BEET AND CANE SUGAR In the laboratory a crystal of sugar is designated as cane sugar whether its source is a stalk of cane, a beet, a maple tree, lumps of charcoal and water or a carrot. Sweetness from corn will not crystallize, hence we have glucose. From beets there is no sugar product unless in a crystalline form. In its use for preserving, etc., these crystals, absolutely pure, come of necessity in contact with the impurities inevitably present in the fruit, for it is evident no attempt is made to refine, for instance, a strawberry before canning. But if the housewife has trouble in her canning process, does she think of the condition of the fruit (perhaps partly decayed) or the imperfect sealing of the cans, as the cause? No, instead she immediately rushes to the store metaphorically shaking her fist in the merchant's face and whether the sugar she got was cane or beet she insists it was the sugar that ruined her preserves. Even many otherwise highly intelligent club women share in this unreasoning prejudice. So much successful work has been done with beet sugar by canners and confectioners on a large scale that prejudiced people are no longer in doubt about the equal value of beet and cane sugar for similar purposes. Now comes the University of California (College of Agriculture) and says in a circular: "Relating to cane sugar or beet sugar as a fruit preservative the latter has been found of equal value to BAD BILL KILLED Assemblyman Melrose Tripleposed License Law E. B. Merritt yesterday the following letter from his man Melrose in reference to powers of city trustees ing licenses. The proposed referred to in the account city trustees meeting, which found upon another page was already aware of the bill when Merritt wrote concerning it. His letter follows Feb. Edward B. Merritt, Esq. City Clerk, Anaheim. Dear Sir: I beg to accept receipt of your letter of the Assembly Bill No. 272 to enclosed letter refers, was in the committee of which I am ber about ten days ago, a motion Section 10 of the amended so as to make it law now is; that is, giving cities to license for revenueulation. In this shape it will be passed. I saw the bill at once, and informed that I would fight it. I do not will now make any fight on of the house. Yours very truly RICHARD MEI LOS ALAMITOS Los Alamitos, Cal., Feb. Floods of water have soaked the surface of motions during last week. Now beets are anxiously watching their ing for sunshine to dry out so that they can get into the to start their seeders. With precipitation of 13.23 inches a prospective crop practically ed as soon as the seed ground, the outlook was bright for those who were enough to secure a contract beet sugar factory. On this subject Mr. Chaslor, Special Agent of the States Department of Agriculture. SATISFIED WITH CALIFORNIA Gus Hansen of Buena Park, one of the largest dairymen in the county, has recently received orders from two Los Angeles hotels which he serves with milk and cream twice daily, to double his shipments. He owns 350 acres of rich land in the west country, and says California holds out more inducements to the investor today than ever before. Fourteen years ago he purchased a portion of these lands at $35 per acre, and the remainder at a subsequent date at $75. Today their value soars into the hundreds, and in a few years he is optimistic enough to believe the value will rise to $2000 per acre. Mr. Hansen was a successful business man in Chicago before coming to California first sixteen years ago. He was attracted by the display of fruits and flowers maintained by railroads. While his city was blizzard swept, as during the past week, these displays contained oranges and other fruits, and he could not resist the temptation to come to take a look at the country. One trip was enough. He disposed of his eastern holdings and came to this section to purchase 'yellow emerald' suq Hoe says the same can be duplicated in many portions of the southland, which he believes will have a dense population before many years. More men of means are coming to California than ever before, and once here, in his opinion, they will only return to the blizzard-swept states to dispose of their holdings and come again to remain. The charm of the climate is irresistible, and once here they forget the blizzard and make up during last week. Now bees are anxiously watching the ing for sunshine to dry out so that they can get into the to start their seeders. With precipitation of 13.23 inches a prospective crop practically ed as soon as the seed is ground, the outlook was bright for those who were enough to secure a contract beet sugar factory. On this subject Mr. Chaslor, Special Agent of the States Department of Agriculture this to say relative to state fore Ways and Means Co., Washington, D. C., by Mr. C Smith of Michigan in which Smith said: "I wish to call the attention committee to one fact. The ment which our company made sugar business was one which made on the invitation and advice of the United States department through its Department culture; and also it was based the recognized policy of the institution and the party in powertecting and encouraging domestic home industries." "Yes, and in a measure he identified in making such an assaid Mr. Saylor, "for the reason the United States Government its Department of Agriculture practically committed itself propagation of the domestic industry. I am of the opinion fact that the Government has and encouraged the best sugar try by sending out reports where beet sugar factories profitably located has induced capitalists to invest in beet sugar enterprises." "Is the Department of Agriculture still favorable to the policy of lating and encouraging the production of sugar on American soil?" Morlor was asked. "Yes," replied Mr. Saylor Agricultural Department having everything in the direction courageing the domestic sugar industry and beet sugar culture, that it could. "The department has implicated in the beet sugar industry and courageed this, together with lines of agricultural production it believes can be profitably offered in the United States." "The department regards beet culture as a great stimul agriculture in general, for its foundation on which the development of Western agricultural interests built." "The advancement of the beet sugar industry leads to corollary dustries such as stock feeding the development of breeding." MARKET DAY ON SATURDAY Farmers Urged to Bring In Products of the Soil Bills are out over the entire countryside telling of Anaheim’s Market Day, which occurs on Saturday next. The market place will be at the corner of Lemon and Chartres streets, and farmers are urged to bring in their stock, swine, poultry, potatoes, seed, hay and other products of the soil. Robert McKee, an experienced auctioneer, will be on hand, and a charge of one per cent will be made for his services to those who care to avail themselves of the same. It is the desire of the Merchants’ Association that these monthly market days may result in bringing producer and consumer together in mutually advantageous manner. Many a farmer may have produce which the consumer is anxious to buy, and good prices will be offered for good articles. Agents for outside commission houses will be present, and an effort will be made to see to it that nothing is left unsold. Merchants will make liberal discounts for the day, and farmers who come in will find bargains in every line. Secretary Krick has read the son irrigation bill, which appears another column, and says if a can make head or tail out of will be entitled to a prize. This as it comes to us is a feel and wonderfully wrought showing faulty proof-reading and sundry syntactic which stamps its author as a matical jackrabbit of purest rene. Mr. Krick says he’s agile; and so ought every other of his country to be. To the with Johnson and his bill. Its construction is bad, but its evident pose and intent is, apart from ing, about as villainous as any has lately come out of Sacramento. BAD BILL KILLED Hyman Melrose Trims Up Proposed License Law Merritt yesterday received a flowing letter from Assemblyman Melrose in reference to a bill passed in the assembly relating laws of city trustees in impossises. The proposed bill is due to in the account of thetees meeting, which will be upon another page. Melrose ready aware of the nature of when Merritt wrote him conilit. His letter follows: Feb. 15, '09.

