FORTY-SEVENTH FRUIT GROWER'S CONVENTION The 47th State Fruit Growers' Convention will be held in Visalia on November 18, 19 and 20. A half day during this time will be given to an automobile trip through the fruit growing sections of Tulare county, and delegates will have a chance to note the recent remarkable growth of the citrus industry. Great plans are already being made by fruit growers of that section, and if the interest which is being displayed by prominent orchardists in Tulare county is any criterion, the convention will be a large and profitable gathering. On September 29th a meeting was held in Visalia and representatives were present from the following places: Porterville, Exeter, Dinuba, Lindsay and Ducor. A local organization was formed for the purpose of making all plans for the convention, and committees were appointed on program, and arrangements and advertising. The committee on program consists of the following well known fruit growers: W. P. Bartlett, Porterville; C. F. Collins, Visalla; A. C. Merryman, Exeter; Thos. Jacobs, Visalla; W. E. Sprott, Porterville; J. K. Tuttle, Visalla; Frank Daybell, Ducor; C. K. Towt, Lindsay; C. B. Earlhart, Dinuba; and E. Barris, Dinuba. These men will be largely responsible for the topics discussed. Much time will be given to marketing problems, and already Colonel Harris Weinstock has consented to load in a discussion of rural credits. The women will have a session of their own, under the supervision of Miss Lillian D. Clark, of the University of California. Home economics topics will be discussed in these sessions, which should prove of great interest to all women attending the convention. For two days previous to the general fruit growers' convention the county horticultural commissioners hold meetings of their own, and a program is now being arranged by them.

STATE MINING BUREAU ISSUES INSTRUCTIONS Oil and Gas Companies Must Make Regular Reports R. P. McLaughlin, state oil and gas supervisor, has issued the following statement to oil and gas companies operating in the state: Before starting work on any oil or gas well in California, notice must be given to the department of petroleum and gas of the state mining bureau. CONGRESSIONAL LAWS HAVE BEEN TRIED AND FOUND WANTING As the time for congress to reassemble approaches, this fact is being gradually disclosed by the administration itself. In nearly every department in Washington, government officials are preparing amendments to patch up defects in statutes. These defects exist because the methods followed in the enactment of the statutes were slovenly and careless to the last degree. Another problem facing the administration, or even more serious than that of defective laws, is that of the government's finances. There has been a growing discrepancy between receipts and expenditures, creating a deficit in the terasury that must be porvided for. Government funds have been wasted, and a large proportion of this waste is due to carelessness by congress in handling appropriations. Articles have heretofore appeared giving a few typical examples of how this waste has occurred. These articles might be continued indefinitely. Enough has been said, however to illustrate the wasteful, inefficient principle that has vitiated the entire democratic regime. A recapitulation of the latter articles, is given herewith. They will be followed later by additional descriptions of democratic mistakes: Millions of dollars worth of the nation's timber supply jeopardized. The integrity of the law taxing cotton future sales is in doubt, and must be teted in court. As business managers the democrats have been utter failures, their methods of enacting appropriation bills causing enormous waste. The rural free delivery service has consulted to lead in a discussion of rural credits. The women will have a session of their own, under the supervision of Miss Lillian D. Clark, of the University of California. Home economics topics will be discussed in these sessions, which should prove of great interest to all women attending the convention. For two days previous to the general fruit growers' convention the county horticultural commissioners hold meetings of their own, and a program is now being arranged by them. A complete program for all meetings will be printed in the October Monthly Bulletin of the state commission of horticulture.

