CYPRESS DRAINAGE DISTRICT HEARING JULY 20 Supervisors Authorize Issuance of Katella School District Bonds A petition for the organization of a drainage district to be known as the Cypress Drainage District was presented and filed by the supervisors. The hearing day was set for July 20 at 10 a.m. The application of the Petroleum Midway company for a three-inch water line, and a three-inch gas line, as per petitions on file, were granted; also to construct a line of telephone poles and wires in this county. The board ordered that the franchise applied for by the Petroleum Midway company be advertised for sale and that notice of said sale be prepared and submitted to said board at the regular meeting on July 13 at 10 a.m. It was ordered that the county allow demands up to $375 for social service in and of the indigent, sick and dependent poor of Orange county, payable out of the hospital fund. The chairman and county auditor were authorized to execute bonds of the Katella school district and the county clerk was authorized to counter sign same and affix seal of board of supervisors thereto and deliver same to county treasurer for safe keeping. It was ordered that the board accept the bid of the Bank of Italy of San Francisco for par and accrued interest to date of delivery for $40,000 Laurel school district six per cent bonds. Legal opinion to be furnished them without cost. The petition of M. J. Pickering, et al., to vacate and abandon a portion of certain public streets and alleys good foot bath for Mr. and Mrs. Fly. When this bath solution is in turn consumed by a person illness often results. Upon investigation it is oftentimes found that the fly has first visited the ordinary fly resort—the old fashioned privy—which has been a disease germ depository of persons affected with typhoid (and still carriers) dysentery. Not only around the milk pitcher is the fly a menace, but the dairies also come in for their share of dangerous annoyance. The milk cans, especially being frequently visited. All other conditions in and about the dairy may be faultless with the exception of the fly nuisance. In order to produce clean milk there are some factors to be observed. In the first place the dairyman should realize the great responsibility toward the public for which he supplies milk; secondly, sanitary toilets are most essential, and also it is wise for those who handle milk to have certificate of health from reputable or duly authorized physicians, and such a certificate to be frequently renewed; lastly, cleanliness in the way of sterilization of equipment, etc. Clean, wholesome milk from healthy cows, properly tested, makes the world a safe place for the nation's greatest asset—health.

Kidney Trouble May Be Sapping Your Life Away. Anaheim People Have Learned This Fact When a healthy man or woman begins to run down without apparent cause, becomes weak, languid, depressed, suffers backache, headache, dizzy spells and urinary disorders, weak kidneys may be the cause. The slightest symptom of kidney trouble is too serious to neglect. Doan's Kidney Pills have earned their fame by their effectiveness in strengthening the kidneys and keeping them well. Ask your neighbor: Here is Anaheim tea PHONE SUIT DELAYED BY LACK OF FUNDS Answer to Complaint Ready, But Directors Must Have Money With the answer to the complaint in the suit brought to a halt, the activities o fthe Orange County Farmers and Merchants association in its contemplated plans of installing a mutual phone system in this county ready to be filed, the directors of the association find themselves blocked in filing the answer through a lack of funds. It takes money to carry legal contests through the courts and the association attorneys and directors do not want to undertake the court proceedings until there is sufficient money on hand to carryry the case through to a final determination. Head & Rutan and Walter Dunn, city attorney of Monrovia, are the attorneys for the association. A meeting was held Tuesday afternoon at which it was disclosed that the long anticipated answer was ready for filing and then, the financial status of the association bobbed up to cause further delay in the proceedings. Some weeks ago money was called for and the estimated amount was pro-rated among the exchanges of the county on the basis of the number of telephone subscribers in the operating exchanges. Some of the exchange districts have raised their quotas and others have not. Santa Ana is one of the communities that is shy. Organization of the association is under a law that provides for mutual associations of the type of the citrus and walnut organizations and not under a law which provides for the establishment of telegraph companies, and before the association goes too far in carrying out its plans it is desired to get a court decision. A temporary mutual line of the association is in operation at Garden Grove and is holding the franchise granted by the county. It is believed by those who are active in the movement for the county-wide mutual system that a plant can be installed and operated at a great deal less per phone than is charged by the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company at this time, with free switching throughout the county.

