POPULAR WRITER MARRIES Miss Estelle Newcombe and Rudolfe Grenke Wed Estelle Noel Newcombe, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Newcombe, wealthy property owners in Los Angeles and Orange county, and Rudolfe L. Grenke, a popular young business man of Anaheim, were quietly married on Monday morning, June 3, at Santa Ana. The marriage was in the nature of an elopement, as the parents of the happy pair were not among the wedding guests. Miss Amelia Grenke, sister of the groom, and Miss Lois Trindle, a friend of the bride served as her attendants, while C. L. Newcombe, the bride's brother, acted as best man. Miss Newcombe who has gained considerable favor as a writer of clever short stories was planning on leaving the latter part of the month on an extended tour of the Orient in company with her mother for the purpose of getting local color for a series of stories she is working upon. However, so earnestly did the young man in the case plead his case that he prevailed upon Miss Newcombe to postpone her trip until some later date when he would accompany her. At this stage of affairs the engaged couple sought the assistance of the bride's brother who is the Orange county agent for the Cutting car, and he at once proffered them the use of his high-powered demonstrator as a means of elopement. The party motored to Santa Ana Monumentation the young men of town and district are forming, and it is hoped to have all the good young men of the community become members of the club. Quarters for the organization have been secured in the second story of the new Stradley building. The front room will be fitted up as a library or reading-room and the remainder of the large room which is 17x65 from front to rear, will be used for musical and athletic purposes. A piano has been secured and it is the intention of the organizers to form an orchestra or glee club. CALIFORNIA'S ORCHARDS Output of Many Millions from the Farms of Golden State An interesting statement of the general results of the thirteenth census relating to the tropical fruits, orchard fruits, grapes, small fruits, nuts and certain specified fruit products of California has been issued by Director Durand of the Bureau of the Census, department of commerce and labor. In addition to the number of farms reporting and the number of trees and vines of bearing age, as of date April 15, 1910, the summary gives the amount and value of fruit and nuts produced in 1909. The fruit products shown are those prepared on farms only, and do not include those reported by manufacturing establishments. Comparable data are given for 1900 wherever possible. The production of all tropical fruits in 1909 was valued at $16,752,-101, as compared with $7,219,082 in 1899, an increase of $9,533,019. Oranges to the number of 14,436,180 boxes, valued at $12,951,505 were produced in 1909. The lemon production amounted to 2,756,221 boxes and the PHIL STANTON IN TOWN Says He's Glad Anaheim Lifted Loving Cup Phil Stanton drove in from his westside ranch the first of the week to gaze upon the Stanton loving cup which Anaheim boosters lifted at the recent barbecue and as well to shake hands with friends hereaway. "I'm glad you fellows got the cup," he said. "You won it fairly, and are entitled to it. I hope that as you look upon it, it will tend to soften the asperities hitherto existing between the two neighboring sections. Our prosperity spells your prosperity, and we ought to be able to live in peace and harmony. That is, so long as you do not try to make Stanton a dumping place for your sewage." Mr. Stanton says the time is coming when the towns of Orange county will have to combine for an outfall in the ocean. "Where can we get a site for an ocean outfall," he was asked. "At Bay City?" "No sir, not at Bay City; but at some other point further south. Santa Ana has secured right of way for an ocean outfall, and I believe the other towns in the county should join with her. That is the only way to take care of sewage." Stanton believes Taft will be renominated at Chicago next week. He is also outspoken for a good Orange county man for senator from the Thirty-ninth district. NOTES FROM PLACENTIA A. S. Bradford has purchased the products shown are those prepared on farms only, and do not include those reported by manufacturing establishments. Comparable data are given for 1900 wherever possible.

The value of the 1909 crop amounted to $18,358,897, as against $14,526,786 in 1899, an increase of $3,832,111. There was an increase of 12,242,169 quarts in the production of small fruits during the ten years since 1899. Strawberries to the number of 15,694,326 quarts were produced in 1909, valued at $1,149,475; raspberries and loganberries, 5,222,117, valued at $304,169; blackberries and dewberries, 4,898,524 quarts, at $282,-383.

Only 78 farms reported the production of olive oil in 1909, and the quantity produced was 95,955 gals. This is a gain of 87,510 gallons since 1899. Raisins and dried grapes to the amount of 169,210,679 pounds were produced on 4551 farms in 1909. No published reports are available as showing the quantity of raisins and fruits.

Charley Stone was badly injured by his horse running away last Sunday. One rib was broken and his knee and ankle badly sprained. Willie Robertson is attending to his duties for the A.U.W.Co., as Stone will be unable to be about for sometime. Dr. Robt. Coyle of Denver is having a well drilled on his Placentia ranch, of which his son, H. H. Coyle is manager, to obtain water for irrigation purposes. Water was struck at the 80-foot level, but they are going deeper for irrigating use. Twenty-eight feet of gravel have been penetrated since striking water strata at the eighty-foot depth.

