RECORD OF WATER FILING Getting Information of All Water Power Plants in State By the next meeting of the State Conservation Commission Secretary Glavis will have completed a record of all water filings in the state where the purposes mentioned include power investigation is being prosecuted with a view to securing complete information of all water power plants, particularly their estimated value, capacity, and retail price of power. Investigations are also being made to determine the number of speculative water filings in the state. In addition to this, under a co-operative agreement with the Geological Survey, information is being secured relative to the amount of water in the streams, their power and irrigation possibilities, etc. Many of those who are unfamiliar with engineering practice do not realize the necessity of procuring information of this kind. The importance of knowing how much water is available for its various uses grows enormously as the United States becomes more thickly settled and as industrial pursuits advance. We need water for domestic supplies and for navigation, as well as for power and irrigation. One of the most important features of our industrial prosperity has been the development of water. On the other hand, water may be enormously destructive when it takes the form of floods. It is therefore necessary to going out the town site at Stanton station. The old plat is re-arranged and a larger territory is being subdivided. As soon as this work is finished the lots will be placed on the market and the building of a new town will be commenced. Reservations have been made already by business men who expect to establish several new business ventures. Building restrictions and street improvements will be of a character that are calculated to make an attractive and up-to-date town. The directors of the company held a meeting Tuesday afternoon in their office building at Stanton. WHAT THE WORLD DRINKS United States Consumes More Beer Than Any Other Country Statistics compiled by the Department of Labor and Commerce show that more beer is consumed in the United States than in any other country in the world, and more distilled spirits than in any other country except Russia. The quantity per capita consumed in the United States is not, however, in the case of beer, as great as in Belgium, United Kingdom, Germany or Denmark; while our per capita consumption of distilled spirits is less than that of Denmark, Hungary, Austria, France, Netherlands or Sweden. Of wines, the quantity consumed in the United States is below that of Portugal, Spain, Germany, Italy or France; and the per capita consumption is less than that of France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switz- of knowing how much water is available for its various uses grows enormously as the United States becomes more thickly settled and as industrial pursuits advance. We need water for domestic supplies and for navigation, as well as for power and irrigation. One of the most important features of our industrial prosperity has been the development of water. On the other hand, water may be enormously destructive when it takes the form of floods. It is therefore necessary to harness our water supplies so that they will on the one hand render the best service and on the other be prevented from devastating the country. In developing the water of a particular stream the first necessity is to know how much water must be provided for—the volume that descends in the channel from day to day and from month to month. This necessity has its counterpart in the ordinary conduct of business. Every business man recognizes the necessity for taking account of stock. Every bank is required to keep an accurate record of its resources. There is no difference in principle between these operations and taking an inventory of water resources. To handle and develop them properly it is necessary to keep an account of stock. The reports above described give a faithful record of each river's performance so that the persons or the community undertaking any development of water will know all the facts concerning the supply available. FRUIT FLY IN PERIL Scientists on Trail of Pest from Hawaiian Islands Further effort to prevent an invasion of the Mediterranean fruit fly from the Hawaiian Islands is to be made by Prof. A. J. Cooke, the new State Horticultural Commissioner. Prof. H. A. Weinland of Santa Rosa has been engaged to go to Honolulu and aid in the suppression of the pest there. Welland will be paid a salary of $1800. Two more men, E. H. Newcomer of Stanford and another, will be installed in the San Francisco quarantine office to help guard that post against the fly. Prof. Cooke also announces that he has obtained the services of Prof. H. S. Fawcett of the Florida experiment station, who is an expert on mycology, to conduct a fight against fungus diseases which are particularly injurious to citrus trees. A new position was created for Prof. Fawcett and he is to receive a consumed in the United States is not, however, in the case of beer, as great as in Belgium, United Kingdom, Germany or Denmark; while our per capita consumption of distilled spirits is less than that of Denmark, Hungary, Austria, France, Netherlands or Sweden. Of wines, the quantity consumed in the United States is below that of Portugal, Spain, Germany, Italy or France; and the per capita consumption is less than that of France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Austria or Hungary. The quantity of malt liquor consumed in the United States in 1910 was 1851 million gallons, against 1704 million in Germany and 1397 million in the United Kingdom, that of Austria being 493 million, Belgium 412 million, France 379 million, and Russia 231 million gallons. Of spirits the quantity consumed in the United States was 133½ million proof gallons, against 232 2-3 million in Russia, the per capita being in each case 1.45 gallons, against a little less than 1 gallon in the United Kingdom. The quantity of beer per capita consumed in the United States was, in 1910, 20.09 gallons, against 31.44 gallons in the United Kingdom and 26.47 gallons in Germany. In the consumption of wines France leads the world, 1541 million gallons, or 39.36 gallons per capita in 1909. Italy in that year consumed 31.17 gallons per capita; Portugal, 27.39 gallons; Switzerland, 14.55 gallons, and the United States, in 1910, only 0.66 gallon per capita. Comparatively little beer is consumed in Italy, Roumania, Servia and Russia; less than 2 gallons per capita annually, as against 20 gallons in the United States, 26½ gallons in Germany, and 31½ gallons in the United Kingdom. The principal countries in which wine consumption averaged less than one gallon per capita in the latest available year include Netherlands the United Kingdom, Canada, Newfoundland, New Zealand., and the United States. WESTMINSTER Last week marked the beginning of the celery season in Orange county, and according to W. E.

