ORANGES EAGERLY SOUGHT IN SMALL TEXAS TOWNS
Covina Man Realizes Well on Small Consignment Taken Along with Household Goods
Carying with him 25 loose field boxes of Covina oranges, which he bought here for less than $9, and upon which he made $75 in less than three hours of selling time, C. D. Bost, an employee of the city of Covina, is back from a visit to his home in Crowell, Texas, with a remarkable statement.
Mr. Bost recently was oblidged to make a trip to Texas with household goods belonging to his father, who was moving back from Covina to his old home. The young man conceived the idea of taking some oranges with him. The result being more than satisfactory, and this young man, who has made no particular study of orange marketing, is willing to say that one of the biggest bets the orange growers ever had put up to them is being passed up as worthless, namely, the selling possibilities in the small towns of the Pacific coast states. "The people of Crowell, Texas, and other towns of its kind, are all people of moderate means, in a general sense," said Mr. Bost. When oranges arrive in such places, if they arrive at all, they sell for 5 cents each, sometimes more. This makes it practically impossible for these people to buy oranges to any extent. As a rule, they never see any oranges at all, as those small towns are not included in the selling idea of the orange marketing systems.

the harbor bill and its companion measures had been passed by the assembly and will now go to the senate.
This is good news for the Newport harbor boosters. The bill was prepared by Bishop, who is city attorney of Newport Beach. Under it the county or a part of the county can be formed into a harbor district and bonds voted and an executive board organized for the improvement of the harbor.
SUBMARINE F-4 MOTORS DEFECTIVE, IS CLAIM
Widow of Chief Machinist's Mate Makes Startling Charges Concerning Ill-Fated Vessel
Mrs. Elsie Ebright Nelson, widow of William S. Nelson, chief machinist's mate of the United States submarine F-4, lost with its crew of twenty one, two miles off Honolulu harbor, on the morning of March 25, has returned to the home of her mother, Mrs. I. M. Ebright, who is the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. W. L. Wilhite, Santa Ana, after a ten-day vigil on the docks at Honolulu during the vain attempts to rescue her husband of sixteen months and his companions on the F-4.
By virtue of here intimate association with the man who probably knew more than any other about the actual condition of the F-4 when it made its last and fatal dive, she is perhaps as well qualified to speak of the disaster as any person living. She makes the following charges:
That, although the F-4 had just been dry-docked and her machinery overhailed, she was ordered out for submarine work with her motors defective.
That this condition was known to the officers and members of the crew and that they and members of their families, in consequence of this knowl-

As a rule, they never see any oranges at all, as those small towns are not included in the selling idea of the orange marketing systems.
"When I went on to the main street with an old ice wagon filled with Covina oranges, and offered them for $2 a bushel, or $1 for a half-bushel, I had $14 in my pocket before I could measure out anything to my first customer. I could have sold twenty times what I had with me. The oranges I had brought with me were in the condition just as they were picked, some of them dirty. I had picked them with a few leaves attached, and in some cases, in bunches of three and fours. They looked fresh and good. They were fine oranges. But they weren't fussed up with wrappers, and they hadn't been packed or washed."
Bost says there are plenty of towns in Texas of from 1000 to 2000 population like Crowell, that would gladly buy California oranges if the prices were not prohibitive. An orange grower could well afford to load a freight car and send a man with it to these points. One car would not sell in one small town, but with transferring privileges a car could easily be sold in two or three towns, and according to his figuring would not from $500 to $600 profit to the grower without fuss and expense of packing, iceing and the general work of merchandising.
This simple exploit of the Covina employee is causing a great deal of comment here locally. It shows what has long been known or suspected, that the intricate methods of marketing, and that the small towns are being almost entirely overlooked on the Pacific coast, as well as, of course, in the eastern states.
The citizens of Crowell urged Bost to return with a carload of oranges, and he says he is going to do it. In the car with its oranges, Bost had a floral brunches and bunches of palm dates. These created a good deal of interest and were used to decorate the local drug store.—Covina Argus.

