There was 2,283.13 bbls. of royalty oil which we have been unable to accept on account of lack of equipment, which will be delivered to us as soon as our equipment is ready to receive it. This would have been added to our oil income for this year, had we been able to take delivery. The Santa Ana River Development Company, our holding company for lands in Riverside and San Bernardino counties, during this year completed paying the purchase price on one piece of property purchased last year and bought out the water rights of all the users who were entitled to water from the Durkee ditch. Our capital investment therefore increased as follows: Payment on land of $11,500—Our half $5,700.00 Payment Durkee ditch rights $20,000—Our half 10,000.00 Capital Inv. 1931 $15,750.00 Capital Inv.

Our total payments to the S.A.R.D.Co.of $15,750.00 for capital investment,and $16,698.51 for general expenses were $32,448.51. The zanjeros have been very diligent in keeping the water accounts collected in advance.The amounts due contained only three accounts of more than approximately 1000 feet of open canopy line along the North line of property owned was replaced by 16 and 18 inch pipe lines the property owners paid $484.75. A 24 inch waste line from Orangett Crowther Tract was constructed at a cove.In addition to the above pieces of concrete were completed.WATER SPREADING. We are spreading from 500 to 700 inches at the Gomber Tract and Crowther Tract until we have the maximum amount that this will go a long way toward building TUFFREE RESERVOIR DREDGING. A recent inspection of this work by operations which we have been carrying in enlarging the capacity of the reservoir sixteen feet of mud having been removed reservoir.PUMPING PLANTS. Practically all our plants have been in 1932 season. Our plan of overhauling and is working out very satisfactory. That our stockholders may have some number of units operated the follow: Starting at the upper end of the system Tract which is located at the West end consists of one pit 8" in diameter and 8 Jackson 8" Vertical Centrifugal Pump and We also have a reservoir and booster plant the pit is boosted into the main canal at The next location is the Halliday Yorba Bridge. We have at this location side of the River and the water from the North side of the Railroad right-of-unit into the main canal. As this is a very shallow basin the of the season to 200 the latter part of the next location is at the corner where we operate four plants,and have booster unit These plants develop 120 ditional night water which the reservoir water at this location.The water from ditches and reservoir and both the Place this water. Taking all plants into consideration pump at the Head of the ditch,two do Tuffree Reservoir,and three booster units 2521 horse power. When we take in consideration that ment including labor and material for the units amounted to but $2,302.20 for the results for which we have been work Capital Inv. 1931 $15,750.00 Capital Inv.

Co. for 1931 were $16,698.51, which includes some rather expensive litigation now being tried, to maintain our rights to pump water from the Prado Basin. Our total payments to the S. A. R. D. Co. of $15,750.00 for capital investment, and $16,698.51 for general expenses were $32,448.51. The zanjeros have been very diligent in keeping the water accounts collected in advance. The amounts due contained only three accounts of more than one dollar, one of which came in on January 2 by mail. On some of the notes due the company from stockholders, account construction work, the makers seem to have declared a private moratorium as to interest payments. The undersigned members of the Board of Audit have carefully examined all books, papers and other records appertaining to the business of the company for the year ending December 31, 1931, and find that the same have been kept in a correct, neat, clear and intelligent manner, and that the foregoing is a full, true and complete report taken from the books covering the above mentioned period.

WATER DELIVERIES. We sold approximately $13,000.00 more water in 1931 than the previous year.$5,580.00 of this amount is accounted for by the increase in rates for the months of October, November and December water which leaves $7,400.00 additional water delivered.

It is for that reason that we feel that a few words of explanation of some of the items in the report will be appreciated. WATER DELIVERIES. We sold approximately $13,000.00 more water in 1931 than the previous year. $5,580.00 of this amount is accounted for by the increase in rates for the months of October, November and December water, which leaves $7,400.00 additional water delivered. We had a very heavy demand for water in March and April and the extra hot summer weather caused a considerable increase in sales during the summer months. This hot weather was also the cause of water being put on stock during the month of August. The question of going on stock for a month or two during the summer is a condition we feel we all must expect and arrange our irrigation plans accordingly; at least, until something is done to get more water into the main canal and relieve conditions in the upper districts. We have plenty of water for the Anaheim and Fullerton Districts but not enough for Placentia and Yorba Linda and unless more water is developed in the Prado basin it will be necessary to install a booster plant and pipe lines from some location on the river to take care of this overburdened district. Our water levels are continually dropping. At the end of this season water level at Gomber Tract was 190 ft. as against 181 at the end of the 1930 season and the water level at corner of Orangethorpe and Placentia Ave. was 165 ft. as against 161 at the end of 1930 season. This past year several of the Cities of the County in conjunction with Cities in Los Angeles Co., did a fine piece of work in voting the bonds for the Metropolitan Water District, which is the first step toward securing additional water. Several other plans are being considered by various groups of the County and something good may come out of them. One in particular, the reclamation of sewer water, deserves the earnest consideration of every person interested in water development. Your Directors are right on the job watching every move being made that will effect the water situation in this County and will not leave anything undone to protect our rights. CONSTRUCTION. As predicted in our 1930 report we completed concreting the main canal at Horse Shoe Bend the early part of February, 1931, and now have the entire canal concretized from the intake to the Tuffree Reservoir. The cost of this work this year was $14,920.72. The fact that this canal is concreted has been a big factor in cutting our cleaning costs, which were the lowest this year in our experience. We also replaced 9400 feet of open cement ditch on Placentia AVe., between Chapman Ave., and the Tuffree Reservoir with a pipe line varying from 30 inch to 42 inches in size at a total cost of $28,978.61, $9,400.00 or $1.00 per foot of which was paid by the property owners. This main line was parallelled by a distributing line varying from 24 inches to 12 inches in size, the cost of which was included in the above figures. $1,550.39 was spent on the intake to the Yorba Reservoir. This consists of 36' of 42 inch, 322' of 36 inch pipe and replaced the open dirt ditch. 506 ft. of open cement ditch on Orangethorpe Ave., was replaced by a 24 inch pipe line on which $773.35 was spent, one-half of which was paid by property owner.

