WORK OF CITRUS PROTECTIVE LEAGUE
STATE OF WORK ACCOMPLISHED BY THE ORGANIZATION DURING PAST FEW YEARS
SECURED THE $1 FREIGHT RATE ON LEMONS, SAVED ORANGE GROWERS MILLIONS
The Citrus Protective League of California has just issued a statement showing the effective work of that organization in the interest of the citrus growers of the state.
During the past few months many inquiries have been received and a great deal of interest has been manifested in the work of the league. It is therefore thought desirable at this time to bring together a statement showing the nature of the work accomplished and the benefits which the industry has derived from this organization. The distribution by the league on May 4th of this year of the trust fund on lemons shipped by members of the league from December 5, 1909, to November 20, 1911, representing the attempted advance of 15 cents per hundred in the freight rate on lemons to the east, makes this an appropriate time for the summing up of the league work.
The Citrus Protective League, in the eight years that it has been organized, has been the instrument by which the citrus fruit growers of California have been enabled to accomplish certain definite benefits to themselves which it would have been impossible for individual growers or marketing organizations to obtain. These results have been accomplished through the voluntary co-operation of its members who have given their time and experience without charge in order that the industry as a whole might benefit.
The results accomplished, hereinafter summarized, have been the incen-
The Citrus Protective League, in the eight years that it has been organized, has been the instrument by which the citrus fruit growers of California have been enabled to accomplish certain definite benefits to themselves which it would have been impossible for individual growers or marketing organizations to obtain. These results have been accomplished through the voluntary co-operation of its members who have given their time and experience without charge in order that the industry as a whole might benefit.
The results accomplished, hereinafter summarized, have been the incentive for the establishment of a similar organization in Florida, a projected organization of apple growers in the northwest, of fruit growers and shippers in Alabama, and of deciduous fruit growers and shippers in Northern California.
The interest of the individual grower in maintaining and supporting the Citrus Protective League has been the basis for its organization and continuance. Without this support the league could not have brought about the results that have been accomplished.
On February 26, 1907, the railroads, through the efforts of the Citrus Protective League, reduced the freight rate on oranges from $1.25 to $1.15 per hundred to the territory covered by the present Transcontinental Freight Bureau Tariffs. The total gain to the orange industry from this reduction has been about $6,172,000 to April 1, 1914. The reduction in the rate represents a saving of 7.2 cents on each packed box of oranges shipped into that territory, or $28.51 per car of 396 boxes, and represents an annual gain to the industry of about $1,000,000 on a normal crop of oranges.
On July 5, 1909, the railroads changed the refrigeration tariffs and allowed 32,000 pounds of fruit to be shipped in a 40-foot car at the same rate per car for refrigeration as applied before on 27,650 pounds. The saving to the citrus industry from this change is estimated at $138,000 to December 31, 1913, and on a normal crop effects a yearly gain of $50,000 to the industry.
By order of the Interstate Commerce Commission enjoining the attempted advance in the lemon rate, which order was secured through the league, the lemon grower has been assured the continuance of the $1 rate on lemons. The enforcement of this order was contested by the railroads in various courts and finally in the supreme court of the United States and there again decided in favor of the grower.
On May 4, 1914, the league made distribution of $408,680.43, representing the principal and interest on money deposited in trust by lemon shippers pending the final outcome of the suit. The shipments included in this amount were made by members of the league between December 5, 1909, and November 20, 1911. There is yet in the hands of the railroads 15 cents per hundred on all lemons shipped from November 21, 1911, to February 15, 1912, to eastern territory. Reparation has also been awarded to the shippers on these shipments by the commission subject to certain conditions.
It is estimated that the total gain to the citrus industry from this contest provides a rate of 35 cents per box on imports of citrus fruits and represents a reduction of approximately 2-3 in the rate of duty imposed on imports of lemons and½ on imports of oranges. The rate on½ boxes, etc., is proportionate to the standard box rate.
Other Questions
Immediately after the cold weather in 1913 the league took steps to have a regulation issued by the food and drugs board of the United States department of agriculture for the shipper's guidance in grading frosted fruit and also to prevent chaotic conditions in the eastern markets resulting from varying standards in different cities and states. The board issued food inspection decision No. 150 under date of January 28, 1913, defining the character of frosted fruit which could be shipped in interstate commerce.
In 1909 the league made it possible for the state commission of horticulture to wage a campaign for the eradication of the white fly from the state by paying the bills as they were incurred, the state treasury at that time having no funds with which to bear the expenses. The legislature later reimbursed the league for the money so expended.
In the spring of 1911 the league secured the co-operation of the United States department of agriculture in making a survey of the methods of handling the fruit and keeping quality of the fruit when handled in different ways. As a result of this investigation the methods of handling the fruit in the groves and packing houses were improved and a large amount of loss avoided.

