The Weekly Gazette. ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter HOW THE MONEY IS SPENT Subscribers to the recent Liberty bonds and intending subscribers to the second Liberty Loan are interested in knowing just how the money obtained is used. A large amount of money is necessary to maintain our navy, which has been called upon to defend our coast and our commerce from attack. To put the navy on a war basis, every ship in reserve had to be fully manned and commissioned. Many auxiliary vessels also had to be added. On April 6 there were 64,680 enlisted men; now there are more than 136,000. In addition, we have enlisted more than 35,000 reserves and there are 10,000 national naval volunteers in service. Contracts have been placed for every destroyer and submarine chaser that the shipyards of the country can build, and new records are expected in construction. All this is in addition to the 22,000 ton battleships; the five battle cruisers of 35,000 tons each, the largest and swiftest war vessels ever built; the six scout cruisers and many auxiliary craft for which we have made contracts. These will be built as early as possible, but the right of way in construction is being given to destroyers and small craft. Since the day war was declared the navy has patrolled our own coasts. RESIGNATION OF COUNTY CLERK WILLIAMS "The resignation of County Clerk Williams, news of which comes to us as we go to press, is a distinct loss to the ranks of the officials of this county. We are not surprised at Mr. Williams' action; in fact, we have rather looked for it for some time past. There are men in the Orange county court house, and Mr. Williams is one of them, who, were they in the employ of a private corporation, with interests equal to those of this county, would receive a salary of not less than ten thousand dollars a year. Mr. Williams' services to the county are worth much more than he receives as a salary, which is not at all commensurate to the services performed by him for the people. He takes a responsible position as cashier of the First National bank of Santa Ana, and is succeeded by Nels Edwards of Orange, a thoroughly competent and excellent citizen. While we regret Mr. Williams' retirement from the office of county clerk, we are pleased to note his appointment to a responsible position in Santa Ana's leading banking institution. He is the most capable man who ever held the office of county clerk, and his resignation will cause regret throughout all portions of the county." C. B. Buchanan, a garage owner of Fullerton, is at the Anaheim sanitary critically injured as the result of the collision of his auto with the side of a Southern Pacific train. Unable to stop his car in time, Buchanan jumped. The auto was caught by a car of the train and was dragged over Buchanan, who sustained concussion of the brain, a broken right shoulder, a compound fracture of the right forearm, a crushed chest and numerous bruises and cuts.

All this is in addition to the 32,000 ton battleships; the five battle cruisers of 35,000 tons each, the largest and swiftest war vessels ever built; the six scout cruisers and many auxiliary craft for which we have made contracts. These will be built as early as possible, but the right way in construction is being given to destroyers and small craft. Since the day war was declared the navy has patrolled our own coasts. For coast defenses scores of vessels have been secured—yachts, fishing vessels, fast motor boats and other minor craft, and others are being added to this force as rapidly as possible. The navy has sent to France a corps of aviators, who arrived on June 8, the first contingent of the regular armed forces of the United States to land on French soil. The aeronautic corps has been greatly enlarged, aviation bases established along the coast, and officers and men trained in the operation of seaplanes, dirigible balloons and other types of air craft. An additional appropriation of $45,000,000 has been asked for aviation. About $80,000,000 is involved in the entire building program in our navy yards, training stations, submarines and aviation bases, the big storage warehouses we are building for munitions and supplies, the new shops, foundations, shipways, the huge dry-docks, and the various structures under way or provided for. The Marine Corps has more than doubled in enlisted strength since the war began. On April 6 there were in the corps 426 commissioned officers and 13,266 enlisted men. It now has more than 28,000 enlisted men, only 1,479 recruits being required to bring it up to its full authorized enlisted strengta of 30,000. A force of marines has been landed in France for service under Gen. Pershing, and the entire corps is eager for action. DIVORCE CASES Out of 127 divorce cases filed or heard in Orange county, 106 cases were not contested. Of the 21 cases in which an answer or cross complaint was filed, but few were contested when it came to the day of trial. This is but one of a number of interesting statistics discoverable in an examination of records in Orange county. A state report shows that in the year 1916, there were 106 divorceFullerton, is at the Anaheim sanitarium critically injured as the result of the collision of his auto with the side of a Southern Pacific train. Unable to stop his car in time, Buchanan jumped. The auto was caught by a car of the train and was dragged over Buchanan, who sustained concussion of the brain, a broken right shoulder, a compound