IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper From Gazette of October 4, 1873. The regular meeting of Anaheim lodge, No. 207, F. and A. M., will be held this evening. The musical squawk of wild geese can already be heard at early morning on the Los Alamitos. Those in want of good baled hay can get some at a bargain at the ranch of W. M. McFadden. The present cold nights are said to affect the new wine very unfavorably by retarding fermentation. Henry T. Hazard, of Los Angeles, was married on Thursday to Miss Carrie Geller, daughter of Dr. Geller, of El Monte. The last steamer for San Francisco took a cargo of 400 bales of wool, 500 sacks of grain and 30 pipes of wine from Anaheim Landing. Ben Dreyfus will pay one cent per pound for grapes delivered in Anaheim. Two large wagon loads were brought from Los Nietos yesterday. W. S. Wright, of Anaheim; C. Fulson, of Los Alamitos, and J. Mellius, of Willmington, started for Prescott yesterday morning. They will accompany Dick Egan, whom they expect to intercept at San Bernardino. Fruitland Grange, located at Tustin City. Odd Fellows' Hall Building association. At the meeting of the stockholders of this association held last Saturday, the following gentlemen were elected a board of directors: John P. Zeyn, John Fischer, E. W. Champlin, S. H. Dyer and R. Heiman. The last named gentleman reported that 905 shares of the stock had been disposed of, thus leaving only 95 shares on hand. The amount paid and to be paid in a few days, by the stockholders is $7000. The association has only to borrow $3000, which is more than enough to pay all their indebtedness. The large cellar under their building has been rented to a wine company, and an offer was made by some parties to buy the unoccupied part of their lot. This consists of a strip 14 by 150 feet, and it is intended by the parties wanting to purchase to build a fire proof brick building, for what purpose we have been unable to ascertain. This proposition is being considered by the board. Altogether the prospects of the association financially and otherwise, are very flattering, and their success completely astonishes those doubting Thomases, who a few months ago doubtfully shook their heads and predicted that "the thing wouldn't be done." Pete hath taken unto himself a co.

Goodman left on the stage for San Francisco on Thursday. George C. Knox is making the preliminary survey of the route of the land company’s canal. W. I. Rumble has returned to Anaheim, and will resume the practice of his profession. A collossal statue of John Howard Payne, the author of “Home, Sweet Hame,” was unveiled in Prospect park, Brooklyn, on Saturday, in the presence of six thousand people. L. Halberstadt also left on the steamer for the metropolis yesterday. Richard Egan, of San Juan Capistrano, left on Thursday for Prescott, in charge of six hundred head of horses, the property of Chico Forster. A large meeting of farmers was held at Gospel Swamp school house last Monday evening. It was addressed by L. M. Holt, a correspondent of the Rural Press, on the subject of “Granges.” It was the intention to organize a grange in that district, but upon discussing the matter, they decided to abandon the idea for the present. However, twenty applications for membership were sent to the SUPERVISORS’ PROCEEDINGS Hearing on petition of W. F. Montgomery et al to vacate that certain alley in the fifth road district, was official plotting of said tract. Mrs. Albert Patton was appointed to have charge of Costa Mesa branch library located in the chamber of commerce room. Pete hath taken unto himself a partner. It is P. Granet, who has sold out his business at Gallatin and will hereafter make his home in Anaheim. The personal popularity of Messrs. Richards and Granet, together with the quality of their stock in trade, will attract a large business. Jacob Keller has become the owner of the two vineyard lots formerly owned by Dr. Heyerman. The sudden fall in the price of barley compelled F. R. Lafaucherie to take the steamer for San Francisco on Thursday. An Unpleasant Episode—We had our gallantry put to a severe test the other day. We were taking our post prandial walk through one of the grassy, unfrequented lanes near Reiser’s vineyard, when we overtook a squaw walking in the same direction. She had a beautiful dirty papoose strapped to her back, the weight of which seemed to impede her progress, as it was with some difficulty she staggered along. As we passed in close proximity to her, she tripped and fell and we gallantly assisted her to her feet. She evidently labored under the impression that we had caused her fall, for no sooner had she regained her equilibrium, than her features assumed an injured air and diving into her capacious bosom, she brought forth a half-filled whisky bottle and let it fly at our reportorial head. By extraordinary agility we avoided the missle, which shot harmlessly by. We did not stop to reason with her on the impropriety of her conduct, but hoisted all sail and steered for a safer haven. This is the first time that whiskey even flew to our head. This stupendous say, shows the great periment station on the methods which increased growth and worked out largely a hit or more the agricultural Jebeloped new in the land and greatly increased acre. Forest exp is asserted, will do forestry, and the intensive methods still has many virgin forest in methods of management not have to be done of the forest region.

