City Trustees The city trustees met in regular session on Thursday evening with Trustees Rust, Kroeger, Darling, Stock and Fiscus present. Street superintendent reported water connections made to new residences and streets being oiled. Engineer at powerhouse submitted report of work performed, including cleaning of the water tanks. The ordinance creating a board of health and the appointment of a health officer, passed second reading and laid over until next meeting, to allow the trustees time to appoint a health officer and affix salary for same. Resolution of intention No. 68, ordering the opening of Oak street extension was duly passed and adopted. The following building permits were granted: Edward L. Geisel, dwelling on West Broadway; cost $600. Elizabeth Betz, building on County Road and Burton avenue; cost $200. Bruce Anson, two dwellings on Cypress streets; cost of each $500. Ella S. Watson, building on South Los Angeles street; $200. J. H. Boney, addition to building, South Los Angeles street; $100. Same, addition to building, Walnut street, $400. C. L. Becher, alter building on Hedwig street; $300. The fixing of building permit rates was referred to finance committee. Mrs. Jos. desGranges having refused to accept money from the Broadway-widening commissioners, her apportionment for land taken for widening that thoroughfare, a resolution was passed and adopted ordering a condemnation suit to proceed in the superior court. All other property owners on the street have complied with the legal requirements relative to the proposed widening of Broadway, and this action Walnut Growers' Institute The following official program has been arranged for the special walnut growers' institute to be held at Whittier June 5th and 6th: WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5. 10 a.m.-Introductory, Dr. J.

Mrs. Jos. desGranges having refused to accept money from the Broadway-widening commissioners, her apportionment for land taken for widening that thoroughfare, a resolution was passed and adopted ordering a condemnation suit to proceed in the superior court. All other property owners on the street have complied with the legal requirements relative to the proposed widening of Broadway, and this action against the lady is the only recourse left the city. Insurance covering the city water works and powerhouse expires June 12. The clerk was instructed to reinsure the same. Adolph Rimpau was granted permission to lay water pipe on Santa Fe street. Whereas Messrs. Emmett & Dyer, asked permission to cease digging operations in the new wellpit and commence putting in the cement walls and floors, the request was granted. The contractors have the wellpit down to a depth of over 50 feet—3 feet 2 inches below water line. Their contract calls for 5 feet. Under existing conditions, according to persons reckoned competent to judge, the former depth can safely be relied upon for the future city water supply, inasmuch as there now stands in the well 14 feet of water with every promise of its raising. The work of putting in the cement encasement will proceed with all possible haste. Bills to the amount of $1511 40 were paid and the board adjourned. Suppressed Information In a small town in the heart of the blue grass region of Missouri two veterans of the old guard were fighting again the battles of the '60s. The grenadier of the north was shy an arm, while the musketeer of the south used a crutch. The fact that they had fought on different sides made not the slightest particle of difference in their friendship. The union soldier frankly admitted that Lee was a great general. Not to be outdone in generosity, the southern warmly praised General Grant for his persistence. "Any other man but General Grant needed to be taken up by pathological laboratory—C. C.

Not to be outdone in generosity, the southerner warmly praised General Grant for his persistence. "Any other man but General Grant would have committed suicide after the disaster at Cold Harbor," said he who had been a "rebel." "But he kept at it until Bob Lee had to crawl back to Petersburg," returned the "Yankee," a trifle warm. "Yes, and Grant paved the way with his dead soldiers!" said the southerner, his eyes glowing animatedly. "He got some few of you fellers while doing it," retorted the soldier of the north grimly. "What about Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville? How many 'Yanks' bit the dust there, eh?" "And how many 'Johnnies' at Vicksburg and Gettysburg?" asked the union man sarcastically. "I don't care—take it altogether we killed more of you fellers than you did of us." "But we did whip you—you got to admit that." "Yes I guess you did," replied the southern musketeer, slowly; "but if we'd a known how near you 'Yanks' was played out we'd held on one more day, and then where'd you a been, I'd like to know? You kept it hid from us, you did, and that's the smartest thing you did in the whole blamed war!"

Threatened Flour Famine Portland, May 24.—Flour famine threatens the entire Pacific Coast. There is not a single barrel available for foreign equipment during the next month from any of the Pacific Coast milling concerns. Portland produces more flour than any other coast port, but its supply the present time are low down. Great shortage is due entirely to enormous demand. The aggregate amount of flour orders that have been accepted by the milling trade fully double that of all previous orders. One reason for this unusual heavy demand from the Orient is that, when this year's wheat crop was being ground into flour, the central supply of flour was practically exhausted. Following this, came the famine Japan. This caused the importation of a much larger amount of flour into country than usual and shipments here were augmented by similar conditions in China. "Your information from Portland exaggerated, so far as Southern California is concerned," said Gilbert Gay, assistant manager of the Los Angeles Farmers and Milling company to a newspaper reporter.

