Anaheim Teacher Becomes a Bride Miss Edna Mills United in Marriage to Floyd Curtis Saturday Evening. — Young Couple Will Reside in San Diego on Return from Wedding Tour. Miss Edna Mills, one of the teachers in the Fremont school during the past year, was united in marriage Saturday evening to Floyd E. Curtis. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Mills, and the wedding took place at the family residence, corner Los Angeles and North streets. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Curtis of East Center street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. N. M. Sutherland of Santa Monica, formerly pastor of the M. E. church of this city, and was witnessed by a large number of friends, many of them from out of town. Miss Erma Mills, sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid, while the groom was supported by Lyman Davis of Placentia. Clarence Curtis, brother of the groom, and Cecil Hollingsworth of Los Angeles, acted as ushers, and appropriate music was furnished by Miss Laura Thomas of San Pedro, Miss Ethel Lee of Hoytsville, Utah, Miss Erma Mills and Miss Myrtle Hein. Miss Thomas played the wedding march as the bridal party entered the room where the ceremony was performed. After a reception and wedding supper the young couple left on a short honeymoon tour. They will reside at San Pedro on their return. Looking for Oil FODD PRICES UPHELD FOR THE BIG PACKERS Fess Suggests That 280,000,000 Pounds of Meat Products be Placed on Market. Vigorous protest against the withholding of 280,000,000 pound of meat products by the War Department in order to uphold the current prices of the packers has been voiced in the House by Representative Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio. In reciting the facts he said: "The government is now holding 120,000,000 pounds of roast beef in cans, 85,000,000 pounds of corn beef hash in cans and 50,000,000 pounds of bacon in cans. The explanation of the War Department is that to release it to the people would cause a break in prices. It is stated that this vast amount of food in cans represent five months of intense active production, which, under any other conditions than those of war, would mean two years of production. "I know of no disaster that would follow the lowering of food prices to the people at a time when they are carrying many burdens of taxation and when a great number are out of employment. The destruction of prices current should not be avoided when prices are as high as now. This is the plea of a committee representing the packers and I do not believe in it. In the face of abundant production, it cannot with reason be contended that there is a scarcity of production. Therefore the law of supply and demand should not be retarded and obstructed by the Secretary of War, but should be allowed free reign so as to benefit all the people of the country. That vast amount of food should be thrown upon the..." and Miss Myrtle Hein. Miss Thomas played the wedding march as the bridal party entered the room where the ceremony was performed. After a reception and wedding supper the young couple left on a short honeymoon tour. They will reside at San Pedro on their return. Looking for Oil In New Fields Prospectors to Begin Search for "Liquid Gold" July 1. Development of a new oil producing field in the extreme southern part of Orange county is anticipated from drilling operations which are scheduled to start July 1 on the W. K. Robinson ranch on the Trabuca mesa. Robinson has leased 540 acres for oil drilling purposes to A. H. Paterson and Ed Tedford of Santa Ana and Frank Hollyland, well-known oil prospector who lives there who plan to make a thorough test for oil in this new region, which is thirty miles from the Fullerton oil field. Holleyland has been prospecting and making observations of oil conditions in Orange county for the last five years and feels confident that the proposed drilling in the Trabuca region will open up a new oil territory and natural gas supply. Two other geologists have inspected the Robinson ranch and each declared that indications for a profitable oil supply are most favorable. Oil men are also looking for interesting developments in the Irvine hills and on the Newport Mesa, where oil-drilling operations have been under way for several months. It is currently reported that P. A. Stanton has leased 200 acres in the Brookhurst neighborhood, west of Anaheim, to the Standard and that it will sink a wildcat well in the near future. Many people believe there is a large lake of oil under Orange county which has barely been tapped, and predict wonderful development in the next few years. UNCLE SAM TO GET HIS MILLIONS BACK Uncle Sam, the rich uncle who went about with checkbook in hand, advancing money to nations right and left during the war, will not be written when prices are as high as now. This is the plea of a committee representing the packers and I do not believe in it. In the face of abundant production, it cannot with reason be contended that there is a scarcity of production. Therefore the law of supply and demand should not be retarded and obstructed by the Secretary of War, but should be allowed free reign so as to benefit all the people of the country. That vast amount of food should be thrown upon the market, now that peace is here, and should be permitted to take its chance with the other output of the packers. "We have the same situation with regard to wheat. With a greater yield than ever before the government has decreed that the price to be paid for it shall be fixed at $2.26 per bushel. This is done in order that the original fixing of prices current for wheat may be upheld as against the discrimination in favor of cotton which was regulated only by the law of supply and demand. The government should take over the wheat at the contract price, put it on the market at the rate which supply and demand would name, in order that the consumer may have cheaper flour and bread, and then charge off the difference to war loss. All of this complication comes from governmental tinkering with normal economic conditions. So far as the prices of products are concerned, the people are better off without such interference, for the reason that they thereby have in the long run to pap a greater bill." ANOTHER EXTENSION OF TIME At the request of many California cities and towns, the campaign of the