Trojans will have another good year next season, marked the talk of Sports Writer Braven Dyer of the Los Angeles Times before the Rotary club at its regular meeting last Friday. Paradox of supplying satisfying sports news to readers of a thousand prejudices, such as ardent support of one college team to exclusion of all others (actual problem during football season), was explained by the scribe. Loyalty to a college colors the individual's point of view; hence favorable mention of some other college team might be misconstrued. Likewise, Olympic games authorities in Los Angeles have succeeded in depressing cost of participation by foreign athletics in the contests to be held here this summer more than the world-wide depression about which many have heard. It cost $1200 for an American athlete to participate in Europe four Anaheim, Calif., Jan. 28, 1932. Lately 1000 feet of open cement ditch on the South Branch center North line of property owned by E.

Inspection of this work by Our Board of Directors shows that the which we have been carrying on for the past three years have resultthe capacity of the reservoir more than 100 percent. As much as mud having been removed from most of the lower half of the PLANTS. All our plants have been overhauled and put in shape for the our plan of overhauling about 25 percent of our plants each year very satisfactory. Stockholders may have some idea where our plants are located and units operated the following list will enlighten them. At the upper end of the system we have in operation on the Shorb located at the West end of Horseshoe Pond Plant No. 1 which unit pit 8' in diameter and 83' deep. This is equipped with a Byron Technical Centrifugal Pump and has a capacity of 500 inches of water. A reservoir and booster plant at this location and the water from died into the main canal at this point. Location is the Halliday property which lies just East of the We have at this location six separate plants along the North water and the water from these plants is pumped into a reservoir on of the Railroad right-of-way from where it is lifted by a booster main canal. A very shallow basin the water falls from 800$inches at the start to 200 the latter part of the season. Location is the Gomber Tract, where we have three separate units develop 800 inches of water for the Anaheim District. This tract is South and West of the Atwood station. Location is at the corner of Placentia and Orangethorpe Aves. State four plants, and have a reservoir to store night water and a These plants develop 1200 inches of water and with the 400 adwater which the reservoir holds we can furnish 1600 inches of location. The water from the plants is pumped directly into the reservoir and both the Placentia and Fullerton districts get part of plants into consideration we operate 14 plants, besides a sand Head of the ditch, two domestic plants and the Dredge on the voir, and three booster units, totaling 22 units and a hook up of over. Take in consideration that our total repair bill on all this equiplabor and material for the complete overhauling of three of the and but $2,302.20 for the season we feel that we are now getting which we have been working. Orange County’s Cattle Test Well 11 Reactions Found in 446 Eovine During First Three Months of Campaign Only 11 reactors out of 446 cattle tested in 32 herds in Orange county were found during the first three months of the state's program for control of bovine tuberculosis. Results announced by State Department of Agriculture Director Dudley Moulten, show that 435 Orange county cattle passed the test, and only five affected premises were found. The program originated under an act of the Justification Act, is conducted with cooperation of the federal government. Total number of cattle tested this week reached 42,714, in 17 counties. Results were: Numbe rof herds, 2,930; cattle used, 49,047; reactors 2,667; infect-all-premises, 342. The eradication campaign is being carried on in 17 counties. The end of the first three months activities in the bovine tuberculosis control program, Director Moulton said, "show gratifying results in the number of animals tested in these counties. The cooperation obtained from the various individuals and agencies has been remarkable." In realization of the necessity of laying a firm foundation for a program of such fundamental importance and one probably requiring 12 years or more for its completion, from the standpoint of the entire state, early progress was not as rapid as might have been."

Local Residents To Ride Airship Will Hover Over Anaheim with Officials Aboard; Much Interest Aroused With the announcement that the dirigible Miss Enna Jettick would visit Anaheim Friday (Jan. 29) at noon and would take local officials and friends for short rides, considerable interest has been manifested by residents. Manager Victor Elmer of the Economy Shoe Store stated Thursday. The dirigible will arrive during the forenoon and anchor at the Fullerton airport to a mast transported here by fast truck from Los Angeles. The local store is sponsoring the visit of the airship. Soon after arrival Mr. Elmers and the two employees of the local Economy Shoe Store, M. O. Colbert and Thomas Spaenhauer, will board the ship and sail over Anaheim. A number of local residents have made application for rides and during the day will enjoy about 5-minute flights. The airship started Sept 24 from New Bedford, Mass., on its westward journey arriving at San Diego Dec. 16. During the past year it has traveled over 100,000 miles, visiting more than 200 cities, and carrying many notables on their first lighter-than-air flight. DRIVER FINED Badly worn tires not only can cause an accident, but may cost the driver a fine as a result of such a crash. Recently a Connecticut automobile owner was fined $25 for rusing badly-worn tires which a state traffic patrolman claimed were the cause of an accident.
