50 Years Ago Sept. 18, 1887 A great many of the roads in Anaheim and environs are in as good condition as any in the county, although candor compels us to remarks that they may be that and not be anything to boast of. Some of the county roads are almost impassable. There is one road which the overseer would do well to repair. It is the road from Hartung's corner to Leonard Parker's place. We have several times called attention to the sad state of this thoroughfare and as it is traveled very extensively it is to be hoped that the road cruiser will evoke the blessings of travelers by at once giving it his attention. Several gangs of sheep-shearers came in town last Sunday and began at once to make things lively. As usual they celebrated their holiday, the 16th of September, which was the 77th anniversary of Mexican independence. Mr. Theo. Hartung is paying $11 per ton for Malvoisie grapes delivered at the Anaheim depot where they will be shipped to Kohler & Frohling of Los Angeles. The Australian rabbit is a grievous pest. It eats up the young and tender foliage, and causes havoc among the vegetation in general, and yet the rabbit has never been known to attempt to girdle the tree of liberty. The United States could well afford to trade its anarchists for Australian early in October when many high officials will probably be present. Anaheim's schools are something of which we may well be proud and we commend the boards of trustees in their untiring efforts to give our boys and girls the best education possible. Our school buildings are now in the best condition in history. A most efficient corps of teachers has been secured and a very successful school year is looked forward to. Frederick M. Sayer and Miss Anna Hand were married at 8 o'clock last night at the Presbyterian church. Rev. Lewis G. Morris of St. John's Episcopal church is Los Angeles, performed the ceremony and was assisted by Rev. F. W. Mitchell. The matron of honor was Mrs. Geo. M. Ross and the maid of honor Miss Kathryn Hand, sister of the bride. Bridesmaids were Miss Elizabeth Donovan, Miss Sarah Fay McKinley and Miss Nina McClellan. Ushers were Raymond Elliott, Charles E. Robinson, Robert Hubbard and Arthur Von Heydekampf. The girls choral club composed of Misses Nellie Bush, Madeline Whitaker, Grace Adams, Helena Goodale, Lucile Smith, Emily Spaethe, Francis Day, Ethel Smith, Beatrice Day and Jean Adams sang "The Bridal Chorus" from the "Rosemaiden." Miss Juanita Powers sang "Loves Coronation" accompanied by Mrs. Charlotte Adams Corneille on piano and Miss Helena Goodale on the violin. A wedding reception was held at Newport, Catalina Island and other beach resorts. Miss Marie Finney and Miss Mattie Lou Robertson this week took up their studies as seniors at the Los Angeles State Normal School. Darroll Webb has accepted a position behind the soda fountain at Mullinix drug store. Theo. Ford was a business visitor in town the first of the week from his extensive nurseries south of town. Adult School to Start on Monday First hand information concerning the Sino-Japanese war gathered by Dr. Claude A. Buss A. P. correspondent in Nankirk during the summer, will be related to students of international relations classes at University college, adult evening division of the University of Southern California which opens Monday. Dr. Buss served in the United States foreign service in Chile before entering the teaching profession as a member of the Trinity faculty in 1934, and was on world tour when the war outbreak occurred. His intimate knowledge of the Far East resulted in his appointment as prescort correspondent, according to Dee Ernest W. Tiegs, head of the University college. The Australian rabbit is a grievous pest. It eats up the young and tender foliage, and causes havoc among the vegetation in general, and yet the rabbit has never been known to attempt to girdle the tree of liberty. The United States could well afford to trade its anarchists for Australian rabbits. The myriads of quail abounding in the cactus and sage brush everywhere have almost destroyed the crop of grapes on several of the vineyards east of Anaheim. Grape growers have asked many times to have the open season for quail changed from October 1st to September 1st, and are obliged to kill quail to save their crops even if by so doing they are breaking the law of the closed season. Quail are found in all vineyards in town also but not in numbers to do much damage. It is only on the outskirts o f town that they are in sufficient numbers to destroy the crop entirely. H. C. Gade is now selling first class baled barley hay raised on the Kraemer ranch for ¾ cent per pound per single bale, or $10 per ten delivered. A large attendance is expected at the Landing tomorrow. There will be a number of attractive sports and games and two bands to furnish music for those inclined to dance. 25 Years Ago Sept. 19, 1912 Workmen are engaged in putting the finishing touches upon the new brick structure at the corner of Helena street and Broadway which is to be occupied by St. Joseph's Academy as a select board and day school. Accommodations are provided for 35 boarding students. Rev. Father Dubble informs us that when the patronage justifies other large buildings will be erected for the accommodation of a larger number of students. The school is an institution of the Dominican Sisters and will be in personal charge of Sister Superior Henrietta, who will be assisted by a corps of other sisters, all from the mother house at Harper. The girls choral club composed of Misses Nellie Bush, Madeline Whitaker, Grace Adams, Helena Goodale, Lucile Smith, Emily Spaethe, Francis Day, Ethel Smith, Beatrice Day and Jean Adams sang "The Bridal Chorus" from the "Rosemaiden." Miss Juanita Powers sang "Loves Coronation" accompanied by Mrs. Charlotte Adams Cornelle on piano and Miss Helena Goodale on the violin. A wedding reception was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hand after the ceremony. The bride and groom will make their home in Granite City, Illinois. Miss Lela Steadman was hostess Saturday evening to several young ladies who enjoyed a pleasant evening at her home. A four course dinner was served in dainty style and was much enjoyed. Those present were Mrs. Stanley Lewis, Mrs. Roger Jackson, Miss Helen Richardson, Miss Lillie Zens and Miss Violet Nebelung. The Misses Ethel Cole, Grace Adams, Edith Hedstrom, Mrs. Lilian Walters and Adolph Schneider this week took up studies in the normal school at Los Angeles: The total enrollment at high school was given on Tuesday evening as 178. This number is divided among the four classes as follows: seniors, 28; juniors, 31; sophomores, 56; freshmen, 63. The total enrollment for last year was 161, making a gain so far of 17 students. The high school buildings are in fine shape and everything was in readiness for the opening of school. The total grammar school enrollment was given as 601., Last year to date it was 542. A slumber party was enjoyed by ten Anaheim young ladies on Thursday evening last. Misses Charlotte and Esther Fernkopf were hostesses for the occasion. A Dutch supper composed of such edibles as sauer kraut, weiners, pretzels, and dill pickles graced the board. Ghost stories were told until a late hour. These must have had a disastrous effect upon the peace of mind of the guests for it is whispered that most of the party enjoyed only one hour of sleep. Those present were the Misses Mary Daniel, Blanche Mickle, Olga Wipperman, Lydia Felber, Nellie Look, Alma Yoern, Elizabeth Yoern, Charlotte Fernkeeper. Meeting at convenient late afternoon and early evening hour during the 12-week term, 2 courses in all departments of the college curriculum are scheduled to start next week in the downtown quarters of the school in the Transportation building, 7th-air Los Angeles streets, Dean Tiee announced. Dividend Increased by Bank of America The board of directors of the Bank of America National Trust and Savings association at a meeting this week in Los Angeles raised the regular annual dividend rate from $2 to $2.40 a share by declaring a semi-annual dividend of $1.20 a share, one-half which is payable on September 30, and one-half on December 30 to stockholders of record September 15, and December 15, respectively. In commenting on the board action A. P. Giannini, chairman, the board said, "Because of our continuing satisfactory experience in normal operating result because of the generally promising outlook for California business, we feel that we should pay on to our stockholders a larger portion of Bank of America profits."

