CHAPMAN AGAIN ORATES AT THE TENT LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR WAL-LACE FAILED TO SHOW UP SUNDAY NIGHT BIG TENT CROWDED, HUNDREDS BEING PRESENT FROM ALL SECTIONS OF COUNTY Hundreds of persons who flocked to the evangelistic tent Sunday night, especially those who came from distant communities, to hear Lieutenant Governor Wallace, expound the cause of prohibition, were sadly disappointed on again being confronted by Dr. Ervin S. Chapman, who came down from Los Angeles as a substitute for the lieutenant governor. Dr. Chapman announced that Mr. Wallace was so ill that he deemed it unwise to venture out but he hoped, ere the campaign in Anaheim closed, to be able to assist the drys. quainted with the author, Rev. U. G. Robinson, ex-superintendent of the Missouri Anti-Saloon League. He had lost his position, he said, and was now in the employ of the liquor forces. Friday night was "Santa Ana night" and about 300 persons from that town came over in automobiles and took possession of the meeting. J. M. Gunnett presided at the meeting and the big choir and orchestra furnished the music. That was all Anaheim had to do with it. Mrs. N. B. Tedford, Rev. W. L. C. Samson and Superior Judge W. H. Thomas were the speakers. "Temperance and the Home" was Mrs. Tedford's subject and she dilated upon the duties of motherhood in training children against the influence of the saloon. "Temperance and the Church" was the heading of Mr. Samson's remarks, and he demanded that the churches rise up and smite the saloon. Judge Thomas' theme was "Temperance from the Standpoint of a Business Man," and he gave statistics bearing upon the subject. WASHINGTON MAN INSPECTING ORCHARDS Department of Agriculture Sends Ex- the evangelistic tent Sunday night, especially those who came from distant communities, to hear Lieutenant Governor Wallace, expound the cause of prohibition, were sadly disappointed on again being confronted by Dr. Ervin S. Chapman, who came down from Los Angeles as a substitute for the lieutenant governor. Dr. Chapman announced that Mr. Wallace was so ill that he deemed it unwise to venture out but he hoped, ere the campaign in Anaheim closed, to be able to assist the drys. The doctor was loaded with excerpts and armed with extracts from his stainless flag lecture. He first read a letter from Mr. Wallace stating his position and extending encouragement to the temperance forces. Dr. Chapman's address was on similar lines to the speech of the previous Sunday evening but was more eloquent and forceful. He took the ground that the saloon has no right to exist, that it is a wrong and that no government, great or small, has the right to sanction and license it. Many citizens, he said, consider the saloon helps business, but the saloon is the only business which sells goods that are not necessary or desirable. If no greater service was given by the goods sold in other lines of business than by the saloon all business would come to an end. All business would be improved if the saloon did not exist. The liquor traffic which you sanction, is the greatest evil on earth. You cannot compare it to piracy. It is murder. It is the greatest of crimes. The average murderer commits crime occasionally, the liquor traffic continually. The average murderer kills his enemy in a passion or for revenge. The saloon murders its friends. It is an unspeakable wickedness. The only thing that can be compared to the liquor traffic is the procuror—the white slaver who lures young girls to destruction. You who vote to maintain the liquor traffic are responsible for its crimes. It is the most degrading and ruinous of all pursuits, and if it receives the sacred sanction of the law you who sanction it are responsible for its every crime. The Supreme Court of the United States says no legislature has the right to bargain away the public health or the public morals. You violate this mandate if you vote to continue the saloon. I stand before you and declare the saloon has no right to exist. Therefore you are not free to go to the ballot box and vote for anything that is harmful. Business has two characteristics—service and profit. Charity has service without the profit. Crime reaps profit without giving the service. Put the saloon under the latter heading as churches rise up and smite the saloon. Judge Thomas' theme was "Temperance from the Standpoint of a Business Man," and he gave statistics bearing upon the subject. WASHINGTON MAN INSPECTING ORCHARDS Department of Agriculture Sends Expert to Investigate Local Conditions C. A. Reed, of the Bureau of Plant Industry, Department of Agriculture at Washington_, was in town on Thursday and Friday, looking over walnut groves near this city. In company of J. B. Neff he was driven about the valley and was shown walnut orchards at Fullerton, Placentia and other places. Mr. Reed is in charge of nut culture investigations, and comes to Southern California for the purpose of acquiring information from walnut men to be used in efforts made by the Department of Agriculture to assist pecan growers in the Southern States. These growers are troubled with a fungus disease which menaces the pecan crop in several Gulf states as well as on the Atlantic seaboard. "I find walnut growers in this section are away ahead of pecan growers in the South," said Mr. Reed. "Their scientific methods are far superior to those