WILL CONSTRUCT TWO WOODEN BRIDGES SUPERVISORS WILL REPLACE YORBA STRUCTURE, ALSO SPAN RIVER ON RICHFIELD-OLIVE ROAD SUPERVISORS SCHUMACHER AND LECK PROTEST AGAINST THE BUILDING ON THE LOWER HIGHWAY By a vote of three to two the board of supervisors decided to favor both contending factions in the bridge controversy by ordering two bridges built. Supervisors Schumacher and Leck opposed the proposition and voted "no" on the motion which was made by Struck of Orange. Two wooden bridges, each 900 feet long, will be built, one on the site of the old one, and the other a mile and a half below, between Richfield and Olive. The cost of each will be close to $10,000. The board also voted to add 400 feet to the concrete bridge at Olive. When the Yorba bridge was swept away by the flood in January the people of Orange, Santa Ana and Olive got busy and demanded that the bridge site be abandoned, and the new bridge build between Olive and Richfield, a mile and a half below. This would give the people on the north can't get it any bonds, we will have to have a direct tax." After settling the bridge question other business was taken up by the board. Spraying licenses were ordered issued by W. A. Collman and Barnet & Vogel. The map of Heninger's Fourth Subdivision to the city of Santa Ana and board were approved. The petition of Ida F. Dutton, et al., for a county road in Anaheim road district was granted. The application of F. C. Krause to lay pipe line across Garden Grove boulevard, was granted. The petition of P. W. Ehlen, et al., to vacate and abandon a highway 20 feet wide in Orange road district, was set for hearing on May 3, 1916, at 10 a.m. The petition of L. H. Van Hoorebeke, et al., to close a portion of Fifth street in the town of Brea was granted. The clerk was directed to advertise for sale a franchise applied for by the Southern Counties Gas company, bids to be received up to 11 A.M. of May 16, 1916.

This would give the people on the north side more direct communication with Orange and Santa Ana, and give those towns an opportunity to divert to themselves some of the trade that was going to Anaheim and Fullerton. Delegations and petitions were sent to the supervisors and a frank effort was made to convince the board that the public interest demanded that the bridge be moved to the lower site. Seeing their bridge about to be lost to them Yorba people sent up an S. O. S. signal which was responded to by Anaheim, Fullerton, Placentia and Yorba Linda. Meetings were held, resolutions adopted and delegations sent before the board demanding that no change be made in the bridge site. The controversy, grew warm. A delegation of one hundred from the south side towns visited Yorba Linda to enlist sympathy for their cause, but were not even invited to come in and take a chair. They found the Yorba Lindans solidly opposed to removing the bridge. The Yorba people reminded the board that they had given of their lands free of cost to the county for road purpose when the highway was surveyed and the bridge built, and it would be an outrage to deprive them of the beenfits. After hearing both sides, receiving delegations and listening to much argument the board fixed Wednesday, April 5, as the date on which they would take action. A large number of interested people were present, several Anaheim men being in attendance. It had been announced that the board contemplated placating both parties by constructing two bridges. The north side was up in arms against this proposition claiming that it would be an injustifiable expenditure of public money to build two bridges so close together. Three members of the board, however, were determined and Struck made the motion that it be the sense of the board that the two wooden bridges be built and that a concrete "California products must be adequately protected if we are to enjoy prosperity," is a statement made by C. C. Chapman in a speech made at a republican rally at Blanchard hall, Los Angeles, Saturday. "We cannot successfully compete with the cheap labor of Europe. The republican party is the only party to which we can look for such legislative protection. The democratic party will not give it to us, but, on the other hand, much of the protection given us by the republican party was taken away from us by that party, the republican party therefore being the only party to which we may look for protection. It is vitally important that California must send both to the republican national convention and to congress to represent us only republicans of unquestioned loyalty to the old party. "The great party in the nation is coming back in power. We must appeal to it for needed tariff protection. The only hope of getting this will be to line up with the great party and do so with a large majority. We then may ask with the assurance of getting what we need. "With all due respect to the personnel of the united ticket, if California sends this delegation back to represent it at the national convention and the old party does come back into power, it will be futile for us to go to it asking from its hands the needed protection on our products. Our only hope is to redeem our already damaged reputation by sending to the convention, and by a tremendous majority, the regular delegation." Mrs. Abbie E. Krebs of San Francisco, also one of the candidates, told of the difference between the way the "United" picked their delegates and the republicans chose theirs. "We're delegates were chosen at a conference to which all members of the republican state central committee, and the various county central committees were invited, to which 600 responded bringing proxies for 350 more," she said.

