QUARTERLY AP-PORTIONMENT OF SCHOOL FUNDS FINAL FUND TO BE RECEIVED THIS YEAR FOR MAIN-TENANCE SCHOOL TRUSTEES MUST SEE THAT THIS AMOUNT LASTS TILL JULY 1st County School Superintendent R. P. Mitchell has made the fourth quarterly apportionment of school funds for the year that will end on June 30, 1916. This is the last money that the school districts will receive this year, and school trustees must see to it that it lasts in their districts until July 1. During the year school districts have received $500 per teacher and an additional allowance of $16.50 per pupil. In this apportionment there is $101,991.05 set apart for the five high school districts of the county. That sum comes from special taxes and is divided as follows: Anaheim, $14,511.66; Fullerton Union, $26,224.83; Huntington Beach Union, $14,658.96; Orange Union, $14,503.96; Santa Ana, $32,091.66. The distribution for kindergartens reaches a total of $4,532.02. But four districts of the county have kindergartens. The districts that have them and the apportionment made to their kindergarten funds: Anaheim, $465.22; Fullerton, $294.14; Orange, $1,003.25; Santa Ana, $2,773.41. The apportionment to the common school districts are of two kinds one handled, Howard might have been killed. McPhee took the jitney driver's name and number in case serious results might follow the accident, and later a representative of the bonding company with which Rudolph is insured, made an exhaustive investigation of the matter. There were two passengers in the jitney and, although the car in being awerved from the road by the driver's endeavor to avoid striking Howard, crashed head-on against a telephone pole and was more or less damaged, none of the occupants were hurt, although both of them apparently were badly frightened. FARMING AS A BUSINESS The principles which underlie profitable farming are not unlike those which underlie the profitable conduct of any other business. The difference is merely in the application. The one fundamental principle underlying all successful business undertakings is that the cost must be less than the selling price. In the operation of this principle agriculture is no exception. Farming, however, is such a complex business, and the different enterprises making up the farm unit as so intricately related, that it is often well night impossible to determine the true cost or the true selling price of a farm product. However, the relation of any factor in farming to the profits of the farm as a whole, by the study of a large group of farms, can be fairly accurately determined. This relation of the individual enterprise to the profits of the whole is perhaps the best guide to successful farming and to an understanding of the principles upon which good farm organization is based. WHAT DR. WILEY SAYS OF THE Huntington Beach Union, $14,658.96; Orange Union, $14,503.96; Santa Ana, $32,091.66. The distribution for kindergartens reaches a total of $4,532.02. But four districts of the county have kindergartens. The districts that have them and the apportionment made to their kindergarten funds: Anaheim, $465.22; Fullerton, $294.14; Orange, $1,003.25; Santa Ana, $2,773.41. The apportionment to the common school districts are of two kinds, one being money raised by the general county taxes and the other being money raised by special tax upon the district that receives the money set opposite it. The common school districts received money as follows: | County | Special | | :--- | :--- | | Alamitos | $368 | | Anaheim | 4,952 | 2,791.35 | | Bay City | 232 | 232.08 | | Bolsa | 456 | | Buena Park | 456 | 77.31 | | Centralla | 496 | | Commonwealth | 80 | | Cypress | 320 | | Delhi | 1,000 | | Diamond | 264 | | El Modena | 1,240 | 918.66 | | El Toro | 392 | 280.70 | | Fountain Valley | 544 | | Fullerton | 3,600 | 2,206.07 | | Garden Grove | 2,328 | 412.57 | | Harper | 360 | 390.94 | | Huntington Beach | 2,272 | 2,364.70 | | Katella | 520 | 95.73 | | Laguna | 224 | | La Habra | 936 | 1,177.46 | | Laurel | 408 | | Loara | 736 | | Lowel Joint | 208 | 124.26 | | Magnolia | 584 | 338.10 | | Newhope | 328 | | Newport | 208 | | Newport Beach | 728 | 1,052.04 | | Ocean View | 712 | | Olinda | 1,256 | | Olive | 448 | 106.08 | | Orange | 4,800 | 3,009.75 | | Orangethorpe | 496 | Paularino | 216 | Peralta | 120 | 115.32 | Placentia | 2,192 | 1,766.13 | Randolph | 1,512 | 1,400.36 | San Joaquin | 584 | San Juan | 696 | Santa Ana | 13,872 | 8,320.21 | Savanna | 240 | Serra | 88 | Springdale | 136 | Trabuca | 184 | Tustin | 1,800 | 2,082.44 WHAT DR. WILEY SAYS OF THE RIPE OLIVE That the ripe olive is a perfect substitute for food, is a statement that Dr. Harvey W.Wiley, formerly chief chemist of the United States and originator of the Pure Food Act, has written to the California Ripe Olive Day Committee. In discussing the value of the ripe olive, Dr. Wiley calls attention to the high percentage of pure olive oil that it contains, ranging from 40 to 60 per cent. He declares it by far the most important edible oils, and calls attention to the fact that it has been able to keep its place in popular favor against cheapest vegetable oils since the dawn of civilization because of the fact that it possesses certain peculiar and superior qualities. "The ripe olive," Dr. Wiley states, "containing as it does when ready for the market, from 40 to 60 per cent of pure olive oil, possesses great food value. The oil is in a state of natural emulsion, ready to be digested promptly, without the possibility of interfering with the digestion of any other food. Because of the large percentage of proteids and albumen, the olive is almost a perfect substitution for meal." The history of the olive industry in California is most interesting in its origin and development. Unlike any other branch of horticulture, the planting of the olive tree connects California with the time when America was engaged in bloody conflict to gain her independence, with the more remote period when Spain landed her first missionaries on the shores of California to convert the Indians residing here. There is no doubt but what these venerable priests planted orchards of various fruits of deciduous varieties, since tracts of old, abandoned orchards have been found in the Mission cities of California. The gardens and orchards which once furnished fruits and vegetables to these missionaries will be complete in ing 1915. They ported ready to off, seven deep one abandoned.

