IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO
Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper
50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
Many of our citizens talk of cutting down the evergreen willows that form the hedges along their vineyards and placing board fences in their stead. Tree hedges of such magnificent growth as these of Anaheim should be allowed to remain, not only on account of their use as a fence, but for the picturesque beauty they add to the city. The green lanes and streets of all that portion of the city not occupied for business purposes, should be carefully preserved in all their glory. If they are cut down Anaheim will lose one of her principal sharms "Woodman, spare that tree."
There is much need of a school on the Bolsas, at the Sears settlement. We are informed by a resident of that locality that there are twenty families now living there who have upward of thirty children entitled to public schooling. The Williams settlement also has about the same number and schools should be established in both place at once.
The hotel and boarding house position in Anaheim is assuming amusing, if not gigantic feature. At hours of mealtime huge bells, are jingled with great display from three houses eighty feet apart, and with all
25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
The trustees at their meeting Tuesday evening passed to first reading the ordinance calling the municipal election on Monday, April 13th, and named the following officers of election: Inspectors, S. Littlefield and Theodore Rimpau; Judges, J. P. Zeyn and Chas. Hilles; Clerks, Lloyd Bailey and Fred Smythe; Ballot clerks Joe Hatfield and Julius Schneider.
The Enoch Talbort, Mr. Botsford's new oil tank vessel, sailing from San Pedro to San Francisco, for the safety of which much concern has been felt for some days arrived at her destination safely Tuesday night. She was twenty-two days making the trip, and must have encountered much unfavorable weather.
Mr. Botsford has sold the McFarland place of thirty acres at Placentia to a wealthy Colorado gentleman, at $400 per acre. A handsome residence will be built upon the thact.
George Bauer is home again after an absence in Seattle and other coast cities of a number of years, and is helping us bunch up type on a transcript which our job office is now engaged upon. George learned his trade in this office, joined the Typographical Union in Los Angeles after serving
The hotel and boarding house position in Anaheim is assuming amusing, if not gigantic feature; At hours of mealtime huge bells, are jingled with great display from three houses eighty feet apart, and with all the fuss, it is seldom any poor victim is thereby lured to strange hash.
The Anaheim school library has been increased by the addition of 50 volumes, mostly juvenile literature. This makes a total of 250 volumes in the library.
Here's a marine item. Last Wednesday we noticed an item that would have made the Star man stand on his head for joy—the same being a drunken Indian lying unconscious in the tide of a swiftly flowing zanja.
We have been shown specimens of rye 36 inches in height, which was sown on the 28th of December last, on the ranch of Mr. Olden. This is on sub-soiled land, which has no irrigation, and is a fine sample of a 40-acre lot of the same.
On Tuesday last we noticed forty-seven square looking boys going on the double quick from Mr. Guilan's school down Center street. The lot appeared to average four feet in height and fifteen inches in width. They were of a nut brown color and well clad. In about three years these young roosters will become sparkable young men after which dull times in the social element of Anaheim will cease.
At the meeting of the board of supervisors on the 21st inst., the petition of S. S. Dunnels & Co., for wharf franchise at Newport, after testimony was taken and argument heard, was granted.
Over three hundred thousand pounds of corn was lately shipped from near Gallatin to the Allso mill, Los Angeles. It brought from $1.05 $1.25 per cental.
The steamer, William Taber in a fog yesterday morning, ran on Point San Pedro, thumped heavily three times, but through the coolness of the captain and officers got off. The only damage was a leak which will place of thirty acres at Placentia to a wealthy Colorado gentleman, at $400 per acre. A handsome residence will be built upon the thact.
George Bauer is home again after an absence in Seattle and other coast cities of a number of years, and is helping us bunch up type on a transcript which our job office is now engaged upon. George learned his trade in this office, joined the Typographical Union in Los Angeles after serving his apprenticeship, and has worked in many of the larger cities of the coast, always giving satisfaction as a steady reliable hand. He tells us he grows indolent as he comes south, that he was very ambitious in the north, and that if he should go down to Mexico it would probably be many-ana, manyana all the time.
