SANTA ANA AFTER MORE INDUSTRIES Spending $30,000 in Rehabilitating A Cannery Santa Ana has awakened to the fact that one of the needs of this region is more manufacturing industries. It is figuring on a million dollar cotton mill, and is also spending $30,000 on a cannery. Speaking of this the Register says: With a period of employment near at hand for hundreds of women and girls who now are not earning money, the general prosperity here will be increased materially when the new wage earners receive their money and turn it loose in commercial channels. The employment will vary from six weeks to five months. The short period will be during the apricot season and the long season for operation of the two canneries. The California Packers' Corporation, which is rehabilitating the cannery on East First street, will spend $30,000 in equipping the plant for its first season's run on Refugee beans, chill peppers and pimientos. Several carloads of machinery have arrived in the past few weeks, more are to come in and work of installing is being rushed so as to have the plant ready for operation by the time Refugee beans and chillis are ready for canning, which will be about July 15. Applications for positions in the cannery are now being received by E. J. Kitterman, manager of the big plant. If the beans and chillis ripen at the same time, as now seems possible, the cannery will start work with 200 women and girls employed. That the cannery will have no trouble in getting help is evidenced by the fact that applications of about 100 women rate of $2,000,000,000 every three months, so that if all our people should invest in the Liberty Bonds, their entire net increment, or excess of income over actual living expenses for a three months period, and avoid other investments, this alone would practically absorb the entire issue of bonds now being offered. BRIDE-TO-BE GETS SURPRISE OF HER LIFE Unexpectedly Entertained by a Number of Friends From Two Cities Miss Katynel Hinds of Orange, who is to be a June bride, was a much surprised young lady one evening last week when a sudden decision to take a little ride to this city ended with her being taken by storm by a merry group of friends who had invaded the home of Miss Augusta Lensing, this arch conspirator being assisted by her mother, Mrs. Ben Lensing, in making the affair a rousing success. Convoyed to the trysting place by another ringleader, Andrew Rickey, the bride-to-be accompanied by her mother and sister "dropped in" at the Lensing home and as she entered the darkened living room, the first she knew of the conspiracy was a tremendous pillow "soaking." After the victim had admitted that the surprise was the genuine article, she was led to a beautiful mass of white and gold daisies and in the heart of the bouquet she found streamers which led to a shower of lovely gifts. The unwinding of the streamers, which led in and out through all kinds of puzzling trails, took lots of time and ingenuity, but the honoree felt abundantly rewarded when she gathered in her treasures. The daisies which told the pretty secret were arranged in snowy masses P. E.

Rea ing in show that fou Applications for positions in the cannery are now being received by E. J. Kitterman, manager of the big plant. If the beans and chilis ripen at the same time, as now seems possible, the cannery will start work with 200 women and girls employed. That the cannery will have no trouble in getting help is evidenced by the fact that applications of about 100 women and girls are already on file, leaving only 100 more to be secured to insure a full force. The cannery will operate for at least five months, the period of its running depending entirely on frosts. It will start on beans and chilis and when these are out of the way pimentos will come on. Canning will continue until frost ruins the vegetables. Judging from past seasons Manager Kitterman expects the plant to continue canning until the latter part of December and possibly until the first of January. "We will have steady employment for 200 women and girls from about the middle of July until the latter part of December," said Kitterman, in discussing the opening of the cannery. "We will have the best of sanitary arrangements and the comfort of our employees has been one of our first considerations. It will not be difficult for the more adept to make from $2.25 to $2.50 per day of eight hours, the work is light but tedious. The products we handle are not perishable, and we will make every effort to limit the working day to eight hours. This can be controlled by regulation of the picking