FRUIT ASSOCIATION IN ANNUAL SESSION
(continued from page 1)
must be supplied through fertilizers. Crops grown successively on soil without the aid of fertilizers would gradually return to the wild state."
He read figures showing the cost of the fertilizing elements in the following materials if bought in the market:
Bean straw $6 per ton, wheat-straw $2, barley straw $3, alfalfa $9.
The elements in these are not so readily available to the trees as the commercial fertilizers, but when used as bedding for animals it is well to select that having the most fertilizer constituents.
He said that in comparative values, taking stable manure from horses as being worth $3 per ton, that from cattle was worth $2.50 per ton, from sheep $4, from chickens $7.50 to $10. to $10.
J. A. Reid, representative of the citrus fruit exchange, spoke on the work of the exchange during the past year and its future prospects. He said the exchange had marketed more than 60 per cent of last season's crop. Twenty million dollars' worth of fruit had been handled and not a single dollar was lost. It also received from 25 to 30 cents per box more for its fruit than the regular price. Mr. Reid attributed the exchange's remarkable success to the advertising campaign adopted a year ago, more than $160,000 being spent in advertising during the year.
Mr. Reid is an enthusiastic advocate named could compare with England, which assembled 173 ships at the coronation review at Spithead, including thirty-two battleships and twenty-five armored cruisers.

said the exchange had marketed more than 60 per cent of last season's crop. Twenty million dollars' worth of fruit had been handled and not a single dollar was lost. It also received from 25 to 30 cents per box more for its fruit than the regular price. Mr. Reid attributed the exchange's remarkable success to the advertising campaign adopted a year ago, more than $160,000 being spent in advertising during the year.
Mr. Reid is an enthusiastic advocate of co-operation. "All the profits which the independent shipper must make," he said, "go into the pockets of the grower through the co-operative system. Moreover, he gets his supplies much cheaper, and has been getting higher prices for his product."
Mr. Hutchings of the Fruit Growers' Supply Co., who accompanied Mr. Reid, made a short address on his branch of the fruit industry. The company was organized, he said, principally for the purpose of supplying box lumber to growers, and at the present time it was consuming about one-third of the lumber supply of nor- the three elements needed—nitrogen, phosphorous and potash—and these thern California, shipping from nine to twelve million boxes a year. "We are now handling two million feet of lumber a month, thirty or forty tons of nails, and the association consumes 150 carloads of tissue paper wrappers per year. The printers raised the price on wrappers 25 percent a short time ago, but we threatened to put up our own plant and they thought better of it. We supply everything needed by the grower and are now endeavoring to widen our range of usefulness by developing cheaper cyanide."
A. Plerotti, of Placentia, was called upon for a speech and made a short talk on the early struggles of the association. He said that many mistakes were made when the ex- change was first organized and many members dropped it. Also in the years 1901 to 1903 crops were short and prices exceedingly low. He finally sold a crop, he said, for $1.00 per box and was jubilant over the price, but discovered later that if he had sold through the exchange he would have received $3000 more money for it.
The question of fumigating was introduced by C. E. Jones, who complained of the cost and unsatisfactory service. After considerable discussion on motion of Charles Eygabroad it was voted to purchase tents and establish an association fumigating

MORE SUGAR FACTORIES
Nation Needs 400 New Mills to Supply Home Demand for Sugar
To supply the nation's sugar demand, 400 beet sugar factories with the same capacity as the seventy odd now flourishing in fourteen different states of the union would be required, according to officials of the department of agriculture. The erection of additional factories is entirely feasible and there is no reason why it should not be done, they say.
Sugar beet production has been one of the hobbies of Secretary Wilson. He has advocated sugar beet culture on an extensive scale, and created the board of sugar beet investigation scientifically to study cultivation of the plant, seed production, sugar reduction, climatic effect and other things affecting the sugar beet

THE AMERICAN NAVY
The mobilization of the Atlantic and Pacific fleets at New York and San Pedro October 30 to November 2 will mark the gathering of the greatest naval forces that ever floated in the waters of this hemisphere.
While the number of vessels to be assembled does not equal the ships reviewed by the German Emperor at Kiel last summer, the 126 American ships, with their tremendous displacement of 693,844 tons, are really more powerful than the German fleet. The Atlantic fleet will comprise 102 vessels of all classes, with a total displacement of 577,599 tons, and the Pacific fleet, twenty-four vessels of 116,246 tons. The combined fleets will include thirty-two armored ships, while the German fleet number 29. The American battleships will number twenty-five and the armored cruisers six, while the German fleet included twenty-three battle ships and six armored cruisers.
France assembled twenty-five battleships and ten armored cruisers at Toulon review last summer, but in other ships the fleet was much weaker than America's.
The total French display included only eighty-two ships. Of course, none of the three countries above-ment of agriculture. The erection of additional factories is entirely feasible and there is no reason why it should not be done, they say.
Sugar beet production has been one of the hobbies of Secretary Wilson. He has advocated sugar beet culture on an extensive scale, and created the board of sugar beet investigation scientifically to study cultivation of the plant, seed production, sugar reduction, climatic effect and other things affecting the sugar beet industry.
He has made personal investigations of the sugar beet industry in California, Colorado and Michigan — the leading sugar beet states of the country.
Dr. B. T. Galloway, chief of the bureau of plant industry, which has assumed charge of the sugar beet investigations, said:
"The department has done everything in its power to encourage the sugar beet industry in this country. It has had its effect, but the work is slow for some reason or other. Possibly the fact that practically all the seed has to be imported from Europe has had something to do with keeping practical sugar men out of it. This we are overcoming gradually. Experts are laboring hard on the seed question and I think it is but a matter of time before we shall be able to produce all first grade seed here that our sugar beet planters can use."
"The possibilities of beet sugar making in the United States are practically unlimited. Vast areas of excellent beet land in the middle and western states are waiting for the practical sugar men to work."
Approximately 7,000,000 tons of beet sugar are produced in the world annually. Of this amount the United States grows about one-fourteenth, or 500,000 tons. The leading sugar beet producing nations are Germany, 2,500-

