NEW FRONT DUE

LOS ANGELES TO FACE WEST
INSTEAD OF EAST
Former Kansas Man Outlines Vast
Possibilities for City When the
Proposed Municipal Work
Is Completed

That the establishment of the mu-
nicipal harbor will make Los Angeles
Change front" in a decided fashion
by establishing the main gateway at
the waterfront instead of through the
eastern section by rail is agreed by
all men who are conversant with har-
Dor progress. They believe that, If
it is made possible for the great pas
senger traffic which will pass through
the Panama canal to come to Los
Angeles through a municipal harbor
the city's main gateway will be
made at Wilmington and San Pedro.
This idea was expressed at San
Pedro by j. w. Neale, who moved to
Los Angeles from Kansas a week ago,
after he had passed a day studying
the harbor situation.
"I feel as though 1 had come into
Los Angeles by the back door," said
Mr.. Neale, because / came in by rail
instead of by boat. After day at the
harbor, l have an entirely new idea
of the great possibilities in the growth
of Los Angeles. The harbor, if it is
rightly developed, will make a COM
pletely new Los Angeles, and now is
a good time for a new man to estab-
lish himself here. This can be made a
tremendous city but, until you go over
the harbor, you cannot realize why
and how this is inevitable.

ARCADE PLAN

Success of the Trial at Emporium at
San Francisco Is Quoted as
One Proof of Its
Value

1.-THE suggestion made in The Herald
this morning that the arcade plan for
widening the business streets be tried
out in single block is eminently prac-
tical," said Charles Farwell Edison,
president of the Gamut club, yester-
day. 1T certainly would assure the
extension of the idea, for, when once
seen, it will be wanted on every street
where there is necessity for wider
roadway.
IF the block in which the Broadway
department store is situated, for ex-
ample, were taken for this trial it
would not only show the advantage of
the plan, but / am sure it would re-
dound to the benefit of the business
men whose stores are located there'
The novelty would be a great adVer-
tisement in itself.

they are dried and warmed at the

and fed can stand a good deal of cold.
Another method that we have tried
successfully is to have a tub in the
pen and have a gallon jug full of hot
water in it, and as fast as the pigs
are dropped put them into the tub
and cover it over with an old horse
blanket. In an hour or two, or as

We planted these in rows about
thirty inches apart for conveniences
in ~cultivating. We worked the soil,
which was naturally rich, into very
good shape; as we had no seed drill
we drilled them in by hand and COW

The first cultivation vas tedious
with hoe and fingers but they grew
fast, and made a fine lot Of beets for
the small patch we had in. The sea-

only got half size; after two or three
sharp freezes we pulled them out and
"ricked" them up OF a naturally well
drained spot, covered with a layer OF
straw, then dirt; we opened one end
a few days back and they are in fine
shape. The horses and sows went for
them in grand style. We never tried

To Save the EARLY Pigs.

At least two points are important
In saving the early pigs that are
quite generally neglected. The first
is to keep the pigs from chilling i'm
mediately after birth. One method
which has been found effective on our
farm is to have a bushel basket by a
warm fire at the house and as the
pigs are born put them into a smaller
basket, cover them up warm and car
ry them to the basket at the fire. II
1t is in the night it means q whole
nights work. This is kept up until
the SOW is through narrowing. The
pigs are kept in the basket until they
are dry and warm through and
through, and ready for something to
eat. BY this time the sow will have
become quiet. Then they are carried
to their mother, and see that they
get something to eat. St it is a very
cold time the SOW should be in warm
and comfortable quarters, or else the
pigs will chill, no matter how well
