FRYING-PAN-TO FIRE Allan Knapp Has Some Pertinent Observations to Make on Investment Company Editor Gazette: Home Investment Co. of Anaheim, plus Orange County Investment Co., plus S-o-m-e-t-h-i-n-g. The Home Investment Co. of Anaheim, Calif., was organized in Los Angeles, Calif., in 1909, with Anaheim as its principal place of business. The board of directors consisted of five in number, all of Los Angeles except E. L. Olmstead of Anaheim, who was elected president and manager of the concern. I suppose the board, as individuals, each subscribed for $10 worth of stock to meet the conditions of law, or I share of the capital stock of the corporation, which corporation was capitalized in $250,000, shares $10 par value. The president evidently had some property building lots on the west side of Anaheim, which he wished to dispose of, so to be real kind the board of directors voted Mr. Olmstead 11,500 shares of stock of the corporation for said piece of property, and at that time was probably worth $5000 at the very outside figure, therefore paying for his stock a fraction over four cents, or exchanging his property of $5000 for $115,000 stock in the company. The company was doing well. It now had a few building lots which were paid for, and the president was much gratified with this advancement, so started out to do business. He had a pleasing little story to tell his friends and neighbors, of which you are all familiar. Everybody was coming in on the same basis; it was a home company, and would do so much for Anaheim and community; a lumber yard would be operated in connection with the company, and all stockholders would have the privilege of purchasing any lumber they desired at a discount. In short, he went all over this country deceiving people, and asking would be better. But on the contrary, a complete failure. A few days ago something new developed. Some wish to sell the Orange County Investment Co. to a Los Angeles concern. Will it mend matters any? Who can tell? We have been going from bad to worse right along. I know nothing of the company who wish to buy, but have any of the stockholders investigated the company? You may be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. You know the more you homebug people the more they like you; it is being proven in this connection. All that I want is, that Mr. Olmstead comes in on the same basis as other stockholders. Then I am satisfied to sell to anybody that will give a square deal. Our stock will be worth more if we can squeeze the water out, and put it on a good basis, and thereby say that Orange county is cleaning up a little. Many people endorsed this company that would not had it known of the mismanagement. Time and space prevents me from giving many more things in connection with the business, but should it be necessary, the information will be forthcoming. I have tried to be fair, and write only what I think is right. Should you think or happen to know that I am wrong, please inform me. I am from Missouri. Let us be sure we are right then go ahead. Will write soon. Signed. J. Allan Knapp. FARMS IN NEW MEXICO Territory Making Progress Along Agricultural Lines The total value of farm land and buildings in New Mexico as returned by the Census, was given in 1910 as $111,430,000, as against $20,889,000 in 1900, an increase of $90,541,000, or 433 per cent. The total value of all farm land alone was reported in 1910 as $98,-496,000, as compared with $17,324,000 in 1900, a gain of $81,172,000, or 469 per cent. The total value of all farm build- was much gratified with this advancement, so started out to do business. He had a pleasing little story to tell his friends and neighbors, of which you are all familiar. Everybody was coming in on the same basis; it was a home company, and would do so much for Anaheim and community; a lumber yard would be operated in connection with the company, and all stockholders would have the privilege of purchasing any lumber they desired at a discount. In short, he went all over this country deceiving people, and asking them to pay $10 per share for stock, when he paid less than five cents for the same article. Is this not a fraudulent game? Because I do not believe any man, no