adopted by pecan growers in Georgia and other Southern states, and they are realizing much better returns from their crops. I have seen the most magnificent walnut groves in this section, and Mr. Neff tells me he harvests a ton of walnuts per acre. This is 100 per cent greater than the average of walnut growers in Southern California, and this return is far greater than that realized by the Southern pecan grower. Pecans have been recently introduced into Georgia, where they are making a splendid growth. Growers are troubled by a fungus disease in that state as well as Mississippi valley and it is the desire of the Department of Agriculture to assist them in stamping out this disease. I am here looking over conditions in walnut orchards, and have secured much valuable information which I think will be of great benefit to pecan men in the South." Mr. Reed will remain in Southern California several weeks. He said the walnut groves in this section, Fullerton, Placentia and Orangethorpe were the finest he had seen in California. W. F. Herman, superintendent Orange County Preserve "that the tomatoes grow and its immediate vicinity in the world. They shape, they are richer superior in flavor to any produced in the world. Mr. Herman is a cane experience, having been canning and preserving 18 years. He recently interest in the Orange Company of E.A., his experience told him best field for his business. The cannery opened August 29th, and expected about the first of D weather conditions cut Four hundred acres of contracted for before the season, but many crops were not contended their product to the case five people are now building and the work cause more are needed for the crop that is being put up are the "Mother" Royal Red," the "Anah and the "Matchless." duct is disposed of towers in California, although shipments are made and other Eastern points it is offered the Anah organized as the best one. Tomatoes yield, said from three to twelve The yield depends upon condition and the weather cohesion because of some growers lost now were damaged as much Many tomatoes come that are sunburned but are rejected, as nothing ones are put up. Next season the cannery the preserving of apricots This season will open crops are expected to way in ample time tomato crop. EBELL NO The Supreme Court of the United States says no legislature has the right to bargain away the public health or the public morals. You violate this mandate if you vote to continue the saloon. I stand before you and declare the saloon has no right to exist. Therefore you are not free to go to the ballot box and vote for anything that is harmful. Business has two characteristics—service and profit. Charity has service without the profit. Crime reaps profit without giving the service. Put the saloon under the latter heading as you must treat the liquor traffic as a crime. You do not give the sanction of the law to the hold-up man, the gambler or the dynamite man. Why do you give the saloon man the sanction of the law? You have no right to give protection to the liquor traffic. Civil government has no power to give legal standing to strong drink. The doctor was impassioned and eloquent at times and announced at the beginning of his address that he intended to be radical. He stated repeatedly that his vituperative talk was not directed against the individuals who conduct the business, but against the traffic itself. He quoted from a speech delivered by President McKinley, also from a statement made by Theodore Roosevelt, while he was police commissioner of New York, to substantiate his claims that liquor was wholly evil, but most of the talk was from his own work, "The Stainless Flag." He announced that Lieutenant Governor Wallace would probably be here some time during the campaign but could not make a positive statement. Next Sunday night John Oliver, of Bakersfield, will be the chief orator at the tent. He also paid some attention to a leaflet being circulated in town headed "The Anti-Saloon League Exposed," and stated that he was ac- Dr. F. E. Corwin, of Park City, Mont., was in town on Tuesday with a view of purchasing property here and becoming a premanent resident. Dr. Corwin is one of the best known physicians in Montana, his practice being one of the largest among leading physicians of that state. He is an old acquaintance of many members of the Montana colony here, and it was while he was being driven over the county on Tuesday, seeing what he regarded as the most beautiful spot on earth, that he determined to locate here and bring his family to reside. He will remain a week or two, and will then go to Montana for the purpose of closing up his business affairs and will later on return to this city. He is an educated gentleman of accomplishments and pleasing address, and during his stay made many friends outside the Montana colony, all of whom express a desire to have the pleasure of meeting with him again. Walter Amstutz was in town on Tuesday from his walnut plantation at the west end. He makes the proud boast that his orchard is the finest in Orange county, the trees being large for their age, very luxuriant and loaded with fruit. His has lately been fertilized with nitrate of soda and potash, and says the branches are shooting way up yonder. Next season the canvassing of apricots will open; crops are expected to grow in ample time through tomato crop.

