THUMBS UP FOR ROAD BONDS EVERYTHING THE COLOR OF THE ROSE AT SANTA ANA MEETING Boosters Come from Los Angeles and Riverside to Help Push Work Along—Committee Appointed to Interview Supervisors About Personnel of Commission—Election Next Spring Everybody was for bonds at the Santa Ana meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce on Wednesday evening last, and under the magic spell of a sumptuous feed at one of the county-seat hotels everybody declared he would never be satisfied until he had had a chance to vote bonds for roads from one end of the county to the other. There was nothing to indicate that the county seat wanted to grab all the roads for itself—in fact, the roads could be built anywhere, so far as that town was concerned, just so bonds were voted. A delegation of boosters came from Los Angeles and Riverside to help the good work along. Among them was a brother of the recently deposed Mayor Harper, who is a shouter for bonds from away back. A Fullerton delegate said that town stood 10 to 1 against bonds as at present constituted, but if it could reduce its municipal limits, it might stand 10 to 1 for bonds. One hundred and thirty-five guests were at table, and the subject of good roads was saved until after the other business of the evening was transacted, some of which was very important. Of chief importance aside from the roads discussion was the stand taken by the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county on the mission had not provided all the right of way. "I am surprised," he is quoted by the Santa Ana Register as observing, "that this county—the richest though the smallest—should hesitate because of a crop. I represent 290 acres at Placentia. I pledge you my support." "If you don’t have good roads the tourists will not go over your county. The bonds distributed over forty years will hardly be noticed. If you have a department store anywhere that does not advertise, it might as well close. So with a county. So put in good roads to advertise your county." F. M. West of Fullerton asked if the commission was subject to the supervisors. Mesmer replied that the commission forms the plans and the supervisors do the rest. "For commissioners select men not seeking to be led at the public crib. When you find a man working for your county for nothing don’t forget him in a time like this." In reply to a question by L. H. Wallace, Dr. Richman said that no one could tell how long it would take Fullerton to cut down her territory, but he thought it ought to be done in six months, if at all. Wallace stated that his petitions had gone in under the condition that the commissioners be named before the petition is filed. Rev. E. J. Harper, city forester of Los Angeles, delivered a stirring address. He said: "Good roads are the best evidences of civilization, and that community that lets any pressure stand between it and building good roads stands in its own light, and keeps back that which will advance it. "The city of Los Angeles does not get a foot of road from the $3,500,000 bond issue, but she must pay seventy per cent of the tax. Orange county" Col. O. H.

Of chief importance aside from the roads discussion was the stand taken by the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county on the spreading of Santa Ana river waters. This stand backs up the position taken by the Orange county members of the Water Conservation Association, insisting that the river flow be not interfered with unless the flow is to Santa Ana. In introducing the good roads subject, Dr. Dobson said that the petitions so far brought in contained 501 names. Others are still out. About 600 names are needed. He said the petitions could be ready in short order to go to the supervisors. "We must have commissioners who are above reproach," said he. He read a letter from the Department of Agriculture promising an engineer to supervise the building of a half-mile to a mile of object lesson road. He thought arrangements could be made to have the expert stay through the work. Dr. Richman of Fullerton said: "We have conditions at Fullerton that must be met. The city is six miles long. Under the law, these good roads cannot be built inside an incorporated city, unless the city pays for it. We would like to cut off a large territory from the city, so the roads could approach closer, but it will take time to educate the people up to voting for the slicing-off. As the matter stands now, we would get no benefit of the bond issue. We would not get one vote in ten for the bonds. Also some of the Valencia orange-growers are not getting much for their oranges, and they would like to see this matter deferred." Dobson—"How long would it take Fullerton to prune?"