Frank Wick died at his home west of town early Thursday morning, influenza, which developed into pneumonia, being the cause. Mr. Wick was a butcher and conducted a slaughter house just west of Holy Cross cemetery. He was 36 years of age, and leaves a wife and two children. Funeral was held at Backs & Terry's Friday, being under the auspices of the Eagles, of which order he was a member. Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Sherwood, of Fullerton, are mourning the untimely death of both a son and a daughter. Several days ago their daughter, Mrs. Madeline Robinson, died of pneumonia, and on Friday night their son, Arthur H. Sherwood, died of influenza.

Hong Dan was arraigned in police court Monday charged with running a gambling den in Chinatown, and three others were pulled in for patronizing the game. Hong was fined $25 and the others got $10 each. Ed. Clever, a Fullerton machinist, was slightly injured in an auto accident on North Lemon street Saturday afternoon. Some one notified police headquarters of the accident and Officer Andrade, who responded to the call, found Clever lying unconscious and his car, reduced to a pile of junk. The injured man was taken to the sanitarium where he soon recovered and was sent to his home in Fullerton. Two graphophones and 175 records were contributed by Anaheim people to the boys overseas through Mrs. H. O. Henderson, the collecting agent here. Fifteen hundred records were contributed in Orange county. E. E. Cooley, of Santa Ana, has sworn to a complaint charging Mrs. Clyde Alling with battery. The statement upon which Deputy District Attorney Menton authorized the complaint was that Mrs. Alling conducted his daughter, with whom Mrs. Alling had become displeased, from the store with which Mrs. Alling is connected. John Cubbon, who is chairman of the Non-War Building Board of Orange county, advises that people wishing to do construction work must first make application to the city clerk for permission and then leave the application with Cubbon at his residence, 902 French street. Permit must be secured for every character of building, even if an addition to a residence. Application blanks have just been received and are being left with all the city clerks in the county. Down at Westminster the growers are threshing their bean straw after the first threshing and getting results. One grower got 120 sacks from the straw and another one 81 sacks from 52 acres.

Moreover only one box can be sent to each soldier. S. C. Hartranft has filed a copy of the will and proceedings in the settlement of the estate of Samuel J. Griffin in Brown county, South Dakota, father of Mrs. Hartranft. The estate was valued at $105,000. Some proceedings are necessary in the estate. Griffin died in 1917, at Norwood, Ontario, Canada, and letters on the estate were issued to Hartranft in South Dakota. H. G. Ames is attorney for Hartranft. The rig, engine house and drilling apparatus of the Union Oil Company’s Chapman well No. 1 burned to the ground at 4 o’clock Wednesday morning, with a total loss of $4,000. The well was standing cemented at 2800 feet and work of cementing was to be started this morning, and the watchman was ordered to fire up at an early hour. The watchman used an oil stove with which he kept warm, and it is thought that when he was out it flared up and set things off. Before he could get the alarm into the company everything nearly was ablaze, as the rig was covered with oil. Rudolph Fossek is in receipt of a letter from his son Emil Fossek, written from Anchorage, Alaska, of date August 24, in which he stated that he would depart from there on the next boat leaving that country. It is feared that the young man was a passenger on the ill-fated Princess Sophia, which was the only vessel leaving Alaska since the letter had been written. The family are greatly worried over the circumstance, but since the name of his son has not appeared in the list of those lost, Mr. Fossek pins his hopes that his son did not take passage upon the wrecked steamer. A dispatch has been sent to the young man, but as yet no answer has been received to the telegram. Fred LeVecke, the hot tamale man, whose little white push cart was a familiar sight on the streets, will be seen no more. He is a victim of the flu. He was taken sick the fore part of last week and died at his home west of town Saturday afternoon. LeVecke was 68 years of age, and had been a resident of this section two years. He leaves a wife and ten children. Theodore Roberts, Jr., the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Roberts, was seriously burned about the head and face last Thursday