STATE HIGHWAY BIDS OPEN SOON EIGHTY MILES OF WORK TO BE LET BY STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR THE PURCHASE OF NEARLY $3,000,000 OF BONDS RECEIVED Bids for construction on the state highway will be opened during April by the California Highway Commission at its office in Sacramento on more than 80 miles of work, as follows: In Siskiyou county, for grading from Hornbrook to the Oregon line, 8 miles; bids received until April 27. In Shasta county, for grading from Lemoine to Hazel Creek postoffice, 9.9 miles; bids received until April 27. In Tehama county, from the Glenn county boundary to Corning, 8.8 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 27. In Glenn county, from the Tehama county boundary to Grapit, 7 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 27. In Solano county, from Benicia to a point 2½ miles south of Cordelia, about 9 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 13. In Butte county, from Lindo channel to the Tehama county boundary, 11.2 perimental stretches of roads and other problems developed in the construction of the state highway were taken up in advance of the large amount of construction planned by the highway commission for the coming summer. Similar conferences will be held at intervals throughout the construction of the state highway. CALIFORNIA FRUIT TO GO THROUGH CANAL That one-third of the fruit produced in California will be carried through the Panama Canal is the prediction of Charles E. Virden of the California Fruit Distributors. Mr. Virden said: "Three steamship lines have written to me concerning the possibilities of fruit carrying through the Panama Canal and the type of refrigeration necessary to handle fruit which crosses the tropics. Evidently they intend to reach out for this remunerative trade, and I believe the possibilities are large. "The present contemplated schedule for steamers through the Panama Canal to New York is about 15 days against 10 by the rail route. This prohibits the shipments of such fruits as the peach, the apricot, the plum and the cherry, and most of the trade will lie in the varieties whose keeping qualities are better. I should say that pears, apples, oranges and lemons would find their way in large part through the Panama Canal, but until we have some method of refrigeration which will preclude decay for a longer period than is now possible I do not look for heavy shipments in the more perishable fruits. "However, with the constantly increasing amount of citrus fruits in this section, and the possibilities of better refrigeration, the inquiry of the steamship companies is of large moment. It may be that the majority of the fruit will finally be carried East by water." ALL CALIFORNIA In Tehama county, from the Glenn county boundary to Corning, 8.8 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 27. In Glenn county, from the Tehama county boundary to Grapit, 7 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 27. In Solano county, from Benicia to a point 2½ miles south of Cordelia, about 9 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 13. In Butte county, from Lindo channel to the Tehama county boundary, 11.2 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 27. In Alameda county, from Hayward to Oakland, 5.1 miles to be surfaced with asphaltic concrete; bids received until April 13. From Hayward to Valle Vista school, 3.1 miles to be built of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 13. In Kern county, from Tulare county boundary to Dearborn, 12.4 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 13. In Ventura county, from Sea Cliff to the Santa Barbara county line, 5.1 miles of Portland cement concrete; bids received until April 13. In Sonoma county, from Cloverdale to the northerly boundary, 4½ miles of grading; bids received until April 27. California contractors desiring to bid on any section of the state highway work should correspond with the California Highway Commission, Forum building, Sacramento. Materials on the work are furnished by the state. Subscriptions for the purchase of state highway bonds approximating $3,000,000 were received March 30 by State Treasurer Roberts. Among them were sales made through the co-operation of the following counties for state highway construction within their respective limits: Tehama ... $332,000 Colusa ... 241,000 Alameda ... 200,000 Orange ... 200,000 Ventura ... 150,000 Humboldt ... 150,000 Solano ... 150,000 Mendocino ... 150,000 San Benito ... 100,000 Shasta ... 83,000 Butte ... 75,000 Tuolomne ... 75,000 Kern ... 60,000 Siskiyou ... 50,000 Subscriptions aggregating more than $800,000 additional were received from state and banking sources. The total of the $18,000,000 voted in state highway bonds now disposed of is approximately $10,000,000, despite the fact that the 4 per cent bonds have not sold at par since October, 1912. Bids were opened March 30 by the California Highway Commission for construction of the following sections of the state highway: Humboldt county, grading 4½ miles from section 1 to the southerly boundary of the county; El Dorado county, 6½ miles of waterbound macadam between El Dorado and Placerville; Santa Clara county, surfacing 1.8 miles from San Jose south with asphaltic concrete; Merced county, 14 miles from Merced to the California Orange Boosters' Association came into life through the enthusiasm aroused and great results accomplished by California's first Orange Day held on March 21. The most prominent orange growers and business men of the Covina district met and decided that permanent concerted advertising of the golden fruit of California would bring big results and greater prosperity here. Orange growers and men in all walks of life, associations and public organizations were canvassed and it was found that the idea met with instant endorsement in every quarter. The Covina growers formed the first district of the association, which it is expected will reach every citrus city and community in California in carrying on the permanent work of California Orange Boosting. There are a number of proposals designed to benefit the California orange industry embodied in the by-laws. Chief among them is the elimination of cull fruit from the local market. Cull oranges which are of an inferior type and which at present form a considerable part of the trade in Los Angeles, being sold from peddlers' wagons, will not be permitted to be sold for table use if the California Orange Boosters carry out their plans. It is proposed to serve Los Angeles and all points in Southern California with the same high grade of fruit that is packed and sent East for distribution there. The California Orange Boosters propose to make every orange sold for table use count as a personal advertisement of the value of California world with his clothing municipal resources are available and industry.