? Richman—"I can't say." Dobson thought Fullerton ought to go ahead with its work, and inasmuch as it would take some time for the Good Roads election to be called,the slicing off might be accomplished without delay to the bonds. Attorney Head said he did not believe the election on good roads could be held within six months anyhow. It would Rev. E. J. Harper, city forester of Los Angeles, delivered a stirring address. He said: "Good roads are the best evidences of civilization, and that community that lets any pressure stand between it and building good roads stands in its own light, and keeps back that which will advance it. "The city of Los Angeles does not get a foot of road from the $3,500,000 bond issue, but she must pay seventy per cent of the tax. Orange county will be benefited by these good roads. In this campaign reach every voter in a hand to hand contest. We want to see you get good roads. "The time has come when you must put more brains into your development that you may keep pace with beautiful Southern California. There is no other Southern California. Even Italy cannot boast such skies as ours. It is a land of beauty, the fundamental desire being to produce a fine body of men and women. You have begun to work for a harbor, and the time is coming when you will get it. The eyes of the world are turned this way. "When you get your good roads, don't forget to plant along the side of them the tree. "In closing let me say that the nation, county or community that lives for itself alone deserves to fail." The Los Angeles Federation members thanked the hosts for the hospitality, and retired that they might take the 11 o'clock car to Los Angeles. Chairman Wilson introduced W. B. Clancy, chairman of the Good Roads committee of the Riverside chamber of commerce. "We want you to allow us to cooperate with you," said he. "We would like to see Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside counties proceed with this work together, and have the election the same day. The result in any of the three counties would not affect the result in the others. "We are going after good roads, and we would like to have good roads down here so we can get here easily for summer vacations." Mr. Clancy explained that recently Riverside had cut off a portion of her city, having had the same trouble Fullerton has. The next meeting of the Associated Chambers will be held at Anaheim on October 27th. L. H. Wallace read a letter from Gen.

Dobson thought Fullerton ought to go ahead with its work, and inasmuch as it would take some time for the Good Roads election to be called, the slicing off might be accomplished without delay to the bonds. Attorney Head said he did not believe the election on good roads could be held within six months anyhow. It would take three months for the commissioners to prepare a report. Later several men said that work could not be done in six months. John T. Pope of Garvanza was called on to explain how the law worked in Los Angeles. "We never would have had a bond issue in Los Angeles," said he, "if we had waited for conditions all over the county to be just right. Before the election the voters must be informed of every bit of work proposed to be done, every yard to a dot; a 16-foot ballasted road in the center with 7-feet approaches on each side. If the bonds fail the county must pay for the preliminary work. "There is provision made that a municipality may carry the work on through after the county has reached the edge of the city. "Your commission must be men of integrity. Make a start. You may not be able to meet all the conditions, but look at the whole county's good, and every man put his shoulder to the wheel." Joseph Mesmer, who helped frame the Good Roads law, said that it was not all it should be, as it does not center everything on the commission. The commission, said he, should be as it is in San Diego, men above suspicion. After voting $3,500,000 bonds, Los Angeles county found that the com- "We are going after good roads, and we would like to have good roads down here so we can get here easily for summer vacations." Mr. Clancy explained that recently Riverside had cut off a portion of her city, having had the same trouble Fullerton has. The next meeting of the Associated Chambers will be held at Anaheim on October 27th. L. H. Wallace read a letter from Gen. Stone of the state fish commission to the effect that the Irvine Co. would be instructed to fence or stake all of the upper bay covered in its patents, that the deputies would be instructed that hunting would be allowed on that portion of the bay covered at low tides. Wallace said that that took about one-third of the former reserve claim. Other business before the meeting besides good roads was as follows: In the absence of Carl Jorn of Orange, secretary, L. H. Wallace of Newport Beach was appointed secretary pro tem. Roll call showed every delegation present except Orange. Further time was given the advertising committee to make a report. Handsome Harold Moore, representing the Santa Fe, said that Orange county needs good roads "and certainly is able to support them." His business that night was made plain in his talk. The Santa Fe wants to run a car through the East with a lecturer and views to advertise California. The cost will be $800 to $1,000 per month. The railroads will pay half if the civic bodies from Stockton south will pay the other half. Orange county was asked for $50 per month for six months. The matter was referred to the advertising committee with a request to devise ways and means if the project meets its approval. will face this risk when bird destruction an even more crop-killing insects declare their hopes for the conservation sources of the new summer school of every region reach the greatest American citizens. extensive circulational pamper use of wild birds one of the chief new national in the National Audubon Societies at presenting of all will be published very school.

