BOARD OF TRADE WILL BANQUET FACTORY MEN FEAST OF REASON AND FLOW OF SOUL COMING Reception to Sugar Men at Odd Fellows' Hall Evening of 17th, Followed by Elaborate Spread And Speechifying—Mr. Neff Lopks Over Walnut Groves Up the Coast, Finds Crop Not So Large As Claimed A banquet of the board of trade to sugar factory people will be given at Odd Fellows hall on Thursday evening next, August 17. The banquet will be preceded by a reception in the hall and later all hands will sit down to an elaborate feed. Between members of the board of trade and sugar men there exists the most cordial friendship. The former were early in the field assisting in securing subscriptions to the stock, and a number of them are stockholders. Now that the mill is turning out sugar by thousands of bags daily, the board of trade considers time opportune for a feast of reason and flow of soul, and the banquet promises to be one of the society events of the year. Richard Melrose will act as toastmaster, and President Adams of the board of trade will deliver the welcoming speech. Addresses will be delivered by Gen. J. O. Royer, Manager Hadsell, Homer G. Ames and others. The program is not complete as we go to press, but that the banquet will be elaborate as to detail ed to Mexico, was captured and then brought back. Subsequently he overpowered Sheriff Lacy and escaped from jail in company of Alejo Macias, who was held on a felony charge. Both escaped to Mexico. Macias was shortly retaken, brought back, tried, convicted and sentenced to 13 years in San Quentin. Saiz was arrested at Ensenada, and Sheriff Rudock went after him, lodging him in the county jail. He was convicted of murder in the first degree, and was sentenced by Judge West to hang on August 13. An appeal was taken by his counsel, and a decision is not looked for before time set for execution. Should sentence be approved, Saiz will be brought back for resentence. Should a new trial be ordered, he will be brought back for retrial. On conviction he may probably be sentenced to death. HORTON IS KEPT BUSY Answering Letters Asking Information About Onions C. L. Horton, the Eastside rancher, who, as reported in last week's Gazette, raised three carloads of onions from 4 1-2 acres of land, is seriously considering the advisability of employing a stenographer to answer the many inquiries about onions which are steadily pouring in upon him. This week he received a letter from a St. Louis man, who had seen a reference to the item, and letters have also come from San Francisco, San Luis Obispo and San Diego. Up to Tuesday morning's mail seven letters had arrived, all wanting to know everything about onions.

Neff returned on Tuesday from a week's tour of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. He said on his return that he found conditions good, crops promising from 10 to 15 per cent larger yield than last year. In some of the localities visited local growers make claims of an increase over last year of from 25 to 33 per cent, but this is doubted by Mr. Neff after a close inspection. "Crops are good," he said, "but there is no justification for such unheard-of claims. The yield throughout Southern California will be probably from 10 to 15 per cent in advance of last year. In some of the sections visited I doubt if increases will come up to these figures, but on the whole crops are better than last year. "I do not see any cause for fearing low prices as a result of this increase. Too many farmers have acquired the opinion that if they raise a big crop they ought to give it away. I think prices will be fully up to last year's figures, 15 cents a pound for first-class softshells. No matter what the price paid growers, consumers will pay the usual twenty-five cents. I believe in allowing the middleman to make his profit, but I do not think he should take it all. The growers assume all the risk, they have millions invested in the industry, and are entitled to the profits of the industry." Mr. Neff will hold a number of farmers' institutes in these two norlys considering the advisability of employing a stenographer to answer the many inquiries about onions which are steadily pouring in upon him. This week he received a letter from a St. Louis man, who had seen a reference to the item, and letters have also come from San Francisco, San Luis Obispo and San Diego. Up to Tuesday morning's mail seven letters had arrived, all wanting to know everything about onions. Among questions asked are inquiries relating to character of the soil, irrigation, methods of cultivation and many others. Mr. Horton this week disposed of two cars at $1.75 per hundred, onions having taken a drop since last week, when he sold a car at $2. He will plant 14 acres and is getting ground ready for the crop. Last week he thought he would raise seven acres the coming season, but this week resolved to double the output. JOHNSON IS IMPROVING Twirler Is Expected to Become Same Winner as In Past There does not seem any further doubt about Walter Johnson having rounded into form. His last two games, according to a Washington dispatch some days ago, in which but one run had been scored off his delivery, would indicate this, and, barring accident, Johnson can be relied upon to be the same winning pitcher that he has been heretofore. When Johnson demanded $7000 a season there were many who believed that his price was exorbitant, and yet when his work is compared with that of the other members of McAleer's pitching staff it seems clear that there is good reason for Johnson insisting upon drawing the big salary. Now that he is in form it is to be hoped that he will be used more often than he has been to date. He has been given every consideration by McAleer during the present campaign. Realizing that he was not in good condition he has worked him only after giving him many days' rest. To date the big fellow has appeared in 19 games of ball, 11 of which he has won. With nearly four months of the season over this has been decidedly light work, and no doubt it will be the intention to allow the patrons of the game to see more of him from this out. Johnson's record to date, considering the low standing of his team and the fact that he has shown good form only recently, is most remarkable,and OUR PROBLEM Before we go ahead,eral facts our committee well to take into conditor Lester gives tha nation of the county f poses for this year as Five per cent of this, ing limit, would give bers,$1,513,000.

