Sweet Anaheim, of noble birth—You hold a place upon this earth, That eveniden, with her worth, Could not exceed your lack of dearth.
I am so delighted to find myself in this pretty city of Anaheim, that I see very know how to express my gratitude.
Fair Anaheim, you have the clime; you have the fields and everything—all those things that make life sublime. Here infinite greenery.
LABORATORY LOCATED IN ANAHEIM
Work Begun on Enterprise of 18 Fruit Ass's on Lincoln-ave
After several months of preliminary organization actual construction work has begun on a laboratory for the checking of fertilizers and the investigation of soil problems for the citrus growers of Orange county. The site for the laboratory has been leased from the Anaheim Citrus Farm.
Sweet Anaheim, of noble birth—
You hold a place upon this earth,
That eveniden, with her worth,
Could not exceed your lack or dearth.
I am so delighted to find myself in this pretty city of Ananecim, that I scarcely know how to express my gratitude.
Fair Anaheim, you have the clime;
you have the fields and everything—
all those things that make life sublime. Here; infinite goodness has given you almost perpetual sunshine, but you are not torrid—the sea is at your feet—nor arid either like the non-productive wastes of the deserts. Your rains come pleasantly and seasonably, and water the spot that I can only think is a veritable protege of nature.
Your fields will produce with slight effort; your soil is so prolific that you may well be called the head quarters of the vegetable kingdom. Your celebrated citrus belt is one of the most potential factors in the world of foodstuffs.
I wonder if you appreciate it all. I am here to tell you about the things that you overlook—strange, isn't it, that I should have the audacity to do so? But is it not true that very often somebody else has to call our attention to the charms and the advantages and resources, that we know so well and which we call our own—but which we often forget about.
Am here to preach "Greater Prosperity." I am sure you have plenty of that sort of thing, but all do not participate in it. My wish is to see every inhabitant a participant in your marvelous productive wealth. All of us must be reminded occasionally of the joys and good things of life, and I carry these reminders as a side-line of Greater Prosperity.
Please do not take my drollery too seriously, as it is only the emotions of a humble cowboy's heart, and like all other humans a cowboy can see and feel like ordinary sort of folks.
Why am I mysterious? Oh! I cannot tell you now, but before I leave Anaheim I will divulge the secret: I want to get acquainted with you all, and I want you all to help me in my work. I am a campagner—my motto is, "Buy-in-Anaheim."
My masking helps me and it saves your beautiful landscape from being marred. When nature was distributing her charms, she entirely overlooked this cowboy, but since she has been so bountifully kind to Anaheim, I am content to masquerade and look
Work Begun on Enterprise of 18 Fruit Ass'n on Lincoln-ave
After several months of preliminary organization actual construction work has begun on a laboratory for the checking of fertilizers and the investigation of soil problems for the citrus growers of Orange county. The site for the laboratory has been leased from the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Ass'n just west of their new West Anaheim house on Lincoln avenue:
The Laboratory Association is made-up of eighteen associations in the Northern Orange and the Orange County Fruit Exchanges and the actual cost of construction and equipment is borne by them in proportion to their shipments. The board of directors is made up of W. M. Belding, Tustin; S. S. Twombly, Fullerton; Lucien Flippen, Orange; J. Sultivan, Placentia; C. J. Klatt, Santa Ana, and D. D. Waynick, or Anaheim is chemist in charge and director of the laboratory as to organization and operation.
The laboratory has the full endorsement of the directors of the Farm Bureau and had its inception in the efforts of the fertilizer committee of that organization to bring about the purchase of manure fertilizers on the analysis basis instead of the present unsatisfactory ton basis. It is not proposed to adopt any arbitrary standard which various fertilizers must meet but to value them on their nitrogen and organic matter content. With full facilities for carrying on this work both as to sampling and analysis the rapid adoption of the unit basis of purchase is easily practicable. The Farm Advisory office estimates that 4,000 carloads of manure alone are used in the county every year representing an expenditure of $8000-000. Many thousand dollars will be saved to the growers by a thorough check on the purchase of this material.
Equipment will be provided for the rapid determination of moisture in soils as a guide to irrigation practice. Facilities will be available for determining the actual results of different systems of fertilization on the trees. Determination of excessive salt concentration as they are liable to occur under irrigation will be handled as the need arises. The laboratory will be a very material aid in determining how far poor soil conditions are responsible for the health of citrus trees.
While the laboratory is organized under the Exchange Assns., its facilities will be available for all growers. Its oxygen will be on a basis

