Have electric HOT WATER in your home for Economy IN THE DAYS 75 YEARS APRIL 15, 1871 Last Saturday night between the hours of 8 and 9 o'clock, Anaheim was brilliantly illuminated for the space of three seconds, a beautiful scintillating meter wdhich appeared to be moving northerly direction. It was followed by a long phosphorescent tail that gradually expanded in a double one with varigated colors. After passing a short distance over the city it exploded without noise and formed into wto yellowish balls which replaced with various colors like sky rocket and disappeared almost immediately. A slight sulphur smell was perceptible in the mosphere for a few minutes after the explosion. Last week San Francisco visited by a couple of slight early quake shocks. One lasted this seconds. This is the first early quake that has occurred in the locality for a year. Official information has been received from the postmaster general that, by an act of congress passed Feb. 28, 1871, a postmaster or mail route has been established between Anaheim and S Bernardino. The postmaster Anaheim has been charged with the department to make a skiff of the route and give all information necessary for the letting of the contract for carrying the mails over the same. The statement of Theodore Ri pau. city treasurer, shows that in the seven months ending April 10, there was paid into the treasury for licenses $494.14. Economy Thrifty is the word for an Electric Water Heater! When you have electric hot water in your home, you get the benefit of a special Edison electric rate that makes the operating cost surprisingly low. You save in other ways, too. An Electric Water Heater gives trouble-free service and lasts for years. Add these economies to the completely automatic operation, dependability and cleanliness of an Electric Water Heater...and it's easy to see why so many families are planning to change to electric water heating as soon as new Electric Water Heaters are available.

Anaheim Merchants Lead in Protest (Continued from Page 1) living costs were given at a tenth of one per cent. Food costs were virtually unchanged over the month (dropping a tenth of a per cent) as price declines for eggs, oranges and potatoes were almost entirely offset by price rises in other fresh fruits and vegetables. Eggs dropped by 12 per cent to sell at an average price of 55 cents a dozen; oranges dropped 6 per cent following a sharp drop in January; potatoes eased off 3 per cent after the 16 per cent rise reported last month.

Miss Robison portrayed the part of Mrs. Perkins too perfection, while Miss Heimann and Miss Fay as Nellie and Hattie Perkins displayed great aptness for the stage. Mrs. Hartung, the Misses Zeyn and Williams, also acted their lines well. C. S. Rogers as Mr. Perkins, Frank Purdy as the country cousin and Tom Johnson as the jealous lover were quite laughable. Mr. Purdy sang "I'm the Man" and responded to an encore with an original composition entitled, "Tamales at the Ostrich Farm" which brought down the house.

Questions on new flour answered by Carol Drake Why are we having a "new" flour? The new flour which is now (or going to be) on the market makes it possible to obtain more flour from the same amount of wheat. The purpose of the new flour is to stretch the grain supply and to furnish more bread to the starving people in other lands. What is meant by 80% extraction flour? That's what the new flour is to be, isn't it? This means that the flour millers will get 80 pounds of flour from 100 pounds of cleaned wheat. Ordinarily 72 pounds of flour, while we are mulled from 100 pounds of wheat. That extra 8 pounds will make the breed supply stretch to help feed more people. Will the new flour be as nutritious as regular flour? Yes, if enriched according to present standards, it will be even more nutritious than regular flour, especially in the B vitamins and iron. Tests on this aren't complete as yet. Why is the color different? The color is slightly more creamy because more of the darker parts of the wheat kernel are left in the flour. Can I use the new flour in my regular recipes? Our experiments with the new flour to date show that you can use the flour in your regular recipes without change. Quick-Change Artist MILWAUKEE—You should have seen this climate-spoiled, sun-loving Californian yesterday. In the cold, drafty back rooms of Milwaukee grocery stores, shucking the wraps off small-sized Sunkist Navels! To make small oranges move faster, an enterprising jobber here has made a purchase of mesh bags and sold them to his customers at cost. Working with him on the plan, Champ Brown, Exchange Sales Manager for the Milwaukee District, now has Irving Nilsen, Dealer Service man, calling on these dealers and showing them how to put on a Small Orange promotion. Ever watch a Sunkist Dealer Service man work? Last call we made yesterday was a typical example: First Nilsen greets the proprietor with a friendly smile and says, "Sunkist man." The proprietor smiles broadly in welcome. ("Sunkist man", your reporter finds, is a magic phrase in a food store). He takes us to the back room, brings us a bundle of mesh bags and a stack of 344s. Then he and Nilsen figure how many 344s to put in each bag and at what price. The dealer wants the price too high. Nilsen, the merchandiser, shows him how he will come out better by moving the fruit faster at a lower price. Then Nilsen the merchandiser turns into Nilsen the fruit handler. We bag the fruit. When we've finished—with icy fingers—we grab a couple of those go-cart affairs with wire baskets and haul the bags, 32 of them, up front near the check stand. Piled there they make a colorful, tempting display. Now Nilsen the fruit handler turns into Nilsen the artist! Quickly, neatly, he letters Sunkist price cards for the display, and price flyers for the window. He puts up other Sunkist material, including a tan wall Nilsen the merchant turns into Nilsen the fruit handler. We bag the fruit. When we've finished—with icy fingers—we grab a couple of those go-cart affairs with wire baskets and haul the bugs, 32 of them, up front near the check stand. Piled there they make a colorful, tempting display. Now Nilsen the fruit handler turns into Nilsen the artist! Quickly, neatly, he letters Sunkist price cards for the display, and price flyers for the window. He puts up other Sunkist material, including a ten-foot wall-banner that dominates the entire store! "Thanks, boys!" the proprietor beams. "Thanks!" Now Nilsen the artist becomes Nilsen the salesman. "I want you to watch how fast this small fruit moves now," he says to the dealer very seriously. "This is just a demonstration. Next time we want you to do this for yourself. Understand? It'll mean more sales, more profits, if you keep on doing it." "Okay," the dealer says, "I will! Come again soon." Nilsen is typical of the men who represent Exchange growers to the retail dealers of America. They're intelligent men, highly trained, highly versatile. There's no similar group in the entire produce industry. In the era ahead, when people have less money to spend and selling gets tough, it will be no small advantage to have these men working for you. More from Milwaukee two weeks from today.