Yosemite Valley Highway Association to raise $1,000,000 to guarantee the construction of a paved, year-round highway from Merced to Yosemite National Park has been extended still another week. The campaign was to have closed Saturday, June 14. It will continue until June 21. State Chairman Rudolph Spreckels announced today that the drive is increasing in momentum in all sections of California. Campaign leaders everywhere feel that the entire issue of 200,000 five dollar certificates of motor vehicle admission to Yosemite will be sold during the next week. The California Good Roads Campaign UNCLE SAM TO GET HIS MILLIONS BACK Uncle Sam, the rich uncle who went about with checkbook in hand, advancing money to nations right and left during the war, will not have to write off these loans as bad debts. He expects to get the money back. This announcement was recently made by no less a person than President Wilson, and, singularly enough, not a line of comment has been printed about it. It becomes all the more important because every once in a while some patriot who is more pro-British or French or what not than he is pro-American fervidly proposes, at some banquet, that America shall forgive all the allies their debts to us, little thinking what this would mean in the way of taxation burdens on the people of America. The president, in his cabled message to congress, however, dispelled all this. He said: "These obligations are not so great as they seem, not so great as the immense sums we have had to borrow, added to the immense sums we have had to raise by taxation, would seem to indicate; for a very large proportion of those sums, were raised in order that they might be loaned to the governments with which we were associated in the war, and those loans will, of course, constitute assets, not liabilities, and will not have to be taken care of by our taxpayers." State Chairman Rudolph Spreckels announced today that the drive is increasing in momentum in all sections of California. Campaign leaders everywhere feel that the entire issue of 200,000 five dollar certificates of motor vehicle admission to Yosemite will be sold during the next week. The California Good Roads Campaign Committee, of which L. A. Nares is chairman, is co-operating in the Yosemite Highway drive. Nares declared that the two drives, one for the sale of certificates and the other for votes for the $40,000,000 highway bond issue, are co-related and should be supported by all who have at heart California's future greatness. Work on the Yosemite highway will be undertaken this summer if the $1,000,000 needed is raised through the present campaign. The State Highway Commission, the constructing agency, contemplates the employment of several hundred returned fighting men on the roadway. The $5 certificates are good for motor vehicle entry and re-entry to Yosemite during any one season in the next 10 years. The entry slips are on sale at all offices of the automobile associations (north and south) by all chambers of commerce and by leading hotels, stores and automobile dealers. It is reported that P. A. Stanton has leased more than 200 acres in the Brookhurst neighborhood to the Standard Oil Company and that the Standard will put down a wildcat well immediately. And They Say The health officer is after the unclean backyard with a determination that augurs well for abatement of the fly nuisance. It is said the pesky fly is the scavenger of the air, and you must not swat him, but deal a solar plexus to dirt heaps where he comes to life and proceeds to become an everyday nuisance. It might be well to keep up the swatting and also lend an attentive ear to the commands of the health officer and clean up. Pigs are pigs these times, and where a man keeps one or two to help reduce the high cost of living, it may swell his bank account, but his neighbors kick. The only solution to the problem is to move the pigs out in the country, or everybody go into the pig business and then nobody could say the other fellow kept a fly breeding resort. A city employee says it's a fright the way some contractors are cutting lumber and joists to permit of the electrical wire installations in some of the new structures now in course of construction. This practice, it is said, is very dangerous, being a fire menace. Many citizens insist the city should have a building inspector. The street superintendent was just about ready to use some harsh language the other day, for just as he had finished applying a fine coating of oil to a dirt road, and had set up proper barriers to keep off trespassers, a bone-head truck driver ups and drives through the fence and all the way up the street, picking up great chunks of the soft black mush upon his wheels and carrying it over on the pavement of a nearby thoroughfare. The street MEMORIAL TREES In many parts of the country, memorial trees are being planted by the victory gardeners wherever room can be found on their plots. The gardeners are taking this means, reports to the American Forestry Association of Washington, D.C., show, of marking the place where the soldiers of the soil worked in the home trenches. First reports to the association show that in almost every instance fruit or nut bearing trees will be planted in garden plots. The victory gardeners are alive to the value of food close to the point of consumption, and thus, the American Forestry Association points out, the plot will be marked and a food producing lesson will be taught at the same time for there is, in most every case, room for a tree in a back yard. Memorial trees have been planted at Camp Dix, N.J., by MaJ. Gen. Hugh L. Scott. It was at Camp Dix that the national war garden commission had the biggest camp garden in the country. Many business concerns are planting memorial trees in honor of tiehr workers who went forth to the great adventure regardless of whether the worker lost his life or not. In many instances the trees will be planted in the gardens where the home folks worked to answer Pershing's call to "keep the food coming" to those boys who left their work to answer the call of humanity. All these tree plantings should be reported to the American Forestry Association for registration. Cities are being made over in keeping with memorial group plans and the smallest town is planting one or more memorial trees, reports to the American Forestry Association show.

