SPAIN'S ORANGES DOMINATE THE MARKET
VERY LITTLE OF THE CALIFORNIA FRUIT REACHES THE MARTS OF EUROPE.
CO-OPERATION IS ASSISTING THE GROWERS AND DEALERS TO GET PROFITS
Spanish orange shippers, who practically control the European markets by reason of the volume of fruit they ship, have this year undertaken and with every indication of success, to regulate shipments as a fact, or in maintaining prices on a profitable basis.
Not only does Spain supply northern Europe with the major part of the oranges there consumed, but the fruit she ships is of a superior quality, particularly so in the case of the "Denias," the best brands of which command a permium on the markets. The Spanish exports or shipments amount to some 40,000 (California) carloads yearly. While Italian exports approximate 10,000 (California) carloads annually of oranges, the fruit is of inferior quality to that of the Spanish, and is not an important factor in the important markets of northern Europe, to which points most of the Spanish crop is shipped.
The conditions surrounding the export of the Spanish orange crop are very different from those under which the California fruit is handled, and in this very difference mainly lies the possibility and probability of success in a practical control of shipments.
In Valencia, Spain, the point from which the greater part of the crop is shipped, the marketing of the fruit is financed by means of English capital. Prominent Liverpool brokerage houses dominate the business by advancing the funds necessary for the handling of the fruit.
The proposition to regulate shipments came in the first place from tactive for the disposal of such a surplus.
The future is to see important shipments of California navel and Valencia oranges to European markets. A "regulated" market should provide more favorable conditions than one subject to violent fluctuations.
It shows that it is possible to inaugurate a policy of control in the shipment of a perishable product, and to establish such control with every indication pointing to success. However, the details of the scheme are upon lines which would most certainly in this country be classed as being "in restraint of trade."
NEW MINING BUREAU PUBLICATION
In response to a demand not only from residents of California but from prospective investors and others interested in the mineral resources of the state throughout the world, the State Mining Bureau announces the publication, for free distribution, of Bulletin No. 66, containing the mining laws of California.
A working knowledge of the law governing the location, development and acquisition of mineral land is necessary to all who are in any way connected with mining and the above bulletin is presented with the idea of following out the principle which State Mineralogist Hamilton is pursuing in all the branches of the work of the mining bureau, i.e., the advancement of the mineral industry in all possible ways.
All statutes and amendments including those enacted by the State Legislature during the 1913 session are contained therein as well as the U.S. mining laws and various court decisions relating to mining.
As an appendix are included the full text of the "Blue Sky" law and the Water Commission Act which were passed by the last legislature but are inoperative at present, having first to go before the people under the referendum.
It has been deemed proper to include the "Blue Sky" law as its action if it becomes operative will have considerable effect in suppressing illegitimate mining schemes, and will on that account accomplish much toward putting the industry on a sound footing and establishing a confidence in mining which is merited in the great majority of cases, but which is often lacking because of the fact that unscrupulous persons have used the industry as a means of perpetrating frauds upon the public.

