MINERAL OUTPUT OF CALIFORNIA IN 1914 TOTAL VALUE OF PRODUCTION OF METAL, OIL AND GAS IS $93,436,553 PETROLEUM LEADS ALL OTHERS WITH A PRODUCT OF NEARLY FIFTY MILLIONS Mineral production in California during the year 1914 amounted to $93,436,553 worth of crude materials. There were forty-two different mineral substances, and of the fifty-eight counties in the state all but two contributed some mineral product. The total value was less than that of 1913 by $5,208,086, owing to the general depression in business. Demand for mineral product varies with activity in other lines of industry. The mineral products which fell off most from the preceding year were petroleum, cement, copper, and stone of various sorts. The decrease in price of oil caused its decline in total value, though there was an increase in the amount produced. The other three products fell off in amount as well as value. The figures of the State Mining Bureau are made up from reports made by the producers of the various minerals. Care is exercised in avoiding duplication, and any error is doubtless upon the side of under-estimation. It would be folly to attempt to set a limit of maximum mineral production for California, because the mineral resources are so extensive and have been so slightly developed many lines. The most important mineral products of California are its fuels. This subdivision includes coal, natural gas and petroleum, the combined values of which make up approximately 50 per cent of the state's entire mineral posing of it at a discount. As in most line of human endeavor, some operators have entered the oil business with more thought and preparation for the future than have others. The total value of metals produced in California during 1914 was $28,605,533. The chief of these is gold, followed in order by copper, silver, quicksilver, lead, tungsten, zinc, platinum and iron. Deposits of ores of antimony, molybdenum and vanadium are also to be found in the state, although in 1914 there was no commercial output of these materials. California leads all states in the Union in her gold production and the precious metal is widely distributed throughout the state. Thirty-two of the 58 counties contain actively operated gold mines. Copper; which is second in importance among the metals of the state, occurs in the following districts: the Shasta county belt; the Coast Range; the Sierra Nevada foothill belt; the eastern belt in Mono and Inyo counties and the southern belt in San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego counties. Silver is not generally found alone in the state, but is almost invariably associated to a greater or less extent with gold, copper and lead. Quicksilver, while comparatively small in the value of its annual output, has for many years been one of the state's staple products and California supplies about 80 per cent of the nation's output of this metal. Tungsten likewise is found in but few other localities. Large deposits of iron ore have long been known in many sections of the state, but for various economic reasons this branch of the mineral industry is still in its infancy here. SEAL BEACH DECIDES FOR INCORPORATION 84 to 14 Was the Vote Cast at Tuesday's Election Seal Beach voted to incorporate last Tuesday by a vote of 84 to 14. The opposition vote was surprisingly small considering the fight that was waged against the proposition. Judge John C. Ord was elected mayor with a total of 98 votes.

Care is exercised in avoiding duplication, and any error is doubtless upon the side of under-estimation. It would be folly to attempt to set a limit of maximum mineral production for California, because the mineral resources are so extensive and have been so slightly developed along many lines. The most important mineral products of California are its fuels. This subdivision includes coal, natural gas and petroleum, the combined values of which make up approximately 50 per cent of the state's entire mineral industry. Coal has been produced in California since early as 1860, but the quality is not high, most of it being lignite. In competition with fuel oil, coal of all grades has had to give way, and the low-grade domestic product has suffered severely. During 1914, there was a production reported from Amador, Contra Costa, Monterey and Siskiyou counties, totaling 11,859 tons, worth $28,806, most of it, however, coming from Amador and Monterey counties. Statistics on the production of natural gas in California are but little better than a guess. The figures given are certainly far below the actual production, particularly in the six oil producing counties. It is an exceptional oil property where gas in some quantity does not occur. Many oil producing concerns make no mention of their gas, because they have no method of measuring it, and it is so widely used in the oil fields that it is frequently as lightly regarded as sunshine or fresh