TRADE CONDITIONS. R. G. Dun & Co's. Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for September in Southern California. The price returns for the agricultural products of this section continue to exceed expectations. Crop failures in Europe and the Eastern States have created a keen market for all California products. Prices are uniformly high; in some instances 25 per cent over former years. The wineries are now working full capacity and a shortage of drying trays is reported from raisin districts. The fig crop is larger than that of last year, and the olive output for 1907 will be three times that of 1906. The celery crop is coming to maturity at least two weeks earlier than last season. It is large, extra fine quality, and yield is expected to reach 3,500 car loads. Shipments will begin last of this month. Vegetable shippers succeeded in getting a rate of compromise from the transcontinental lines of one half the proposed freight advance. The walnut yield is falling about 80 car loads below last year's output, but crop is being priced higher than ever before in the history of this industry—14 to 15 cents per pound. A price strengthener lies in the fact that foreign crop is short. The bean harvest is in full swing. The crop of limas will probably fall 160,000 sacks under early estimates, owing to unusually light yield per acre. For the first time in many years spot stocks are entirely cleaned up. Buyers are very active, paying as high as $4.95 a central at thresher. Growers Minutes of Water Anaheim, Cal. Regular meeting of the directors of the A. U. W. following members present Directors Crowther, Drake McLaughlin and Sherwood The minutes of the reg of September 7 and the se of September 23 were proved. A report from H. C. Hinging the conditions connected grade and construction of way pipe line was received on file and the secretary led to forward a copy to officials of Anaheim. The reports of the services were received and filed. A communication from David Yorba offered Cota tract. On motion that part of not required by the zanj was rented to Porter and $2.00 per acre. On motion the president were authorized to sell of the company the Department for Lot for an office W. Co., and the secretary ed to place the same on it. A communication from Holverson complained that of adjoining land in the district had plowed up a parcel W. Co. ditch through which his water and asked that see that it is restored to condition. On motion the matter to the attorney with write to the said party and that he must not further our ditch, and further the store to its former condition referred to. before in the history of this industry 14 to 15 cents per pound. A price strengthener lies in the fact that foreign crop is short. The bean harvest is in full swing. The crop of limas will probably fall 100,000 sacks under early estimates, owing to unusually light yield per acre. For the first time in many years spot stocks are entirely cleaned up. Buyers are very active, paying as high as $4.95 a cental at thresher. Growers are now asking 5c and talking a probable 6c. Blackeyes are bringing $3.50 to $4.00. The sugar campaigns at the various factories are progressing favorably. The beet tonnage is running more than expected and percentage of sugar content is unusually high. The fruit and vegetable canners of this section report that their plants this season could meet but small proportion of demand, although in mary cases the output was double that of last year. Higher prices have been received than ever before. It is early yet for any accurate estimates of coming orange crop, but most growers agree that the yield will exceed that of last year. The dried fruit market shows little change. There is little improvement in demand for peaches and apricots but holders remain firm on quotations. The prune market is strong, but Southern California stock this year runs small and this fact is affecting sales. The raisin market is unsettled and opinions on the situation are far apart. Meanwhile prices to growers range about the same—51-4 to 51-2 cents, and shipments are being freely made. Quotations rule easy at 81-4 to 83-4 cents for fancy seeded. Loose muscatels 63-4 to 73-4. The spot market is bare of California products. The importations of foreign stock are not large enough under present conditions to materially effect conditions. To a disinterested observer it looks as if the raisin crop should go into consumption easily at present prices. Locally business, both retail and wholesale, is reported satisfactory. Country collections have been satisfactory; city collections not up to what they should be. The realty business is quiet but September building figures exceed corresponding month of last year by $96,127. Failures for month, 24. with liabil Good Listeners. In conversing with one's friends nothing is so chilling as an apparent lack of attention and sympathy. It might be added that nothing is more vulgar were not the listener's indifference common to the majority of our most cultured people. If when one is addressed she will remember to incline the body slightly forward an attitude of rapt attention will soon be unconsciously assumed and, whether really worthy of it or not, new recruits gained for the always popular, as rare, class known as "good listeners." China's Flag. The nag of China is one of the gayest among ensigns. The body of the flag is pale yellow. In the upper left hand corner is a small red sun. Looking intently at the sun is a fierce Chinese dragon. The dragon's belly is a brilliant red and white. His green back is covered with stiff knobs. He is standing on his two hind paws and the left fore foot. His feet are five toed and slightly hooked. His long, five forked tail stretches away in the rear. The dragon's neck is arched back. His mouth is wide open, and he looks as if he were about to try to swallow the red sun.

RIVERSIDER SCORES SMITH. Judge North Accuses Congressman of Favoring Cattle Men In Forest Reserves J. B. Rea, C. C. Chapman, A. Pirotti, A. S. Bradford, Wm. McLaughlin and S. Armor represented Orange county at the meeting of the tri-counties reforestation committee at Redlands on Tuesday. A feature of the meeting was Judge North's gruelling of Congressman Smith for his policy upon the question of forestry and irrigation. These are probably the two most important policies of the government now before the people of Southern California. Smith opposes the policy of Gifford Pinchot, who seeks to make the forest self-supporting. Smith believes stock men should have free entry upon forest reserves. North's criticism of Smith it is said will seriously interfere with his candidacy for re-election. In his address North said the preservation of the forest means the continuation of the water supply, and that if the forests were destroyed Southern California would prove to be a desert. President Francis Cuttle of River-side, delivered an address, dealing with the work of the committee in the past three months and especially with the irrigation congress held at Sacramento recently and his conference there with Gifford Pinchot, government forester. Mr. Cuttle said that he was surprised to find the principal topic of the Sacramento congress dealing with the preservation of forests on the mountain slopes to preserve the water supply in the hills for the irrigation of Process for Action Dr. J.

