MAKING GOOD ROADS Statistics recently compiled by the department of agriculture at Washington show that there are nearly 2,500,000 miles of public roads in this country, only a small percentage of which are improved. Necessarily it will be many years before a large percentage of this great mileage will be improved; and in the meantime it is of the utmost importance that we make the best possible use of the facilities at hand. An expenditure of nearly $80,000,000 per annum is being applied to the maintenance of these roads, and it is safe to say that the loss from improper methods is well up in the millions. There are certain principles which underlie the art of road building and maintenance, and certain methods known to many engineers and road builders which are easily understood and as easily put in practice. Unfortunately, these simple principles and meth- There are certain principles which underlie the art of road building and maintenance, and certain methods known to many engineers and road builders which are easily understood and as easily put in practice. Unfortunately, these simple principles and methods are not universally known. The press is the only agency through which it is possible to reach every road district in the country and insure a general consideration of the subject. A series of interesting articles upon the subject, prepared by experts employed by the department of agriculture, will shortly appear in these columns. Now that a plan to bond the county in a large sum for paved highways is before the people for discussion, these articles will be found to possess an inherent interest which will be particularly valuable at this time: The state board of equalization has served notice upon the supervisors of Orange county that it intends to increase the assessment roll of this county for the current year, and has cited the board to appear before it on Monday next to show cause why such raise shall not be made. The supervisors will send a committee to Sacramento to argue the point with the state equalizers. San Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and other Southern California counties have also been cited for a raise. A warm time is developing in the fight to erect the new county of San Antonio out of parts of Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. The latter county appears to object seriously to dismemberment, but participation would make debate of national importance, has responded with serious that he will come up to debate with any man, the environment's forest policy. others who have been invited themselves, either by ipating in person or by seeing that the issue is properly pre-are United States Senator of Nebraska, Governor Frank Oklahoma, Senator La Folk Wisconsin, Senator Spoone consin, Senator Nelson of sota, and Murdo MacKenzue ident of the American Livestock association of Colorado. Among the opponents of institution policies who have addressed in the matter are Senator Heyburn of Idaho,erner Brooks of Wyoming,nor Buchtel of Colorado, Commissioner Mondell of Wyoming,gressman Cushman of Washington and other prominent men. Charles Allgeyer reports the crop at Brookshurst to be in full condition, promising a better yield last season. He finds blight ing, and notes a peculiar relation thereto. He states that which are thus affected are a year after year, while as many dozen trees surrounding them drop a nut, being unaffected w blight. The trees attacked parently as vigorous as any in chard, having excellent foliage every appearance of being in condition. Yet these suffer the growth of their nuts, in quantities, year after year. Alongside of them have never y attacked. Mr. Allgeeyer contends purchasing an additional thirty of walnuts, and will also go in sively for cabbage raising. Ed and Fred Schneider of the meat market have returned f A warm time is developing in the fight to erect the new county of San Antonio out of parts of Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. The latter county appears to object seriously to dismemberment, but the tenor of voters in the segregated district appears to be in favor of division. At a recent meeting of divisionists Daniel Deerkee, who favors division, passed out the lie direct to a party of Bardoo boosters, and made the statement that San Bernardino, with less the assessed property valuation of Orange and Riverside counties combined, had a more expensive county government than both these two other counties combined. San Antonio county seems a certainty. What's the latest about that $600,000 bond stew for paved county roads around Santa Ana? Willie Winsell, Andy Fuhrberg and Ben Cook leave on the first for a twenty-days hunting trip to Smith mountain in San Diego county, and neighboring points. They go by way of Corona and the Temecula canyon. They will visit the Cuyamaca mountains and return by the coast route. They go in search of deer, as well as smaller game and look forward to an enjoyable camping trip.

Each tried to put the lid upon the municipality the preceding day, by imbibing all the liquor in the town. While upon the very point of succeeling, they fell, pierced by the deadly highball of commerce. The kindly justice handed a $5 fine to the man from the orange fields, for had he not come far from a dry town, and the wetting of his whistle at the limpid stream that flows by Heitshausen’s was condoned on promise of future abstention from the bowl whitch bites and stings like serpents and adders. The other man was fined in the penal sum of ten circulating pilasters, for the judge held, living as the man did in Anaheim, that he had no business to get drunk. So ended the court’s morning lesson.

Inspector Montanya of the rural delivery service was in town this week in consultation with Postmaster Duckworth relative to Route No. 5, to be established southeast of this city, as well as a prospective route southwest, toward Garden Grove. Both routes were gone over. Route No. 5 was approved and papers forwarded to Washington. It will probably be established and mail delivered to subscribers in the near future. Mr. Montanya tacitly approved the other route, but as the number of signatures were not sufficient no official action was taken thereupon. Postmaster Duckworth drove the inspector over the route merely to inform him upon the situation. There is no doubt the route will be recom-mended by Mr. Montanya on his next Allgeyer reports the walnutokshurst to be in fine concluding a better yield than He finds blight decreases a peculiar incident inveto.

The work is light, the hours short—only seven hours a day—thus affording ample opportunity to study law, medicine, etc., out of business hours. Many do this and save enough from their salaries to retire and go into business for themselves after a few years. Although well paid, stenographers are most in demand—so much so that special examinations have to be held every year and practically all who make a passing grade, 70 per cent, are given appointments at $900 to $1800 a year to begin with, and allowed 30 days annual leave of absence, and often 30 days sick leave, both on full pay. The San Bernardino Business College has made arrangements with the U.S. Government to hold there the regular semi-annual Civil Service examinations, thus affording its students the double advantage of making their preparation and passing their examination at the same place. This is said to be the only school in California making a specialty of training for the U.S. Civil Service and assisting young people to secure government positions. This paper suggests that a number of our young people should take advantage of the opportunities now offered to prepare for and secure a good government position. The Misses Laura and Beryl Munhall of Orange spent several days this week at the home of Capt. Williams on Center street. The young ladies are nieces of Mr. Jos. Schwab, a prominent man of Pittsburg, Pa.
