A special hearing on the application of the Southern Pacific company to the railroad commission for permission to discontinue its motor car service between Anaheim and Los Angeles will be held in Los Angeles at 9:30 a.m., Friday, June 1, according to announcement today. The session will be held at Room 809, Pacific Finance building, Sixth and Olive. Communities affected by the proposed discontinuance of the service have been notified. Those most interested are residents of Buena Park, Norwalk and Downey, it is said. The bi-products plant operated at the old marmalade factory on South Los Angeles street, in caring for the culls from several northern Orange county exchange packing houses, was opened again last week. The fruit is graded into two classes known as standards and bi-product. The bi-product is again divided into two classes, one going to the Exchange bi-products factory at San Dimas for the manufacture of orange peel, orange juice, orange vinegar, and on order, orange marmalade and orange jelly.

The complaint, read to the defendant in the justice court, was sworn to by Traffic Officer Vernon Myers, who arrested Murrietto at Stanton Monday afternoon. According to Myers, Murrietto was intoxicated and threatening to shoot when he came upon him. Myers said that he drew his own gun and ordered the Mexican to drop the weapon which he held. "If he had not dropped the gun the moment I ordered him to I would have shot him," Myers declared. Word was received from Stanton that the Mexican was wielding a gun in that neighborhood and threatening to kill two others. Rumors of several shots being fired also were heard. Under Sheriff E. E. French and Myers responded to the call. The whole Mexican colony at Stanton was in a state of excitement. The officers found it difficult to get at the root of the trouble but found the man who was carrying the gun and brought him in. The defendant declared in court that he had been drinking hard older. Justice Cox gave Murrietto a suspended sentence of thirty days and kept the revolver, which the Mexican had been flourishing.

The forepart of the evening was given over to a short program and talks from prominent members of the lodge. Roscoe Carley sang two tenor solos and was followed by a group of readings by Mrs. Harry Sears. Mrs. H. O. Henderson sang an appropriate birthday song. Following the program, guests adjourned to the parlors, where cards and dancing were enjoyed. The hall was artistically arranged with garden flowers and fern. Later a cafeteria luncheon was served and a large birthday cake bearing twenty-five candles was cut and served. Miss Robertson, principal of the Central grammar school, entertained the 6-B class at a party at the Cherry Blossom on Friday afternoon. Those present were Marlon Utter, Florence Backs, Jessie Johnston, Beverley Harrison, Hilda Bolz, Marie Fischer, Edna Reynolds, Mario McDuell, Helen Grafton, Joe Ranker, Norman Hedges, Fern Murch, George Grilener, Homer Bishop, Otto Clausen, Evelyn Magathan, Blenda Probst, Tommy Kuchel, Grace Waters, Mabel White; Edna Stewart, Mary Beebe, Idaline Schlosser, Margarette Schlosser, Louise Smith, Richard Dugdale, Marjorie Latourette, Willie Zamarippa, Virgil Paxton, Mabel Stewart, Kenneth Tanaka and Miss Mattie Lou Robertson, teacher of the class. Mrs. Evelyn Willard, 41, widow of a wealthy pioneer California fruit handler, burned herself to death at her home in Tustin Friday. Horribly burned and barely conscious, Mrs. Willard was discovered more than an hour after the tragedy, by her daughter, Evelyn, 14, when she returned from school. "I want to die, Evelyn," the mother murmured. Evidences about the house indicated that Mrs. Willard had poured upon her clothing the contents of a large can of gasoline. Then she had walked into the front yard, and standing beside a water hydrant. RELIEF FOR FLOOD SUFFERERS The part that the Salvation Army has been taking in the relief of Colorado's flood sufferers has just been conveyed to western territorial headquarters in two telegrams—one from Governor Shoup, of Colorado, and the other from Commissioner Adam Gifford, western territorial commander, who has personally taken charge of the Army's relief work organization in Pueblo. The Salvation Army has two units working in the Pueblo field and is said to have been among the first to reach the flood area. Both military and civil authorities have joined in praising the work of these two units. Because of the effectiveness of its work, the Salvation Army has been given charge of a mess in the Pueblo refugee camp, where one thousand meals are served daily to refugees. Salvation Army lassies, including Margaret Sheldon, of overseas fame, are manning the field ranges and have labored under great difficulties of rain, mud and intense heat. Because of the Salvation Army's success in this camp Colonel Hamrock, adjutant general of Colorado, has requested Commissioner Gifford to take charge of a second camp. Governor Shoup wired the Salvation Army as follows: "The citizens of Colorado appreciate the co-operation and relief afforded by the Salvation Army and take this occasion to thank you for what they have done and are doing. Be assured we are most grateful." ARISTOCRATIC DOG J. N. Nenno, a pioneer resident of Placentia avenue and Palm drive, is now the happy owner of one of the most famous police dogs in southern California, having recently purchased Marquise de Maintenon von Melford, whose grandfather was the famous Hector von Jensen, international champion, who took all the first prizes in all the countries, for this type. The dog was sold to Mr. Nenno by a friend, Mr. Honn, and is valued at $1.500.

