White, local fruit grower, who has fenced in a large flock of Anconas to fertilize his grove. "With lemons at present prices, failing to return a profit," says White, "growers are inclined to neglect their groves, with the ever-present danger that they will become stunted and infested with pests. This should never happen. The chickens can foot a large portion of the expense of upkeep of the groves while they are furnishing fertilizer for the trees." As a means of achieving the Presidency of the United States mudsling is going to be considered, after this campaign, more impossible than ever. A great drainage district, which will make arable 8000 acres of land now either too alkaline to raise profitable crops or flooded during the rainy season, is being formed by men of the Cypress section, who have petitioned the County Supervisors to create a drainage district, assessing the cost of the improvement against the property affected. At the opening meeting before the supervisors there were many objections made by the property holders who said their lands were not in need of drainage, but their protests were overruled, and the county will go ahead with the improvement thus creating the value of farm lands in the Cypress district many thousands of dollars. It is proposed to build a series of huge drainage laterals with smaller ditches connecting, and run the water to the sea in the vicinity of Huntington Beach. The farmers are preparing to put in tile drains and thus get the excess alkali out of their always funny. He appears tonight at the Fairyland in his greatest picture, "The Round-up."

Looming as big as the West! Pessimism precalls in the camp of the lima bean growers this year, because of the lack of normal fogs to develop the crop. It is believed that the heat has cut the production in this county at least 50 per cent. W. C. Jerome, County Auditor, who grows large quantities of the beans, states that the acreage is less than usual this year, and that ranchers who have water are going into other lines of farming endeavor. It is believed the crop of Coast limas will run to 825,000 bags of 100 pounds each, while a million bags has previously been considered a small crop. The output of Henderson bush limas will be about 225,000 bags of 100 pounds each. Cutting of limas began on the Sar Joaquin ranch on August 15, and threshing has begun in most of the districts. About 600 acres of blackeyes are being raised this year south of this city. This year's black eye crop promises to be good and the prices are better than usual.

It is proposed to build a series of huge drainage laterals with smaller ditches connecting, and run the water to the sea in the vicinity of Huntington Beach. The farmers are preparing to put in tile drains and thus get the excess alkali out of their lands. Fred W. Bixby said at the meeting he was ready to give a right-of-way for the principal ditch through his property. Henry Gatgens, Samuel H. Bowman and Alfred Hansen, large land holders, also spoke in favor of the drainage plan. Figures made public today, under the state law requiring a report by the chairman of the Board of Supervisors, the district attorney, and the county auditor, showed Orange county to have in its treasury at the present time $1,605,244.53. This amount is disposed of in the following way: $824,900 loaned to banks at 2 per cent interest; money in transit, $2,940.56; currency $777,235; coin, $168.97. If you want to laugh for one hour straight see "Once a Plumber" at the Grand tonight. See Lyons and Moran as the two plumbers—and they were good plumbers—who had a chance to be millionaires for a night. They thought it was a lead-pipe clutch but they couldn't keep out of hot water. They'd looked for a life of ease and wheeze but when they'd been vampd by experts they were glad to get back to the old shop. But that was easier said than done—it will do you good to see what happened to them. Fatty Arbuckle is one of the screen stars you never grow tired of. He is In a fire occurring about 1 o'clock Wednesday at J. D. Price's 40-acre ranch one and one half miles southeast of Garden Grove, the electric pumping plant, house, barn, two horses and about $800 worth of hay owned by the Japanese tenant, G. Nishikawa, were destroyed. Five hundred dollars insurance was carried on the pumping plant owned by Price. The fire is believed to have been caused by defective wiring in the pumping plant. C. A. Harnols of Santa Ana, was in town Monday covering portions of his billboards with gigantic Harding and Coolidge posters. Mr. Harnols says that a friend of his who has just returned from a tour of the eastern and middle states declares that a Harding cyclone is sweeping those sections, the like of which has never been known before. Manager Riley of the Elks baseball team was firmly convinced Sunday after watching his boys play a few innings, that Abe Attel and his gang of New York gamblers had been tampering with them. It looked to Riley as if the boys were determined to hand the game to Pasadena and were finding it difficult to put up a sufficiently rotten game to allow the visitors to win. There certainly was a Jonah somewhere on the lot. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance. LOCAL NOTES A Japanese truck driver named T. Mori was fined $100 by Judge Howard Monday for carelessness. Mori was driving on the wrong side of the street on Garden Grove road and collided with a car driven by Alva Rogers. The Jap fought the case in court, but the evidence was against him. Anaheim Elks baseball team defeated Pasadena American Legion team at the high school grounds Sunday, the score being 9 to 4. It was a ragged game, as the local boys discovered in the first chapter that the visitors were not in their class. The Anaheim boys are in Sacramento this week attending the Elks state convention, and on Friday will play Oakland for the state championship. Harry D. Riley reports the sale of a Special "6" Studebaker Sedan to W. B. Lee of Anaheim and the sale of a Studebaker Club Roadster to D. C. Tidwell of Fullerton. A. Bayliss, who recently purchased the Frank Nemetz residence on East Center has rebuilt the house, the painters being now engaged in putting the finishing touches on it. He has completely transformed the old house into a cozy, modern cottage, and expects to spend his days in comfort, hereafter, but a house hunter tried to crowd him out of it some days ago, by offering him $5000 for the place. Harry D. Riley reports the sale of one 1920 Studebaker Special Six Touring car to Mr. A. R. Kearns of Brea; THE GREAT REGISTER The Gazete has in preparation the printing of indices to the great register for the thirty-five precincts of the third supervisorial district. These embrace the cities of Anaheim, Fullerton and Brea, as well as Placentia, Buena Park, La Habra, Orangethorpe, Cypress and the oil fields. The list contains about 8000 names, and gives the names of voters, their occupation, postoffice address and street residence numbers. Orders will be taken for copies of these indices, which will be found a ready means of reference to all registered voters in this district. Call or telephone this office the coming week. J. A. Clayes, principal of the A.U.H.S., announces that on Friday, October 15, a musical will be given at the high school auditorium to introduce to the patrons of the school Mrs. Martin Hobbs Higgins, head of the music department, and Mrs. Bess G. Balcomb, head of the dramatics department. Both are new members of the faculty and an interesting program has been arranged W. A. Benjamin and Miss Louise Montgomery, both of Santa Ana, will give vocal numbers, accompanied by Miss Ruth Armstrong, also of Santa Ana. Three or four of the forty pepper dryers in the Garden Grove district have opened up and all will be receiving peppers in ten days, it was stated today by Floyd Keahiher, of West Anaheim, prominent pepper buyer, who adds that he never saw peppers looking better. He says they will average a ton to the acre. The acreage is between 1600 and 1800 compared with 2300 last year. Personal Mention Harry Jayne is now an orange grower having purchased a nine-acre valencia orchard on West North street of Mrs. Bobst. Mrs. Fannie Lyon and her sister Miss Margaret Higgins, two young ladies formerly resident here, now of Hollywood were guests during the week of Mrs. Joseph Helmsen. Mr. and Mrs. George A. Mills and Mr. Sheppardson of Nebraska, a cousin of Mrs. Mills, who has been on a visit here for several weeks past, drove to Pasadena and other points of interest in the upper valley some days ago. Mr. Mills states that he saw nothing on his trip to equal the beauties of Orange county or the progressive spirit of this city. John H. Cook, our well-known townsman, has fully recovered from his serious accident some weeks ago, when his car was smashed by a Santa Fe train on Placentia avenue. He sustained severe injuries, but is now enjoying his usual aforetime good health. Mr. Cook takes keen interest in civic matters and attended the meeting of the trustees Thursday when he was an interested spectator. Mr. Cook's many friends are glad to see him taking an active part in the betterment of the civic government along with other enterprising citizens. Mrs. Ida Lehnebach, aunt of Gus Langenberger, who has been managing that gentleman's household for some years past leaves on November 3 for her old home in Strassbourg, Alsace, France. When Mrs. Lehnebach came to America nine years ago she Harry D. Riley reports the sale of one 1920 Studebaker Special Six Touring car to Mr. A. R. Kearns of Brea; also the sale of an automobile to Cecil Benton of Whittler and one to M. E. Cheatham of Orange, a 1920 Studebaker Big Six to A. F. Stohlman of Anaheim, and an auto to J. V. Peak of La Habra. Fred Marsh, who recently sold his grocery store on East Center street, has secured the agency for the Malibohm automobile. His territory covers northern Orange and part of Los Angeles counties. George Nacol, 17-year-old bank messenger, who confessed to the theft of $5,300 from the Home Hibernian Savings Bank of Los Angeles and led the officers to the hidden treasure, part of which was buried at the rear of the A. H. Romaine Auto Garage, on North Lemon street, Anaheim, and the remainder near the home of Mr. Romaine in Los Angeles will be sent back to his home in Louisiana on probation. Romaine and the boy's father were neighbors in Louisiana and Romaine interceded for the boy and brought him clenched from the bank officials. This was the first time he had ever been tempted and it was decided to give him another chance, hoping that this will teach him a lesson He had held stoutly to the declaration that he was innocent and had almost convinced the officers of his innocence when he was induced to confess by Romaine who had obtained for him the promise of clemency. It is stated that he did not steal the money for his own personal use but merely in an attempt to spite someone because he was fired from the service of the bank for inefficiency and was too narrow-minded to see that he could never get away with it. Three or four of the forty pepper dryers in the Garden Grove district have opened up and all will be receiving peppers in ten days, it was stated today by Floyd Keahiher, of West Anaheim, prominent pepper buyer, who adds that he never saw peppers looking better. He says they will average a ton to the acre. The acreage is between 1600 and 1800, compared with 2800 last year.The contract price is nineteen cents compared with sixteen cents last year.Keahiher says it will remain to be seen whether the crop is larger than the market calls for to determine whether