fracture of the right forearm, a crushed chest and numerous bruises and cuts. The accident happened on the Garden Grove road at the crossing of the Los Alamitos branch of the S. P. John Moore, an employee of the Union Oil company, who was with Buchanan, was not hurt. Mrs. J. H. Boege and Mrs. R. Jansen left Monday for a sojourn at San Juan. main ditch was very cold, and he enthusiastically rejoiced in the fact. He explained that it was colder than usual this season and referred eloquently to the snow clad mountains from which it came. He was an intelligent, well educated man, and the literature on his table suggested that he tried to keep pace with the scientific research along the lines of his work. He was not one of these book farmers so aptly described by Herbert Quick, as "back to the lander's who though they could read their way to successful agriculture," but a practical student who kept posted through the reports of modern research in his chosen line of endeavor. One part of the land was planted to apricots, as yet young, and as well he had an ample garden. He asked my aid to discover the cause of a trouble in the apricots. The leaves of the young trees were pale and shrivelled, and the growth and budding seemed to have been arrested. At his request an experiment station had sent investigators, and their verdict had been attacked by some form of insect or rust, I forget what. They recommended a spray which he used the year before, but he could not discover any valuable effect from it. It was true that the trees recovered the previous summer from a similar attack, but the improvement was so marked before the use of the spray that he felt obliged to condemn it. Another expert had visited him and pronounced the trouble alkali. We found sufficient evidence from soil borings, which he had made quite intelligently, and from his domestic well borings, to contradict the alkali theory. The union now tools operating on property and the bit of the old tin has been drilled feet. No. 41 is drilled at 2900. No. 2900 mark and drilling up. No. 49 and boulders at 1 also on the rotary first thousand feet. On the Hole lea Out of 127 divorce cases filed or heard in Orange county, 106 cases were not contested. Of the 21 cases in which an answer or cross complaint was filed, but few were contested when it came to the day of trial. This is but one of a number of interesting statistics discoverable in an examination of records in Orange county. A state report shows that in the year 1916, there were 106 divorce actions started in Orange county. In forty seven cases the husband was the plaintiff and in fifty nine cases it was the wife who brought the action. Desertion holds first place in popularity as a ground for divorce. In fifty four cases desertion was named as a ground for divorce. In nearly all of the fifty four cases it was the only ground named. Thirty complaints gave failure to provide as a ground for divorce; while twenty eight alleged cruelty. Adultery figured as the ground for divorce in four cases, while intemperance was cited as a ground in three cases, and the fact that a husband was convicted of a felony was the ground in one case. IRRIGATION AND THE IRRIGATOR While irrigation is perhaps as old as agriculture, there are more neglected facts than proven ones in its up-to-date application. Climatic conditions seldom receive serious and timely consideration by the irrigator, and he suffers in consequence. For instance, I can site a case which came under my observation. On a trip taken to make an examination on some land I had occasion to stop at a small ranch for water. The grower was irrigating his land and invited my inspection. I observed that the water coming in his year before, but he could not discover any valuable effect from it. It was true that the trees recovered the previous summer from a similar attack, but the improvement was so marked before the use of the spray that he felt obliged to condemn it. Another expert had visited him and pronounced the trouble alkali. We found sufficient evidence from soil borings, which he had made quite intelligently, and from his domestic well borings, to contradict the alkali theory. The irrigation he was applying was the second of the season, the first one having been made about six weeks earlier. A study of his records showed that the leaf trouble in both seasons had shown itself about a week after the first irrigation. The cause of his trouble seemed very evident, very simple and quite in keeping with the conditions, viz: the application of too cold water to plants at the early spring budding stage. It was doubly proven by the fact that his young garden plants had been stunted or similarly affected, and seeds planted shortly before irrigation died in the soil after sprouting. His only sure and safe preventive was to build a reservoir in which the irrigation water could be warmed before application to the soil. Here was demonstrated and proven a fact or theory which is part of the irrigator's problem, for I have seen many orchards lost their fruit from similar cause. Whether the baneful effect of the too cold water is the result of direct physical action on the plant, or on the bacteria of the soil and so indirectly on the plants is hardly a matter for side treatment in an article of this kind. It is too big an issue for incidental discussion, the main fact to establish being that the application of cold water is dangerous at seasons of tender development of the plant.