LOCAL EVENTS alter Crowther celebrated his eleventh birthday on Friday, when a generous company of guests were sent at his Placentia home. A busy dinner and music by the other orchestra were features of evening's festivities. Mr. Crowther the recipient of numerous hand-appresents, and on departing the day wished him many happy returns. H. Hopkins of Hollywood has issued the ten-acre Spingarth east of town, paying $9000 there-and takes immediate possession. Hopkins closed the deal on Tuesday through the Resh agency. He make a desirable addition to the side, and we extend him a welcome city. Ms. Amberg was tendered a very pleasant surprise party at her home evening by members of the Turn-in singing section, the occasion of her birthday. Mrs. Amberg being a lady of charming quality, look of renown, and entertained her side, delivered an address, dealing with the work of the committee in the past three months and especially with the irrigation congress held at Sacramento recently and his conference there with Gifford Pinchot, government forester. Mr. Cuttle said that he was surprised to find the principal topic of the Sacramento congress dealing with the preservation of forests on the mountain slopes to preserve the water supply in the hills for the irrigation of the orchards in the valley. Forester Pinchot told Mr. Cuttle that he would try to get an item in the next general appropriation bill before congress for $100,000 for the protection of timber and to conserve the water supply in the mountains of the San Bernardino range and in Owens River Valley, whence Los Angeles is to get its future water supply. He said he felt the timber in these ranges must be protected in order to give Los Angeles and the San Bernardino valley cities a sufficient and steady water supply. He said that the Tri-Counties Refestation Committee had been of great assistance to the government in the preliminary work done and may be of benefit in getting the appropriation from congress and that he will notify Mr. Cuttle of any assistance that can come from Southern California in the matter. He asked that the California delegation in congress introduce a bill for the appropriation and also to set apart a certain part of the San Bernardino mountains as a game preserve. The committee passed a resolution asking Congressman Smith to introduce the measure. President Cuttle in his report also told of a visit he recently made to the mountains to see some of the young trees planted on the slopes last year by the reforestation committee. He said that on mountain above the Arrowhead hotel he examined 59 trees and found only 7 dead. Mr. Cuttle was followed by General Manager A. L. Selig of the Edison Electric company, who discussed the attitude of the power companies in the reforestation work. He said that the power companies will cooperate in any work to increase and conserve the water supply of the mountains and considered it one of the most important matters that Southern California is facing.

Wickersheim Impression FULLERTON, CO Process for Ageing Wines Dr. J. B. Sloane and A. H. Patterson of Los Angeles were in town on Tuesday and perfected arrangements for opening an establishment here for ageing and purifying wines and liquors. They will be here again on Saturday, the Commercial hotel, where they will be ready to confer with wine and liquor men as well as all others interested relative to their enterprise. They will have associated with them Ex Cayce, who will be in charge of the warehouse and supply depot. The process for ageing and purifying wines and liquors is patented. By it wines and liquors of only a few days are taken and in 75 hours are given a age of from five to ten years. The business side of the process is that new wines may be purchased at from 25 to 30 cents per gallon, and by the process ageing and purification can be placed in the market at from $2 to $5 per gallon. The cost of ageing and purifying not to exceed 5 cents per gallon. No drugs or chemicals are used. Dr. Sloane is a capitalist recently arrived from the east. Mr. Patterson is former businessman of this place, and well and favorably known here. A brief report of the invention may of interest. The public are fully aware that many inventions or devices have been placed on the market, both mechanical and chemical, for the above named purpose, all of which have proved an entire failure, save that of R. A. Stewart, (which Messrs. Sloane and Patterson have acquired) and which has been fully demonstrated by the public at Los Angeles. This is mechanical process, no chemical being used, they covet the strictest public investigation. In this land of plenty why would the public persist in using the adulterated poisons that the markets are now flooded with. By the medical eternity it is conceded that alcohol and quality of age which is most desirable. We should say that the brandy under its present condition would be on an equality with any liquor of like nature of 8 years old, and the wine as 15 years old had they been treated by the old primitive method of ageing by years of time. H. E. BAER, Wholesale Liquor and Wine Merchant. Los Angeles, Cal., April 19, 1907. To R. A. Stewart—Dear Sir: I have investigated the Stewart Ageing and Purifying process, satisfactorily, and can positively state that the process does all that is claimed for it. It ages and frees the liquor from poisonous ether or fusel oils and makes the liquor softer and shows less headaches and other undesirable effects, that goods not so treated are noted for. This is pre-eminently a move in the right direction, for pure and unadulterated liquors and the best demonstration of the pure food law. Yours truly, C. T. PEPPER, M. D.
