ORANGE COUNTY TO EXHIBIT AT SAN BERDO ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS DECIDE TO HAVE A DISPLAY AT NATIONAL ORANGE SHOW NEWLANDS-BROUSSARD RIVER PROTECTION BILL ENDORSED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE Orange county will have a county exhibit at the National Orange show at San Bernardino in February. This fact was determined upon at the meeting of the associated chambers at Newport Beach Wednesday night. The details of financing and exhibiting are still to be worked out, but the fact that there is to be an exhibit seemed to be fully established. A delegation of seven men came to the meeting from San Bernardino to urge the county to enter an exhibit. It was pointed out that in previous shows Placentia and Newport Beach have had individual exhibits, but the county has never made a county showing. F. C. Krause said that with the aid of the county an excellent display could be made, and he made a motion to appoint a committee to see that an exhibit is made. J. A. Armitage joined in urging a feature exhibit as an advertising medium. Supervisor Schumacher said that the county's advertising fund is very low, but he thought something could be done by the county to aid the project. The motion carried. A. S. Brantford of Placentia, who has had more experience exhibiting at the National Orange show than any other man in the county, said that a good feature exhibit could not be put up for less than $1000. He said that navies of this county are in good color already. The county leads the state in Valencias, but February is not an advantageous month for snowing Valencias. In talking over the selection of aulent tubercle bacilli, which were proved to be fully capable of causing tuberculosis, but after 30 minutes exposure to the sun no living tubercle bacilli could be found; every test that could be made proved that they were all dead. Similar tests with quite large opaque masses of tuberculous material, larger and denser than any tuberculous person is apt to expectorate, proved that the bacilli in such masses on glass are still alive after 4, but entirely dead in less than 8 hours, and still alive in the material on wood and muslin after 8, but dead in less than 16 hours. The tuberculous material in thin layers, kept in a dark room, was proved to contain fully virulent, living bacilli after 30 days. The contrast is remarkable, tubercle bacilli of the same kind, on the same kind of material, dying in a smaller number of minutes in the sunshine than the number of days they remained alive in a dark room. As most varieties of disease germs are more easily destroyed by germides than tubercle bacilli, and as tubercle bacilli, in the thin layers in which they are likely to adhere to clothing, blankets, rugs, draperies, furniture, walls, floors, etc., are killed by the rays of the sun in less than half an hour, though they remain alive in dark places a month and longer, it is reasonable to draw the following conclusions: (a) As a general sanitary principle it is desirable that all dwellings, stables, etc., should be constructed that an abundance of sunshine can reach their interiors. (b) As a general protective measure against disease germs, it is an excellent practice to expose utensils for handling milk, and milk cans after they have been cleaned, to direct sunlight, and to hang or spread wearing apparel, blankets, bedding, rugs, horse blankets, etc., periodically where the... or said that the county's advertising fund is very low, but he thought something could be done by the county to aid the project. The motion carried. A. S. Bradford of Placentia, who has had more experience exhibiting at the National Orange show than any other man in the county, said that a good feature exhibit could not be put up for less than $1000. He said that hues of this county are in good color already. The county leads the state in Valencias, but February is not an advantageous month for snowing Valencias. In talking over the selection of a committee to have charge of the exhibit, names mentioned were A. S. Bradford, E. K. Benchley, J. G. Launer, C. E. Utt, Willard Smith, Hugh T. Thomas, K. E. Watson, N. T. Edwards, L. M. York, F. E. Proud, F. K. Crosswell, J. W. Duckworth, N. Frank Morse, George Young. Finally, however, it was decided to let each chamber of commerce select one member of the committee; this committee to meet at 9:30 on the morning of December 21. Bradford was instructed to reserve space in the exhibit tent for Orange county. The Newland-Broussard river protection bill was endorsed after John A. McFadden, chairman of the legislative committee, had recommended it. McFadden showed that he had studied the measure closely, and briefly and clearly he outlined its purposes as a bill for systematic improvement of rivers and natural resources, systematic protective and reclamation work in the United States. On this report the bill was given indorsement. The bill was presented to the body for organization two months ago by Francis Cutle of Riverside. The Brea canyon road from the Orange county line to the Valley boulevard in Los Angeles county, is