VOLUME LI MORE BUILDINGS RUMORED FOR EASTSIDE SAMUEL KRAEMER SAID TO HAVE MADE EXTENSIVE PURCHASES OF REALTY Now Owns Two Corners at Center and Olive, It is Reported, and Has Purchased All the Ground Between the Masonic Temple and Philadelphia Street — Stroup-Barnes Company Will Open Largest Furniture Store in the County in the Arnold Kraemer Block. That Samuel Kraemer expects to continue building on East Center street until his investments reach a million dollars, is a report now current in the city. It has been known for some time that he had purchased several valuable pieces of property in that section, and it was presumed that his intention was to improve them with substantial buildings. The property on the southwest corner of Olive and Center, formerly owned by Mr. Beddig, Mr. Falkenstein and other to a statement by J. A. Knapp, of Garden Grove. Harvesting of chili peppers is already well under way in the Garden Grove district, Knapp said, and the next few weeks will be active ones for those interested in the industry. Indications are that there will be above 780 tons of the Mexican seed variety, Knapp said, with a carry-over of about 150 tons from last year. In 1921, there was a yield of 1750 tons, which included a carry-over of 750 tons from 1920. The golden harvest from the Mexican seed variety this year will probably be about $200,000, it was said, with the 2000 acres of pimentos bringing in about $250,000. Other varieties, it was explained, are expected to bring in excess of $150,000. WALNUT YIELD WILL BE GREATEST IN HISTORY Strong Competition From France and Italy Expected Convinced that they must face active competition from France and Italy, but assured of one of the best crops in the history of the state, Orange county walnut growers returned from the second annual field day, held at Santa Barbara. "It was made clear at Santa Barbara," said Harry W. Lewis, former president of the Santa Ana Walnut Growers' association, "that California BIG INCREASE ENROLLMENT AT SCHOOLS AT SCHOOL AT SCHOOLS" First Day's Attendance With Mass More to Average Daily Attendance the 1200 Mark—Fees Employed Building Next Year Registration 459.

It has been known for some time that he had purchased several valuable pieces of property in that section, and it was presumed that his intention was to improve them with substantial buildings. The property on the southwest corner of Olive and Center, formerly owned by Mr. Beddig, Mr. Falkenstein and others, is now the property of Mr. Kraemer, it is said, and he contemplates erecting a business block thereon. This property extends from Olive street to the Resh building, and has a frontage of 150 feet on Center. The only building now on the site is a small cement office building. It is also reported that Mr. Kraemer has recently purchased a section of the Rimpau orange grove on the east side of Olive street, and it is probable that a building will be erected thereon. It was rumored some weeks ago that Mr. Kraemer was negotiating for all that section between the Masonic temple and Philadelphia street, having a frontage on Center of 150 feet and now it is positively stated that he has acquired the property and will shortly build on it. This property is now occupied by an oil station, Harry Riley's second hand car emporium and the city fire department building. J. L. Gates a year ago purchased fifty feet adjoining the Masonic building with the intention of constructing a business house thereon, but it is reported that he has sold it to Mr. Kraemer. What manner of buildings Mr. Kraemer intends erecting on these various properties is not known at present, but a hotel and an opera house are mentioned as possibilities. That they will be substantial and costly structures is a foregone conclusion, as he does not build anything else. It is reported that work of constructing the building on the Philadelphia street corner will begin as soon as the contractors have finished with the Arnold Kraemer building. That there is a demand for business houses on East Center street is shown by the fact that nearly all the rooms in the Samuel Kraemer and Arnold Kraemer blocks have been leased. All the upper story of the Samuel Kraemer building has been taken, and the eight lower rooms are being occupied almost as soon as the workmen get them finished. Rooms in the Arnold Kraemer building are also being snap- Italy Expected Convinced that they must face active competition from France and Italy, but assured of one of the best crops in the history of the state, Orange county walnut growers returned from the second annual field day, held at Santa Barbara. "It was made clear at Santa Barbara," said Harry W. Lewis, former president of the Santa Ana Walnut Growers' association, "that California will harvest one of the greatest walnut crops in her history. The nuts will not only be larger but the yield will be greater. "At the same time, it was pointed out by the speakers who addressed the growers that France and Italy will make a determined bid for American consumption this year." "Sales Manager Webber told us that foreign competition will be keen, and added that we are also confronted by unsettled conditions as regards shipping. It was announced that rail conditions are far from satisfactory, but extensive shipments will be made by water if this becomes necessary. "It was believed that first shipments will go forward the latter part of this month, with the ultimate clean-up in March or April of next year. On the whole, it was said, the California walnut crop is in excellent condition." Walnut association speakers featured the morning session at Santa Barbara, including W. T. Webber, George Farrar and H. C. Sharp. The speakers emphasized the conditions that would obtain this fall and gave hopeful advice to the many growers. After a sumptuous barbecue served at noon, the growers witnessed a dusting demonstration conducted by Ralph Smith, University of California, who has perfected a machine that mixes the raw materials in the hopper, thus saving the grower considerable margin in cost of mixing, overhead, etc. Farm Advisor D. T. Batchelder, of Santa Barbara county, conducted the growers to adjacent walnut groves to show the relative root developments in soils receiving insufficient water as compared with optimum application. The root systems of different trees were bared to demonstrate how feeder roots multiply under favorable moisture conditions and are discouraged under drought conditions. J. W. Nelson urged the intelligent use of the soil auger. GARDEN GROVE LAND In this city on the oak 1160, an increase over 1200 year ago.

