THEODORE ROBERTS AT THE SIGN OF THE BIG CLOCK WALNUT BY-PRODUCTS Culls Should Help Pay Expenses of Ranch, Is Growers' Wish What to do with walnut culls and low off grade nuts has become a more serious problem each year since the output has increased each year in proportion to the output of the merchantable nuts. The grower is naturally anxious that the culls should help to pay the expenses of the ranch. Perhaps the walnut growers problem as to the disposal of his culls is not so large nor so serious as that of the orange grower, but each it trying to solve it as best he may. In a small way there has been an opening for walnut culls. Some growers have cracked them and sold the meats locally to confectioners and bakers. This outlet is naturally quite limited. A small business has been established for cracking culls and shipping the meats to Eastern buyers. A few established buyers of culls and meats, and peddlers calling at the growers' home for culls, have helped to take care of the output. Not only have prices been unsatisfactory, but ed and the bulk of the shells fanned out. The meats run into a sack and are carried to the long tables, where women sort them into four grades. They are packed in 25-pound boxes. It is proposed also to put some up for the family trade in half and one-pound packages. It is probable that the smaller package will prove the more popular. This is the case with the walnut packages. I was informed that orders had been received for nearly 3,000,000 of the California Diamond brand walnut cartoons, 93 per cent for the one-pound size, and seven per cent for the two-pound size. There is a suggestion for the sale of white halves which are so eagerly sought in the making of walnut candies. A small carton with isinglass window, holding four ounces, the carton of appropriate color and design to set off the white walnut meats, the carton to be nearly filled with meats, leaving room for the facing layer, which is to be seen through the window. Between the filling and the facing layer is placed a small booklet of recipes for the use of walnut meats. This boklet must of course WOMAN HOME A woman home suggested as a very worker with the farms where the latter seems to be a little there should be an advisability of ment, and a little in the development or idea that the home been thought of trying outs had not been instead of men.

Some growers have cracked them and sold the meats locally to confectioners and bakers. This outlet is naturally quite limited. A small business has been established for cracking culls and shipping the meats to Eastern buyers. A few established buyers of culls and meats, and peddlers calling at the growers' home for culls, have helped to take care of the output. Not only have prices been unsatisfactory, but the output was not entirely taken care of if it was at all large. Attention was called to this condition about three years ago and the associations urged to take hold of this matter for their members. The suggestion made at that time was for each association to establish a walnut cracker but to sell the meats through its central agency at Los Angeles. This year the associations established a walnut cracker at Los Angeles to serve the members of all associations. Centering the effort at one point may prove the better way. We must remember that this is still in an experimental stage, and time must elapse before a final decision can be made. It might prove more practicable for the larger associations to have their own cracker and ship the meats to the central home for grading and packing. Meanwhile we may feel that a step in the right direction has been taken and that improvements will be made as experience shall dictate. A visit to the walnut cracker at the Walnut Growers' Association headquarters in Los Angeles recently revealed a beehive of activity. About 150 women and girls were seated at long tables, sorting and grading walnuts meats. The culls are poured into a hopper and an endless conveyor belt carries them into a grading drum. The different sizes drop into different compartments and go on to their respective rollers where they are crack- A small carton with isinglass window, holding four ounces, the carton of appropriate color and design to set off the white walnut meats, the carton to be nearly filled with meats, leaving room for the facing layer, which is to be seen through the window. Between the filling and the facing layer is placed a small booklet of recipes for the use of walnut meats. This booklet must of course just nicely fit the box. Whether the facing is put in first or last can be learned by a little experimenting. There is certainly good reason to think that when walnut meats are offered to the public in this attractive form the demand will become nearly as active as it has in the case of the walnut package. The price of walnut meats f. o. b. Los Angeles, as they were given me may be said to be quite satisfactory, and this experiment promises success after the first difficulties shall have been overcome. The use of nuts for food is coming into greater favor and will increase if walnut meats are in attractive and sanitary packages, with contents properly labeled and guaranteed. The instructions for use of walnuts are quite essential because the public must be educated up to it first. The combination of ground walnut meats and fruits, e.g., canned or preserved figs, apricots, etc., makes a delicious and wholesome repast and a little experimenting would teach us how to guard against spoilage. Here are lines of research which might be profitably followed by our experiment stations for the benefit of both walnut and fruit growers. Walnut candies might also constitute one of the by products.

EIGHT Director J. J. Dwyer, at the regular meeting of the Anaheim Union Water company Saturday, reported that an effort was being made to connect the Golden State Tract water system with the A. U. W.

