IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of The Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago... June 19, 1880 The first social of Anaheim Lodge No. 85, A.O.U.W., was given on Monday evening and was more successful and seemed to give greater pleasure to the guests than the most sanguine member of the Lodge had dared to hope. The hall is not of the capacity to hold everyone whom the members would like to see there, and the guests, therefore comprised only the members and their relatives, together with several ladies and gentlemen who had generously consented to assist in the musical exercises of the evening. After the regular business of the Lodge had been disposed of the doors were thrown open and in a few minutes the hall was completely filled. The guests were welcomed by Master Workman Sorenson. A song by the glee club under the leadership of Dr. E. L. Cowan followed the address. Mr. Grimshaw then read "Horatio at the Bridge" and Mrs. Bessie Lawrence and John Hartung gave a duet. Mr. J. D. Bicknel of Los Angeles was introduced as the speaker of the evening and gave an elaborate address on the subject: "Secret Societies And Their have spared no pains nor expense to make this festival a success. Admission, 50 cents for gentlemen, ladies free. Strawberries and ice cream will be sold on the grounds. On Wednesday evening last Metz's hall was filled to repletion with a select and appreciative audience. Every seat was occupied and many who arrived after the entertainment began were obliged to remain standing. The acting throughout the play was excellent and the different characters in "The People's Lawyer" were well represented. "Box and Cox" as usual was good. The music by Prof. on the organ deserves special Finck on the violin and Miss Finck mention. The club feels greatly encouraged and thankful at the way its efforts have been received by the public. E. Schifflen, the lucky Arizona miner who sold his claim a few months ago for over half a million has invested $21,000 in the purchase of the A. B. Chapman place at East Los Angeles.

A sick environment cannot support a healthy top growth. The construction gang working on a new home is prone to scatter excavated soil around the proposed garden area which may be sour and not compatible with vigorous plant growth. Either this should be removed and replaced with a six-inch layer of clean top soil, or humus should be thoroughly incorporated with it to a depth of eight inches. Sources of humus are peat moss, bean straw, and steer or barnyard manure, but avoid using fresh manure, which may contain a large percentage of weed seed. Soils that have been dormant for many years may be sour and should be sweetened with hydrated lime, worked in at the rate of 35 pounds per 1,000 square feet. It is not advisable to renovate the soil unless growing conditions demand it. After the soil has been worked, rate it clean and remove clods or lumps. The proper gravel should be established and the surface carefully rolled. The procedure will show any irregularities which may be blended out with the final raking. The thicker the sod the less chances for weed growth; how seed broadcast at the rate of approximately 1½ pounds per 150 square feet, slightly less if a seeder is used. It's best to seed on a calm day or early in the morning. This minimizes the danger of the seed being blown. Divide the seed in half, sowing one lot in one direction and the other at a right angle to the first. This will insure even distribution and complete coverage of the area. Grass seed should be covered lightly with steer manure or peat moss. Keep the area moist until the surf is fairly well established. In hot weather it may be necessary to water several times a day. A fine spray should be used, as a strong stream of water may wash the seed away or uproot grass seedlings. Adequate turf maintenance is essential for beauty and permanence. Roll a new seeding lightly prior to the first mowing. This compacts the soil around the tiny hair-like roots and helps to anchor them to the soil and reduces the chance of the mower pulling roots out. With the exception of Bent lawns the mower should be set to cut at least one inch high. Clipping the lawn too short actually cuts the heart out of each green plant and extra care is required to revive it. During hot weather set the mower at approximately 1¼ inches. Remove the clippings if they are heavy enough to produce a mat but light clippings should not prove harmful.