SANTA ANAN INJURED
Weapon Falls to Floor and is Discharged; Bullet Shatters Ankle
Charles E. Grouard, the well known Santa Ana contractor, is in the Santa Ana hospital as the result of the accidental discharge of his revolver. While the wound is not at this time considered serious, it is very painful and will likely cause a permanent injury. Mr. Grouard always keeps the revolver under his pillow, and as he was dressing the gun accidentally dropped to the floor, where the shock exploded it. The 45-calliber bullet entered the left leg at the ankle bone, shattering it badly. Advices from his home elicited the information that the bullet, together with nine shattered pieces of bone, had been removed from the wound and that Mr. Grouard was resting nicely.

Brown Leghorn Hen Raises Fluffy Fledgings 40 Feet From Terra Firma
A tale is told of a Brown Leghorn hen that is first cousin of a brown bird of a dove or some other bird that makes nests in trees. This particular Brown Leghorn belongs to Mr. Johnson, who has a ranch in the Santa Ana canyon. The canyon rancher was taking a stroll under some of the beautiful trees that adorn his place when suddenly there flopped down through the limbs a fluttering, fluffy chick. The newborn creature landed at his feet right side up with care.
Johnson decided to investigate, for while he had heard of its raining pitchforks and cats and dogs, he had never heard of its raining chicks. Besides, there was no storm brewing or brewed.
The rancher climbed into the tree, his eye upon a gathering of twigs and trash that might at one time have been a rat's nest or a hawk's nest. The nest was forty feet from the ground. In it were a clucking Brown Leghorn hen and thirteen little chicks—making fourteen in the aerie. Johnson alced the hen and her offspring in a descent to the ground.

SOLD FOR $96,511
The last $100,000 worth of California state highway bonds, which were purchased some time ago by the board of supervisors so that highway work in this county could be rushed to completion have been ordered sold to Uerrin, Drake & Riley of Los Angeles. The price was $96,511 and the accrued interest, which makes the bonds a paying proposition to Orange county.
This figure is a little better than the first lot of bonds brought.
It is understood that Orange county enjoys the unique distinction of being the old county in the state which had sold its bonds at a profit.
Other bids received for the bonds were as follows: Bryne & McDonald, $96,190; Hammond, Stewart & Co., $95,963; Torrance-Marshall company, $96,126.80; N. W. Halsey & Co., $95,260; William R. Staats company, $95,818.
MAN HELD ON INSANITY CHARGE
H. L. Stinchfield of Olive has filed an insanity complaint against S. B. Squires, 76 years old, of that place. Squires was arrested on a charge of disturbing the peace. He became violent and gave the officers had a hard scrap before he was subdued. He made threats against the lives of the sheriff and his deputies and against his neighbors at Olive, saying that he would kill all of them when he was released. The man claims to hear spiritual voices, accuses his neighbors of mistreating their families, issuing no fund checks, and thinks he is the only one who will prosecute them, and for punishment he is going to kill them.
Friday morning it was ordered that Squires be sent to the insane asylum at Patton. Squires is 82 years old. He had threatened to kill neighbors.

