STATE SANITATION EXHIBIT CAR CAME UP FROM SAN DIEGO FRIDAY MORNING Will Return Next Week for Day and Evening Meeting—Good Work of A. A. Mills and Dr. J. L. Beebe—Interviewed Dr. Snow The car containing the California State Sanitation exhibit was switched off at the Santa Fe depot on Friday morning, having come up from San Diego on the owl. Dr. Snow, who is in charge of the exhibit, was called upon at 8 o'clock by A. A. Mills, chairman of the chamber of commerce, and Dr. Beebe of the health board. They extended an invitation that he visit this city for a day and evening meeting, and he courteously accepted, adding that he will be in Anaheim some day next week — probably next Tuesday or thereabout. The car was picked up by the overland at 8:14 and proceeded to Riverside. It will visit that city, Redlands, San Bernardino, Pomona, Pasadena and other points in the upper valley. Prof. Mills and Dr. Beebe had used the long-distance telephone during the preceding day and on Wednesday afternoon in an endeavor to get into communication with Dr. Snow. The car had been at Santa Ana and had gone to San Diego before Dr. Snow could be communicated with, a delay having been caused in switching his car from the Southern Pacific to the Santa Fe tracks. On Thursday afternoon the two gentlemen prepared to go to Orange to meet the car on its up-trip from San Diego, but learning that the car would come up work in the belief that an increase in population means greater prosperity and wealth to the state. Three sand dollars is an average value of the commercial value of the six thousand deaths which be prevented by the enforcement public health laws represent annual loss of $18,000,000 per mile of the state, in addition to the public social losses which can not be estimated in terms of money. California has good public laws, but the cooperation of citizens is necessary to make them effective. Various states and cities in United States have been engaged similar public education moves for the past few years, but their bits have been limited to tullis. Rooms in schools or public buildings have been provided in town for exhibition purposes, state or city standing the eagle for packing and transportation. The California state board of decided in November 1908 to open a hygienic exhibit for general use purposes along the line to be successful in the states. The pure food exhibits been developed by the state food laboratory; the bacteriology and pathological exhibit has been prepared by the state hygienic lab and the models and charts have planned by the department of one of Stanford university. Major contributions from various viduals interested in the movies have been added to the initial bit. The Southern Pacific company generously provided and furnished its best passenger cars for ing the exhibit, and meets the pense of transportation over all afternoon in an endeavor to get into communication with Dr. Snow. The car had been at Santa Ana and had gone to San Diego before Dr. Snow could be communicated with, a delay having been caused in switching his car from the Southern Pacific to the Santa Fe tracks. On Thursday afternoon the two gentlemen prepared to go to Orange to meet the car on its up-trip from San Diego, but learning that the car would come up on the Owl, waited until Friday morning, when Dr. Snow was intercepted here. An invitation to come to Anaheim was immediately extended and accepted. The car will be here after it completes its trip in the upper valley. Dr. Snow kindly gave a Gazette representative who was with the party boarding the car for a brief inspection the following literature descriptive of the purposes of the exhibit, which is commended to the careful perusal of our readers: The purpose of this exhibit is to enlist the active cooperation of citizens of all parts of California in the enforcement of the public health laws of the state. California loses on an average 30,000 residents each year through death from disease and accident; 10,000 of these die from preventable diseases. The exhibit deals largely with tuberculosis as the most serious single disease the citizens of the state have to combat; but typhoid fever and other preventable diseases of importance to the public have been illustrated. The charts are designed to show the statistical facts which are developed by a study of the death certificates filed each year by the undertakers. The models are planned to illustrate the spread of disease. Some of the measures which may be employed to counteract conditions which favor the spread of disease have also been illustrated by charts and models. The pathological and bacteriological exhibits show the exciting causes of many diseases and the tissue changes produced. The pure food exhibit shows the planned by the department of one of Stanford university. Major contributions from various individuals interested in the movement have been added to the initial bit. The Southern Pacific company generously provided and furnished its best passenger cars forming the exhibit, and meets the pense of transportation over all thern Pacific lines in California. Santa Fe railroad also controls the transportation over its line state board of health provide attendant. The demonstrations of the are given by experienced public workers and teachers within the state, and in the United States public health and marine hospital service.

All spondence concerning the exhibitions relating to public matters within the state, will promptly answered. Communications should be added to California State Board of H Sacramento, California. BURBANK OUTDONE Oregon Rancher Grows Alfalfa-Berry by Grafting Medford, Or.; May 22.—By gra alfalfa roots on the roots of strawberry vines, Col. Frank velle, a rancher living near her clares he has produced a deep ing vine which brings forth crops of berries a season. Col. Touvelle says he has long a student of the methods of L Burbank, the California wizard. got the idea of producing a rooted berry plant from obese that alfalfa, which roots deeply, induced three to five crops a year out irrigation. It occurred to him says, that strawberries would do same if the vines went down farough to get moisture from the throughout the season. The models are planned to illustrate the spread of disease. Some of the measures which may be employed to counteract conditions which favor the spread of disease have also been illustrated by charts and models. The pathological and bacteriological exhibits show the exciting causes of many diseases and the tissue changes produced. The pure food exhibit shows the importance of rigidly enforcing the state pure food laws. California losses annually 5000 citizens from tuberculosis, 500 from typhoid fever, and 500 more from diseases caused by infected milk and food supply. This means that approximately one out of every five residents eventually dies from one of these diseases contracted through personal or public failure to provide the essentials of sanitary environment. These essentials are primarily sunshine, fresh air, pure water and pure food. Other preventable diseases bring up the ratio to one death out of every three in California as due to causes which science has shown to be preventable if every man, woman and child could be taught the simple lessons of avoiding them. California has an efficient Promotion Committee engaged in bringing settlers to the state. An equally efficient Health Promotion Committee is needed to aid these new settlers to remain alive here after their arrival. The promotion committee spends considerable money on its Col. Touvelle says he has long a student of the methods of L Burbank, the California wizard. Got the idea of producing a rooted berry plant from observed alfalfa, which roots deeply, duced three to five crops a year out irrigation. It occurred to him says, that strawberries would do same if the vines went down far enough to get moisture from the throughout the season. Experimenting to that end through a considerable period of time, Touvelle declares he has now ceeded, and his alfa-berries, as calls them, are flourishing. Some the berry growers here scoff at claims, which, however, he makes seriously.