evening, and had it not been for the prompt action of Dan Naugle and others who witnessed the affair, he would probably have been fatally burned. The little fellow, wearing a Halloween mask with tow whiskers and carrying a lighted lantern, was parading on the street in front of his father’s jewelry store. In some manner the whiskers caught fire from the candle in his lantern and instantly his head was enveloped in flames. Witnesses tore the blazing mask off, but it was found that his face, neck and ears were badly burned. His eyes, fortunately, were not injured. PERSONALS Miss Edna Wents, sister of Mrs. H. G. Ames, is suffering from influenza. Dr. J. W. Truxaw is able to be on duty again after being laid up several days with influenza. Bernard Dresser, who has been very ill with pneumonia for some weeks, is now convalescent. Walter Neipp has resumed his position at the Standard Oil Company service station on North Los Angeles street, after a several weeks’ layoff on account of a broken arm. Richard Krebs, of Azusa, formerly a well-known resident of Anaheim, was in town Monday visiting friends and relatives. Mr. Krebs has an orange orchard which he says is doing nicely. Gerald Simpson, who recently moved his family to San Antonio, Texas, where he was engaged in Y. M. C. A. work at the military camp, has been called to Washington on special duty in that city and New York. Marshal Wood and Deputies Andrade and Baxter, on Saturday were on duty from 16 to 18 hours each. Sunday morning there were fifteen men in jail, most of them charged with minor offenses. Attorney T. L. McFadden, of Placentia, who recently entered the service as a Y. M. C. A. athletic instructor, will leave Sunday for France. Tom was one of the foremost athletes at Stanford during his student days, and will be a valuable addition to the Y. M. C. A. branch of the service. City Trustee R. J. McFadden recently successfully passed the examination for a captaincy in the U.S. engineers, and will shortly be assigned to his po- Automobilists who are willing to donate their cars, with or without driver, for the use of Federal officers, are asked to communicate with one of the officers of the Automobile Club of Southern California. The Auto Club has a long list of volunteers on file and no one party is called upon to lend his car for government work more than once in a month, and often not that frequently. Membership in the Auto Club is not necessary to volunteer for this work, the club merely acting as intermediary to secure cars when they are needed. Long runs are not requested since the 17 branches of the Automobile Club make frequent relays possible. Heads of the various Federal departments have expressed their appreciation of the response of the members of the Auto Club to the call for cars and expect that non-members also will be equally generous in enlarging the system. The Auto Club has also received a letter of thanks from the Red Cross for the frequent loan of its trucks to that organization. Registrants have been called for physical examination for Friday, November 8, at 1 F. M., as follows: Fred A. Thuet, La Habra; Freeman D. Sturtevant, Fullerton; Oswald N. Stock, Anaheim; John V. Snow, La Habra; Joseph P. Silvas, Placentia; Wesley B. Sigler, Fullerton; Herbert T. Scribner, Fullerton; Charles R. Scott, Seal Beach; Charles H. Rockwell, Anaheim; William A.

MILLS, Pacific 50-W. PIONEER DEAD Henri F. Gardner, a pioneer of Orange county, died in Los Angeles on Sunday. With his passing goes a man who was intimately connected with many of the early enterprises and activities of this section. He arrived at Orange in 1872. His home was at the southwest corner of Glassell street and La Veta avenue. He was deeply interested in public affairs and occupied numerous positions of importance, including that of superintendent for the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company. For the last twenty years he has lived most of the time in Los Angeles, though continuing property interests at Orange. H. H. Gardner of Santa Ana, H. R. Gardner of Orange and Attorney D. R. Gardner are sons. There are four daughters, Dr. Placida Gardner and Miss Margaret Gardner, in France in Red Cross work with the Stanford unit, Mrs. Ora Devereaux and Miss Sidney Gardner, an attorney. Death was due to paralysis. GRAND JURY Judge Thomas Monday set November 18 at 10 A.M., as the time for selecting a grand jury of nineteen men to be chosen from the following: C. C. Chapman, Fullerton; Carl A. Seaman, Yorba Linda; Frank C. Proud, La Habra; M. P. Westcott, Orange; W. Dean Johnston, Westminster; E. E. Cooley, Santa Ana; L. H. Wallace, Newport Beach; E. E.

