IN THE DAYS OF L Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK MAY 31, 1884 The Directors of the A. U. W. company at their meeting on last Saturday rejected the bids for cleaning the ditches, deeming them too high, and decided to put a large force of men at work under the supervision of Engineer Kellogg, and to have the ditches ready for the delivery of water by July 1st. The resignation of W. M. Bailey as superintendent was accepted. The following was adopted: Resolved, That the company assume the charge of and keep in repair when necessary, all ditches required to convey water to the lands covered by the stock of the company; provided however, that the owners of the land through which the ditches run, or the owners of ditches which it is necessary to use, shall consent to the company's employes going upon said land and cleaning and using said ditches. The incubators at the ostrich farm are fully charged with eggs, and it is possible that in six or eight weeks the long looked for ostrich chicks will be a strutting fact. The hens are laying with their accustomed energy, and six of them having reached the age when they ought to produce fertile eggs, tangible results are expected. Two of the hens will be allowed to set and it will be interesting to note this trial between natural artificial methods. One of the setting hens now has a nest of fine eggs which she warms during the day and her male mate relieves her during the night. Some of the birds will be plucked during the next few weeks. The quality of the feathers has been somewhat impaired by the heavy winter rains. Already notes of summer exodus to the mountains or beach are heard. It is likely that Anaheim Landing will receive more than its usual share of campers. Bathing and other facilities afforded are so favorable that all old habitues annually return bringing with them new seekers for a quiet and pleasant enjoy- teresting to note this trial between natural artificial methods.

Moores, school census marshal for Anaheim school district has furnished us with the following extracts from his list: Number of boys between 5 and 17 ... 119 Number of girls between 5 and 17 ... 149 Number of children under 5 years ... 133 Total ... 401 Two hundred and thirteen children attended school during the year and 99 did not attend school. There were thirty-two births during the year—thirteen boys and nineteen girls. Unfavorable reports of the condition of hay and grain crops in San Diego county are received. Hay has been injured by rain and mildew, and grain considerably affected by rust. In some localities large areas of hay and grain now ready for the header and reaper on account of the softness of soil cannot be harvested. The contract for street sprinkling has been given to L. F. Lewis. A hydrant adapted to the purpose of filling the sprinklers has been connected with the town water main on Center street. Mr. Lewis has the apparatus completed and after Monday we may expect less dust in our streets. All the wagon road crossings of New River are yet dangerous. Communication with Los Angeles by the southern portion of the county can be had with safety only by railroad. This is interesting to farmers and may be profitable to Los Angeles business men. Mr. Landell census marshal of Centralia school district reports 26 children in the district between the ages of 5 and 17 and 13 children under the age of five. This is an increase over last year. There were three births in the district last year—all girls. The hordes of caterpillars having in the natural orders of things performed their functions in the devastation of vegetation, are now in a budding state which will soon blossom into a bountiful harvest of beautiful butterflies.

Shipments from the Anaheim depot for the week ending May 28, 1884, were as follows: 21 cars wool, 758 bales hay, 3 cars wine, 54 cases; 1 car brandy, 100 cases; 95 cases eggs; miscellaneous, 34,750 lbs. At the democratic primary held Saturday last but little interest was manifested in the selection of delegates to the county convention. Twenty-three votes were polled, electing without opposition Alex Bailey, T. L. Gannon, J. S. Gardiner, W. M. McFadden, Frank Porter, W. M. Bailey. A casual glance at the brilliant company present at Kroeger's hall on Wednesday evening last week convince the veriest skeptic that Anaheimers boast of the beauty, grace and good style of her young ladies and the elegance of her young men is well founded. Yesterday was Memorial day, a legal holiday in this state, and was generally observed by the customary decoration of soldiers graves under the auspices of the Grand Army of the Republic. The republican national convention convenes at Chicago on Monday. Before the next issue of the Gazette, the name of the twenty-second president of the United States will be known. The work of preparing a kiln of brick is now in progress on Mr. Schindler's land near the railroad depot. There is little doubt that the brick will be of first class quality. A contract for carrying the mail to and from the Anaheim postoffice and the railroad station has been awarded to L. F. Lewis. OF LONG AGO and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain the Only Records of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JUNE 3, 1909 Memorial day services on Monday were participated in by members of Malvern Hill post, when the time honored custom of decorating graves of the departed with beautiful flowers was observed. In the ceremony they were joined by school children in large numbers and as escort of honor they had Company E of the National Guard. Graves of blue and gray alike were decorated and a profusion of flowers covered their last resting places. A large concourse gathered under the shady trees in the cemetery at 10 o'clock and listened for