C. OF C. BULLETIN Following are some extracts from the latest issue of the monthly bulletin issued by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce: Orange show finance committee is in the field for loans to be advanced for the staging of the 1922 exposition. Members are respectfully requested to give this financing plan their careful consideration and co-operate with it. Please remember that the solicitor who calls on you is performing his duty as a step in the upbuilding of his community, besides putting his money up. A delegation went to San Bernardino Nov. 29th and had duck dinner with the builders of the national orange show of 1922. This promises to be a big event. We ask that our members and their friends visit the national show at San Bernardino in February. Half price tickets will be procurable from the local chamber, early in advance of the dates. These are 25 cents each instead of the usual 50 cent admission. We expect great co-operation from our San Bernardino friends, as in the case of our last show. The secretary visited the Oroville orange and olive show Saturday, last week. The feature displays were beautifully contrived and faithfully executed. Our northern neighbors have shipped their oranges, already. They are very much interested in having southern California growers see their country and judge their opportunities in a citrus way. Oroville will send a delegation to our Valencia show, they say. City extension—Anaheim's greatest need—if she is to keep in the front rank of California cities, has not been neglected as will be shown in a later report by the chairman, J. F. Abilborn, who has been working faithfully since our last issue. His plans promise theitable difference to the taxpayers of the county. All these cemeteries are in shocking condition and in many cases relatives of those buried therein have died or left the country. If you have not signed this petition, please do so without delay. Copies are on hand at Falkenstein's, S. Q. R., Prince store and this office. During the past week, half a dozen space-holders in our last Orange show have made personal calls at the office, demanding the same locations for our next orange show. One man has offered to double the amount he paid for a concession to sell "hot dogs." He believes this show will prove to be the best annual event in California, before two more years have passed. The office has over 500 new names from which to solicit industrial space-holders in the next show. We will have at least 200 industrial spaces sold well before the opening day. Keep your eyes on the 2nd annual California Valencia orange show. AGE FOR ECOG PRODUCTION Some folk have the right kind of fowls, house and feed them properly, and still don't get eggs early in the winter because their hens are too old. It seldom pays to keep hens for laying after they are 2 1/2 years old. They may give a profit, but younger fowls will give more. Many positrymen who make a specialty of winter-egg production keep only pullets, disposing of even the yearling hens before it is time to put them in the winter quarters. Early hatched pullets, if properly grown, ought to begin laying in October or early November and continue to lay right through the winter. Yearling hens seldom begin laying much before January 1 and older hens not until later. It is the November and December queues that bring the high called on to build one about $30,000, across Anaheim, the shorter route is chosen of Alamitos bay and Anaheim bay will have each with an expensive and with expensive pleas withstand the tide... ing southern California growers see their country and judge their opportunities in a citrus way. Oroville will send a delegation to our Valencia show, they say. City extension—Anaheim's greatest need—if she is to keep in the front rank of California cities, has not been neglected as will be shown in a later report by the chairman, J. F. Abilborn, who has been working faithfully since our last issue. His plans promise the addition of considerable territory, especially on the north and east. The new enterprise to be inaugurated to the eastward, which was mentioned in our last bulletin, seems to be planning nicely, but the time for announcement is not quite ripe. The industries committee have discussed two proposals, during November, both of which require heavy investment here, and were therefore not recommended. Those who would be interested in the building up of a large canning establishment in Anaheim are requested to interview the secretary without delay. The auto parking committee thanks the city council for their prompt painting of vertical "stalls" for autowin our mercantile area. Letters of satisfaction from outside shoppers have been received stuffing that this improvement has saved considerable space Anaheim is the most crowded city in California, especially on Saturday nights. The establishment of an auto parking station on West Center may relieve this congestion to an extent. Are you using Anaheim or southern California beef sugar? Be sure and ask your grocer for the home product, or that made in nearby counties, as great benefit is thereby derived in our neighboring beet growing colonies. The secretary reports after having visited six northern cities, including San Francisco, Oakland and Sacramento, that staple articles are as cheap or cheaper here than in any of these. The member who spends his Christmas dollars at home, will get a whack at them at a later date, but the Los Angeles-spent dollar is "blown in" for keeps. Let