air. Doubtless, considerable gas is wasted, but a sweeping condemnation of operators should not be indulged in. It must be remembered that several of our important oil fields are removed many miles from the site of any other industry, and that the gathering of small amounts of gas and transporting it for any considerable distance, may not always be profitable. However, it is undoubtedly a fact that greater saving can frequently be made with profit. Gas traps of various size and design are coming into more frequent use. Some large operators are making commendable efforts to conserve the gas which accompanies oil and is richer than the so-called dry gas occurring in states which do not produce oil. It will be noted that several counties produce gas which is not accompanied by oil. The value of gas is open to considerable question. The average price is about 60 per 1000 cubic feet. Seven thousand cubic feet of gas is about equal to one barrel of oil in heading value, and is so accounted for by many operators. Chief of the fuels of California is petroleum. In preparing the statistics for the year 1914, several sources of information were available for comparison and use. Several marketing concerns issue carefully prepared monthly statements of gross producibility. SEAL BEACH DECIDES FOR INCORPORATION 84 to 14 Was the Vote Cast at Tuesday's Election Seal Beach voted to incorporate last Tuesday by a vote of 84 to 14. The opposition vote was surprisingly small considering the fight that was waged against the proposition. Judge John C. Ord was elected mayor with a total of 98 votes. Other city officials elected and the votes cast for each are as follows: Trustees—James H. Blagge, 78; Herman J. Elchborn, 71; Clarence A. Little, 79; Harry G. Magie, 76. City Clerk—Arthur L. Havens, 75. City Treasurer—Millet H. Snow, 80. At the eleventh hour, the anti-incorporationists put a ticket in the field. Judge Ord was named on both tickets for trustee. Other trustees on the opposition ticket was Ira D. Patterson, 18 votes; Delbert C. Reader, 20; Robert D. Richards, 18; Merrill L. Russell, 20; W. Floyd Stevens, with 18 votes, was the defeated candidate for city clerk, and Julia E. Herbst, with 19 votes, was defeated for city treasurer. Although a spirited fight was made against incorporation, principally by those who claimed the town would be made wet by the original incorporationists, sentiment was overwhelmingly in favor of a municipality, and the Robert D. Armstrong Company owners of the townsite, planned for a big celebration in honor of the event. Following an hour of music and dancing, the party in attendance, 500 in number, repaired to the large dining room, set for the occasion, and partook of a sumptuous banquet, almost every article of which was grown and prepared in Seal Beach. Following the banquet, short talks were given by the new mayor, J. C. Ord, Robert D. Armstrong, R. Z. Adams, P. A. Stanton and J. C. Burke, all bubbling over with enthusiasm regarding the future of this newest city. J. H. May, of Seal Beach, was Generalissimo of the celebration, and presided at the meeting. The slogan "20,00 people in Seal Beach by 1920," was adopted. A display of fireworks and a huge bonfire rounded out the celebration. Orange county now has eight incorporated cities. They are Anaheim, Santa Ana, Orange, Fullerton, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Stanton and Seal Beach. With Brea and Placentia talking of incorporation, it is likely that within a short time other towns will be added to Orange county's growing family of municipalities. MILITARY TRAINING IN HIGH SCHOOLS OF STATE Teachers Will be Provided Out of the State Fund California is to provide military instruction as a part of the public high school course, according to an annual report by feeding purposes and heavy but much stained by rains after inducing the quality for agriculture. The apple forecasts... The value of gas is open to considerable question. The average price is about 60 per 1000 cubic feet. Seven thousand cubic feet of gas is about equal to one barrel of oil in heading value, and is so accounted for by many operators. Chief of the fuels of California is petroleum. In preparing the statistics for the year 1914, several sources of information were available for comparison and use. Several marketing concerns issue carefully prepared monthly statements of gross production in each field, and this department gathers figures on price and other matters, directly from oil producers. The figures given on gross production and monthly operations, are largely those published by the Independent Oil Producers Agency, and the figures showing well operation by fields are from the Standard Oil company. Segregation of figures by counties can be made directly from field reports in all cases except for Los Angeles and Orange counties, where the fields cross county lines. Figures on price