Bub Sackett and Charles Koehler went down to the beach Friday night and created havoc among the sportive grunnion that were parading on the sands in large numbers that night.

Nagel, John Eymann and L. E. Miller as sureties was filed in connection with the temporary injunction issued by Judge West against the city of Anaheim, whereby the city trustees are prevented from going ahead with the destruction of the city hall. The city trustees are taking an appeal from Judge West's decision. The bond will cover whatever damage is done the city by reason of the delay, should the decision of Judge West granting the temporary injunction be reversed by the upper court. It was somewhat of an eye opener to the trustees and spectators at the council meeting Thursday night when Engineer O. E. Steward said that the German American Bank building extended one foot over the street line on Los Angeles street. The building belonging to J. D. Heitshusen farther north, also encroaches a foot over on the street line. This was discovered several years ago when the Carroll building was erected. That structure has been built upon the correct survey line. The trustees have the power to narrow the street in that block, but it is doubtful if they would do so, as the tendency here is to widen the streets, especially in the downtown district, rather than reduce them. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Duckworth spent Easter Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Pendleton at Pasadena.

Mr. Mills reported at the board of trade Monday evening that the telephone committee of which he is a member are preparing a plan to be presented to the people shortly, which if perfected would be a non-profit organization and operated solely for the benefit of the people. The telephone exchange no doubt will be along the cooperative plan and all surplus money after expenses are paid will revert back to the patrons. C. E. Holcomb, president of the First National bank, is detained at his home in Fullerton with an attack of measles. It is a condition and not a theory that the city trustees find themselves up against in the decision of Judge Thomas of the superior court, wherein he ruled that the Anaheim sewer farm constituted a nuisance. The court however allows the city trustees 100 days to abate the nuisance. Several years ago when the sewer farm was established one septic tank was found to be sufficient for purification work. The past year many new residences and business houses have been connected with the sewerage system. As a result the tank has become over taxed and as a natural consequence there has been more or less offensive odors there during low air depressions. The court avers that a nuisance exists. The city now is arranging to install an additional tank to relieve the congestion. But this will take time. As the town continues to grow the sewer farm will be proportionately taxed to a greater extent than at present. After the installation of the additional septic tank, if that does not remedy matters, the city authorities will be strictly up against it. To remove the tanks from the present location would be impossible, and if the place is a nuisance and the court says it must be abated, the city trustees would have a problem upon their hands that may keep them awake nights. John Brunworth left Tuesday afternoon for Illinois where he goes to attend the 92nd anniversary of his father, who is hale and hearty. Mr. Brunworth will spend a couple of weeks in the east before returning to his home in this city. Miss Lucy Ziegler gave a slumber party Friday evening, the guest of honor being Miss Julia Heyling of Los Angeles, who was visiting friends here.

Adolph Thomas, president of the German American bank, announces that the bank will soon be nationalized, having applied for a charter. It will require probably five weeks to get the charter.

It is under this new law that the German American has applied for its charter.

Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE EVERY IDLE ACRE IS NEEDED EVERY IDLE ACRE IS NEEDED Just at present, when the world is engaged in the most gigantic struggle in its history, the forces of democracy against those of autocracy, the product of every idle acre that can be made productive is needed. Nearly every farm has some portion of it that is either not used at all or is used in such a way as to produce very little. On many farms there are patches of low ground which cannot be tilled because they are too wet. Usually when drained these wet areas are the richest land on the farm. This is an excellent time to put them into use. Small patches of wet land can be drained at small expense. Between now and the opening up of the spring work there is ample time to do the work. This year the farmer has been able to sell his products at a fair price and has the money with which to buy the tile. Every farmer, part of whose farm is unproductive, because it needs drainage, should take advantage of the present opportunity to add to his cropping area by supplying the necessary drainage. These lands will produce more than average farm lands. Every product will help to win the war. USE LOCAL SUPPLY OF LIME When lime is properly used, it is a great aid in speeding up the production of many crops. While it is not usually listed among the commercial fertilizers, it fudnishes a necessary food for plants. It also corrects acidity of the soil an dimproves its physical condition. It also influences favorably the decomposition of the organic matter in the soil and in some cases it may make available to a slight extent insoluble forms of potash and other minerals. It is particularly valuable if there is a good supply of organic matter in the soil. Spring is a good time to apply lime, particularly the hydrated form, and specialists of the department of agriculture are urging that local lime-stone deposits be utilized in every posible way. This is already being done in many places, but no doubt the practice could be very widely extended. However, it involves in the case of grinding, the purchase and delivery of grinding machinery, which may be difficult to accomplish, and in the case of local burning it means the purchase and delivery of fuel unless there is local fuel available. Wherever fuel, either wood or coal, is available, however, together with a local supply of limestone, every effort should be put forth to make use of this limestone in the present emergency. TRUSTEES IN SPECIAL SESSION The board of trustees met in special session Tuesday evening and passed an emergency resolution, calling for bids for the installation of an additional Imhoff tank at the sewer farm. The same will be found printed in another column of this issue. The work must be completed within 100 days. Mrs. Meyers has received a letter from her sister in Dakota in which she states that schools in the Dakotas have been closed six weeks earlier than formerly, in order that the school children may help harvest crops.