matter how foolish he might seem to be, would put up ten dollars against the other fellow's 5 cents and believe he was on equal footing. He succeeded in alluring innocent people into the game to the extent of 900 shares (nine hundred), or $9,000. That is, we paid $9,000 for 900 shares, while Mr. Olmstead paid $5,000 for 11,500 shares. Same basis, think you? Six months or more has passed, with some business done. A few houses built, etc., and he, or the man behind him, has conceived a new idea; that is, the organization of a larger and more effective company in all respects. He will make it a county affair. A new board of directors is desired, so the county is scoured for men of reputation, who were capable of doing things and in whom the people had confidence. So a board of seven directors was selected from the different parts of the county. Another nice little story is manufactured; that is, if a small company, such as the Home Investment Co., could yield six per cent dividend in a few months operation, what would a B-I-g company do? So the board of directors of the Home Investment Co. declares a six per cent dividend, a good bait to sell stock in the B-I-g company. Now, where they got this money it is very hard to tell, because if $9000 plus $5000 in building lots could yield $7440 in dividends in a few months, somebody must have hurried. For the president owned 11,500 shares and the people 900, or 12,400 shares in all at $10 a share, in all making $124,000; a 6 per cent dividend on this amount is $7440. Mr. Olmstead would get, according to the number of shares held, $6900 as his dividend, more than the property he put into the company was worth. In process of time the new company was organized, known as the Orange County Investment Co., and it was then desired to buy the assets of the Home Co., which was done for the sum of 76,970 shares of the capital stock of the new concern, capitalized at $1,000,000, par value of each share at $1. This work was sold at $1.10 per share. The board of directors of the Orange County Investment Co. got next and learned that Mr. Olmstead had put one over them and therefore can The total value of farm land and buildings in New Mexico as returned by the Census, was given in 1910 as $111,430,000, as against $20,889,000 in 1900, an increase of $90,541,000, or 433 per cent. The total value of all farm land alone was reported in 1910 as $98,-496,000, as compared with $17,324,000 in 1900, a gain of $81,172,000, or 469 per cent. The total value of all farm buildings alone was given in 1910 as $12,934,000, as against $3,565,000 in 1900, an increase of $9,369,000, or 263 per cent. In 1910 the value of the farm land alone constituted 88 per cent of the total value of land and buildings, as compared with 83 per cent in 1900. The reported value of farm implements and machinery was $4,101,000 in 1910, as against $1,152,000 in 1900 a gain of $2,949,000, or 256 per cent. The total acreage reported in 1910 was 11,225,000 acres, as compared with 5,131,000 in 1900, a gain of 6,094,-900 acres, or 119 per cent. The improved acreage was returned in 1910 as amounting to 1,464,000 acres, as against 327,000 in 1900, an increase of 1,137,000 acres, or 348 per cent. The improved acreage formed 13 per cent of the total acreage in 1910 and 6 per cent in 1900. The average acres per farm reported in 1910 was 320, as against 417 in 1900, and a decrease of 97 acres, or 23 per cent. The average value per acre of the farm land and buildings in 1910 is stated as $9.93, as against $4.07 in 1900, a rise of $5.86, or 144 percent. The average value per acre of farm land alone in 1910 was reported as $8.77, while in 1900 it was $3.38,the amount of gain being $5.39 ,or 159 per cent. Of the whole number，35，O32，of farms reported in 1910 there were 33,-180，or 95 per cent，operated by white farmers，and 1852，or 5 per cent，by negro and other nonwhite farmers，as compared with a total of 12，311 in 1900，of which 10，893，or 88 per cent，were conducted by white farmers，and 1418，or 12 per cent，by negro and other nonwhite.The increase in the number of farms of white farmers during the decade amounted to 22，287,and in the number of farms of negro and other non-white farmers to 434.