P. McLaughlin, state oil and gas supervisor, has issued the following statement to oil and gas companies operating in the state: Before starting work on any oil or gas well in California, notice must be given to the department of petroleum and gas of the state mining bureau. Operations are divided into four classes, as follows. Starting to drill new well. Testing of water shut off. (Five days' notice) Deepening or redrilling an old well. (Fifteen days' notice) Abandonment of a well. (Fifteen days' notice) The notice must be in writing and given to the deputy supervisor in charge of the field where the well is located. The deputies, their addresses, and the fields over which they have charge are as follows: M. J. Kirwan, Coalinga, Calif. Coalinga, Lost Hills and Belridge fields in Fresno and Kern counties, together with all outlaying territory to the north and west. Chester Naramore, Taft, Calif. Midway, Sunset, Kern River and McKittrick fields in Kern county. E. B. Latham, Santa Maria, Calif. Santa Maria, Lompoc and Cat Canon fields in Santa Barbara county, and the Simi field in Ventura county. Robert B. Moran, 208 Union League Bldg., Los Angeles, Calif. Whittier, Fullerton, Brea Canon, Coyote Hills, Puente and Salt Lake fields in Los Angeles and Orange counties, and all of Ventura county, except the Simi field, together with all outlaying territory to the south and east. Logs of all wells and monthly reports of their production of oil and water will also be required. The deputies will furnish all necessary blank forms and explain, in detail, any portion of our work. All the information requested by this department is absolutely necessary in dealing with the water problem and should already be in the private records of every promoter. Miss Ardis Johnson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene B. Johnson of South Clementine street, and George Edward Chambers, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Chambers, of this city were married at the home of the brides parents on Wednesday of last week, Rev. F. W. Mitchell of the Presbyterian church officiating. Miss Anita Willets of Orange, was the bridesmaid and the groom was attended by Earl Johnson, brother of the bride. A wedding luncheon was served. After a short honeymoon the newly wedded couple will return to Anaheim to reside. Millions of dollars worth of the nation's timber supply jeopardized. The integrity of the law taxing cotton future sales is in doubt, and must be tested in court. As business managers the democrats have been utter failures, their methods of enacting appropriation bills causing enormous waste. The rural free delivery service has been shamefully crippled. The construction of good roads by governmental aid was delayed a year, and much of the appropriation absolutely lost. Important surveys of Alaska mineral resources were prevented for two successive years. Prevention of epidemics of tuberculosis and trachoma among Indian tribes and adjacent communities delayed a year. Civil war veterans died in want through needless errors in special pension laws. Over ten million dollars lost in one appropriation bill alone through needless delay in its enactment; enough lost in four years of similar democratic delays to more than cover the present treasury deficit.

There will be 250 boys there to represent 55 out of the 65 boys' clubs organized by the University of California. The boys' clubs which have sprung up all over the country are bringing about an astonishing revolution in the improvement of farming methods. Nowhere are greater contributions to the prosperity of the community being made by the boys' clubs than in California, for the prize-winners and their close competitors are giving to their neighborhoods example of how to improve the yield and the profit of California farms which often make their elders' eyes stick out of their heads with surprise and admiration. best dairy herds in America; in Kentucky, Tennessee and elsewhere in the south they are to see the finest examples of rice, sugar and cotton plantations, and in Texas they will visit a famous cattle ranch. JEWISH STUDENTS AIDED BY NATHAN'S BEQUEST A New Endowed Scholarship at the University of California Students of Jewish parentage are to have particular consideration in the yearly award of a new endowed scholarship in the University of California. This is the Barnard Nathan scholarship, to endow which $5000 has been bequeathed by Bernard Nathan, the pioneer California merchant, who died recently in Dresden, Germany, at the age of 82. It was in the 'fifties that Mr. Nathan, a native of Gluckstadt, Germany, first came to California. He established himself in San Francisco in a crockery business which was the beginning of the present Nathan-Dohrmann company, now a great firm with branches in many Pacific coast cities and in the Hawaiian Islands. In 1883 Mr. Nathan returned to his native land, to open European offices for his company. In the 32 years since then, Mr. Nathan had made his home in Dresden, save that he spent 1899 and 1900 in San Francisco. During his lifetime he joined with the late F. W. Dohrmann, (long a regent in the university) in the establishment of a relief and pension fund for their employees and in many other undertakings which were a model of modern ideas in the relations of employer and employee. Throughout his lifetime he contributed generously to many public causes. His bequests to California educational and beneficial institutions amount to $50,000, and he bequeathed a hundred thousand marks to similar institutions in Germany.