The condition of the present year's crop of sugar beets is pronounced excellent, in spite of the general dry well in some of the western states.
MEASURE WATER POWER
Sacramento, Oct. 17.—The immediate compilation of data to determine how much water power the state possesses has been ordered by the state conservation commission and state board of control of water power. Secretary Glavis says that by the use of water flow data and profit measurements which the commission and the United States geological survey are jointly taking in the mountains he will shortly be able to know the extent of the water power in California.

AFTER FOURTEEN YEARS
Nestizo Fellows, Once Sentenced to Hang, Out of Prison
After fourteen years in San Quentin Manuel Fellows is out on parole. Fellows was sentenced to life imprisonment for the killing of Garcia, a sapponkeeper, at San Juan Capistrano. An prison he became a trusty, and was recommended to the prison board for parole.
He arrived at San Juan Capistrano about a week ago and began his employment as a rider on the Mission Tlejo. He is a big, husky man, and weighs 220 pounds. While in prison he learned to read and write. Though it is fourteen years since Fellows was on a horse, he took to the riding as naturally as though he had not missed a week.
Fellows had been on a spree at the Mission town for some time and Garcia had caused his arrest for disturbing the peace. Fellows, who was a lead shot, hid across the street and when Garcia came out of his saloon, Fellows fired.
Judge Ballard sentenced Fellows to hang. On retrial sentence was for life.
WOMEN DEPUTY CLERKS
Four women deputies have been appointed by County Clerk Williams to facilitate in the registration of women in the Fifth supervisorial district preparatory to the election to determine whether or not the district, exclusive of Santa Ana and Newport Beach, shall go "wet." The women appointed as registration clerks are Abbie L. Shatto, Alma J. Kellogg, Margaret R. Rawling and Elizabeth J. Durham. It is their intention to hasten the work of registration. I. H. Dysinger was appointed a registration clerk for Fullerton.

The effort to secure an extension of the electric line from La Habra to Fullerton has been renewed by the Fullerton chamber of commerce, which has appointed a committee to obtain right of way. A definite proposition must be presented to the Pacific Electric by the citizens before the line will be built, according to advices received from officials of the company. A conference with Paul Shoup probably will be held next month. President Benchley of the local chamber was instructed by the directors to inform the company that Fullerton will offer the right of way from the La Habra line to the southern city limits. Anaheim is expected to secure the right of way from that point and through that city.
The tomato harvest in the Fullerton district is now in full swing, and the outlook is for a better production than last year. The total acreage devoted to the crop this year is 1000 acres. The yield last year averaged five tons to the acre. Packing houses are paying growers $25 per ton, which is nearly double the price obtained last season at this time.
Ninety-five percent of the crop has been taken by the California Vegetable union. The season will last until Christmas, barring frosts. The largest grower is John Hettebrink, who has thirty-six acres of tomatoes. Most of the crop goes to eastern markets, and is packed when half ripe. Women employed in packing make from $15 to $18 a week. Tomatoes are wrapped like oranges, and run about twenty to the basket, four baskets to the crate and 750 crates to the car. A carload would contain about 60,000 tomatoes. The culls are sold to canneries for $7.50. Many orange growers are growing tomatoes between the rows of trees and netting a nice pro-
WOES OF THE BLIND PIG
Martin Guerra, a former Talbert blind-pigger, is out of jail, but if he is wise he will sell no more liquor. He was caught by Constable Squires on June 25, was convicted and sentenced to pay a $200 fine. Having no money he went to jail until last week, when $22 was produced, completing the law's requirement.
But before Guerra went he was faced with seven new charges, each for a specific sale of liquor.
Guerra pleaded guilty to each and every charge, and Justice Cox of Santa Ana handed out seven jail sentences, running from 95 to 60 days each, enough to last Guerra for quite a while. Commitments were withheld and Guerra promised to sell no more liquor and to keep in the straight and narrow path. He said he would go to work and take care of his wife and children.