That there is a demand for business houses on East Center street is shown by the fact that nearly all the rooms in the Samuel Kraemer and Arnold Kraemer blocks have been leased. All the upper story of the Samuel Kraemer building has been taken, and the eight lower rooms are being occupied almost as soon as the workmen get them finished. Rooms in the Arnold Kraemer building are also being snapped up. Three prominent business firms have taken leases in this building. The corner room, it is stated, on Emily and Center, will be occupied by a drug store, and the large double room adjoining it on Center, will house one of the Chaffee stores. The Stroup-Barnes Furniture company now occupying the Joseph Backs building on North Los Angeles street, has leased a large section of the building, and will move their store into it. This firm will open the largest furniture store in Orange county in this building on December 1. Mr. Stroup is now in San Francisco purchasing the goods which will increase the stock to $100,000. The ground room floor has a frontage of forty feet. There is a basement under it. The firm has also leased a 90-foot frontage of the second story, which will be connected with the lower floors by an elevator. BIG CHILI CROP With prospects for a strong demand for the product, and with an estimated crop of more than a half million dollars, chill and pimiento pepper growers of Orange county are making active preparations to harvest one of the best yields obtained here in the past five or six years, according growers to adjacent walnut groves to show the relative root developments in soils receiving insufficient water as compared with optimum application. The root systems of different trees were bared to demonstrate how feeder roots multiply under favorable moisture conditions and are discouraged under drought conditions. J. W. Nelson urged the intelligent use of the soil auger. GARDEN GROVE LAND SELLS FOR HIGH FIGURE E. S. Gregory, of Fullerton, has purchased the 10-acre Walter Bastian orange orchard at Garden Grove. The trees are nine years old and full bearing. The property is improved with a five-room modern bungalow and is one of the best properties in this county. The deal was made through the real estate agency of an Anaheim firm and the consideration is $50,000, cash. This is the highest price recorded for an orange grove in the vicinity of Garden Grove, and the fact that the purchase was made by a man who is an old resident of this county and familiar with citrus conditions proves his faith in the future prosperity of the county. Mr. Gregory is a well known building contractor, having constructed hundreds of houses in Fullerton and vicinity in the past few years and is continuing to build more. The fact that he has purchased an orange grove is a new departure and one which he feels assured will prove profitable, he having considerable knowledge of the industry.

