Mr. Husmann has been observing the growth of the Japanese persimmon for the last sixteen years and one of the trees in his yard at Chestnut and Lemon streets is sixteen years old. Last year fruit from this single tree sold for $31. The tree has been bearing since it was three years old, or for the past thirteen years. One of the great difficulties in starting a persimmon orchard would be in securing the initial trees, Mr. Husmann explained. They sell for $3 each and are extremely hard to get. The Husmann tree came direct from Japan. He is planting some seed and will bud the young trees from the parent stock. Mr. Sherwood, who lives on Chapman avenue, between Placentia and Pullerton, has five acres of Japanese persimmons. The fruit is ready for sale at about 15 cents a pound. A Japanese persimmon tree requires about the same care as an orange tree and is adopted to similar soils, showing a preference for the light sandy soil.

Many Things to Consider In the Purchase of Farm The wise selection of a farm is vital to the success and satisfaction of farm life. Choosing a farm often means choosing a place in which to live and work or a lifetime. It is important of course to decide wisely in buying for investment says the United States Department of Agriculture, but in making a selection for a home it is doubly important to consider various features that may have a decided bearing on the farm business or that may make the home life attractive. Home and Business Are Inseparable The home side of the question must always be kept in mind for the farm home and the farm business are inseparable. The desirable farm from a business standpoint many times is found undesirably if it has no social or community advantages. On the other hand desirable living conditions are of little or no advantage unless supplemented by a successful farm business. In selecting a farm it should be borne in mind that it requires a farm business of considerable size to provide an income that will merely cover maintenance charges, and that these charges are relatively larger for small farms than for large ones. A farm must be of such a size as to furnish most of the supplies needed in the farmer's living, such as garden and fruit, and enough income to pay the taxes and running expenses. Unless, however, there is a margin above these annual maintenance charges no progress can be made toward accumulating a surplus. Another feature which the farm seeker should see to is that prospects for crop yields are more than sufficient to balance the cost of production. Soils of low fertility are handicaps—some are found to be a positive liability if it is necessary to farm them. It is well to inquire thoroughly into crop yields, not only those that have been obtained on the farm itself or a period of years but those realized on adjacent farms. Learn whether poor crops are due to poor soil or to bad management. If yields are very high, inquire carefully as to how they are obtained and judged undesirable. Attention should be directed to the quality of the water, the question of whether the supply is dependable at all seasons of the year, and to the cost of obtaining it. The cost of upkeep and supply of water on a farm is often a big item. As an aid to persons about to buy farm land, the Department of Agriculture has published a Farmers' Bulletin 1088 entitled, "Selecting a Farm." Copies of the bulletin may be had free by addressing a request to the department at Washington, D.C. WASHINGTON, D. C.—The suicide of Col. Charles W. Whittlesey, leader of the famous "lost battalion," should serve as a "shocking reminder of how the poison of war leaves its trace in men's souls long after the fighting is ever," according to John Thomas Taylor, chairman of the legislative committee of the American Legion here. Taylor, who has been in close touch with the situation surrounding sick and wounded service men since the armistice, declares that thousands of men are in the same mental condition as was Col. Whittlesey, a condition credited with having caused his suicide. The gallant leader's untimely end, Mr. Taylor says, is a summons to the nation "to save its broken defenders before it is too late." Nearly 50,000 mildly insane veterans have passed through our hospitals since the armistice," the Legion official declares in a statement.

THE ANAHEIM DAILY HERALD Another feature which the farm seeker should see to is that prospects for crop yields are more than sufficient to balance the cost of production. Soils of low fertility are handicapped—some are found to be a positive liability if it is necessary to farm them. It is well to inquire thoroughly into crop yields, not only those that have been obtained on the farm itself or a period of years but those realized on adjacent farms. Learn whether poor crops are due to poor soil or to bad management. If yields are very high, inquire carefully as to how they are obtained and judge of the economy of the methods used. If the yields have been very low, it may be that better management or improved methods, which may be put into effect, will make possible the production of profitable crops; but before buying in such a case it is well to make sure that the land is capable of improvement. Equally essential to the success of the farm business is high quality of the live stock enterprise. To handle live stock so it will pay for feed, care, and labor is more than a mere matter of management, for it is dependent not only on cheap roughage, pasture, market, and securing labor at reasonable rates, but also on the quality of the animals kept. Crop land in itself is of little value unless it is so situated that it can be made to yield profitable returns through the use of labor and machinery. A farm of 160 acres, valued at $100 an acre, may be a much better purchase if practically all of the land can be put to some profitable use, than another farm of 160 acres, at $50 an acre, of which large areas are practically useless, owing to streams, and swamps that can not be drained, or rough stony tracts poorly suited even for pasture. Another factor is ease of cultivation. If the land is very steep or broken it is not practicable to use improved machinery and it is often difficult to harvest the crops and remove them from the land by the usual methods. This is particularly true in loading hay and grain on steep hills. Smaller loads have to be drawn than on level land, and it requires more time in loading. Such fields can be worked, of course, but the cost of producing crops on them is necessarily higher than on fields where labor and machinery can more efficiently used. The physical condition of the soil is important. Frequently, even on high grade farms, soils get into very poor condition through a few years of mismanagement, such as improper tillage or careless handling. It usually takes several years to correct such injury, many times resulting in loss of profit. Then, too, the matter of drainage should be looked into, first as to the natural drainage of the fields, and second to the possibility of draining them, if need be, artificially. The experienced farmer in selecting a farm generally looks first to the source and dependability of the water Nearly 50,000 mildly insane veterans have passed through our hospitals since the armistice," the Legion official declares in a statement. "Despite our efforts, the government has not yet built one good hospital for the care of these men nor established one good rehabilitation center for their cure. If a highly educated, well provided for veteran like Whittlesey surrenders, what may we not fear for the thousands of discouraged, broken-minded and often destitute men kicked around from pillar to post by their government?" More than one-third of the 30,000 disabled veterans now receiving treatment are mentally disabled, according to Mr. Taylor. Of these 10,000, almost 7,500 are scattered through the country in asylums for the criminal and pauper insane. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—Belief that Senator Tom Watson, Georgia, had "strayed into the wrong army" when making his charge before congress of alleged hangings in the A. E. F., has been expressed by "W. S., Scranton, Pa." in a letter to American Legion national headquarters here. "W. S." details the only casualty in his "outfit" other than those inflicted by the Boches. "A corporal swallowed some coffee which a dizzy K. P. had held a lantern over, letting a couple of drops of kerosene fall into it. The corporal didn't feel like eating for a week and washed his mouth out with commissary soap." In further declaration of the "sad lack of hangings, drawings, quarterings and draggings down hill in nail-lined barrels by horses going four different ways," the author hates to admit that "of all the men who went to war from my town, not one of them was shot at sunrise or any other time for wearing boots at revelille." Of the eight men in his squad, "W. S." declares that seven escaped the war unhanged. "The eighth rests in an honorable grave on the slope below the village of Romange. He died of a machine gun wound in the face of the enemy—not. Senator Watson, of a taut rope in the presence of a lot of gawking lieutenant colonels (I don't suppose they'd let the privates in on a thing like that). "But there's one thing they would have let us in on. They might not have let us see all the company punishment executions Senator Watson tells about, but don't you suppose the underground wireless of soldier would have spread the news around?"