The conditions surrounding the port of the Spanish orange crop are very different from those under which the California fruit is handled, and in this very difference mainly lies the possibility and probability of success in a practical control of shipments.
In Valencia, Spain, the point from which the greater part of the crop is shipped, the marketing of the fruit is financed by means of English capital. Prominent Liverpool brokerage houses dominate the business by advancing the funds necessary for the handling of the fruit.
The proposition to regulate shipments came in the first place from these English firms, aiming to maintain regular supplies and avoid the disastrous glutten markets of the past, and to eliminate rebates which had grown to be a serious menace to the business,—thus placing all shippers on an equal basis so far as transportation charges and shipping facilities are concerned.
While in the first place many of the Spanish shippers refused to accede to the proposals emanating from Liverpool, the announcement that the usual credits required for the opening of the shipping season would be withheld pending the acceptance of the plans by all parties quickly stopped all opposition, and all the local shippers and packers became parties to the agreement.
The season of 1913-14 will then be notable in the Spanish orange business for two important events:
The agreement to withhold shipments until November 10th, whilst previous years had seen shipments of immature fruit going forward as a rule not later than October 25th.
The first practical efforts at cooperation between the local shippers in Valencia and the Liverpool brokers or handlers.
It is significant that the agreement to withhold shipments was faithfully kept by all shippers.
The actual methods by which this regulation of the shipments is maintained is of interest to all engaged in the orange business, wherever they may be situated. Under the new Valencia-Liverpool agreement shipments are regulated at point of shipment, a committee of 11 having been appointed to undertake this. Of this committee five are appointed from among the representatives in Valencia of the Liverpool handlers, and six by the local Valencia shipping interests.
This committee meets often, arranging shipping schedules, the size of cargoes according to current market conditions as reported from Liverpool, and also so handling the business as to kill the rebate system which had finally grown to such large proportions.
While it is yet too early to prophesy as to the ultimate success of these plans to control a perishable product by means of regulating the shipments thereof, it is of importance that it has, to date, worked out without a hitch. Shipments from Valencia for the first three weeks this season amounted to but 30,000 cases (70,000 California boxes) against between 50,000 and 60,000 cases (120,000 to 140,000 California boxes) for 1912.

While it is yet too early to prophesy as to the ultimate success of these plans to control a perishable product by means of regulating the shipments thereof, it is of importance that it has, to date, worked out without a hitch. Shipments from Valencia for the first three weeks this season amounted to but 30,000 cases (70,000 California boxes) against between 50,000 and 60,000 cases (120,000 to 140,000 California boxes) for 1912.
Prices were well maintained under the reduced shipments, although it is impossible to estimate how much of the shortage was actually due to the short crop this season. There was, however, an outcry in a number of the English papers anent the increase in the prices of oranges to the consumer last Christmas.
Present information is to the effect that there will be no effort made to abnormally "boost" the market, but rather, by maintaining regular supplies, sufficient only to fill the existing demands, to obtain an even market, profitable to all, in place of the gluts and "famines" of previous seasons.
Reports so far are silent as to the effects the new plan or agreement has or will have upon the grower. He has not been mentioned, and it almost looks as if he may ultimately find himself in the position of the under dog, unless he can organize successfully for his own benefit.
There are several reasons why this new plan or agreement to control one of the world's most important sources of orange supply is of great interest to the California orange grower.
Any great curtailment of shipments to northern European markets, the regular channels of trade, might lead to heavy shipments into this country under the new tariff, from the fact that there might be a surplus to dispose of. A nominal price would probably be acceptable for such fruit, the "regulated" markets providing profits sufficient to make a low market here at-

MUCH LAND STILL LYING IDLE IS REPORT
ONLY 27 PER CENT OF TILLABLE LAND UNDER CULTIVATION AT PRESENT
MORE THAN DOUBLE THAT TERRITORY CAN BE UTILIZED IN GROWING CROPS
Only 27 per cent of the tillable land of the United States is actually under cultivation according to estimates of the Department of Agriculture, based upon reports of 35,000 correspondents.
These reports were obtained in order to gain information as to the tillable area of the United States, the amount of land that can not be used for crops that have to be plowed but available for pasture or fruits, and the total number of acres that never can be used for agricultural purposes. From the returns, which were generally very consistent, preliminary estimates have been made for each state and for the United States. Further investigation in the Far Western states may modify somewhat the present estimate for those states.
The entire United States, excluding foreign possessions, contains about 1,900,000,000 acres. Of this area about 60 per cent, or 1,140,000,000 acres, is estimated to be tillable; that is, capable of being brought under cultivation by means of the plow. This includes land already under such cultivation and that which in the future may be brought under cultivation by clearing, drainage, irrigation, etc.
Three hundred and sixty-one million acres, or 19 per cent, are estimated to be nontillable but valuable for pasture or fruits. Only 21 per cent, or 399,000,000 acres, was estimated to be of no use for agriculture, present or future.
According to the census of 1909, the land area in crops where acreage was given was 311,000,000 acres. This is about 16 per cent of the total land area, or about 27 per cent of the estimated potential tillable area, of the United States, excluding foreign pos-