Attendance at the grammar schools in this city on the opening day was 1160, an increase over the first day a year ago. This will be largely increased before the week is out. Last year the attendance on the opening day was 1024, and the average daily attendance during the term was 1145. It is expected, therefore, that the average attendance this year will be considerably over 1200. To accommodate the increased enrollment and relieve the overburdened teachers four new rooms have been fruit which will exhibit at the fair should be placed in storage at Taylor's warehouse, 1644 East Fourth street, Santa Ana, when picked, stating it is for fair purposes, storage charges to be paid by the fair committee. This applies to peaches, plums, grapes and other perishable fruit which must be picked between now and fair time. Harlowe Halliday, placed on the job by the farm bureau, is working among the various farm center fair committees and helping them with suggestions and enthusiasm for their displays. Now is the time when farm center community exhibits must be definitely arranged for, and any committee desiring Mr. Hailliday's help should call on him at the farm bureau office in Santa Ana. Farm center committee are to meet to pick out their spaces in the main exhibition tent. ANAHEIM TEAM AGAIN DEFEATS PASADENA Locals Will Play at Elks' Convention for State Championship For the third consecutive year the Anaheim Elks' ball team has defeated Pasadena in the semi-finals and won the privilege of representing the southern half of California in a game with the victors from the north for the state championship. Two years ago the boys played Sacramento at BOND ELECTION ENDORSED BY C. OF C. DIRECTORS REQUEST THE CITY TRUSTEES TO ASK VOTERS FOR FUNDS Completion of Municipal Park and City Hall, and Extension of Street Work Necessitates Raising of More Money—Chamber Recommends $100,000 for Construction of Park, $40,000 Additional for City Hall and $20,000 for Improvement of Streets. It is probable that a bond election will be called in a short time for the purpose of raising funds to complete the municipal park and the city hall and for street improvements. All this work is necessary, and the best way to raise the money is by the issuance of bonds. It has not yet been definitively decided the amount that will be asked for, but this point will probably be determined at the meeting of the trustees tonight. The directors of the Chamber of In this city on the opening day was 1160, an increase over the first day a year ago. This will be largely increased before the week is out. Last year the attendance on the opening day was 1024, and the average daily attendance during the term was 1145. It is expected, therefore, that the average attendance this year will be considerably over 1200. To accommodate the increased enrollment and relieve the over-burdened teachers four new rooms have been added and the corps of teachers increase to 44. Still there is not room enough to handle the schools in the most efficient manner, and before the opening of next term a new building will probably be added. The board, it is understood, contemplates the erection of an eight or ten-room annex to the Fremont school. It will probably be built on the campus in front of the old structure. It is stated the building can be put up without a bond issue. Following is a list of the teachers: Junior High School—Principal and arithmetic, W. C. Maxwell; eighth grade opportunity room, Ernest G.

DEFEATS PASADENA Locals Will Play at Elks' Convention for State Championship For the third consecutive year the Anaheim Elka' ball team has defeated Pasadena in the semi-finals and won the privilege of representing the southern half of California in a game with the victors from the north for the state championship. Two years ago the boys played Sacramento at the state fair and lost. A year ago they defeated San Francisco at San Jose during the state convention of the Elks. This year they will play the northern champs at Santa Monica in October, while the state convention is in session in that city. Their opponents will be either Sacramento or Modesto, but they all look alike by Billy Knott's invincible team. The banner will remain in Anaheim for another year. The three-series scheduled with Pasadena for the southern championship ended Sunday at the close of the second game at the Vernon ball park, Anaheim having won both games. The boys defeated the Crown City bunch Sunday by a score of 10 to 6. The game appeared to be something of a slugging match, Anaheim getting twenty hits off the Pasadena pitchers, and Hughes allowing fourteen hits. Several hundred rooters went up to Los Angeles with the boys and helped them win the victory. TRIM BOUNDARY OF PROPOSED NEW CITY Influenced by two petitions protesting the proposed boundaries, the board of supervisors meeting Tuesday cut down by a trifle more than halt the area which proponents of the incorporation of Placentia had included in their petition. By so doing, the board slashed the assessed valuation of the proposed new city from approximately $16,000 to $2,000,000. It was stated. Horace Lucy I. Ipsen and George J. Holmes presented the incorporation petition which bore approximately seventy-five other signatures. It was believed that even with the reduced boundaries as finally set, the proposed city included in the bouncing between 1500 and 2000 persons inasmuch as the territory eliminated is sparsely settled. Attorney E. J. Marks, of Fullerton, representing C. C. Chapman and other persons owning property on the east It is probable that a bond election will be called in a short time for the purpose of raising funds to complete the municipal park and the city hall and for street improvements. All this work is necessary, and the best way to raise the money is by the issuance of bonds. It has not yet been definitely decided the amount that will be asked for, but this point will probably be determined at the meeting of the trustees tonight. The directors of the Chamber of Commerce idscussed the matter at a meeting Friday night, at which members of the city board were present, and unanimously endorsed the project. The chamber favors an issue of $160,000, believing that such a sum is necessary to complete the work. Of this sum,$100,000 was recommended for the construction of the park,$40,000 for completion of the city hall,and$20,000 for street improvements. Extra street work has been made necessary by extension of the city limits. Paving street intersections is also a necessary job that the city must finance. The recommendation of the Chamber of Commerce directors will be considered by the trustees at the regularmeeting tonight. It is understoodthe trustees favor calling an election for bonds,但no definite amount has been decided upon. Should a bond issue be made now,the new property taken into the city recently by annexation would help pay the debt. There has been a large increase in assessed valuation by reason of this annexation， consequently it would probably not be necessary to increasethe tax rate in order to take care ofthe indebtedness.

