Earthquake Faults Unearthed in County Flood Control Surveyors Reveal Two in Santa Ana Canyon The Orange county flood control organization, under the direction of Paul Bailey, is credited with uncovering a piece of news which so far as can be learned, never has been published in any newspaper of this section. Information regarding two earthquake faults, a few thousand or perhaps a million years old, has been unearthed in the Santa Ana canyon, according to Bailey. The faults are sealed and perhaps would have slight significance to residents here, except for their possible relation to the water conservation program, according to Bailey. E. K. Soper, geologist of the organization, is tracing the ancient disruptions through the canyon. Any comotion that may have been caused among the canyon inhabitants by the ancient tremors died out centuries ago, it was pointed out, and the faults probably have remained unchanged since their original slipping. According to Bailey, Orange county's interest lies in the fact that two possible dam sites probably have been eliminated by the discovery of the old faults. Although no fear is felt that new disturbances might occur, he explained that possible weakness in the underground structure at these points sidereation to some of the other locations would make it wise to give more conditions which are being studied. Seully's Point and a site just below it are the ones which are affected by the discovery. The Chino-Elsinore and the Whittier-Puente faults are the ones which cross the canyon. Bailey stated: The former passes under the alluvial fill to the east of the possible Prado damsite, but would have no effect on this location, he declared. The second fault goes through the Puente hills and crosses Brea and Carbon canyons. Grape and round shot. Our artillery was now unlimbered and pulled over to the enemy's side of the river, where the brisk firing of our men made the enemy's firing wild and uncertain. Under this cover the wagons and cattle were forced across the river. While this was going on, our rear was attacked by a bold charge, which was repulsed. In an hour and twenty minutes our baggage train had all crossed, the artillery of the enemy was silenced, and a charge was made on the hill behind which the enemy was placed. Half way between the hill and the river the enemy made a furious charge on our left flank, and at the same time threatened our right. The First and Second battalions were thrown into squares, and after firing one or two rounds, drove off the enemy. The First battalion was then ordered to rush for the hill, supposing that would be the contested point; but great was our surprise to find it abandoned. The enemy pitched his camp in the hills in view, but when morning came he was gone. We had no means of pursuit, and scarcely the power of locomotion, such was the wretched condition of our wagon train. The latter was taken along for the purpose of feeding the garrison, intended to be left in the Ciudad de Los Angeles, the report being that the enemy intended to burn and destroy every article of food if we reached that town. On January 9, we began our march over the plain between the Rio San Gabriel and the Rio San Fernando. After marching five or six miles, the enemy appeared on our right. We inclined a little to the left and continued our march. Flores opened his artillery, and we halted fifteen minutes to silence them, and the order "forward" was again given, when the enemy charged on our left flank and our rear simultaneously. Our fire scattered them. The Californians, the most expert horsemen in the world, stripped the dead horses on the field without dismounting and carried off most of their saddles, bridles, and all of their dead and rounded on horseback to the hills to the right. We decided to camp on the river San Fernando and enter the town in the morning. Ben Pierce To His Declares Greatica Is Its T Ben F. Pierson's department foranta Edison Co.

In this hope we were mistaken. The wind blew a hurricane (something very unusual in this part of California) and the atmosphere was filled with tiny particles of fine dust, so that one could not see and but with difficulty breathe. The wind continued to blow violently on January 7. The enemy should have taken advantage of this to attack us. Our weapons were chiefly firearms, his lance, and I was quite certain that in such a gale of wind as then blew, the difficulty of loading our arms would have proved a serious matter. The Santa Ana is a fine, dashing stream, knee deep, and about 100 yards wide, flowing over a sandy bed. In its valley ar enymy valuable vineyards and corn fields. It is capable of affording water to a great many more. On its banks are considerable tracts of uncultivated land within the level of irrigation. After travelling ten miles, we came to Los Coyotes, a rancheria owned by a rich widow lady, who has just married a handsome young fellow who might well pass for her son. These people we found at home, and we learned from them that the enemy expected to give us battle the next day. Indeed, as we approached the rancheria, several horsemen drew off, reconnoitering us so closely as to make it doubtful if they were not some of our own vaqueros. On January 8 we passed over a country destitute of wood and water, undulating and dipping towards the ocean, which was in view. About 2 o'clock we came in sight of the San Gabriel river, and small squads of horsemen began to show themselves on either flank, apparently intending to dispute the passage of the river. Our progress was slow, our oven being poor and silenced a little to the left and continued our