Local capitalists, have been discussing the reestablishment of the cannery, and it is probable that the enterprise may again be launched here. There is an abundance of vegetables and small fruits raised in this section which heretofore has in great part been wasted owing to a lack of canning facilities. It is authoritatively announced that an unlimited market for all canned goods will exist in this country for a number of years hence. At present the demand greatly exceeds the supply. A cooperative cannery without any blue sky bonus would appear to be the proper thing for this city.

The Victoria top with plate glass side windows makes a very classy turnout. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Cook left yesterday for San Jacinto Hot Springs to be absent several weeks.

Hout's place of business on West Center street. The new building is of modern design in every particular and is attracting much attention, and is favorably commented upon by citizens generally. Twenty-six boys of Fullerton are canvassing the town for junk to help the Red Cross. These boys wear a hatband of red with three gold stars on it. They want all the old newspapers and magazines, brass, copper, iron, lead, bottles, sacks, cold cream jars, tooth paste tubes, tin or lead foil, typewriter supplies, in fact everything in the way of junk.

Health Officer Truxaw reports one scarlet fever case in town and he adds that the patient has entirely recovered. Two houses have been quarantined, one for a suspicious case, but the quarantine upon this house was raised yesterday. Rumors that there had been eight cases of scarlet fever in town were pronounced entirely erroneous by Dr. Truxaw. Only one case of scarlet fever has existed during the week and the patient has recovered. City Clerk Merritt says if anyone, who has opinions that the city finances are not in good shape, and amply accounted for, will call at his office he will hand them a copy of his annual report, which will explain everything. Should that be insufficient Clerk Merritt will flash the yearly O.K. of the experts sent over by the grand jury, who in every instance have found city finances in excellent shape, fully accounted for to the very smallest amount. Clerk Merritt says if there are any "men from Missouri" all they have to do is to call and he will show them. President George F.

He was employed in the oil field, and two weeks ago, while assisting in raising a casing was struck on the head by a broken cable. He was taken to his home, but the injury was not considered serious.

WOOLNAP BLANKETS $4.95 Extra Heavy Blankets in Gray, Blue, Tan and Pink Plaids, full size, priced away below the actual worth per pair That town of Tom Talbert's is still producing prodigious yields. In addition to the greatest bean crops in the history of Orange county, now comes the Huntington Beach News with this remarkable story of a hen: "A Black Minorca hen belonging to Mrs. E. L. Payne, holds the record, so far as shown, for the number of eggs layed in one year by a hen in this community. This hen will be four years old next spring (a spring chicken) and layed her first egg November 14th of last year. According to a report kept of her activity in this line of work, she has layed 254 eggs in the past 12 months. According to statistics, 150 eggs per year is considered good. Therefore, the record of Mrs. Payne's hen is a big one." Annual memorial services for the dead will be held by the Elks in one of the Anaheim theaters on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 9. Glenn M. Callan, of Orangethorpe some time ago enlisted in the navy but did not report his action to the local exemption board. When his name was called for examination he did not appear. The exemption board, not knowing that he had enlisted, of course could do nothing else but report him to the adjutant general as failing to report. His name was published on the 12th in the list of those reported to the adjutant general. His friends will be glad to learn that he is not a slacker, because they could not understand how he could be. They will be still more pleased to learn that he did not even wait to be drafted, but voluntarily got into the harness to help Uncle Sam at the earliest possible moment.