ORANGE COUNTY FAIR With a half dozen cups, many special prizes, more than $2000 in cash, and ribbons offered, prospective exhibitors at the Orange county fair are alert, and planning and preparing for their part in Orange county's $100,000 products show which opens Wednesday, Sept. 27. Livestock exhibitors are preparing their stock, farm bureau members are gathering their choicest fruits for storage until fair time and watching their other products carefully pending the day of harvest. The women folks are completing their needlework articles for display, and checking up on recipes for cooked foods which they plan to prepare. In fact, the entire county has something to display, and the principal business now before everyone is to play and prepare for their particular part in the big exposition. Fruit exhibitors are advised that Horace Lucy I. Ipsen and George J. Holmes presented the incorporation petition which bore approximately seventy-five other signatures. It was believed that even with the reduced boundaries as finally set, the proposed city included in the bounding of between 1500 and 2000 persons inasmuch as the territory eliminated is sparsely settled. Attorney E. J. Marks, of Fullerton, representing C. C. Chapman and other persons owning property on the east side of the proposed city and also several oil companies, presented one protest. Attorney H. C. Head, of Santa Ana, on behalf of H. H. Hale and others on the north side owning from 800 to 1000 acres, filed the other adverse petition. Chapman protested against having his oil land on the east side of the proposed rit yincluded in the boundaries. He had no objection to the inclusion of sixty acres of citrus property on the west side, between Placentia and Fullerton. In general, the protestants objected to inclusion in the projected municipality on the ground that such inclusion was assertedly planned merely for tax-raising purposes, without any material benefits accruing to the property owners. The supervisors continued the hearing until next Tuesday. In the meantime the boundaries will be checked and signatures of petitioners will be verified. It is probable that Tuesday the board will set a date for the election on the incorporation proposal. There is one kind of man that runs away from temptation, but runs so slowly that temptation has no trouble in overtaking him. JAGGERS BOUND OVER Trial of C. O. Jaggers and C. J.

ORDERED TO PHILIPPINES Major Neill E. Bailey, U. S. A., who has been stationed at Monterey for some months as post quartermaster, has been ordered to the Philippines, and with his wife and daughter, Miss Dorothy May, will depart from San Francisco some time next month. His duties in the islands will probably keep him there two years at least. Major Bailey was lieutenant in the Arizona regiment during the Spanish war, was a dollar-a-year man at Washington during the world war, and was dispatched on a secret mission for the war department to Europe three years ago. For more than a year he has been stationed at the Presidio at San Francisco. He was transferred to Moterey early in the present year. Major Bailey spent his school days in this city, and his many friends here wish him and his family the best of luck in their new home. RANCHER KILLED IN RUNAWAY ACCIDENT HENRY J. SCHULTZ THROWN FROM WAGON AND FATALLY INJURED Accident Occurred on the County Road, West of Town, Monday Night Horses Frightened by Automobile Bumping Into Rear of Wagon—Body Brought to Backs & Terry's, Where Inquest Was Held by Coroner Brown Yesterday Morning. Accidents caused by runaway teams are extremely rare, since the horse has been practically crowded off the highway by automobiles, but they occasionally occur. Henry J. Schultz, a rancher living west of this city, near Stanton, was almost instantly killed in a runaway on the County road on Monday night. Mr. Schultz had driven to Buena Park for a load of tomatoes which he expected to deliver to customers the next day. When nearing his home an automobile driven by Guide Paidel A bond election report time for the bonds to complete and the city hall meetings.