Thus it is that the culture, who are capital and not infrequent their way through seek employment at in the future some work out by which these energetic and education require quiteite capital to enjoy brak in farming for the ever that is another incidentally related hand. It follows naturally been said that the development of employment bureau department of agriculture university of California is the same problem that business world in giving the job and the many graduates desire employ any immediate profit which they are expected frequently jobs are not properly fitted to abilities entailed. It is the state is spending money in educating future, it is important employment must be either at wages or in state's effort will be using this opportunity problem frankly with others interested to job and the man together with the least Graduates trained a more or less highly laborers.

The saving effected to automobile owners of California by construction of the state highway is far in excess of the motor vehicle tax, according to E. B. Waterman, of Fresno, one of the pioneer automobile owners of the state. After watching the continued use of the state highway near Fresno for nearly a year and making practical tests and comparisons with unimproved roads, as well as getting information from other parts of the state where the state highway is under traffic, Mr. Waterman has tabulated the average saving in operation of a car in daily use on the paved state highway over similar use on unimproved roads. He finds that this saving, counting in lessened cost of fuel used, greater life of tires and fewer replacements, will be at least $140 a year for the average car in daily use. This takes no account of depreciation. At a recent meeting of the California State Automobile Association Mr. Waterman submitted his analysis to a number of automobile owners from different parts of the state, and they pronounced it a conservative estimate of the operating saving possible by improved highways instead of good roads. Division engineers and department heads of the California Highway Commission were called to the headquarters at Sacramento for an interchange of experiences during the last week in March. Discussions on mountain roads, flood conditions prevailing during the past winter, results obtained from ex- Cull oranges which are of an inferior type and which at present form a considerable part of the trade in Los Angeles, being sold from peddlers' wagons, will not be permitted to be sold for table use if the California Orange Boosters carry out their plans. It is proposed to serve Los Angeles and all points in Southern California with the same high grade of fruit that is packed and sent East for distribution there. The California Orange Boosters propose to make every orange sold for table use count as a personal advertisement of the value of California oranges. It is proposed to handle the cull fruit through by-product stations. One of these has already been started in Southern California and is manufacturing orange juice and orange peel fertilizer from cull oranges. The headquarters of the parent association of the California Orange Boosters is to be in Los Angeles and from here will be carried on the campaign of permanent advertising in all forms that will reach the consumers of the fruit. It is proposed to send demonstrators throughout the country to show the chefs of all the leading hotels the various ways in which wonderful dishes may be made from California oranges. It is proposed to keep a steady stream of beautiful orange stickers going throughout the country and to all parts of the world on packages of every sort, on letters and on freight. The carton idea, that of packing miniature orange boxes with a dozen or more specimens of the finest fruit and encouraging their presentation to Easterners as gifts will be elaborated upon. A campaign of handsome postcard advertisement is also included in the plans and the slogan of California Orange Day, "Eat California Oranges and Smile," will be spread broadcast to every city and community in the United States. Books of recipes for viands made from California oranges to be mailed broadcast and other forms of effective advertising are part of the plan. The American Petroleum Company, operating on the C. L. McComber ranch at Buena Park, struck a good showing of oil at a depth of 1,500 feet. The operators have been greatly encouraged from this development. Should the well strike oil in commercial quantities it will prove up quite a large section. A recent graduate of agriculture is seldene a position at last year, and $1,000 to common.

There are five post-secondary seeking employment students in the farm also in the department many undergraduate desire summer employment about May 15.

If one may judge correspondence one as from incidents in the employment of graduates, there is not conception concerning and graduates, especially department of agriculture are not a race by which come out of your hand the hopes and aspirations gave them.