COUNTY AUDITOR
ROBBED AT SAN DIEGO
W. C. Jerome Loses Watch and Purse At Fair City
County Auditor W. C. Jerome was robbed of his gold watch and chain, Elks' tooth watch charm, and his purse containing over $25 in bills, gold and silver at the San Diego fair Saturday night. Mr. Jerome, accompanied by his family and his brother, B. W. Jerome, and family, left in his auto for San Diego Friday morning. The party stopped at the Burnap. Arriving at the hotel at 11 o'clock Saturday night, after a day spent viewing the sights of the exposition city, Mr. Jerome went to bed, inadvertently leaving his trousers on a chair near the bed. Sleeping soundly after the tiresome day, neither Mr. Jerome nor his wife heard the thief enter the room, lift the trousers from the chair, remove the valuables from the pockets and again quietly leave the room.
On arising in the morning, Mr. Jerome found the door of the room ajar, and his trousers lying on the floor near the door. Noticing at once that they had been tampered with, he examined them and found that his valuables had been stolen. A watch, purse and jewelry belonging to Mrs. Jerome and lying on the dresser were not disturbed, probably not being noticed by the thief during his short stay in the room.
Mr. Jerome says it is possible that the door to the room was left unlocked by mistake, as he and his wife were both tired when they arrived at the hotel Saturday night. It is certain that the thief entered by the door, and either found it unlocked, or also opened it by the use of skeleton keys.
are greater, stronger and more numerous in England, Germany and all Europe than in this country. The Underwood bill invites the goods made by foreign corporations and trusts and closes the factories owned by American combinations, good or bad. We agree that is ruinous to our country.
The democrats oppose protective duties as will equalize the difference in cost of production abroad with the cost here, chiefly the difference in wages.
The Underwood bill ignored this to such an extent as to put millions of Americans out of jobs or on half time; relieved the foreign trusts and business of import duties, which brought in enough money to pay the ordinary expenses and not exceed the revenues, and made a bad matter worse by criminal extravagance, appropriating a hundred millions a year more than was ever appropriated before; and they put on a new tax on incomes and, when that did not fill the gap levied a war tax to raise a hundred millions more a year, and still have an enormous deficit which will require another hundred millions of new, oppressive taxes or bond issues, without counting in the $35,000,000 for railroads in Alaska, $30,000,000 for merchant ships, $30,000,000 for the Nicaragua treaty. We are all opposed to all that.
A Louisville paper recently said editorially that the business failures in January, 1915, were more than a thousand more than in January, 1914, and at that, it didn't include the greatest and worst failure of all our history—the failure of the firm of Wilson Bryan & Co.

In commenting upon the situation the secretary og agriculture said that the situation was vastly more serious than it was in 1912, when a threatened shortage of twine resulted in a sharp rise in price from 7 to 12 cents a pound. Then it was a matter of price; if Progress were to be closed, this year it would be a matter of actual scarcity which would result in the waste of a great part of the crops.

Wedding at Garden Grove.
A very pretty wedding occurred Wednesday at 1 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Knapp at Garden Grove when Mr. Knapp's charming sister, Miss Rachel Knapp, became the bride of Mr. Martin Christensen.
The home was artistically decorated for the occasion with spirea and roses. The impressive double ring ceremony was performed by Rev. William Thomas, pastor of the First Baptist church of Garden Grove. The bride wore a beautiful royal purple broadcloth traveling suit. Those who witnesses the wedding were some of the members of the immediate families. After the service came congratulations, a dinner and the usual shower of rice.
J. A. Knapp took the happy couple to Santa Ana where they left for San Diego on the 2:21 p.m. train. The bride is one of Garden Grove's most popular young ladies and the groom one of its rising business men. He is one of the firm of Christensen Bros., Cement Pipe Company. The community joins in wishing them a happy and prosperous life. Mr. and Mrs. Christensen will be at home after the 14th Annelion on their ranch northeast of Anaheim.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS A PROTECTIONIST
He Believed Free Trade an Enemy Of American Labor and a Producer Of Hard Times
At the Lincoln birthday banquet of the Lincoln Protective club, at Louisville, presided over by Judge George Du Relle, of Louisville, ex-Governor August E. Wilson said, in part:
We are all glad that Providence gave Abraham Lincoln to our country in its time of greatest danger. He was the very type and spirit of the beat in American character; the noblest, truest, wisest, most unselfish spirit in our history, or in the history of the world. He never faltered in his devotion to principle and he never failed to see clearly the difference between what was not necessary and could be yielded, wisely, to secure the final victory for the right.
We love him, honor him and trust him, and at last the world knows he was right. Democrats as well as republicans, and progressive republicans, all claim Abraham Lincoln as conclusive authority for their many contentions. All recognized his noble common sense, his lofty patriotism and his inspired wisdom as conclusive on what the country needs.
Of course many such claims are mistaken, and some not true, but no one questions his life, his deeds or his principles.
He opposed the democratic party and its policies. All of us have opposed them steadily, and shall oppose them with greater reason than ever before, and unite for a new freedom from all they do and promise or threaten to do.
Abraham Lincoln was for America first, and we are. He declared that when we made and sold our goods in America the money stayed. In our country to benefit our own business and workers, and when we bought foreign goods that could be produced