The matter of accepting the report of the harbor commission was continued to October 2, at 11 a.m. HELP PEACE IN MEXICO With differences between the two sister republics about to be ironed out, it is timely to discuss future relations between the United States and Mexico. ANAHEIM GAZETTE GOvernment and people of the United States should do all possible in co-operation with the constituted authorities in Mexico, to preserve domestic peace in that republic. Attempts to start unwarranted bloody uprisings—such as prevailed for years—should be discountenanced on this side of the international line. The whole moral influence of the nation should be exerted to prevent a recurrence of the bloody chaos which scourged Mexico for years. It is shameful to confess that much of the plotting against the peace of Mexico was done on this side of the boundary. This never should be again. Measures should be adopted to drive all mischief-makers out of this country—or, if they be Americans, to restrain them. INTENSIVE FORESTRY WILL ADD TO WEALTH The practice of intensive forestry will increase the annual growth of saw timber in California from its present low rate of 156 million board feet to 3600 million board feet, according to experts of the United States forest service. The present growth in the pine region of the state is estimated at 76 million feet per year, which can be raised to 2700 million feet by the scientific management of the 16,800 acres of potential forest in this region. In the redwood belt, on the 400,000 acres of forest land, intensive forestry should produce 900 million board feet a year. This stupendous increase, foresters say, shows the great need for an experiment station in California, where the methods which will result in this increased growth may be developed and worked out. Our agriculture was largely a hit or miss proposition until the agricultural experiment stations developed new methods of handling the land and new practices which and Germany, the world's leading exporters of wrapping paper, the United States exports are negligible." TEN DAYS INTENSIVELY President Coolidge has announced that he will give some 10 days of intensive study to present aspects of the farmer problem in the United States, and to various remedies that have been proposed for the farmer's admittedly unsatisfactory condition. He has made no valglorious promises to solve the whole problem within this period, but simply proposes to make himself thoroughly familiar with the proposals that will probably be brought up before congress this winter. It is quite likely that even at the end of the 10 days President Coolidge will not give out any decision upon what is best to be done for this great industry. The industry and its ramifications are too complicated for snap judgment. The president will probably leave that sort of thing to the Brookharts and Johnsons whose minds—such as they are—are already made up. Calvin Coolidge ought to have a better realization than most legislators, of the real difficulties that face the farmer. He comes of farming stock, was raised on a farm and likes farming. He brings to the problem a degree of understanding and a real sympathy. Real farmers—like intelligent men in any other line of production—don't want or expect a panacea that will cure all present ills at a stroke and embalm the farming industry in protective swaths of government red taps. They want a policy that will enable the farmer to work out his own salvation, that will perhaps tide him over present difficulties, but—above all—will enable him finally to control his own industry, independent of interest on investment is deducted. The plight of the average general farmer is not so serious as many pessimists would have us believe. GROWTH OF ELECTRICITY Recent statistics show that American homes are becoming electrically lighted at the rate of amillion a year. In 1922, 1,000,000 new residential consumers were added to the 1921 total of seven and a half million. The electrical industry in the last seven years has increased the number of customers on central station lines by more than 6,000,000. Today electrical energy is being transmitted as far as 400 miles to meet the demands for service. There were at the end of 1922, 10,000,084 central station consumers in this country, of whom 78 per cent were residential consumers of light and power, 17 per cent users of industrial lighting and 4 per cent industrial power consumers. The remaining 1 per cent is not accounted for. This total of more than ten million was divided numerically, as follows: 8,467,600 residential customers; 1,839,900 industrial lighting customers; 429,584 industrial power customers. Statistics such as these are the strongest kind of argument to show that America, as was stated by Congressman Swing in Santa Ana, is becoming more and more dependent on electricity.

