Mrs. Reed is a sister of Mrs. Alex Wright, and has been visiting here some months. Sergeant Herbert Oelke arrived at home last week from overseas where he served several months helping whip the Kaiser. Miss Barbara Hunt celebrated her thirteenth birthday Saturday by entertaining a dozen or more of her young lady friends. At the close of an afternoon spent in playing various games refreshments were served by the young hostess. The Club bowling alley and pool room was sold last week to C. H. Fisher, who took possession Monday. Chilly will continue to run the business at the present location until his new quarters in the basement of the Cassou building are completed, which will be probably a month hence. The new place will be the finest thing of the kind in Orange county. There is ample room in the big basement and it will be fitted up for comfort, convenience and style. Four bowling alleys and several pool and billiard tables will be installed, and it is Chilly's intention to make this the sporting headquarters of Orange county. On the opening night-a bowling contest-for a hundred dollar purse will be pulled off between the Fahy-Atterburys and the Del Montes, the two high clubs in the league. Max Nebelung made a business trip to Los Angeles Saturday. East Chartres street is boasting a small building boom. Chillie Fisher has just completed five garages in the rear of the residence of Mrs. Clara Fisher, corner Lemon and Chartres streets, which he is offering for rent to garageless auto owners. Leo McGavren, who quit his job in the postoffice and went to war when the nation needed its young men at the front, has returned to his home and will probably resume the peaceful pursuit of dispatching mail. Leo was a member of the naval aviation corps, and went to France from San Diego last July, sailing across the ocean on the Leviathan, the world's biggest ship. Although he experienced excellent health while in France and returns to his home sound and well, he was not particularly impressed with that country. He much prefers Southern California, to "La Belle France." MEXICO Conditions are changing in Mexico since the signing of the armistice. People are taking advantage of cheap lands.

This was the regular monthly meeting. Samuel Kraemer appears to have faith in the future of Placentia. There is a great demand for houses in that little city now, and he is preparing to build a number for rent. William H. Walton has accepted a position with the Jackson clothing establishment, and began his duties Monday. Mr. Walton is an experienced clothing man, having served eight years with the Foreman & Clark emporium of San Francisco. H. F. H. Schneider has sold his ranch on Sycamore and East street to N. A. Stuhan. The ranch consists of ten acres of oranges and walnuts. Mr. Schneider and family will leave shortly for Nebraska. A well known rancher of the northwest section recently sunk a well, with the ostensible purpose of going for oil, but the best he could get was water. Experts say the oil strata flows southwest from the famous Olinda wells. Sergeant Ernest Norrish went down to Holtville last week on a visit to friends. He has been staying with his uncle, P. H. Krick, since his dis- After H. G. Ames arrived in Sacramento several days ago for the purpose of getting a bill through the last half of the bifurcated legislature, which would mean much to the city were he successful in his endeavors, he learned that he had to step lively in order to get a hearing in committee, as the session of the State solons is rapidly winding up its affairs. During these closing days of the final windup each member is limited to two bills, and Mr. Ames learned that all of them had exhausted their quotas. As is usually the custom a few skeleton bills are put through for emergency cases which upon being amended serve to save the day for some perplexed State legislator who finds himself hardpressed in getting through some pet measure. Ames in knowing the ropes pretty well got track of one of these skeletons which was in the possession of a Los Angeles friend. He lost no time in meeting this legislator and explaining his mission was handed the bill. Quickly attaching the amendment, which provided giving power to this city to acquire the proffered site offered for park purposes, Ames got the bill in the hands of his friend Eden and when he left the capital for his homeward trip he was assured that everything would be done to get it through. Lieut. Godfrey Stock, who was granted month's leave of absence on account of the serious illness of his mother-in-law, came over from San Bernardino last week, accompanied by his wife, on a visit to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey Stock. This was his first visit to the old folks in two years. Lieut. Stock was with the army in France eight months and saw a con- Personal Mention F. H.