Two townsmen met up the other morning, and after passing the time of day and vouchsafing the information that warm weather has set in, one allowed the trustees were rapidly taking on that Carnegie feeling, as he had lamped in one paper that $2000 had been harpooned by a financial soliciting committee sent out to seek a supply of mazuma for the current year's advertising fund. Just think of it—two—thousand—dollars." Said the other: "I guess that's a mistake—they put on too many cliphers. It was only $200." "Oh, well that's different. Have a cigar?" When the trustees were taking a fall out of the unfounded report anent the gubernatorial intercity enabling act veto—and when the utmost solemnity pervaded the room, likened to the period of quietness when the proverbial pin dropped—one member observed that the author of the report had a dream, whereupon the attorney entered a demurrer and gave it as his belief that the author from all accounts has had quite a number of dreams. From all accounts many well meaning citizens have contracted the oil fever and the sinking of a new well now causes but the faintest flutter in the business world. Of course, when a gusher is struck every one for miles around lears about it, but you seldom hear of the unfortunate ventures, unless its in the nature of an assessment, should you have happened to get in on the ground floor.

At the annual meeting of the American Beet Sugar Co., H. Rieman Duval, president of the company, said in part: "We expect to make 30 per cent more sugar the coming campaign than the last one, in spite of recent unfavorable weather conditions in California, where the beet crop has suffered to some extent from lack of sufficient rain and fog. We depend on the fogs as well as the rains to provide moisture for the crops. "There is no particular reason to sunpose that price of sugar will be lower and it may be higher. If that is the case, next season's operations should be much more profitable. In fact, considering the adverse conditions, the results obtained last campaign were satisfactory. "In Colorado we shall start operations about the same time as last year and we shall probably run the Las Animas factory. In California we shall be about a month late." Mr. Duval was asked whether there are gardens where the home loans worked to answer Pershing's call to "keep the food coming" to those boys who left their work to answer the call of humanity. All these tree plantings should be reported to the American Forestry Association for registration. Cities are being made over in keeping with memorial group plans and the smallest town is planting one or more memorial trees, reports to the American Forestry Association show. In thousands of places schools are planting in honor of former students. Millions of dollars have been voted for good roads work in the various states and hand in hand with that work goes the beautification of these roadways. A Pershing Highway Association and a Roosevelt Memorial Highway Association have both been incorporated and plans are going forward for the planting of memorial trees in honor of the former president. Many of those have been planted and are being registered in the nation honor roll with the American Forestry Association, which has a nation-wide campaign on for the reforesting of the devastated areas of France and Belgium. BEET SUGAR CROP IS THIRTY PER CENT MORE California Crop About Month Late, Says President Duval. At the annual meeting of the American Beet Sugar Co., H. Rieman Duval, president of the company, said in part: "We expect to make 30 per cent more sugar the coming campaign than the last one, in spite of recent unfavorable weather conditions in California, where the beet crop has suffered to some extent from lack of sufficient rain and fog.

DOINGS OF THE SUPERVISORS The County Auditor was directed by the Supervisors Wednesday to draw warrants for rental of polling places, services on election boards, bringing in returns and for registration of voters, in accordance with certified list presented by the County Clerk. The County Clerk was ordered to give notice of the sale at public auction at the south front door of the Court House on July 2, 1919, at 11 a.m. of Lot 5, Forrester's and Smith's Subdivision of the Yarnell Tract, adjoin ingthe City of Orange. The Couty Clerk was ordered to give notice of the attention of the Board to purchase the North 90 feet of South 247 feet of Block B, of the Longfellow Tract, Orange, said purchase to be made on July 15, 1919, at 11 a.m. from Griffith Lumber Company for the sum of $1300.00. The Purchasing Agent was authorized to purchase a Moreland auto truck for the use of the Forestry Department for the sum of $2755.00, the old auto truck to be credited on said purchase at $662.50. The resignation of J. H. Murrillo, constable of Los Alamitos township, was accepted. The appointment of Walter Eden, as Deputy Registrar of Titles, was approved by the board, and his compensation was fixed at $75.00 per month. Permission was given to fish in the lake at the County Park on the second and fourth Saturdays of each and every month between hours of four o'clock, p. m. and seven o'clock, p. m. of said Saturdays commencing July 12, 1919, up to September 27, 1919, inclusive limit five pounds and not more.