us do our Christmas shopping early, and and in Anaheim. The Anaheim Transit company, a bus service covering the city limits make a specialty of winter-egg production keep only pullets, disposing of even the yearling hens before it is time to put them in the winter quarters. Early hatched pullets, if properly grown, ought to begin laying in October or early November and continue to lay right through the winter. Yearling hens seldom begin laying much before January 1 and older hens not until later. It is the November and December eggs that bring the high prices. The laying breeds should begin laying when from 5 to 6 months old, general purpose breeds at 6 to 7 months, and the meat breeds at 7 to 8 months. PREACHER STRIKES OIL When the Rev. Byron H. Wilson, Methodist minister, invested his savings of many years in a four-acre tract of land at Huntington Beach, he hoped to prepare a home place for his declining years, where he could "putter around" and have congenial occupation for himself outdoors. But oil derricks came to Huntington Beach and the minister was not averse to receiving his share of the golden petroleum, so he executed a lease to the Argonaut Oil company, which began drilling. A few days ago this well known as Wilson No. 1, was "brought in," but did nothing startling and only "opened up" on Saturday, when it began flowing at the rate of 1000 barrels a day. As a result, Rev. Wilson's oil income is approximately $200 a day, probably greater than the average salary he has been getting per month since his entrance into the ministry. Rev. Mr. Wilson is now superintendent of the Los Angeles district of the Methodist church. PARK YOUR GROUCH OUTSIDE When Thompson called the other day, My heart began to sink; I hoped he'd not sit down to stay—He guessed as much, I think. My greeting, purposely, was cold But, pulling up a chair, He smiled serenely as he told Me things were "looking fair." From glancing often at the door—A hint that I employed—I soon forget he was a bore. And ceased to be annoyed. He used to come with clouded face. Complaining and sad-eyed.

All of Wh visited six northern cities, including San Francisco, Oakland and Sacramento, that staple articles are as cheap or cheaper here than in any of these. The member who spends his Christmas dollars at home, will get a whack at them at a later date, but the Los Angeles-spent dollar is "blown in" for keeps. Let us do our Christmas shopping early, and in Anaheim. The Anaheim Transit company, a bus service covering the city limits and adjacent plants, has been running for six weeks at a serious loss. The chamber was the means of getting this service and still believes that if our members make it a personal duty to patronize it, it will soon provide at least overhead expense, for its organizers. The buses are comfortable and the schedules are well maintained. We must not make a failure of this enterprise, which has so well proved its worth. Talk bus line to every one you meet and see if we cannot better these conditions. People of means from the outside write or call in daily for houses to rent. Let us know what you have to offer. We are losing desirable families to other localities. These people prefer Anaheim, but become discouraged and have to settled elsewhere. At least 1200 further signatures are required to the cemetery petition. This is to go to the county clerk by Dec. 16th, in order to assure the permanent upkeep by the county of the ancient cemeteries of Orange county, and Anaheim has one. The committee has secured about 300 names out of the 1500 set aside as our part of this work. The tax to be levied for the service in taking care of these cemeteries is only two mills on the one hundred dollars, and will make no no- He guessed as much, I think. My greeting, purposely, was cold But, pulling up a chair, He smiled serenely as he told Me things were "looking fair." From glancing often at the door—A hint that I employed—I soon forget he was a bore, And ceased to be annoyed. He used to come with clouded face, Complaining and sad-eyed. But now a change had taken place—He'd parked his grouch outside. His manner and his speech were bright; He radiated cheer; I missed, the genuine delight, His customary sneer; The favor that he asked was small, And how could I do less Than show my gameness, after all? I had to answer yes. You may have reason to believe That everything is wrong. But don't let other men perceive Your visage when it's long; Learn all the cheering news you can, And wear a smile that's wide, For Luck slips in to aid the man Who parks his grouch outside. Fritz Kluewer, proprietor of the Dew Drop Inn, has rented the brick garage building in the rear of his establishment, facing the alley, and will turn it into a cafe, where lunches at popular prices will be served. A portion of the house will be used as a wholesale house, Mr. Kluewer having the county agency for Ranier beer and the product of a large apple older manufactory. Fritz's lunch counter is bound to be popular as he proposes to give a good meal, prepared by an excellent cook, at an extremely low price. ANAHEIM LEADS AT HONORABLE MENTION FOR STUDENTS, ALL OF WHICH ING WELL Anaheim has sent seven high school alumni other of its residents, over agricultural college to education, and it may them, according to report to this city of their work. Vernon L. Gregg, a graduate of 1919, from the Schoole School, but now an Anaheim is a junior in the schoole. T. Irving Quarton, an alumnus, is registered at the department of chemie. Harold C.

