Comparative Statement of Cost of Up

String of Notable Vic
tories in 1909

Indicative of the rapid advance being
made in the quality of automobile tires
is the long string of notable victories
won in 1909 by cars equipped with Dia-
mOnd tires manufactured i'm Akron, o.,
by the Diamond Rubber company.
The Diamond record especially shows
the progress that has been made in re-
ducing the upkeep cost. The national
Upkeep competition was one of the
most important victories scored by Dia-

GRANGER IS REFUSED NEW
TRIAL BY JUDGE BLEDS0E
Ruling Is That Legal Number Were
Sitting in Local Courts When
Damages Were Granted

Judge Bledsoe of San Bernardino,
sitting in Judge Hervey's department
of the superior court yesterday, re-
fused to grant new trial in the suit
of Isaac Granger against II. A. Cole,
in which judgment was awarded sew
eral weeks ago in favor of the plain
tiff. who demanded damages on ac-
count of personal injuries.
The application for a new trial was
made on the ground that thirteen
Judges were sitting when the case
was heard. or one more than the num-
Der provided by sthe constitution.
Judge Bledsoe, in refusing the appli-
cation, stated the judge Of department
seven was sitting in Judge Wilburs
court at the request OF the latter anu
that Judge Wilbur, investigating a
Juvenile matter. in chambers, could not
be regarded as performing his regular
duties as a Judge on the bench.

FUNDS SOUGHT FOR
MUNICIPAL FARM
LEAGUE OF JUSTICE FURTHER
ING PROJECT
Proposed to Convert 1900 Acres in
the San Fernando Valley Into
SeIf=Supporting
Institution

One of the first financial demands to
be made on the new council Will prob
ably be for $1,000 to cover the expenses
OF the preliminary work on the new
municipal farm, which the League of
Justice is planning. Mrs. J. b.. Lippin-
colt is chairman of the committee that
has this matter in charge, and Rev.
Dana Bartlett is associated with her
and deeply interested in the project.
The plan is to convert the Pomeroy &
Hooker tract of 1900 acres in the San
Fernando valley, which the city owns
in connection with its water rights, into
a farm on which offenders against the
municipal laws can be employed
1t is planned to raise vegetables and
eucalyptus, the vegetables to be used at
the city Jail and other institutions
where food must be provided, and the
eucalyptus to be converted into cash
and turned into the city treasury.
man sentenced for drunkenness or
other light offenses is to be sent to this
municipal farm instead of to the work
house, and he will work out his fine at
the rate of 81 a day. Further elabora-
ton of the scheme cOntemplates paying
his family 90 cents daily while the
bread winner is under the city's care.
There is one difficulty in the way of
the plan. Judge Chambers has held
that a convicted man cannot be sent
outside the city limits, for if he should
run away from the farm he would be
outside the city's jurisdiction.
Annexation Movement
To make the scheme effective, it is
considered necessary to annex East
Hollywood, and then the municipal
farm, as the farm adjoins East Holly
wood. There is strong opposition to the
annexation Of East Hollywood, and it
may be necessary to wait action by the
state legislature to perfect the farm
plans
As soon as it is established that the
farm will become a reality, it is hoped
to secure the services Of j. b. Vining
assistant superintendent of Tom John
sons farm in Cleveland, to take charge
of the matter The Cleveland farm has
proved such a success that it has in
spired those interested in the venture
locally to harder work

Remedy for Sunburn.

AS cosmetic it is used as a substi-
tute for water or in conjunction, as
one chooses. Accordingly, as it is an
adjunct or a substitute the method of
using differs little. When water is
not used the milk is put on freely, wet
ting soft old cloth and sopping the
face, neck and chest thoroughly. No
soap is required.
This is at once washed off in warm
water, to which about teaspoonful Of
bOraX is added to basinful of water.
Fresh buttermilk is then patted on with
the fingers, letting it dry.
When employed as an adjunct the
first cleansing must be done with soap
and water, the skin being dried ami
buttermilk patted on later and allowed
to remain.
The odor of buttcrmilk is not pleas
ant and in that lies the undesirable
feature of its use. Nevertheless, as a
bleaching and refining agent it is most
valuable.
In case of sunburn or freckles the
milk should be put on at the earliest
opportunity. letting it dry into the skin
Water must not be applied at any time
while there is a singing or smarting
sensation.