ANAHEIM; GAZETTE GOOD ROADS FOR PROGRESS VIEWS OF REPRESENTATIVE SULZER OF NEW YORK Difference Between Good Roads and Bad Roads Difference Between Profit and Loss—Good Roads Mean Prosperity, Bad Roads Abandoned Farms, Sparsely Settled Districts The Gazette cheerfully complies with a request to publish the following speech of Congressman Sulzer of New York on Good Roads. Although he did not advocate the use of convict labor in road construction, in a recent speech in Congress, he must have had that in mind, for it was during a discussion of a bill to revise and amend the penal laws of the United States that he said: "My purpose in taking the floor at this time is to say a few words on a topic of much moment—good roads. I am now, always have been, and always expect to be in favor of good road building. There is no subject at the present time of more importance to all the people than the proposition to construct good roads by governmental aid along economic and constitutional lines. The plain people of the land are familiar with the truths of history. They know the past. They realize that often the difference between good roads and bad roads is the difference between profit and loss. Good roads have a money value far beyond our ordinary conception. Bad roads constitute our greatest drawback to internal development and material progress. Good roads mean prosperous farmers; bad roads mean abandoned farms, sparsely settled country districts, and congested populated cities, where the poor are desirous of life are less dependent than the millions and millions of people who live in our cities. The very lives of the latter depend on the farmers—the producers of the necessaries of life. The most superficial investigation of this subject will clearly prove that good roads are more important to consumers than they are to the producers of the country. But the burdens of life fall thickest and hardest on the farmer; and he gets less for the taxes he pays than any other class of people in the land. The least the government can do for him is to help him get decent highways. I am with the farmers in this fight for good roads. I am with the rural districts of our land in their struggle for better transportation facilities, and in Congress, or out of Congress, I shall do all in my power to hasten the consummation they desire—the ability to go and to come along good roads without exhausting the time and the effort and the utility of man and beast. The fathers of the Republic wisely recognized the importance of this question. Washington and Jefferson advocated good roads and projected the construction of a great highway from the capital to the Mississippi Valley. The far-seeing statesmen of the early days of our national existence championed and passed measures to better the means of transportation. They knew that of all human agencies the one which has done most for civilization has been the building of good roads—the abridgement of distance, the shortening of time—in the facilities of communication. They realized the necessity of good roads, how important they were to the country, to its growth and development; and to mankind, morally, physically, intellectually, and industrially, and binding together all sorts and conditions of people in the brotherhood of... BIRD LIFE AND CROPS Destruction of Insect Pests an Important Problem [Correspondence of The Gazette.] To save the natural wealth of America by educating its people regarding the value of wild bird life, as the only sure check to the insect pests that are rapidly devastating the crops and woods of the county, is the object of a movement which is engaging the attention of farmers and others throughout the nation. Headed by the National Association of Audubon Societies, a campaign is to be begun in every section of the continent which it is intended shall result in the establishment of a national university devoted to the conservation of American resources through the preservation of the pest-killing birds. Suitable endowment for an educational institution of such vital economic importance is to be at once sought by officers of the association. To greatly extend the educational work that is now being pushed with all the funds at the command of the Audubon workers is designed to be the main aim of the proposed national university. Skilled ornithologists are to be employed in investigating, compiling and analyzing scientific data showing the capacity of various species of wild birds for destroying such pests as the Gypsy Moth, the Boll Weevil and the Brown Tail Moth, whose ravages have been proven to cost the country one billion dollars in its crop yield each year. Men and women lecturers, trained at the proposed university, will be stationed in every section of the continent to present to the people proofs of their enormous loss in agricultural wealth due solely to lack of knowledge of the work done by the feathered insect-eaters, that nature intended to check crop plagues. On the children of the land, who will face this most pressing problem when bird destruction has brought on an even more appalling spread of crop-killing insects, the Audubon officials declare they must base their hopes for the spread of the gospel of conservation through the bird resources of the nation. Trained teachers are to be assigned to conduct summer schools among the teachers of every region and through them to reach the great body of future American citizens. The preparation and They know the past. They realize that often the difference between good roads and bad roads is the difference between profit and loss. Good roads have a money value far beyond our ordinary conception. Bad roads constitute our greatest drawback to internal development and material progress. Good roads mean prosperous farmers; bad roads mean abandoned farms, sparsely settled country districts, and congested populated