ANAHEIM CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1913 CANNERY BUSY PRESERVING TOMATOES TEN THOUSAND CANNS PER DAY BEING PUT UP BY ORANGE CO. PRESERVING COMPANY A GOOD SEASON AND LONG RUN IN SIGHT IF WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE "You can quote me as saying," said W. F. Herman, superintendent of the Orange County Preserving Company, "that the tomatoes grown in Anaheim and its immediate vicinity are the best in the world. They are perfect in shape, they are richer in color and are superior in flavor to any other tomato produced in the world." Mr. Herman is a canner of long experience, having been engaged in the canning and preserving business for 18 years. He recently purchased a half interest in the Orange County Preserving Company of E. A. Taylor because AUTOMOBILE'S WHEEL RESTS ON STOMACH Russell Baker sustains slight injuries, Being Run Over by J. D. Lavin's Machine "Get off of me!" exclaimed Russell Baker, aged 22, as he lay upon his back on the pavement at the corner of Center and Los Angeles on Monday morning shortly before 9, while the left front wheel of J. D. Lavin's touring car rested for an instant upon his stomach. Mr. Lavin was proceeding south on Los Angeles street, while Baker was traveling along side of him on a bicycle. The auto was moving at a slow rate of speed, going not more than six or seven miles an hour. At the corner Baker sought to elude a young lady on a bicycle coming east. Lavin called to him several times to get out of the way. Another auto was traveling westerly on Center street at a rapid rate. Lavin tried to steer clear of Baker and at the same time get out of the way of the approaching machine. His left front wheel struck Baker, knocking him down and the wheel passed over the body, resting upon Baker's stomach as Lavin brought his DOCTOR WEBBER EXAMINES TWO SITES HEAD OF THE EXPERIMENT STATION VISITS ANAHEIM FOR PURPOSE OF INVESTIGATION IN COMPANY WITH J. B. NEFF VIEWS JOHNSTON AND HOUCK TRACT WHICH IS OFFERED Another step toward the establishment of the state experiment station in a new location was taken Wednesday when Dr. Webber, head of the institution, accompanied by Walter M. Murtz, came down from Whittier to examine a site offered him through the Anaheim Board of Trade. Dr. Webber and Mr. Murtz arrived here Tuesday and spent the night with J. B. Neff at his walnut ranch southwest of town. The next day accompanied by Mr. Neff the doctor visited the ranch owned by Drs. Johnston and Houck, and another which has been offered but refused to W. F. Herman, superintendent of the Orange County Preserving Company, "that the tomatoes grown in Anaheim and its immediate vicinity are the best in the world. They are perfect in shape, they are richer in color and are superior in flavor to any other tomato produced in the world." Mr. Herman is a canner of long experience, having been engaged in the canning and preserving business for 18 years. He recently purchased a half interest in the Orange County Preserving Company of E. A. Taylor because, his experience told him this was the best field for his business. The cannery opened the season on August 29th, and expects to close up about the first of December unless weather conditions cut short the crop. Four hundred acres of tomatoes were contracted for before the opening of the season, but many growers whose crops were not contracted for sell their product to the cannery. Seventy-five people are now employed in the building and the work is hampered because more are needed to take care of the crop that is being rushed in. Ten thousand cans per day are now being put up but the capacity of the plant is double that figure as $3,000 worth of new machinery was installed at the beginning of the season. With a full force the plant would turn out about 20,000 can per day. The brands put up are the "Mother Colony," the "Royal Red," the "Anaheim Beauties," and the "Matchless." Most of the product is disposed of to wholesale dealers in California, although occasional shipments are made to Kansas City and other Eastern points, but wherever it is offered the Anaheim brand is recognized as the best on the market. Tomatoes yield, said Mr. Herman, from three to twelve tons per acre. The yield depends upon the cultivation and the weather conditions. There has been some loss to growers this season because of the hot weather. Some growers lost nothing but others were damaged as much as 25 per cent. Many tomatoes come into the cannery that are sunburned but of course they are rejected, as nothing but perfect ones are put up. Next season the cannery will begin the preserving of apricots and peaches. This season will open in June and the crops are expected to be out of the way in ample time to begin on the tomato crop. EBELL NOTES