The Union Oil nounced a new which will be as f OIL FIELD NOTES By ELLWOOD J. MUNGER The Standard Oil company now has only one well drilling in the Brea oil field, Coyote 2-9. This well has been about as difficult as any the company has had to contend with and has been in operation now for the past year and a half with varied success. The hole is now 3155 feet deep and a test is being made to ascertain the results of a recent cementing. Water has been a very serious menace in the endeavor of the company to make the well a success. At Dominguez the Standard is studying conditions on its well at a depth of 3875 feet and find nothing that would add any encouragement for further operations. At this depth the formation is a hard gray sand with no signs of oil. The Standard's Baldwin No. 2 completed last week is holding up well on the initial production of 600 bbls a day. Baldwin No. 3 is down now 2800 feet. No. 4 is standing cemented. At No. 5 the cement has been drilled out and a test for water is being made. Baldwin No. 6 is down 2110 and the 12½ casing is going in. At No. 7 a new rig has been completed. A grade has been made for No. h. On the Temple property the Standard have No. 2 testing for water at 1655. A new rig for No. 3 has been almost completed. On the Murphy lease near Whittier the Standard is putting in 6¼ casing at No. 47. No. 48 is down 2118 with the 10 inch casing landed. No. 49 is down 1714 feet and the 10 inch casing is being put on the ground for the well. No. 50 is standing cemented at 1830. No. 51 is drilling at 1430. No. 52 started a few days ago and is now at 660 feet. At No. 53 a cellar is be per day; tool dressers, $4.50; helpers, $4.00; pumpers, $3.50; and all roustabout labor is to be rated at $3.50 per day. The Amalgamated Oil company is meeting with good success with operations at Brea. On the Hualde property well No. 2 is drilling at 2900 feet. At Anaheim No. 56 the rotary is making rapid headway, the depth now being 1300 feet. This 1300 feet represents a week's work with the rotary. The Brea Canyon Oil company drilling on No. 14, report the tools operating at 2350. This well is showing up exceedingly well and looks like a big producer for the Brea Canyon Company. No. 29 is cleaning out at 2450. A grade has been made for No. 30. Preparations are being made for the moving of No. 31 to a new location where drilling will commence again. The move was necessitated on account of difficulties encountered in the old location. The Copa De Oro company's wildcat well in Chino canyon is still being tested out and is making water only. The well has been on the beam for the past two months and the hope that the water could be pumped off and a showing of oil made. The only thing that keeps the hope of the owners from dwindling lies in the fact that the gas pressure developed soon after the well was put on the beam, continues quite strong. The Fullerton Oil company operating in the Brea field have two wells drilling. No. 10 has reached a depth of 3457 feet and is going good. No. 11 is down 3142 and making nice headway. The Olinda Land company is continuing the drilling of well No. 12 and are down some 3000 feet. Contrary to expectations this well is not showing County good roads . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Director Dwyer reported that he and the superintendent had interviewed Mr.C.G.Sparks relative to the pipe line which passes through his property and that arrangements satisfactory to all concerned would probably be made in the near future. Motion of McFadden seconded by Miller the pumping plant committee and superintendent were given power to act in repairing pumping plant No.3. On motion duly seconded the president was authorized to appoint a committee of three to deal with the cemetery committee to arrange for a reduction in the company's right of way through the cemetery. The president appointed Directors Dwyer, Beazley and McFadden. Motion was duly made and seconded that the president and secretary draw a warrant in favor of Francis Cuttle On the Murphy lease near Whittier the Standard is putting in 6½ casing at No. 47. No. 48 is down 2118 with the 10 inch casing landed. No. 49 is down 1714 feet and the 10 inch casing is being put on the ground for the well. No. 50 is standing cemented at 1830. No. 51 is drilling at 1430. No. 52 started a few days ago and is now at 660 feet. At No. 53 a cellar is being dug. No. 54 lumber is being