500 CHICKENS BURN IN BROODER HOUSE CYPRESS, April 12. (Special) Julius Hollingsworth of near Cypress lost his brooder house by fire on Saturday night and also suffered the loss of 500 baby chicks. Mr. Hollingsworth had been out earlier in the morning, between the hours of one and two and found the fire running low. The house was heated with a kerosene stove and he turned the flame up, watching it a few minutes to see that it was all right. It seemed to be in perfect order so he went back to his slumbers. The fire was discovered about 4 o'clock and too late to save the brooder or the contents. The Farm Bureau meeting will be held on Thursday evening at Centralia school. It is hoped there will be a good attendance at this meeting, various business matters will be discussed. Among these will be the question of purchasing a gas plate and other cooking utensils for the Cypress granmar school, the articles to be used at the social gatherings which are so often held in the building. The Cypress P.T. A. met at the Cypress grammar school on Friday afternoon. There was a good attendance and a number of important matters came up for discussion. Among these was the selection of a committee to look up prices for playground equipment and look after various other details in the purchase of these articles. It was decided to use the money which was recently received at the social affairs held and the purchase will include a swing, a horizontal bar and a teeter-totter. The committee appointed is composed of Mrs. Reinnie, Mrs. John and Mrs. Cutter. When they have their report ready they will call a special meeting and the day the new equipment is to be installed on the grounds will be made a gala day. A picnic dinner will be served by the ladies and the entire community will join in the polifications of the event. MOTOR TO MADAME MODIESKA'S RANCH LA HABRA CENTER ARGUES ON "DOBBIN" LA HABRA, April 11—The control and extinction of the Argentine ant was the subject of the La Habra Farm bureau, which held the regular monthly meeting at the school auditorium Thursday night. After the business session a paper was read by Mrs. N. H. Garretson, "Town Tattlings of the Farm Bureau." A fund of information, an edificial and a breccy hit-on current topics makes this monthly sheet a pleasant diversion. A committee to act on the fair proposition was appointed. The members are E. W. Hilbs, Mrs. N. H. Garretson, W. L. York, A. J. Launer, H. R. Gurley, Everett Sutton and J. G. Sargent of Brea. The chairman of the Farm Bureau picnic invited the local association to be prepared with some stunt to put on at the picnic. J. I. Ansley, Ray Pranta and A. S. Randall were given this matter to prepare. A lively discussion on "The Horse Versus the Tractor" was enjoyed. Mr. Stubbs, of the Sergent ranch, and Mr. F. W. Bishop leading the discussion Many pertinent points were brought out. Mr. Twombly of Fullerton, had both and was of the opinion that the horse was a necessity, in some places; others took the stand that the horse was a back number. Mrs. N. H. Neilerman, who owns eight acres of citrus orchard, and manages it herself, thought that the horse was a necessity in some soils. Mr Twombly was prepared to break up his arguments with statistics and thought that the man who said a tractor was not expensive had not received his garage bill yet. The consensus of opinion was that it broke about fifty-fifty. Artaur Borden, of the State Agriculture bureau, gave a very interesting talk on the Argentine ant pest. The increase in southern California in the past ten years was from 1000 to 12,000 acres of infested land.

It is proposed to form a 364th Supply Company Assn. At the last reunion in Santa Ana there were eighty present.

COUNTY TREASURER GETS BIG NEW SAFE With the installation in the county treasurer's office of a new manganese steel safe, weighing more than four tons, County Treasurer J. C. Joplin and other county officials have a feeling of security so far as the safety of the county's money and other valuables is concerned. Resembling the breech of a huge coast defense cannon with a swinging door 39 inches in diameter the safe has an imposing appearance. It is a Moser safe, model No. 83, and of a spherical design. The safe was purchased by the county from the Calexico National bank following the consolidation of that institution with the First National bank of Calexico. It was brot from the Imperial county town on a truck, the trip being made over the mountains into San Diego. It was on the road for a period of three days, arriving Saturday morning about 3 o'clock. County officials have realized the need of such a strong box for some time, not only because of a more pressing need for more room in which to store securities but for the sake of safety.