By holding your ear to the listening post you may now discern that things are again normal and quietness prevails in one of the city's environs. Did some one rock the boat? The question was then asked if the holdings of American Beet Sugar Co. amounting to 27,380 acres, of which more than 6,100 acres are in California, had not appreciated greatly in value, since they were acquired by the company. He answered that the value of the land was in its power to produce, and appreciation in the value of the lands was reflected in the earnings of the company. He said that it would cost much more to buy these lands now than when they were acquired. Mr. Duval said that they were on excellent terms with the farmers, and pointed out that they were paying $10 a ton flat in Colorado against $8 for beets of 16 per cent sugar content previously. In California beets are now purchased on a sliding scale varying according to sugar content and price of refined sugar. American Beet Sugar Co. has erected adobe houses for the accommodation The appointment of Walter Eden, as Deputy Registrar of Titles, was approved by the board, and his compensation was fixed at $75.00 per month. Permission was given to fish in the lake at the County Park on the second and fourth Saturdays of each and every month between the hours of four o'clock, p.m. and seven o'clock, p.m. of said Saturdays commencing July 12, 1919, up to September 27, 1919, inclusive, limit five pounds, and not exceeding ten fish per person. The map of Tract No. 88, was accepted as the official plotting of said tract. The County Clerk was ordered to give notice in the Anaheim Gazette, of the sale of $116,000 Anaheim School District bonds, said bonds to be sold on July 15, 1919, at 11 a.m. A franchise to operate a pipe line system was sold to the Central Pipe Line Company of California for $200, conditioned that the said company execute a bond for $1000 in favor of said County of Orange, and that said company files its written acceptance of said franchise, with the time required by law, the ordinance granting the said franchise to be adopted June 17, 1919. BLACKEYE BEAN POOL Within the next day or two blackeye beans will be offered for sale by the blackeye pool, and the price will be fixed at 4.50 per pound. This decision was reached Saturday afternoon by W. C. Jerome, W. J. Cheney and John Osterman, the directors of the recently organized pool. These men gave the blackeyes in the Health Insurance One of the distinctive qualities of food baked with Royal Baking Powder is wholesomeness. This is health insurance of such vital importance that millions of women bake at home just to be sure that Royal Baking Powder is used.

There is an exceptional lot of fine beans on hand, and they will be offered to the market as guaranteed re-cleaned beans of first quality. Since last fall blackeyes had been a drug on the market. Some of the growers have sold blackeye beans for as low as 2.50 cents. The fact that the pool was being organized and that it controls practically all of the first class blackepes left on the coast, strengthened the price of blackeyes so that now the market price is considered better than four cents a pound. The directors of the pool, all of them well known Orange county bean growers, have made plans to get the best possible prices for the beans they represent. They have come into close touch with the market, and are satisfied that while opening at 4.50 cents, the price is bound to go higher, since they, with the control of the available first-class beans, can give buyers an assurance of stability. BEGINS DAMAGE SUIT Trial of an action whereby Mrs. Ella C. Young of La Habra, widow of Eugene Young, and two children, Francis and Elizabeth Evelyn Young, seek to recover $70,000 damages from Benjamin W. (Walking) Elliott, began in the Superior court before Judge R. Y. Williams and a jury Monday. The impaneling of a jury was the principal business the first day. It is expected the trial will last from two to three daps. On April 10, 1918, Eugene Young a blacksmith, was one of several men who entered a house at La Habra occupied by Elliott, alleged Liberty Loan slacker. Elliott fired, and Young fell, mortally wounded, dying on May 5. Elliott was arrested, tried and con- plans definitely completed and just announced by the Balboa Carnival Association.

Ford of Los Angeles, asking $35,000 damages for herself and $17,500 for each of her children. Mrs. Young's complaint alleged that her husband lawfully entered a certain rooming house at La Habra, and that without provocation Elliott wilfully and fenoniously fired, mortally wounding Young. A general denial of the charges was made bp defendant in an answer filed by Attorney Clyde Bishop on November 14. Mrs. Young and two children were in court today as the trial opened. Elliott is in prison and cannot be brought here for trial of this civil action against him, but his deposition was taken and will be introduced. HARBOR CELEBRATION The general rejoicing over approval of the $500,000 Orange county harbor bonds last Tuesday is to be crystalized into a county harbor bond celebration at Balboa Saturday afternoon and evening, June 21, according to their intention to engage local labor, but found themselves unable to secure the requisite number of men here.

The new minimum wage law for women will soon take effect. Soap and other supplies continue at war prices, with a tendency to go higher. With these advances, prices here are still as low as any place in the United States, and local laundries will endeavor to maintain low-prices consistent with paying help fair wages and a fair margin to themselves.