In process of time the new company was organized, known as the Orange County Investment Co., and it was then desired to buy the assets of the Home Co., which was done for the sum of 76,970 shares of the capital stock of the new concern, capitalized at $1,000,000, par value of each share at $1. This work was sold at $1.10 per share. The board of directors of the Orange County Investment Co. got next and learned that Mr. Olmstead had put one over them, and therefore cancelled the sale. By the way, one of Mr. Olmstead's special friends took him into the basement of the present office of the company and got him up against the stone wall and tried to tell him that he would get into trouble should he attempt to sell the Home Co. at 76,970 shares, and after an hour of pleading he did not convince Mr. Olmstead of his perilous position. He, however, learned something when the board cancelled the sale. A committee was appointed to appraise all property in the Home Co., reporting that the property was worth around $22,000, and afterwards giving 32,500 shares of the capital stock of Orange Co. Investment Co., par value $1 per share. When the Home Co. was bought it had no liabilities, and since then the new company has paid around four or five thousand dollars in bills, which have come to light. Of the 32,500 shares the people own 9000 shares. Mr. Olmstead, I believe, holds 20,500 shares, making 29,500 shares. Who can account for the other 3000 shares? Who holds them? I think I can tell, were I given a chance. I am writing this that the public might know the exact condition of affairs, and that I am justified in my action. I contend that the sale of the Home Co. be set aside, until Mr. Olmstead comes in on the same basis as all stockholders. Why should be be a pet in the company, True; he promoted it, and should have something, which he has already gotten. Were it a success, all negro and other nonwhite farmers, as compared with a total of 12,311 in 1900; of which 10,893, or 88 percent, were conducted by white farmers, and 1418, or 12 per cent, by negro and other nonwhite. The increase in the number of farms of white farmers during the decade amounted to 22,287, and in the number of farms of negro and other nonwhite farmers to 434. The total number of farms operated in 1910 by owners, part owners, and owners and tenants, comprising the "all owners" class, was 32,763, as compared with 10,674 in 1900; an increase of 22,089. The expenditures for labor in 1910 reached the sum of $3,611,000, as compared with $1,954,000 in 1900; an increase of $1,660,000, or 85 per cent. The expenditures for fertilizers amounted in 1910 to $24,000, while in 1900 it was $8000; an increase of $21,-000, or 700 per cent. DRY-FARMING CONGRESS Sixth International Meeting to Be Held at Colorado Springs The Sixth International Dry-Farming Congress to be held at Colorado Springs, Colo., beginning on Monday, October 16, will be a conference of farmers, scientists, state and federal experts, land owners and others interested in agricultural development, representing every nation within whose borders the precipitation drops below the net annual average of 20 inches. The International Congress of farm women is a crystallization of the growing feeling that now is the time to begin improving conditions in the home of the farmer, and to establish higher ideals in rural communities. This farm women's congress is called as an auxiliary to the dry farming congress, by authority of the board of governors of the dry farming congress acting jointly with the Colorado board of control. All persons or societies desiring to advance the cause of better homes upon the farms are urged to address the secretary of the women's congress, P.O. box 1098, Colorado Springs Colorado, for information. All persons interested in this proposed work and all leaders in educational movements for men and women are invited to participate. The International Exposition of dry farmed products is held for the purpose of showing in direct competition, every form of product from the semi-arid unirrigated lands of the world. This is the fourth exposition of its kind. Dry farming is the most interesting and important movement in the world. Years of testing by various methods and systems have shown that drought is practically overcome where farmers select seed and carefully utilize proper methods of tillage. THE IRISHMAN'S SHILLELAGH The shillelagh, which showed at Louth that it has not entirely lost its old importance as a factor in deciding elections, is no raw limb of a tree. It is almost as much a work of art as a well-balanced cricket bat. The old shillelaghs were as carefully looked after by their loving owners as is a rifle in the wilds. Cut from the sturdiest of young blackthorns, and showing as little taper as an ebony ruler, it was weighted with lead or iron at the end nearest the grip, so that its center of gravity was about four-fifths of the way from the well-equipped dining-hall furnish board and room to students. There are also buildings to accommodate various branches of experimental work, which are carried on under special appropriations. A well-planned water and sewer system serves all present buildings on the farm, and is arranged to serve future buildings as they are erected. The water is pumped from a deep well into a large storage tank, at sixty feet elevation. Sewage disposal is by means of a septic tank. Courses of Instruction Three different courses of agricultural instruction are given on the University Farm, each using all necessary equipment so as to obtain the best possible results. These courses are as follows: 1. The University Farm School. 2. The Short Courses for Farmers. These courses are given during October and November of each year. They range from two to eight weeks in length, and are open to any citizen of California over 17 years of age. No tuition is charged. A descriptive circular will be mailed free upon application to the Superintendent of University Farm Schools, Berkeley, California. 3. The College of Agriculture of the University of California gives at the farm many of its regular courses in animal industry, dairy industry, poultry husbandry, veterinary science, etc. For information concerning these courses, application should be made to the Dean, College of Agriculture, Berkeley, California.