No matter what the price paid growers, consumers will pay the usual twenty-five cents. I believe in allowing the middleman to make his profit, but I do not think he should take it all. The growers assume all the risk, they have millions invested in the industry, and are entitled to the profits of the industry." Mr. Neff will hold a number of farmers' institutes in these two northern counties. He will visit smaller as well as larger communities, and in some of the former does not expect an audience of more than 25 men. He is spreading the light to little and big places, and the result is improvement in favoring conditions all along the line. In one of the towns visited a farmer approached him and declared he had doubled his crop of barley by taking Mr. Neff's advice and harrowing his field after the crop came up following the first rain. SAIZ MAY HANG AFTER ALL Attorney Weisel Points Out Error in Recently Published Report That Rosario Saiz may hang even though the Appellate Court should reverse judgment entered in the Superior Court, is the statement of Attorney Weisel of Weisel & Dutton, who were appointed by Judge West to defend him. Recently a report went the rounds of newspapers to effect that if the higher tribunal should remand the case for another trial the condemned murderer could not be executed, his neck having been once in jeopardy. Attorney Weisel points out that this is in error, and that on conviction at a second trial, should one be ordered by the higher court, he may be sentenced to death. Saiz was convicted of murdering Jose Machado at Sunset Beach in September two years ago. He escap- only after giving him many days' rest. To date the big fellow has appeared in 19 games of ball, 11 of which he has won. With nearly four months of the season over this has been decidedly light work, and no doubt it will be the intention to allow the patrons of the game to see more of him from this out. Johnson's record to date, considering the low standing of his team and the fact that he has shown good form only recently, is most remarkable, and now that he is himself again he is very apt to finish the season with a higher percentage than he has ever had before. WILL GET LOWER RATES Water Board Cancel Old Contract with Electric Company Anaheim, August 5, 1911. The board of directors of the A.U., W.Co., met in regular session on the above date. Members present, Directors Bradford, Drake, Hale and Dwyer. Absent; Crowther, Porter and Sherwood. Vice President Bradford presided. The minutes of the preceding regular meeting were read and approved. Dwyer reported regarding changes being made in the pipe line through the new high school property. The ditch committee were requested to obtain the deed of right of way for the new line, and, if the present plan of the school trustees is to be carried out, an agreement releasing the A.U.W.Co. from all liability for damage to the school property in the maintenance and operation of the pipe line. Mr. Deimling, representing the Edison Company, appeared before the board in reference to the proposed new electric power contract, and by which a lower schedule of rates is to be granted. On motion of Drake, seconded by Dwyer, the present power contracts were ordered cancell- ed, and the vice president and secretary were authorized to execute a new contract combining the power for both pumping plants, at lower rates. The report of the finance committee was received and filed, and warrants ordered drawn in payment of the demands. Reports of the treasurer, superintendent and secretary were received and filed. A communication was received from Joseph Mesmer, requesting that a connection be made to the ditch at the north line of the 14 acres recently sold by him to Wm. Jaeger. On motion of Dwyer, seconded by Drake, the request was granted, and referred to the superintendent to have the work done upon the usual conditions. A report was received from the Amalgamated Oil Co. of the amount of oil on hand on May 31 and June 30 at the Anaheim lease, and of the amount shipped during June, which amounted to 8556.88 barrels of net oil. The report was ordered filed. Applications on file for the transfer of stock were on motion granted. Adjourned. H. S. Armstrong, Sec.

