C.F. Lyen, Cypress, Plans to Buy Ranch Returning to his home in Cypress last Friday, C. F. Lyen, prominent citizen and furrier of that city, has announced his probable purchase of an 1100 acre ranch 2500 feet in altitude in the foothills of the high Sierras where he proposes to place his herd of Karakul sheep. Travelling more than a thousand miles, he visited six ranches east and north of Fresno and found only one with good feed on it, the one he plans to buy. He hopes to close the deal for its purchase this week, the consideration said to be $20,000 cash. In his travels, begun two weeks ago, he disclosed the drouth to be quite pronounced and that the most astonishing thing is the fact that he saw mere handfuls of cattle where, in former winters, many hundreds were grazing. This condition is due to the high prices for beef and the scarcity of feed. He stated that a very large part of the stock fat enough to be butchered had been sold for slaughter. Fields of oats and barley that at this time of year would normally be at least a foot high are either dormant, just coming up or at most a few inches high. Mr. Lyen stated many fields are merely plowed up in great clods and left for the anticipated rains to soften them up before any planting can be done. He saw one peach tree, apparently fooled by the warm weather, in full bloom and in the hills the sweet-scented manzanita blossoms were alive with the hum of bees, very un- at this time of year would normally be at least a foot high are either dormant, just coming up or at most a few inches high. Mr. Lyen stated many fields are merely plowed up in great clods and left for the anticipated rains to soften them up before any planting can be done. He saw one peach tree, apparently fooled by the warm weather, in full bloom and in the hills the sweet-scented manzanita blossoms were alive with the hum of bees, very uncommon as a rule in January. Also found in his travels through the northern part of the state and upon visiting Friant Dam, the dam was only about one-fourth full, which gives it practically no usable water at this time. Many springs, which usually flow the year around, are now entirely dried up. The dry season seems to be quite general and not located in the southern part of the state as we find it here in Orange county. ANNUAL DINNER FOR SO.

Large plate glass windows form the complete front, south and north sides of the new structure and through this open effect, the display of new cars can be viewed from every angle.

NO FISHING AT OLIVE BRIDGE—SIGNS SAY SO Two signs point an accusing warning to motorists approaching the Olive bridge from both directions on the Olive-Anaheim road. "No Fishing Off Bridge," is print-ed in bold black letters on the highway signs, it was reported this week by Izaak Walton anglers of this vicinity. Some spokesmen feel that the sign posters may be suffering from preverted senses of humor. Other Waltons presented the theory that the installation was by a crew unaccustomed both to California's climate and to the limitations of fishing pole's reel or a piscator's casting ability. Shasta county had, at the last farm census, 1,417 farms covering 730,000 acres with livestock products leading producers.
