GERMANY WILL LOSE POTASH MONOPOLY ALSACE AND LORRAINE MINES CONTAIN WORLD'S GREATEST SOURCE OF SUPPLY THE KÄISER'S GOVERNMENT HAS STRANGLED OUTPUT FOR BENEFIT OF THE GERMAN PRODUCER As long as Germany holds Alsace and Lorraine, she possesses a world monopoly on potash, that indispensable element for the agricultural development of every civilized country on earth. Whatever Germany may say, her real reasons for clinging to Alsace and Lorraine are neither political, ethical nor historical. Back of her iron determinations to hold the two French provinces lies precisely the same motives that prompted the crown prince to sacrifice 700,000 human lives at Verdun in an effort to establish a strangle hold on the great French iron and steel basin of Briey. The moment Alsace and Lorraine pass into French hands, Germany's monopoly on the potash deposits of the world will be broken for all time to come—a monopoly which she has wielded to date in the most arbitrary manner and which she has utilized to no small extent in furthering her ambitions for world domination. agricultural development of the entire world. This monopoly as a matter of fact has affected in the most serious degree a large number of other world industries besides that of agriculture. A total of 87 to 88 per cent of the world's potash goes into the making of fertilizers. The remainder is used in the producing of caustic potash, nitrate of chloride of potash, alumni cyanide, bromide and ioduret of potash. All industries employing these chemicals suffer likewise from the German world monopoly. It is only by the return of Alsace and Lorraine to France and the distribution thus of the two great potash beds of the world between two competing nations that this world's monopoly can be broken up. It existence explains Germany's willingness to restore Belgium but not to restore Alsace and Lorraine. OLD BOOK TELLS INTERESTING STORY Fullerton Postmaster Received $11.50 Per Quarter In 1888 In the removal of the Fullerton postoffice to its new quarters, the archives of the office were somewhat disturbed, and in the disturbance Postmaster Blackford dug up the first book the office ever had. This book tells an interesting story. Ed A. Beazley was the first postmaster and he is still living in Fullerton. Beazley's first purchase of stamps from the government amounted to $41.30. This was on May 22, 1888. The first quarter, three months, he sold $5.20 worth of stamps and his cancellation of stamps amounted to $11.50. His salary amounted to the equal of the cancellation. the big Sacramento and will consist of horrifying the finest species that can be obtained.

With the retail market formation of what he Every merchant should in view, first, last and "Advertising is so that it is seemingly hide where it begins ends." to sacrifice 700,000 human lives at Verdun in an effort to establish a strangle hold on the great French iron and steel basin of Briey. The moment Alsace and Lorraine pass into French hands, Germany's monopoly on the potash deposits of the world will be broken for all time to come—a monopoly which she has wielded to date in the most arbitrary manner and which she has utilized to no small extent in furthering her ambitions for world domination. The supreme importance of Germany's monopoly on potash, was first called to the attention of the United States some two years before the war, when a violent diplomatic dispute arose between the United States and Germany over the latter's control of the potash importations into America. Since the opening of the present war and the cutting off of the United States and all other countries from access to the German potash, the question has become one of world importance. The fact that Alsace and Lorraine contain potash deposits equal in every respect to those of Germany is a secret which the latter has carefully guarded. The fact that she controlled the output of these latter and fixed an arbitrary price which she dictated to the entire world, and to the detriment of the world's agriculture, is a German state secret even more carefully guarded. The full details are here made known for the first time. The Alsatian potash deposits were only discovered in 1904. They occupy about 200 square kilometers between Mulhouse, Reiningen, Cernay, Soultz, Raederaheim, Beguisheim and Sausheim at a depth of from 1500 to 3000 feet below the surface of the earth. As the deposits from the very first gave indication of rivaling the famous German potash beds of Saxony, Hanover and the basin along the right bank of the Rhine, the development of the Alsatian beds was only allowed to proceed slowly and cautiously. From the time of their discovery in 1904 up to 1908 only about 120 soundings were made. Up till 1913 a total of 169 soundings had been made. These however, established definitely that the Alsatian deposits equal if not exceed both in size and purity those of Germany. At the current price of potash in 1909, these deposits represented a total value of over $12,000,000,000. Germany saw to it that the devel- This book tells an interesting story. Ed A. Beazley was the first postmaster and he is still living in Fullerton. Beazley's first purchase of stamps from the government amounted to $41.30. This was on May 22, 1888. The first quarter, three months, he sold $5.20 worth of stamps and his cancellation of stamps amounted to $11.50. His salary amounted to the equal of the cancellation. Bonding companies were not as many in those days as they are today and he had individual bondsmen. P. A. Schumacher and W. M. FcFadden were his sureties. Neither were notaries public and justices of the peace running around loose, so the postmaster was obliged to go over to Anaheim and swear to his report before E. V. Fox, justice of the peace. On the 30th day of August, 1890, Beazley wished the office on to William Starbuck, who was then in the drug business. Starbuck worried along with it until 1894, when he was succeeded by Nancy M. Gregg on September 1. On September 1, 1905, the political trend carried it to Vivian Tressler, who held it for only two years, when L. C. Edwards was appointed, and Edwards held it for nearly nine years, being succeeded by Postmaster Blackford on March 15, 1916. Today Fullerton has one of the most important postoffices in the county, doing a business of over $14,000 a year, employing a number of men in the office, on rural routes and in the city delivery service. It also has one of the best equipped offices in Southern California. SUSPICIOUS CHARACTER Alfred-Schneidler, who has been making his camp under the Santa Fe bridge west of Orange for the past 24 days, was arrested on a charge of vagrancy Thursday by Sheriff Jackson. Schneidler, who asserted that although born in Germany he was French, had $63.50 in gold pieces and silver concealed in his clothing and a six-inch dirk. He stated that he could speak French better than English and Pete Regis of the French laundry was brought into court as interpreter for Schneidler. Regis stated that man spoke very poor French, and when he was asked to write what he wanted to say, his letters resembled German script more than French or English.