There is yet in the hands of the railroads 15 cents per hundred on all lemons shipped from November 21, 1911, to February 15, 1912, to eastern territory. Reparation has also been awarded to the shippers on these shipments by the commission subject to certain conditions.
It is estimated that the total gain to the citrus industry from this contest, when all refunds have been made, will amount to $845,000 on the lemons shipped during the three and one-half years from December, 1909, to March, 1914, inclusive. The saving amounts to $47.38 per car on the present loading and amounts to a total of $250,000 in a normal year.
The so-called precooling case, which was commenced before the Interstate Commerce Commission at the same time as the lemon rate case, was decided in favor of the industry by the United States supreme court on January 26, 1914. The ruling of the Interstate Commerce Commission, which was upheld by the supreme court, gives to the shipper the right to pre-cool cars of oranges and pre-ice them, sending them forward with instructions not to re-ice in transit, at a rate of $7.50 per car.
It is estimated that the saving to the industry under this rate will amount to an average of about $22.50 per car on oranges shipped in this manner, and, as additional plants are constructed and greater use is made of the plants now built, this reduced rate will return a large amount of money to the growers which formerly was paid for refrigeration.

TETZLAFF TO DRIVE MAXWELL CAR
California Boy Has Transferred His Love to the American Racer
Teddy Tetzlaff, holder of the world's record in road races, is to drive a Maxwell at the Indianapolis races. The last cars he drove were the Fiat and Isotta, both Italian make, but he has now transferred his 'allegiance to an American car.
Tetzlaff has earned the sobriquet of "Wild Teddy" owing to the reckless abandon with which he drives a car. In almost every event, in which he has failed to prove the winner, he has been in the lead when he retired from the event, owing to the severe manner in which he has driven his cars. He led both Vanderbilt cup race and the Grand Prix races at Milwaukee when he was retired, and the same applied at Tacoma and Santa Monica this year.
This practically completes the personelle of the Maxwell team, which now has two Californians at the wheel, Tetzlaff and Carlson.
Tetzlaff is expected to reach Indian-

Valuable Oil Lands in Court
A number of Tustin residents are interested in a case in which Josephine M. Hanna, et al., are plaintiffs against Charles Moline, R. E. Swing, F. O. Stutsman, A. H. Stutsman, Jr., G. B. Prather and others, and it concerns title to valuable oil lands near Yorba Linda. The answer states that the plaintiffs have no title. It is asserted that the plaintiffs base their claims upon locations of school lands in lieu of other lands. The defendants declare that in its grant of public lands to the state, the United States specified that mineral lands should not be subject to the state's authority for deeding. Because the land is mineral land, the defendants assert that title secured through the state is void, and that the locations put upon the land by the Tustin people and their associates in recent years gives them title to the land under the federal law.
Banks Refuse School Warrants
Acting on legal advice, the banks of Santa Ana have declined to cash warrants issued by the Santa Ana school board. The banks hold that with the present condition of the school funds, the banks in cashing the warrants might have to wait a year before they could get their money. In other words they would be loaning money without interest, and depending upon certain conditions of retrenchment being carried out, in order to leave a balance in the treasury about a year from now with which to pay warrants issued during the fiscal year. Every effort is being made by the school authorities to straighten the difficulties out, but the job is no small one.
May and June warrants for teaching are still to come. County Superintendent of Schools Mitchell has not yet received an opinion from the district attorney, but Mitchell is satisfied that his attitude is in accordance with the law. He holds that he cannot pay warrants issued this fiscal year, after funds are overdrawn, until after school has been conducted for eight months in the next fiscal year. One exception to that rule may be made, and that is the persuasion of the county authorities that there will be money enough at the end of the eight months with which to pay the warrants.