forces in the field. "Under the law the average wage of 80 per cent of our help must be 16 cents an hour, and this average can be maintained with ease in this class of work and with the proper energy on the part of the help. The work will appeal to the women in many ways. They will not be shifting from one class of work to another, and after a few weeks' employment handling the vegetables quickly and efficiently will become second nature to them." MONEY NOT TIED UP There seems to be an idea held by some that money invested in a Liberty Loan bond is going to be tied up for fifteen or thirty years. This belief is not warranted. Probably no property was the genuine article, she was led to a beautiful mass of white and gold daisies and in the heart of the bouquet she found streamers which led to a shower of lovely gifts. The unwinding of the streamers, which led in and out through all kinds of puzzling trails, took lots of time and ingenuity, but the honoree felt abundantly rewarded when she gathered in her treasures. The daisies which told the pretty secret were arranged in snowy masses throughout the rooms, and later, the white and gold tints were reproduced in the delicious refreshments, daintly served on trays. Among the friends present were Mr. and Mrs. Dan Naugle, Mrs. F. Harris, Mrs. E. H. Heying, Mrs. Ben Lensing, the Misses Odo Scholten, Celia Stroka, Bertha Knott, Ollo Elmers, Louise Dahn, Augusta, Viola and Blanche Lensing; Messrs. Elmer Berdrow and Armine Lensing of Anabelm; Mrs. W. W. Hinds, Mrs. Pearl Blackburn, Miss Adapearl Hinds and Andrew Rickey of Orange. ORANGE COUNTY PEOPLE EATING MORE CORN F. A. Blake of Olive Milling Company So Reports F. A. Blake, secretary and treasurer of the Olive Milling company, notes with interest the increased sales of cornmeal, since the government appealed to patriotic housewives to use less flour that the wheat may be used by United States armies in Europe and by the allies. Physicians advise the use of more rough food, and cornmeal mush, cornbread and corncakes work admirably. A free use of cornmeal and entire wheat, thinks Mr. Blake, would be the means of reducing doctor's bills considerably. Mr. Blake mentions with pleasure the total decline of $1.20 per barrel flour, two reductions of 60 cents each being made since May 26. "The market has been considerably shaken up recently, but I do not look for the bottom to drop out of prices for a time at least." Gold Buckle, an Olive Milling company brand of hard wheat, is selling for $14.60 per barrel. The incoming crop of wheat may lower prices some, is Mr. Blake's opinion. The milling of new wheat will begin within three months, and be ready for the market in October. JAPAN SPINS FOR Japanese domination Eastern markets for oil all but established.

This belief is not warranted. Probably no property in the world outside of actual money or currency will have a wider and more ready and constant cash market than the Liberty Loan bond. There will be a constant demand made for them from many sources. They are good security for loans from the Federal reserve banks; courts have decided that they are legal and proper investments for trust funds; they are legal investments for insurance companies and other corporations whose investments are supervised and regulated by law; their international character (being issued for an international purpose and guaranteed in part by our European allies) gives them an international status and market. They will be sought for in India, in Egypt, Japan and Russia, England and France, Italy and Australia and in fact wherever any government bond has a market. They have been truly called the premier security of the world. Never has the nation been in better condition to take up a big issue of bonds. A statement issued by John Skelton Williams, comptroller of the Currency, shows that the combined resources of our banks exceed $16,000,000,000, increased by the enormous sum of $8,000,000,000 in less than three years. "It is believed," says Williams "that the investible earnings, or profits, of the citizens of the United States are now increasing at the being made since May 26." The market has been considerably shaken up recently, but I do not look for the bottom to drop out of prices for a time at least." Gold Buckle, an Olive Milling company brand of hard wheat, is selling for $14.60 per barrel. The incoming crop of wheat may lower prices some, is Mr. Blake's opinion. The milling of new wheat will begin within three months, and be ready for the market in October. Dr. M. M. Henderson, Dentist, Suite 1, Mullinix Bldg., Anaheim.

