CAMP FIRE PERMIT IS NOW NECESSARY According to Paul G. Redington, district forester of the U.S. Forest Service, beginning June 1 written permits will be required before camp fires may be built in at least ten of the National Forests in California. This requirement has become necessary because of the large number of forest fires, traceable directly to the carelessness of tourists, campers, hunters and fishermen, which have occurred within the National Forests the last few years. Last year over one and one-half million people visited the National Forests in Calif., and the travel into the Forests has become so great that every possible precaution must be taken to prevent forest fires from startling. All campers and tourists are urged to get a written permit before building any fires and should be very careful to see that all fires are thoroughly out before they are left. Camp fire permits will be required in the Angeles, Cleveland, Eldorado, Klamath, Lassen, Plumas, Santa Barbara, Shaala and Tahoe and Trinity National Forests. Camp fire permits are issued free of charge by all Forest Officers in the field and by numerous merchants and fire agents on and near the National Forests.

BREA CANYON DEEP WELL IN OIL SAND BREA FIELD The Brea Canyon Oil Co.'s deep test well No. 32 is ready to determine whether or not there will be more deep drilling in the Brea field. Drilled to 4187 a nice sand was struck, the only real oil sand of any consequence in the field below 4000 feet. Preparations are now being made to test the capacity of the well. As the well is finishing up in three inch casing, the oil sand will just be tapped. Should the production warrant a bigger hole will be started that will allow completion either in 6 or 4 inch. As announced last week the Eddistone Oil Corporation has started work on a deep test well to be drilled in the heart of the old Puente field northwest of Brea. The property constitutes the first producing field in California, no wells having been drilled there since 1598. The drill of a deep well in search of a lower sand will be watched with tremendous interest. The Columbia Oil Co. has proven conclusively that the very productive sands struck by the General Petroleum at 15 and 16 hundred on the Tonner property adjoining Menchego No. 1 and No. 2 do not extend westward even to the next property. Menchego No. 2 is drilling at 3725 in hard sand shale, and is not showing so very much oil. Menchego No. 1 drilled to 3230 is standing idle, awaiting developments. The Columbia's next big well looks like Orange No. 7, now drilling at 3475, this well is showing a lot of rich oil sand. Pico No. 2 at 3300 is in brown shale, and No. 3 stands cemented at 2800. Rigging up is about completed to start drilling at Fisher No. 2 On the Columbia's Olinda property No. 3 is making hole in shale at 3050, and 38 is in the oil sand at 2700. The Fullerton Oil Co. has but one well drilling in the Brea field this week. No. 4 is making hole at 2400, shale. No. 6 is held up with a fishing job at 3300. No. 14 stands cemented at 2395, and No. 16 is standing at 3225. No. 17 is a new rig, complete and ready for the drill. The General Petroleum Co. is doing the deep drilling test work in the Tonner field. At No. 6 a depth of 4145 has been reached without finding even much of a showing. No. 11 Tonner is drilling in hard sand at 3225. No. 12 stands cemented at 1185. No. 1, the discovery well of the field is redrilling years. This service company also is now the distributing agency for Apex the highest grade 100 per cent pure Pennsylvania oil, both wholesale and retail, at a price no higher than inferior grades and less than many good ones. As a result, the company is closing out, at practically 20 per cent less than other dealers ask, a half carload of another oil. CROWN STAGE WINS OVER WHITE LINES In a decision handed down by the railroad commission in the case of the Crown Stage against the White Bus line and the White Stage line the commission defined the operative rights of automobile transportation companies engaged in business before the regulatory statute of May 1917 was passed. In this case the commission ordered the White Bus line and the White Stage line to desist operating as a transportation company between Santa Ana and Anaheim and intermediate points. The defendant companies hold an operative right for a through service between Los Angeles and San Diego and because of this claimed the right to operate a local service between Anaheim and Santa Ana without obtaining, from the commission, a certificate of public convenience and necessity. The commission holds that notwithstanding the defendant companies were operating before the statute of 1917 they are subject to regulation by the commission. "The only basis for any distinction between transportation companies operating prior to May 1, 1917, and those which commenced subsequent to that time is in the manner of creation of their operative rights." The act in effect declared that such operations as were actually being carried on in good faith on May 1, 1917, would be recognized as a lawful right to be exercised by the person, or corporation then in the enjoyment of them. Every subsequent deviation from or change in such operations must be under the approval and authorization of the regulatory body," says the decision. This ruling will affect a number of companies now operating under The Village Gossip "Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." So goes the old song, and Mike Jackson, mountain hermit, is a firm believer in that doctrine. Last March Jackson was arrested after a desperate fight with the sheriff and a possse of deputies in a canyon near El Modena. He had been living in an improvised hut in the foothills of the Irvine ranch for about four years. His arrest followed an alleged attempt to steal a coat from a barn of a rancher near El Modena. Jackson was brought before Justice of the Peace Cox several times but neither Judge Cox nor the district attorney could get anything intelligible out of him. Jackson persisted in declaring that he was the "Devil." "I wanna go home," he wailed when brought into court. Jackson was brought before the lunacy commission and after an examination was committed to the Norwalk statue hospital April 27 last. While being taken to that institution he pleaded with Constable W. N. Carter to let him go home. Today Sheriff C. E. Jackson received a letter from C. F. Applegate, medical superintendent at the state hospital, stating that Jackson took "French leave" June 5. Further investigation revealed that he had gone back to his old haunts