Advert new methods and new existence every day. From the time of their discovery in 1904 up to 1908 only about 120 soundings were made. Up till 1913 a total of 160 soundings had been made. These however, established definitely that the Alsatian deposits equal if not exceed both in size and purity those of Germany. At the current price of potash in 1909, these deposits represented a total value of over $12,000,000,000. Germany saw to it that the development of these new beds was restrained in such a manner as not to affect the price of the potash drawn from her own deposits. A total of 166 concessions were made for the exploitation of the Alsatian beds. Twenty eight of these are in the hands of a Mulhouse company backed by French and Alsatian capital. The other seventy eight are now in the hands of a German concern, although a small portion of the capital stock of this is also owned by French and Alsatian capitalists. The exploitation of these concessions and the output of potash, however, was at all times kept at a minimum. As a consequence, while the output from the old German beds in 1913 was 1,300,000 tons that of the Alsatian beds was only 22,000 tons. Yet competent engineers have established that the Alsatian beds could easily equal in output the German mines. In order to leave no possibility for the development of the Alsatian beds to affect the price of potash by a sudden and immense increase in the world supply, Germany forced all of the people owning potash concessions to enter into a synicate. A central commission then received all of the demands and orders for potash, distributed them amongst the various producers, and fixed a common price, thus preventing all competition and thus exercising a strangle hold on the A Hoover Dinner A Hooverized dinner will take the place of the usual banquet at the 50th Fruit Growers convention at Sacramento Nov. 21 to 23. A banquet had been planned for but, at the request of G. H. Hecke, state commissioner of horticulture, it was changed to a spread more in keeping with the times. A wheatless and meatless dinner will be served. Fish and fowl will take the place of the meat courses and rice rolls and barley bread will be substituted for wheat bread. The cake to be served with the desert will be made of oatmeal and will have no icing, thus making a saving of sugar. From soup to nuts, fruit will have a prominent place in the dinner. The punch, the salad and the desert will feature different sorts of fruits to the saving of non-perishable articles. The table decorations will be furnished by Modern publicity: the credit for the new life in commerce vertising is the parentern method. Advertise new methods and new existence every day.

ADVOCATES ADVERTISING In an address before the members of the manufacturers' committee of the Oakland chamber of commerce, at a joint meeting with the home industry league of California, held on Wednesday, Charles R. Thorburn, secretary of the League, said in part: "At no time has our plea for the purchase and use of California made goods been so generally accepted as a reasonable, just and economic measure as now. With our country at war and all cars possibly available needed for the transport of food and ammunition to our soldiers and our allies, it becomes a necessity, as well as a duty, that each citizen of California be informed what is made in California and what it not, to the end that only articles of California manufacture be used. And the consumer can only be so instructed by a liberal plan of advertising on the part of our manufacturers and merchants in their own home town newspapers—and here I would ask to be permitted to say a few words on advertising: "With the retail merchant it is information of what he has for sale. Every merchant should keep that aim in view, first, last and all the time. "Advertising is so broad a subject that it is seemingly impossible to decide where it begins and where it ends. Every action of a merchant or of mines writes as follows regarding the law: "When licensing agents are designated notice will be given in local papers and licenses issued in all localities. Meanwhile there should be no interruption in production of coal or other necessities involving use of explosives. Manufacturers will probably be licensed by November 15th and on and after that date vendors, foremen, exporters, importers and analysts should keep itemized records of sales, issues or other disposition of explosives pending receipt of detailed instructions and licenses." In reply to an inquiry as to the status of gold mines in connection with the phrase "other necessities" mentioned in the above telegram, the following telegram was received: "All industries requiring explosives should continue until local licenses are issued." Under date of October 27, the Engineering & Mining Journal makes the following statement in connection with conferences held in Washington, in regard to the explosives law: "That mines accustomed to distribute explosives among their men will have to abandon the practice became evident during the discussion. Under the new regulations the only feasible in California should be fed to swine, as it ought to be. So the college of agriculture started a garbage collecting route in one of the outlying districts of Oakland and has conducted it since last June. Here is what the university found out: From 19 families came enough garbage suitable for hog feed to average five pounds per person or 21 pounds per family per week. It was found that 31 pounds of this garbage when fed to hogs would produce a pound of pork (allowing a dressing per cent of 80.)"