The next regular meeting of the Ebell Society of Anaheim will be Saturday, October 4th, at 2:30 o'clock, in the Fremont school building. A mus- than six or seven miles an hour. At the corner Baker sought to elude a young lady on a bicycle coming east. Lavin called to him several times to get out of the way. Another auto was traveling westerly on Center street at a rapid rate. Lavin tried to steer clear of Baker and at the same time get out of the way of the approaching machine. His left front wheel struck Baker, knocking him down and the wheel passed over the body, resting upon Baker's stomach as Lavin brought his machine to a stop. Baker was extricated from his position by Germann and other bystanders who ran to the scene of the accident. Baker was taken to the sanitarium in Barney Stoffel's auto which was passing at the time. It was discovered that no bones had been broken and that the injuries sustained were trivial. Baker was taken to his home on South Claudina. The left front lamp of Lavin's machine was broken by the front left wheel as the machine was cramped about to get out of Baker's way. After taking his machine to a garage Lavin went to Baker's residence where he found him entirely uninjured. He generously offered to pay Baker for his loss of time as well as for medical attendance. No blame attaches to Lavin for the accident, it having been unavoidable. ANAHEIM MOOSE INITIATED IN T. B. HERD Delegation From Local Lodge Visit Los Angeles Brethren Monday Guy Duckworth, member of the Order of Moose in Honolulu, A. W. Wood and Joe McGaffen, members of the Anaheim order, were initiated into the mysteries of T. B. Herd No. 1 at Los Angeles Monday night. The candidates were accompanied to the city by Fred Dyckman, George Alexander, Wm. Kern, T. B. Beale and Leslie Swope. They drove to the city in Wood's and Swope's autoes and the morning sun was showing evidences of appearing above the horizon before the party reached home the next morning, which is prima facie evidence that the night was well spent. During the evening Mr. Beale presented to their hosts the silver loving cup which had been offered by the Anaheim Moose to the visiting lodge sending the largest delegation to Anaheim at the time of the carnival and which had been won by T. B. Herd No. 1. It was accepted in a neat and ap- ment of the state experiment station in a new location was taken Wednesday when Dr. Webber, head of the institution, accompanied by Walter M. Murtz, came down from Whittier to examine a site offered him through the Anaheim Board of Trade. Dr. Webber and Mr. Murtz arrived here Tuesday and spent the night with J. B. Neff at his walnut ranch southwest of town. The next day accompanied by Mr. Neff the doctor visited the ranch owned by Drs. Johnston and Houck, and another which has been offered but refused to make public his ideas or convictions as to the desirability of the sites. The state appropriated $60,000 for the purchase of this site and a tract of two hundred acres is desired but it is evident now that a tract of that size cannot be purchased for such a sum in the ferritory in which they wish to locate the experiment station, consequently a smaller acreage will be accepted. Dr. Webber has already examined a number of tracts in the upper valley and while he makes no statement as to the result of his investigations it is understood that that region is practically out of the running because of unfavorable weather conditions and the great depth to water. In a recent letter issued by Dr. Hunt, dean of the College of Agriculture, he referred to the fact that the experiment station would deal with walnut culture, as well as other products of the soil which are not given much if any attention in the upper valley. This statement of Dr. Hunt would seem to eliminate a number of sections in the upper valley which have been making strenuous efforts during the year for location of the station in their localities. Added to this is the fact that well pits in the upper valley are sunk to a depth of 300 feet and a volume only of 25 to 35 inches of water raised. In and about Anaheim well pits are from 50 to 60 feet in depth, and many of the plants raise 150 inches of water. The one item of expense for lifting water in the upper valley would seem to put that locality out of serious consideration. Moreover, harmful effects of frost are much more in evidence there than in this coast section. It is confidently believed that if Dr. Webber is seeking a site for the station in the locality which has the least danger of frost, and where water is the most abundant and cheapest, he must ultimately decide in favor of this section. The doctor and Mr. Murtz left for Whittier after viewing the site and little information as to their impressions could be obtained.

