IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a C Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic Hist the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JANUARY 17, 1880 Master Charles Kuchel was thrown from a horse on Wednesday evening and one of the bones of his wrist was broken. Mr. A. Merrifield of the Telegraph store has sold his stock of candy and stationery to Ferguson & Lake, who will hereafter keep a full supply of the same. A gold earring was found by Oscar Ludke on Center street the other day. The owner can have the same by calling at Luedke's jewelry store, proving property and paying for this advertisement. A hog raised by Mr. J. J. Guinn and which was killed by Mr. Menzel on Monday weighed 600 pounds when dressed. It yielded 200 pounds of lard. Mr. J. S. Smith, better known as "Section Smith," will plant his whole farm of 640 acres in Anaheim wheat. He has tested it thoroughly, and that he believes in it is evidenced by his determination to sow it to the exclusion of other crops. Eight carloads of sheep were sent forward to San Francisco on Tuesday by Messrs. Look & Ferguson. These gentlemen have bought in this vicinity and shipped 4800 sheep in the past few weeks and their purchases are not yet completed. A fine orchard of budded trees is offered for sale on small tracts. This is a good opportunity to acquire a homestead already beautified by noble orange trees. A horse, buggy and harness is also offered for sale. Eight carloads of sheep were sent forward to San Francisco on Tuesday by Messrs. Look & Ferguson.

The rainfall on last Saturday amounted to .26 making the total for the season 7.25 inches. The difference in the rain records kept at the depot and in town is quite marked as is annually the case. The gauge at the depot shows the fall to be only 5.51 inches. There is no such difference in the rainfall as the above figures indicate, and it resolves into a question as to which of the gauges give the correct measurement. The one used in town by Mr. Langenberger and the one at the depot are quite dissimilar in shape but they are both constructed on scientific principles, and ought to give similar measurements. But they don't. Mr. F. A. Gates, of Garden Grove, raised half an acre of Minnesota Early Amber cane last year, and was so successful that he has determined to plant fifteen acres this year. He will purchase an improved crusher and he believes that he can find a ready market for all the syrup he can make, if by the time the cane is ready to be crushed, the process of making sugar from the cane is not thoroughly understood. There is no doubt that sugar can be made from this kind of cane. Much of the syrup made a few months ago has granulated so that it will not run out of the vessel containing it. A very large area in Orangethorpe District has already been seeded with Anaheim wheat and planting is not yet finished. Mr. W. A. Springer will have 14 acres; Mr. Stone 75 acres; Mr. Meade 80 acres; Mr. Porter 40 acres; Mr. Walby 40 acres; Mrs. Browning 40 acres; Mr. Schulte 40 acres; Mr. Howell (on Bancroft's land) 100 acres; Messrs Metcalf and Goodhue (on Olden's land) 120 acres Anaheim wheat and 60 acres Senora wheat; On Newton Ingram's land 100 acres of Siberian wheat; J. J. Guinn 150 acres wheat and 250 acres of rye and barley. There are doubtless other farmers in the district who will sow largely of wheat. In Placentia District Mr. Crowther will sow 60 acres of Anaheim wheat, Hansen Bros. 40 acres and Mr. McFadden 2 acres. The last named gentleman will also plant 7000 grape vines, principally of the Muscat variety. Messrs. Goodman and Rimpau will sow 100 acres of rye and 75 acres of Anaheim wheat on the Watson farm. Mr. Henry Kroeger has cleared off the vines from five acres of his vineyard and will reset it with Malvoise vines. Mr. Kroeger plants this variety because he believes that land on which the Mission vine has grown for a long time should be reset with a different kind of grape. If one kind of cereal is raised on the same land for a succession of years, the soil is robbed of the fertilizing Mr. Henry Kroeger has cleared off the vines from five acres of his vineyard and will reset it with Malvoise vines. Mr. Kroeger plants this variety because he believes that land on which the Mission vine has grown for a long time should be reset with a different kind of grape. If one kind of cereal is raised on the same land for a succession of years, the soil is robbed of the fertilizing elements which are demanded by the cereal grown, and the crop will deminish in quantity every year. Mr. Kroeger believes the same principle holds good in viticulture, hence he will plant Malvoise, although he is a strong believer in the Mission grape and if he was to set out a new vineyard he would plant that variety. It is his experience that more brandy can be made from Mission grapes than from any other kind, and they are much more satisfactory in other ways. Those who do not concur with Mr. Kroeger in this view of the matter will at least admit that he has had ample experience in vin culture and that he must have good reasons for the faith that is in him. The Anaheim Literary Union met in the Presbyterian church on January 15, 1830. Miss Theresa Wille recited, "The Sisters," very nicely. Miss Mary Brier read "The Pioneer of the Pacific." Mr. George Shaffer read Will Carleton's "Uncle Tommy." Miss Parker recited "The Burning City," in a very creditable manner. Mr. Fergerson read, "A Boy's Composition on Animals," in his usual humorous style. Miss Fesenfeld read "The Romance of a Carpet." Mr. C. S. Miles read, "The African Chief." Queries were answered by Mr. Henderson. Recess was followed by the debate: "Resolved, That the North American Indians had a right to the soil." The speakers on the affirmative were W. H. Henderson and D. R. Payne. Negative J. M. Guinn and C. W. Campbell. The committee appointed to decide upon the merits of the debate were Mrs. Weil, Mrs. Ferdon and F. P. Marsh. They gave a decision for the affirmative.

This water will tend to replenish the underground supply, and if it should continue to fill the usually dry channel for a reasonable length of time the present winter it will prove a great blessing to those dependent upon pumping plants for their supply of water for irrigation.

He fired twenty-one guns which were heard in town and throughout the countryside. Alex participated in the siege of Sebastopol and long ago said the fall of Port Arthur was merely a question of time.

This he did. People with bills for broken glass will therefor hand them over to the club. The Board of city trustees met on Tuesday evening, present trustees Rust, Fletcher, Berdrow and Tyler; absent, Darling. Trustee Tyler tendered his resignation as a member of the Board owing to his removal to the northern part of the state. Same was accepted. No successor has been appointed. Marshal Steadman reported collections totalling $1,426.90. Treasurer Hartung reported a total of $3,905.09 on hand. Recorder Howard reported collections of $9 in fines during the closing month of the year. The public improvements committee reported laying water mains to new residences and that the city teams were engaged in hauling gravel. Ordinance No. 167, commonly known as the gas ordinance was read for the econd time and passed. It will be found elsewhere in this issue. Marshal Steadman was authorized to purchase two tons of hay. Another glorious rain has fallen: from all sides are heard the gladsome tidings that the year opens out with prospects of bringing bountiful harvest and prosperity to all. While it is true, that Orange county, because of its superb irrigation facilities, comes nearer being immune to drought than any other section of the southland, while extensive crops are harvested with even a minimum of rainfall, yet an old-fashioned wet winter is what makes us all smile, because it makes crops certain on upland and valley where irrigation canals do not extend with their life giving streams. Rain assures hay, grain and beet crops; these in turn disburse a golden stream of dollars into every nook and corner of the county. Rain replenishes the subterranean stratum in which the hundreds of pumping plants find their supply. This underground water has been gradually sinking during the past ten years, for it is true we have had ten pretty dry years in southern California. A good wet winter will tend to bring this water back to its former level, and that is worth millions to the country. Let u hope that the county, as well a the entire southland, is upon the eve of the most prosperous year it has ever known.
