OBSERVATIONS
BY A CONTRIBUTOR
PROFIT IN GOOD FRUIT
APRACTICAL orange grower, east of town, during the past six years has realized $52,000 from his 10-acre grove. This is better than $8000 a year. The reason for this is that this man feeds his trees through scientific fertilization. He knows when to irrigate and when to cultivate, which are also prime factors in raising good oranges. Of course, this orchard is an exceptionally good one; and there is no denying the fact that there are other acreages round about that do not pay one-half or one-quarter as well. In these cases it is found quite often to be true that the owner is what is known as a town farmer—one who believes in coming into the city for no other reason than to show his new car or do a little curbstoning. A man is wasting his time by letting the trees do all the work when he does not feed them right.
SAFE ANCHORAGE
WHEN the eight-mile jetty, or breakwater, is completed in the Long Beach harbor, thus duplicating the water frontage at San Pedro, these two ports jointly will no doubt afford the largest haven for ships in the world. Just what importance these two harbors will mean to the industrial world time alone can tell. But to anyone of an imaginary turn of mind, it can readily be seen that all of Southern California will be greatly benefitted by these two big ports of entry for deep sea vessels. Maritime trade from the four corners of the earth will be attracted here. The natural resources of this county will be more fully exploited, and many new enterprises yet unborn may become realities. The Southland has a bright future, and many old-timers believe this state has just begun to grow.
WATER FRONTAGE VALUABLE
EVERY available foot of space along the coast of Southern California will in time be utilized, where the same is suitable and adequate for landing places for vessels to unload their cargoes. The growth of Southern California is now so rapid that the handling of commerce is becoming almost acute. Even now a person can see a big vessel lying at anchor in some inlet, diverging from the main waterway, which has been dredged to permit
WATER FRONTAGE VALUABLE
EVERY available foot of space along the coast of Southern California will in time be utilized, where the same is suitable and adequate for landing places for vessels to unload their cargoes. The growth of Southern California is now so rapid that the handling of commerce is becoming almost acute. Even now a person can see a big vessel lying at anchor in some inlet, diverging from the main waterway, which has been dredged to permit the boat to make a landing. The shipment of merchandise by water from the Southland to the Orient and the Atlantic seaports in time will be greatly enhanced, owing to a lessened cost of transportation. This will be of decided advantage to growers of citrus products, especially oranges, which is the mainstay of Southern California.
DON'T START ANYTHING YOU CAN'T FINISH
A WELL-KNOWN authority on economics says that increased payrolls in industry in California is the first essential to constructive growth and development in this state. For instance, right here in Anaheim, when ten men are employed in a certain industry efforts should be made to bring about employment of twenty men in that particular industry by development of new markets, and in other ways, before encouraging establishment of new industries. This is good advice and should be heeded by all good local boosters and go-getters.
TAKING CANDY FROM A BABY
A NEARBY county has put the ban on slot machines and ordered them out. A sheriff said he had seen little children spend their lunch money in those slot machines, lose it and go hungry.
LISTEN, MR. ORANGE GROWER!
A TITLED English woman is attracting world-wide attention by abstaining from the use of food, as a health restorer, and who uses only fruit juices and fasting to heal bodily ills. The lady uses orange, lemon and grape juices and water in which vegetables have been boiled. The director of the nursing home where the treatment in being given holds the view virtually every disease may be cured by it. Now, if the prince of Wales will "yes" this, the fruit juice diet will be made unanimous.
WORLD ABOUT THE SAME EVERYWHERE
FIFTY members of a cult called "The Friends of Light" have pleaded guilty to charges of prancing about the wooded Bavarian Alps, clad in costumes of Adam and Eve. Each was fined from 100 to 150 marks for disorderly conduct.
A jealous wife, her husband a member, oblivious to the high ideals professed by the cult, notified the police. A raid followed while the men and women were singing and dancing in the moonlight on the shores of Lake Tegren, their clothes hanging on nearby bushes. The "Friends" protested against the rude interruption, but the blushing policemen took their names and ordered them to appear in court.
Only one of twenty arresting officers testified that he was not shocked by the nymph-like dance. Counsel for the cult explained that the organization sought to "develop and strengthen the noblest traits in mankind." Other persons testified that had the police failed to stop the performance, the White Caps of the

DRIVE AGAINST TARIFF
MRS. J. BORDEN HARRIMAN, of New York and Washington, and probably Paris and London, advanced on Washington recently to make a drive against the tariff. Mrs. Harriman and the ladies with her spoke particularly about the necessity of a reduction on sugar, household utensils, hardware, cutlery, etc., but it is a fair surmise that Mrs. Harriman and the associated ladies would not object nor be distressed if the tariff on female fripperies was also reduced at the same time, although they very carefully kept that out of their published announcements.
Ours is a great and extraordinary country, and the finest buying market in the world, but even the best of us can wear only one suit of clothes at a time and only one pair of shoes at a time, and it is frankly admitted that our own American workmen produce not only sufficient shirts, clothes, hats, socks, shoes and boots to clothe us all, but in addition a considerable amount available for export. It does not require a complicated diagram to make clear that if suits and women's clothes, boots and shoes are imported from the other side, that the opportunities for the purchase and use of our own American-made goods is accordingly curtailed. If the duty is reduced on these articles, as these ladies urge, the European manufacturer with his lower labor costs can undersell our American product, and there is but poor economy and logic in saving a few cents on a shirt or on socks, boots and shoes and putting our own workmen on the streets in a state of unemployment.
The quickest way for a doctor to lose a patient is to tell her it was only a minor operation.
All of those uplifters who wept so profusely when they were afraid that Countess Cathcart wouldn't get into the country, now ought to be compelled to go and sit through her play.

Eddie Martin, using Macmillan Gasoline takes First Honors at Brea Air Meet...
Brea Air-meet Saturday; that tells the story as the specs saw it. But there is another story, more vivid than the macular sweep of planes as they were driven on to victory feat. There is the story of long hours of labor in the oil industry—there is the story of the careful refining process in the petroleum industry—then there is the story of the laboratory, where men night and day, forever testing gasoline. In brief—there is the story of the manufacture of Macmillan Gasoline, that Grade Motor Fuel which, while behind the scenes in today's drama, yet played an important role.
In the Free-For-All-Speed Contest, flying low to the ground at a terrific speed, where a moment's hesitancy on the side of the motor would have spelled disaster, in the death-defying stunt contest—where smooth continuous power was essential—in every event entered by Eddie Martin, Macmillan Gasoline was that silent participant that furnished smooth continuous power—that power that lead him on to taking chances in no other Aviator would take, those chances which lead to ultimate victory.
The same Macmillan Gasoline which Eddie Martin relies on for the safe and continuous operation of his Aeroplane cars is sold by dozens of Independent Macmillan Dealers. Experience the same feeling of confidence in motor operation she has experienced—fill up your tank today.