HANDLY KNEW THE TOWN Paul Derge Returns After Absence of Eleven Years Paul Derge was in town on Friday shaking hands with old-time friends after an absence of eleven years. He is now in the banking business at Lebanon, Kansas, and is prospering. His wife and two daughters spent some time at Hermosa Beach, and visits were made Mrs. Derge's mother at Orange and other relatives. "I would not know the town," he said. "There are so many changes and improvements. I left Anaheim at the wrong time." Mr. Derge said he would not be averse to living in Anaheim again, if opportunity offered. After disposing of his drug store here eleven years ago he went with his family to Salt Lake, where he embarked in the book and stationery trade. Later he went to Kansas and engaged in milling and subsequently entered the National bank at Lebanon as cashier. He and his family returned east on Tuesday. HOME RULE IN Coming Amendment, to Be Voted At the last convenance of California Municipality was passed demiRule in Taxation. At present, under stitution, state and land entirely separate. The tion of taxes for local the hands of local the taxes must be leveal laws. It is proposed to excipile of Home Rule allowing the local aut taxes for local purpose their own local reg meet their own local A constitutional amdying this principle before the Legislatureial session in December was not acted upon MORE OYSTERBED FILINGS New Industry Bobs Up As Result of Sewer Outfall Since two years ago when oyster bed filings were made covering portions of Newport bay and nothing was ever done to propagate oysters, oyster bed filings have come to be looked upon with a degree of suspicion. The filings two years ago are supposed to have been made with the intention of defeating any attempt to dump sewage in Newport bay, or those portions of it covered by the filings. It seems that there is a state law that prohibits the establishment of a sewer terminus within a certain distance of oyster beds, or tidelands and waters filed upon for the establishment of oyster beds. Some of the Santa Ana officials who had talked of taking the outfall to the upper bay came to the conclusion that whoever was back of the filings had put an end to the plan. Now comes other oyster bed filings. They were put on record this week, and whether or not they are meant to be actually used or whether or not they are meant to block sewage schemes are food for conjecture. One of the filings was by Fred G. Smith. He alleges that he expects to use the area described for the purpose of developing, raising and propagating oysters, lobsters and all kinds of shell-fish. His document covers all of the area covered by tidal press of other business and shortness of the session. At the last convention of Assessors held in San Francisco in 1911 the question of home rule in taxation came up and evoked considerable discussion, mostly favorable to the plan. The arguments were well summed up in the addresses of Judge James G. Maguire of the city and county of San Francisco and Dr. Washington Dodge, assessor of San Francisco. An initiative petition is now being circulated for a constitutional amendment providing for home rule in taxation. Under the constitutional provision governing such initiative petitions, petitions bearing 32,000 signatures must be filed with county clerks of one or more counties by July 12, 1912. A league for Home Rule in Taxation has been formed for the purpose of securing the requisite number of signatures to the petition and the campaign is being pressed vigorously throughout the state. The movement has the support of various labor and other organizations over the state, and a favorable report is confidently expected from a committee of the commonwealth of San Francisco which is now investigating the subject. WOMAN IN MEDICINE Has Always Taken Prominent Place In the Profession So often has modern pride been humbled by evidence that, in very truth, there is "nothing new under the sun," and that many of our boasted modern "discoveries" were matters of course to the ancients, there will probably be little or no leave the door ajar, being careful to place the bed where there will be no draught. But should you be so situated that you cannot leave the door open, then open the window from both top and bottom, as this will assure a better circulation of air. A hundred times rather spend a little more on fuel if necessary than have doctor bills to pay. You should consider it a misdemeanor "or any of your family to sleep in a tightly closed room. If your house has a verandah, make a living room out of it for the summer; if no verandah, put down a wooden floor or a few old rugs on the ground at a convenient and shady place outside the house and practically live there. You can do your sewing, mending, washing, preparing of vegetables, and even washing of dishes there. It may require a few more steps to carry things out, but it will also save much of cleaning up in the house, and the improvement in health will repay you 20-fold. But in this out-door living room you must have a screen fitted over a frame which will rest on a table or other flat surface under which you can place any vegetables, fruit, etc., that you may wish to leave set for a time, to prevent flies from lighting on the same. Shun the fly as you would your worst enemy, as it is a disease carrier. I wish to mention here that it is the strictest economy to get screens for all your doors and windows, so you will be able to keep your house free from flies. Never allow water to be poured near this out-door living room, or any refuse to be thrown around, as these things may become productive of a germ-breeding media. What is even much better than They were put on record this week, and whether or not they are meant to be actually used or wheather or not they are meant to block sewage schemes are food for conjecture. One of the filings was by Fred G. Smith. He alleges that he expects to use the area described for the purpose of developing, raising and propagating oysters, lobsters and all kinds of shell-fish. His document covers all of the area covered by tides lying northwest of the Southern Pacific bridge across the Santa Ana river at Newport Beach. The other filing is made by Thomas L. Woodruff. He, too, according to the affidavit, is to go into the business of raising oysters, lobsters and all kinds of shell-fish. The area covered by Woodruff's filing is all of the area covered by the tides on the land side of the mouth of Anaheim creek, and all on the land side of the mouth of Bolsas creek and