50 Years Ago
JANUARY 16, 1886
As a natural sequence of the revelation made by the fine display of Anaheim products at the fair, and promised session of the Pomological society, at Anaheim, the question of erecting a horticultural pavilion is being agitated. If the enthusiasm of the people does not evaporate when they are called upon to subscribe "in black and white," there would appear to be little difficulty in getting a sufficient number of shares taken in a joint stock company to build a pavilion that would be a credit to the enterprise of the community. If some active and public spirited man would take the matter in hand, the project could, we think, be cohesively managed with little effort.
Prof. Milliken's dancing academy opened at Kroeger's hall on Thursday evening under most favorable circumstances, there being an attendance of about sixty ladies and gentlemen. It being the opening night, the time was chiefly occupied in instructing the novices in the art and also in giving suggestions pertaining to ballroom etiquette, under the Professor's able teaching. At eleven o'clock, the time for closing, the participants were given the treat of an hour's dance ad libitum, after which the company dispersed misfortunes of their Florida brethren.
Fortune has smiled with a very big smile upon Gens A. Gensen, a young man who has been living in Anaheim for a number of years. He was wicked enough last month to buy a one-half and a one-fifth ticket in the Louisiana lottery, and lucky enough to draw $500 on the half ticket and $5,000 on the one-fifth ticket. The money was paid to him one day this week, less one per cent charges for collection. Mr. Gensen is a sensible young man and will doubtless make good use of his easily acquired wealth.

The session's will be held on Thursday evenings at the same place until further notice.
F. H. Keith, real estate agent, consumed an important sale on Thursday. He sold the tract of land owned by D. W. C. Cowan to James Taylor Sr., together with the two-story brick dwelling and other improvements, for $100 per here. Mr. Taylor has got a bargain, as the land is of first-class quality. He contemplates making extensive improvements on the property;
Mr. Cowan's future movements are uncertain, but we hope to be able to record that he will settle again in this vicinity.
The effect upon the orange markets in the east of the destruction of the Florida crop by frost is a very live question for discussion by the orange growers of this county. It is doubtless true that fully one-third of the crop was destroyed, and this will stiffen the market for the present year. It is known, also, that the fruit for the next year will be small and of inferior quality, owing to the injury to the trees and it is likely that the prices for oranges next year will rule high. All of which somewhat assuages the grief which the people here feel for the

The Man Who Knows
Whether the Remedy You are taking for Headaches, Neuralgia or Rheumatism Pains is SAFE is Your Doctor. Ask Him
Don't Entrust Your Own or Your Family's Well-Being to Unknown Preparations
BEFORE you take any preparation you don't know all about, for the relief of headaches; or the pains of rheumatism, neuritis or neuralgia, ask your doctor what he thinks about it—in comparison with Genuine Bayer Aspirin.
We say this because, before the discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most so-called "pain" remedies were advised against by physicians as being bad for the stomach; or, often, for the heart. And the discovery of Bayer Aspirin largely changed medical practice.
Countless thousands of people who have taken Bayer Aspirin year in and out without ill effect, have proved that the medical findings about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer Aspirin is rated among the fastest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches and all common pains...and safe for the average person to take regularly.
You can get real Bayer Aspirin at any drug store—simply by never asking for it by the name "aspirin" alone, but always saying BAYER ASPIRIN when you buy.

end to the dfyest year but one that had been recorded in thirty years, rain which began falling on Monday morning gave proof that another bounteous year was at hand for Southern California. Never was rain more urgently needed for up to that hour the record showed the season to be the dryest but one in thirty years. The winter of 1886-7 marked less rainfall than during the present year. Only .33 of an inch fell in that season to date, but the total for the season was 8.95. Preceding the present storm only 1.01 inches of rain fell this season. .45 of an inch falling in December and .56 in September.
The seasonal outlook is propitious and with the usual winter and spring rains to follow record-breaking crops will be harvested.
As a matter of fact no rain is necessary in Southern California until Thanksgiving, and years in which no rain has fallen until January have turned out to be the best ever experienced by our farmers. The precipitation for the storm on Monday and Monday night measured .54 inches.
Throwing streams of water all night upon the burned warehouse of Ben Dauser, at the corner of Orange and Santa Ana streets, the fire department on Saturday night fought the most stubborn and threatening fire in recent years in this city. The north warehouse 40 x 120 feet was entirely destroyed together with its contents of hay, grain and beet seed. Separated by a few feet is the south warehouse 40 x 102 feet, containing machinery and stored with grain and hay. Between the two warehouses are two tanks, one containing oil and the firemen Frank Walter, treasurer; Alfred Heying, recording secretary; L. W. Bushard, financial secretary; Leo Sheridan, warden; C.

JANUARY 12, 1911 Making the most protracted that has existed since the r of 1886-7, and putting an Orange and Santa Ana streets, the fire department on Saturday night fought the most stubborn and threatening fire in recent years in this city. The north warehouse 40 x 120 feet was entirely destroy-ed together with its contents of hay, grain and beet seed. Separated by a few feet is the south warehouse 40 x 102 feet, containing machinery and stored with grain and hay. Between the two warehouses are two tanks, one containing oil and the firemen fought to prevent the flames from igniting the inflammable liquid. By herculean effort the fire was prevented from reaching the oil tank and a more serious distaste averted. Two cars belonging to the Santa Fe bridge building outfit and their contents were destroyed.
Upward of a thousand persons gathered at the fire. Mr. Dauer estimates his loss at about $5000 which is partly covered by insurance. The total loss by the fire is probably $15,000 which is partially covered b y insurance.

When those poor, misguided people went up to blaze a trail through the frozen wilds of Alaska, all they got was a stoney stare. They arrived on time by boat and train. The 40 acre tracts were there but no markets. They had threshing machines but nothing to put into them. They had meat slicers but no electric juice to make them go around. They had no houses to live in but plenty of wet lumber. They had horses but no wagons. Like prohibition it was a noble experiment with plenty of weeps and moans.

The mayor of a big Eastern city the other day stepped up to the mike and spied about taking the choke out of a California artichoke. He said it was a racket and tried to convince his snow-bound hearers that the products from this Sunkist valley were a bunch of thawed out trumpets. You know an artichoke does look like a trombone.