My masking helps me and it saves your beautiful landscape from being marred. When nature was distributing her charms, she entirely overlooked this cowboy, but since she has been so bountifully kind to Anaheim. I am content to masquerade and look upon her better work.
While I am here I will draw some cartoons and I will attempt to write. I am most interested in the "Buy-in-Anaheim" campaign. But I boost for Greater Prosperity; for parks, for more and better schools; for better recreation for the youth; for better streets—for everything that skills happiness to you—lucky people who dwell in fair Anaheim.
Open Prosperity—openly arrived at by a Mysterious Cowboy Cartoonist. That is the slogan and I challenge Gilbert Chesterton to bring out a better paradox than this one. The idea is, we get the desired results in the most mysterious manner. Lots of fun is in store for you all. Be like the cowboy; get his habits; do as he does, and see the rewards.
What my readers to help me long in my work. Send me your best thought out suggestions for improvements and civic betterment. Give me prose and jingle—wax eloquent and wax facetous. Humor aids greatly in bringing about a realization of this work.
When you meet me on the public streets, come up to my and shake my hand. It will be the same mit that has been shaken by royalty and earthquakes. I want to know you and you had better know me. I wear a "shakeometer" and before I leave this subline place, I will give you the shake record. The girls are invited to shake with me also, but this request has nothing to do with the shimmey.
Adios for today.

Dispute Arises Over Sounds of Revelry in One of the Rooms
LOS ANGELES, May 31.—Tragedy followed close on the heels of gayety in an apartment house in Colton-st today when one man was shot and perhaps fatally wounded in a dispute declared to have grown out of the objections of a guest of the house to the sounds of revelry in one of the rooms of the place, according to a police report.
The man shot was William Antior, 30, a disabled veteran of the World War and a proprietor of a transfer business, who lives at 1142 East Twenty-fifth-st.
He was removed to the Clara Barton hospital in a critical condition with four bullet wounds in his chest. Surgeons said he will not recover.
Robert Brown, a guest of the apartment house, who was declared to have done the shooting, surrendered to an officer and was locked up in the city jail on a charge of assault wit ha deadly weapon with intent to commit murder.
Antior was declared to have been shot just outside Brown's apartment. When he fell to the floor of the hallway in the apartment house, two women picked him up and bore him to a porch, after which they notified the receiving hospital.
Detectives said that Antior, his wife, Mrs. Pearl Antior, and Mrs. Nola Turner were visiting at the apartment of Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Rabenau in Colton-st.
The statements of Mrs. Antior and Mrs. Turner to the police were to the effect that Brown, who lives directly above Mr. and Mrs. Rabenau, objected to the noise alleged to have been made by persons in the apartment.
A dispute followed, it was said, which culminated in the shooting of Antior by Brown as the three women looked on in horror.
Following the shooting, Brown ran from the apartment house and surrendered himself to Patrolman H. J. Watts, who took the young man to detective headquarters.

Between 41,000 and 42,000 people paid around $21,000 at the gates in the eight days and evenings of Second California Valencia Orange show which came to a glorious close last evening, it was announced today by Victor Loly, auditor. The number entering on passes is not yet known. Proceeds from space sold to exhibitors and concessions it is hoped will run better than $10,000.
The exact financial condition of the show will not be known for several days, until all the bills are in, Loly stated. However, he believes that all expenses will be met without molesting the guarantee fund.
But whether or not the show made a lot of money, it was universally decreed by the thousands who saw it a wonderful success, far exceeding last year's effort in size, number and attractiveness of exhibits and in point of attendance.
The various directors today were said without exception to favor continuation of the undertaking as an annual event.
S. A. KIWANIS CLUB BUILDS 2 CABINS
Twenty members of the Santa Ana Kiwanis club today erected two sleeping cabins in the auto camp grounds being developed by the Santa Ana C. of C.

The Rotary, Elks and So. Cal. Auto club have already each erected a cabin and the Lions club will also erect one.
MOVIES TO BOOST PLAYGROUND FUND
An opportunity for the public to assist in helping to buy the apparatus for the playgrounds at the Central school will be given Tuesday morning when the splendid film, "Daddy Long Legs," with Mary Pickford, will be given in the Grand theatre. The tickets have been placed at greatly reduced figures, and the hour of the showing, 10:30 a.m., is convenient for children as well as adults.
The West Coast Theatres, Inc., has donated the use of the Grand theatre and is doing all possible to cooperate with the Anaheim Parent-Teacher association under whose auspices the picture is shown. Children of the Central school will sell tickets now only, after which they will put on sale in a down-town place business. They will also be available at the box office of the Grand.
This is a venture of the M.F.A. ot equip the school playgrounds and if well patronized, other opportunities will be given to see excellent pictures as these greatly reduced prices.
