50 Years Ago Jan. 25, 1888 The contract for the construction of Mr. Theodore Reiser's operahouse on the corner of Center and Olive streets is let to Messrs. Charles Schindler and H. P. Larsen, the former gentlemen constructing the brick foundation and the latter gentleman the woodwork. Work is to be commenced on the building immediately. This structure will be a decided improvement to our town. The upperstory will be fitted up in the most approved style, containing latest appurtenances which are necessary in a building of that pattern. Large and convenient apartments for stores, etc., will comprise the lower story, which we understand are already engaged for occupancy. Cement walks are to be laid on Center street from in front of the building to the center of town, thus affording city conveniences. Mr. Reiser is alert to our interests and the construction of this block will be warmly appreciated by our people. We hear that other buildings are to be erected on Center street in the same vicinity. The late purchase of Mr. Alexander Henry on the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets is to be graced with a two-story brick building. It will cover the entire lot which is 90x125 feet. It will thus be seen that the building boom in Anaheim is pretty well established. Times have changed and we are now in the line of the meeting of all the young ladies of Anaheim is called for next Wednesday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. A. L. Lewis, at which time the Leap Year ball preliminaries will be discussed. A pink tea will be given under the auspices of the Cheerful Workers at Kroeger's hall on the 27th inst.

Funeral services occurred on Tuesday and were conducted by the Masonic lodge. Mr. R. H. Gilman of the Semi-Tropic Fruit company received returns the other day on a large lot of lemons which he recently shipped to San Francisco. They were sold at $6 per box—a rate which if maintained would make the owner of a 10 acre lemon grove vastly rich in a few years.

This leaves Mr. Hartung with but ten acres in Anaheim, but he has lately acquire some very valuable property in Los Angeles which he believe will greatly increase in value.

JUNE 23, 1913 That a river protection district comprising Anaheim, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Buena Park and Placentia districts, will be formed in the near future and the Santa Ana river curbed from its meanerdings in the section north of the Olive bridge now seems a matter of little doubt. The matter of forming a protection district has been slumbering for many years but was recently awakened by the announcement by the Orange county board of supervisors that the contemplated $35,000 concrete Olive bridge would not be touched until steps were taken to insure that the Santa Ana river would have the same channel a year from today as it has at present. Heretofore, it has wandered about from one bed to another and it has been a difficult matter to build a bridge that will remain where the river is. The supervisors do not wish to spend $35,000 of the people’s recently voted bond money for a bridge that is likely to be left high and dry in a few months when the river afflicted like all California streams with the wanderlust should make a new channel for itself. A party of Anaheim business men were driven to the seat of action on Monday in company of Supervisor Schumacher and went over the grounds at the Olive bridge and for some distance north of the structure. The matter will be taken up at the next meeting of the local board of trade and ways and means to curb the river gone into fully. The gentlemen composing the party were Chas, Eygabroad, H. A. Dickel, V. U. Simpson, J. W. Duckworth, H. M. Adams, J. S. Hiland, A. W. Wood, C. E. Chamberlain, Erwin Bayha, J. S. Howard, L. S. Abbott and several others.

This subject will be brought before the tax committee, and recommendations made by the committee will be presented to the council for general action and discussion at the luncheon session. The tax committee will also consider plans for vigorous and coordinated opposition to the sales tax repeal-single tax initiative, in the event that it is qualified for the ballot.

Stabilization of employment in California, effecting substantial savings in the cost of unemployment compensation and relief, will be on the major subjects before the industrial committee. Increased Citrus Production Seen Plenty of citrus fruit and citrus juice are in store for consumers during the next few years. The large number of young trees just coming into bearing assure an abundant supply of oranges, lemons, and grapefruit. In its annual outlook report, which was reviewed at the recent farm advisor conference, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics points out, for example, that a big Citrus Manual Is Offered Growers A concisely written handbook, containing all fundamental information about the citrus industry and the most up-to-date methods of citriculture, has been published by Mutual Orange Distributors. The 100-page volume is being distributed to all growers of the cooperative, and upon request, to all others interested in citrus practices. Entitled "A Manual for Citrus Growers", the book is not designed as a text, but as ready reference with practical answers to the everyday common problems encountered by citrus growers. The idea stressed throughout is "Better fruit, greater production, less cost to produce". The manual covers, in 12 chapters, all of the primary practices of citriculture. An introduction tells of the Mutual Orange Distributors; and a complete glossary of scientific terms, bibliography, and cross-index, are included. Editors of the manual are Charles W. Horn, advertising manager; A. L. Chandler, manager, fertilizer department; and H. L. Thomason, growers' service department. Plenty of citrus fruit and citrus juice are in store for consumers during the next few years. The large number of young trees just coming into bearing assure an abundant supply of oranges, lemons, and grapefruit. In its annual outlook report, which was reviewed at the recent farm advisor conference, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics points out, for example, that a big portion of the orange-tree population is still very young. Of the 34,600,000 orange trees of bearing age (5 years old and over) estimated in the groves of California, Florida, Texas, and Arizona in 1937, 45 percent had not reached full production and 26 percent were in the relatively young group of 5 to 10 years of age. With almost one-half of the bearing trees to come into full bearing, average production during the next five years is expected to be larger than that of the past five years. Only about one-third of the grapefruit-bearing trees had reached the age of full production in 1937. And only about two-thirds of the bearing acreage of lemons in California had reached full producing capacity. The bureau points out that the production of citrus fruits has shown a big increase in recent years. From 1919 to 1936 orange production increased about 80 percent; the production of apples, on the other hand, declined about 12 percent during this period. Percival: "Daddy, do they raise political plums from seeds?" Daddy (who never had one): "No, young man. Political plums are more often the result of a bit of clever grafting."