in a very bad condition, according to A. Bradford, and he moved that the board of supervisors be asked to confer with the Los Angeles supervisors on the matter, and get the road paved if possible. Secretary Metzgar read a communication from an oil association asking the organization to protest against the action of the federal government in withdrawing from entry oil lands in the Bakerfield section. A motion to refer the matter to the legislative committee with power to act was amended to leave out "with power to act." W. A. Cornellus said he thought the request came from rich oil men who are playing the game for themselves. A letter from J. P. Smith, county lecturer at the San Diego exposition, contained an encouraging report of the good advertisement the county has received there. The next meeting of the chambers will be held at Yorba Linda on January 29. The meeting was held at the Newport hotel where a turkey dinner was served. W. A. Cornellus made the address of welcome, which was responded to by J. A. Armitage of Sun- it is desirable that all dwellings, stables, etc., should be constructed that an abundance of sunshine can reach their interiors. (b) As a general protective measure against disease germs, it is an excellent practice to expose utensils for handling milk, and milk cans after they have been cleaned, to direct sunlight, and to hang or spread wearing apparel, blankets, bedding, rugs, horse blankets, etc., periodically where the sun can shine on all parts of them. CONFIRMED TESTIMONY The Kind Anaheim Readers Cannot Doubt Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test. The test of time—the hardest test of all. Thousands gratefully testify. To quick relief—to lasting results. Anaheim readers can no longer doubt the evidence. It's convincing testimony—twice told and well confirmed. Anaheim readers should profit by these experiences. P. G. Etchison, 826 E. St. Santa Ana, Cal., says: "I was troubled off and on by a dull, heavy pain in the small of my back. Stooping or remaining in a bent position long made the trouble worse. A box of Doan's Kidney Pills promptly cured me." (Statement given March 7, 1907) OVER SIX YEARS LATER Mr. Etchison said: "I haven't required a kidney medicine since using Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me to stay cured." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Etchison had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N.Y. MELON ACREAGE TO BE INCREASED NEXT YEAR The acreage of Mission Bell cantaloupes in California will be doubled next year, according to a statement made by K. Arakelian, head of the firm of Arakelian Bros., large shippers of melons, reports the Fresno Republican. The acreage in Imperial valley and at Turlock will be doubled. It is planned to plant 2,000 acres to Mission Bells at Imperial valley and 1,000 at Turlock. The cantaloupe men of Fresno are doubling their acreage at Imperial valley and increasing their acreage four times in the Turlock district. In 1915 the Arakelian Bros. doubled their acreage of 1914 and they now plan to double the 1915 acreage. They also plan to plant 1000 acres of water will be eliminated.

SUNSHINE A GERMICIDE Sunshine is an amazingly potent germicide for the farm housekeeper and in the dairy and stables. The practice of exposing cooking and other utensils used in connection with food to direct sunlight makes use of this fact, although comparatively few appreciate exactly the work done by the sun in this regard. Probably only those who are acquainted with tests which have actually been made realize how quickly sunshine kills disease germs exposed to it. Hence the following tests may be generally instructive and interesting. A pasty, creamy mass of tuberculous material, which was proved to contain uncountable numbers of virulent tubercle bacilli, was obtained from a tuberculous cow and spread in thin smooth translucent layers on sheets of glass, pieces of wood, and strips of muslin. Some of the sheets of glass, pieces of wood, and strips of muslin were then placed outdoors on a moderately warm, clear, calm day where the sun could shine on them, and an equal number were placed in a dark room. After 15 minutes exposure to the sun, the tuberculous material on the glass, wood, and muslin still contained large numbers of living, vir- MISSION PLAY ENDS, TO START ON TOUR Concluding a run of forty-four weeks this year and at the same time celebrating its thousandth presentation at San Gabriel Mission, the famous Mission Play, written and produced by John S. McGroarty, was presented for the last time at San Gabriel Saturday evening. Since its first appearance three years ago the Mission Play has been witnessed by more than a quarter of a million persons and has become recognized as one of the entertainment features of Southern California. So great has been the success of the Mission Play that the company have determined to undertake a continental tour with the production. The tour will begin within the next few weeks, with a series of engagements in the larger cities of the coast. SAFETY FIRST for your insurance policy in case of fire.