This question is discussed by Dean Thomas Forsyth Hunt of the College of Agriculture of the University of California in the following open letter to the people of California: Every young man is born into the world with his clothes off. His principal resources are character, ability, and industry. Even if he inherits money or property, usually it is not at the beginning of business life. As a general rule, to which there are numerous exceptions, the young man who takes a course in agriculture at the university cannot return to his father's farm because the father is there. Usually a farm is organized as a one-family enterprise. Unless the parents are ready to withdraw from the farm, ordinarily the son must push out from IN AND ABOUT COUNTY This County For Loquats Among the other numerous products grown in Orange county with better results than in any other part of the state is the loquat. This fruit, grown in this county, is earlier and of better quality than that raised in other districts of California, Imperial Valley not excepted. C. P. Taft, who owns a 14-acre loquat grove at Orange, has been shipping the fruit for the past six weeks. He has been receiving 18 cents per pound from the Los Angeles commission merchants. His crop this year will amount to about 100 tons. Mr. Taft is the originator of the Early Red variety. All the budded varieties found in the nurserymen's catalogue are the product of his experimentation and research. He has given the subject of loquat culture a great deal of thought and study and has found that the principal variety of the fruit he grows, the Early Red, is most successfully grown in the Olive, Villa Park, Orange and Tustin districts. The loquats grown in this territory are of excellent size and flavor. In the busy season Mr. Taft employs about 30 men to handle his crop. The product of his orchard will be practically all harvested by the latter part of May. The loquats are used for the same purposes as cherries and apples. The pies and jellies made from the fruit are delicious. La Habra Notes R. W. George has just purchased 17 acres of unimproved land from the Pacific Electric Company in La Habra Valley for $17,000. It is said George will at once begin the erection of a two-story brick building which will contain several store rooms. Another 11-acre place was sold in the east end of La Habra Valley yesterday to a newcomer from the East for $22,000. The tract is set to oranges and lemons and only a few years old, not one summoned medical aid or notified the authorities that an accident had occurred. One man, passing, noticed a hat, a buggy wheel, a whip, strewn along the road. He came to an overturned vehicle with a pair of limbs protruding from beneath. He was a kind-hearted man, and, horror stricken, he leaped from his automobile and rushed to the rescue. He seized the feet of the stricken one and pulled. Then he dropped them and they gave forth a hollow sound. A harsh, demoniac laugh echoed from the nearby orchard. The rescuer recollected that the date was April 1. Others came, and thrilled with horror, attempted to draw forth the silent form beneath the overturned buggy. Anon from the orchard came the harsh, demoniac laughter. The good Samaritans drew back and went their way. Suit to Recover A. N. Cox, with Clyde Bishop as attorney, brought suit Saturday against George S. Harper and the Harper Fruit Company. Cox alleges that Harper agreed to handle his oranges for 45 cents a box, and later said he had a buyer for them at 35 cents a packed box additional. Cox agreed to the sale and was paid $598.15 for 1,709 boxes. Cox declares that in fact Harper received $1,600 for the fruit, and Cox asks judgment for about $1,000. Spectacular Blaze Eight oil tanks of various sizes, located on the Orange lease and belonging to the Columbia Oil Producing Company, were destroyed by fire Tuesday morning, together with the oil which they contained. Workmen were repairing the roof of one of the tanks when the fire broke out, and it is thought that a spark caused by hammering a rivet ignited the oil in one of the tanks. The tanks were built closely together, only a few feet apart, and when one was aflaame nothing world with his clothes off. His principal resources are character, ability, and industry. Even if he inherits money or property, usually it is not at the beginning of business life. As a general rule, to which there are numerous exceptions, the young man who takes a course in agriculture at the university cannot return to his father's farm because the father is there. Usually a farm is organized as a one-family enterprise. Unless the parents are ready to withdraw from the farm, ordinarily the son must push out from the nest. Thus it is that the graduates in agriculture, who are normally without capital and not infrequently are working their way through college, must seek employment at wages. Doubtless, in the future some way will be worked out by which these young men of energy and education may secure the requisite capital to enable them to embark in farming for themselves. However, that is another story and is only incidentally related to the problem in hand. It follows naturally from what has been said that the department of agriculture is compelled to act as a sort of employment bureau. It is one of the most difficult problems with which the department of agriculture of the University of California has to deal. It is the same problem that exists in the business world in general of making the job and the man fit. Frequently graduates desire employment without any immediate prospect open for which they are especially fitted. More frequently jobs are open with no student properly fitted for the responsibilities entailed. It is obvious that if the state is spending large sums of money in educating its sons in agriculture, it is important that satisfactory employment must be found for them, either at wages or in business, or the state's effort will be wasted. I am taking this opportunity of discussing the problem frankly with ranchers and others interested to the end that the job and the man may be brought together with the least waste of effort. Graduates trained in agriculture are a more or less highly specialized group of laborers. They cannot go out on the street or country road and expect to secure employment on sight. Neither can the person or corporation seeking a suitably trained specialist always expect to find one ready for employment. Perhaps one of the most common requests is for a manager of a farm or ranch, who, the letter states, must be a married man of some years of successful practical experience. Ordinarily a college graduate does not marry until he has made good in some position or business. He is then no longer available for employment, especially at the salary that these letters often imply. A recent graduate of the college of agriculture is seldom required to accept a position at less than $900 per year, and $1,000 to $1,200 is not uncommon. Where graduates accept positions at a less salary it is usually because of the experience which the employment offers.