put on the ground for a rig. Rig material is also being placed on the ground for No. 55. Grading work is underway for Nos. 56 and 57. At Murphy No. 23 operations have been held up temporarily on account of a fishing job. No. 27 completed a couple of weeks ago, continues to make a production of close to 5000 bbls a day. No. 29 is drilling in sandy shale at 3570. No. 39 is being tested out at a depth of 3376. No. 31 is drilling at 3750. No. 33 is drilling at 3210. No. 34 is held back with a fishing job. No. 35 stands cemented at 3040 in the 10 inch. Agrade has been made for No. 36, and locations for Nos. 37 and 38 have been made. On the Bastanchury lease the Union Oil company has No. 5 down 4450. The formation is oil sand and a grade good enough to warrant a well. Bastanchury No. 5 is drilling at 2160 and running smoothly. At Long Beach on the Bixby well the Union is contipuring drilling and are now down at the 2960 mark with nothing in sight that resembles oil. The condition of the hole is good and the drilling to a great depth can be carried on. At Placentia on the Chapman ranch well the Union's test well has passed the 1000 foot mark with drilling going a little slow on account of the long stretch of hard conglomerate formation that still continues. The Union now has six strings of tools operating on the Graham Loftus property and the lease has taken on a bit of the old time activity. No. 40 has been drilled to a depth of 3450 feet. No. 41 is drilling in the blue shale at 2900. No. 42 has passed the 2900 mark and drilling. No. 43 is rigging up. No. 49 is rotating in shale and boulders at 1300 feet. No. 51 is also on the rotary and has made the first thousand feet. On the Hole lease the Union has strong. The Fullerton Oil company operating in the Brea field have two wells drilling. No. 10 has reached a depth of 3457 feet and is going good. No. 11 is down 3142 and making nice headway. The Olinda Land company is continuing the drilling of well No. 12 and are down some 3000 feet. Contrary to expectations this well is not showing up very encouragingly. However, drilling will continue. The Olinda Co. has purchased a caterpillar engine and expects to put a large acreage of its land under cultivation this coming season. If drilling continues a few days longer without the appearance of a gusher, the Tri State Oil company will have its well at La Habra a mile deep. The well now stands 5162, and the showing is very encouraging for further development. Miss Margaret Scott, Red Cross nurse of the Pacific Division, will speak to the members and all persons interested in the Red Cross, at 1:30 sharp, Friday afternoon at the Red Cross headquarters, Anaheim Union Water Co.'s building, corner North Philadelphia and Center streets. SUPERVISORS REDUCE YEAR'S TAX RATE A Drop of Twenty-Five Cents in the County Wednesday morning the board of supervisors fixed the tax rate for the year 1917-18. Taken as a whole, the rates over the county are materially reduced. Twenty-five cents is chopped off of the county tax rate, and in making that reduction the board of supervisors has made the most substantial reduction noted in a comparison of figures. The biggest cut in rate is that from Fullerton city, where oil well assessments have shot that city's assessment to the highest of the incorporated cities. Four cities have their taxes collected through the county. The others do their own collecting. That the county board intended to make the reduction was announced two weeks ago Wednesday the action became official. Instead of $1.95 per $100 valuation outside, incorporated On motion duly seconded the president was authorized to appoint a committee of three to deal with the cemetery committee to arrange for a reduction in the company's right of way through the cemetery. The president appointed Directors Dwyer, Beazley and McFadden. Motion was duly made and seconded that the president and secretary draw a warrant in favor of Francis Cuttle for $500 being part payment of the Trash remover recently installed for the company by Mr. Cuttle. On motion duly seconded the secretary was instructed to advertise for bids for the farming privileges on the La Habra reservoir site for the year ending November 1, 1918. On motion duly seconded the following transfers of stock were granted: 3 shares from Johanna Strodtthoff, mortgagee, to Wm.P.Meyers, mortgagee; 1 from Henry Hildebrandt to Augusta Zumkeller and 11 from J.A.McLean