Henry Knapke was in town from Oxnard this week, and accompanied the Knights of Columbus to San Diego on Sunday to assist in establishing a lodge in that city. He returned to Oxnard on Monday evening. He holds a responsible position in the sugar factory there and says it will crush 200,000 tons of beets this year. There are 13,000 acres of beets at Oxnard all looking well, and the factory will draw half the Chino crop which amounts to 11,500 acres. Henry is a self made Anaheim lad, who is making good. May the best of good fortune attend him. Six coachloads of Knights of Columbus went to San Diego on a special train on Sunday to participate in the installation of a new K. C. Council in that city. Knights were present from Los Angeles, Long Beach, Somona, Santa Monica, Oxnard, Anaheim, and other points in Southern California. Among those from this city were Jos, Backs sr., Peter Dauser, Sam Kraemer, C. F. Grim. Frank Walters, A. Rimpau, George Bender, A. Silbernagle, Adolph Backs, Nick Hugo, Wm. Heving, Otto Heving, John Shaller, Ed Kelley, Peter Hussey, Robert Geisler, Leo Bushard, L. Denni, and Job Denni of Los Alamitos. James Conliff of Fullerton and others. A council of sixty members was organized and visitors were hospitably entertained. The party returned at 11:30 Sunday evening. Philadelphia hit Johnson hard in a game at the Quaker city on Monday, and the local twirler was relieved by Falkenberg. Philadelphia made 11 hits and shut the senators out 4 to 0. As usual the tail-enders could not bat, getting only 4 hits. The game was errorless. This was Johnson’s second appearance in the box this season and both times he was withdrawn in favor of older pitchers. Dr. and Mrs. G. H. Bailey of Phoenix, A. T., parents of Mrs. Henry Kuchel, and their daughter, Miss George Bailey, arrived yesterday on a visit to relatives and friends. They will spend the summer at Tent City and other points along the coast. Dr. Bailey and family were formerly residents of Anaheim but eight years ago he was compelled to leave on account of asthma of which for years he has been a sufferer. He went to Mazatlan, Mexico, and later to Phoenix, where the family has since resided. At the Del Sur ranch, southwest of this city, at high noon on Tuesday, Miss Ethel A. Wilcox was married to Frederick H. Hauptman of Santa Ana. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. A. S. Wilcox, and a niece of Ella Wheeler Wilcox, the author. Rev. F. W. Mitchell of the Presbyterian church officiated and only members of the immediate family were present. There were in the river at D of the ditches few irrigators.

Mitchell of the Presbyterian church officiated and only members of the immediate family were present. Frank Tausch returned on Thursday evening from Texas after an absence of eight months. Frank is glad to get back to California and says the Texas weather is warm enough for a revolution, which seems to be doing business across the border. He was offered the position of generalissimo in one of the insurgent's regiments, with a chance of being elected to an important office after the revolution is over, but declined because he wanted to come and see his California girl. Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Sandilands leave for New York shortly to join Mr. Sandilands' mother, who is returning from London, and the party will later have an outing in the Adirondacks. Carl Entenmann and eight members of the active section of Los Angeles turnverein departed some days ago for Frankfort-on-the-Main to participate in the international turning contests. Mrs. C. O. Rust, Miss Elsie Rust and Percy Rust left this week for Owens valley for an outing of several weeks. Mrs. J. Strodthoff and daughter, Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth, have returned from an outing of several weeks duration in San Francisco, Berkeley, Mill Valley and other points north. Willie Wallop and Fayette Lewis accompanied by their best girls spent Sunday at the Landing. Wm. Falkenstein and little son, Stanley, spent last week with relatives and friends in San Bernardino. Mrs. Wm. Lawrence who has been visiting relatives and friends here and at Pasadena for some weeks past returns today to her home in Cochise. Wm. Loftus of the Oil Wells has purchased a 40 horse-power touring Kissel Kar from Skinner and Dickenson of the Anaheim Garage. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JUNE 30, 1883 We had a call on Thursday from Mr. M. Welsh, the superintendent of the Southern California Packing company of Los Angeles who is making the grand tour of the several localities in this and adjoining counties contracting for fruit for the cannery. While here he bought the apricot and peach crops of the Messrs. Browning, Schorn and Cowan, paying 1¾ cents per pound for apricots and one cent per pound for peaches. This is a more liberal price than is paid by the Colton or Riverside canneries, and as the managers of the Los Angeles cannery do not claim to be any more philanthropic than their neighbors, and pay the price they do because the fruit is worth it, there is good reason for believing that the Gazette’s announcement of a combination between the San Bernardino canneries, made some weeks ago, had a good foundation, notwithstanding the indignant and vehement disclaimers made by the managers. We are pleased to learn from Mr. Welsh that the orchards and vineyards of Anaheim are unexcelled by any in Southern California. He believes that much of the excellence of the fruit is due to the correct system of irrigation in vogue here—the copious flooding of the soil in winter. His experience is that summer-irrigated fruit is deficient in flavor, weak and watery, but that it is impossible to put too much water on the land in winter. The capacity of the cannery is now 10 ton of fruit per day, or 50,000 cans a week. One hundred and fifty persons are employed. There were seven hundred and thirty-seven inches of water in the river at Bedrock crossing on Wednesday and probably none of the ditches fed by this water conveyed more than 200 inches to irrigators. The oldest inhabitant does not recollect that there ever has been less than 1100 or 1200 inches at the crossing. The scarcity is due principally to the fact that more water is being taken from the river every year by the ditches at Riverside and Falls 17,500 Feet. There were seven hundred and thirty-seven inches of water in the river at Bedrock crossing on Wednesday and probably none of the ditches fed by this water conveyed more than 200 inches to irrigators. The oldest inhabitant does not recollect that there ever has been less than 1100 or 1200 inches at the crossing. The scarcity is due principally to the fact that more water is being taken from the river every year by the ditches at Riverside and below that settlement. It is probable that the Anaheim and Santa Ana companies will agree to use all the water alternately; that is the Anaheim company to take its own and Santa Ana’s water one week, and the Santa Ana company to take its own and Anaheim’s water the succeeding week, and alternate thus until the water increases in the river. The directors of the Anaheim Water company will meet the directors of the Santa Ana company this morning to talk over this proposition, and also to discuss the advisability of draining a swamp existing above Bedrock crossing by which means it is thought a couple of heads of water may be developed. Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Higgins celebrated their silver wedding on Tuesday evening and some of their near relatives came quite a distance to rejoice with them on the occasion. They are older than they were a quarter of a century ago, of course, but are hale and hearty enough to give promise that they will live to celebrate their golden, if not their diamond wedding. On last Monday morning Horace Bell editor of the Porcupine, was sitting in his office in the Temple Block, Los Angeles, when the door opened and Chief of Police King entered quickly with a cocked pistol in his hand which he pointed at Bell and fired—not however, until the latter had grasped King’s wrist and disconcerted his aim. Bell threw his assailant to the floor, and about the same time his son Charles came to his aid and struck King with a printer’s mallet, King was severely injured. A complaint for assault has been lodged against him. The provocation was a series of attacks on King in the Porcupine. Rev. J. A. Emery will leave on Monday for the east, under an appointment from Bishop Kip, on business connected with the diocese. He will be gone about four months and during that time will visit all the large cities in the older states. He will preach tomorrow evening at the Episcopal church. During his absence services will be held regularly by the Rev. Sheridan. J. G. Bowers and others have filed in the county recorder’s office notice of location of the Workingman’s Petroleum mining claim in the NW¼ of section 10, township 3, south range 9, west. J. W. Snow and others also filed notice of Santa Ana Petroleum mining claim on NE¼ of same section. These oil claims are but a few miles from Anaheim. The Anaheim Calisthenic and Minstrel troupe will give a performance at Kroeger’s hall on the evening of the Fourth. An interesting and varied performance will be given, and at its close the ball will begin. The admission to both the performance and J. G.