The feat of raising on a quarter of an acre of land as many bushels of potatoes as the average California yield for a whole acre was accomplished by Ralph Weaver, a member of the San Jose Boys' club. On a quarter of an acre of land he raised 126 bushels of potatoes, or four times as heavy a yield as the average for California potato growers, Corlis Wilkinson of Riverside on a half acre raised 167 bushels of potatoes, which is at the rate of 334 bushels per acre. Clairborne White of the high school agriculture club of Stockton raised 3530 pounds of American Wonder potatoes an quarter of an acre and made a net profit of $36.13. Roy Huffman of Chico raised 5390 pounds of potatoes on a quarter of an acre, and Ralph Parker of Lockford, winner of the Lodi high school contest, made a profit of $30.05 by raising 1960 pounds of potatoes on one-eighth of an acre. To feed four pigs so scientifically that in one particular ten days they made an average gain of 30.4 pounds each, or three pounds a day, was the achievement of Oscar Dimwick, the prize winner of the club at Lemore, Kings county. Bryce Sherman of Tulare made $28.26 net by bringing his four pure-bred Duroc Jersey pigs in ninety days from a weight of 220 pounds to a weight of 817 pounds—or a gain of 597 pounds in three months. Pig raising has been the most popular contest in California this year, but some of the boys' clubs have contested in the growing of corn, tomatoes, popcorn, milomalee, beans, mixed vegetable gardening, and raising numerous other typical California crops. A great event of the convention at the farm is to be a symposium in which the prize winner from each club will make a three-minute speech telling how he raised his crop and why it beat what the neighbors do.

CHEAP GASOLINE Perfection of a process whereby 100 gallons of crude oil will yield 100 gallons of a kind of gasoline 50 per cent more efficient than the present grade, is the announcement of W. H. Stevens, for many years an employee of the St. Louis Water company. Stevens, after experimenting for three years to find a substitute for gasoline, has obtained a patent on his process. He is negotiating with the Standard Oil company for the sale of his patent and the formula of chemicals used in his process. The process, Stevens says, is not simple, but is very economical and can produce gasoline at a cost of three cents a gallon. He has tried his substitute gasoline in a number of cars, and claims that a car which runs 12 miles on a gallon of gasoline will run 18 miles on his substitute. At present independent oil producers are able to get but one gallon of gasoline from four gallons of crude oil by distillation. Drs.

The 250 boys are to camp at the farm in state militia tents, the president of each club serving as corporal for his club, and one student of the farm school serving as captain for every three clubs. The boys will hold competition in judging pigs and dairy cows. They will be shown how to vaccinate swine so as to protect them against hog cholera, and how to test cattle for tuberculosis. Improved methods of pruning will be demonstrated. There will be a stereopticon lecture on soil formation. There will be baseball and football games, races, a pushball game, a tug-of-war, bonfires, musical programs, swimming, and all manner of student stunts, arranged by the 'arm for the entertainment of its guests. A special train will convey the delegates, on Saturday morning, October 16, to San Francisco, and there the little army will visit the great exposition sights. The prize winners, from 35 of the clubs are then to go to the university and be entertained that night at various fraternity houses. On October 17 35 of those boys who by their skill in the crop contest have won the prize of a trip east will board their special car for a month's journey across the continent, under the leadership of B. H. Crocheron, assistant professor of agricultural extension, and R. M. Hagen, his assistant. On each day of their journey they will be given opportunity to see examples of the most successful achievements in farming of the regions through which they pass. While in New England, for instance, they are to see the three vegetable gardening, and raising numerous other typical California crops.