are open to some question, as it must be remembered that a large portion of the oil does not enter the open market, but is consumed or refined directly by the producers. The business of producing oil is not so profitable as it should be. Many operators continue to drill wells when there is not a great demand, and the overproduction, of course, depresses the price. Just profits and stable conditions are more nearly assured to the producer who is able to refine and retail his product. Realization of this fact is apt to lead to the formation of larger and stronger business units in the future. Doubless, undue obstacles will not be placed in the way of such changes, if they are carried out with reasonable regard to public welfare. The fact can not be too strongly emphasized that our oil resources are far from inexhaustible, and that needless production hastens the day when we shall stand stripped of one of our most valuable assets. Raising oil from the ground and selling it at a price too low to return the invested capital with interest, is about the same as drawing gold from a savings account and dis- MILITARY TRAINING IN HIGH SCHOOLS OF STATE Teachers Will Be Provided Out of the State Fund California is to provide military instruction as a part of the public high school course, according to an announcement of the state board of education. The state board announces that teachers in military science in the high schools will hereafter be provided out of the state school fund. Adjutant General C. W. Thomas has been notified to this effect by Will C. Wood, member of the board. Wood states that the state board is ready to issue certificates to military instructors with proper qualifications and that they will be paid at the same rate as other special teachers. This ruling affects seventeen high school companies now organized, and is expected to act as a stimulus to the organization of many other companies. Instructors of some of the companies already organized have heretofore been acting without pay. OUR BOUNTIFUL HARVEST American harvests this year will be the most valuable ever produced. With the wheat crop exceeding a billion bushels, the largest ever turned out in one season by any nation, and a corn crop which also may prove to be the largest ever grown, the government's October crop report, issued last week, announced preliminary estimates which indicate record harvests of barley, oats, rye, sweet potatoes, rice, tobacco and hay.

Why economy not deposit something in Anaheim National Bank small accounts. Corn still is king of crops with indications of 3,026,159,000 bushels. While that is 98,000,000 bushels below the record of 1912, the final production, when the harvest is finished and all statistics compiled, may more than make up for the deficiency. The higher prices this year assure the most valuable corn crop ever grown. At prices to farmers prevailing October 1, the corn crop is worth $2,133,000,000. Wheat prospects increased as the growing season progressed and the government's early season forecasts moved up month by month so that the preliminary estimate of production was placed at 1,002,029,000 bushels. Wet weather at harvest time, however, reduced the quality of winter wheat so that much of it will not be available for milling purposes and will have to be used for feed. At prices prevailing October 1, the farm value of the crop is $910,844,000, considerably more than was ever paid for a wheat crop before. September weather was particularly destructive to potatoes, causing a reduction of 37,758,000 bushels, or 10 per cent in the forecast of production. Tobacco also suffered from unfavorable conditions which caused a decrease of 21,196,000 pounds in the production forecast. Tobacco, however, promises to exceed the record crop of 1909 by 43,000,000 pounds. Oats will exceed the record crop of 1912 by almost 100,000,000 bushels. Barley will exceed its record by 13,000,000 bushels; sweet potatoes by 5,000,000 bushels; rice by 500,000 bushels and hay by 8,000,000 tons. "A slight improvement in corn prospects, but a material decline in prospects for potatoes are recorded. Last year's corn production was estimated at 2,673,000,000 bushels. The condition of the crop in Iowa and the northern tier of states is conspicuously poor, as compared with other portions of the country. