PURE-FOOD VIOLATORS
Bunch of them to Be Prosecuted In Los Angeles
Nearly 150 complaints will be filed in Los Angeles justice courts this week by H. S. G. McCartney, deputy district attorney, for alleged violations of the state pure food law.
These cases represent the accumulation of the investigations during the period when McCartney was in Sacramento as state senator.
In practically every case it is expected pleas of guilty will be entered and fines paid without resistance.
The complaints cover a wide range, including alleged adulterations of confections, flavoring extracts, liquors, drugs, chemicals, etc., and alleged mislabelings, whereby the customer is deceived as to the actual ingredients of the goods he is purchasing.
As comparatively new phases of the work some complaints have been lodged for short-weight butter and short-weight macaroni. In each case dealers who sell short-weight butter or macaroni labeled as pound to two pound packages are liable to prosecution under the law.
To evade the consequences of the law, dealers are selling butter by the roll instead of the pound, and macaroni manufacturing are removing the weight label from packages.
Additions were made to the state pure food law by the last session of the legislature, under amendments introduced by Senator McCartney.
These amendments provide against artificially colored vinegar and against the sale of cold-storage eggs and poultry unless they are labeled as such. Future work of the pure food inspectors will include these...

Additions were made to the state pure food law by the last session of the legislature, under amendments introduced by Senator McCartney.
These amendments provide against artificially colored vinegar and against the sale of cold-storage eggs and poultry unless they are labeled as such. Future work of the pure food inspectors will include these new lines.
Mr. McCartney also proposes to enforce another bill passed by the last legislature providing that food-producing establishments and buildings where food is stored, manufactured or distributed shall be kept clean and sanitary.
It regulates lavatories in plants manufacturing food stuffs, provides that no persons shall sleep in any rooms used for food manufacture and gives the state board of health power to investigate and cleanse unsanitary places. Penalties of from $25 to $500 fines and six months' imprisonment are imposed.
JUDGE URGES COMPROMISE
For the second time Superior Judge West has advised Col. Hoggatt Clopton of Huntington Beach, and his wife, Mrs. Jennie Clopton of Long Beach, to settle their case out of court. Evidence is all in and argument is set for May 5. But the judge advised the litigants to come to an agreement. He gave similar advice three months ago, but without effect.
This time he gave his opinion that the pre-nuptial contract between the two, by which Mrs. Clopton should get one-seventh of Clopton's estate, is a worthless one. Because of this Mrs. Clopton, who has refused to compromise, may see her way clear to a settlement out of court.
In her testimony she told of harsh treatment accorded her by Col. Clopton. She asks $300 per month alimony; Clopton asks for divorce.
Mrs. Clopton began the suit, claiming that her husband had deeded all his property to his children to keep her from a share.

REINERT OUT ON BAIL
Ed Reinert, the man who shot C. N. Gary as the result of a quarrel over a real estate deal, and who has been confined in the county jail for the past three weeks awaiting his preliminary examination, was released on bail Saturday evening, the amount of bond required being $2500. Reinert's sureties are Charles Otto Rust of Anaheim and G. R. Frampton, president of the First National bank of Artesia.
Incidentally it appears that Mr. Rust and Reinert are acquaintances of many years standing, Rust having learned the trade of cooper from Reinert in Los Angeles years ago. Reinert was delighted to regain his liberty and seemed as pleased as a boy with a new top to be allowed to go free.

STUDIES EUCALYPTUS
Government Looking Into Methods of Seasoning Poles
[Correspondence of the Gazette]
San Francisco, April 5.—The government has undertaken a study to determine the proper method of seasoning eucalypt poles, particularly those cut from trees which, owing to a large number of knots, will not make clear lumber. Such poles have shown a tendency to check and warp after being cut, probably due to improper methods of seasoning, which has been a great obstacle to their more extensive utilization.
Experiments will be carried on by the United States Forest Service to determine the methods of seasoning which will prevent this checking and warping. One series will be conducted on the Sutro estate which is in the fog belt, and another on the Pacific land investment company's holdings at Newark, which is out of the fog belt.
Forty-eight growing trees, 13 inches in diameter and having a clear length of 34 feet, will be selected and marked by an officer of the forest service. These two groups will be handled in the same way, 12 trees of each group are to be girdled and allowed to die and season standing, with the bark on, and the other 12 will be felled and laid on skids in the open and seasoned in this manner. Six of the 12 felled trees of each group will be peeled, and the six will be left with the bark on.
The skids will be so constructed that the poles will be at least one foot from the ground to allow a free circulation of air. The poles will be left on the skids for from 6

THE SIMPLEX AND THE EDITOR
Suit was filed on Monday by the Orange News Company against S. D. Crow and C. E. Strifler to have declared invalid a sale by which plaintiff became the possessor of a Simplex typesetting machine. According to the complaint, plaintiff bought from defendants a Simplex machine that had been purchased from the manufacturing company by one Henry Lawrence, his interest in it having been transferred to defendants. It was represented to plaintiff that the sum of $1125 was still due the company, but after the machine had come into possession of plaintiff he discovered that $1325 was the amount due on the machine. Plaintiff alleges he paid defendants five dollars in cash and gave them a negotiable promissory note for $270, and since the Simplex machine people will not give up their claim for less than $1325, he wants to call the whole deal off and asks the court to help in the accomplishment of his desire.