It is far richer than the ordinary article and the extreme care with which it is handled from cow to bottle will give added satisfaction in the knowledge of its absolute cleanliness. Anaheim Sanitary Dairy Anaheim Ice Company Building on Chartress Street P. E. WILL BUILD TO TUSTIN Pacific Electric officials looking over the situation admitted that the P. E. is going to extend its line to Tustin, and the San Joaquin Fruit ranch, but they refused to say when or by what route the new road would be built. They said it would probably be at least 90 days before the extension would be a reality. At a conference with E. D. Burge, who is building a packing house on his ranch with the expectation that the P. E. would run a track there for the loading of cars, the P. E. men failed to make a definite promise as to the new road, but assured him that the line would eventually be built, and promised to confer with him again within the next two weeks. In consequence if the delay in building the extension, Mr. Burge will have to haul his packed fruit this year to the railroad station on trucks. The Tustin committee, of which C. E. Utt, Sherman Stevens and James S. Rice are members, has considered several routes for the road to Tustin, but has met with considerable opposition from property owners over whose property it was proposed to run the line. Mr. Utt states the railroad preferred a route south of Tustin, probably along Sixth street or a few hundred yards south of that street. Some of the right of way for a line has been granted, it is reported, but opposition from others will likely make condemnation proceedings necessary to secure the complete route over private property for the line to Tustin. JAPAN SPINS FOR FAR EAST Japanese domination of the Far Eastern markets for cotton goods is all but established. Reports just coming in show that for the first 11 fully into the character of representations they make and the quality of the landscape which they offer for farming. With this cleansing of the real estate business and with the setting up of a reasonable state policy as a standard for subdivisioning which private land handlers must unavoidably emulate, it cannot well be doubted that the outlook for fair and profitable investment in California farming lands is greatly improved. Although it may be possible neither for law nor public policy to part a fool investor from his folly, it is possible that by years of upright dealing we may outlive our present ill repute as a state which cuts bait for suckers, and gain a good name as a state in which good men are placed on good land with a chance of making good by good work and farming wisdom. And, of course, when California comes this summer, as the law provides, to give the world a voucher for the integrity of her real estaters, their business will expand and rise to a new level. To a world steeped in distrust of land dealings ever since Dido spun her web of thongs around all the corner lots in Carthage, there will be great relief in the assurance that buying real estate in California can no longer be a skin game! And there will be freer investment accordingly. CUT SPRAYING COST Buying in quantities and the use of substitutes offer ways of reducing the cost of spraying materials, which has increased markedly since last year. Entomologists in the United States department of agriculture, fearing that high prices of insecticides may operate against a more general utilization of them in the protection of crops this season, offer suggestions for cutting the cost. Sodium arsenate (fused, dry powdered 65% arsenic oxide, lbs...10 Water, gallons ...2½ Place the lime in a suitable container, then dissolve the sodium arsenate in a little boiling water and pour this solution over the lime to start it slacking. When slacking is well under way stir thoroughly and add water as required until a total of 2½ gallons has been used. This will make about 35 pounds of arsenate of lime paste containing 18 tl 20 per cent of arsenic oxide, approximately the amount of arsenic in arsenate of lead paste. With nominal prices for the materials this will cost 3 to 4 cents a pound. Arsenate of lime can be used on apples, pears, grapes and certain hardy vegetables, but should not be applied to plants with delicate foliage, such as the stone fruits, as injury is likely to result. Use at the rate of 2 pounds to 50 gallons of spray. Arsenate of lime can be used in Bordeaux mixture and in dilute lime sulphur spray, just as is arsenate of lead. When used in water the milk of lime made from slacking 3 or 4 pounds of stone lime should be added to each 50 gallons of water. NO CHOICE OF YOUR BRANCH OF SERVICE Since millions of young men registered on June 5, many inquiries are coming in to the military authorities, requesting information as to whether the men drafted from these registration lists may choose any branch of service. In an interview, Captain Thomas F. Cooke states that men drafted will not have any choice, but must go into whatever branch of service they are sent. Capt. Cooke points out that before the draft it will be possible for anyone including those who have regained it through their opportunity vision.

