AMAL. EXPECTS BIG WELL AT SANTA FE WITH THE OIL OPERATORS We are going to get at Santa Fe Springs! That is the question that operators both big and small are asking about the field that a few months ago looked like a second Elk Hills. Some oil men are saying that it is going to be a one-well field, others say that the sands are being pushed up, and others are saying that a lot of dry holes are going to be drilled. Santa Fe Springs will come out all right. Like every new field discovered, certain things have to be determined before successful development can hope to be accomplished. Huntington Beach and Long Beach passed thru the same period of uncertainty and discouragement now facing Santa Fe Springs. A field that has produced the biggest high gravity well in the West, the Union's Bell No. 1, is certainly capable of producing more wells like it. The Amalgamated Oil Company will show the doubts something about Santa Fe Springs when Deluggee No. 1 goes on production. This well at 3900 showed up better than any of the wells so far drilling in the field and will make a second Bell. The General Petroleum's Springs No. 1 showed plenty of oil at 3900 feet but carried too much water to make a good producer. The water is to be shut off and a big well brought in just across the street from the Union's Bell gusher. The Standard Oil Company has three wells on the eve of production, all of which have shown the necessary evidence of being all that can be expected. The Brown rig Kellar at 4700 looks very good; Hepler No. 1 looks like a well at 2745. The Wolfe kill is showing lots of oil at 4400; and the South Whittier Community is looking very promising at 3900. Sanchez No. 1 had a nice showing at 4128 where the SK was set. Drilling at Bellmont on the B. & Mrs. No. 1 has passed the 4100 mark. This outlook for a well is still hopeful. At 3980 a couple of feet of oil sand was drilled thrust that showed up rather good. Drilling is now in tough brown shale. Alice of Hungerland Co to Wonderland Strange were the adventures that hefell Alice in Wonderland. Yet they were hardly more strange than those which have come to Alice's prototype of the real—and for that matter, the reel-world, an honest-to-goodness, flesh and blood Alice who has come from Hungerland to the land of miracles and prosperity—to wonderland. Modern Alice is now Alice Duryea, the adopted daughter of a New York woman. Six months ago she was one of the countless thousands of little orphans who are Uncle Sam's wards in the Near East. Adoption, happiness, and fame as a juvenile star in the movies came to her in no less amazing a manner than did the queer Alice was taken from the to play the heroine and accthe commission. She was to the care of Mrs. Florence Duryea, a New York woman of the Commission, an the Near East Relief Women's Organizations al headquarters in New York.

INVITES LABORER’S INTEREST (Continued from Page 1) contests is planned for May 13 at Santa Ana. Chambers of commerce and Ebell clubs are being asked to furnish the prizes. For the first contest the Orange C. of C. was asked by Miss Shepard to give the cup for the orchestra prize, the Santa Ana chamber that, for the girls’ glee club contest and that of Huntington Beach the cup for the boys’ glee club. Delegates of each chamber practically pledged a cup, which will be trophy held by the winner for one year in each case. The Ebell club of Anaheim will be asked to provide the piano content trophy; and the Fullerton Ebell club that for the voice contest. Individual contests also will be held, with pins for prizes. Malcom Fraser said that the Anaheim C. of C. would assist in helping to obtain the cups at cost. All students enrolled, whether they received instruction unded public or private school teachers, are eligible to compete in each school, which will have its contest preliminary to general contest of all the high schools in the county. L. L. Shaw of Santa Ana, reporting for the committee on a road up Saddleback mountain (Mount Santiago), urged that plans for such a road be started at once. The county lacks good mountain roads, he declared. The route via Silverado canyon was recommended. This would make a road 13 miles long on the mountain and 40 miles from Santa Ana. Shaw said the commercial value of the road would be considerable, because the mountain, which is 5,680 feet high and rises practically from the sea, commands a magnificent panorama. Low H. Wallace for the harbor committee, said that in spite of the weather and the fact that no so-going dredge was available, the contractors still were $5,000 cubic yards ahead of their schedule. Work, however, has been slow. Joseph Beck of Newport Beach, for the merchant marine committee, said that business had been good building materials for use in Orange.

SPIDER CONTROL IN AVOCADO GROVES The presence of the avocado red spider on the trees in large numbers while the foliage is still green should be a sufficient indication of impending injury to cause the grower to begin immediate application of control measures, says the U. S. Dept. of Agri. The grower should not wait until the foliage attacked becomes noticeably brown prematurely and begins to drop. During the winter, after the fruit has been picked, the bulletin advises use the liquid lime-sulphur 1 to 60. When the temperature is above the normal and the trees do not attain a thoroughly dormant condition, the liquid lime-sulphur should be reduced Bury Sale Days 8th while the foliage is still green should be a sufficient indication of impending injury to cause the grower to begin immediate application of control measures, says the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture. The grower should not wait until the foliage attacked becomes noticeably brown prematurely and begins to drop. During the winter, after the fruit has been picked, the bulletin advises use of the liquid lime-sulphur 1 to 60. When the temperature is above the normal and the trees do not attain a thoroughly dormant condition, the liquid lime-sulphur should be reduced to 1 to 75. If the red spiders are present while the fruit is still unpicked in the fall, 40 per cent nicotine sulphate 1 to 900, with the addition of 2 to 3 pounds of fish oil soap to each 100 gallons of the diluted spray, will give temporary relief and will not discolor the fruit. Thorough application is a most essential point in combating the red spider, says the bulletin with emphasis. If haphazard work is performed and much of the foliage left unsprayed, such infested foliage serves as a source of reinfestation to the tree, and the mites will be more in evidence after the application than when thorough work has been done. FEARS CUT IN ARMY WASHINGTON, March 30 — The country will be placed "in a dangerous state of unpreparedness," says President Harding, if the army and navy are cut below the limits advised by advisors in the two services. The reduction of the navy's personnel to 65,000 is regarded as especially unfortunate. The 5-5-3 naval ratio would be put out of kilter thereby, the president declared. The senate is aiding the president. The house meanwhile defeated appendedments which would have increased the number of officers in the navy to 13,000, as the president desired, from 11,000. LIQUOR STEALS: BRAINS LONDON, March 30 — "Six drops of an alcoholic liquor will depreciate a man's critical acumen 10 per cent," said George Bernard Shaw, answering Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, who said that a teetotaler is not equipped to appreciate good literature.