on the Irvine ranch. It is understood that he will not be molested unless he creates another disturbance. The hermit threatened Sheriff Jackson with a long compass when Jackson tried to arrest him. The hermit was severely wounded in a rock fight with the sheriff's posse. He prefers to live a life of solitude in the hills, cultivating a small plot of ground. City Briefs Mrs. E., Kneelp of 214 N. Claudina-st. is very ill. H. A. Dickel made a trip to Pasadena yesterday. Arther G. Coops has just returned from Philadelphia to spend the summer with his parents. The Fullerton Oil Co. has but one well drilling in the Brea field this week. No. 4 is making hole at 2400 shale. No. 6 is held up with a fishing job at 3200. No. 14 stands cemented at 2395, and No. 16 is standing at 3225. No. 17 is a new rig, complete and ready for the drill. The General Petroleum Co. is doing the deep drilling test work in the Tonner Field. At No. 6 a depth of 4145 has been reached without finding even much of a showing. No. 11 Tonner is drilling in hard sand at 3225. No. 12 stands cemented at 1185. No. 1, the discovery well of the field is redrilling and deepening at 1675, the formation being oil sand. The Olinda Land Co's, No. 23 started to show oil at 600 feet, the product being a light oil. The showing at 375 still continues making the well look exceedingly good. At No. 22 a fishing job is holding up the work at 2600. In an effort to find out whether or not the old Olinda field had a deep sand underlying the 3000 foot "stuff" from which production has been drawn for a quarter of a century, the Petroleum Development Co. drilled No. 88 to 1300 feet and put the well on a pumping test. After being pumped for a week, the well produced a little water but no oil. No. 92 at 2965 is putting in the perforated pipe to bring in, No. 93 at 2600 is showing oil and gas. No. 94 at 2300 is drilling gray sand. The redrilling of No. 88 by the West Coast Oil Co. is making progress and soon new hole will be making at 1900, redrilling is now at 1775. No. 83 is drilling in the conglomerate at 1345, going a little slow. The Union has slowed its operations in the Brea Canyon and Stearns field a bit. Two wells are drilling on the Stearns and one on the Naranjal property. Stearns No. 56 looks like one of the shallowest wells in the field. At 1191 this well struck the sand and now stands cemented. Stearns No. 82 is drilling at 2675 in brown sandy shale Naranjal No. 10 is nearing production, Drilling at 3200 it is in the oil sand and looking good. Some iron sidetracked at 825 is proving a difficult problem for the La Habra Midway. The iron keeps dropping in sticks in the wall preventing passage of the pipe. Twenty-five feet of new hole was made in spite of the obstruction, and drilling is now at 850 in hard shale. ORANGE-CO AGENCY FOR HIGH-TEST GAS After months of effort, the Orange-co Motor Service Co., at the corner of No. Lemon-st and the State Highway, has acquired the sole distributing agency in Orange-co for Puente gasoline, California's highest grade (64 gravity) for over 35 subsequent to that time is in the manner of creation of their operative rights. The act in effect declared that such operations as were actually being carried on in good faith on May 1, 1917, would be recognized as a lawful right to be exercised by the person, or corporation then in the enjoyment of them. Every subsequent deviation from or change in such operations must be under the approval and authorization of the regulatory body," says the decision. This ruling will affect a number of companies now operating under rights acquired before May 1, 1917. The commission holds that all companies originally operating between through points must obtain a certificate of public convenience and necessity in order to initiate local service. DECIDUOUS PRUNING AND TREE REPAIR Apricot, apple, peach and other deciduous fruit growers will attend the summer pruning demonstrations next week under the auspices of the Orange County Farm Bureau. Two full days of deciduous fruit demonstrations will be held Tuesday, June 14th and Wednesday, June 15th. Dr. J. C. Whitten, of the College of Agriculture, will assist in following up the pruning done on demonstration trees last winter. A certain amount of June pinching and pruning is very effective in the production of more and better fruit. Methods of summer pruning, tree repair, tree bracing and propping will be shown at these meetings. The following schedule of demonstrations has been arranged: Tuesday, June 14, 10 a.m.-Allen Bros., one mile north Garden Grove. 2 p.m.-D.J. Dodge, Costa Mesa. Wednesday, June 15, 10 a.m., West Orange-Jas. Smiley, N. Flower-st. 2 p.m.-Cypress, A.L.Bennett. These field meetings will be of especial interest to deciduous growers, whether you have one tree or one thousand. The methods recommended by the College of Agriculture in these meetings are being adopted by orchard men in general over the state.

Calif., that the Santa Fe trail is temporarily closed between Albuquerque and La Junta. Flood conditions which have recently swept Pueblo are responsible. All bridges are out. However, this does not mean that motor car travel between Sou. Calif. and eastern points is completely at a standstill. The Auto Club has arranged a detour by way of Estancia Clovis and Dodge City for auto owners who find it necessary to undertake this trip. The club crew which is engaged in a nation-wide charting trip has been marooned near Pecos in Texas on account of flood conditions. Word is received daily from members of this crew in regard to road conditions throughout the southern states and this information may be obtained by motorists who are planning an eastern trip at this time. Local Highway conditions and general road conditions throughout the southern part of the state are excellent, despite the rains of last month. Both roads to Lake Tahoe and vicinity are now open. These are Truckee-Donner Lake road and the Placerville-Strawberry road, and are in wonderful shape. It is also stated that the Big Oak Flat road into Yosemite valley is excellent. There will be more summer touring this year here-abouts than ever before. Every city, town, hamlet and rural district in America is sister to Pueblo in its distress. There are many Americans who never were in Colorado—who live far from it—who would give just as cheerfully and generously for relief if outside aid were needed, as do the residents of the Centennial State themselves. There is a bond of sympathy and common interest that makes Americans one great family. —If it's from Witman's it's good! —Try Plain Dealer Want Ads.