Reports just coming in show that for the first 11 months of 1916, the value of Japanese cotton goods exported was 72 million dollars, an increase of 40 per cent over last year. The total production of cotton yarn in 1916 was 1,900,000 bales, of which 549,000 bales were exported, compared with a production of 1,700,000 bales the year before, if which 576,000 bales were exported, the decrease in exportation of 27,000 bales being due to the larger quantity being used at home. During the first six months of 1916 Japan imported 641,454 pounds of raw cotton, a very large increase over the preceding year and a matter which should meet with the approval of those Southern cotton congressmen who still cling to the faith of the Forties, that the South should sell her cotton abroad, and buy cotton goods made up in foreign mills and admitted to the United States free of duty, no matter if our domestic cotton manufacturers have to go out of business. Billy Kennedy of Stanton was in town a few days ago on a business visit. Billy's health has not been of the best of late, and he came in to consult his physician. He was threatened with an attack of pneumonia, but is now on the way to recovery. THE APOTHEOSIS OF THE REAL ESTATER The state has spread a blue sky over legitimate and honorable private land dealing in California. This has been secured through the last legislature and Governor Stephens. This is the way of it: The new law provides that no real estate broken or salesman may do business and collect commissions for his services in California unless he holds a state license, which must be issued by an appointed commissioner. Each broker and salesman must make application to the commissioner for a license, beginning July 27. The commissioner shall investigate applicant's interest in quantities and the use of substitutes offer ways of reducing the cost of spraying materials, which has increased markedly since last year. Entomologists in the United States department of agriculture, fearing that high prices of insecticides may operate against a more general utilization of them in the protection of crops this season, offer suggestions for cutting the cost. An important saving usually can be effected in the consolidation of orders for insecticides from a neighborhood or their purchase through fruit growers' associations, or other cooperative buying organizations. The importance of this saving is realized when it is remembered that the difference in cost of certain insecticides, as arsenate of lead, in small packages at retail stores, over its cost in larger quantities from manufacturers or jobbers, often is 100 per cent. Letters from orchardists and others to the department of agriculture indicate the intention of some to use cheaper arsenicals—though perhaps with less safety on some foliage—such as arsenate of lime. In view of this interest it is desirable, say the entomologists, to call to the attention of orchardists wishing to employ cheaper arsenicals the arsenate of lime, which can readily be made up at home as follows: Fresh stone lime (90% calcium oxide) pounds... 5½ CUT SPRAYING COST Buying in quantities and the use of substitutes offer ways of reducing the cost of spraying materials, which has increased markedly since last year.

Cooke states that men drafted will not have any choice, but must go into whatever branch of service they are sent. Capt. Cooke points out that before the draft it will be possible for anyone, including those who have registered, to select the service they desire, and particular attention is called to the Quartermaster Enlisted Reserve Corps. Anyone who has enlisted in this corps is not subject to draft, and inasmuch as Congress has materially raised the pay of the men in the Quartermaster Department the service is considered specially attractive. The minimum pay is $33 cash per month, besides allowances, consisting of rations, clothing, quarters, bedding, fuel, transportation, medicine and medical attendance. The pay of men rated as corporals, cooks and sergeants is still higher, being $36,$38,and $44 with the same allowances. In recruiting this corps to war strength, there is still great demand for cooks, bakers, teamsters, saddlers, wagon blacksmiths, horseshoers and farriers. The six motor truck companies originally allotted to Los Angeles have been fully recruited, as well as an extra company authorized later.

CITRUS AND SEMI TROPICAL FRUITS Initial shipments of new crop figs received in the San Francisco wholesale market from Indio, Cal., sold at 40 cents a pound. A large olive packing plant will be built in Lindsay this summer. Besides the processing of olives the plant will be equipped to turn out oil. The Glendora Citrus Association closed the season last week for Washington navels with the shipment of 822 cars, or 328,538 packed boxes, bringing growers about $445,000. Professor L. B. Scott, pomologist in charge of the subtropical fruit investigations of the department of agriculture, says that there are 140 varieties of avocado grown in Orange Pomona reached high mark for the shipping season last week when it sold 222 cars of navels in the Eastern markets in four days for $187,000, an average of $850 per car. The orange growers in the exchange, which is composed of seven associations in Pomona, Lordsburg, Claremont and Walnut, have received $2,356,502 already this season, and it is expected that at least $1,000,000 more will be received from the sale of late navels and Valencias. WETTING SPOILS EGGS Approximately 5,016,000 dozen eggs spoil needlessly every year in cold storage simply because some one has let clean eggs get wet or has washed dirty eggs before sending them to market, according to the United States department of agriculture. Careful investigations of large quantities of stored eggs show that from 17 to 22 per cent of washed eggs become worthless in storage, whereas only 4 to 8 per cent of dirty eggs stored unwashed spoil. The explanation is simple. Water removes from the shell of the egg a gelatinous covering which helps to keep air and germs out of the inside of the egg. Once this covering is removed by washing or rain which gets to eggs in the nest, germs and moulds find ready access to the contents and spoil the eggs. This enormous loss in storage eggs largely can be prevented if producers and egg handlers, especially during March, April and May will refrain from washing eggs destined for the storage markets and take pains to reduce the number of dirty eggs by providing planty of clean, sheltered nests for their hens. Millions of eggs spoil in storage because they have been exposed to dew, rain, dirt, and sun in stolen nests in NEW GRAND FRIDAY & SAT.
