IN THE DAYS OF L Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 6, 1881 Flowing water has been obtained on Mr. Rose's land at San Gabriel at a depth of 170 feet. Great preparations are being made in Los Angeles for the celebration on September 5 of the centennial anniversary of the founding of the Pueblo. Governor Perkins will deliver the oration. The windmill for which Mr. Simon B. Smith is agent is getting to be a favorite in this market, not only for its power and simplicity but also for its neat appearance. Persons in want of a mill should interview Mr. Smith. Mr. D. Strodthoff has a six-year-old budded tree (Mission variety) which bore six hundred oranges the past season, and what is equally remarkable, the fruit was of more than average size, and some of the oranges which were picked last week were still quite juicy and well preserved. The Rev. F. H. Robinson, of Sacramento Presbytery, will occupy the pulpit of the Presbyterian church one week from tomorrow. After morning service a meeting of the congregation will be held. All are urged to attend, as business of importance will come before it. There will be no service tomorrow. Mr. A. T. Julius Voigt has some very precocious brown leghorn pullets. One of them commenced laying four months and eighteen days from the day it was hatched, and two days later it was cackling over an egg about one-third larger than its first attempt. Is there any other hen in the county with a better record than that? A delegation of twenty-seven members of the San Bernardino fire department will arrive in Anaheim tonight to take part in the Mr. A. T. Julius Voigt has some very precocious brown leghorn pullets. One of them commenced laying four months and eighteen days from the day it was hatched, and two days later it was cackling over an egg about one-third larger than its first attempt. Is there any other hen in the county with a better record than that? A delegation of twenty-seven members of the San Bernardino fire department will arrive in Anaheim tonight to take part in the firemen's celebration tomorrow. The six carloads of excursionists from Los Angeles will arrive about 10 o'clock in the morning, and an hour later there will be a grand parade along the principal thoroughfares. After the parade, coaches will convey the crowd to the Tivoli Gardens, where the usual festivities will be kept up until late in the evening. If the culture of sugar beets and the manufacture of sugar therefrom ever gets to be a prominent industry in this county, the bee-keepers will have to "corral" their "stock" closer than they do now, if the said "stock" develops such a penchant for beet sugar as the French bees have. The Parisian refiners of beetroot sugar recently petitioned the Prefect of the Seine to banish the bees from the neighborhood of the city, and their prayer has been granted. One refiner estimates his losses at 25,000 francs. In olden times English tramps prayed for deliverance from Hell, Hull and Halifax. This is explained by the chronicler, Fuller, who relates that there was a peculiar "Gibbet Law" offering special facilities for the hanging of idle and dishonest in Halifax, while they avoided Hull because it was "terrible unto them as a town of good government, where vagrants met with punitive charity." "Punitive charity" is good, and might be applied with advantage in this erring and straying season in many places outside of Hull. The board of town trustees met in regular session on Wednesday. The committee on public improvements was instructed to procure a temporary watering trough for the lot recently donated to the town, and run a pipe thereto. They were also instructed to otherwise improve the lot. The tax levy was fixed at fifty cents on each one hundred dollars valuation. The total assessed valuation of property in the town is $324,917. This will give a revenue of $1,624.58. After transacting other routine business the board adjourned until Wednesday, September 7th, at 3 o'clock p.m. In the course of a trip which extended beyond San Diego to the Mexican line, Mr. C. E. Leonard failed to find any spot which in natural beauty or latent promise is to be compared to Anaheim and this view is concurred in by his companion, Mr. Cowan. There can be no question that this is destined to be one of the most flourishing sections of California. The cause which has heretofore retarded its growth will, ere another summer rolls around, no longer exist, and then we predict that the onward, progressive march of Anaheim and vicinity will be a wonder to ourselves as well as to our neighbors. Workmen are now engaged in inclosing two thousand acres of the Alamitos ranch to use as a cattle range. Mr. J. W. Bixby, the owner, intends to go east in September and upon his return Workmen are now engaged in inclosing two thousand acres of the Alamitos ranch to use as a cattle range. Mr. J. W. Bixby, the owner, intends to go east in September and upon his return he will drain the tule land on the rancho and sow it with alfalfa. The manufacture of cheese on the Alamitos will in a short time be carried on extensively, a large cheese vat having already been installed. The demand for the cheese is so great that Mr. Bixby finds it impossible to keep his product on hand for more than ten days. This fact should give encouragement to our Garden Grove neighbors who are trying to establish a cheese factory in that neighborhood. Personal—Mr. John Bancroft of Anaheim has now the management of the Press at Yuma A. T.