march. Flores opened his artillery, and we halted fifteen minutes to silence them, and the order "forward" was again given, when the enemy charged on our left flank and our rear simultaneously. Our fire scattered them. The Californians, the most expert horsemen in the world, stripped the dead horses on the field without dismounting, and carried off most of their saddles, bridles, and all of their dead and rounded on horseback to the hills to the right. We decided to camp on the river San Fernando and enter the town in the morning. On January 10, just as we had raised our camp, a bag of truce borne by Mr. Cells, a Castillian; Mr. Workman, an Englishman, and Alvarado, the owner of the rancheria at the Allosoa, was brought into camp. They proposed, on behalf of the Californians, to surrender their dear city of the Angels, provided we would respect property and persons. This was agreed to; but, not altogether trusting to the honesty of General Flores, who had once broken his parole, we moved into town in the same order we should have done if expecting an attack. It was a wise precaution, as the streets were filled with desperate and drunken fellows, who saluted us with every term of reproach. Our men marched on and crossed the ravine leading into the public square. The Californians from the hill fired upon the vaqueros. The rifles were then ordered to clear the hill, which a single fire effected, killing two of the enemy. We were now in possession of the town. Toward the close of the day, we learned that Flores with 150 men, chiefly desperadoes, had fled to Sonora, taking with him four or five hundred of the best horses and mules in the country, the property of those who had been his friends. On January 11 it rained in torrents all day. I was ordered to select a site for a fort, capable of containing 100 men—and so placed as to enable a small garrison to command the town and the principal avenues to it. Many men came in during the day and surrendered. I laid off work and before the night of January 12 broke the first ground. The population of the town and its dependencies is about 3000; that of the town itself, about 1500. It is the center of wealth and population of the Mexico Californian people, and has heretofore been the seat of government. Close under the base of the mountains, commanding the passes to Sonora, cut off from the north by the pass at Santa Barbara. It is the center of the military power of the Californians. Here all the revolutions have had their origin, and it is the point upon which any Mexican force from Sonora would be directed. It was therefore desirable to establish a fort, which, in case of trouble, should enable a small garrison to hold out till aid might come from San Diego, San Francisco, or Monterey, places which are destined to become centers of American settlements. Orange County Herd On January 8 we passed over a country destitute of wood and water, undulating and dipping towards the ocean which was in view. About 2 o'clock we came in sight of the San Gabriel river, and small squads of horsemen began to show themselves on either flank, apparently intending to dispute the passage of the river. Our progress was very slow, our oxen being poor and our wagons (the ox carts of the country) with wheels only about two feet in diameter. The enemy did not yet discover his order of battle, and we moved to the river in our habitual order of march when near the enemy, viz; the Second division in front, the First and Third on the right and left flanks, respectively; the guard and a company of volunteer carbineers in the rear; our cattle and the wagon train in the center, making for them what the sailors wittily termed a Yankee "corral." The artillery were distributed on the four angles of the rectangle. This order of march was adopted from the character of the enemy's force, all of which was mounted. We had no cavalry, and the object of the enemy was to deprive us of our cattle by sudden charges. The river was about 100 yards wide, knee-deep, and flowing over quicksand. Each side was fringed with thick underbrush. The approach on our side was level; that on the enemy's was favorable to him. A bank 50 feet high ranged parallel with the river, at point blank cannon distance, upon which he posted his artillery. As we neared the thicket, we received the scattering fire of the enemy sharp-shooters. At the same moment we saw him place four pieces of artillery upon the hill, so as to command the passage. A squadron of 250 cavalry just showed their heads above the hill to the right of the battery, and the same number were seen to occupy a position to the left. The Second battalion was ordered to deploy as skirmishers and cross the river. As the line was about the middle of the river, the enemy opened his battery, and made the water fly with Orange County Herd Makes Good Record By S. S. SCHUTTE, Cowtester What was formerly the high production record for the Orange county dairy herds for the month was recently smashed, according to the report of the Orange County Farm Bureau, in the herd test of the Tekstra Brothers, whose ranch is located on the Newhope road. The record has exceeded all others for the new testing year. Mr. Tekstra, as a result of investigations, has given his cows just the ordinary, good care, but his system of feeding was found in no manner to differ from that of the accepted standards of the leading authorities on the subject in the country. Mr. Tekstra is a capable husbandman. His herd of 45 milk cows, with two dry cows included in the calculations, made an average production for the month of 43.3 pounds of butterfat and 1119 pounds of