CAR, 25 YEARS IN SEA, YIELDED UP BY OCEAN WAVES
After resting on the bed of the ocean for 25 years, a Southern Pacific flat car was washed ashore on the sands of Newport Beach, near 36th street one morning recently.
January 12, 1890, the Southern Pacific drove the last spike which connected Newport and Santa Ana by rail, and the first train was run over the track. A month later a terrific storm lashed the coast and six hundred feet of the Southern Pacific pier washed away, and with it three flat cars.
Some time later one was found about four miles up the coast near Huntington Beach, and another was washed ashore several rods from the pier, near 28th street.
The third one was never seen until the other morning, when it was brought in by the waves and lodged against the piling of the old 36th street pier.
Although covered with rust, the iron truss rods and couplings are in good condition and the wooden beams do not look much worse for their 25-years’ bath.
MEXICAN FIBER INDISPENSABLE
A serious calamity recently threatened the agricultural industry because of the disturbance in Yucatan and the announced blockage of the port of Progreso by Gen. Carranza. The harvesting of practically all grains with modern machinery was involved. If the port of Jragreso had been closed it would have been impossible to secure the sisal fiber used in the manufacture of blinder twine. It was urgent that this fiber be secured immediately and come forward in large quantities by the first of April, otherwise the factories could not have manufactured it in time in sufficient volume for the use of the farmers in harvesting this season’s crop. It would have been necessary to harvest by hand, and to have harvested a large part of the grain in this way would have been impossible. The matter was so serious that it has happy couple to Santa Ana where they left for San Diego on the 2:21 p.m. train. The bride is one of Garden Grove’s most popular young ladies and the groom one of its rising business men. He is one of the firm of Christensen Bros., Cement Pipe Company. The community joins in wishing them a happy and prosperous life. Mr. and Mrs. Christensen will be at home after the 14th of April on their ranche northeast of Garden Grove.
Last Gap Closed.
The last five-mile gap on the all-boulevard route to Los Angeles from Buena Park by way of Norwalk, being covered. Within due process of time which the construction requires it will be possible for people from Anaheim, Garden Grove and the south side of the county to get to Los Angeles by the shortest paved route there. The culverts are in place and the grading is being done. The gap between Norwalk and Santa Fe Springs has been finished after the work was delayed by the rain. So that now all that remains is this short gap from Northam to Norwalk.
Buena Park Boulevard
Grand avenue is to be one of the very attractive streets of Buena Park. For a mile and a quarter, the curbing has been put in place. For the distance of a block between the railway and the church, concrete sidewalks have been put down. A new walk has been put down in front of Bishop’s store and the drug store. Just now the improvement is halted till the electric light and telephone poles are moved. It is the plan to grade and oil the street for the entire distance in which the curbing has been placed and make this a first class street in every way.
Hen Fruit Galore.
The hens in the Buena Park section are exceedingly industrious. From the Southern Pacific railway station, 200 cases of hen fruit are shipped each week on an average. This is 6,000 dozen a week or 72,000 single eggs. As many as 62 cases in a day have been shipped. This week cabbage is moving. Two carloads going out. The price has jumped from seven and eight dollars to seventeen and twenty dollars.
Placentia’s Grapefruit.
and its policies. All of us have opposed them steadily, and shall oppose them with greater reason than ever before, and unite for a new freedom from all they do and promise or threaten to do.
Abraham Lincoln was for America first, and we are. He declared that when we made and sold our goods in America the money stayed in our country to benefit our own business and workers, and when we bought foreign goods that could be produced here, and the money went abroad to benefit other countries and their business and workers, we lost something that we did not need to lose, and we all believed in that.
He believed that free trade and tariff for revenue only opened our home market to foreigners and shut down our industries and threw great numbers of our workmen out of employment and brought hard times and business ruin or depression to our country, and we believe that, too.
And Andrew Jockson, whose birthday our democratic president celebrated in his Indianapolis speech, believed it, too, and in his message to congress in 1830 he denounced the practise of selling imported products in our markets as a "selfish and destructive policy," and declared that we have the right to protect our people against it by imposing protective duties, else our people and political system would present the anomaly of a people stripped of the right to foster their industry.