F. Sayal Agent of the United Department of Agriculture has IRRIGATORS RISE IN PROTEST DETERMINED OPPOSITION TO IRRIGATION BILL WITH A BUG Assemblyman Melrose Sends Word From Sacramento that Work Is Necessary to Defeat Johnson's Bill—Menaces Rights of Local Irrigators Assembly bill 946, introduced by Johnson of San Diego, affecting water companies, was last week referred to in these columns, and is again printed in full by request of many irrigators, who are aroused to a spirit of determined opposition to it. Assemblyman Melrose has forwarded copies to the water company here, and sends word from Sacramen-to that it is necessary to sign protests to the enctmenat of the bill into law. These protests are now in circulation and being signed by irrigators throughout the valley. The bill reads as follows: Section 1. An act to regulate and control the sale, rental and distribution of appropriated water in this state other than in any city, city and county or town therein, and to secure the rights of way for the conveyance of such water to the places of use. Approved It is hereby amended by adding thereto a new section to be numbered section 10½, to read as follows: "Section 10½. Corporations organized for the purpose of supplying and delivering water to their own stockholders only, shall be subject to the provisions of this act, and whenever any person holding lands which may be irrigated by means of canals or systems of any such corporation is the owner of appropriated water either through appropriation by himself or through contract with others who have appropriated water into the canals and ditches of such corporation, and to have the same delivered to him by such corporation at any point along the line of such corporations, canals or ditches where he may desire the same Now beet growers must usually watching the sky hopshine to dry out sufficiently they can get into their fields their seeders.

The subject Mr. Chas. F. Sayal Agent of the United Department of Agriculture has by relative to statement bees and Means Committee, D. C., by Mr. Carmen N. Michigan in which Mr. Taylor to call the attention of the to one fact. The invest-ment our company made in the business was one which was the invitation and urgent the United States Govern-ugh its Department of Agri-nd also it was based uponized policy of the adminis-try the party in power of pro-l encouraging domestic or estries." In a measure he was jus-taking such an assertion," Taylor, "for the reason that States Government through ment of Agriculture has committed itself to the of the domestic sugar in-ram of the opinion that the Government has fostered aged the best sugar inducing out reports showing sugar factories could be located has induced many to invest in beet sugar en-Department of Agriculture able to the policy of stimu-encouraging the production American soil?"

Where such rates have not been fixed as herein provided until such rates are fixed such land holders shall be entitled to have such water delivered to him by such corporation upon payment to such corporation of one and one-third times the amount charged by such corporation to its own stockholders for the same service. Sec. 2. This act shall take effect immediately. Melrose has jumped the bill with both feet, and inasmuch as he seems to be cutting some ice at Sacramento, it is probable he will be able to defeat it. But he asks that irrigators sign a protest to the bill, which comes near to confiscating their rights, and this should be done immediately. As we go to press word comes that the bill is dead, yet those in position to speak with authority say irrigators should sign the protest nevertheless. "Take no chances on this bill," said a well-known irrigator. The petition protesting against the enactment of the bill will be found at the water office. BROOKHURST A pretty home wedding occurred Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock, wher Miss Mamie Clark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Clark, was united in marriage to Earl D. Gage at the home of the bride's parents at Brookhurst, Rev. Bailey of Fullerton officiating. The couple were married beneath a white wedding bell, with the ring ceremony. The wedding march was played by Mrs. McGimpsey, sister of the groom. The bride was dressed in white Batiste, elaborately trimmed with tucks and Val lace, and carried a bouquet of white carnations and ferns. The parlor was beautifully decorated with calla lilies and ferns, the dining room with smillax and red flowers. The tables were decorated with Marguerites and ferns, where an elaborate luncheon was served to about for- Sugar industry and its agricultural production that can be profitably developed in United States.