It had been announced that the board contemplated placating both parties by constructing two bridges. The north side was up in arms against this proposition claiming that it would be an injustifiable expenditure of public money to build two bridges so close together. Three members of the board, however, were determined and Struck made the motion that it be the sense of the board that the two wooden bridges be built and that a concrete extension be built and placed upon the Olive bridge. Smith seconded it. "I want to make my position clear," said Leck. "I favor the extension on the Olive bridge, and I favor rebuilding on the Yorba site, but I do not favor building another bridge a mile and a half below the Yorba bridge." "I don't think two bridges are required at all, said Schumacher." One bridge at the old location is ample for the needs of that section. The lower site is no place to build a bridge. W. T. Brown said that the building of two bridges was unnecessary, and he considered money put into the lower bridge as money thrown away. "My position is this," said Talbert. "Supervisor Schumacher's district wants the bridge in one place, and Supervisor Struck's district wants it in another place. By building two bridges each district gets what it wants, and each bridge will be useful to different sections and under the circumstances advisable." H. M. Adams protested than an extra bridge across the Santa Ana river would be an unnecessary expenditure. "You endanger the $150,000 bonds," said Adams. "Looking at the proposition from the view point of the county as a whole, the second bridge ought not be built." "The question of the bonds is to be up to the people," said Talbert. "The money will have to be raised if the needed work is done, and it is a question for the people to say whether that money shall be raised by bonds. If we "United" picked their delegates and the republicans chose theirs. Our delegates were chosen at a conference to which all members of the republican state central committee, and the various county central committees were invited, to which 500 responded bringing proxies for 350 more," she said. "A committee was named to choose the delegates with the understanding that no member could be picked; each district brought before the committee the names of eligibles, and after several hours consideration twenty-six worthy men and women were chosen. "Forty persons assembled at the bidding of Guy C. Earl, attorney of the Great Western Power company, assisted by Al McCabe, Gov. Johnson's secretary, to choose the "Uniteds." They met at 11 o'clock in the morning the Associated Press was carrying the names of the chosen ones, while one northern paper claims to have received the official list the night before. Earl and Johnson had evidently picked those destined to wear the shroud of united republicanism and the meeting was merely a farce." SOIL SURVEY Excellent progress is now being made in the survey of Southern California's soil, begun last fall in Orange county, according to Arthur T. Strahorn of Washington, D.C., one of the government experts engaged in the work. Strahorn, in an interview at the hotel Stowell in Los Angeles, said that in a comparatively short time the Bureau of Soils, which is a branch of the U.S. department of agriculture, would have some extremely interesting facts to offer the public. The work of the soil experts began in Orange county last November and probably will not be completed until the middle of next summer. Expert piano tuning. F. W. Schmidt. ANAHEIM GAZETTE—THURSDAY, APRIL 18 WATER COMPANY CONSIDERING LEASE SELBY REFINING CO. WANTS 700 ACRES OF LAND AT HORSE-SHOE BEND BOARD WILL TEST FLUME AT FILL NO. 12 ON SATURDAY BEFORE ACCEPTING JOB Mr. Selby of the Selby Refining company appealed before the board of directors of the Anaheim Union Water company Saturday to negotiate a lease on the 700 acres of the company's property near Horseshoe Bend. The question of a lease was discussed and Mr. Selby was instructed to prepare a lease which he would be willing to sign and the board would consider it. The report of the finance committee was read and approved and warrants ordered drawn for the various amounts recommended. The reports of the treasurer and secretary were each in turn received and filed. On motion duly seconded the president and secretary were authorized to browr a sufficient sum of money to meet the needs of the company and give the company's note therefore.