SEWAGE FOR IRRIGATION Engineer Baker of State Board of Health Gives Interesting Data In the August, 1910, number of the bulletin issued by the State Board of Health, the subject of "Septic Tank Effluents" was briefly pointed out. The old theory, still held by an isolated few, that the septic tank is all that is necessary in the treatment of sewage, is rapidly being disproven. The hope that it would solve the "sludge disposal problem" finally is meeting with disappointment the country over. In an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association of December 10, 1910, Dunbar, a German student of sewage disposal, is quoted on this subject as follows: "At first it was maintained that the sludge was entirely liquified and gassified; then that it was reduced by fifty per cent; and, as a result of the most recent investigations of which I am aware, it is stated that the amount of sludge is not reduced by more than nine per cent." That the septic process will always occupy a large and important place in sewage purification of California, says Ned D. Baker of the state board of health in a recently published bulletin, there seems little doubt. In many places the sewage is used during the dry season for irrigation, and in most of these the tanks are successful for removing and storing the solids for long periods of time. Especially is this true of smaller communities, where the tanks have little or no close supervision. FEDE The name is a guarantee of G Stock is all New and of the L this store will convince the m what we say in our advertiser tes are operated in from two to four such cycles in twenty-four hours. This necessitates having separate units so one set can rest while the others receive the sewage. The large number of surfaces in the filling material become covered with a slimy film, which is really a very rich culture of bacteria. When the sewage is brought into contact with these films there takes place a rapid nitrification of the organic substances in it. A process that under ordinary conditions would require several days or weeks is accomplished under these highly favorable conditions in a few hours. When the beds are empty and the voids filled with air the culture films of bacteria have a chance to recuperate, as it were, because they require a great deal of oxygen in their life processes. Double Contact.—This is the treating of the sewage in two contact beds run in series, the second receiving the effluent of the first.

Geographically, these men are located, one in the southern coast section, one in the northern coast section, and one in the valley section. A fair distribution. EASY FOR JOYNER Engineer Joyner of Los Angeles county has settled the great question in that county, the question that was holding up our highway commission. He says that all that is needed is better Inspection. Wasn't that easy? OUR PROBLEM Before we go ahead there are several facts our commission would do well to take into consideration. Auditor Lester gives the assessed valuation of the county for county purposes for this year as $30,258,870.00. Five percent of this, being the bonding limit, would give, in round numbers, $1,513,000. But the county now has $50,000 in bonds, leaving $1,463,000 as the extreme limit to which the commission may go. STATE ROADS The engineer of our county highway commission put the cost, at a rough off-hand guess, of the state roads in this county, at $600,000. Our commission, apparently assuming that we were so wealthy that it would make no difference, took no notice of this and proceeded to cover the state roads with the county proposition, so that we should stand to lose this whole amount. In any successful advance movement the state proposition must be provided for. It would be a stupendous blunder to proceed otherwise. BRIDGES In the three faint efforts of the commission no provision was made for bridges in the north end of the county. At present every bridge of any size in the county is about ready to fall to pieces, those in this end of the county being perniciously so. To build the paved roads and leave out the bridges would be a folly that even children could see. The turnover would not stand for it. That the seepage process will always occupy a large and important place in sewage purification of California, says Ned D. Baker of the state board of health in a recently published bulletin, there seems little doubt. In many places the sewage is used during the dry season for irrigation, and in most of these the tanks are successful for removing and storing the solids for long periods of time. Especially is this true of smaller communities, where the tanks have little or no close supervision. The records at the office of the state board of health show that of sixty-three California municipalities that are now operating, or will soon build, septic tanks, only five are making any provision for further purification of the effluent. The water from thirty-nine of the tanks is used for irrigation for most of the year, eight of them discharge into the ocean or other salt water and eleven run the effluents into inland streams or sloughs. Those five towns that will further purify their sewage are all doing so to avoid the possibility of creating a nuisance into the streams into which they discharge. On the other hand, a dozen or more cities and towns of the state discharge the sewage directly into streams without any purification. In the March, 1911, special edition bulletin issued by the state board of health several plants for treating the septic effluent are described. These new plants mark a new era in sewage purification in California. A little over a year ago nothing of the kind was to be found in the state,and the conditions leading up to the building of these plants furnish an interesting study. In every case the primary object was to prevent a nuisance rather than because of sanitary reasons. It is a well known fact that if a putrescribe effluent such as that from a septic tank, be turned into a stream that has not enough water to oxidize it, a nuisance will result. In designing the work for aerobic treatment of the sewage, the effort is made to carry it through the final stages of oxidation so the effluent will be stable. The two distinct types of design represented are the contact beds and the sprinkling filters. Both are designed to bring the partially purified sewage into touch with rich cultures of nitrifying bacteria and artificially produce the conditions best suited for the growth of these organisms. They are both purely biologic in es or putrefactive organisms, so their action. As the septic tank re-occupies a large and important place in sewage purification of California,says Ned D.

