DRY TERRITORY BECOMING DRYER SUPERVISORS FORBID TRANSPORTATION OF BOOZE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY STEELE FINLEY GETS CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF BREA-OLINDA ROAD Orange county, already a dry county, is going drier. Wednesday the board of supervisors passed an ordinance presented by the district attorney by which it will become unlawful to transport liquor through dry territory of this county. Spraying licenses were ordered issued to W. G. Mason, George M. Bartley, Frank E. Partridge and J. R. Johnson, on recommendation of the horticultural commissioner. The county auditor was directed to draw warrants for payment of registration clerk's for month of May, 1918. The returns of the election for the formation of Olive Lighting district of Orange county were canvassed, and the district declared established. A bond for security of the 1918-1919 taxes on Shaw & Russell's Sunnyside addition to the city of Santa Ana was approved. Wm. Russell Coleman, constable of Santa Ana township, was granted a leave of absence from the state for 60 days from June 1, 1918. KEEP A MILCH GOAT Not only is the keeping of a good milch goat desirable from a financial standpoint, but also from the fact that in almost any small backyard, one or two goats can be kept very nicely and with very little care, giving to their owners the cleanest and with all the most wholesome of food. The milk from any of the popular breeds, the Swiss, Toggenberg, the Swiss-Saanen or the Anglo Nubian, is far superior in creamy richness and food value to the ordinary cow's milk, in fact, one quart of goat's milk is equivalent to about three times the same amount of cow's milk. At a recent poultry and pet stock show, which was held at the $1,000,000 Municipal auditorium in Oakland, I exhibited twenty of our Toggenberg goats and each afternoon and evening we displayed and distributed to the public samples of goat's milk, goat's milk cheese, and butter made from goat's cream. During the six days of the show over 3000 people drank samples of goat's milk, and the answer invariably was, "It tastes just like cream." And so it does. I am often asked, how much does it cost to keep a goat in the city? Can we keep one or two goats in a high class neighborhood, such as where we live? My answer is this: We feed only the best alfalfa hay, which costs at present about $32 per ton, and a very small amount of mash, which is very expensive at present. But, even with these prices, our average cost per head is about $1.35 per month, or about 2½ cents per quart of milk, equal to cream in richness. As to being able to keep goats in fashionable districts, I would call your attention to the recent enacted ordinance in the aristocratic city of Pasadena, where the ban has always which could be tion.

Russell Coleman, constable of Santa Ana township, was granted a leave of absence from the state for 60 days from June 1, 1918. The demands of the Birch Oil Co. for $4354 and $4961.42 were rejected. The application of Fred Marsile to lay pipe line along 17th street was granted. J. S. Miller was granted an extension of time to July 3, 1918 for the completion of his paving contract in the Santa Ana canyon. A resolution was adopted approving the location of Pacific Colony on the El Casco ranch near Beaumont, Calif. S. R. Fitz of Garden Grove and B. F. Beswick of Tustin were appointed as members of the county board of education. A deed from the Stearns Rancho Co. for rights of way was accepted and ordered recorded. The clerk was instructed to notify the Spanish American Institute of Gardena, Calif., that the county will not be responsible for the board and care of Marcelo Vega and Luis Vega after July 1, 1918. A fumigating license was ordered issued to W. S. Jones on recommendation of the horticultural commissioner. Bids for improvement of Brea-Olinda road, section 3 and portions of La Mirada avenue and Main street in La Habra were opened and the contract was awarded to Steele Finley for the sum of $16,479.20. The clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for supplying Olive lighting district of Orange county with electricity, bids to be opened July 3, 1918 at 10 a.m. The hearing of the petition of David Hewes Realty Co., et al., for vacation and abandonment of a portion of a 60 foot road in the Fourth road district was continued to June 18, 1918 at 10 a.m. The application of M. Sasaki for permit to lay pipe line across county road 1½ miles east of Westminster was granted. Bids for improvement of a portion of La Palma and Patt streets near Anaheim Sugar Cane factory were opened and the contract awarded to We feed only the best alfalfa hay, which costs at present about $32 per ton, and a very small amount of mash, which is very expensive at present. But, even with these prices, our average cost per head is about $1.35 per month, or about 2¼ cents per quart of milk, equal to cream in richness. As to being able to keep goats in fashionable districts, I would call your attention to the recent enacted ordinance in the aristocratic city of Pasadena, where the ban has always been on as to the keeping of cows, but the city fathers encourage the keeping of goats. Some of the wealthiest and most aristocratic families of Pasadena keep from one to six goats, and there are no limits to the number that may be kept in one place in the city of Los Angeles. Anyone who has had experience with dairy cows or who is fond of domestic pets will be successful with goats. The milk goat industry and the rapidly growing popularity of milk goats is due only to the recognition by the public of the fact that goat's milk, in these days of high costs of food for human consumption, is hard to beat. Let us all strive in an earnest endeavor to make the milch goat which is our most intelligent and reciprocative domestic animal, as popular with the homes of California as she is in the countries of Europe. We can rightly term her "The wise man's cow."