Experts say the oil strata flows southwest from the famous Olinda wells. Sergeant Ernest Norrish went down to Holtville last week on a visit to friends. He has been staying with his uncle, P. H. Krick, since his discharge from the army. Sergeant Norrish is still under treatment for a wound received in the Argonne. Samuel Kraemer, who was transacting business in town Monday, states that the four largest oil companies in California are now at work in the Placentia field. They are the Standard, Union, Santa Fe and Doheny. The Doheny company a few days ago signed a lease for the twenty-acre ranch of Rev. Frank Dowling. Anaheim people got to work an hour earlier Monday morning, but nobody appears to know why, and it is certain nobody favors the move. While the war was in progress the American people obeyed any order that came from Washington without stopping to question its wisdom, but the age now beginning to be more critical. A year ago, when the first order yanking them off the perch and shoving them to roost an hour earlier was issued, they were told that this was necessary to win the war, and they obeyed without question. But the war is won, and now indignant citizens are demanding the whys and wherefores of this second violation of the solar laws. Succumbing to injuries received on Friday morning, when he attempted to beat a westbound Pacific car to the crossing at Garden Grove, Earl O. Dougherty, Times and Examiner agent at that place, died at 1:20 p.m. Saturday at the Anaheim Sanatarium: Mr. Dougherty's head was badly crushed and an arm was broken in the crash that resulted when his automobile was struck squarely by the Pacific Electric car and demolished. The machine was dragged some distance down the track with the injured man entangled in the wreckage. He leaves a wife and three children. He was about thirty-five years of age and carried $500 life insurance. An inquest was held by Coroner Brown at Back Lieut. Godfrey Stock, who was granted month's leave of absence on account of the serious illness of his mother-in-law, came over from San Bernardino last week, accompanied by his wife, on a visit to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey Stock. This was his first visit to the old folks in two years. Lieut. Stock was with the army in France eight months and saw a considerable portion of the devastated portion of that land. He got no further into German territory than Metz. Instead of being discharged on his arrival in this country he was ordered to Washington and placed on duty in the office of the Chief Engineer. He will probably remain in the service. The Shea gents' furnishing establishment, which has been occupying one of the rooms in the Kistler building, has quit business. Mrs. Eva Boyd went up to Los Angeles Friday to attend graduating exercises at the State Normal. Her daughter, Miss Jessie Boyd, was one of the graduates. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Tausch and Mr. and Mrs. Al Nowotny visited Los Angeles Sunday. Will Webb telegraphed his parents that he has arrived in New York from France. He expects to be discharged soon. Anaheim Laundry wagon No. 3 was brought home on an ambulance Monday, having been badly crippled in a collision with a motorcycle on Placentia avenue. Neither driver Gurley nor the motorcyclist were injured, but both machines were considerably damaged. Frank Mauer is now sole owner of the Xchange Furniture Company, having purchased the interest of his partner, E. H. Heying. James W. Bishop, a merchant of Buena Park, is ready now for another effort to get his final peapers of naturalization. This time he will unodubtedly succeed. When he had a former hearing it developed that the witnesses called into court had not known him continuously for five years, as Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Davis and family, Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Leonard and family and Frank Davis went down to Long Beach Sunday and spent the day. Mrs. M. C. Goff, Mrs. C. L. Swope, Mrs. O. A. Mullinix and Mrs. Sam Newnes were in Los Angeles Tuesday, and visited Mrs. J. L. Swope at Hollywood. Mr. and Mrs. Ferd Heying and their sons motored down to Camp Kearny Sunday to welcome Dr. Oscar Heying back from France. Oscar went through on the hospital train from Los Angeles Saturday, and will probably soon be discharged from the service at Camp Kearny. Victor Browning of Brookshurst has just received a letter from his son Lieut. Harold Browning, of Washington, wherein he says he expects soon to receive his discharge and will then return home. Lieut. Browning is connected with the wireless service. He expected to be sent overseas but his superior officers decided to retain him here as instructor. Mrs. John W. Hart was in town from Los Angeles this week, accompanied by her daughter Mrs. Humphrey Marshall and the latters son, Humphrey Marshall junior. Mrs. Hart owns a tract of land on North Los Angeles street, which she considers ideal for park purposes, and which she may at some time in the future offer for sale to the city. She contemplates making a trip east later in the year and will spend some months visiting relatives. Three suits for divorce were filed here Saturday, as follows: Dora M. Hoskins against J. S. Hoskins, with Albert Launer of Fullerton as attorney for the plaintiff; Lena M. Booms against William F. Booms, with Head & Rutan as attorneys for the plaintiff; Maria Sepulveda against H. P. Sepulveda, with M. A. Cain, attorney for the plaintiff. Claude C. Young, John F. Lee and W. F. Feldner, all of Orange, have petitioned the superior court for the appointment of a guardian for Hank Schroeder.