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE STATE'S EXPERTS COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE AND EXPERIMENT STATION ISSUE BULLETIN SOIL OF CALIFORNIA AND ITS PRODUCTS DISCUSSED IN SCIENTIFIC MANNER The annual report of the College of Agriculture and Agricultural Experiment stations, for the year ending June 30, has just been issued and a copy was received at this office. It contains 78 pages of valuable information to the agriculturalist, horticulturist and stock grower. From its pages we make the following extracts: Resident Instruction Seventy-three Bachelor's degrees and six Master's degrees were given to students of the college of agriculture, while 36 certificates were given to students completing the three year course in agriculture at the university farm school. The university students in agriculture have increased in two years from 490 to 619, while the farm school students have increased from 157 to 289. In the first instance the increase was 129 and in the second instance 132. It is also interesting to note that 169 freshmen in agriculture entered at Berkeley, while 170 first year students, with an average age of 20 years and one month, entered the farm school at Davis. In other words, 339 students of college age entered the University of California last fall to study agriculture. The students of the farmers' short courses numbered 186 and averaged about 25 years of age. If this number be included, then 525 new students entered the university this year to study agriculture. There has been no material increase in individuals taking the farmers' short courses during the two years after work is organized through the county farm bureau. He travels about the county on schedule, completing the circuit of the farm bureau centers once a month, and visiting those farms to which he is called. Boys Agricultural Clubs Agricultural clubs are established in 65 high schools of the state. The object of these clubs is to stimulate a greater interest in agriculture among high school boys and to spread a knowledge of better agricultural methods. The club members participate in a crop growing contest each year, the winner being the boy who makes the largest profit, which is not necessarily the same as making the largest yield. Plots in the various clubs vary from one-tenth of an acre for onions to one acre for corn. The net profit ranged as high as the rate of $780 per acre in the last year's contest. This seven-club finished with six or more boys completing the contest, and of these 20 clubs locally raised the funds and sent their prize winner under the guidance of the university on a transcontinental tour of 9,000 miles, visiting 24 states, Canada and Mexico, stopping at 24 cities and seeing 12 of the most prominent types of farming in America. At the same time 147 other boys who had done good work in the clubs-were sent by their home communities on a three-day trip to the university farm and to Berkeley. Field Demonstrations The older methods of Farmers' Institutes are gradually giving way to more effective methods of instruction. It consists in confining the work to a single limited topic of timely interest. The plan has been to advertise a meeting through some local body, to demonstrate some particular operation which should be performed immediately, or within a few days or weeks. A short lecture is given in a hall and rest of the time is spent in the field actually performing the work. The method economizes the time of both demonstrators and auditors. No one attends except those personally interested in the work, and one demonstrator, sometimes with an assistant, is all that is needed. Demonstrations of this kind have been given on pruning vines and olives of various ages, sulfuring, control of outworms, vine hoppers, improved methods of wine making etc. The attendance at the meetings has often... Barley will exceed its record by 13,000,000 bushels; sweet potatoes by 5,000,000 bushels; rice by 500,000 bushels and hay by 8,000,000 tons. "A slight improvement in corn prospects, but a material decline in prospects for potatoes are recorded. Last year's corn production was estimated at 2,673,000,000 bushels. The condition of the crop in Iowa and the northern tier of states is conspicuously poor, as compared with other portions of the country. "The estimated spring wheat production, 345,163,000 bushels, has overrun the September forecast 23,000,000 bushels. Last year's final estimate was 206,000,000 bushels," says the bureau of estimates. "The combination of winter wheat and spring wheat estimates makes 1,002,029,000 bushels. This is the first time the United States has reached the billion-bushel mark in wheat production. Last year's crop was estimated at 891,000,0.0 bushels. "The crop, estimated at 1,517,000,000 bushels, overthe September 1 forecast by 109,000,000 bushels and makes a new record in the production of this crop. Last year's crop was estimated at 1,141,000,000 bushels. "The preliminary estimates of winter wheat was revised by the crop reporting board, as a result of the October canvass, to 656,866,000 bushels, instead of 659,114,000 bushels as estimated in September. "The potato forecast has declined 368,000,000 bushels, a reduction of 38,000,000 or nearly 19 per cent from the September 1 forecast," the statement continues. "Last year's crop was estimated at 406,000,000 bushels and the average of the preceding five years, 357,000,000 bushels. The crop is seriously