to Manilla Brouillette. METHODS AND MAKESHIFTS Some practical growers favor deep furrow irrigation, some advocate shallow furrows. Others stick to the time worn basin system, and now we have a few isolated advocates of spraying under a water pressure of 35 to 50 pounds. Why this diversion of opinion and method? The answer is found in a physical study of the soil formation and contour and the water service, and with a knowledge of the physiological idiosyncrasies of the plants. Without doubt all the methods are good in their place. There are other troubles that follow irrigation, some of which are most serious. The most prolific cause of gum disease in citrus trees is directly traceable to water, and occurs more generally where irrigation is practiced. The correction of this evil is usually drainage, but if it has become too deep seated liming must also be resorted to, both in the soil and on the tree trunk. SEAL BEACH Next Sunday, Admission Day, will mark the culmination of the most successful season Seal Beach has ever enjoyed, exceeding the most sanguine expectations. A monster display of fireworks and other special features will be on the tools operating on the Graham Loftus property and the lease has taken on a bit of the old time activity. No. 40 has been drilled to a depth of 3450 feet. No. 41 is drilling in the blue shale at 2900. No. 42 has passed the 2900 mark and drilling. No. 43 is rigging up. No. 49 is rotating in shale and boulders at 1300 feet. No. 51 is also on the rotary and has made the first thousand feet. On the Hole lease the Union has No. 8 drilling at better than 3600 feet. Nos: 15, 16 and 17 are standing cemented. Hole No. 18 is now approach the 3600 mark and is giving promise of being one of the best wells in the district when completed. At La Merced in the Montebello field the Union Oil company have two wells drilling. No. 1 was cemented two weeks ago at 2200 and drilling out the cement will take place in a few days. At No. 2 the rotary is making fine progress the depth this week being 2100 feet. A third well has been located on the property and known as No. 3. At Meyer near Whittier the Union has drilled its test well to a depth of 3300 feet and have cemented the 8½ casing at a depth of 3300. The well continues to stand in doubt and no great results are being hoped for. If oil is found it will be a deep product. The Union is drilling four wells on the Naranjal lease and at No. 6 the tools are operating at 1800 feet. At No. 10 drilling is going on at 1800. At No. 11 pipe trouble is delaying the work somewhat. Two new locations have been made and drilling will commence on these wells in the near future. The Union Oil company has announced a new schedule of wages which will be as follows: Drillers $7 figures. The biggest cut in rate is that from Fullerton city, where oil well assessments have shot that city's assessment to the highest of the incorporated cities. Four cities have their taxes collected through the county. The others do their own collecting. That the county board intended to make the reduction was announced two weeks ago. Wednesday the action became official. Instead of $1.95 per $100 valuation outside incorporated cities, the new rate is $1.70. Among the special districts, Newbert protection district has a cut of 90 cents and Newport Drainage drops from $4.10 to $2. Delhi get a lift. Taking the count yas a whole, County Auditor Jerome states that the school district rates are decidedly lower. Here and there is a district that has a higher rate. Among them is Santa Ana, which has 10 cents added to the high school special rate. The Santa Ana grammar school and the kindergarten special rates remain the same as last year, 30 cents and 10 cents. The taxpayer in Santa Ana will have a raise of 4 cents in his total tax rate. While the county has reduced its rate 25 cents, the city has raised its rate 20 cents and the school rate will be 14 cents higher than last year, there being a raise of 4 cents for the school bond fund Tax Rates 1917 1916 County general .336 .425 Bridge .06 .07 Salary .12 .16 Hospital .09 .085 Interest and sinking .20 .28 Advertising .005 .015 County school .23 .25 County high school .21 .24 County park .005 .00 The law effecting the wage of women is now in force. No woman may now be employed in any mercantile industry in California at a wage of less than $1 a week, or on beginning or apprentice at less than $6 a week.