George has just purchased 17 acres of unimproved land from the Pacific Electric Company in La Habra Valley for $17,000. It is said George will at once begin the erection of a two-story brick building which will contain several store rooms. Another 11-acre place was sold in the east end of La Habra Valley yesterday to a newcomer from the East for $22,000. The tract is set to orange and lemons and only a few years ago it sold at about $60 an acre. The First Bank of La Habra has opened for business. The directors are John Leutwiler, H. E. Hart, J. C. Klupp, J. F. Condon, J. H. Walker, H. O. Price and John Leuhm. The officers being John Leuhm, president; J. C. Klupp, vice-president; J. H. Walker, cashier. Mr. Walker for a number of years was an active officer of the First National Bank of Plattsburg, Mo. The new institution has a capital stock of $25,000 and a surplus of $2,500. The deposits the first day far exceeded the expectation of the officers. Fire at Olinda About 10 o'clock Tuesday morning an alarm was turned in from Brea for a fire which had broken out in an oil tank on the Orange lease, a short distance the other side of Brea, which resulted in the loss of about $8,000 and the destruction of four 1,600-barrel tanks, one 500-barrel tank and three 100-barrel tanks. The origin of the fire is somewhat of a mystery, but it is thought it was caused by a spark from a hammer in the hands of one of two men who were driving rivets and doing other kinds of repair work about the tanks. The Fullerton department did not respond to the alarm, because the distance to the scene was so great that they could not get there in time to be of any service. Natural Gas The introduction of natural gas into the homes of Fullerton, took place Monday when it was turned into the mains, thus displacing the manufactured product, and reducing the price to the consumer almost half. Since that time the user has been busy adjusting and regulating the burners of their stoves for the use of the new commodity. Most stoves have air chambers which are used to regulate the gas, and in many cases any one can adjust these burners by opening or closing the air chambers until the required results are obtained. The city has been getting the 75c gas since the 2nd of March, and we hope that in a short time everybody will have their stoves adjusted and get the benefit of the natural gas.

Where graduates accept positions at a less salary it is usually because of the experience which the employment offers. Out of 67 seniors in agriculture 39 have placed applications on file in this office for employment. Presumably, therefore, 28 are already provided with employment. There are five post-graduate students seeking employment and ten third-year students in the farm school. There are also in the department of agriculture many undergraduates who, each year, desire summer employment, beginning about May 15. Some of these are men of experience in farming who are seeking the best wages which they may secure for the service rendered. Others are men who are without experience and hence will make the matter of wages a secondary consideration if the conditions are favorable for enlarging their agricultural horizon. If one may judge from some of the correspondence one receives, as well as from incidents in connection with the employment of agricultural graduates, there is not infrequently a misconception concerning college students and graduates, especially those of the department of agriculture. College men are not a race by themselves. They come out of your homes. They have the hopes and aspirations which you gave them. Their nature has not been changed by going to college. They differ from the average run of young men of the same age only in being the picked men of the state in ability, industry, education, and culture. They have not become mollycoddles. They can endure any kind of hard work and rather glory in privations, provided they are necessary worth while. They can survive where the uneducated fall, because in college they have been taught how to care for their bodies. It seems necessary to add that in none of these particulars can one distinguish a student who studies agriculture from those who study the classics, science, engineering, or law. They all look alike, act alike, and have the same general views of life. They are entitled to and expect to receive the treatment that is accorded to educated men. Want Drainage District Westminster is confronted with a drainage district proposition. The Bolsa district plan has proven such a success that the Westminster people wonder why the same plan may not be applied to their territory which adjoins that of Bolsa. So deep is the interest in the project that a committee has been constituted to look into the matter, cost boundaries and the like. These men are Dean Johnson, chairman; Harry Anderson, Wells McCoy, Thomas Hosack and Charlie Parr. The committee is taking pains to find out all the facts. One plan suggested would take in the territory extending about a mile north of Westminster and running to the ocean through the gun club lands. A distance of three-fourths of a mile south would reach to the northern boundary of the Bolsa district.

G. Batch, of Villa Park, shipped through the Orange County Vegetable Growers' Association, opened the 1914 season on green beans this week. This first sack, which was sent on its way to the outside markets, bring the bean season in about three weeks earlier than last year, when the first sack of beans was shipped April 15. What prices the beans will bring is not known; but it is expected to be very good, as the shipment went to a northern house where the market is strong.
