ORANGE COUNTY THE NATURAL SITE It would be a distinct loss to the walnut growers of Southern California should the pathological station now engaging the public attention be located in Riverside county. The station aims to treat of diseases of citrus and walnut trees, as well as of diseases of other trees and vegetables. Walnut growers have sustained serious losses by the blight and are entitled to the same protection from the state as the orange grower, no more, no less. Riverside produces not a carload of walnuts, yet it is and for sometime past has been an active aspirant for the location of this station in that county. It would be a mistake to locate it there. Orange county is the place for the laboratory. We grow a third of the walnuts produced in the state, here in Orange county. If the station is to give us relief from bill provided in effect than next general election super elected in the first and thirts should hold office two years, and that thereafter should hold office four years present supervisors of this are elected at the same time out of office coterminously; as the plan in other counties elect two at one election and at the next, so that all may out of office together. Mr. Armor tried to remedy this evil, and to be regretted he did not He will have to try again. Mr. Armor "chews a cloth" to the extent of a coat the Orange Post in defense tor Anderson, and ends w statement, "Now is the time in the claims of Orange co the pathological station, sooner these petty squabbl the better chance the cou have." Mr. Armor is a g all the same Anderson in down to Estudillo went as could to heave the station of Riverside county. With reference to the story by the esteemed Press of R to the effect that Assem Amerige promised Estudillo he would change his bill form to the Riversider's idea matter, it is proper to say Orange assemblyman emph load of walnuts, yet it is and for sometime past has been an active aspirant for the location of this station in that county. It would be a mistake to locate it there. Orange county is the place for the laboratory. We grow a third of the walnuts produced in the state, here in Orange county. If the station is to give us relief from diseases affecting the walnut tree, here is where it should be located, not at Riverside. Orange county produces 2000 carloads of celery—all the celery grown in the state of California. A disease has sprung up attacking these plants; the loss has been serious. If the station is to give celery growers relief, here is where it should be located; and not at Riverside. Orange county has under cultivation in season thousands of acres of tomatoes, Riverside not an acre. A disease has attacked the plants and has caused great losses to the growers. If the station is to give these farmers relief, it should be located here; and not at Riverside. These are disagreeable facts, but they are facts nevertheless. We live in a paradise on earth, here in Southern California; yet our orange orchards are attacked by half a dozen different varieties of scale; our walnut trees have a blight; celery and tomato plants are attacked by a foreign disease, and so on. Citrus growers have obtained great relief by the introduction of parasites which prey upon the scale; and in the time to come we believe the state board of agriculture, aided by wise legislation, will be enabled to introduce parasites for every scale that ever invaded the state from Florida, China, Polynesia or any other old place. We believe a remedy will be found for the walnut blight, and With reference to the study by the esteemed Press of Riverside to the effect that Assemmer Amerige promised Estudios he would change his bill form to the Riversider's idea matter, it is proper to say that Orange assemblyman emphasizes doing so. Amerige was drawn upon lines legal and eminently correct. Theological station should be lished in the most representative orange and walnut growing area. It will treat of the disease walnut as well as the orange and as Riverside grows no it would be a slap in the that industry to locate them in that county. Moreover, range growers have been given assistance by the state horticulture and the recent lature appropriated $10,000 an entomologist to the one search of parasites for purity other scale. The state horticulture has imported sites for the white and black and these parasites have millions of dollars to the industry. Walnut growers have no such consideration and has been done to ferret causes of the blight until the lature last month passed their bill. As we have said, it would be a mistake cate this station in a county produces no walnuts. This seems to us to be prepo Orange county is where theatory should be. Further, the statement Press that Riverside saw thatatory first is not supported facts of the case, inasmuch range county walnut grower the originators of the parasites which prey upon the scale; and in the time to come we believe the state board of agriculture, aided by wise legislation, will be enabled to introduce parasites for every scale that ever invaded the state from Florida, China, Polynesia or any other old place. We believe a remedy will be found for the walnut blight, and for the troubles now aggravating celery and tomato growers. It was with this end in view that the legislature passed the bill establishing the pathological laboratory, and it was with this end in view that Gov. Pardee signed the bill. If the