affected by blight and rot, generally in the principal potato sections east of the Mississippi river. Not only will the crop be short, but the keeping qualities probably poor. "The barley crop, like the other small grain crops and wheat and oats, has overrun early forecasts of production and exceeds that of any previous barley crop, the estimate being 237,000,000 bushels, which compares with last year's estimate of 195,000,000 bushels and the average of the preceding five years of 182,000,000 bushels. The quality is very good for feeding purposes, being plump and heavy, but much has been badly stained by rains after harvest, reducing the quality for malting." "The apple forecast is 71,632,000." has overrun early forecasts of production and exceeds that of any previous barley crop, the estimate being 237,000,000 bushels, which compares with last year's estimate of 195,000,000 bushels and the average of the preceding five years of 182,000,000 bushels. The quality is very good for feeding purposes, being plump and heavy, but much has been badly stained by rains after harvest, reducing the quality for malting. "The apple forecast is 71,632,000 barrels (three bushel), which is 433,000 barrels larger than the September 1 forecast, but 12,768,000 barrels less than last year's estimate of production. This estimate refers to total farm production (census basis), only a portion of which represents the so-called commercial crop. "Altogether the season has been favorable for crop production." JAP KILLED A Japanese named Kamino Senzo fell off a wagon Wednesday at the Bolsa Chico gun club. The wheels ran over his head and caused instant death. The man was employed at the club and was hauling alfalfa. The load tipped as it was passing over a bridge, throwing Senzo forward. Mr. Andrews, superintendent at the club grounds, telephoned of the accident to the Coroner's office and Deputy Coroner Mills went to the scene. The body was taken to the man's home, about two miles from the club, near Wintersburg. He leaves a widow and two children and was about 35 years of age. He had been in the United States 12 years. Many people practice numerous economies, but somehow their bank accounts are a sorry succession of goose eggs. Why economize if you do not deposit something in a bank? The Anaheim National Bank welcomes small accounts. Correspondence students have been enrolled from every county in California. They have also enrolled from 42 other states; the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, Philippines, Porto Rico, Canada, Fiji Islands, Greece, India, Mexico, Africa, England and various small islands of the West Indies. During the year 169,936 pieces of mail matter were sent out in the conduct of the agricultural correspondence courses, exclusive of announcement circulars. Agriculture in California Schools Hummel reports that agriculture is now taught in 64 high schools. Of these, 21 give a one-year course, 24 give a two-year course, 8 give a three-year course, and 11 give a four-year. Thirty-one teachers of agriculture in California high schools are graduates of agricultural colleges. Nine others have had some agricultural education. Fifty-six have had farm experience, ranging from one to over 25 years. Many were born and raised on farms. The salaries of agricultural teachers range from $1000 to $2160. Fifty-four high schools teaching agriculture own or rent land in connection with their agricultural instruction. The amount varies from one-fourth of an acre to 29 acres. Students do all the work on 24 of these school agricultural plots. Other schools are teaching agriculture hire some work done on the agricultural ground, but frequently this is only plowing. A greenhouse, lathouse, or both, is used by 26 schools in connection with agriculural instruction. County Farm Advisers Farm advisers have been established in eleven counties in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture. These counties in order of the appointment of the farm adviser are: Humbildt, San Joaquin San Diego, Yolo, Alameda, Kern, Madera, Napa, Ventura, Glehn and Solano. No farm adviser is installed until (a) a farm bureau is organized with at least one-fifth the farmers in the county in its membership and (b) the board of supervisors appropriate $2000 per year for the expenses of the farm adviser. No funds for this work are accepted from any other source than from the county, state and national governments. The farm adviser's In cooking potatoes only enough water should be used to make a meal mash and prevent burning. The resultant meal should then be mixed with corn meal or other grain supplement. Tankage, skim milk, or meat meal would probably add to the profit of the mixture. Potatoes when prepared in the manner described and under the conditions mentioned can often be fed to pigs with advantage. Dr. M. M. Henderson, Dentist, Suite 1, Mullinix bldg., Anaheim.
