as well. He attributes the blight to the depredations of a fly which operates in July and August. These insects are not Thrips, but a black fly resembling a miniature scorpion. He believes that the indiscriminate shooting of doves and quail has had much to do with the spread of the blight. Several years ago he had in his walnut orchard, he estimates, not less than 2000 doves, and no blight, for the birds destroyed the insects. Now that the birds have been slaughtered the insects thrive, and he is of opinion that a law should be passed protecting them. There is a point here which has not hitherto been brought out in relation to the walnut blight, and which merits the attention of the grower. Willie Kogler, manager of A. Nagel's hardware emporium and plumbing establishment, desires us to correct an item appearing in a local publication about the leaks occurring in the Odd Fellows block the night of the Abhlorn fire. The statement that the leaks were caused by defective plumbing, Willie states, is incorrect, the damage being caused, he adds, by the heavy fire pressure upon the pipes, which loosened the slip joint. This frequently happens, he informs us, in new plumbing, and in further proof of his assertion points to the fact that at least a dozen leaks resulted the same evening. The usual pressure upon the pipes is 15 pounds to the square inch, while fire pressure raises it to 140 pounds. Willie seems to have the best of the argument. He declares no plumbing is done by his house unless it be strictly first-class in every respect; and that the plumbing in the Odd Fellows temple comprises thirty-five acres southwest of town, highly improved, some of it set to walnuts, the whole being of the approximate value of $25,000. Mr. Staples is indignant at the action of his daughter and announces his intention of contesting her application in court. Ted Dickel has shown us live impressario looks like, a good turn deserves another have Chiaffarelli come again could be only one fault to Monday evening's programme is that it wasn't long enough.

The visitor was down to Orange where he purchased a walnut grove and will take up his residence there. Judge Shanley tried hard to locate Mr. Munhall here, but the walnut groves at Orange caught his eye and there he decided to locate. He has a family, including two girls attending high school.