When a healthy man or woman begins to run down without apparent cause, becomes weak, languid, depressed, suffers backache, headache, dizzy spells and urinary disorders, weak kidneys may be the cause. The slightest symptom of kidney trouble is too serious to neglect. Doan's Kidney Pills have earned their fame by their effectiveness in strengthening the kidneys and keeping them well. Ask your neighbor! Here is Anaheim testimony to prove their worth. Mrs. F. P. Burdick, 400 S. Olive St., Anaheim, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills have done me a lot of good and I can not say too much for them. My kidneys were in a bad fix. I couldn't rest at night and got up in the morning feeling tired out. I had no energy and my back ache considerably. My kidneys were weak and I was greatly bothered on that account. I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills helping others and used them as directed. They soon put my kidneys in good order. I felt like a different person and was free from backaches." Price 60c at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Burdick had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y. THE FLY AND THE MILK PAIL The affinity of the fly for the family milk pitcher is a source of serious trouble to mankind. As a food contamination it plays one of its most important roles in the transmission of disease, especially typhoid and dysentery. The fly has a most acute instinct or sense of smell and is attracted to very dilute milk. Thus the contents of a milk pitcher serve as a temporary mutual line of the association is in operation at Garden Grove and is holding the franchise granted by the county. It is believed by those who are active in the movement for the county-wide mutual system that a plant can be installed and operated at a great deal less per phone than is charged by the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company at this time, with free switching throughout the county. AUCTION OF STATE SCRIPT Surveyor General W. S. Kingsbury will hold a public auction sale of scrip in the senate chamber at the state capitol, Sacramento, on Tuesday, July 6, at 10 a.m. State scrip is the cheapest land scrip on the market today. Said scrip can only be purchased by citizens of the United States who are residents of the state of California and can be located on any vacant non-mineral government land in California. State scrip is not transferable. No purchaser can buy more than 640 acres of scrip. Scrip is sold in forty-acre lots for cash, personal check received, and the surrender of the scrip is payment for an equal acreage of government land. At the last auction sale of scrip the prices received averaged approximately $8 per acre. Homestead and desert land entrymen can relinquish their entries through the surveyor general and acquire title to the land through the purchase of scrip. The applicant need not live on or improve the land. All money received from the sale of state scrip goes to the support of the public schools of the state.

Anaheim Gazette payable in advanc GRANTS INCREASED RATES In granting an increase in rates of 27 per cent to the Southern California Edison company, the California hallroad commission takes a broad view when it says: "It is vitally necessary for the continued growth and prosperity of the vast territory supplied by applicant with electric energy, that its full program of development go forward without serious interruption. It is in the best interest of consumers that they pay rates sufficiently reasonable to enable the company to earn a fair and reasonable return upon the actual investment. Unless this is done it is plain that the utility cannot borrow sufficient funds to carry forward necessary developments." It is becoming increasingly evident that the business life of a community is in a very large measure dependent for its growth and expansion, and, in some instances, even its continued operation upon electric energy; and as the cost of steam generation is constantly increasing, the necessity for cheaper production of electricity by hydroelectric development has become more and more recognized. "Of course, it is not to be understood that the railroad commission urges the payment of unreasonable rates to stimulate investment in this public utility; but when it is considered that to place this company in a position where it can successfully finance will not result at this time in even an 8 per cent return on investment it will at once be realized that the burden upon the consumer is not unreasonable." UNITED STATES TRADE BALANCE WHY WORRY ABOUT SUGAR? MAKE THIS HONEY CAKE Honey cakes have the advantage over other cakes of keeping much longer. The following one, which is excellent, is recommended by food specialists of the United States department of agriculture: 1 cup butter. 1 cup honey. 1 egg. 1 cup sour milk. 1 teaspoon soda. 1 teaspoon cinnamon. 1 teaspoon ginger. 4 cups flour. Rub the butter and honey together; add the egg well beaten then the sour milk and the flour sifted with the soda and spices. Bake in a shallow pan.