Representatives of Orange, River side and San Bernardino counties directly interested in the tri-counties exhibit at the state fair at Sacramento received the congratulation of friends upon their success in assembling exhibits that carried away the silver cup for the best exhibit of citrus fruits by groups of counties, special award for feature exhibit and fourteen first prizes and one second. Cash prizes totalled $163. The tri-counties received the following awards including a special award of a silver cup which was the first prize for the best feature exhibit by group of counties: Sweepstakes for best exhibit of citrus fruits; blue ribbon and $10 for best box of Valencia oranges; blue ribbon and $10 for best box of Eureka lemons; blue ribbon and $10 for best box of Lisbon lemons; blue ribbon and $15 for best of Marsh seedless grapefruit; blue ribbon and $5 for best exhibit of fresh dates; blue ribbon and $4 for best exhibit buckeye beans; blue ribbon and $4 for best exhibit of lima beans; blue ribbon for best exhibit Henderson bush lima beans; blue ribbon and 14 for best exhibit of alfalfa seed; blue ribbon and $3 for best exhibit twelve pimiento peppers; blue ribbon and $3 for best exhibit of twelve chill peppers; blue ribbon and $10 for best exhibit of silver ore, and special award of a gold medal, blue ribbon and $5 for best exhibit Tungsten ore, including special award of gold medal, all of the foregoing being first prizes. The exhibit was also awarded a red ribbon and $5, second prize, for best exhibit of five varieties English walnuts. PRINTERS HAVE PICNIC Members of the Orange County Printers' association and their family are extremely rare, since the horse has been practically crowded off the highway by automobiles, but they occasionally occur. Henry J. Schultz, a rancher living west of this city, near Stanton, was almost instantly killed in a runaway on the County road on Monday night. Mr. Schultz had driven to Buena Park for a load of tomatoes which he expected to deliver to customers the next day. When nearing his home an automobile driven by Guido Paiedel, of Tustin, overtook his, and as his wagon carried no tail lights, the driver did not see the rig in time to avoid a rear end collision. The auto bumped into the wagon, and although the impact was too slight to cause much damage the horses took fright and ran away. The light wagon was overturned and Mr. Schultz thrown onto the pavement. One report states that he was trampled by the horses, but according to a story told to the Anaheim police, he was thrown in front of the auto, which ran over him. He was bruised either from hoofs or wheels, when picked up by the occupants of the auto, and died an hour or two after the accident. The body was brought to the undertaking parlors of Backs, Terry & Campbell, and Coroner Brown notified. The coroner arranged an inquest for 9:30 o'clock yesterday morning. Mr. Schultz was 58 years of age, and was well known on the westside. ARRIVE AT HOME SAFE AFTER STRENUOUS TRIP Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Paxton Encounter Difficulties on Road From Montana Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Paxton, of Long Beach, have returned from an automobile trip to their old home in Montana. Mr. Paxton is a brother of Mrs. A. G. McKey, of this city, and on the return trip they stopped a couple of days at the McKey home, arriving here Sunday night. They made the trip from Bozeman, Montana, in six days, although they had a strenuous journey, experiencing various kinds of weather, climate and roads. On the trip up north they struck some fierce road conditions and Mr. Paxton succeeded in breaking two springs on his car, and on the return trip he broke a third one. In Idaho the win was on one of its periodical rampages and carried away the top of Mr. Paxton's Dodge car. The top was so badly damaged that he abandoned it. PRINTERS HAVE PICNIC Members of the Orange County Printers' association and their families made merry at Orange county park, Saturday, the annual "playtime" of the association. One hundred and twenty-five enjoyed the affair, and guests were present from San Bernardino, San Diego, Riverside and Los Angeles. A baseball game between the supply men of Los Angeles and the association attracted much attention. At the end of the fifth inning the supply men scored 11 to the printers' 2. Naturally, the printers let their guests beat them. There were foot races for the men, women and children, with a feature 100-yard dash between two supply men, Earl Pfeifer, representing Blake, Moffit & Towne company of Los Angeles, and Paul Jones, of the Zellerbach company, also of Los Angeles. The race was a "dead heat," with both men coming in "neck to neck," leaving the championship to the decided at some future time. At 6 o'clock, picnic baskets were unpacked and the contents spread on the long tables 'neath the live oak trees, where everyone feasted until the last delicious morsel disappeared. Dancing, to the music of an Edison phonograph, loaned through the courtesy of Carl G. Strock, of Santa Ana, was enjoyed during the evening. trip from Bozeman, Montana, in six days, although they had a strenuous journey, experiencing various kinds of weather, climate and roads. On the trip up north they struck some fierce road conditions and Mr. Paxton succeeded in breaking two springs on his car, and on the return trip he broke a third one. In Idaho the wind was on one of its periodical rampages and carried away the top of Mr. Paxton's Dodge car. The top was so badly damaged that he abandoned it, making the balance of the journey in an open car. They found this a serious mishap when they struck the hot sands of the desert country, with nothing above their heads to shelter them from the blazing sun, and with the wind blowing so hard they could not keep their hats on their heads. Some of the worst roads found on the entire trip were encountered on the return after they had reached the California line on the Midland trial. However, they got through safely to God's country, but the hot sun of the Mohave desert left its mark on Mr. Paxton's nose. While in Montana Mr. and Mrs. Paxton and a party of friends made a tour of Yellowstone national park, and were delighted with the trip, and they are both very enthusiastic over the scenic beauty of the park. They spent three days in the park, and say that a person should take about a week in order to see everything. They entered the park at Gardiner and came out at the Yellowstone entrance. Mr. Paxton is an automobile mechanic and is employed in the John Rankin garage at Long Beach. One of the things that impressed Mr. Paxton was the fact that on the entire trip, which covered over a month, he did not see one wrecked machine on the road.