Conrad Stueckle, Plaintiff, vs. Emil A. Sanger and A.H.Ricketts, Trustees, and Casper M.Sanger Defendants UNIVERSITY FARM SCHOOL Announcement of Instructions to Be Given, the Coming Season. An act of the Legislature of 1905 created a Commission to select, and provided money to purchase, a farm for the University of California, to be called the University Farm, and to be used through the College of Agriculture for conducting experiment and for giving instruction to students in agriculture. The commission finally selected a farm of 780 acres of fine valley land near Davis, in Yolo county, which was purchased in 1906. Davis is thirteen miles west of Sacramento, and ten miles south of Woodland; it is at the junction of two branches of the Southern Pacific railroad, one leading into Oregon, the other to the East. The farm adjoins the town on the west, and lies along the north bank of Putah Creek. Various divisions of the College of Agriculture and Agricultural Experiment Station are using portions of the farm for experimental purposes under special state appropriations. Investigations looking toward the improvement of cereal crops of all kinds are conducted upon fifty acres. Twenty acres have been planted to vines of many different varieties and upon various resistant stock in harmony with a well-defined plan for continued investigations in viticulture. The study of plant diseases in Northern California has been more permanent by the recent allotment of twelve acres of land on the farm for nursery and orchard purposes. Irrigation investigations under the control of the United States Department of Agriculture are conducted upon some twenty-five acres chiefly along lines of determining duty of water. In addition to these areas adequate portions have been set aside to the Animal Industry, Horticulture and Poultry Divisions, each of which has made substantial progress along its particular line. Sixth Annual Meeting Promises Large Attendance The enthusiasm over the coming Turnfest June 23-26 inclusive, seems to be spreading over all Southern California.

Irrigation investigations under the control of the United States Department of Agriculture are conducted upon some twenty-five acres chiefly along lines of determining duty of water. In addition to these areas adequate portions have been set aside to the Animal Industry, Horticulture and Poultry Divisions, each of which has made substantial progress along its particular line. For purposes of instruction in agriculture a number of buildings have been erected on the farm since its purchase, while others are being added as need arises and funds are available. A well-arranged creamery building accommodates the instruction and experimental work in all branches of dairy industry. All necessary creamery apparatus of the best type will be found here; the laboratories are equipped for work of the highest grade; class rooms and offices are in the same building. The work in plant industries centers round the horticultural building, which in addition to the necessary laboratories for plant study, including a green-house, also furnishes class rooms and laboratories for the academic work of the University Farm School. Several buildings are used for instruction to animal industry. Among these are a model dairy barn, large horse and sheep barns, a stock judging pavilion, and a class room and office building. There is also a building devoted to the work in veterinary science; it contains an operating room, laboratory, lecture rooms and offices, as well as a small stable for animals receiving surgical or medical attention. The poultry plant is housed in a group of buildings adapted to its purposes; here are an incubator cellar, brooding and laying houses, colony houses and other needful buildings. A large one-story building is occupied but the carpentry and forge shops of the University Farm School. A comfortable dormitory and George W. Angle, ex-supervisor, has been appointed to expert on the books of the county officers by the board of supervisors for the time covered between January 1st and July 1st.

DANGER IN DELAY Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous for Anaheim People to Neglect The great danger of kidney troubles is that they get a firm hold before the sufferer recognizes them. Health is gradually undermined. Backache, headache, nervousness, lameness, soreness, lumbago, urinary troubles, dropsy, and Bright's disease follow in merciless succession. Don't neglect your kidneys. Help the kidneys with the reliable and safe remedy, Doan's Kidney Pills, which has cured people right here in Anaheim. Mrs. N. Hart, 122 S. Claudina St., Anaheim, Cal., says: "I am only too glad to recommend. Doan's Kidney Pills. I suffered severely from rheumatic pains and my back was so weak and lame that I could hardly get about. On a friend's advice, I procured a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at Mullinix's drug store and commenced their use. I was surprised at the results, as the first dose brought me relief. After I had taken the contents of one box, kidney trouble had been driven from my system. I gave a statement for publication in 1907, setting forth my experience with this remedy and I now gladly confirm all I then said. The benefit Doan's Kidney Pills gave me has been permanent."
