A well known business man said the other day that should he feel so inclined he could take the Anaheim board of trade and in less than six months could roll up a membership of at least three hundred. The fees, he would make say five dollars a year, or perhaps ten dollars per year, and with this as a nuclus he would start out and do something that would be a credit to the town. He would inaugurate enterprises along cooperative lines, and would take up one proposition at a time and see it through to a finish. For instance, a municipal ice plant would be a good enterprise to tackle first. There is room here for a cannery or perhaps two or three. Much fruit and vegetables annually go to waste here for the lack of the proper facilities to handle them, while the market price for the same runs low. A cannery would give employment to many people, thus creating a pay roll. The business man in town would see to it that these necessary enterprises were carried to a successful conclusion. The same idea would apply to other business ventures, making for the good of the town in many ways. The gentleman's ideas are good, and perhaps under the solicitation of the board of trade the gentleman's services could be enlisted and the new ventures brought to a happy realization. Eugene A. Frengel engaged as a reporter city papers, was in ago having come over where he had been brother. Mr. Frengel locate in this section which he pronounce state.