In response to the ever-increasing demand for a rest room and a place where committee meetings may be held the library trustees have fitted up as such the magazine room of the library. It is now ready for use by the public. Committees will kindly let the librarian know of their coming. A generous hearted lady donated a rug for the room. The room lacks a small table, a mirror, two footstools, several sofa cushions and a pillow for the couch. Who will be the donators? The Star Theater has changed ownership, Messrs. F. L. Ramharter of the firm of Griggs & Ramharter, and E. E. Baker, being the new proprietors. Messrs. Ramharter and Baker are both well known to the people of Anaheim and expect to make the Star a popular amusement resort. morning sun was showing evidences of appearing above the horizon before the party reached home the next morning, which is prima facie evidence that the night was well spent. During the evening Mr. Beale presented to their hosts the silver loving cup which had been offered by the Anaheim Moose to the visiting lodge sending the largest delegation to Anaheim at the time of the carnival and which had been won by T. B. Herd No. 1. It was accepted in a neat and appreciative speech by one of the Los Angeles herd. Going into Los Angeles Monday night the party was held up at the city limits by a soulless policeman who took the number of Mr. Wood's car and cited him to appear in court today and answer to the charge of leaving his muffler open, which, it appears, is a violation of the laws of Los Angeles. Mr. Wood was not aware that he had reached the city limits. He went up to the city today to appear in police court and will probably be taxed $25. A BIG PROFIT Seven years ago $7,200 was paid for 29½ acres on North Tustin street at Villa Park. A deal has just been closed for the sale of the ranch for $50,000. The property was bought by C. E. Isaacson and his partner, Powers. The ranch was set out to oranges. The property lies but a short distance from where the Standard Oil Company is drilling its well, and part of the price of $50,000 may have been for the ranch's prospective oil value. The purchaser is a syndicate known as the Taylor, Garrett & Van der Slite Syndicate, that has dealt in Mexican oil and land properties. B. V. Beebe and wife, who have been spending a vacation at Seal Beach are at home again. of frost are much more in evidence there than in this coast section. It is confidently believed that if Dr. Webber is seeking a site for the station in the locality which has the least danger of frost, and where water is the most abundant and cheapest, he must ultimately decide in favor of this section. The doctor and Mr. Murtz left for Whittier after viewing the site and little information as to their impressions could be obtained. The Agricultural Experiment Station will eventually develop into one of the most important institutions of its kind in the United States and should Anaheim be fortunate enough to land it, it will be a great benefit to this locality. A faculty of the most expert men in the world in their line of business will be maintained. NINE BIDDERS FOR LOGICAL ROADS State Highway Commission Has Under Consideration Offers For Constructing Orange County Roads The California State Highway Commission this afternoon opened the bids for three portions of road improvement to be made. The stretch in San Benito county, estimated cost of $34,177.43, was bid upon by eight firms, the bids ranging from $24,650 to $51,836.50. The improvements in Monterey county, estimated cost of $39,684.49, brought out eight bids, ranging from $27,998.50 to $58,130.25. The Orange county improvements, estimated cost $69,239.89, were bid on by nine firms. The bids ranged from $56,946.30 to $85,519.20.

Danied by Mr. Neff the ranch owned by Buck, and another but refused to COUNTY'S CRUSHER GOOD INVESTMENT Will Save the County at Least $200,000 It is Estimated With the county's new rock crushing plant in operation there has developed what should prove a paying investment to Orange county, as it already has proven a benefit to the city of Orange. The big plant is not only bringing a large payroll, which will continue to grow larger, but will in the end save to the county a sum roughly estimated at $200,000. The rock crushing plant, recently completed by Contractor H. Shipkey of this city, stands 72 feet in height. It consists of two belt conveyors, the crusher and the elevator in which the screens and different bins are contained. The plant is operated by a 40horse power electric motor, with separate motors for the belt conveyors. The Southern Pacific tracks extend into the gravel beds to receive the output. The rock crushing process begins with the belt conveyors. One of the two belts measures 121 feet and the other 120 feet.

