Famous Cypress Substitute Found Hope for the development of a cypress tree to take the place of the famed Monterey cypress, which appears doomed in California, is expressed in a statement by Professor Woodbridge Metcalf, extension forester of the University of California. According to Prof. Metcalf, Dr. Carl Wolf of the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden in Orange county, is growing certain varieties of interior cypress which appear to be resistant to the Coryneum canker, which is destroying the Monterey variety. More than 2,000 trees are growing in the hilly terrain of the botanic garden, and several of them have made rapid and satisfactory growth without any evidence of the disease to date. Both the coastal and the interior varieties are being grown by Dr. Wolf, but the coastal types all show infestation by the canker. Others are making excellent progress. The best seem to be Piute cypress, from the mountains of Kern county, Forbes cypress, from the foothills of Orange county, and Sargent cypress, from the interior coastal ranges. All of these varieties have been inoculated with the disease under laboratory conditions, but the resistance of several species to infection seems very promising. For many years the Monterey cypress was widely used as an ornamental tree, its rapidity of growth, general hardiness and beauty making it a favorite wherever it could be grown. However, By WARREN BAYLEY GRAND CANYON, ARIZONA—Probably in no other place in the world could you travel 269 miles (exact highway distance) and see two such outstanding sights as Boulder dam and this Grand Canyon of the Colorado. Each is as different as day from night. One, a supreme achievement by man, The other, a supreme achievement by nature. Located 57 miles north of Highway 66, it is necessary to leave the main road at Williams, Ariz., to reach it at its main point of interest on the south rim. Here at Grand Canyon village are accommodations for every type of traveler. These include cabins, camp grounds, hotels, stores and etc. Considering its isolated location, the rates are not excessive. In as much as the "village" is the focal point on the south rim, all trips are started from this point. As these are various and the points of interest many, I suggest you write the national park service for their booklet which explains them in detail. As to the park and the canyon, here are a few facts as given to me by a park attendant: The Grand Canyon national park was established by act of The rock layers in the canyon walls are remnants of ancient mountains, sea bottoms, river beds and deserts, millions of years old. Fossils in the rocks of the canyon walls show stages in the development of ancient life from primitive one-celled plants to la lizard-like animals. The Colorado river is the second longest river in the U.S. (above 2,000 miles) and it cuts 19 major canyons along its course. At gauging station in Grand Canyon the river averages about 300 ft in width, varies from 12 to 18 feet in depth, and flows at a speed of between 2½ and 10 miles per hour. It carries past this state an average of nearly one million tons of sand and silt every hour. The river empties into the Gulf of California in Mexico. The Boulder dam is 260 mi down stream from Grand Canyon Village. The water will not be up into this part of the canyon. Every man, woman and child in the U.S. should see this canyon. It is an education within itself. This travelogue is provided weekly for The Gazette through the cooperation and sponsorship Dr. G. A. Neth, chiropractor ww offices at 110 North Resh street Anaheim. Huge Tunnel Job Nears Completion Construction work on the 13-mile San Jacinto tunnel, a link in the Metropolitan aqueduct, is rapidly nearing completion, according to F. E. Weymouth, general manager of the Metropolitan Water district. Placing of the concrete lining, which is the last job to be done in the long aqueduct bore, is now more than 80 per cent completed. All of the invert, or floor, in the tunnel has been lined with concrete and 10½ miles of the 16 ft. diameter arch has been lined. The San Jacinto tunnel will be the last major feature to be finished on the main-aqueduct of the Metropolitan Water district system, which will bring a billion gallons of water a day from the Colorado river to 13 southern California cities. Buy Now and Buy in Anaheim! YOUR HOME AND MINE BY ANNE WILSON In as much as the "village" is the focal point on the south rim, all trips are started from this point. As these are various and the points of interest many, I suggest you write the national park service for their booklet which explains them in detail. As to the park and the canyon, here are a few facts as given to me by a park attendant: The Grand Canyon national park was established by act of congress, approved February 26, 1919. It has an area of 1,009 square miles, is 56 miles long and contains 105 miles of the Colorado river. The canyon is 217 miles long, measured by the river course, width from 4 to 18 miles, all in the state of Arizona. It is 10 miles wide at Yavapai Station. The canyon bottom below Yavapai point is 2,500 feet above sea level, about 4,500 feet below the South Rim and 5,700 feet below the North Rim, making an average depth of about one mile. The canyon was formed by the river cutting down as the land moved upward with the accom-panying widening of the canyon due to the breaking down of the rock walls. The annual meeting of the Orange County Tuberculosis Health association will be held at the Ebell clubhouse in Santa Ana next Tuesday evening. Reservations for the dinner in the Peacock room at 6:30 o'clock should be made at association headquarters by Saturday noon. Election of a new board of directors will feature the business meeting. Speaker of the evening will be Dr. F. M. Pottenger, tuberculosis expert, who will speak that subject. Other entertainments being planned. Buy Now and Buy in Anaheim! Baked ham, sweet potatoes and apples are old favorites which are on every homemaker's list of oft-used menus. But until you have cooked them in an electric roaster, you don't know how delicious they can be and how easily you can prepare them. Buy a ten-pound ham. Place it in the roaster with four cups of water. Turn switch to high and cook until water boils, then cook in low for one hour. Drain and remove skin. Press one cup brown sugar over top of ham and stick with whole cloves. Return ham to roaster and cook on high heat for thirty minutes, then on low for one and one-half hours. During the last hour, cook sweet potatoes, cut in half lengthwise. Place around ham. Between the potatoes place red apples cut in half and stuffed with raisins, brown sugar and a small piece of butter. There is the dinner, cooked all at once! Add a crisp vegetable salad and a dessert, and your cooking duties are over. An electric roaster is in reality an electric oven. It bakes broilers, roasts and does other kinds of cooking with the same dependability received in an electric range oven. Roaster cooking retains food flavor, too, and has a coolness and convenience which appeals to the modern housewife.