ECHO OF AN OLD BUTTER FAKE LOS ANGELES MAN SUES TO RECOVER $11,000 Established Phony Plant Here, but Government Stopped Sale of Expanded Butter—Did Not Look Right at Start, But a Sucker Landed People hereabout will recall the dapper Harry Marx, the "American Beauty butter" faker, who was almost as beautiful as the name of his phony butter. Harry carried a tennis racquet, sleeves to his elbows, turned up trousers, white shoes, and a diamond in his shirt front that would put your eye out. He was an arrant faker, and did not look right from the jump-off. But he landed his sucker—in Los Angeles—and now has a suit on his hands to repay the small sum of $11,000 to the man he robbed. Marx and his outfit came to Anaheim some three years ago and started to manufacture American Beauty butter. A warehouse near the Santa Fe depot was rented and fitted up as a model butter manufacturing establishment. From the first Marx eyed the newspaper men with disfavor. He did not desire to advertise for cream from dairymen—he owned twenty-three dairies in Southern California and would ship cream in by the carload. He blossomed out in half-page ads in Los Angeles papers. A carload of butter was brought in, "expanded" and placed on the market. Uncle Sam was not slow in getting on to the fake, and the establishment was closed a week or two after it began.

BANK OUTDONE Her Grows Alfalfa-Strawberries by Grafting ; May 22.—By grafting on the roots of his vines, Col.

He blossomed out in half-page ads in Los Angeles papers. A carload of butter was brought in, "expanded" and placed on the market. Uncle Sam was not slow in getting on to the fake, and the establishment was closed a week or two after it began. An aftermath of the fake is filing of a suit in Los Angeles against Marx for $11,000 by L. Bleakmore, who seems to have been dazzled by Marx's diamond and turned-up trousers. It cost L. Bleakmore $11,000 to learn how to make a two-pound butter roll from sixteen ounces of butter and a small quantity of lacteal fluid. But when he endeavored to market the product he was stopped by the federal authorities, who notified him that the milk contained in the process of expansion contained corn starch. Bleakmore filed suit in the superior court a few days ago asking for a return of the money he had invested in the inflated butter factory, alleging that he was induced to engage in the business through misrepresentation and fraud. Albert Ancker and Harry A. Marx are the defendants. According to Bleakmore, Marx represented to him in June, 1906, that he was the inventor of a process by which he could make two pounds of butter from one; that it was a scientific process, depending solely upon the adaptation of high and low temperature, together with a certain velocity applied to a mixture of butter and milk; that he desired to secure capital with which to manufacture the butter and place it on the market. Marx added that his brother-in-law Albert Anker, had advanced about $2000 to be used in the work, but wanted his money because as a merchant of Los Angeles and a banker of Tehachapi, his time was too fully occupied in other directions to permit his being engaged in other business. Bleakmore, two mouths after he was first approached by Marx, went Marx added that his brother-in-law Albert Anker, had advanced about $2000 to be used in the work, but wanted his money because as a merchant of Los Angeles and a banker of Tehachapi, his time was too fully occupied in other directions to permit his being engaged in other business. Bleakmore, two months after he was first approached by Marx, went to Anker's residence and an illustration of the butter expanding method was given with the aid, he says, of a thermometer and a mixer containing a pound of butter and some milk. He paid Ancker the amount of his loan and expended $9000 to establish a plant at Anaheim, forming a company known as the American dairy company. A month later the United States marshal for the southern district of California notified the manufacturers that the milk used in the expansion process contained corn starch, and that its sale must cease. Then the plant was closed down. The state of California will receive $1,500,000 from the estate of "Lucky" Baldwin, when it is distributed. Were this distribution made in this fiscal year the state would have $2,500,000 from inheritances taxes this year, as the figures now being compiled show the total for this year will reach a million. Last year it amounted to $600,000 and in the previous year to $750,000. Fireless cookers at Dickel's. Government Steamer Line to Panama Massman McLachlan of California meritorious bill before the providing for the government to be a steamship line from Puertorico to Panama. He introduced last session, and not having been upon, he has introduced it in the special session. It pro-act the vessels shall call at points en route and carry the and passengers the same as the line. It is being opposed by the intermental railways and will be used them to the last. That ac- tor the fact that no other representative is assisting Mr. Mann in working for the pas- sis measure. Washington, Or- California are most directly but all on the Pacific have a not indirect interest would cause them to ask ac- ne part of their congressiona-tions. One would think for city that Washington, having vital interest of all, would favorable action on the part of railway-owned members, and California, which has long been iron heel of the Southern Pacific, would grasp eagerly at this splendid opportunity toward ultimate freedom. At present freight for Panama even from other seaports and places adjacent thereto, must be shipped by rail to San Francisco; the only place where steamers call. This tends to discourage commerce, to discriminate against all others and give San Francisco a complete monopoly of something it is not entitled to. Throwing everything to San Francisco and making it the only seaport does not tend to build up the Pacific coast, but has the opposite effect. The argument of paternalism cannot be used against this proposed government steamship line. On the Atlantic the government now operates such a line between its principal ports and Panama.