—Mr. J. J. Hill came in from Tucson on Tuesday for a few days recreation. We acknowledge a call from Dr. J. A. Crane of Santa Ana and Mr. Jackson of Tustin. The latter gentleman has recently bought the Harris orchards. Mr. Arthur Heinmann and family spent a couple of days in town during the week. Mr. Richard Heinmann and family are in town, the guests of Mrs. Boldt. Mr. A. E. White has been compelled by illness to "lay off" for a short time. He will go to the landing next week. He has secured the services of a first-class blacksmith to manage the shop in his absence. Alfalfa, a grass notoriously prolific wherever it can be grown, seems to attain its greatest perfection in the moist lands of this county. There is in Anaheim a luxurious tract of alfalfa from which nine crops were cut last year and it is considered a very poor tract that will not yield five cuttings each year. A most noted instance of its value is shown in the following statement: Mr. J. W. Bixby has on his ranch in Yorba precinct a tract of forty acres fenced, two acres of which is in alfalfa and twelve acres in brush land, on which there is very little feed. For the first two months and a half there have been in this enclosure 54 horses, 53 cattle and 12 bucks, a total of 119 animals. They are in the very best condition and the pasturage is yet plentiful and apparently sufficient to carry the stock for an indefinite length of time. The owner will in the coming winter increase the alfalfa tract to one hundred acres.

These Files Contain the Only izens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Ploneers. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 9, 1906 Fred Backs is placing some very handsome furniture in Capt. Williams' new residence. Miss Gertrude Kennedy has returned from a pleasant visit with friends at Santa Barbara. L. A. Evans reports the sale of the W. P. Webb place of two acres on East Broadway to Joseph Schindler for $750. Fayette Lewis left yesterday for Berkeley to take a course in the university law school. Ted Dickel left on Mondays to take a mining and civil engineering course. John Johnson left on Tuesday afternoon for his mines at Dale. He goes by team and will be absent several months, but will return in time to vote at the election. John Bush killed a four-pronged buck Saturday. He was accompanied by his cousin, Oscar Acre. On Sunday John regaled his friends with choice samples of venison. Landlord Zeigler has purchased the Commercial hotel property from Herr Deeker, paying $7,500 therefor. Mr. Zeigler contemplates many improvements and will endeavor to give this city a first-class hotel. Miss Bella J. Walker, sister of Prof. Walker of the high school, is here visiting with that gentleman. Miss Walker is principal of the county normal school at Owasso, Michigan. She will remain probably three weeks. Mrs. Hattie Milchell was a visitor in town this week from California Visitors From Many Lands Many countries of the world sent motoring visitors to California last year, it is noted by the Automobile Club of Southern California in a state report on the 91,247 non-resident permits issued during 1930. California's most numerous visitors were from the state of Washington; Oregon came second, and Arizona third. Illinois and Michigan led the other states from east of the Rockies, the report indicates. Hawaii sent 270 cars last year, while one car each came from Egypt, Australia, Guam, Haiti, New Zealand, Nova Scotia, Peru, Siam, Venezuela, according to the records of visitors who applied for non-resident permits. California Lumber Figures for 1930 The preliminary report on lumber cut for California and Nevada for 1930, prepared by the U. S. Fores. Service, shows a 26.7 per cent decrease over the cut for 1929 and is the lowest since 1921. A total cut of 1,512,787,000 board feet was reported from mills with an output of 50,000 feet or more of lumber a year, as compared to 2,063,229,000 feet for 1929, which represents approximately the two billion board feet at which California production has held during the seven-year period since 1923. The decrease in the