R. M. Pierce in calling to order the meeting of trustees of the city of Stanton at the town hall Monday night. A full attendance was present, Trustee Buntain, Hill, Muller, Winters and Bradford answering to roll call. Other officers of the city were all present, including Clerk D. L. Warden, Marshal Pierce, Treasurer Harry Barter, City Engineer J. L. McBride and also Senator Anderson, an officer of the townsite company, J. C. Alcorn of Alhambra, P. A. Stanton and Attorney R. P. Blodget. Dr. D. W. Hasson of Buena Park, was appointed health officer for the city to see that provisions of the health ordinance recently adopted are duly observed. Other members of the board of health who will co-operate with the doctor in this work are L. W. Raines, A. T. Hooven, W. H.

Mr. Gerhart estimates the crop to run in the neighborhood of one thousand cars. Shipments will commence in earnest this week. George W. Moore, manager of the Celery Growers' Association, has made his appointments for the season as follows: Charles F. Ward, field superintendent; W. H. Bentley, eastern representative; B. R. Gerhart, Los Angeles salesman; Donald McMillan, head carloader at Smeltzer, while Arthur Mallet and Jack Ferguson will act in a similar capacity at Wintersburg and Los Bolsa, respectively. BIG FERRY-BOAT SOLANO Will Be Superseded in Size by Contra Costa The Southern Pacific Company's steamer Solano which has ferried thousands of trains every year since 1879 across the Carquinez Straits between Port Costa and Benecia, California, and which has been known all those years as the largest ferry boat in the world, is to lose its famous appellation. Its successor to the title will be the ferry steamer Contra Costa, now being constructed in the Oakland shipyards of the Southern Pacific. The building of the old Central Pacific railroad across the great west and the steamer Solano are today two of the favorite topics of the California pioneers. The Solano is not to be retired from service, however. Both the old and new boats will carry the transcontinental trains across the narrow strait that separate Carquinez and San Pablo bays. The Contra Costa, while the gen- ANAHEIM GAZETTE An Innovation in Oil Heaters The Perfection Smokeless Oil Heater, with its drums enameled in turquoise, is an ornament to any room, whether in the country or city home. No home is quite complete without a Perfection Oil Heater. It is a necessity in the fall and spring, when it is too warm to start the regular heating apparatus, and too cool to be without heat. In the midst of winter it is often convenient as an auxiliary heater, as there are always some cold corners in a house. The enameled heater always presents a nice appearance, as the enamel will not tarnish or burn off. It is not an "enamel paint," but it is the same as the enamel of your cooking utensils. The Perfection is the most reliable and convenient portable heating device you can find. An automatically-locking flame spreader prevents turning the wick high enough to smoke.

A ruined home and a broken heart, love and renunciation were interwoven in the theme, and the curtain fell upon a man going away to forget. L. A. Woodworth came to Orange with his wife in the summer of 1910. He worked at day labor for a time, then leased a ranch in Silverado canyon and took charge of the Villa Park and El Modena water development work. Woodworth was physically a man among men. Symetrically proportioned, he weighed near 225 pounds. His bearing bespoke marvelous strength and he possessed it. He was a clever boxer and had once acted as sparring partner to Corbett, the heavyweight champion. His devotion to the plain little wife was often the subject of comment, and by his own declaration they were as happy as could be. On the horizon, however, stalked Tragedy. The wife had been married before, and had secured a divorce when her husband became a convict. It is said that she was a Catholic and could not negotiate a second marriage in the church while her husband lived Woodworth was not a Catholic.

Hough, $2750. has cut a wide swath in America—as who shouldn't, with such a heritage? Inquisitive reporters have at last induced him to tell something about the famous characters in his father's novels. David Copperfield is the story of his father's early life; Mrs. Nickleby was the novelist's mother; the immortal Micawber, his father; Little Nell, his mother's sister; Sam Weller, a servant in the family; Captain Cuttle, an old salt who used to visit them frequently; and Pickwick's real name was Moses Pickwick. He was a coach proprietor near Bath. So it is true that Charles Dickens was a pen painter of actual portraits. Anyone he knew was liable to be immortalized, and the queerer he happened to be the more certain he was to get into a book. The Dickens novels are as popular as ever, and it is 100 years since the author was born. ARIZONA ORE DEPOSITS Investigations Made in Northern Yuma County In the spring of 1909 Howland Bancroft, of the United States Geological Survey, made an investigation of the ore deposits and the economic geology of northern Yuma County, Ariz. The area examined comprises nearly 5,000 square miles of sparsely settled country in which development work has been done at but few localities. The earliest settlers and prospectors in the region, while at one time on friendly terms with the Indians, later had to defend themselves constantly against attacks and on this account development was rather slow. Placer gold in paying quantities was discovered in the neighborhood of La Paz as early as 1862, and within a year 2,000 men were searching for the precious metal. After the hostile Apaches were placed on reserves, in 1874, the settlers and prospectors were able to carry on their industries more safely.