Experiment Station into one of the it consists of two belt conveyors, the crusher and the elevator in which the screens and different bins are contained. The plant is operated by a 40-horse power electric motor, with separate motors for the belt conveyors. The Southern Pacific tracks extend into the gravel beds to receive the output. The rock crushing process begins with the belt conveyors. One of the two belts measures 121 feet and the other 120 feet. Only one is being used at present and they are arranged so that should one be disabled the other could be put in use. The rock and gravel is dumped on the belt conveyors by scrapers and carried to the crusher which easily handles good sized boulders and reduces them to a convenient, uniform size. They are then lifted by shovel conveyors to the elevator and there sifted through screens and separated into various bins according to the grade of rock. There are eight bins, each provided with a chute through which the rock can be loaded into the cars. The plant is surrounded by an unlimited supply of gravel, extending down 25 feet, which, by shifting the apparatus, can be conveyed to the elevator from any side. The capacity is from 300 tons to 400 tons of crushed rock per day and the output could be doubled by running a double shift if necessary. The commercial value of the plant according to Superintendent Shipkey is that it saves the county about 40 cents a yard for gravel for the new county highway. At that rate, it is believed that the total saving n the entire system of highway will amount to about $200,000. While the original plan of the county highway commission in building the plant was merely to supply gravel and rock for home use, it would be possible, should the commission choose to do so, to sell to outside concerns or projects. The output of the plant at present exceeds the demand and the rock is being turned out faster than it is used. There appears to be plenty for outside consumption above what will be needed for the county roads though the commission has not yet considered selling the gravel to others. As Contractor Shipkey stated at the plant Saturday, enough could be sold to pay for the plant after getting all that was needed here. Mr. Shipkey also stated that at the rate of saving on each yard of gravel the plant would probably pay itself anyway within a year. At present there are about 15 men and five teams at work around the plant. As soon as the hauling of gravel begins in earnest, there will be probably 50 teams at work. The payroll Orange County Christian Endeavor Union, will be held in the Presbyterian church of Anaheim on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, October 3, 4 and 5. The theme is, "Christian Endeavors Home Missions," a fascinating and important topic. One important feature is that the speakers are all practical men and women actually doing the work they tell about. There are no idle dreamers or theorists on the program. On Friday evening special attention will be given to "Floating Work," the missionary work done by Endeavorers in our seaport cities. Stereopticon views will be given and Jay H. Walker, who was converted while a naval sailor at San Diego, will tell of the work being done there. Attention will also be paid to this work on Saturday when John Makins, ex-superintendent of the Seamen's Rest, Nagasaki, Japan, and now in charge of the San Pedro Sailor's Rest, will speak. Saturday evening will be devoted to hospital work. Chaplain John M. Ross will speak of the work being done in the Los Angeles county hospital. Among the prominent speakers are Dr. J. H.

ENJOYABLE DAY SPENT IN CANYON ENJOYABLE DAY SPENT IN CANYON Seventeen Anaheimers Eat Barbecued Meats in Trabuco Sunday Trabuco Canyon is some distance from Anaheim and it is a pretty long trip to make just for the purpose of barbecuing some meat and consuming it in one of its shady spots, but the merry party of Anaheimers who motored down Sunday morning unanimously declare it was worth the price. There were 17 persons in the crowd, the party consisting of Trustee John Cook and family, W. H. Houts, wife and daughter, J. W. Walls, wife and two grand children, M. W. Martenet and wife, Wm. McCann and wife and Henry Hanson and wife. The party left early in the morning going by way of San Juan Capistrano, and arrived at the canyon about 10 o'clock. Besides an ample supply of eatables 20 pounds of beef was taken along and Johnny Walls was unanimously elected chef for the purpose of superintending the cookery, an art which he thoroughly understands. After the banquet the male portion of the party spent the balance of the day hunting doves and jack rabbits which, they say, are plentiful in the canyon. Manager Grim, of the Ganahl Lumber Company, was doing business in the Bakersfield region last week.