Range Program Develops Water, Adds To Life of Grass in State By DeWitt C. Wing From talks with ranchmen in California a few weeks ago, I gathered that the range vegetation on which sheep and cattle feed contributes a greater percentage than all other crops combined to range cover. Reservoirs are necessary where piping is done. We like 2-inch piping. Some reservoirs in use hold 50,000 to 100,000 gallons. One big, well-developed spring is better than many small ones."

Wing From talks with ranchmen in California a few weeks ago, I gathered that the range vegetation on which sheep and cattle feed contributes a greater percentage than all other crops combined to California's annual income. "Water", said one of these men, "is the life of grasses. Rainfall is important in relation to the time at which it occurs. Rain must come in October and November to do the most good. Normally, January and February are wet. By the end of February, annual grasses and other plants begin growing all over the state: a little later the landscape is radiant with wild blossoms of many colors. Range feed and feed on unirrigated valley land begin rapidly to dry up about the end of April. Our rainfall varies from 100 inches a year in Mendocino county (about 100 miles north of San Francisco) to 1 inch in the Imperial Valley at the southeast corner of the state." At Hollister I talked with Farm Advisor Roy McCallum and H. J. Breen, range examiner. We spent considerable time on a big ranch. "Water development", said Breen, "is the most important factor in range conservation and use. I would list boundary fences second. In this region the AAA range conservation program has met with a good reception. Saddle horse raising in this part of the state goes well with cattle raising." A cattle ranchman said that "on some of the best ranges I know, water transmission through pipes tends definitely to conserve the range cover. Reservoirs are necessary where piping is done. We like 2-inch piping. Some reservoirs in use hold 50,000 to 100,000 gallons. One big, well-developed spring is better than many small ones." "California", said another ranchman, "is unlike any other state. Its size, altitudes, climates, rivers, history and position on the national map make it unique as a livestock and farming state. Its agriculture is highly specialized and highly diversified. We have about 18 percent of the national forest area of the western states, and 50 percent of all the people in these states. Our per capita consumption of beef, veal and lamb substantially exceeds the national For your Outing Save at PIONEER YOU WANT THE TRUTH ??? READ (ed from last week.)

Monday morning at eight-thirty, after I got my husband off and the children to school I went down to the basement. You know what a job it was. The washing weighed about 21 pounds, just morning it took me nearly three hours to get the clothes and wrung out. I spent another thirty minutes hanging them line in the back yard.

State Chamber of Commerce Acts To Defeat Unicameral Proposition Initiative proposals to establish a unicameral, or single house, legislature, and to reduce the gasoline tax from three to two cents per gallon are opposed by the board of directors of the California State chamber of commerce, as the result of discussion of these measures at a meeting of the directors held in Sacramento last Friday. C. C. Teague, of Santa Paula, past president of the state chamber, was appointed chairman of a committee which will work toward defeat of the proposed initiative which would create a one-house legislature in California. Teague stated that the proposal would deprive agricultural areas of their proper representation, and would throw the balance of power in the legislature to the centers of large population. Call for a meeting, to be attended by representatives of all state-wide organizations, has been issued by Teague. The meeting will be held in Los Angeles on September 17 to formulate plans for defeat of the unicameral initiative. In opposing the proposed reduction of the gas tax to two cents, the state chamber empha-sized the necessity of continuing the present road construction program without being handicapped by insufficient funds. State Relief Director Harold Pomeroy appeared before the board and refuted recent reports, widely circulated, relative to the deplorable conditions affecting migratory labor in certain sections of the state. Pomeroy stated that conditions are no worse than they were a year ago, that there was no starvation then, and there is none now. The board approved a recommendation, submitted by the highway committee, that timber screens be maintained along scenic highways of the state.