Every merchant should keep that aim in view, first, last and all the time. Advertising is so broad a subject that it is seemingly impossible to decide where it begins and where it ends. Every action of a merchant, or of his employees, advertises the firm. How long the effect of the action goes on before it ceases operations merely offers food for speculation. One of the foremost advertisers in New York has said, that 'the art of advertising is merely presenting attractively the absolute truth concerning the goods to be sold.' When the proposition is carefully thought out, its aptness will be fully realized. What should be sought in the use of any medium of advertising is the relating of facts concerning that which the merchant has for sale. There are many ways of advertising, but newspaper advertising is the best and most efficient for the retailer. He can talk to its readers, daily or weekly, and if his speech is intelligent, convincing and attractive, it is sure to amply repay him for what it costs. Successful advertising is not that which is done by fits and starts; neither is it that which is prepared because the space has been purchased and must be used. Space filling is not advertising. There should be something to advertise before the merchant sits down to write an advertisement. "The time has come when the merchant must advertise or retire from business. He must not only advertise, but he must do what he advertises he will; he must offer the same values at the same prices that he says he will in his advertisements. 'We do as we advertise,' is almost as familiar nowadays as 'Your money back if you want it.' Both are new features in modern merchandising. With their advent came many other new and really good ideas that are helping to make the merchant's life an easier one. Modern publicity must be given the credit for the inception of the new life in commercial circles. Advertising is the parent of every modern method. Advertising is forcing new methods and new ideas into existence every day." All industries requiring explosives should continue until local licenses are issued." Under date of October 27, the Engineering & Mining Journal makes the following statement in connection with conferences held in Washington, in regard to the explosives law: "That mines accustomed to distribute explosives among their men will have to abandon the practice became evident during the discussion. Under the new regulations the only feasible plan will probably be the assignment of particular men to handle explosives and do the shooting. Otherwise it will be necessary to search workmen as they leave the mine. It has been suggested to the bureau that the wording of the phrase "in such manner as to be detrimental to the public safety," should be defined in detail; that the procedure to punish guilty persons be specified; that the federal district judge be looked to for interpretations of the law; that the shot firing system be made general United States marshals, state mine inspectors and deputies of the state inspectors have been suggested as the officials to serve as licensors." Personally, I am unable to see how mines can comply with the provisions of this law without putting on blasting crews or shot firers. Mine operators are cautioned to have careful records, kept after Nov. 15, of the amounts of explosives issued to each man. Attention is also directed to the fact that the law appears to hold the mine operator responsible for the return of unused explosives and blasting supplies to the magazine. IT'S HARD TO WORK When Suffering From Kidney Ills. Many Anaheim People Find Thisto be True What's so hard as a day's work with an aching back? Or sharp stabs of pain with every sudden twist or turn?

Here is what the university found out: From 19 families came enough garbage suitable for hog feed to average five pounds per person or 21 pounds per family per week. It was found that 31 pounds of this garbage when fed to hogs would produce a pound of pork (allowing a dressing per cent of 80.) This means that the available hog feed now burned up in the Berkeley incinerator alone would produce 1500 pounds of pork a day, or the equivalent of all the food needed for the 361 young men who have been drafted from Berkeley and for a hundred university students besides. Greater skimming of the garbage can would have saved some of this food for human use—and so used it would be worth three to five times as much as when fed to swine. While there has been a marked decrease in the food avoidably wasted from California witchens, there is still plenty of room for improvement. But no matter how much thrift is exercised by the housewife, there will always be a large amount of kitchen refuse excellently suited for feeding swine. BEAN GROWING BENEFITS SOIL The question of what effect bean growing, year after year, has upon the soil would seem to have been very thoroughly tested by Miles Balcom. a well known grower of Santa Paula. Balcom has been growing lima beans on his land some thirty years. In the beginning he got an average crop per acre of 10 to 12 sacks of 80 pounds each. Year by year the yield per acre increased until the last two years the average yield per acre was 25 sacks. He harvested this year an average per acre of 21 sacks of 100 pounds each and one 30-acre tract produced 42 sacks per acre. Of course the methods of farming have improved and Balcom is one of those farmers who do their best to improve with the times. But his experience, it would certainly seem, has demonstrated that bean growing is a benefit and not an injury to the soil. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Hemit is canning Beaumont apples.

I was in constant misery from dull aching in the small of my back and some nights I didn't sleep well. My kidneys acted too frequently and caused me annoyance, especially at night. I read of Doan's Kidney Pills and one box cured my backache, regulated my kidneys and made me feel like a different man." Price 60c at all dealers.