SAYS LATIN-AMERICA GOOD PAPER MARKET Manufacturers of paper in the United States are overlooking a good market when they fail to take into account Latin-American countries, according to the current issue of the National Bank of Commerce Monthly. With the exception of Cuba, the market has been but little developed, alreal farmers—like intelligent men in any other line of production—don't want or expect a panacea that will cure all present ills at a stroke and embalm the farming industry in protective swaths of government red taps. They want a policy that will enable the farmer to work out his own salvation, that will perhaps tide him over present difficulties, but—above all—will enable him finally to control his own industry, independent of politics. THERE IS ALWAYS A MAN An almost prophetic statement, hitherto unpublished, made by Warren G. Harding when a candidate for president, is reproduced in Collier's by Richard Barry. After pointing out how the steam shovel works in Marion, when the founder died, did not decline as popularly feared, nor when his successor died, but became "more prosperous than ever." Harding said: "So it goes in enterprises, big and little, even unto the sailing of the ship of state. There is always somewhere—either in the steerage of the vessel or in the obscurity of the 'works'—a man who, once clothed with that magical mantle of responsibility, will rise on the wings of vision to heights of power unknown before. If there is a single meaning in the presidency, it is this: That a spiritual majesty will clothe its occupant and grace him with the attributes that inhere, not in the man, but in the office, and which, being in the office, must be so fittingly expressed through the man that the world may feel and know that he is conscious of the temporary nature of his tenancy, and is therefore doubly jealous to guard and preserve the august power which only symbolizes the collective will of all the people." FARM INCOMES Practically all of the greater banking and financial institutions of the country are now issuing monthly bulletins touching upon economic conditions, finance, securities, etc. One of the most complete of these reports is that issued by the National City bank of New York. More and more attention is being given to agricultural products and agricultural economics. The September report of that great metro- SAYS LATIN-AMERICA GOOD PAPER MARKET Manufacturers of paper in the United States are overlooking a good market when they fail to take into account Latin-American countries, according to the current issue of the National Bank of Commerce Monthly. With the exception of Cuba, the market has been but little developed, although these countries are the most logical customers for paper product turned out in the United States. Glassine and grease-proof papers are said to be used extensively in the Latin-American countries. In getting this business, the United States is said to have an advantage on account of the quality of paper it can furnish and the service it would be able to give. A considerable portion of this business is now going to the Scandinavian countries and Germany end the manufacturers of the United States would have to compete with these countries in the matter of price, but it is believed that this might be successfully handled. "European countries have an advantage over the United States in so far as the price of wrapping paper is concerned," says the article, which continues. "The cheap labor which is predominant in most of the manufacturing countries of Europe enables the manufacturers to deliver paper into international markets at low prices in comparison with cost of production. On the other hand, the United States offers wrapipng paper of a quality unsurpassed by any other producing country, at a price commensurate with quality." In comparison with the volume of exports of the Scandinavian countries Practically all of the greater banking and financial institutions of the country are now issuing monthly bulletins touching upon economic conditions, finance, securities, etc. One of the most complete of these reports is that issued by the National City bank of New York. More and more attention is being given to agricultural products and agricultural economics. The September report of that great metropolitan institution gives much of its space to agricultural products and to farm incomes. It refers to a canvass recently made in the greatest of all corn states, Iowa. The canvass or survey severed 207 farms in Calhoun county and 70 farms in Humboldt county. The farmers reporting were grain farmers, that is, the farmers who sell their crops for cash and do not feed to live stock. The 207 Calhoun farmers averaged a labor income of $1200. The highest return of any of these farmers was $3931. On the other hand one farmer had a net loss in the same year of $2203. All the reports were for the year ending March 1. Six of the 207 failed to have anything to show for their labor, 10 made in excess of $2,000 and 30 made $500 or less. On a basis of 160 acres in each farm, these farms represented a total inventory of $52,369 in 1922, $53,422 in 1923. The Humboldt county farms made slightly better showing. The return for labor and management showed an average of $1389. One farm owner showed a net loss of $1764, while another, a tenant, lost $811. While it is evident that a $50,000 investment should guarantee a far better earning capacity it still must be borne in mind that the figures as to labor returns are made after the in- BURDENS LIFTED From Anaheim Backs—Relief Proved by Lapse of Time Backache is a heavy burden; Nervousness, dizziness, headache.
