MAKE LOANS TO CALIFORNIA FARMERS AGRICULTURE CREDIT CORPORATION FORMED WITH A CAPITAL OF ONE MILLION DOLLARS ORANGE COUNTY BANKERS ARE PARTICIPANTS IN SCHEME FOR RELIEF OF GROWERS Relief for the farmers of California from the scarcity of money which has hampered their operations is assured by the filing in San Francisco of the articles of incorporation of the Agricultural Credit Corporation of California. The articles recite that this is a corporation with an authorized capital of $1,000,000, organized for the purpose of guaranteeing mortgages and issuing participation certificates and debenture bonds against mortgages on California farm land. It is the plan of the company to make long time loans to California farmers repayable in small installments spread over a number of years and at the most reasonable market rates. The organizers plan to conduct the company in such a manner as to make it of the greatest possible service in assisting the farmers of the state to obtain loans on their farms with which to assist in the development of the state and the increase of its agricultural products. That the company is competent to carry out these large plans is evidenced by the character of the men who are behind it. These are: J.M. Henderson Jr. president of what is of vastly more importance, the company will be the means of bringing to the state from the East and abroad large sums of money which can be developed to very profitable and advantageous uses in assisting in that development of California which is sure to follow the opening of the Panama Canal and the introduction of thousands of farm buyers from foreign countries of Europe. Such a company as the Agricultural Credit Corporation of California must necessarily be of the greatest benefit to all classes of people in the state, not only to the farmers who will make direct use of the money which the company will bring in but also to the banks where the money will be deposited and to the merchants where it will add to the volume of business and to every other class which can possibly benefit through the more rapid development of the agricultural districts of the state. RANCHERS DISAGREE As the result of an altercation between Dan Oliver and Byron Van Leuven, in which the latter was severely slashed, a complaint has been filed before Superior Judge Pitman of San Bernardino, charging Oliver with assault in an attempt to commit murder. Van Leuven was cut to such an extent that it took 28 stitches to close his wounds when he was taken to the Loma Linda hospital. Most of the wounds are on his abdomen and legs, and the end of one thumb was cut off. The trouble occurred last Sunday, at Redlands Junction. Van Leuven is a pioneer orange grower there. Oliver is employed by C.A. Puffer, a prominent orange grower of the Mission district. Puffer had bought some Mill Creek water, over the title of which there appears to be a dispute. The fight occurred when Van Leuven diverted the water after it had been years and at the most reasonable market rates.

Henderson, Jr., president of the Sacramento Bank and the Fort Sutter National Bank of Sacramento, and a member of the executive council of the California Bankers' Association. Norman Lombard, a well known farm mortgage expert who has herefore been very instrumental in bringing large amounts of money from the East and abroad for the use of California farmers. Edwin A. Meserve, a prominent lawyer of Los Angeles, who is counselor for a number of large institutions having land interests in different parts of the state.

MOVIE MEN ARRESTED Five moving picture cowboys who have been at work with the Pathe company in the Santiago canyon practiced roping a cow Monday, and when they had finished with their fun the cow was so badly injured that she was unable to get off the ground. Constable G. L. Jackson and Deputy Tomblin were going up the canyon yesterday when they saw the riders throwing ropes at the animal. They saw her thrown, but thought nothing of it further than that they supposed the animal was being captured to be branded or butchered. Returning yesterday afternoon the officers found the cow helpless. Her legs had been burned with ropes and one hip showed a bad injury. There was indications on the ground that the cowboys had amused themselves by dragging the cow. In response to the demand of the officers, five cowboys showed up in Justice Fullerton's court on Tuesday morning. They were Frank Berry, foreman, Leo Glines, R. J. Keith, Geo.Sowards and Clarence Jones. They pleaded guilty to a charge of cruelty to an animal, and paid a fine of $10 each. Justice Fullerton ordered them to either kill the cow or take proper care of her. FOREST NOTES Switzerland has four co-operative associations for the growing and marketing of forest products. The United States forest service is using gasoline railway speeders for fire protection purposes. They follow up trains on steep grades where sparks thrown out by forced draft are likely to start fires along the right of way. Forest officers have found that high power telescopes are not always satisfactory in fire-lookout work. In some localities heat vibrations in the atmosphere are so magnified by the glass that clearer vision can be had with the unaided eye. At the national conservation library district.

After the various county rallies have been held there will be a grand organization rally in Los Angeles, at which the complete organization will be accomplished.” Band and vocal music will be features of each county rally, and many other attractions calculated to make the rallies popular county celebrations and manifestations of the Booster Club spirit will be arranged.
