FULLERTON COUNCIL TELLS BOND NEEDS The city trustees have issued the following statement regarding the need for the $280,000 bond issue which will be passed upon by the voters next Thursday: Most of the present water plant was laid in 1913. At that time two wells were sunk at the present pumping plant on S. Spadra-rd near Anaheim. Most of the pumping equipment installed at that time has been replaced with pumps of larger capacity. The distribution system was laid thru the city, consisting mostly of converse lock joint pipe in sizes of from 4 to 8 inch, together with numerous lines of 2-inch standard screw pipe. The reservoir was constructed on the hill in the present park ground on the north side of the city. The distribution system is now inadequate not only from the obsolescence due to the small size pipes, but also rapid physical depreciation caused by the nature of the soils thru which it was laid. The two wells in use at the present were found inadequate in 1919 and another well was drilled and the pumping equipment has been purchased for the same. The present reservoir has not sufficient capacity to carry the load for one day during the period of maximum demand. The proposed bond issue is to provide pipe lines and a reservoir of sufficient capacity. In the season 1918-19 the consumption per capita per day was 92 gallons. The estimated per capita consumption for the year just past is 100 gallons. It is estimated for the design of the proposed system we have assumed the consumption will be 125 gallons per capita per day. This is just about the same amount used in Los Angeles. None of the water sold by the city's plant is used for irrigation, this water being supplied by the older irrigation companies in which most of the agriculturalists within the city own water stock. The city of Los Angeles in providing water mains for new districts Things Worth Knowing About Orange County In Newport Beach, East Newport and Balboa, on Newport harbor, Orange-co has a popular recreation resort to grow and prosper and thrive as the years pass by. Would you swim? A three mile stretch of breakers lures you out into the "briny." Would you bask in the sunshine on the beach? A broad strand offers such accommodations for many thousands. Would you go a fishing? Beach, pier, and rocks offer many vantage points, while the more hardy will find sport aplenty out in the Catalina channel a short distance off shore. Would you row, canoe, sail or motorboat? The seven-mile area of Newport Bay is at hand, and the Newport Harbor Yacht clubhouse offers rest and enjoyment between times. Would you golf? The Orange County country club's sporty eighteen-hole course is on the mesa just above the bay, with clubhouse overlooking the entire city and harbor, and a boat will tak you almost to flax No. 1 hole. Would you dance, bowl, eat, drink or take a fling at the gods of skill or chance? Newport and Balboa provide many places for these pleasant diversions. The City of Newport Beach, which embraces Newport, West Newport, East Newport, Balboa, and Balboa Island, owns its own water system, and a splendid brick school house. A new and adequate sewer system to cost $365,000, was recently authorized, and upon its completion a few months' licence, a program of street paving will be undertaken that eventually will result in making every street and alley a boulevard. At present the affairs of the municipality are administered by a progressive and forward looking board of trustees, consisting of J. P. Greely as chairman, L. S. Wilkinson, Goo P. Wilson, J. J. Schnitger, and Dr. Conrad Richter. This board has been responsible for many important forward steps, which assure continued growth and prosperity for the city, and also, what is in nearly every resident's heart, the harbor. 150 NEW TIME HIRED One hundred and never were in any department before here when the superscript contracta.

Partthe country district teacher would rawhere there is It is estimated for the design of the proposed system we have assumed the consumption will be 125 gallons per capita per day. This is just about the same amount used in Los Angeles. None of the water sold by the city's plant is used for irrigation, this water being supplied by the older irrigation companies in which most of the agriculturalists within the city own water stock. The city of Los Angeles in providing water mains for new districts estimates that one miner's inch will serve seven acres in the residence district. This is equivalent to about two acre feet of water per acre in the residence district. An acre foot of water is enough water to cover one acre of land to a depth of one foot. In the proposed plans for the Fullerton system we have estimated the use of water to be two acre feet per acre in the built up residence district and three acre feet per acre in the down town congested district. The proposed plans provide for a people and that area which will have to be supplied with domestic water will be approximately 645 acres. Of this area 74 acres have been placed in the congested district. With this area and the use of water above determined the maximum daily consumption at Fullerton will be 5 cubic feet per second. This is equivalent to 3,250,000 gallons per day. The pumping plant and wells are now capable of pumping this amount and the mains as designed will be capable of delivering this amount of water. The present mains will only deliver about 75 pet of this amount by pumping 24 hours per day. During the past year streets have been laid out and subdivisions have been made covering about one hundred acres joining the residence portion of the city. This territory is being rapidly built up with homes and a much larger territory will be added to the city if city water is provided. No street paving has been done since 1914 and some of the streets are badly in need of improvement which can not be made until the old leaking mains have been replaced with cast iron mains. It will take at least a year after the bonds are voted to replace the mains now in use and with leaks showing up almost every day and with very bad breaks in the water mains occurring quite frequently, the distributing system now in use will not be adequate to serve the city for a much longer time.