—Rae P. Williams. BIG NEW RICE TRACT To say nothing of patriotic considerations, the high price of rice has stimulated the planting of that crop to an unparalleled degree in all parts of California where the little white kernel can be raised to advantage. The Colusa county rice growers are to the front with a big acreage, which some estimate to be 30 per cent more than last year. Yolo county now looms up as a great rice region. Over 12,000 acres of land in that county have been made available for rice culture this season through negotiations successfully concluded between the United States food administration for California and Lake Yolo counties, which have agreed to permit the use of water from Clear Lake for the irrigation of the rice lands. The land will be planted and harvested by individuals, and according to food administration officials, the The application of M. Sasaki for permit to lay pipe line across county road 1½ miles east of Westminster was granted. Bids for improvement of a portion of La Palma and Patt streets near Anaheim Sugar Co. factory were opened, and the contract awarded to A. G. Wright for $2803.07. The petition of Catherine A. Brooks et al, for abandonment of a portion of Bluff drive in Laguna Beach, was set for hearing on July 3, 1918 at 10 a.m. The petition of Catherine A. Brooks et al, to abandon portions of Pearl street in Laguna Beach was set for hearing on July 3, 1918 at 10 a.m. Bids were received and opened for the $12,000 issue of La Habra school district bonds, and said bonds were sold to The National City Co. of California for par, accrued interest and a premium of $617.00. The County Auditor was ordered to draw a warrant in favor of A. S. Bradford for $61.75 for deficiency in payment of expense of the Orange county exhibit at the National Orange show. A deed from the Orange county Trust and Savings Bank for rights of way in Laguna Beach, was accepted and ordered recorded and the county auditor was instructed to draw a warrant on the county general fund for $600 in payment of the same. A petition for the organization of the Newport Heights irrigation district was set for hearing on June 18, 1918 at 10 A.M. A portion of West street in Anaheim Extension was declared a county road. ANAHEIM GAZETTE DEBT NATION OWES TO THE FARMER What State Food Administration Merritt Thinks of Him Never before has the world realized the great debt it owes to the farmer. Today the producer of foodstuffs stands as much a soldier in the ranks as does the fighting man looking out over No Man's Land in France. The farmer is the driving force behind the armies of America and the Allies. Without his continued production our soldiers would be powerless; starvation would face the armies and civilian populations of the Allies; the war would end with the Hun hordes overrunning all Europe, and Prussian domination would be brought to America's shores. It therefore has become the patriotic duty of every agricultural worker to put his hands to the plow or tractor and produce a still greater supply of food products. The war has served to demonstrate to the country at large, as the country never realized before its dependence on agriculture and on the many factors of this primary industry. There is reason to believe, therefore that henceforth agriculture will have the active sympathy and cooperation of all classes in a position to render aid. The farmers of the United States will not fail to do all they can in this emergency, and with favorable seasons they undoubtedly will produce enough to sustain the civil populations and the armies of our own and the allied countries. Y. M. C. A. WORK Two months before the British army advanced upon Palestine, at which front it attained its first objective in the capture of Jaffa and Jerusalem, the Y. M. C. A. war work secretaries with the troops in that campaign were asked to depart from their principle to make the fit man fit in every way, and to concentrate their strength in the forthcoming push upon caring for the unfit man—wounded, and for the time being, physically down and out. The association men had trekked along the old Jerusalem road out of Egypt into Palestine, across the scorching sands of Sinai into the waste plains of the promised land, and at the word of command they sprang to the task. When the first wounded troops came off the field into the clearing stations thirty Y. M. C. A. men, with sixty detailed soldiers were ready to serve them. When these same wounded men passed down the long lines of communication, they were again served by the Y. M. C. A. men. The man power of the association was concentrated upon feeding and caring for the wounded men as they journeyed down the line. This was kept up until the last wounded man had passed through. English, Scotch, Irish, Australians, New Zealanders, and one or two Americans were served. More than a hundred thousand cups of cocoa were passed out, a similar number of packages of biscuits, 42,000 packets of cigarettes, 50,000 pieces of cake, 23,000 bars of chocolate besides matches, newspapers and sandwiches.