MALICIOUS MISCHIEF
Malice of an unusual type is believed to have been behind an outrage perpetrated at the expense of B. F. Clouser Tuesday night, when some one dumped a quantity of clippings of young orange trees, lousy with red spider, in his orchard on West Chapman avenue.
Mr. Clouser, who recently sold his ranch near Anaheim, completed the deal Tuesday for the purchase of the E. J. Brown ranch on West Chapman avenue, just outside the city limits of Orange. The place is a 10-acre orchard of young bearing Valencias, among the best trees in that section.
Wednesday morning six piles of shoots from young trees were found dumped about the orchard. Examination showed that the clippings were well populated by the red spider—a pest much dreaded by orange growers. There was not a trace of evidence to connect anyone with the act.
Where the clippings came from is unknown. The red spider is not common in this section, and there are very few orchards as badly affected as the clippings indicated.
Marshal Crawshaw was called upon and made an investigation of the affair.
SANTA FE DOUBLE TRACK
Preliminary to the double tracking of the Santa Fe main line between Los Angeles and San Diego, sidings and passing tracks are to be built at once and the second track work after that will largely be a matter of joining the gaps along the line.
On the third and fourth districts a dozen passing tracks are planned and it is understood that construction is to be completed this summer. When the work is finished there will be constructed about seven miles of second track. Much of the work will be extending the present sidings and tracks at stations to the standard length of 3,000 feet. The work will cost in the neighborhood of $350,000.
The double track has already been completed between La Grande station in Los Angeles and Redondo Junction, a distance of about one and a half miles.
Demand Full Weight
The new ordinance regulating the weight of boxes of berries went into effect at Santa Ana Thursday. Ordinary boxes of raspberries must weigh eight ounces and blackberries and strawberries must tip the beam at twelve ounces. It would have relieved the merchants of considerable trouble had the ordinance been drawn so that the growers as well as the storekeepers would be held responsible for the weight. However, the gardeners seem to be trying to protect the merchants, but under provisions of the ordinance the latter cannot afford to take all the chances, and so must weigh each box separately.
Reorganizing Forces
Chief Engineer S. H. Finley of the county highway commission, has reorganized his field and office forces so that he is confident that a great deal more work can be done without increasing the number of employees. The work formerly done by the assistant chief engineer is divided between W. W. Hoy, who is given the title of assistant chief engineer and who does the work of division engineer with oversight of all roads built east and south of the Santa Ana river, and George R. Wells, who has been head of the drafting corps, but is now designated as office engineer. Whenever possible a field engineer will do the work formerly done by the field engineer and an inspector. Finley has been chief engineer about three weeks.
Under His Mother's Wing
Justice Cox of Santa Ana hit upon a method that he thinks will prove effective in cases of youths who are disposed to speed their automobiles. He is going to try out the scheme upon Manson Rouse, aged 16, of No. 2040 North Broadway. Cox ordered that hereafter Rouse must not drive any automobile unless his mother is with him. Officers were instructed to keep a watch upon Rouse, and should be found driving an automobile in violation of that order, the justice will suspend Rouse's operator's license. He paid a fine of $10 for crowding a motorcycle and automobile off of a paved road while he was going about 35 miles an hour.
Gretna Green a Back Number
Four hundred marriage licenses have been issued by the county clerk one May and June warrants for teaching are still to come. County Superintendent of Schools Mitchell has not yet received an opinion from the district attorney, but Mitchell is satisfied that his attitude is in accordance with the law. He holds that he cannot pay warrants issued this fiscal year, after funds are overdrawn, until after school has been conducted for eight months in the next fiscal year. One exception to that rule may be made, and that is the persuasion of the county authorities that there will be money enough at the end of the eight months with which to pay the warrants. For instance, if the people vote a special tax to raise the money to meet the overdrafts, and the money is thus legally assured, the warrants will be paid.

