URGES NEW HEADQUARTERS
FOR FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

New headquarters for the fire alarm
system of the city, preferably in the
new engine house to be constructed at
Figueroa and Seventh street, is urged
bv f. V. Owen a member of the fire
commission, in a report he will make to
the commission this morning. Mr..
owen was appointed a special COM
mittee of the commission to investi-
gate the alarm system.
One of the important features of the
report is that the Cregier system will
work well with the Gamewell system
so that the city can purchase the Gre
gier boxes, which are much cheaper
than the GameWell boxes, with the as
surance that the two systems can be
made to operate together.

CARPENTER FALLS 80 FEET,
TURNS SOMERSAULT IN AIR
Man Escapes Serious Injury by
Landing on Feet

Tripping over a projecting board on
the second floor of a building in course
Of construction in First street, near
Santa Fe avenue, Frank Anderson, "a
years old, a carpenter, living at 1109
Ditman street, lost his balance and
plunged head foremost through an
opening to the basement, thirty feet
below. He suffered numerous abrasions
and contusions on his face, bruised
right thigh and left ankle and a
sprained left wrist. His escape from
being seriously injured probably is due
to the fact that he turned complete
comersault and landed on his feet.
Despite the fact that he was Jared
considerably by mis- fall and that he
was painfully hurt, Anderson did not
lose consciousness and was able to
make his way to the receiving hospi-
tai with the assistance OF a friend.
After his injuries were dressed Ander-
son was sent to his home.

MARSHAL OF CITY OF
WATTS is ACQUITTED

j. B. Traughber, city marshal of
Watts, stood trial before Justice
Summerfield yesterday afternoon on a
charge of disturbing the peace of j..
b. Holley an attorney of Watts, and
was found not guilty.
1t appears that Holley defended a
Watts barber, who had been arrested
by the city marshal and that during
the trial of the tonsorial artist, the
attorney and officer exchanged worEs.
The attorney then secured the arrest
of the officer. AS no evidence was
brought out yesterday to show that
the officer had violated the law, he
was found not guilty.

ASKS PETITION TO OPEN
FIFTH STREET BE DENIED

The petition of Mines & Parish to
open and widen Fifth street from
Olive to Figueroa did not meet with
the approval of the board of public
works yesterday and the board will
ask the council to deny it.
City Engineer Hamlin pointed out
that the expense of opening the street
through the State Normal school
grounds would be very heavy, espe-
cially as the state cannot be made
to pay it's share of the cost of the i'm
provement. The grade also would be
steep, said Mr.. Hamlin, and it did
not appeal to him as good engineer

EXCELLENT TRADE IN WESTERN
CANADA.
Splendid Crops. Big Prices, and
Prosperous Outlook for the Flu

Splendid Crops. Big Prices, and
rure.
Throughout all of Canada, and es-
pecially in the western provinces of
Canada, there is a buoyancy in every
line OF business that is fully warrant
ed by every condition. The crops of
the past year were what was expected,
and the prices for grain of all kinds
put the farmers in a class by them
selves. Many of them are independ
ent. and many others have got well
started on the road. The latest reports
are that seeding is we'll under way in
almost every district, and the pros
poets are that a vastly larger area than
that under crop last year will be seed
ed early this spring. In the Leth-
bridge district, in Southern Alberta,
steam and gasoline outfits, hundreds or
them, are breaking up the prairie at
a tremendous pace, but they work
night and day As soon as it becomes
dark gangs are changed, head light
attached, and on, on through the night
until the first streak of dawn, these
giant monsters with their seven or
eight gangs of breaking plows, keep up
the work. Then the more modest farm
er is putting in the longest hours pos
sible with his teams of horses or oxen.
And what will the country be like in
August, when these fields have become
yellowed with the literally golden
grain. There will be one vast eXpanse
Of wheat field And there will be a
market for It, because 1t IS the best
grain grown, and the demand Will be
everywhere. AS previously animated,
business throughout Western Canada
is cound and good. The grain produc'
ton OF 1909 has been the great factor
in establishing the reputation of West
ern Canada, and it is worth talking
about 1t surpassed all previous rec
| ords, both in regard to quality ana
| quantity, and such an achievement
was by no means easy. The limit has
not been reached, and a large average
| increase may be expected during the
next ten years There viii be odd sea
sons when a falling off will occur and
| it is the falling off that causes alarms
and Danics in the commercial world
The plains have done their duty so faI
/ in the output Of grain and it would be
reasonable to make occasional allow
ances for slowing up. The faster the
rate of increase is now, the sharper
will be the check when the production
! diminishes. But there are some un
reasonable people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
! during the next, and at an even faster
/ rate. These same unreasonable people
are the ones who see flaws i'll the sit