If the case is settled in favor of the longer route, for which the state commission has made all of its plans, bids for constructing the state highway section between Long Beach and Huntington Beach will be called for immediately. If the decision is in favor of the shorter route considerable delay will be experienced, for new surveys will have to be made and provision for constructing two $250,000 bridges will have to be made. Orange county interests, it seems, are almost entirely in favor of the longer route. Recently, supervisors of this county put themselves squarely on record in relation to the building of two bridges. In case the shorter route is finally selected as the state highway route. It is a general policy and understanding in the state that a county in which the state commission is building a highway must stand the cost of building all bridges over 30 feet in length. For the longer route, this county will be called on to build one bridge, to cost about $30,000, across Anaheim bay. If the shorter route is chosen, the mouth of Alamitos bay and the mouth of Anaheim bay will have to be bridged, each with an expensive draw bridge and with expensive piers and piling to withstand the tide currents. He was recently elected as one of three new members from the entire college to "Mask and Dagger," the honorary dramatics society of the campus. He will be well remembered by the high school students as well as the townspeople, for his creditable work in the senior play of the class of 20, of which he was a member. Henry B. Dolton is a junior in horticulture. He is continuing his athletic record, gained at the Anaheim union high school. VAST INCREASE IN THE IRRIGATED AREA Orange county shows an appreciable gain in irrigation enterprises and irrigated acreage since 1909, according to a bulletin just issued by the United States census bureau. In most instances the increases amounted to more than 50 per cent, while the amount of capital invested in public and private enterprises in 1920 was more than 200 per cent more than that invested in 1910. With an approximate land area of 508,800 acres, Orange county contains 4188 farms with a total area of 325,-703 acres, according to the bulletin. Of this number 200,945 acres were improved land. The number of farms irrigated in 1919 was 3846, or 91.8 percent of the total, an increase of 73.6 percent over the 2215 irrigated farms in 1909. The irrigated area in 1919 amounted to $7,330 acres or 43.6 percent of the improved land, an increase of 58.6 over the amount of acreage irrigated in 1909. This latter amounted to 55,056. The capital invested in irrigated farms on January 1, 1920, representing the actual investments of large corporations and the estimated investments of private partnership and cooperative enterprises, was $6,501,903. On July 1, 1910, the invested capital... in the state that a county in which the state commission is building a highway must stand the cost of building all bridges over 30 feet in length. For the longer route, this county will be called on to build one bridge, to cost about $30,000, across Anaheim bay. If the shorter route is chosen, the mouth of Alamitos bay and the mouth of Anaheim bay will have to be bridged, each with an expensive draw bridge and with expensive piers and piling to withstand the tide currents. The board of supervisors by formal resolution notified the state highway commission that Orange county would not undertake the construction of these two bridges, and if the shorter route is decided upon the state highway commission must look to some other source for money with which to finance the building of the two bridges. It is understood that Orange county has secured or will soon finish negotiations for all of the right of way for the longer route, at least up to the sandpit on the ocean side of Anaheim bay. If the shorter route is to be selected many lot owners will have to be looked up in order to get the necessary right of way for the state road. FIVE YEARS' PROBATION Kenneth McLellan, son of H. L. McLellan, a prosperous rancher of Placetta, was granted probation by Judge West in the superior court after having been sentenced to five years for passing a fraudulent check on J. H. Padgham, jeweler in Santa Ana. Judge West granted the plea for probation after severely lecturing the young man and among the conditions imposed by the court was one to avoid city life, dance halls and all similar pursuits and to stay upon his father's ranch, where his services are needed. The elder McLellan was on the witness stand in the superior court at his son's hearing. The Rev. F. M. Dowling, of Fullerton, and other acquaintances of young McLellan also appeared in court to urge leniency with the court in his behalf, and County Probation Officer R. R. Miller, after an investigation of McLellan's affairs, added his recommendation to the others. ANAHEIM LEADS AT OREGON A.C. Honorable Mention for a Number of Students. All of Whom Are Do- A TEST OF INSINCERITY Secretary Hughes lost no time in testing the sincerity of the conference at Washington. What he proposed is the very least that the world can expect, now that it has been put plainly before the parley. But much more should be hoped for. What is gratifying about the proposal is that it aims at action. There has been not unfounded apprehension that the conference might waste time in oratory and mere sentiment. Mr. Hughes skillfully prevented that by centering instant attention upon a definite proposition which can be disposed of, to the satisfaction of world opinion, only by action.