Three hundred and sixty-one million acres, or 19 per cent, are estimated to be nontillable but valuable for pasture or fruits. Only 21 per cent, or 399,000,000 acres, was estimated to be of no use for agriculture, present or future.
According to the census of 1909, the land area in crops where acreage was given was 311,000,000 acres. This is about 16 per cent of the total land area, or about 27 per cent of the estimated potential tillable area, of the United States, excluding foreign possessions.
In other words, for every 100 acres that are now tilled, about 375 acres may be tilled when the country is fully developed. In the development of the agriculture of the country the land which was most easily brought into a state of cultivation, as the great Mississippi Valley, was the first to be brought into such use. Extension of tilled area will be at greater expense for clearing, drainage, irrigation, etc. The increased production of the future will be the result of increased yields per acre as well as extension of area.
BUILDING IN SOUTHWEST
Careful estimates put the amount of money invested in new building in Southern California during 1913 at $75,000,000. Of this sum there is credited to Los Angeles $31,500,000, and to other cities from which definite figures are receivable $20,000,000 worth of construction is reported. The cities from which definite reports are received running over $1,000,000 are: San Diego, with in round numbers, 6;800,000; Long Beach, $4,000,000; Pasadena, $2,720,000; Santa Monica, $1,050,000. Running from at least half a million to short of a million are Venice, with in round numbers, $850,000; Santa Ana, with $680,000; and Glendale with $635,000.
CALIFORNIA'S MOUNTAINS
Things are wonderful principally by comparison. There are sixty or more lofty mountains in California rising more than 13,000 feet above sea level which are not considered sufficiently noteworthy among all the surrounding wealth of mountain scenery to have even received names, according to the United States Geological Survey. Any one of these mountain peaks, if situated in the eastern part of the United States, would of course be visited by millions of people. But California has seventy additional mountain peaks more than 13,000 feet high which have been named, or 130 in all, as well as a dozen rising above 14,000 feet.

REGISTRATION CLERKS TALKING POLITICS
Rigid inquiry into the registration methods used by progressive deputies in Los Angeles and the charge that they are utilizing their positions to further the interests of their party is being made by the county authorities. The inquiry in which ten or more deputies are said to be involved, comes as the result of a startling complaint made by former Senator Cornelius Cole, aged 92. For 71 years Senator Cole has voted the Republican ticket and has registered as a member of the Rpublican party.
Some days ago Deputy Registar W. A. Boden, according to Senator Cole's complaint, called at his home to obtain his registration. The deputy, according to the senator, stated that he could only register him as a progressive because the Republican party had disbanded. Senator Cole reported the matter to County Registrar McAleer and Boden was suspended for one day. He explained that he had read in a morning paper that the Republican party had been disbanded.
Other complaints are being investigated and Registrar McAleer declared he would discharge any deputy found "doing politics" for either the Progressives or the Republicans.
"I intend to make this registration as free from politics as possible," said McAleer. "I will not tolerate my deputies doing politics for any of the parties. Neither will I permit them to use arguments to persuade voters to register for either party.
"Several complaints have been received and are being investigated. If I find the reports true the deputies will go."
F. J. Dettenthaler and D. T. Stevenson, of Orange, were in town the first of the week consulting members of the Board of Trade relative to good roads.

...GAS IN TIN PAILS...
If it were practicable for a housewife to come to our gas manufacturing works and buy a pail of gas, we would need no city franchise to deliver our product.
We would not have to make a large investment in street mains, service pipes and meters, franchises and state taxes, nor would we have to employ a force to inspect and read the meters.
Under these conditions we could sell GAS at a much lower price than we now sell GAS SERVICE.
Were it possible to handle gas in the way that groceries and coal are handled, we could install several automobile expresses larger than the largest trucks in your city for a ridiculous fraction of the cost of our distributing system.
But forced to accept certain "things as they are," we have to invest more money in our gas DISTRIBUTING equipment than for our MANUFACTURING apparatus.