McFadden, of Placentia, who recently entered the service as a Y. M. C. A. athletic instructor, will leave Sunday for France. Tom was one of the foremost athletes at Stanford during his student days, and will be a valuable addition to the Y. M. C. A. branch of the service. City Trustee R. J. McFadden recently successfully passed the examination for a captaincy in the U.S. engineers, and will shortly be assigned to his position in the service. Ralph graduated as a civil engineer at Stanford university, and easily met all the requirements for a captain's commission, both educationally and physically. FRAUDULENT OLIVE OIL Food inspectors have been instructed by the officials in charge of the enforcement of the Federal food and drugs act to inspect interstate shipments of olive oil, in order to prevent the sale in interstate commerce of cheaper vegetable oils under the name of olive oil. Very little olive oil is now being imported, say the officials, and the domestic olive oil is not sufficient to supply the demand. The abnormally high price of genuine olive oil has tempted unscrupulous dealers to mix cheaper vegetable oils with a little genuine olive oil and to sell the mixture labeled as olive oil. Cotton-seed oil, corn oil, and soy-bean oil are the principal substitutes used. Several seizures have been made and a number of prosecutions are now pending in the Federal courts as the result of finding in interstate commerce products labeled "olive oil," which upon analysis were found to consist largely of cotton-seed oil. Cotton-seed, corn, and soy-bean oils are palatable oils which are not injurious to health and there is no objection to their sale as food when properly labelled, say the officials. Their sale as olive oil, however, is a fraud, and their shipment in interstate or foreign commerce labeled as olive oil is a violation of the Federal food and drugs act. The sale of cotton-seed, corn, or soy-bean oils under the name of olive oil is also a violation of the laws of most states.State and city food inspectors are cooperating with the Federal food inspectors in stopping this form of adulteration. An angle of a prosecution that was started in this county and which was H. F. Keallher has petitioned for letters of administration upon the estate of Daicy Kealher, who died October 12, leaving an estate valued at $3,000. The Fullerton-Placentia Walnut Association is crowded to capacity, having fully 100 tons piled up in the packing house ahead of the force of workmen. Secretary Arthur Staley reports the crop exceptionally good, and he says that the walnut worm has hardly made its appearance known around that district. All sacks are treated before being returned to the growers to prevent the spread of the worm. Under a will filed for probate the $22,700 estate of K. Ochi, a Garden Grove Japanese chili pepper grower who died on September 29, will go to a son, one of five children, in Japan. Ochi's estate includes a $15,000 pepper crop and $4,000 in a bank in Japan. The entire estate goes to the son with the exception of $250 distributed to friends at Garden Grove. Tokio Tanaka and S. Alhara, both of Garden Grove, are petitioners, they being named as executors. Samuel Kdaemer, Jr., of Placentia, has been confined to his room for several weeks, as a result of an injury received upon the head, when he had a disagreement with a police officer here. Samuel Kraemer, Sr., reports his son at times experiences excruciating pains at the back of his head despite the fact that the best of medical skill has been provided. Mr. Kraemer says the arrest of his son was unwarranted. POTATO YIELD INCREASES The yield of potatoes per acre is gradually increasing in this country, as shown by the records of the Bureau of Crop Estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture. During 1866-1874 the average annual yield per acre was 91 bushels, but the average markedly declined to 71.3 bushels in 1885-1894. Perceptible recovery was made in the following 10-year period and a much larger recovery, rising to a new high-water mark, was reached in 1905-1914, with its average yield of 97 bushels per acre. In 20 years the productivity of the average potato acre increased 36 percent. This increase is due to various causes, among which are greater specialization of production, more intensive treatment, and higher fertility of the soil. The 10-year average yield of 97 bushels per acre in 1905-1914 was followed by 96.3 bushels in 1915. An angle of a prosecution that was started in this county and which was interrupted by death came to light in Los Angeles Monday when Joaquin Llorens, 46, a Frenchman who has been at Vera Cruz, committed suicide. There is a good deal of under-world mystery about the case both in Los Angeles and in this county. Mrs. Guadalupe Valenzuela had her husband, a helpless cripple, arrested on a charge of felony. Llorens appeared in some way as the woman's protector. It is stated in Los Angeles that he received a threatening letter in which he was told that he would be killed. The letter seems to have come from men who wanted possession of the Valenzuela woman. Monday at 338 North Indiana street, Los Angeles, Llorens saw the men he thought were seeking his life, and he immediately took poison and died. The charge against Valenzuela, who died at the county hospital in this county of pneumonia, was formally dismissed by Justice Cox. 80.5 bushels in the very low year 1916, and 100.8 bushels in 1917. Compared with population, the yield per acre declined from 1866-1874 to 1905-1914. The gain of production per capita in recent years has been more because of increased acreage than because of increased production per acre.