two hours to a patriotic program. At 9:30 o'clock on Tuesday Agent Pickering telephoned the Gazette the following wireless message from Alex Henry, 950 miles at sea: Via Woodshale, Mass., from steamer President Grant, via Siasconsett, Mass., June 1st: To Henry Kuchel, Anaheim, Calif.: 950 miles at sea. All well on board. Alexander Henry. Mr. and Mrs. Henry sailed from New York on Wednesday last at 3 o'clock for England. All well on board! May fortune attend the good ship and the good people aboard. W. W. Meyers has sold his ranch at Magnolia for $6,000 and in a few days leaves for a trip to Ohio, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and other places east. Mr. Meyers has lived in this section since 1891 and contemplates returning after his trip to locate again and become a permanent resident. Dr. and Mrs. Freeman, Dr. Beebe and Rev. Markle attended a meeting of the Orange County Medical association at Santa Ana on Tuesday evening. The occasion was the twentieth anniversary of the organization of the association and a banquet was served. A symposium was participated in by leading physicians, ministers. "Electric Range Jubilee" To Run Well Into June Newspaper Advertising Used to Put Over One of Biggest Merchandising Plans Inaugurated as one of the most complete cooperative merchandising enterprises ever undertaken by the electrical dealers of Southern California, the present "electric range jubilee" now under way in full swing, offers prospective electric range users the opportunity to participate advantageously in an industry-wide event, according to R. E. Bacon, division manager of the Southern California Edison company, Ltd. The campaign, which promises to write a new chapter in electric range history in Southern California, was opened April 30 and will continue well into June. Newspaper advertising of the Southern California Edison company Ltd., in cooperation with the electric range dealers throughout the Edison territory, is stressing the advantages of electric cookery and the advantages of the present price offering on 1934 model, full automatic electric ranges. "The Edison company always has been a strong believer in regular use of newspaper advertising space to point out the advantages of full electrical service for the home," Mr. Bacon said, "and in the present cooperative campaign we are leaning on the newspaper to a greater extent than ever before to insure the success of the plan. "We feel that in this new program the electrical dealers have a great deal to offer the public, a new and fully automatic electric range at a price that is tremendously attractive. The Edison company itself, of course, is not selling this merchandise directly but is W. W.

Nemetz' rabbit made his escape the first night of its incarceration. Mr. Nemetz was fattening the varmint for his Sunday dinner, which coming to the bunny's ears determined him to make his getaway at all hazards. Come what may. At night, while its captor dreamed of the delights of whatever you call harzen?peffer, it lifted the lid of the box in which it was confined and hiked for its ancestral home in the hills. The report that Nemetz had the rabbit for breakfast is denied. An automobilist who has traveled extensively in his car this season reports more rattlesnakes to be seen than ever before. On a single day he counted a dozen—all of them on the roadside, having been run over and killed by machines. Daintily appointed and charming in every way was the card party given by Mrs. Melrose at her home on Thursday afternoon. About thirty ladies were present and "500" was the game. High scores were made by Miss Sophie Rimpau and Mrs. Harry Dyer. The first prize, a silver tomato server, was awarded to Miss Rimpau and the second, a linen tea cloth to Mrs. Dyer. Refreshments of strawberry ice cream, strawberries and cake were served by the hostess after the award of the prizes. A game of baseball will be played between Anaheim and Olinda Oil Wells at the new grounds south of the power house in this city on Sunday afternoon. Huntington and Schneider will be in the points for the locals. Crips and Brown will be the battery for the visitors. Game called at 2:30. On Sunday, July 13, the locals go to Corona to cross bats with the team at that place. E. E. Kuch was in town one day last week attending a meeting of the litigation committees of the two water companies. Mr. Kuch said on leaving for the train there was nothing doing in politics. Mike Reagan was up from Los Alamitos on Sunday. Mike is prospering at the sugar factory town, having ninety acres of fine hay, besides other valuable holdings. Always glad to see you Michael. Jacob Stern and family leave June 29th for a five months tour of Europe. They will spend sometime with Mr. Stern's parents who reside in Germany and whom they have not seen in several years. Monday was the hottest May day in the memory of the oldest inhabitant of the area." Mr. Bacon said, "and in the present cooperative campaign we are leaning on the newspaper to a greater extent then ever before to insure the success of the plan." "We feel that in this new program the electrical dealers have a great deal to offer the public, a new and fully automatic electric range at a price that is tremendously attractive. The Edison company itself, of course, is not selling this merchandise directly but is putting the full strength of its commercial division behind the plan to cooperate with the electrical range dealers." "The company, as a part of this cooperative campaign and like the electrical dealers in its territory, has arranged an attractive display of the new ranges in its office here. The public is invited to visit the Edison office at any time to see and learn all about the new ranges, and I am sure that all of the electrical dealers extend the same