In a publication of the department of agriculture, Bulletin 616, "The Citrus Thrips, 55 J. R. Horton, of the Bureau of Entomology, describes the citrus thrips in this country, its life history and control, and announces the results of extensive experiments in spraying. Maps presented in the publication mentioned show the distribution of the citrus thrips in California and Arizona, to which states the insect is confined, it is believed. The insect is known to occur in eight counties in California—Sacramento, Fresno, Tulare, Kern, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange. The infestation is most serious in Tulare, Frasno, Riverside and San Bernardino. In Kern county the insect is increasing rapidly, and with larger plantings doubtless will be quite as injurious as in Tulare county, the writer of the publication believes. The most important damage caused by thrips is the lowering of the market value of fruit by unsightly scabbing and scarring.

This country needs every ounce of food that can be grown and there are markets for all of it. No land should be allowed to stand idle; no field but should be made to produce its greatest crop. Every attention should be given to the protection of the growing grain. Every ounce lost takes from the hungry population of Europe; snatches bread from the mouths of the starving children of Belgium and decreases the available supply of food for the fighting forces. The man who wastes and the man who permits his land to remain idle are as surely alding Germany as is the traitor who betrays his fighting comrades. The penalties differ, but the results of the act are as far reaching and as damaging to America's cause. The crying need today and for months and years to come is wheat. This grain, together with pork and meats, is the great necessary commodity which this country is called upon to supply the Allies. Every increased acre of wheat and every extra hog is a direct contribution to the cause of this country as well as a powerful weapon for the ultimate defeat of Prussianism and all the evils that follow in its train. The policy of the food administration is to see to it that the farmer receives a proper return for his produce. No practice will be permitted which would put the farmer at the mercy of any combination of price fixers or food manipulators. The food administration has definitely stated that every producer of f food should receive a fair, profitable price for it. In the price one pays for grain or flour one can have the satisfaction of knowing that the man who grew the grain received the bulk of the money.