"These high prices are due to the condition of the wheat market, but the export trade does not influence the Los Angeles market at all. In California, flour manufacturers are dependent on Oregon and Washington as well as on Kansas for their wheat. Indirectly, through our northern supply of raw material, the export question enters into the situation, but not to any great extent. The meat of the matter is that prices must be high for flour when we have to pay from $2 to $2.05 a hundred for wheat. December wheat now at $1,034 a bushel and stock wheat brings a dollar. That's what is the matter with the flour market. There is an increased demand for export flour for the Orient, but I do not believe that unusual prices are offered and, at any rate, the market here is not directly affected." America's Amazing Advance Until we learn to think in billions we cannot measure the meaning of the material development of the United States during the last quarter of a century; much less can we mentally grasp the potentialities which the coming years have in store for us. Yet our progress has only been the pioneering work of clearing the wilderness, of ploughing and planting amid the stumps which mark the new land of the settler. Not yet have we had time to pull the stumps and drain the swamps. What we have been doing is like sowing by hand and gathering our harvests with the old sickle as compared with what we are now preparing to do. In our pioneering work we have had to disregard permanency to meet the immediate needs of the hour. We have had to make haste even though it meant some waste.

Red Flour Famine 24 — Flour famine yet have we had time to pull the stumps and drain the swamps. What we have been doing is like sowing by hand and gathering our harvests with the old sickle as compared with what we are now preparing to do. In our ploneering work we have had to disregard permanency to meet the immediate needs of the hour. We have had to make haste even though it meant some waste. However, like the pioneer who built his rude log hut and tilled the stump-ridden soil until increasing gains made possible the building of a better home and the clearing of his land in order to utilize labor-saving implements, we had to pursue similar methods in our national development until now, when we have entered upon a period where scientific farming will take the place of old soil-destroying farming and where scientific skill in manufacturing will mean changes as radical as those which mark the difference in farming methods. All that we have done in this work of material upbuilding has been the perfectly logical working out of conditions which have surrounded us, conditions which in no wise need give us any concern, nor for a moment be considered as pessimistic in their tendency. For instance, in the development of our iron industry, Pennsylvania first made pig iron from the most cheaply mined ores, and then gradually advanced from pig iron to steel and the fine products of steel. Alabama has sometimes been criticised for selling its pig iron to Northern and Western shops and buying it back in the shape of machinery and locomotives. That, however, is only the natural course in the evolution of business. Under the old conditions it was just as much the natural order of events for the Western farmer to work his prairie soil and the Southern planter his cotton land in a way to get the largest immediate results. Nothing else than what we have done in this way could have been expected by anyone who looked at these things from any other than a superficial point of view. Now a point has been reached where it can be seen that all that has gone before is but the preparation for the real work of national growth—growth in agriculture, in manufacturing, in mining, and in all the other varied business interests of the country. In studying the material advance- Our specialties including IncumGROCERIES—A v Ice Cream, Soft Drink and Stationery. Any Patronage CHAS. LANGE, other industries. Even without any migration cotton production was not time in advance of the world's rements. The inevitable result is serious decline in the price of farm products. Not until industrial growth made great advance, increasing proportion of consumers to the number of farm producers, was there any cided improvement in the financial dition of farmers as a class. With the last ten years a change as well as that which has marked thress of manufactures has come. In its far-reaching effect upon the continued prosperity of the country serves more attention than it has received. The value of all farm products and the number of people engaged agriculture at different periods, ning with 1870 and running to 1905 as follows: VALUE OF ALL FARM PROPERTY Year.

"The flour od, speaking from the In studying the material advancement of the United States one is amazed at the marvelous progress of the last quarter of a century. Even 10 years ago the heart of man could never have conceived the magnitude of the development of today. But looking at this in the light of the world-wide revolution in business now in progress, considering our unique geographical position midway between Europe and Asia and the vastness of our resources beyond the power of man to describe, and bearing in mind the forces which today are making for the intensest human activities ever known, it will be realized what the future has in store for us, are but as the gentle shower of an April day in comparison with the mighty downpour of the summer rain. THE FARMER COMING INTO HIS OWN. When the construction of railroads, built largely through the aid of land grants, opened to settlement the extensive prairies of the West, agriculture was pushed more rapidly than the industrial advance of the country justified. With the rush of thousands of foreign immigrants to that section and the movement from the East, there was brought about an increase in agricultural products, especially in wheat and corn and live stock, in advance of The striking fact in this latter is the small increase in the var farm products between 1870 and and the enormous increase since In the former period there was of but little over $500,000,000 in annual value of farm output, whtween 1890 and 1900 the gain was four and a half times as great, 250,000,000. The value of the products of 1900 was largely more double that of 1890, though the in during that period in the num people engaged in agriculture was 35 per cent. Remarkable as was gain, it is since 1900, however, th improvement in agricultural tions has been almost startling extent. Between that year with tal value of $4,717,000,000 and there was a gain of $1,700,000,00 great was this progress that years the increase alone was equal to the total output of the of the country in 1870 and nearly cent of the total even as late as Walk on Easy Street Get rid of that painful corn or bunion When relief and cure are to be o Indian Corn Leaf will do the work quickly and without a particle of pain.