total cut from 1929 was distinctly greater in the pine than in the redwood region, and in both regions the decrease came mostly from the species that are less desirable commercially. Landlord Zeigler has purchased the Commercial hotel property from Herr Deeker, paying $7,500 therefor. Mr. Zeigler contemplates many improvements and will endeavor to give this city a first-class hotel. Miss Bella J. Walker, sister of Prof. Walker of the high school, is here visiting with that gentleman. Miss Walker is principal of the county normal school at Owasso, Michigan. She will remain probably three weeks. Mrs. Hattie Milchell was a visitor in town this week from Pasadena. While here she signed the petition for street paving. She is the owner of 320 feet of frontage in the heart of the city and her signature leaves but a few feet unsigned in the main business block of town. Joseph Helmsen has at his store a lady's cream-colored cloak which was found on the street in front of his place of business on Tuesday. If the fond mamma of the child wishes to secure it she may do so without expense to herself by calling up Joe, proving property and taking the garment away. Edward Kraemer brought in to the Chamber of Commerce exhibit room from his ranch on Monday morning a curiosity in the shape of two perfectly formed watermelons joined together lengthwise. The melons are of fair size, and are of a variety which Ed pronounces the best grown in his neighborhood. Governor Pardee was in Santa Ana on Monday, having come down from Los Angeles in company of Al Lindsay to look after his political fences. He was cordially received, but it is a toss up whether local delegates are for Pardee or Gillette. There seems to be little choice in Southern California as to the governorship. Madame Modjeska sustained an accident while at the home of a friend in Los Angeles some days ago, which has necessitated the canceling of her social engagements. The madame slipped upon a polished floor and sustained severe injuries. She was expected here this week to visit friends but her coming has necessarily been delayed. Charles Schindler, the well-known cement contractor, lies seriously injured at his home as a result of an assault made upon him by a tramp at his residence Thursday afternoon. The tramp, who was in the back yard filling a bottle at the hydrant, was ordered off the premises. He hurled the bottle at Schindler and struck him with a heavy pair of iron pincers, knocking him down and kicking him. Schindler's skull was fractured and he was otherwise badly beaten. Marshal Steadman placed the trump under arrest. Constable Llewelyn later took him to the county jail. Judge Howard set the examination for Friday morning. Regular meeting of the public library board was held Monday evening. Present, Messrs. Spencer and Federman, Miss Ella P. Rae, Miss E. Kate Rae; absent, Dr. Houck. Besides the regular business the yearly report ending June 30, 1906 was presented as follows: Expenses—books, $177.50; periodicals, $32.15; salary, $180.00; other expense, $18.14; total $407.49.

Orange county makes a proud showing among the counties of the state which have so far reported their assessments to the state board of equalization, as is shown by a compilation of figures. Its increase in taxable wealth during the year amounts to $1,744,000. Out of the twenty-eight counties which have so far reported their assessments only three counties—Los Angeles, Fresno and San Joaquin—show a greater increase. The increase of this county is greater than that of Sacramento by a quarter of a million dollars, and many of the northern as well as the southern counties are distanced by the little giant of the south. Riverside hangs upon our heels doggedly, coming to the front with an increase of $1,422,000. These two counties show an increase of over $3,100,000, which is one-sixth of the total increase of the twenty-eight counties already reporting. Yet Riverside is fifteen times our size, and its increased railroad mileage necessarily exceeds that of this county by a very large figure. San Bernardino reports an increase of $637,000, which is small as compared with its two neighboring counties, but is up with many other counties north as well as south. San Diego has not yet reported, but will probably show a large increase. San Joaquin county shows an increase of $2,682,000, and Fresno one of $2,178,000. Los Angeles county's phenomenal increase of $60,000,000 is unequaled in the history of the state. We shall shortly have Comptroller Colgan's complete figures when our yearly comparison with other counties may be made. Enough is already known to indicate the colossal strides being taken by the southern portion of the state in property values. The record of Orange county is a proud one. Santa Fe...cool summer wav C.