The local pair consisted of W. P. Stickley and "Eddie" Hansen, both of whom are as well known in Placentia as well as other towns in this district. Both pleaded guilty and were sent to the state industrial institution at Ione until they reach the age of 21. Hansen is a notorious "bad boy" with a brazen indifference of the worst type. On his way back from Fresno, where he was captured by means of clues run down by City Marshal Thwing, Hansen confessed to half a dozen different "jobs" and the Fullerton officials are confident that he and his pal were more or less active in several local breaks and burglaries. For the next five years they will be in the custody of the state. Stickley is well known locally. Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50.

SANTA FE TRAIL TEMPORARILY CLOSED Motorists planning a trip to eastern points at this time are advised by the touring board of the Automobile Club of Southern California that the great Santa Fe trail is temporarily closed between Albuquerque and La Junta. Flood conditions which have recently swept Pueblo are responsible for the closing of this route, caused by the overflow of the Arkansas and Rio Grande rivers. All bridges are out. However, this does not mean that motor car travel between southern California and eastern points is completely at a standstill. The automobile club has arranged a detour by way of Estancia, Clovis and Dodge City for the use of automobile owners who find it necessary to undertake this trip. The club crew which is engaged in a nation-wild charting trip has been marooned near Pecos, in Texas, on account of flood conditions along the Peco river. Word is received daily from members of this crew in regard to road conditions throughout the southern states and this information may be obtained by motorists who are planning an eastern trip at this time. Local highway conditions and general road conditions throughout the southern part of the state are excellent, de- FAVORABLE INDICATIONS Most favorable indications continue to mark the course of the rotary used in drilling the Standard Oil company's test well at Garden Grove. The big feature that characterized the drilling Tuesday were rumors that stiff gas pressure had been noted. The hole is 1645 feet deep. While Standard Oil company officials and employees as usual maintained the greatest reticence about what they were finding it was known today that they are expecting almost anything to happen at any time now. Despite the toning down of all reports, excitement has never been so intense in the Garden Grove district since the Standard company started its wildcat. Just what the bringing in of a well at Garden Grove will mean remains to be seen, but there are those who maintain that if oil is found on the "fats" the country surrounding the well will experience an oil rush be- U. S. Golf association, and will thus be available for golf enthusiasts all over America. In one corner of the map is a special chart showing the shortest and best route connecting each of the 32 golf courses with the other. This chart also shows the condition of the roads between the various courses. Nowhere else in the world can be found such a large number of golf clubs connected by a net-work of paved roads. The greatest distance separating any two of the southern California golf courses is 246 miles, this being between La Combre Golf club at Santa Barbara and the San Diego Country club at Chula Vista. Even this entire route is paved. These maps will soon be available for all golfing motorists through the various offices of the automobile club. Citrus growers of Orange county are interested in the announcement that experiments are to be made this week at La Habra with fumigation under a system of gas-tight rubber tents manufactured at the plant of the Goodyear Rubber company, Los Angeles. The experiments are being conducted under the direct supervision of Professors Quayle and Knight, of the citrus experiment station, Riverside, and Woglum, of the California Fruit Growers' exchange. Demonstrations of the utility of the rubber tents were made at Corona last/week. A number of Orange county growers attended these demonstrations and it is said that they deeply impressed with the value of the new tents. In the opinion of Professor Quayle, based on experiments so far made, rubber tents will save from one-fourth to one-third on costs of fumigation material. The rubber tents are air tight, with the result that a smaller amount of material will hay, the same results as larger The club crew which is engaged in a nation-wild charting trip has been marooned near Pecos, in Texas, on account of flood conditions along the Peco river.

Local highway conditions and general road conditions throughout the southern part of the state are excellent, despite the rains of last month, according to the latest bulletin issued by the automobile club. Important information is contained in the announcement that both roads to Lake Tahoe and vicinity are now open. These are Truckee-Donner Lake road and the Placerville-Strawberry road, and are in wonderful shape. It is also stated that the Big Oak Flat road into Yosemite valley is excellent. There will be more summer touring this year here-abouts than ever before. A STRANGE CASE A strange case came to the attention of the Fullerton police during Thursday night. Night shift oil workers driving in from the hills beyond Brea came upon what they at first supposed to be a dead man stretched out in the highway, but which investigation proved to be a youth, fast asleep. They aroused him and after a few questions, answers to which convinced them he was entirely responsible, they brought him into Fullerton and turned him over to the police. Examined by Justice French he gave the name of Sam Todisco, his home as Los Angeles, and his age as 18 years. He is of Italian parentage, said he had gotten a far as the eighth grade in grammar school. When found asleep in the highway he was coatless and hatless, but was not injured in any way, which disposed of any theory that he might have been the victim of an automobile accident. He gave a rambling account of his wanderings since leaving Los Angeles some days ago, and had something to say about an experience in the office of a dentist as being responsible for his condition. He gave what was purported to be the Los Angeles address of his mother, but a telephone call developed that nothing was known about her at the address given. The boy had $1.25 in his possession. He was taken to Santa Ana for exami- GET HERO MEDAL Following receipt of information there that Robert Foreman, now aged about 16 years, had received a Carnegie medal and $1600 in cash, residents of Balboa are recalling the act of heroism, five years ago, which resulted in the young man being honored. At the time Foreman was 10 years old. The 11-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. N. B. Hinckley, of Byrn Mawr. Cal., was in a boat, alone. He lost his balance and fell into the bay near the pavilion. Without hesitation, young Foreman plunged into the bay, grasped the drowning lad and sustained him above water until assistance arrived. Mr. and Mrs. Hinckley presented Robert Foreman with a gold watch at that time and wrote to the Carnegie hero fund. Not until a few days ago was anything heard from this communication. Then, however, the Hinckleys received word that the money and medal had been sent to the heroic lad. Young Foreman now lives in Dallas, Tex., with his mother. He has an uncle, A. W. Jackson, who lives at Balboa.

