"I believe the value of every acre of walnut land in Southern California is increased $150 by this action. The move marks the greatest stride forward taken by the growers in the history of the industry. While the nation's chief executive was being inaugurated at Washington March 4th, the assembled walnut-growers were inaugurating a new selling policy which will redound to untold good of the entire walnut district." Delegates from twelve associations and a number of outside growers assembled at the chamber of commerce in Los Angeles on Thursday and organized a new association for selling the walnut crop upon different lines than have characterized the disposal of the crop in the past. As one grower pertinently expresses it, the brokers in the past "got all the chicken while the growers got the feathers." This will all be changed in the sale of the coming season's crop. The new association will act as selling agent for the growers, and will sell to brokers for spot cash at prices agreed upon by the growers. It is too late to put agents of the growers in eastern market centers this year, but this course will probably be adopted next year, and the brokers entirely eliminated. There will be no more fixing of prices to hold good until a certain date, and as many of the outsiders are coming into the fold, there will probably be no price cutting and no slumps in the market as characterized the past season. Owing to faulty methods of marketing the past season, Southern California walnut growers in the association lost $135,000 by tottering markets, and outside growers lost $80,000. The slump did not affect the associated growers alone; outsiders were hit with almost equal force, although the bulk of the crop was handled by the associations. The crop of Southern California walnuts last year aggregated 900 cars, of which 700 were in the association and 200 out. The associated growers met with the brokers in the fall and fixed prices at 12½ cents, for first-class softshells. These prices, by some sort of thimble-rigging on the part of the middle-men were to hold good until the first of the year. In other words, growers obligated themselves not to cut this price before January 1st, even though outsiders were quoting nuts at a lower rate. When the new year dawned, the associated growers found themselves with 225 cars on hand, and prices were out of 11 cents.

MELROSE BILL PASS Will Open Newport Bay to County Hunters Another blow at the state serve in Orange county was this week when the Assembly Melrose bill which is opposed Leeds bill and will permit nine and anglers to hunt and fish technically all the waters of New York and for a considerable distance the mouth of the Santa Ana River. This will carry the war into Africa, for the game preserve which loud protest has been composed, to a large extent, of the bay. As a prelude to the bill passed Melrose secured the passage of a measure declaring naval waters in and around New York taking in enough of the army bay to cut into the game present through the bill, to give them a chance to enjoy man-made preservation are lavished almost entirely by others of the exclusive gun club. There is a lurking suspicion boat will not be required in this nation of some of the waters that clared navigable in the Mellrose It is believed that a hunter can ociation and 200 out. The associated growers met with the brokers in the fall and fixed prices at 12½ cents, for first-class softshells. These prices, by some sort of thimble-rigging on the part of the middle-men were to hold good until the first of the year. In other words, growers obligated themselves not to cut this price before January 1st, even though outsiders were quoting nuts at a lower rate. When the new year dawned, the associated growers found themselves with 225 cars on hand, and prices were cut to 9½ cents. The loss amounted to $135,000. The total price of the past year's crop amounted to $1,750,000. Outside growers had sold their crop at 10½ cents, receiving $420,000, or $80,000 less had they stood for the original association price. A community of interest soon brought these growers to a realization of the fact that it was best for them to be within the fold, and steps were at once taken to embrace them in the association. Orange and San Juan, which were always outlanders, came into the association, bringing in 60 cars, and numerous other outside growers have signed up for the new association. It is believed the associated growers will next season control not less than 90 per cent of the crop, and they may exceed even these figures. Among Orange county growers attending the meeting were J. B. Neff and Sherman Hayden of this city, Samuel Kraemer of Placentia, B. Frank Porter of Orangethorpe and Judge Stutsman of Tustin. Mr. Phelps of Los Angeles appeared for the Golden Belt association of Fullerton. The meeting was unanimous for the new system of marketing, which spells the final elimination of the broker.

THE DIET THE THING Up-Coast Man to Reform Criminals by Feeding Them Fruit and Nuts Tacoma, March 8.—A diet of fruit, nuts and cold water as a substitute for reformatories and jails for criminally inclined youth is a new department advocated by humane officer William Van Vooris of this city, who encouraged by the results he has obtained in treating boys turned over to his charge, has begun a movement to secure a permanent home for waifs and unfortunates placed under his charge. Van Vooris not only preaches but practices his doctrine. For three years he has confined himself strictly to a diet of fruit and nuts. He declares that the people of this country have a big contract in getting rid of gluttony: "We are the best fed and the poorest nourished nation on earth," he says. In order that he may demonstrate the value of his ideas concerning the connection between crime and diet a tract of ten acres will be secured on Vashon island in the sound where a home will be erected and the boys and men of criminal tendencies will be given a chance to get close to nature and in the proper environment have the benefits of a strictly fruittarian diet. Jake Schumacher is the new impresario at the opera house, which is now undergoing repairs, as noted elsewhere, to the extent of $3000. Jake has booked a number of first-class attractions for this spring and summer, and will try to give patrons of this popular playhouse their money’s worth.