F. Rudolph of This City Averts Fatal Accident by Able Handling Of Car O. B. Howard, who lives near the intersection of Main street and Chapman avenue, Santa Ana was quite severely injured a few days ago when he was struck by a jitney stage driven by C. F. Rudolph of Anaheim, who drives stage No. 28374. The accident occurred about 150 yards east of Main street on Chapman avenue and was witnessed by City Trustee George McPhee, who took Mr. Howard in his car to the latter's home and later to the office of a physician at Orange, where it was found that Howard's collar bone was broken and his body more or less bruised. Howard's mishap was purely accidental and McPhee says the driver of the jitney can not be held responsible, for, had his car not been well to gain her independence, with the more remote period when Spain landed her first missionaries on the shores of California to convert the Indians residing here. There is no doubt but what these venerable priests planted orchards of various fruits of deciduous varieties, since tracts of old, abandoned orchards have been found in the Mission cities of California. The gardens and orchards which once furnished fruits and vegetables to these missionaries have disappeared, and only the olive trees remain. These tracts are still in vigorous health, and bid fair to continue to yield an abundance of fruit for centuries to come. It is an interesting fact that olives gathered from trees probably planted by Junipero Serra were used for demonstration purposes in connection with California ripe olive day which was held Tuesday. President Wilson, the members of his cabinet, and the chief officials in Washington, joined in celebrating California Ripe Olive day on May 16, by eating ripe olives gathered from olive trees propably planted by Junipero Serra over two centuries ago. Those who had charge of promoting olive day secured fruit from the olive trees that yet thrive around the old missions. The fruit was placed in attractive hampers and was presented to the officials in time to enable them to join with California in the observance of California ripe olive day.

There are twelve well reported ready to test for water shutoff, seven deepening or redrilling and one abandoned. A question of vital importance to all operators, but one which has fortunate need but little general attention, is the matter of distance at which wells are drilled from the boundary lines between properties. It is a generally recognized fact that operations conducted on a basis of business foresight and fair dealing require that neighboring operators should agree to drill all their line wells at a fixed distance away from the boundary. Any other plan is based on an effort to take undue advantage of the neighbor in obtaining oil under his land, and if carried to its logical conclusion results in a drilling war beneficial to no one and causing wasteful expenditure in drilling needless wells. A few flagrant cases of such action have recently come to the attention of the bureau which intends to henceforth carefully note this feature and if the abuse assumes large proportions, will take active steps in the matter to the end that operators may exercise greater care.

FORMER HOME OF MADAME MODJESKA SOLD New Owners to Establish One of the Finest Amusement Resorts in California Word reached this city yesterday that "Arden," home of the late Madame Modjeska, consisting of 1300 acres of magic mountain land, has been sold by the Modjeska Country club, composed mostly of Long Beach men, to Don H. Porter of Los Angeles. The price paid by Porter is slightly in excess of $100,000. Porter proposes to spend no less than $10,000 in further developing the ranch, which lies in the rough, upper portion of the Santiago canyon, and making of it what he declares will be the finest mountain resore in California. The deal for the ranch has just been completed, and Porter has rushed into the work of getting the place ready for a rush of summer visitors. He has a large crew of men at work cleaning up and developing the grounds. The place is already in a position to entertain 100 guests at a time, and within a short time its capacity will be almost without limit. Porter has had a wide experience in the development of mountain resorts. His son-in-law, Chas. S. Mann, has owned, controlled and developed several of the best known resorts in the Sierra Madre mountains. "I propose to provide every amusement that a resort of this kind should have," said Porter. "The swimming pool will be enlarged. I am going to build a dancing floor under the oaks. The tennis court and croquet grounds are already as much as could be asked."