POMEROY Distributor for Northern Orange County 134 S. Los Angeles St. Anaheim Chalmers Step by Step with the Stars and Stripes Yankee Chewing Gum Works Way 'Round World A LONG about 1845, General Santa Ana, former Mexican dictator, thou in exile in New York, introduced chewing gum to his American acquaintances. General Santa Ana carried a hall of gum from the Zapote tree—chicle—in his cuter coat pocket and distributed samples liberally. Thomas Adams, later to father the chewing gum industry in America, took one of the samples. A bit of kitchen chemistry produced his one time famous "black jack." General Santa Ana is scarcely remembered today but chewing gum is gradually working its toothsome way around the world. Today it is chewed in virtually every modern language, as well as in some extremely out of the way places. Explorers and traders introduced it to the Eskimos and the Icelanders, and the tribes of northern Siberia. Traders likewise took it into the South Sea Islands. But it took the World War to introduce it to the world at large. Canadian soldiers first found it was a good substitute for tobacco in the trenches where smbking wasn't permitted. They introduced it to the Belgians and the French pollus. Later the American doughboy spread its popularity with characteristic free handedness. Last year chewing gum exports exceeded $2,600,000. In 1913 they were about $100,000. No longer is gum chewing a short pants habit. Hundreds of thousands of grown-ups chew gum. The King and Queen of Norway became converts at the Norwegian-American Exposition last September. President Wilson was noted in the press dispatches as having chewed gum at the Versailles peace conference. More peoples chew it today than Nations. Little journeys with the trail blazers of foreign trade extension will feature the eighth annual convention of the National Foreign Trade Council at Cleveland, May 4-7. They will illustrate interestingly and instructively how American made products are now reaching out for new markets at the very ends of the earth.

Williams in your paper April 1st her twelve hens laid a fraction less than 68 1/2 per cent in February and a little less than 70 1/2 per cent in March. April 8th Mr. C. A. Johnson talks about 'Quality.' We would like to know where the 'Quality' comes in. All he shows is more weight, or 'Quantity.' Last year we hatched 12 chicks out of a setting Ancona eggs. We raised six roosters and four pullets out of the lot. In February these four pullets laid 99 eggs, or 80 per cent, and in March 162 eggs, or $2 1/4 per cent. A rooster of a different strain was put with them, and 97 per cent of all the eggs set from these birds hatched fine healthy chicks. That's what we call 'Quality' and 'Quantity.'

SIX BIG DAYS Come One—Come All Adults 50e Children 30e Tax Included SECOND & BDWAY SANTA ANA GREGG TELLS HOW MUCH HELP GIVEN Mexicans do not predominate in the distribution of state and county aid—contrary to the general impression, according to information contained in a report made by County Aid Commissioner W. S. Gregg to the board of supervisors. The report covers aid distributed for February in Orange co. It shows plainly, according to Gregg, that the attitude of the Mexicans toward taking charity is slowly and surely changing and the proper instruction regarding living conditions, schooling, and self-dependence which is being taught by various welfare workers for their betterment, is having a beneficial effect. Gregg also stated in his report that aid, when it is needed, along with the idea of becoming self-sustaining as soon as possible, is a great thing, but too great an amount of aid given where less is sufficient in really a detriment. So many different circumstances enter into the need of a case that it is hard to apply any set rule, he said. Mexican state aid cases numbered eight during February, including 24 persons an dan expenditure of $157.50. County aid was given to 53 Mexican cases, including 161 persons at a total cost of $637.50, making a total Mexican aid cost of $795. White cases for which state aid was secured during February were 21, including 62 persons, at a cost of $581.25. County aid was given in 56 cases to whites and 142 persons were included in these cases at a total cost of $846 making the aid cost of whites in the county $1,427.25 for February. This makes a total aid cost of $2,222.25 for February.