River protection was brought up for discussion, and it was moved by Trustee Schneider, seconded by Trustee Stark, that all rubbish, consisting of old cans, wire, etc., be hauled by the city teams and dumped alongside of the dike, recently completed on the west bank of the Santa Ana river at the Olive bridge. This is considered a good move on the part of the city, as the cans, when filled with sand during the swirl of the onrushing flood waters, will afford a barrier that will strengthen the dike greatly, and thus afford protection against a possible overflow. Engineer O. E. Steward, who has inspected the diking recently put in, maintains that the work, considering the amount of money available for that purpose, is of substantial character. By a proper reinforcement of the dike, water will naturally be diverted under the new bridge, thereby opening a channel, which, it is claimed will be permanent. The inauguration of river protection work at the point indicated has been a vexed question among residents here for sometime, but by concerted action of all parties concerned, it is confidently believed that all danger of a possible overflow will be eliminated. The finance committee reported the examination of the various officer's reports, which were found correct, and audited demands against the city in the amount of $5217.90, for which warrants were ordered drawn. Marshal's Report Collected for license ... $1113.00 Rate Collector's Report Collected for light ... $2444.05 Collected for water ... $1309.80 and orphans of Orange county who otherwise may feel the pinch of hard times this winter to a degree that will be anything but comfortable. It is stated that the state by statute provides that $100 may be taken from the state treasury each year for every orphan and $75 a year for every half orphan and every child that has been abandoned for more than a year is entitled to $100 a year exactly the same as orphans. Many deserving Orange county women and children, who are entitled to become beneficiaries of this fund have not made application, probably owing to the fact that they have not been informed of their rights. In order to facilitate the work of dispensing this fund properly, arrangements have been made by the county to pay over the proper amount immediately out of county funds to any person making the necessary representations and the county later reimbursed from state funds for all such moneys paid out. The work of distributing this fund is in charge of County Clork Williams and Auditor Jerome at the court house. The money is paid monthly by the county, and semiannually the county is re-imbursed from the state treasury.

This seemingly impossible feat has now been accomplished, and the accomplishment has come with startling suddenness. On September 29 a telephone message was transmitted from the wireless station at Arlington, Va., to the navy yard at Mare Island, near San Francisco, a distance of 2,5OO miles. Remarkable as this feat seemed at the moment, the actual accomplishment was found to be tremendously greater than supposed; when, on the following day, a cable message was received from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, about 4,8OO miles from the source of the wireless waves, saying that the conversation had been heard at that point. Subsequently it was found that several other distant wireless stations among them the one at Darlen, Panama had also picked up the message. Three days later, when communication was established with the Elfiff tower in Paris, the first wireless telephone message was Sec. 1, Ord. 94 ... 4 Sec. 2, Ord. 94 ... 20 Fines collected ... $55.00 The city treasurer reported a balance in the general fund, Dec. 8, of $34,757.42. Reports of the engineer of power house and street superintendent showing business transacted in their respective departments were received and ordered filed. The board adjourned to meet on Monday, December 20, at which time they will canvass the returns of the bond election which is to be held tomorrow. TO FIGHT CITRUS CANKER At the request of many orange growers, of Southern California, Representative Randall has taken up with the Department of Agriculture at Washington, the matter of providing protection for California oranges from the terrible citrus canker which is ravaging the groves of Florida. Since last January a quarantine has been in effect against the disease. The last congress authorized an expenditure of $35,000 for the eradication. The Gulf States appropriated a like amount, and for a year the battle has been raging. Entire orange groves in Florida have been burned down by the fruit inspectors, but the disease has not been conquered. The truth is that no real remedy has thus far been discovered except the destruction of affected trees. Another appropriation will be asked for by the present congress. STATE PROVIDES FOR DESTITUTE CHILDREN There is a provision in the state law which may be extremely helpful to a number of struggling mothers ing day, a cable message was received from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, about 4,800 miles from the source of the wireless waves, saying that the conversation had been heard at that point. Subsequently it was found that several other distant wireless stations among them the one at Darlen, Panama had also picked up the message. Three days later, when communication was established with the Eiffel tower in Paris, the first wireless telephone message was sent across the Atlantic. This message was also picked up at Pearl Harbor; the voice at Arlington being thus heard at two points about 8,000 miles apart. A hint as to the revolutionary changes likely to be brought about as a result of these accomplishments is given in a statement credited to the secretary of the navy, in which it is predicted that as soon as the new apparatus is perfected it will be installed on the ships of the American navy, when it is likely in a large degree to supplant the wireless telegraph. In this wireless apparatus, as well as in the new transcontinental telephone line, a device known as the incandescent audion amplifier is an essential part of the equipment. What is perhaps striking a feature as the distance over which the voice was transmitted in the first test, is the fact that the message was started from a telephone in an office building in New York City and made the first lap of its long journey over an ordinary telephone line, the electrical impulses carried over the wires being automatically converted into wireless waves by a transformer at the Arlington station. Such a combination of new apparatus opens practically unlimited possibilities.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. last excursions this year, to San Diego See the wonderful Exposition.

Los Angeles St. Anaheim A bad accident occurred in front of the Fullerton hospital last Thursday afternoon. The little eight-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Purdue was playing in the street as Mrs. Harry Inskeep of Anaheim was passing in her automobile, and in some way she ran over the boy. The little fellow's head struck the paving and he was rendered unconscious for over 24 hours, and at first the doctors thought it would prove fatal, but the little fellow is improving, and will recover. Just who is to blame for the accident seems to be a question.