In the price one pays for grain or flour one can have the satisfaction of knowing that the man who grew the grain received the bulk of the money. No middleman bought it for a small price, added excess profits, and then retailed it to the consumer at a high price and exorbitant gain. The food administration has been given no jurisdiction over price fixing of grain other than wheat, but the millers have voluntarily limited themselves to a fair margin of profit. The same is true of all those through whose hands grain must pass in its journey from the producer to the consumer. When the food administration appeals to the farmer for a greater production this year, it appeals not only to his patriotism, but to his purse. Food must continue to play a more and more important part in the future of the world for the next ten years to come. With the government backing the man who raises food and seeing to it that he receives a fair price for his product, there is no chance for the farmer to lose out. For some years, at least, there will be no such thing as an overproduction and glutted market, of wheat, grains of all kinds; pork, beef, meats, dairy products and the perishable vegetables. The man who raises them will receive in cash adequate compensation for his production, I believe. The greatest patriotic duty every person in this country can perform is to till every foot of ground. Increase production of every kind of foodstuff; see that none is wasted and in this way help feed the Allies and our own armies. This applies to the farmer with many acres as well as the city dweller with a small lot. "Bee men of the county Saturday fixed 21 cents a pound as the minimum price they will consider for white orange honey and stood pat when the representatives of buyers declined to come up to that figure. It was reported the buyers were ready to offer 20½ cents. The bee men declined to open the auction at that figure, holding that the auction must be opened at 21 cents. The bee men present offered about 1200 cases, or nearly three carloads of white honey. The estimates on the white honey supply in the county vary, with 75 per cent of a normal crop as the maximum. The bee-men blame the loss in bees in the June heat wave of last year as largely responsible for the situation. The white honey sold last year for 13 85-100 cents for water white, and 12½ cents for white. The year previous the price for white was about 6½ cents. War conditions have increased the demand for honey, and increased the cost of production." LIME SULPHUR BEST FOR CITRUS THRIPS Government Entomologists Develop Remedy for California Pests Plain lime sulphur solution applied in three successive sprays will enable a satisfactory control of the citrus thrips, an insect which is rapidly becoming a menace to the production or oranges, grapefruit and lemons in California and Arizona, according to investigations by entomologists of the United States Department of agriculture.

Before war was declared they had the machinery all prepared for opening war loan banks (darlehenkassen), and they started these to work immediately. A man can go to one of these banks, mortgage his property, real or personal, and receive currency for the amount of the loan; that is, paper money issued by the loan banks. He can take his bonds of the first government war loan and pledge them as security for a loan with which he buys bonds for a loan of the second war issue.

Germany's eight war loans have been issued and laid on that kind of an inflated pyramid. The latest estimates that I have seen indicate that there are now about $25,000,000,000 in the pyramid. The kaiser may for the moment consider himself as in Cheops' class, but the chances are that this pyramid will endure only long enough to topple over and crush him. "A tremendous inflation of bank credits like that I have described naturally brings about inflation in the currency. In December, 1913, the total issues of paper money in Germany were $700,000,000. By the end of 1917 the paper money issues had been increased to very nearly $5,000,000,000, or seven fold. Although gold reserves had increased by about $250,000,000, the proportion of gold to paper money fell from 47 per cent to 12 per cent. "In Austria conditions are apparently worse. There the Austro-Hungarian bank has simply become an institution for the manufacture of credit for the state. Its holdings of gold have disappeared almost entirely, Germany, no doubt, having generously volunteered to act as custodian for them." NEW JERSEY PICNIC Here is an open invitatin for all the people of Southern California who ever lived in New Jersey to attend a jolly all day picnic reunion in Sycamore grove, Los Angeles, Saturday, June 15th. There will be county headquarters where you can meet friends, basket dinners at noon, coffee provided, and a program opening about two o'clock with songs and addresses. Each one who reads this notice is asked to pass it on to all the New Jersey folks possible. Take a day off and have a regular family reunion and good time, for this is the main object of our picnic. Honor the old home state with a patriotic remembrance rally. Tourists and visitors will be warmly welcomed. THE NEXT CONGRESS Speaking of the congressional elections next fall, Elihu Root says: "There are probably 20 or 30 congressional districts in this country where there is a loyal majority, but where there is so large a disloyal minority that a division of the loyal majority may let a pro-German in. In every one of those districts Democrats and Republicans and all loyal men should get together and agree upon the loyal man of one party or the other who is surest to carry the district, and to unite on him without regard to party. "There is one great, single predominant qualification for an election to the next congress, and that is a loyal heart. The one important thing is to put men in congress who will represent the driving power of the American people for the winning of the war. I don't care whether a man is a democrat, or a republican or a progressive or a socialist or a prohibitionist, as long as he has a loyal heart. Otherwise it is treason to send him to congress." That's exactly the way the public feels about it. Sergeant Hollis Knowlton, now at Guantanamo Bay naval station, son of O. V. Knowlton, has been awarded a silver medal for target practice.