Supply Future Needs Now Falkenstein's Department Store CONSERVATION METHODS USED IN BANQUETS Here's What Patriotic People Serve in Place of Elaborate Feed the vegetables and fruits that are procurable in your locality. Patriotic Americans are being urged to use more fish, hence the fish in place of meat; or, for the inland community, the use CONSERVATION METHODS USED IN BANQUETS Here's What Patriotic People Serve in Place of Elaborate Feed The banquet which is over-elaborate and which is a meal served in addition to the necessary daily meals or which uses foods that our government asks us to conserve has no place in the war-time program. Yet there are occasions, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, when the war activities may be helped by having those interested in kindred subjects gather at a meal, so why not have a dinner, or "banquet," if you choose to dignify it by that name, which takes the place of a regular meal? Such a meal will serve to get people together and at the same time may teach a real lesson in food conservation. Such a banquet is not an impossibility. Not long ago the students at the New York State College of Agriculture were confronted with the problem of whether they should forego their annual banquet or whether they should make it a war-time meal. They decided upon the latter course, and it turned out to be one of the most successful gatherings they had had. As one of the speakers expressed it, the meal not only served the purpose of calling attention to the possibilities of serving a dinner while adhering strictly to food regulations, but the banqueters themselves were immeasurably better off and would feel better next day because of the simplicity of the food served. No one has a more important part to play in bringing about this banquet reform than women, since they are very often charged with the duty of providing the meal, especially in connection with meetings held in churches and similar community centers. Here are two menus worked out as suggestions with the foregoing principles in view. They make liberal use of fruits and vegetables, for both are plentiful and healthful. Use any of the vegetables and fruits that are procurable in your locality. Patriotic Americans are being urged to use more fish, hence the fish in place of meat; or, for the inland community, the use of poultry. Old poultry can be sacrificed for such a purpose, as the meat is cooked and ground before using. The menus also make use of wheat substitutes and are planned to use a minimum sugar allowance. Conservation Menus No. 1 Ice Cold Cantaloupe. Baked Fish with Rice Stuffing. Tartar Sauce. Creamed Potatoes. Baked Tomato. Sauteed Eggplant. Hot Cornbread Sticks. Butter. Waldorf Salad. Barley Salad Wafters. Maple Ice-cream. Coconut Macaroons (sugarless). Coffee. No. 2. Chilled Fruit Cup. Chicken Loaf. Gravy. Glazed Sweet Potatoes. Baked Green Peppers Stuffed with Rice and Cheese. Graham Rolls. Celery and Tomato Salad. Gingerbread and Whipped Cream. Coffee. Raisins, Nuts. More novel, but perhaps not so appropriate for general use, is the meal centered around one food product, such as a harvest supper, using corn in as many ways as possible, or a cottage cheese or coconut dinner. Food conservation mottoes or cleverly worded menu cards can help bring the salient points of the food conservation campaign to the minds of the banqueters and help along the spreading of conservation news.