John Slater of Malden avenue, near Amerige, died suddenly Tuesday afternoon at the wheel of his automobile while returning from the Mission Play at San Gabriel. Mr. and Mrs. Slater and grand-daughter, Edith Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. Will Fridd and daughter, Jennie Fridd, Mrs. John F. Fridd, Mrs. Jennie Walker and Dr. and Mrs. Walbridge formed a party and motored over in two cars to see the Mission Play. On the return, when about four or five miles out of San Gabriel, Dr. Walbridge, who was occupying the front seat of Slater's car with Slater, who was driving, noticed Slater sink into unconsciousness and he grabbed the seetring wheel and stopped the car. On examination it was found that Slater had passed away, dying of heart failure. Mr. and Mrs. Slater and grand-daughter motored here from Berlin, Wisconsin, the first of last November, and remained in Fullerton to be near their old neighbors, the Fridds and Ruddocks. Slater was in the drug business in Berlin for 37 years. He was 59 years of age. The body was brought to the parlors of Angus McAulay, where it will be prepared for shipment to Berlin on Saturday, and will be accompanied by the widow, the grand-daughter and Mrs. Lila Ruddock. James W. Bishop, a merchant of Buena Park, is ready now for another effort to get his final peapers of naturalization. This time he will unodubtedly succeed. When he had a former hearing it developed that the witnesses called into court had not known him continuously for five years, as witnesses must do who appear with an alien asking for citizenship. This time his witnesses are George O. Trapp and C. L. McComber, both of Buena Park. Bishop was born in Canada in 1887 and came to this country in 1901. Miss Dorothy Yungbluth celebrated her tenth birthday on Monday afternoon at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. A.

The canning industry has increased the acreage enormously until it reached its height last year. Due to the exceptionally high prices obtained last year, too, there will apparently be a considerable increase this year even over the extensive acreage of 1918. The California To Friday, April 4 another BIG ECONOMY DAY For particulars as to prices see the windows Falkenstein's Department Store mato Growers' Association, through its recently established Los Angeles office, is endeavoring to increase the percentage of growers belonging to the association over that of last year when some 75 per cent were members. Practically 100 per cent of the Japanese growers are members of the organization. The canneries take care of far the largest percentage of the crop, being able to use products which would not be readily salable on the open market. There is quite a demand on the open market for early stuff and the later fall crops, both of which bring a good price, while during the main growing season the price is controlled very largely by the price the canneries pay. The average yield that may be expected in growing tomatoes for the cannery is about ten tons per acre, while, under favorable conditions and with good care, yields of from fifteen to twenty tons are not unusual. The average yield obtained when producing tomatoes for the fresh market is usually a little higher than when they are grown for the cannery, which is probably due to the better care which they receive. The cost of production varies a great deal in different localities and under different conditions. In producing for the canneries, the cost may vary from $30 to $50, or even $60 per acre, an average being $45 to $50. The cost of raising for the fresh market will probably range $5 to $10 more per acre than when the crop is grown for the cannery. The prices received for the product vary a great deal. The canneries usually set a price which holds throughout the growing season, while in growing for the open market, the price may vary from $10 to $12 up to $50 or even $60 in some cases. If the grower is able to produce the fruit ever, there is an excellent opportunity to obtain extraordinary prices for the early crop. The same conditions hold true where one is able to grow the crop late in the fall without danger of early frosts. The moisture requirements of the tomato are moderate, but to obtain the optimum growth, there should be a sufficient supply throughout the season. During the hot weather, the plants must necessarily be irrigated often. Light irrigation are preferable to heavy ones, which, of course, necessitates the practice of irrigating more often. The plants are easily damaged by excessive moisture and it is safer to have a slightly insufficient amount rather than too much. There are several insect pests attacking the tomato. The flea beetle is sometimes troublesome and may be controlled by spraying with Bordeaux mixture, but this is merely a repellent and if more stringent measures are desired, two pounds of lead arsenic powder may be added to fifty gallons of Bordeaux. Lead arsenic should not be used, however, near the time when the fruits are to be picked, as it is an active poison. The tomato worm and the corn ear worm often cause considerable damage by feeding upon the vines and attacking the fruits, making them unsalable. They may be controlled somewhat by the above suggested method of Bordeaux with lead arsenic, or may be poisoned bait. The bait may be made up of two pound of white arsenic, twenty pounds of bran, two quarts of molasses and enough water to make a thick dough. This bait can be scattered broadcast around the base of the plants. This method should not be used where chickens or any kind of animals are liable to pick it up. A trap crop of corn is often used quite successfully, putting in a hill of corn here and When in Need of Job Printing call at the Gazette Office The cultural requirements for tomatoes are similar to those for other crops of the same general nature. They will grow on a rather wide variety of soil, but are best adapted to a light sandy loam. The particular requirements vary somewhat with the conditions under which the crop is to be grown. Tomatoes will grow and do well on ordinary soils better than most other vegetables, in fact, if the soil is too rich, especially in nitrogen or moisture, the growth of the plants will go to a luxuriant vine at the expense of fruit. If the soil is deficient in plant food, the growth of the plant will, of course be stunted. Good tomato soil should be fairly light and underlaid with a heavier stratum at from three to five feet. It should also be well drained, but should hold enough moisture to take care of the plant even in the hottest weather throughout the growing season. The tomato is easily injured by cold but will endure high temperatures quite well. There are about 400 acres of tomatoes now being grown near San Pedro which have been in the field for several weeks. This is rather unusual, of course, and it is only possible under frostless conditions. Where these conditions are to be found, how-