laboratory is to conserve the wishes of its supporters and the governor, it should be located where these industries have reached the highest degree of productivity; here where we grow oranges as well as walnuts, celery, tomatoes, apricots, sugar beets and so on. Orange county should be selected as the county par excellence for the laboratory. Anaheim offers a free site, and tenders the commission several sites to select from; all spacious, roomy sites, free of cost. It invites the attention of the commission to these facts. Gov. Pardee has telegraphed Assemblyman Amerige that his bill affecting terms of Orange county supervisors is special legislation and therefore unconstitutional. The produces no walnuts. The seems to us to be prepo Orange county is where the atory should be. Further, the statement Press that Riverside saw that atory first is not supported facts of the case, inasmuch ange county walnut grower the originators of the These facts will all be clear before the commission who it is to select a proper location the laboratory. The fact that within a few two representatives of bank terests have looked over this borhood with a view to establish another financial institute this city points unerringly fact that the expansion of t and its increasing prosper begun to attract the atten moneyed interests in Los and elsewhere. Twice w month experts have declared city offers an ideal field for well-conducted bank. More score of local moneyed men be named who are ready to funds for equipping the ent This week a broker has town soliciting our citizens stock in a new bank, and i derstood has met with quit orable reception. He offers $25,000 of stock if a similar be subscribed by local mer ded in effect that at the general election supervisors of the first and third disould hold office for two and that thereafter all held office four years. At supervisors of this county did at the same time and go vice coterminously; where-wn in other counties is to that one election and three next, so that all may not go vice together. Mr. Amerige comedy this evil, and it is settled he did not succeed. have to try again. ARMOR "chews a piece of the extent of a column in the Post in defense of Senaerson, and ends with the "Now is the time to put aims of Orange county for biological station, and the these petty squabbles cease chance the county will Mr. Armor is a goat, but some Anderson in laying Estudillo went as far as he leave the station over into the county. reference to the statement deemed Press of Riverside effect that Assemblyman promised Estudillo that change his bill to cone Riversider's idea of the is proper to say that the assemblyman emphatically ing that he would prefer a larger amount taken here. One of the interested parties said yesterday he could raise $50,000 in a day. Why not go ahead on your own account, gentlemen of the city and surrounding section? You know the field is here, and the opening will not remain unfilled long. Another bank, manned by local capital, with competent men at its head, would be a winner. WINNING THE SOUTH. As a part of his plan of "winning the south," the president proposes to see to it that the southern states get their proportionate share of the civil service appointments. By his direction the civil service commission will this spring, summer and fall conduct examinations throughout the south and if the southern young men and women take advantage of the opportunity, many of them will go on the eligible lists and will be preferred to residents of the north when appointments are to be made. In the past the northern states have gobbled up most of the civil service appointments to the departments. Out of a total of 30,000 civil service employes in the several departments Alabama had only 196, Arkansas 117, Florida 86, Georgia 334, Louisiana 139, Mississippi 163, South Carolina 217 and Texas 277—a total of 1,529 em- In the past the northern states have gobbled up most of the civil service appointments to the departments. Out of a total of 30,000 civil service employes in the several departments Alabama had only 196, Arkansas 117, Florida 86, Georgia 334, Louisiana 139, Mississippi 163, South Carolina 217 and Texas 277—a total of 1,529 employees, who draw in salaries a total of $1,664,281 annually. Indiana, a typical northern state, about which several of its representatives has been protesting because the state is not getting its full share of the places, has more than 600 men and women in the classified service who draw annually about $800,000—nearly half as many places and half as much in salary as the eight southern states mentioned. If the younger generation of the south takes to the civil service examinations that are to be held and applicants make acceptable grades the northern states will have to wait for further merit system rewards until the southern states that are short of their proportionate share of the places are brought up to the line of averages. The civil service law says specifically that in making appointments the commission shall apportion the places among the several states according to population and the president intends to insist that the south shall receive that to which it is entitled. Joe Backs went to Los Angeles yesterday on business. Miss Augusta Gebhardt, niece of Mrs. Hussmann, arrived on Tuesday from Hamburg. County Treasurer Potter was over from the county seat yesterday on a brief business mission.