Mr. Fred Hartung and sister leave for San Francisco this afternoon. Mr. Hartung will be gone two months and will visit Oregon and Washington territory before returning. A loud explosion heard about 9 o'clock on last Saturday night was the result of an attempt to blow up a house on First North street occupied by Chinese. The explosive was placed under the house, it is supposed by some rival Chinese. A few boards were broken and dishes shattered but no one was hurt. Among the samples of wine exhibited at the Viticultural convention last week were the following from Anaheim: H.-Werder, White Mission; F. Hartung, Berger 1882 and Angelica Mission 1872. On and after July 5th the steamers Constantine and Los Angeles will be added to the Los Angeles line, giving a steamer every other day from San Pedro to San Francisco instead of one in five days as at present. Visitors to Anaheim on the Fourth will find at the Anaheim Bakery on Center street a splendid lot of pies and cakes of all descriptions. Buy some for the children. We beg to acknowledge the receipt of an invitation to a ball at San Fernando on the Glorious Fourth, given by the San Fernando Social club. The Los Angeles Common Council refused to make an appropriation for the celebration on the Fourth. They are a nice lot of patriots. Mrs. Theodore Rimpau and daughter, Miss Matilda, left yesterday by steamer for Santa Barbara where they will spend the summer months. Conferences Aid Stabilizing Move Report Submitted to Brock by Division of Markets Outlines Year's Progress Conferences looking toward the organization of more than a score of California's agricultural industries to enable them to meet present production and marketing conditions on something like even terms, were attended by 6,217 growers in 25 counties during 1932, according to the annual report of the state division of markets, submitted to A. A. Brock, director of the state department of agriculture. The division is a unit of the department. All told, there were 77 of these meetings held during the year. The net result was the development of a procedure which assisted in the organization of the San Francisco Milk Trade Board, the United Prune Growers, Inc., the California Prune Pool, the Los Angeles Milk Arbitration Board, Santa Clara County Milk Trade Board, Bay Region Milk Producers Council, Sonoma County Hop Growers Association, Antelope Valley Hay Growers association and Imperial Valley Hay Growers association. The application of the procedure also helped to settle milk wars in San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Jose and Santa Rosa. The Division engaged in 24 separate organization projects during the year, a number of the industries setting up their own funds voluntarily in order that the work might progress. Three outstanding surveys were undertaken during the year, two of which, were recently completed. These two covered the almond and the grapefruit industry. The third, covering the citrus industry, is still under way. In every instance the organization work was instituted by the industry Liberalize Quake Relief Regulation Advices from Washington, indicated that amendments of the earthquake relief law now permit the Reconstruction Finance corporation, through the Unified Rehabilitation corporation, to accept collateral consisting of a paramount lien on any property containing proportionate value to the loan applied for in all cases where the proceeds of the loan will be used to rehabilitate property destroyed through the earthquake, and it will not be necessary that the lien be on the damaged property itself as was heretofore the case. Information concerning this amendment and the possibilities for obtaining loans for the repair of property damaged in the earthquake should be obtained from either the main office of the Unified Rehabilitation corporation, 326 Chamber of Commerce Building, Los Angeles, or from offices at 232 Santora Building, Santa Ana. Democrat Succeeds Republican P. M. Mrs. Bertha Hilbert, recently named acting postmaster at La Habra to succeed Republican George Eaby who was instructed to vacate his office because of "irregularities", was scheduled to take office on June 15. Eaby's term was not up for another year. He claims the "irregularities" were departmental "red tape." LEGAL NOTICE NO. A-3411 NOTICE TO CREDITORS ESTATE OF Marie L. Dwyer, also known as Mary L.

Three outstanding surveys were undertaken during the year, two of which, were recently completed. These two covered the almond and the grapefruit industry. The third, covering the citrus industry, is still under way. In every instance the organization work was instituted by the industry itself, the state being called in to give the growers, processors and distributors the benefit of its organization experience. Development of the procedure used by the state in this organization work followed a conference between federal authorities and Dr. Theodore Macklin, chief of the division of markets in January, 1932. The conference was to determine the manner in which the recently enacted Federal Cooperative Marketing Act would apply to California's agricultural situation. It led to an agreement between the state, the Federal Farm Board and other governmental agencies calling for a program of unified organization action in this state. LEGAL NOTICE NO.