Any stock upon which this assessment shall remain unpaid on July 15th, 1920 will be delinquent and advertised for sale at public auction, and unless payment is made before will be sold on August 5th, 1920, to pay the delinquent assessments, together with the cost of advertising and expense of sale. DAN. V. NOLAND. UNITED STATES TRADE BALANCE Although the value of exports to Europe fell off $100,000,000 in April, the nation's trade balance against the Old World was increased $254,000,000. The total value of exports, the department of commerce announced last week, was $365,000,000, as compared with imports of approximately $111,000,000. Asia and South America, however, continued to pile up a favorable balance against the United States, imports from Asia of $122,000,000 exceeding exports by $35,000,000, while imports of $76,000,000 from South America were $29,000,000 greater than exports from this country. North American trade for the month, amounting to $152,000,000 in exports and $146,000,000 in imports, showed little variation from March. The greatest reduction in exports was to the United Kingdom, the total of $133,000,000 falling $88,000,000 short of the March figure, while imports from that country, amounting to $52,000,000, dropped about $88,000,000. Exports to France amounted to $57,000,000, a decrease of $13,000,000, against a decline of about $2,000,000 in imports. Shipments to Italy were valued at $43,000,000, a decrease of about $6,000,000, while imports from that country closely approximated the $7,000,000 for March. Exports to Germany, showing the only increase of all the European countries, advanced to $23,000,000 from $20,000,000 in March. FARMERS GROWING SORGHUM A marked increase in the production of sorghum syrup is indicated by reports received by the United States department of agriculture, which has been engaged in a special campaign to induce greater production of this crop because of the keen demand for sugar substitutes. At the beginning of the World war the annual yield of sorghum syrup in the United States public utility; but when it is considered that to place this company in a position where it can successfully finance will not result at this time in even an 8 per cent return on investment it will at once be realized that the burden upon the consumer is not unreasonable." MAKE AMERICA PAY The underlying purpose of the league of nations was to fasten upon the United States the cost and responsibility of maintaining the new geographical lines in Europe as delineated by the Versailles treaty, and practically to compel Germany to live up to her obligations in that undertaking, including the payment of huge indemnities to the allies. The United States senate refused to make this country a party to any such arrangement, and with its refusal went the hopes of Europe that its troubles could be conveniently unloaded upon America. Put the European scheme for the exploitation of American resources and man-power by no means was abandoned when the president's failure to coerce the senate became apparent. On the contrary, fertile minds in England and France cast about for other means by which to shift the burdens of the Old World upon the United States. The Englishman, Keyce, wrote a book in which he boldly stated that the sole solution of European economic difficulties was the cancellation of the $10,000,000,000 debt owed by those countries to the United States. The proposal was received with contempt on this side of the water, and it became necessary to find another solution less likely to arouse American opposition. Thereupon a financial conference was called to meet at Hythe in England, and the whole question of German indemnity and allied debts was gone over. It was recognized that Germany can make little progress now in furnishing cash reparation, so it was suggested that German bonds be distributed in the proportion of indemnity allotment. France was to get about 55 per cent, England 25 per cent, and Belgium and other countries a less amount. With the bonds in hand there was to be a general exchange, according to the debts owed by one country to another, and England, France, and Belgium would all said Corporation at 434 Merchants National Bank Building, Los Angeles, California. Any stock upon which this assessment shall remain unpaid on July 15th, 1920 will be delinquent and advertised for sale at public auction, and unless payment is made before will be sold on August 5th, 1920, to pay the delinquent assessments, together with the cost of advertising and expense of sale.

Ames,Esq., attorney for said guardian.at No. 133 West Center Street,在the City of Anaheim,County of Orange,State of California,或 may be delivered A marked increase in the production of sorghum sirup is indicated by reports received by the United States department of agriculture, which has been engaged in a special campaign to induce greater production of this crop because of the keen demand for sugar substitutes. At the beginning of the World war the annual yield of sorghum sirup in the United States was approximately 13,000,000 gallons. This has increased steadily until for the past year it was approximately 30,000,000 gallons. The average yield of sirup per acre has been about 100 gallons, but the fact that this figure can be increased is indicated by the department's experiments, in which more than 400 gallons per acre have been produced in some localities. In urging increased plantings to sorghum the department's experts point out that despite the increasing yields the demand is still greater than the supply, as shown by the price for sirup, which has ranged from 90 cents to $1.50 per gallon, and in a few cases even higher. There are abundant opportunities for increasing the sorghum production, the experts say, since this crop can be grown in every state in the union with the possible exception of Maine. In the northern states it is necessary to plant early-maturing varieties of sorghum. "Early Amber" and "Folgers" are among the varieties recommended by the department, which is prepared to supply inquirers with full information regarding the cultivation of this profitable plant. Ansaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance. Germany can make little progress now in furnishing cash reparation, so it was suggested that German bonds be distributed in the proportion of indemnity allotment. France was to get about 55 per cent, England 25 per cent, and Belgium and other countries a less amount. With the bonds in hand there was to be a general exchange, according to the debts owed by one country to another, and England, France, and Belgium would all turn over to the United States German bonds in amounts equal to the sums owed by those nations to us. The outcome would find the United States looking to Germany for the payment of about $10,000,000,000 and as much interested in forcing that country to live up to its obligations as if we had signed the league of nations covenant. In all likelihood we would have the alternative in the future of going to war again with Germany or losing the entire amount. In the meantime, of course, the allies would be free of their financial obligations to us. The proposed Armenian mandate was another scheme, contrived by the same forces that controlled the Hythe conference, to put upon the United States responsibilities subsequently the same as those contained in the league covenant. Under it we would have furnished an army of unknown proportions and at huge cost, but of sufficient size and sufficiently supplied to put down the Turks and bolsheviks which are at this moment surrounding Armenia and harassing its people. Mandates are an invention of the league of nations, and countries accepting them must make reports to the league and be subject to its control. Hence, in accepting an Armenian man-up delivery of deed; the purchaser to assume the payment of and take the property purchased by him subject to all State, County and City taxes, and all assessments of whatsoever nature, which are now or may become hereafter chargeable as a lien against the property purchased by him. All bids or offers must be in writing and may be left at the office of H. G.

Everything that emanates nowadays from European diplomatic circles is in one form or another an attempt to draw the United States into a sharing of war burdens now borne by Old World countries. Not content with the billions of money and tens of thousands of precious American lives that were expended in saving Europe from the Hun scourge, they now would unload more of their troubles upon us. Through their agent in our own White House, who seems to readily accept every un-American scheme submitted to him, they seek to lay their hands on billions of American wealth and untold numbers of American lives.