At present every bridge of any size in the county is about ready to fall to pieces, those in this end of the county being perniciously so. To build the paved roads and leave out the bridges would be a folly that even children could see. The taxpayers would not stand for it THOSE BRASS TACKS There is a little matter of brass tacks, too, that it would be well not to overlook. In the two supervisor districts in the south end of the county there was located about 74 miles of the proposed paved roads and two bridges, while in the two in the north end of the county there were about 40 miles after the city of Stanton incorporated, thus eliminating about 3 miles and one bridge. Now, in the two southend districts there are, outside of Santa Ana, 2187 voters; while in the two north end districts there are 3851 voters, or an excess of nearly 80 per cent, while the excess of the proposed roads and bridges is about 85 per cent the other way. If this isn't the greatest good to the Very Few, what is it? This may have been a happenstance but surely, Tammy in the zenith of her robbery, never gathered to her bosom the spoils of victory more than this. We'll never stand for it. FORWARD To proceed, then, the state roads must not be included; bridges must be rebuilt wherever the roads are made to carry it through the final stages of oxidation so the effluent will be stable. The two distinct types of design represented are the contact beds and the sprinkling filters. Both are designed to bring the partially purified sewage into touch with rich cultures of nitrifying bacteria and artificially produce the conditions best suited for the growth of these organisms. They are both purely biologic in es or putrefactive organisms, so their action. As the septic tank represents intensive action of anaerobic contact beds and trinkling filters are made the field of intensive action of the aerobic forms or those that use air and oxidize the organic matter. Just what is the fate of the pathogenic or disease-producing germs in this process has not been definitely decided. But it is very probable that few of them escape. There is, however, a wide variation in opinions on this point. Contact Beds.—This form requires the building of a water-tight receptacle, which is filled with coarse material, such as broken stone, cinders, or like. The filling material is selected with a view of getting a large total area of surface exposed, and a material that will drain quickly and will not break down and thus cause clogging of the filter. The beds are operated in "cycles" that is to say, a bed is filled and allowed to stand full for several hours, the time depending on temperature and other conditions. Then it is emptied and stands empty for several hours before refilling. Large plants in the eastern part of the United States are in many cases available. These have rarely been underdrained by tile, and owing to difficulty in collecting fair samples of the effluents the degree of purification effected by them can rarely be studied. They are frequently farmed during a part of the year and so the system resolves itself into a combination of sand filtration and broad irrigation in such cases. On the whole, we seem to be on the eve of a widespread and radical change in our ideas and policies regarding sewage disposal. The more complete purification processes are being studied and fitted by our engineers to California conditions. These conditions differ in many ways from those in the older states where such processes have been used, and the California engineers have been at a distinct disadvantage in not having the results of local experiments. The plants being designed without this data, and being fitted to local conditions purely on theory, it will not be surprising if some of them fall short of the results expected of them. But these engineers are deserving of credit as pioneers in this most important branch of the profession in California. The works they have installed will be watched with interest, and the future progress to be made along these lines in our state will owe much of its success to these first beginnings."