invitation, regardless of whether their visitors are contemplating the immediate purchase of an electric range. "Southern California householders have the distinction of being among the leaders of the nation in the use of electric energy for domestic service, for cooking, refrigeration, water heating as well as for lighting and the operation of the small convenient appliances such as the toaster, waffle iron and mixer. The present 'electric range jubilee' campaign is designed wholly to make electrical cooking equipment easily available to the households of Southern California. The manufacturers of electric cooking equipment have cooperated by making available the full automatic electric ranges at a standard, unprecedented low price. "A noteworthy feature of this 'electric range jubilee' program is that the unusual low price includes the complete installation of the range in most homes. This feature, combined with the fact that the electrical dealers are now offering particularly advantageous payment plans, makes the present most timely for the purchase of an electric range." Egg Marketing In Southland Studied With the view of preparing a brief on the status of egg marketing conditions in Southern California, the Giannini foundation of the University of California has been making a study, the results of which will be available for distribution in the near future. This study was initiated at the request Mike Reagan was up from Los Alamitos on Sunday. Mike is prospering at the sugar factory town, having ninety acres of fine hay, besides other valuable holdings. Always glad to see you Michael. Jacob Stern and family leave June 29th for a five months tour of Europe. They will spend sometime with Mr. Stern's parents who reside in Germany and whom they have not seen in several years. Monday was the hottest May day in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, the thermometer standing at 96 in the shade. A hot wind blew from the northwest, but after sundown it was cool and pleasant. Rev. Juny will preach the baccalaureate sermon to the senior high school class at the Presbyterian church on Sunday evening at 8 o'clock. Music will be furnished by the Episcopal church choir. Richard Melrose and J. O. Royer returned on Saturday evening from a trip to Costa Rica. If you don't think they had a way-up trip, read the diary of the trip published in another column. Dr. John Boege was in Los Angeles Tuesday evening attending the monthly meeting of the Los Angeles County Dental association. J. P. Hatzfeld and wife leave shortly for a visit to the former's relatives in Kentucky. On their return to California Mr. Hatzfeld will devote his attention to the growing of citrus fruits, having purchased a fine ranch at Placentia. John Tuffree and wife, J. N. Nenno, wife and daughter, Faustina, went to Redlands Saturday in Mr. Tuffree's auto visiting relatives in that city. They returned to their homes in Placentia on Tuesday. C. W. Hedges, George Tedrick, J. Weiner and Harry B. Cochran go to Santa Ana on Saturday to take the examination for carriers of rural free delivery. Successful applicants are eligible to any vacancy in the county, and their credentials are good for one year. A. Pierotti and family are expected to arrive home on Sunday. They left New York, westward bound on Tuesday. Egg Marketing In Southland Studied With the view of preparing a brief on the status of egg marketing conditions in Southern California, the Giannini foundation of the University of California has been making a study, the results of which will be available for distribution in the near future. This study was initiated at the request of the regional poultry department, to be used in working out a satisfactory marketing agreement for this area, according to W. M. Cory, assistant farm advisor. To obtain a cross section of the grades and quality of eggs being offered the public, 227 dozens of eggs were purchased from stores in three counties of Southern California. These were separately candled and graded by a federal candler, a state capdler and a commercial candler and the results recorded.

(mentioning this ad) to The Atlantic Monthly, 8 Arlington St., Boston Sugar Beet Plans Are Taking Form Expect Basis for Individual Allotments Soon; Price of $6.50 a Ton Sought Plans for an adjustment program for sugar beets and sugar cane and for administration of the Costigan-Jones act signed by the president, are taking definite form, according to an official statement received by the farm advicer’s office. Special attention is focused on the pending program for domestic sugar beets, which is closely patterned after the programs in effect on other basic agricultural commodities, such as wheat, cotton, and tobacco. The act provides that the secretary shall within 30 days proclaim that rental or benefit payments with respect to those commodities will be made and the processing tax shall be in effect in 30 days. This proclamation has already been issued. It is estimated that proceeds from the processing and compensating taxes, which cannot exceed one-half a cent per pound, 96 degrees raw sugar basis, would amount to 63 million dollars a year, of which approximately 20 million dollars would be distributed as benefit payments among the growers of sugar beets and sugar cane in continental United States who participate in the program. Out of the remaining 43 million dollars, the taxes arising out of the processing of sugar cane produced in the insular areas would be available for use, for the benefit of agriculture generally or for reduction in cane acreage or sugar production in those areas, at the discretion of the secretary of agriculture, with the approval of the president. Sugar beets, in a number of areas, have already been planted, while in other areas planting operations are...