Mr. Crowther informs us that the inspection trip of the water board up the river on Wednesday last showed the ditches and flumes to be in good condition and thousands of water coming down.
Fritz Ruhman's new brick block has been decorated with its galvanized iron cornices, and the painters, plasterers and carpenters are engaged in getting the building ready for occupancy. The structure makes a very fine appearance, and is one of the handsomest buildings in town. John Schauman will occupy the north room and R. H. Seale the south, the middle room being as yet unrented.
The test of pipe put in for the water company by Gus Schade near Earnest Browning's place last Thursday, served an interesting demonstration illustrative of the hydro-static paradox. The pressure in the pipe where it observes a slight incline from the upper end and joins thence to a section of pipe on the level, proved too great to withstand the sudden rush of waters, and it burst at the connection with a loud report, spraying the water high in the air. Ventilators will be put in and another test made, when it is expected it will work all right.
Philip Davis was thrown from his buggy while driving in Brea canyon some eleven miles from town Sunday morning and sustained the fracture of his left arm midway between the wrist and the elbow. His face was also badly bruised, and before assistance arrived he laid on the grass at the edge of the road some three hours when a morning teamster brought him
Over three hundred thousand pounds of corn was lately shipped from near Gallatin to the Aliso mill, Los Angeles. It brought from $1.05 $1.25 per cental.
The steamer, William Taber in a fog yesterday morning, ran on Point San Pedro, thumped heavily three times, but through the coolness of the captain and officers got off. The only damage was a leak which will necessitate docking her. The passengers signed a testimonial to the captain considering their lives saved by his coolness and skill. Three of the crew sent ashore in irons at San Luis Obispo, having stolen a keg of wine, and become so intoxicated as to be unable to do their duty.
Don Juan Forster is quite enthusiastic in regard to the future of the Southern Counties. He believes that the Texas Pacific and Coast railroads are the first great necessities for their development, and that the construction of these roads is but a question of time. It is his opinion that it would be better for stock raisers and infinitely better for the rest of the country if the large ranch owners would fence their ranches, as they would thereby have less trouble with their stock, and small farmers would be able to cultivate their claims without fencing.
In accordance with the idea the Don intends to fence his large ranch as soon as practicable, and he has part of the lumber engaged for this purpose. He looks forward to the time as fact approaching when the Southern Counties will play out for stock raising, and when the large ranches will be cut up into small farms and taking time by the forelock he is preparing for the inevitable future of farming and more each year.
Philip Davis was thrown from his buggy while driving in Brea canyon some eleven miles from town Sunday morning and sustained the fracture of his left arm midway between the wrist and the elbow. His face was also badly bruised, and before assistance arrived he laid on the grass at the edge of the road some three hours, when a passing teamster brought him to Fullerton, whence he was sent to town in one of Jenning's rigs. The horse which he was driving was Mr. Dickel's well-known Satinwood colt, a valuable animal, and sustained the breaking of the tendons of the hind legs, and is badly injured. No other the buggy nor the harness was injured.
There is quite a boom in Placentia real estate. On Tuesday Mr. Blenerhassett sold his ten acre orange tract to Mr. Botsford for $500 per acre. Mr. Botsford is said to have a purchaser in hand for a part of his tract at $750 per acre. The rumor was current on the street yesterday that the Santa Fe officials had favorably regarded the building of their road from Fullerton to Placentia and that work on the line would begin before long.
The editorial household is ahead a box of fancy navels from J. C. Sheppard's grove at Fullerton, which had been gathered for our friend Ward. The cement contractor, who is rapidly coming to be one of the richest men in the world. Sheppard gathered a nice sackful and brought them into town for him, but Ward rushed off to catch his train and forgot all about the oranges. We proceeded to replevy them. They were first-rate oranges and Sheppard has our thanks for them.

WITHOUT CONSULTING THE LEAGUE
What will the League of Nations do in the case of Great Britain and of France, which without consulting the League, have agreed to change certain boundaries in the Near East to harmonize better with their schemes of developing the territory? Both nations are members of the League in good standing, yet it is apparent that they have gone contrary to its principles and intentions without even a hint to the Supreme Council of their mutual plans.