there will be a price drop in the present drive on high prices.Keahiher will open his warehouse Oct. 15. The Citrus union high school football team anticipated an easy victory over the Anaheim high school on the local gridiron Friday afternoon, but found themselves outplayed at every point. It was a lively tussel, the Anaheim boys winning by a score of 6 to 0. Citrus union is considered one of the best high school teams in Southern California, consequently the local fans were jubilant over the victory. A complaint has been sworn out asking for the arrest of E. R. Peterkin, of Brea, for shooting quall out of season. The complaint was sworn to by W. E. Adkinson, game warden, who alleges that he found Peterkin shooting quall in the mountains near Trabuco. Adkinson stated that he had known someone was shooting quall for sometime, and had been out looking for him. The reason that he did not find anyone sooner, alleges Adkinson, is that when he went out to try to locate the gamester, Peterkin came and shot quall near Adkinson's house Monday the warden saw Peterkin in the brush, and followed him, he says.Peterkin saw him, and slipping off his hunting coat, went to his machine and started to drive away, according to the warden. Adkinson, finding the coat with ten dead quall in the pockets, stopped the machine. Mrs. Ida Lehnebach, aunt of Gus Langenberger, who has been managing that gentleman's household for some years past leaves on November 3 for her old home in Strassbourg, Alsace, France. When Mrs. Lehnebach came to America nine years ago she left all her household effects stored and all her money in Strassbourg banks. At the outbreak of the war the German government took possession of the banks and their deposits, consequently her wealth is now represented by official I. O. U's, which are not worth much at present. Her nephew, Gus Langenberger, is also leaving America, but will go west. He will circle the globe, meeting his aunt in Europe. COMMITTEE SEEKS REVISION Th Fertillizer committee of the Farm Bureau will meet with District Attorney West next Saturday to consider amending the present State Fertilizer Law. The farmer is paying much good money for valueless material sold under the guise of "manure." It has been variously estimated that $200,000 is spent annually in Orange County for poor fertilizers that do not come up to quality ordered by the buyers. Some provision is sought by the committee to require analysis of questionable shipments and adjustment of payment made on basis thereof. Mr. Geo. P. Gray, Chief of the State Fertilizer Control, Sacramento, has been called into consultation by the Farm Bureau. He will advise with the Fertilizer Committee on Oct. 28th. The State Department of Agriculture is looking on with a good deal of interest. Some action along the line that the Orange County Farm Bureau has started has been needed for a long time, especially since the values of barnyard fertilizers have advanced to present high prices. START SCALY BARK CONTROL A very stubborn disease is the Citrus Scaly Bark if it is allowed to gain inroads in the tree. If taken in time, when still conined to a small infected spot, it may be satisfactorily controlled by scraping the scales off and the superficial bark The News Is Out THERE is no longer any mystery as to why so many men come to our store year after year for their hats.

Launer stated that after looking over the petition he found that the issues raised are the ones that the board had hoped would be brought ducer and consumer, also to curb speculation in farm products. This action was decided upon at a great two-day conference in Chicago on July 23 and 24, called by the American Farm Bureau Federation to consider means of stabilizing markets for grain and livestock. The state farm bureau associations of the mid-west the granges and the farmers' unions of the same states, the Societies of Equity, the Farmers' National Grain-Dealers' Association, various livestock shipping associations and other farm organizations participated in the conference. Representatives of organized farmers of Canada were also present. It was the most important conference on co-operative marketing of farm products ever held in the United States. An earnest desire for closer and more effective co-operation among all forces working for the betterment of farm market conditions was manifest. While the conference was called to consider stabilizing both grain and livestock markets, it was early apparent that one object was enough to occupy the attention of the entire conference. Accordingly a committee, appointed to arrange a livestock marketing program, recommended that consideration of livestock marketing problems be deferred until a later conference called specially for that purpose. This second conference will be held in Chicago, probably in about two months.

Launer stated that after looking over the petition he found that the issues raised are the ones that the board had hoped would be brought before the court and that an early determination on these issues will be of great advantage to the city of Fullerton for the reason that the board is anxious to continue its plans and should know at once whether this particular phase of the plans adopted may be relied upon as valid or invalid. He added that it is unfortunate that the people of Brookhurst will not actually get the facts which the board would be glad to give to the people and which would disclose the object in view and after which the people would feel less cause for alarm. The general comment in Fullerton relative to the matter was in the form of surprise that Orangethorpe should desire to become the leader in the fight against Fullerton in view of the fact that Orangethorpe is now asking the co-operation of Fullerton in obtaining legislation for redistricting the school district.
