IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a C Ago. These Files Contain the only Authentic H of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange Coun 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK APRIL 19, 1879. The Anaheim Literary Union met in the Presbyterian church last Friday evening. The announcement that the society would discuss the new constitution brought out a large audience. It was decided to have a free discussion allowing all, whether members of the society or not, to participate in the debate. On motion the question was changed to read: Resolved, That the New Constitution should be adopted. Each speaker was limited to ten minutes. Eight speakers entered the list: Messrs. Payne, Beebe, Montgomery and Campbell in favor of the new constitution, and Messrs. Guinn, Halliday, Henderson and Mendelson against. The limited time allowed each speaker gave but little opportunity for extended argument. Most of the arguments were to the point. Some of the speakers, however, wasted the greater part of their time in preliminary remarks, and before they had fairly launched out on their subject were brought to on the call of time. The decision of the question was left to the audience. Only five hands went up for the new constitution. The vote in the negative was so overwhelmingly large that the president decided without counting hands. The society decided to take un the same question next Friday evening. The entire evening will be devoted to the discussion. Longer time will be allowed each disputant. It is to be hoped that the debaters will arrange to take up some one or two articles and not attempt to wander over the voluminous expanse of that wordy document—the New Constitution. The Board of Supervisors at their last meeting designated polling places and appointed election officers for the May election. The following precincts are in this end of the county: Anaheim—At Conrad's store. Inspector, George C. Knox; Judges John C. Fischer, E. W. Champlin. Garden Grove—At store of Con Howe. Inspector C. J.

Paid pastor, $480.90; sundry accounts, $61.30; church debt, $354.75. The debt on the church on April 8th was only $197.21. On Wednesday evening Victor Montgomery of this city and W. F. Heathman of Santa Ana spoke in Orange in favor of the new constitution. Their audience was small and the general sentiment in that section seems to be against it adoption. San Gabriel oranges were being nettled in town on Thursday for twenty-five cents a bucket—sixty-four in a bucket. Anaheim oranges bring twenty-five cents a dozen.

On Tuesday morning Mr. W. J. Hill felt a stinging sensation on the leg, as if an insect had bitten him. He paid no attention to the circumstances but soon became alarmingly ill with severe pains extending all over his body. He is still under the care of physicians, but we learn that he is out of danger. It is supposed he was stung by either a tarantula or a scorpion. The youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. R. Luedke died on Saturday. The funeral on Sunday was largely attended by sympathizing friends. Mr. S. J. Lowe is selling out his large stock of stoves and tinware for any price offered him. On Monday night Mr. Max Nebelung was awakened by hearing a noise in his place of business, and by the dim light he saw a burglar in the room. The burglar escaped through the open window, successfully cluding Mr. Nebelung's pursuit. A short conference between the officers of the Anaheim and Cajon Water companies was held on Saturday afternoon.

This association has marketed through the agent of the Southern California Fruit Exchange for the past six years, and has succeeded in paying top prices to its members. The following officers were elected for next year: J. P. Neff, president; J. B. Rae, vice-president; John A. Eyman, secretary. Treatment Prolongs Life of Timbers Fence posts and other farm timbers given preservative treatment will often last five or the times as long as they would untreated: Treatment of wood, says the Forest Service of the Department of Agriculture, may thus mean considerable saving in the cost of farm operations. Wood decay runs up farm expenses by requiring frequent replacement of farm timbers. Where highly durable woods such as cedar and oak are still plentiful and cheap, preservative treatment may not be economical Generally however, the use of preservatives will save money by greatly increasing the life of the wood Preservatives also make possible the successful use of home-grown posts of practically all kinds of wood. With the co-operation of agricultural experiment stations, farmers and industrial concerns, the Forest Service has been conducting experiments on preservative treatment for several years. Many kinds of woods in their natural condition will last only two or three years when in contact with the ground or in damp places.The experiments have demonstrated that with proper treatment posts or poles of non-endurable wood can be made to last 15 to 30 years. About 135 wood-preserving plants in the United States now are treating wood by the pressure process.Any one living within reach of such a plant would do well to consider having his timber treated there if satisfactory arrangements can be made,says the Forest Service.The work, however,can be done on the farm if desired.Fo rhome treatment,the use of coal-tar crecose with the open tank process is one of the best methods recommended by the Forest Service.The posts or other timbers are heated for one or more hours in the crecose at a temperature of from 180 degrees to 220 degrees Farenheit Then the wood and oil are allowed to cool together.The heating may be done in the evening,and the posts allowed to cool over night.Posts should be well seasoned and all bark removed before treatment. Other preservatives,such as zinc chloride or sorlum fluoride,have been found to give good results under certain conditions.