H₆ gave a rambling account of his wanderings since leaving Los Angeles some days ago, and had something to say about an experience in the office of a dentist as being responsible for his condition. He gave what was purported to be the Los Angeles address of his mother, but a telephone call developed that nothing was known about her at the address given. The boy had $1.25 in his possession. He was taken to Santa Ana for examination by county officials as to his sanity, and determination as to what disposition should be made of him. SUNDAY SCHOOL SURVEY For the purpose of getting data for ascertaining how many public school children of the county attend Sunday schools and the number of children and adults that attend such schools, efforts are now being directed toward a survey of the county in respect to attendance at Sunday schools. The Rev. G. W. Kitzmiller, secretary of the Orange County Sunday School association, has forwarded blanks to every Sunday school in the county asking for the record of attendance of children twelve years of age and under, those between the ages of twelve and twenty-four, and those over the latter age. The data is being prepared for the Rev. J. G. Kennedy, chairman of a committee appointed by the Orange County Clerical club, to develop figures to ascertain the percentage of school children who attend Sunday school. Some of the Sunday schools have already filed answers with the Rev. Mr. Kitzmiller. He announced today, that until reports are had from the following churches accurate information cannot be given out, and because of this he urges that pastors of the de- Young Foreman now lives in Dallas, Tex., with his mother.

The by-products of the beet field and sugar mill that are of especial importance to the farmer are the beet top, pulp, molasses, and the waste lime. Many farmers sell the tops for cash, prices ranging from $2.50 to $5 per acre. This is usually not the best prac- BEET TOPS FOR FEED There is a close and important relation between the production of sugar beets and the raising of livestock, especially cattle and sheep, according to Farmers' Bulletin 567, recently revised and republished by the United States department of agriculture, on sugar beet growing under irrigation. Not only will the livestock, if properly handled, produce an important part of the farm income, but they are very essential to soil improvement. The keeping of livestock enables the beet grower to make the best possible use of the beet tops, which, in connection with roughage, easily produced, keeps the livestock in good condition and enables the farmer to return the mineral element in the tops to the soil and increase the supply of humus which is of especial importance in irrigated sections. Sheep as well as cattle thrive on beet tops, but it is wise to feed them sparingly at first. In some localities stock is pastured on the tops after the beet roots have been removed. This saves time and labor, but it is rather wasteful of the tops and frequently injures the ground. It is usually more satisfactory to gather and haul the tops to the feed yard and feed them from a rack, or they may be used as silage either in a silo or in a trench four or five feet deep and long and wide enough to hold the tops and the roughage necessary to make the silage. A layer of straw about six inches deep should be put in the bottom of the silo. The beet tops and straw or other roughage should then be added in alternate layers, and firmly packed to prevent spoiling. The by-products of the beet field and sugar mill that are of especial importance to the farmer are the beet top, pulp, molasses, and the waste lime. Many farmers sell the tops for cash, prices ranging from $2.50 to $5 per acre. This is usually not the best practice. The tops are of greater value as a stock feed and contain elements which should be kept on the farm. Beet pulp is likewise an excellent stock feed and may be used either fresh as it comes from the mill or dried. Beet molasses is the residue after the crystalizable sugar has been removed from the concentrated beet juice. It may be fed by itself or mixed with chopped roughage by spreading it over beet pulp, alfalfa, etc., or drying it with beet pulp. Waste lime is a by-product of the sugar mill, which, under certain conditions is of considerable value to the farmer in correcting the acid condition of the soil and in making the heavy soils more friable. Sugar beets are grown in seventeen states, in ten of which the growers depend, in whole or in part, upon irrigation. The successful production of sugar beets under irrigation depends not only upon an adequate supply of irrigating water, but upon a suitable system of crop rotation, a thorough preparation of the seed bed, careful planting and thinning, timely and thorough cultivation in addition to a supply of livestock, which will balance with the crop production. In addition a suitable irrigating system of drainage; furthermore the soil should be well supplied with humus.