cities, where the poor are destined to become poorer. Good roads mean more cultivated farms and cheaper food products for the tollers in the towns; bad roads mean poor transportation, lack of communication, high prices for the necessaries of life, the loss of untold millions of wealth, and idle workmen seeking employment. Good roads will help those who cultivate the soil and feed the multitude, and whatever aids the producers of our country will increase our wealth and our greatness and benefit all the people. We can not destroy our farms without final decay. They are today the heart of our national life and the chief source of our material greatness. Tear down every edifice in our cities and labor will rebuild them, but abandon the farms and our cities will disappear forever. Now, Mr. Chairman, I want to say again that I take an abiding interest in this all-absorbing question for better highways by some plan of governmental assistance. I know it can be done honestly, economically, and constitutionally. I am not committed to any pet scheme. I have no vanity in the matter. I care not who gets the glory so long as the people get the results. I am for the cause, and in the fight to stay Good roads mean progress and prosperity, a benefit to the people who live in the cities, an advantage to the people who live in the country, and it will help every section of our vast domain. Good roads, like good streets, make habitation along them most desirable; they enhance the value of farm lands, facilitate transportation and add untold wealth to the producers and consumers of the country; they are the milestones marking the advance of civilization; they economize time, give labor a lift, and make millions in money; they save wear and tear and worry and waste; they beautify the country, bring it in touch with the city; they aid the social and the re- The farsighted wisdom of Julius Caesar built from the imperial exchequer the magnificent roads that led in all directions to eternal Rome. The great Napoleon—Caesar like—built the roads of France that center in Paris from the general fund of the government; and these French roads have done more than any other single agency to encourage the thrift and increase the industry and insure the contentment of the people of France. Caesar and Napoleon were the great road builders of ancient and modern times, and their fore sight and their judgment demonstrated the beneficient results that follow like the night, the day, the building of great governmental highways. THE BONDS, AND A SQUARE DEAL Newport News The Anaheim Gazette objects to the voting of good roads bonds because it is afraid the northern part of the county will not get its share or more than its share of the money expended. The bonds will not be voted unless the people have assurance that the money will be spent impartially in building the roads where they are needed in the county and there are plenty of men in the county that can be induced to serve on the advisory board that will see that no part of the county is given the advantage. SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE Fruit-Grower Pays Compliment for Successful Tuition "If I had known when I began fruit growing what I learned this morning, it would have meant many thousands of dollars more in my pocket," said an experienced fruit-grower as he will face this most pressing problem when bird destruction has brought on an even more appalling spread of crop-killing insects, the Audubon officials declare they must base their hopes for the spread of the gospel of conservation through the bird resources of the nation. Trained teachers are to be assigned to conduct summer schools among the teachers of every region and through them to reach the great body of future American citizens. The preparation and extensive circulation of illustrated educational pamphlets on the economic use of wild bird life is designed to be one of the chief activities of the new national institution, as it is of the National Association of Audubon Societies at present. Text books treating of all the local wild birds will be published and issued to every school. "Nothing but the education of the American people on the value of the wild birds as crop and forest preservers can now avail to ward off the impending agricultural devastation of this land," said William Dutcher, president of the National Association of Audubon Societies, at its headquarters, 141 Broadway, New York. "If some one or more persons of wealth desire to bestow upon their country the greatest possible benefaction, now and for all time, no better way could be devised than to endow such a national university on conservation through bird life as we have projected. We shall exert our best efforts to procure this extension of the educational work that we have been pushing for years."

This is but one of the many testimonials given by these farmers who attended those courses. During October and November next better opportunities for gathering valuable facts and experience will be offered in the second series of Short Courses. They begin October 4th and continue until November 24th. Some are two weeks in length, some three, and one eight, the latter being for creamery operators. There is something for everybody, no matter what his or her special line of farming or stock raising. Irrigation for those who irrigate; cereal and sugar beet culture for those who grow these crops; handling milk and cream for the dairy farmer; poultry husbandry for those many engaged in that business nature; study of the breeds of livestock stock, their handling and care and treatment for the livestock management growing fruits and vines and treating insectics and diseases for the homoticulturist; and field and forage crops for the general farmer. Circular No. 45, just issued by The Agricultural College gives interesting details all out them all.
