AMERICAN BEAUTY BUTTER Something Wrong About It from Start—Works Close Down—Manager Departs The American Dairy company has left town, and the white slippered young men who came as its backers will be seen no more upon our streets, the envy of all our dark-eyed beauties. While the two young men backing the creamery were real sweet young chappies, the creamery had a dubious look about it from the start. When representatives of the dairy company arrived and announced their purpose of going extensively into the manufacture of butter they were well received, despite their white slippers, by the citizens, who saw a profitable venture in store for the new company. The Stern warehouse near the Santa Fe depot was leased, and the orange association, with its large force of graders and packers, moved out. The premises were renovated and repainted, a large refrigerator constructed, a neat office partitioned off, typewriter and telephone installed, and entire southern part of the city he expected to do a big business had purchased ninety different of butter on sale in Los Angeles had found them all upon analysis contaminated with poisonous pounds worked into them. Pany was going in for pure butter would soon be turning out more butter than any establishment state. Meanwhile preparations for making went forward with genuineness, when one day Mr. nounced his refrigerator, which said was the largest butter maker in Southern California, or 10,000 pounds of butter. Similarly half-page advertisement ed in the Los Angeles newspaper the American Beauty butter put up in pound packages, we upon the market. This butter was first shipped from Los Angeles, processed upon the market as pure butter. When taken from the erator its taste was apparent enough for anyone, and did not rancid the first thing in the like so many other brands creamery butter have a bad doing. In a day or two Marx health drop. The United State government was about to get after putting spurious butter on the manufacture of butter they were well received, despite their white slippers, by the citizens, who saw a profitable venture in store for the new company. The Stern warehouse near the Santa Fe depot was leased, and the orange association, with its large force of graders and packers, moved out. The premises were renovated and repainted, a large refrigerator constructed, a neat office partitioned off, typewriter and telephone installed, and some machinery shipped down. Manager Marx, a natty young man in short sleeves, peekaboo shirtwaist and white slippers, announced in a few days with languid air that he was unable to receive his machinery promptly from the east. It seemed to be stalled on the road, but he expected it would arrive shortly. Up to this time not a single contract for milk or cream had been entered into, nor in fact was any such contract seemingly desired. The company had apparently gone to some little expense in fitting up their "creamery," which appeared neat and clean in its new dress of light gray paint, yet had entirely overlooked the very foundation of their business—milk and cream as a basis for their operations. Mr. Wilhelm announced his company would use an absurdly large amount of milk and cream daily—more than the entire output of the county—and when asked where he was going to get it, replied his company controlled twenty-three creameries at various points, he did not say where, and airily replied the milk situation did not concern him a particle.

The committee says it has established by chemical tests that the particular renovated butter, sold as the real stuff, contains only 44 per cent of butter fat, the other 56 per cent being water, cheap gelatine, brine, skim milk and foreign by-products. The charge is that the renovating concern buys up odds and ends of stale butter at depreciated prices, chucks the daily mass into a big pot, melts the stuff down, adds water for weight, gelatine for body and milk for cause, cools the conglomerate mixture and presses it into molds, puts the forms up neatly in parafined paper and sells the renovated substance as standard butter in the Los Angeles market. For such sins against the body politic and gastronomic the government of the United States provides punishment by heavy fine or imprisonment, or both, according to the discretion and after-breakfast temper of the court. Likewise the State of California provides a penalty to be visited upon such shams, but in a less degree. The law does not say that renovated butter shall not be sold; it does say that it shall not be sold as standard butter. The requirement is that the warning "Renovated. Butter," in letters one inch high, shall be stamped on the paper within which the pale mass is folded. Many truly great movements proceed from east to west. Even so the pure-butter campaign.

WALLACE, Prop. The law does not say that renovated butter shall not be sold; it does say that it shall not be sold as standard butter. The requirement is that the warning “Renovated. Butter,” in letters one inch high, shall be stamped on the paper within which the pale mass is folded. Many truly great movements proced from east to west. Even so the pure-butter campaign. Of late政 vernment inspectors in the east and Middle West have been condemning from 20 to 25 per cent of the cold-storage butter. At last the reformation has struck Los Angeles. There were in cold storage in that city on the first day of the present month 1,680,000 pounds of butter, dairy and creamery. Of this huge mass 750,000 pounds came from the east. The other 930,000 pounds were produced in Southern California and the San Joaquin valley, fully 35 per cent of the yearly quantity consumed in Los Angeles being produced in the nine southernmost counties of the state. For the total butter on hand in that city September 1st the inhabitants will pay in round figures $500,000. So pure butter is a pretty important watchword, if only in the financial sense alone. Eight thousand pounds of the bread-spreader are turned out of the dairies and creameries of Southern California every day. The impending prosecution of the alleged renovators has three horns that may constitute a dilemma. As renovated butter is dutiable to the United States under the internal revenue law, the internal revenue inspector at San Francisco thinks he should be consulted. State Inspector Starr, whose energy as an instigator of prosecutions is questioned in some quarters, would like, it is said, to handle the affair himself. And there is Lawler, who is already been brought in. And clear around the administrative triangle the board of trade has stretched a cordon of guardsmen; so it's a fair gamble the renovators are bagged. A visit was at once paid the creamery. Marx was found in unamiable mood. He had advertised for milk contracts and none came. He was going to close up his works because he could not get enough milk and cream to work upon. He wanted more milk than the entire county produced. He was going to Imperial, which he had heard was a great country, or to Nevada—Nevada, he said, was a great state. He had not seen the article in the Los Angeles paper. It did not refer to his company, which was backed by millions. Marx was disturbed—it was plain to see that. He dived into the office and began talking into the telephone. Friends ran to her assistSophia stopped her vehicle her sister’s aid. The injulady was assisted to her driven home.

Several bill collectors ambushed the youth before he boarded the cars. Then Constable Llewellyn served Marx with an attachment issued by Gardner & Co. for $75 worth of ice furnished the creamery. Marx turned over the keys to the officer. The bill was subsequently paid. All bills, so far as known, were paid. And so another great industry went by the boards. Mr. and Mrs. N.

The two were driving leisurely along their met a Russian driving in an open direction. They turned to the other vehicle, when a collision occurred, and Miss Marie was to the ground under her buggies. She was stunned by the lack of presence of mind sufficient to cause herself from what might have proven fatal injuries. As the wheel was about to pass over her seized the spokes and re-enslifted from harm's way, when she passed over her body, cut and bruising her in several cuts ran to her assistance. Miss Rimpau stopped her vehicle and went to her aid. The injured young girl was assisted to her buggy and home.

Bank's Fine Showing The financial statement issued this week by the First National bank shows deposits aggregating $328,898 and total resources amounting to $406,698. This is the high-water mark shown by this sterling institution, which for several years past shows a steady increase in its deposits and financial resources. The First National must be regarded as among the most solid financial institutions in Southern California, and its fine showing is cause for congratulation for its officers and directors. The bank is in personal charge of John Hartung, one of Anaheim's oldest and best known citizens. His assistants, Miss Olga Zeus and O. Storm, wait upon customers with customary affability, and the bank's friends increase daily. Its president is W. F. Botsford of Los Angeles, one of the leading financiers.
