Sour bread is caused by poor yeast or an excessive

the use of adulterated, impure, or improperly
pounded baking powder. Both are unwholesome pro-
ducing intestinal arrangements, indigestion ETC.

This sourness of food and the bitter taste attending

Price and others is aduterated from five to twenty per

and hence unable to mix it with the akal soda

EloOds.

EDITOR IIERALD:-At this season of the
year there Is always a plentiful crop of
hydraulic engineers in our goodly city
ready to give their advice as to the proper
method of preventing the river from over
flowing. Hence the writer may be per
mltted to give expression to his Views on
the subject. ] shall take as my text preg
nant passage from De Button, an acknowl-
edged French authority, eulled from the
advance sheets of the forthcoming admira-
BILE report OF the State Engineer OF Califor-
MIA. DE Button says. Water, has on ripa-
"rlan properties, natural primordial right
TO sufficient and proper channel IN which
40 pass. River waters are then
from time immemorlal in possession of
canals carved out of the surface of the
earth, in dimensions proportional to the
"quantity OF the How to be carried. This Is
possession on the part of the State. The
existence of these canals, as old as the
world, Is Il title In the State, inscribed In
"the ground by the hand Of God for the
Common good. Consequently 1t Is sound
have the right, and that it
should be Its duty to have them
respected and not tempered with
" by every dweller on their banks"
Now the river Los Angeles possessed such
channel, there was abundant land for set
Element and Improvement on all sides with
out Infringing upon this channel. But the
greed for cheap land has caused numerous
persons to encroach upon the natural water
way, and needless of the warnings written
by the finger Of time upon the ground, heed
less Of the advice OF all inhabitants as to
the natural consequences of their acts, they
have INSTRUCTED the river bed by planta-
lions, by filth, by so called improvements,
and now they call upon those who have
built upon the high land to prstect them
from the consequences of this folly. This Is
neither just nor sensible.
The true way to hinder floods in our river
IL to clear out and keep clear n sufficient
outlet for the freshet waters. 1t would he
cheaper to condemn and pay for the proper
ties claiming protection and declare them
forever u part of the water way, keep them
free from all obstruction to the How Of wa
ter than to attempt TO protect them.
