L. Hather and Bob Brown, just returned from a two-week trip covering over 1300 miles. A feature was the great rodeo at Reno-Nov. July 4 when the greatest bronze busters of the country participated. But the real sport came when, after stopping for three or four days at Bridgeport, county seat of Monroe, the Anaheimers were confided the information as to where they could find two virgin lakes where two, six and seven-pound trout were netted out at will. "The water was clear as crystal," says Taggart. "We could see the bottom plainly where it was 30-feet deep. The public has not learned of these lakes although they are reached by good roads." "The people of Bridgeport, population about 400, are the real westowners. It is one of the oldest towns in the state." The newspaper there was the second to be established in Calif. "The people are most hospitable and are well educated. The town is surrounded by rich cattle and mineral country." "We also visited Truckee and other points of interest, enjoying wonderful fishing throughout. McDAVID RECEIVES HIS SERVICE PIN A. B.

Growers declare that unless the tariff proposed in the permanent bill is increased the industry will be ruined by the importation of Chinese and other inferior nuts produced by pauper labor. The hearings will be held at an early date, if efforts now under way are successful.

IS MINUS WATER TODAY LOS ANGELES, July 12.—Several hundred families in the district between Manchester-ave and 96th-st are today without a drop of water in their houses. The situation, which has existed for several days, has become so critical that a complaint, signed by more than 300 citizens of the district, will be filed tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock before the public service commission in room 810, Pacific Finance-bldg. The water supply for the district has been furnished from the Melvin place water plant at 96th-st, and the consumers claim they pay J. S. Harper, superintendent, $1.25 for 800 cubic feet. offices in the next year, is the declaration of J. F. Ahlborn, postmaster. He says the receipts this year will amount to more than $33,000 which will put Anaheim in the highest grade. She has already climbed from the second grade to the seventh since he took charge of the post office in 1914. Mr. Ahlborn bases his estimates on the receipts of the first half of this year which amount to $15,847, exceeding that of the first half of last year by $2,836.78. There has already been more business during the first half of this year than during the whole year in 1914, he said. The Christmas rush will put Anaheim well into the eighth grade, he says. Christmas business last year amounted to about $3,000. This year it is expected to exceed $10,000. The receipts for the quarter ending July 1 were $7,814.70 compared with $6,320.43 during the same quarter last year. Mr. Ahlborn expects Anaheim to take her place within a few years in the first grade post offices, which is something extraordinary for a town of this size. The postoffice, he points out, is a good index to business conditions, and this speaks exceedingly well for Anaheim and vicinity.