Central Perforates Pipe at 2020 Feet Whittier and Santa Fe Springs The Central Oil Co. is perforating the pipe and making preparations to bring in its No. 69. Drilled to 2020 feet it may make anywhere from a 20 to a 50 barrel well. The Ocean View Oil Co.'s No. 1 has been cleaned out and put in production condition. Pumping tests reveal the fact that the well will do better than 100 barrels. No. 2 is rigging up and will start drilling soon. After working with the Baldwin 1-A well for more than a year, fighting water and testing at different depths the Shell Co. of California bridged the 4563 foot well finally back to 3870 and put it on production and it is making about 15 barrels. Cole No. 1 now shows 4150 feet in sandy brown shale. The string-of tools lost in the Hart well were not recovered and are now being drilled by at 8995. Whitley No. 5 has made sufficient pumping tests to show that the well is good for a hundred barrels or possibly more. Drilled to 2364 the oil is standing at 2000 feet. As soon as tankage can be built and a pipe line run to the well the production figures of this new well will be known more accurately. No. 6 is drilling out the cement and going ahead with cable tools at 2225. No. 7 is rigging up for the rotary. Other operations in the field includes the So.

These 150 teachers have been given contracta. Yet some fifteen vacancies remain. Increased school attendance adds 50 teachers to the county quota, making a total in elementary and high schools of 570 teachers for the coming term. R. P. Mitchell, county school superintendent says that the county school report for 1921 is not complete these round figures are correct insofar as a review of the school situation is concerned. Taking the incomplete report and using the figures of completed returns from a number of the school districts, the superintendent made the following estimates of ingreases in attendance during the 1921 school year over that of 1920. Thirty per cent in the high schools. Twenty-five per cent in the high schools. Illustrating this increased attendance figures of several incorporated towns of Orange-co. are given with the number of teachers and pupils: —1920——1921— Town Pls Thrs. Pls Thrs.

"The vacancies for teachers are mainly in the primary grades." Superintendent Mitchell said. "These teachers require special training. Their work is to start the child in school life and is of great importance." Teachers are hard to get in all departments. Particularly is this so in the country districts. Apparently the teacher would rather work in the city where there is more chance for assoclation with other teachers. Some cities like Los Angeles pay teachers more. When the recent raise in pay throughout the state went into effect, Los Angeles promptly increased the pay of its teachers still further. "The natural result is that many teachers first apply for positions in the city schools. Those who do not secure city positions then take such openings as offer in the country. "I have not received complete information regarding the various teachers who are coming for the new term, as of course, they are hired by the district trustee and do not come to me until they want their certificates. "When I was a teacher? "Oh, salaries of school teachers, since that time, some fifteen years ago, have increased 66 2-3 per cent. In my first school I received $75 a month, which was considered good pay. Today the teacher of that same district receives $150 a month. "Part of the reason, outside of living costs and such items, is the fact that educational standards climbed and are still climbing." POTATO GROWING IS GIVEN BIG IMPETUS Interest in potato growing in this community has received a new impetus it was stated by H. E. Wahlberg, farm advisor, after a potato grading contest held at the Edward Long ranch, east of Stanton, where the United States standards of grading were explained by H. Truax of Los Angeles. While this section is not a potato growing one, according to the farm-advisor it is estimated that between five and six hundred acres of potatoes are grown yearly in the county, not counting the numberless small garden plots. Hence there was a good representation of growers present to hear explained the three grades. Grade No. 1 is for potatoes of the long type, which must average one and three-quarters inches in diameter and for those of the round type which must be one and seven-eighth inches in diameter. A five per cent variation is allowable, but all failing below that standard belong in grade No. 2 while grade No. 3 are culls and disregarded by the growers so far as market possibilities are concerned. The two types are best exemplified by the White Rose, which is the long type, and the British Queen of the round variety. These are the leading potatoes of the two types. FREE!