Spruce, white pine and poplar are the species most used. Mill waste, free from bark, furnishes much of the raw material for making wood flour. For use in dynamite, the trade demands are said to require a white wood flour, since the freshness of dynamite stock is indicated by a light color. Dynamite flour must also be very absorptive, so there will be no leakage of nitro glycerine from the finished product. Wheat flour mill refuse and infusorial earth have also been used in dynamite making, but wood flour has practically replaced them in this country. In the manufacture of linoleum, either wood or cork flour is used.

There is plenty of vegetation, and there will be plenty of flowers if some dry, hot spell coming at the wrong time does not shrivel them up. "The bees are not getting as much benefit out of the orange bloom this year as usual," said Pleasants. "The bloom came a month earlier than usual, a good deal of it being open by the middle of March. At that time, the stands were not well built up and were not ready for the blooms. However, they are getting to work in good shape now. "The stands over the county show the bees to be in a healthier condition than they were at this time last year. That is one good sign in favor of a successful season."

Wheat flour mill refuse and infusorial earth have also been used in dynamite making, but wood flour has practically replaced them in this country. In the manufacture of linoleum,either wood or cork flour is used.The flour is mixed with a cementing material, spread out on burlap and pressed to a uniform thickness.The cement is the expensive constituent.Cork linoleum is the cheaper because less cement is necessary.The patterns are printed on, leaving a dark base For inlaid or straight line linoleum,wood flour is used exclusively.Cork linoleum is always dark,and slightly more elastic than that produced from wood flour.The wearing qualities are about the same. Two methods of producing flour are practiced,一one using millstones,the other steel burr rollers to pulverize the wood.The latter requires only one-fourth as much power to operate as the former and was developed on the Pacific coast to handle sawdust as a raw material.The mills of Norway which produce much of the European wood flour are of the stone type. Wood flour mills are scattered over the country from Maine to California wherever the proper combination of wood and water power is available,and the domestic wood flour competes with the Norwegian product which,before the war was delivered at Atlantic ports for $12.50 to $15 per ton.

The bees are just beginning to make honey in some localities, while in others it will be a week or two yet before the stands will begin to show product. The bee has a reputation for being a very busy insect, but as a matter of fact he is exceedingly choice about the conditions under which he works. He wants warmth and sunshine, and not too much wind, happy home conditions and a few other things. The size and success of the 1916 crop of honey depends upon whether or not conditions are right to make the bee a busy bee. Up to the present time the nights have been rather chilly, and that mill- Railroad and Transportation—Jas. S. Smart, Santa Ana, chairman; R. D. Richards, Seal Beach; W. T. Brown, Fullerton.

WOOD FLOUR USED IN DYNAMITE AND LINOLEUM More than twenty thousand tons of wood flour, valued at $300,000, are used annually in the United States in two widely different industries, the manufacture of dynamite and the manufacture of inlaid linoleum. Wood flour is also used in making composition flooring, oatmeal paper, and in several other industries. It forms one of the means by which the huge waste product of our lumber mills is beginning to find some better means of disposal than the burner. Since a total of 36,000,000 cords of such waste is produced each year at sawmills in the United States, of which about one-half goes into the furnaces as fuel while the rest is burned as refuse to get rid of it, there is no lack of raw material for industries which can develop ways of turning this waste to account. All wood flour-using industries require a white or very light cream-colored flour having good absorptive power. The wood species that may be used are confined to the light, non- To Iron a Centerpiece or other equally delicately made article of household use requires the very highest skill and the most exacting care.