milk, which record is not expected to be exceeded by another herd soon. Mr. Tekstra feeds his cows from 30 to 35 pounds of silage per day. He is fully aware of the extremely high value of a succulent feed to take the place of the grass pasture. He is very careful to keep the silo filled every day during the year that it is possible to do so. He also gives his cows about 15 pounds of alfalfa hay, which he buys at $24.50 a ton. He feeds a well balanced ration consisting of ground barley, cocanut, linseed and cottonseed meal. Where Mr. Tekstra gives most proof of his correct management is the fact that he supplies the grain to the cows according to their individual needs and production. This is the key to low cost milk, the results of which will almost invariably bear out the truth with cap- Ben Pierson Talks To Kiwanis Club Declares Great Danger to America Is Its Thoughtless People Ben F. Pierson, of the industrial relations department of the Southern California Edison Company, addressed the Kiwanis Club at its weekly luncheon Tuesday. A Curtis Case was chairman of the day. Mr. Pierson declared that the real danger to America today lies in the objection of the people to think. "The public is convinced that as far as men's minds and governments are concerned the world is adrift," said the speaker. "A check on our libraries shows that Americans are the world's greatest readers. Yet they are among the world's poorest thinkers." The average individual is inclined to take things as they are without question. He makes no attempt to apply the things he learns to himself. "Showing the lack of general interest in public affairs that prevails, only 50.2 per cent of the registered voters cast ballots at the last presidential election. And this vote was cast in the greatest nation in the world, for the greatest ruler in the world." "Civilizations have arisen in the past and have fallen. They did not endure because they had not the character foundation necessary for endurance." If Kiwanis can promote a love for able cows coupled with right management. Mr. Tekstra is proud of his herd, and rightly so. He admits that they are making good financial returns. country, a love for our great men and a love for our institutions, it will be filling its full place in society." The speaker paid a glowing tribute to the American legion and declared that those who did not get into the World war owe the Legion men a full measure of devotion. Farm Centers to Hold Meets During Month A number of interesting sessions of the farm centers in Orange county have been promised for the coming month. The schedule of meetings for the month will be opened by the Cypress Farm Center with a pot-luck supper. Buena Park is planning a big banquet to institute their annual meeting at which the officers will be elected for the coming year. This center does not expect to hold regular meetings in the future, but function through a board of directors similar to the system used by the Fullerton-Placentia center. The business men of Orange have arranged to take over the program of the Villa Park-Olive Farm Center, showing the neighborly feeling which exists between the townspeople and the country business people. Garden Grove will present an innovation by initiating their new members. This will be the first farm bureau initiation in Southern California, and will doubtless prove interesting to old members as well as those who "trod the burning sands." Interesting programs are being arranged for the other centers. Cuba declared a holiday in honor of the coming of President Coolidge. Evidently some of those Latin-Americans must like American "imperialism." Fertilization of Sweet Potato Crop The quality of product, the quantity produced and the cost per pound are three economic factors which very materially enter into the success of any farmer, whether it be a sweet potato grower or any other. Now that it is almost time to prepare for the 1928 sweet potato season, the question arises as to the effect of proper fertilization on this crop, with special reference to the three economic factors mentioned above. Here in Orange county some very comprehensive fertilizer experiments have been outlined for this coming season, using the same schedule of fertilizers as will be used in Los Angeles county. With the information secured from the two counties available to growers later on, many of the questions as to the cheapest and best materials to use will be answered. During the past year F. H. Ernest, assistant farm advisor in Los Angeles county, has secured some interesting information. In the Artesia district he conducted experiments with the following materials: cover crop, ammonium sulphate, fish meal, dried blood, sludge from the Pasadena City farm, a material containing 69 per cent nitrogen, 2.83 per cent phosphoric acid, and 1 per cent potash, and straight potash. The check plot, which was not fertilized, produced 15,294 pounds of potatoes, while the different mixtures and combinations gave increased yields in varying amounts. Ammonium sulphate and fish meal combined produce 23,882 pounds per acre of "sweets," an increase of 8588 pounds. The addition of potash to this combination resulted in about the same production. Dried sludge at the rate of 1500 pounds per acre gave a yield of 15,776 pounds of potatoes per acre, while dried blood at the rate of 1600 pounds per acre gave a yield of 27,941 pounds of "sweets." These figures are interesting and should serve as a guide in outlining any fertilizer program in Orange county. With sweet potatoes, fertilization is very necessary on land which has borne this crop for several years.