Probably neither nation is worrying much about what action the League may take—if indeed, it asserts itself enough to take any action at all. The main point is that the agreement, which has been a secret for two months, relieves France of that she presumably had no hope of developing with her limited resources, to say nothing of her difficulties in Northern Syria, and makes possible the dream of the British for an all-rail route from India, to the Mediterranean wholly under British control.
Before the war Russia regarded Persia as one of her highways to the ocean trade routes. She had an understanding with Great Britain as to spheres of influence in Persia, but the Russians and the English were almost continually at odds as to the limits of these spheres. When the war left Russia high and dry, Great Britain became supreme in the Shah's country. Under an agreement signed in August 1919, the British were alone named as co-operators with the Persians in building railways and other means of transport. They had been at work during the war on a railroad line from Quetta, in northern India, to a point in Persia from where in case of victory, they could in time link up into the salted boiling water pour or sift the corn meal slowly, stirring constantly and allow to boil for 10 minutes, then add most of the cheese and cook for 10 minutes more, or until the cheese is melted. Add the milk, end cook for a few minutes. Pour into a greased baking dish, and brown in the oven. This is improved by grating a little hard cheese over the top just before it is baked.
Serve hot or when cold it may be cut into slices and fried. This serves four or six persons.
DELICIOUS, BREADS MADE FROM SUBSTITUTE FLOURS
Wheat bread served three times a day is apt to grow tiresome if not varied by bread made from other cereals. The following recipes are recommended by the Home Economics Kitchen of the United States Department of Agriculture:
Brown Bread
3 cups of corn meal.
1 cup of flour
3 tsp baking powder.
1 teaspoonful salt.
2 cups water
1 cup molasses.
Mix the dry ingredients and add the molasses and water. Pour the mixture into a greased coffee can or a steaming tin, and steam it for 2 hours, and then bake in a moderate oven for 1-2 hour.
Nut Bread
3 cups of flour.
3 teaspoons baking powder.
1 teaspoon of salt
1-2 cup of sugar.
1 cup of milk
1 egg, well beaten.
1 cup of English walnut or pecan or hickory nut meats cut into small pieces.

CORN MEAL IN APPETIZING WAYS
Most persons who eat a noontime dinner like at least one hot, hearty dish for supper. Those made largely of corn meal are not only nourishing but very appetizing as well, when made by a skillful cook.
When mush is called for in a recipe the following method of preparing it, recommended by the Experimental kitchen of the United States Department of Agriculture, is easier and better than the usual way—that of bringing the water to a boiling point and then stirring the meal into it:
- Lumpless Corn-Meal Mush
- Put the corn meal, cold water and salt together in the top of a double boiler. No stirring is necessary. Put the top of the double boiler into the lower part and allow the mush to heat slowly, cooking half an hour, or longer, if convenient. Many persons cook it for four hours. Just before serving remove the top of the double boiler from the lower part, and boll the mush for two or three minutes. In boiling it at this time there is no danger that it will lump, and this extra cooking improves the texture and the flavor.
Nut Bread?
3 cups of flour.
3 teaspoons baking powder.
1 teaspoon of salt
1-2 cup of sugar.
1 cup of milk
1 egg, well beaten.
1 cup of English walnut or pecan or hickory nut meats cut into small pieces.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar, and add the milk, the well beaten egg and the nut meats. Place the mixture in a well-buttered pan and let rise for 1 hour. Bake for 3-4 hours in a moderate oven.
Rolled Oats and Wheat Bread
1-1-4 cups liquid (milk, water, potato water, or a mixture of these).
1-2 cup freshly mashed potatoes.
3 1-2 cups wheat flour.
1-4 cake yeast.
1 tablespoon sugar or corn syrup.
2 teaspoons salt.
3-8 cups ground rolled oats.
Make a sponge of all the ingredients except the rolled oats, and let it rise in a warm place until very light. Add the rolled oats, which have been ground fine in a food chopper and measured after grinding. Let the dough rise until it doubles in bulk, then knead and mould into a loaf brush with melted butter after it has been placed in a pan, and allow it to double in bulk again. Bake in a hot oven for 1 1-4 hours.