bay. Included in this latter filing is an area that produces no small quantity of cockles, and for the gathering and shipment of which in quantities of more than twenty-five pounds daily a number of convictions have occurred. Smith's filing covers the portion of the Santa Ana river into which the sewage of the Southern California Sugar Company ran last fall. The factory has developed plans for taking its sewage into the ocean. The Santa Ana trustees plan to carry the sewage of that city into the ocean, not into the rivers of the bay. The records of the county recorder's office show but four oyster-bed filings previous to the two recorded this week. On June 9, 1910, Ed Willoughby and E. C. Sisson filed on the Upper Bay. On January 6, 1911, E. Strong and H. B. Mayo thought to be residents of Alameda county, filed on portions of the bay along the channel near East Newport. So far as known in Santa Ana, nothing ever done by any of these men to propagate oysters. The Woodruff filing covers an indefinite area that runs for several miles along the coast on the land side of the Pacific Electric. That the filings might have something to do with sewage matters may be conjectured. There has been some talk of this city running an outfall to the ocean, although the city trustees seem not to have considered going that far. It is well known that there is a scheme afoot for the union of eighteen cities in the San Gabriel WOMAN IN MEDICINE Has Always Taken Prominent Place In the Profession So often has modern pride been humbled by evidence that, in very truth, there is "nothing new under the sun," and that many of our boasted modern "discoveries" were matters of course to the ancients, there will probably be little or no surprise at the statement that woman in the medical profession, far from being a comparatively recent innovation, is really a long-established adjunct. A writer in the Liverpool Medico-Chirurgial Journal of recent date takes occasion to point out that Hygeia, the goddess of health, was the daughter of Esculapius, the god of medicine. When Greece was at the height of her fame gynecology was almost wholly in the hands of female practitioners. Galen refers to a work on midwifery written by one Cleopatra. Aspasia was a Greek authoress, who wrote on diseases of women. In Rome during the first century there were women who achieved distinction in the medical profession. During the Middle Ages woman were welcomed into the healing art, and in the University of Salerno, in Southern Italy, some of the especially prominent members of the medical faculty were women. It is noted that Anna Morandi Mazzolian occupied the chair of anatomy at the University of Bologna about the middle of the eighteenth century, and at that time the Italian universities generally admitted women students. Maria Maetellari was graduated in medicine at Bologna in 1799 and Marie delle Donne took the medical degree at the same university in 1806. The University of Zurich granted this degree to a woman in 1867, and in 1869 the St. Petersburg Medico-Chirurgical Academy conferred the medical diploma on its first woman graduate. In 1858 Elizabeth Blackwell, an English woman by birth, but a resident of America, was graduated from the medical school at Geneva, N.Y. Everybody knows that women have invaded the medical profession in increasing numbers during the last twenty-five or thirty years, but it would appear from the foregoing facts that the advent of women physicians is by no means strictly a modern departure. Not only that, but male physicians quite generally seem ready and willing to admit that women practitioners as a The Woodruff filing covers an indefinite area that runs for several miles along the coast on the land side of the Pacific Electric. That the filings might have something to do with sewage matters may be conjectured. There has been some talk of this city running an outfall to the ocean, although the city trustees seem not to have considered going that far. It is well known that there is a scheme afoot for the union of eighteen cities in the San Gabriel and Pomona valleys in a huge outfall to the ocean. When the Smith and Woodruff filings are recorded they are to be returned to 312 Union Oil Building, Los Angeles. HOME RULE IN TAXATION Coming Amendment, to Constitution to Be Voted Upon At the last convention of League of California Municipalities a resolution was passed demanding Home Rule in Taxation. At present, under the state constitution, state and local taxes are entirely separate. The entire collection of taxes for local purposes is in the hands of local authorities, but the taxes must be levied under general laws. It is proposed to extend the principle of Home Rule in Taxation by allowing the local authorities to levy taxes for local purposes according to their own local regulations and to meet their own local requirements. A constitutional amendment embodying this principle was brought before the Legislature at the special session in December, 1911, but was not acted upon because of the birth, but a resident of America, was graduated from the medical school at Geneva, N.Y. Everybody knows that women have invaded the medical profession in increasing numbers during the last twenty-five or thirty years, but it would appear from the foregoing facts that the advent of women physicians is by no means strictly a modern departure. Not only that, but male physicians quite generally seem ready and willing to admit that women practitioners as a rule have reflected credit upon the profession. HEALTH IN FARM HOME Fresh Air and Proper Ventilation Necessary Pre-Requisites The old adage "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is verified in the subject of health. Two of the most inexpensive means to be used toward this end are fresh air and proper digestion. Residents of the country sometimes get the idea that because their work frequently takes them out doors for a few moments at a time, they do not require to attend to the ventilation of the house, but this is not the case. Never neglect to get a good circulation of fresh air through the rooms you live in three or four times a day, and by all means have the sleeping rooms well ventilated—windows wide open in the summer and always part way open in cold weather. Those individuals who are afraid of fresh air in their sleeping rooms deprive themselves of the very first principle of health. Have fresh air, but avoid draughts. If you have two windows, have both open; if but one window, open it and Contractor Lagman Estimates Cost of Edifice at $12,000 O.
