ANAHEIM GAZETTE Thursday, Oct. 21 WELL KNOWN WOMAN IS CALLED BY DEATH Mrs. George H. Warren of Buena Park Dies in Los Angeles Hospital After a comparatively short illness Mrs. George H. Warren of Buena Park passed away in Los Angeles, Tuesday, October 6th. Her death came as a distinct shock to her many friends in Buena Park. She had been in very good health until about two months ago, when she went with her husband to the family's summer home in the San Bernardino mountains. The altitude affected her heart action and she was brought home quite ill. Some improvement was noted and she afterward spent some time in Los Angeles. About three weeks ago she was stricken with paralysis, and never rallied from the stroke. The funeral was held Friday, October 8, from the undertaking parlors of the Dexter-Samson Co. in Los Angeles and was largely attended, many from Buena Park going up to pay their last tribute of love and respect. Interment was in Rosedale cemetery. Mrs. Warren was born 73 years ago, at Rome, N.Y., and in that city February 9, 1864, was married to George H. Warren. Their golden wedding was celebrated last year. Mr. and Mrs. Warren lived for some time in Michigan and came to Buena Park about fifteen years ago. Their only child is Mr. Henry E. Warren, the well known business man of that place. Mrs. Warren was a woman of lovely disposition. It has often been remarked of her that she never grew old. In her passing the community has sustained a severe loss and she will be greatly missed.

Phones HOME 1751 PACIFIC 217 Citrus Growers and Others—Attention! $2.70 PER TON F.O.B. Corona (sacked) A MINERAL FERTILIZER Containing the largest percentage of iron sulphides, free from arsenic, carrying 108 pounds of commercial sulphuric acid to 100 pounds of iron sulphides; a large percentage of gypsum, scientifically mixed by nature. Why add a few pounds of available plant food per acre, at from $30 to $60 a ton, when you have from forty to sixty thousand pounds per square foot per acre of unavailable plant food in your soil? And nothing will make it available and attack the undecomposed material but Acid. We are now shipping daily to some of the largest growers in Southern California, who, upon investigation, find that we have the largest percentage of sulphuric per ton to be found anywhere. It has no equal for gum disease or yellow mottle. A. FOLSOM, G. A. 170 S. Main St., Pomona, Cal. or G. H. Hadley, Corona Cal.