SCENIC FOREST TO BE PRESERVED
On May 13 President Wilson signed a bill authorizing the exchange of certain described private lands in the Sierra National Forest and the Yosemite Park for national forest lands, also described, of approximately equal value.
This is the outcome of negotiations between the forest service and the Madera Sugar Pine Company started in August, 1913. The objects to be effected were, from the viewpoint of the public, two-fold: to preserve a strip of uncut timber along the road from Wawona to the summit of Signal Peak and by so doing maintain this popular side trip as a scenic forest drive, and to secure clear title to the United States of the timber in several small logging units which eventually will be utilized in connection with the agricultural development of the foothill region adjoining.
The forest service appraised the values of the timber after a thorough cruise and study of the logging conditions on the ground. Approximately 2,453 acres of company land will be traded for 2,468 acres of government land. The company's land carries 119,-875,000 board feet of timber worth $433,187; the government's, 121,757,000 board feet worth $433,172.

Four hundred marriage licenses have been issued by the county clerk since the first day of February. This pretty nearly establishes a record, and proves beyond the cavil of a doubt that Santa Ana is the most popular place in the state in which to make a start in married life, and also that it has justices of the peace and ministers of the gospel who know how to tie the nuptial knot in such pleasing manner that those who have received these courtesies at their hands are sure to tell all their friends, and it is an old axiom in business that "A pleased customer is the best advertisement," next to a good newspaper.
Orange County Day
Replies to circulars sent out by the Associated Chambers of Commerce in regard to a suitable date for Orange County Day are to the effect that June 11 will be too near a number of other events to make a good attendance likely. The Pier Day celebration will be held at Huntington Beach June 20. The beach people are of the opinion that were Orange County Day held June 11 the turn outs for both events would be less than if the county day were held on a date considerably later than that scheduled for Pied Day. On Orange County Day it is proposed to visit various cities of the county in automobiles.

was avoided only by his quick action in getting as far as possible out of the way of a heavier car going at a faster speed. Mr. and Mrs. Gottstein of San Diego, in the other car, met Orton on the road between Anaheim and Orange. A wagon and team was in front of Gottstein's car, and, in turning out to pass the team, Mrs. Gottstein at the wheel took the wrong side of the road just as Orton also turned out to pass the wagon. A rear wheel, cut from Orton's machine, was hurled a distance of 40 feet by the impact; but he was driving at a slow speed and only a slight shock was felt by his passengers, none of whom were injured. He telephoned from a residence near the scene of the accident, and a truck went out from Fullerton and took the injured auto and its passengers back to town. Mr. Gottstein assumed the responsibility, stating that, when his wife slowed up behind the wagon, he advised her to go ahead at full speed, believing she could pass the rig in time to avoid collision. Their address, with the name and number of their car, was given to Orton.
A Heavy Bean Crop
The Villa Park Vegetable Growers' Association has shipped over 500 sacks of green and yellow beans since the opening of the season, March 11. The beans ar going forward now at the rate of 40 or 50 sacks daily and are bringing a price of from 10 to 12½ cents per pound. Bell peppers are still moving at the rate of about half a ton daily and are bringing from $15 to $20 per crate. Various other vegetables are being shipped in smaller quantities.

To Adjust Differences
The R. W. Elliot Water Company and the patrons of its system at Garden Grove have some differences which have been referred to the State Railway Commission for adjustment. There will be a public hearing in the Y. M. C. A. building on Saturday, June 6, before Commissioner Thelen. The trouble has arisen over rates and the demand on the part of the people for improvements. As it stands the company has no charter or franchise and does not feel like spending money on improvements unless it can be secured in some way against loss. The company contends that the consumers are getting more water than they pay for in many cases by using donfestic privileges for irrigating gardens on vacant lots, etc. The commission has been called upon to adjust the rates. The company has never applied for a franchise under the county provision, but it is said it may do so.
ANSWER TO COMPLAINT
Defendant makes answer to the complaints filed against him by M. E. Baldwin and Jessie Stone in the cases of these young people against Joe Wilkes of Santa Ana for damages sustained by them in an accident, which they allege has incapacitated them from ever being in good health again. Baldwin is suing Mr. Wilkes for $28,-500, while Miss Stone, more modest in her claims, merely wants $10,250. The answers to the complaints sets forth general denial of all the allegations made by plaintiffs, and the defendant prays that the plaintiffs get nothing by the actions, and asks for his costs.