The democrats opposed the Sherman anti-trust law as a matter for the states to deal with, and prevented the republican anti-trust constitutional amendments getting a two-thirds vote.
They enacted the Underwood low tariff bill. We are all opposed to that.
The English Parliament and the German Reichstag would have voted for it unanimously, as a measure applying to the United States.
The trusts in all lines of business cure the silk fiber used in the manufacture of binder twine. It was urgent that this fiber be secured immediately and come forward in large quantities by the first of April, otherwise the factories could not have manufactured it in time in sufficient volume for the use of the farmers in harvesting this season's crop. It would have been necessary to harvest by hand, and to have harvested a large part of the grain in this way would have been impossible. The matter was so serious that the president and the secretary of state, on representations from the department of agriculture, took the matter promptly in hand. At the request of the president, Gen. Carranza abandoned blockade of the port of Progreso.
In normal years about 200,000,000 pounds of binder twine are required for harvesting the grain, corn and flax crops. From two-thirds to three-fourths of this is made from honequen (alsa) fiber, practically all of which is produced in Yucatan and exported from Progreso. This year the demand for twine is certain to be greater than ever. Last year's wheat crop was the largest country has ever produced; this year's is expected to be still larger. Nine hundred million bushels is the estimate if normal conditions prevail from now to harvest. It is probable that the production of the other grains, especially oats, will also be increased, and the other crops, the sorghums and corn, will at least be the equal of normal years.
The disturbances in Mexico have already caused an appreciable shortage in the stock of fiber now in this country. Between January 1 and February 28, 67,489 bales of 350 pounds each were brought in as compared with 156,659 bales in the same period last year and 111,654 in 1913. If further supplies had been permitted to be cut off the lack of twine would have re-
Placentia's Grapefruit.
Grapefruit of unusual size and weight is winning fame for Placentia as a citrus growing section. Placentia's exhibits of oranges and lemons at the National Orange show at San Bernardino carried off many blue ribbons.
The giant grapefruit, measuring fifteen inches in circumference, and in some instances sixteen inches and weighing a pound and a half are attracting attention from eastern visitors at the chamber of commerce at Los Angeles. The exhibit from Orange county ranks with the best for displays. In addition to the grapefruit, the prize-winning lemons and oranges are being shown.
The grapefruit from Orange county also has won attention at the San Francisco and San Diego fairs.
Four boxes of the large-sized grapefruit have arrived from Placentia at the Orange county exhibit at the chamber of commerce. Another supply will be sent from Placentia within the next few days.
Several dozen of the giant grapefruit have been distributed to visitors. The supply on hand is limited, however, and no more will be given away for the present until additional shipments arrive.
"I have seen good sized grapefruit before," declared one enthusiastic visitor, "but these beat them all. I don't see how they are able to stay on the tree without breaking down the branches."

PROLONGING LIVES
The striking difference between the ages of the commanding officers in the present war as compared with those of earlier times is attributed by the British Medical Journal to the saving of bodily wear and tear brought about by modern inventions. The paper suggests that Napoleon would not have broken down so soon if he had been able to use automobile, telephone and telegraph.
Generals a few generations ago were young men, because they soon broke down under the hardships of campaigning. They had to live in the saddle and keep the field under eye in order to be able to direct the movements. Nowadays, the general stays in his base quarters, where he follows operations on a map as reports come in by telephone and telegraph, occasionally by motorcycle, from various parts of the line. When he goes on a tour of inspection he rolls along in a motor car at his ease.
Contrasting the ages of the former great generals with the leaders in the present war, the journal says:
"When Napoleon's star was eclipsed forever at Waterloo, he was but 46 years of age, but he had been a broken man in body, and to an increasing extent in mental power, long before. Wellington fought his last battle at 46, Ney at 45, Nelson at 46; Alexander the Great was only 33 when death ended his career of conquest; Hannibal was in his 46th year when he was finally defeated by Scipio. Sir John French and General Joffre are both over 60; Generals Pau and Gaillenl are veterans of the war of 1870; General von Kluck is nearly 70 and Marshal von Hindenburg is 67."