ROBERTS, Jeweler ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA WOMAN HOME ADVISER A woman home adviser has been suggested as a very appropriate coworker with the farm adviser in counties where the latter has made good. It seems to be a little strange that there should be any question about the advisability of such an appointment, and a little more strange that in the development of the farm advisor idea that the home advisor had not been thought of first, and that the try outs had not been made with women instead of men. Every one who has given the matter of home and farm improvement any thought will agree that our homes are just as much in need of improvement as our farms. The importance of the proper conduct of the home should rank first in importance, if we agree that any outside advisory help is needed, for the all-important reason of its effect upon the proper development of the children that are growing up there. The improvement of any home in a way to reduce the amount of labor required to keep it attractive, comfortable, and in the best meaning of the term, a home, would be worse than POTENT SELLING METHODS Progress in selling methods is the most interesting thing that may come to the producers of the United States at this time. Various methods of cooperative selling, as well as buying, have been tried by granges and other producer's associations with varying degrees of success it appearing that a plan which works well in one community may fail in another, where conditions are not the same. By the energy and business acumen of the leaders of a Long Island grange, a market has been found for the products of its members that is taxing their energies and resources to keep supplied. About 1500 members of this grange are participating in the success of their progressive methods. The Tryst, an eight-page periodical, is issued when in the judgment of the marketing committee it is needed, and it is mailed to a classified list of New York consumers who are interested in direct marketing, and tells them just what these grangers have to sell. An unwritten law has seemed to prevail among these people that their suggested that the company consider the proposition of siphon to take the place of flume 8, as the company had all necessary tools on the job at flume 7, and he anticipated quite a saving on flume 8. This was referred to a committee for investigation. On motion duly seconded Engineer Sherwood was instructed to design a siphon in which the meter is to be installed at Conoly's in Yorba Linda, for a capacity of 2500 M. I. without head. On motion duly seconded Engineer Sherwood was instructed to establish the necessary grades for the siphon at Conoly's. A communication from A. L. Porter requesting a lease on the Cota and Shorb tracts for a period of five years was granted. Communication from R. W. Collins requesting permission to level and grade the Anaheim main ditch right of way on his ranch east of the Placentia road was read and referred to the superintendent. Communication from J. W. Dukworth, secretary of the river protection committee, thanking the board for the donation toward river protection work was read and filed. Communication from Standard Oil Co., advising of a 5 cent per bbl raise in oil shipped from the St. Helens lease was received and filed. On motion duly seconded 4 shares of the capital stock of the company were transferred from J. A. Vall to Wm. Kammerer and W. R. Ritchle.

The improvement of any home in a way to reduce the amount of labor required to keep it attractive, comfortable, and in the best meaning of the term, a home would be worse than useless if it took away the children's responsibility and interest in each one doing his part in the home-keeping. Granting that this condition would not occur, then good wholesome advice would not come amiss in practically all of our homes. The question of economy or efficiency in the appointment of farm advisors was raised at the time of the first appointments in California, and is still questioned by certain farmers in this state and in other states. The burden of their argument is that the average freshly graduated young man from an agricultural school is not qualified to advise farmers who had studied the problems of agriculture for many years. Doubtless their objections are well founded in some cases, possibly in many cases; but the fault, if fault there be, would then fall upon those who have the power to appoint, for having appointed a person who was not qualified. In the matter of a home advisor it would seem that a peculiar fitness would be indispensable in such an appointment. Inexperience and theorizing would not avail in a person who would essay to fill such an office. A qualified home advisor would needs have a store of wisdom far greater than the average, and also be possessed of a knowledge how to impart it that is not given to ordinary mortals. About 1500 members of this grange are participating in the success of their progressive methods. The Tryst, an eight-page periodical, is issued when in the judgment of the marketing committee it is needed, and it is mailed to a classified list of New York consumers who are interested in direct marketing, and tells them just what these grangers have to sell. An unwritten law has seemed to prevail among these people that their products must be of the highest standard of excellence, for their customers are those who are looking for and appreciate quality in the products that they buy. These grangers are now proposing to issue to the members a grange stamp which will, when placed upon their products, mean that they are of high quality and the reputation of the grange is back of them. Not all grangers or other producers may have a big city like New York in which to look for customers who are willing to exchange their cash directly to the producer for the things they want, but there must be thousands of cities and towns whose citizens would welcome an opportunity to deal with an organization like this Long Island grange. The fact that producers receive too little and the consumers pay too much for farm products is becoming better known, and there is no good reason why organizations of city consumers should not take the initiative in this matter and round up a sufficient number of producers who would be willing to grow the things they want, of acceptable quality, and deal with them directly, to their mutual profit. Under the present system the price paid to the producer is no guide to the price exacted of the consumer for an article which has passed through many hands, by the last handler in the line. To eliminate as far as possible these handling costs should be the mutual concern of the grower and the people who eat his products.

NO JOKE TO THE ENGINEER "You don't know what a nervous strain you are putting on a man in the cab," said a Santa Fe locomotive engineer to an auto mobile driver, "when you dash up to a crossing just ahead of his train. There he is in his cab and he knows that he can't stop his engine. There you are in your automobile speeding toward the crossing just ahead. You probably know that you are going to stop just at the edge of the track and look up and laugh at him. He doesn't. He doesn't know that you even see the train. He doesn't know but what you are going to try to dash across ahead of him. It's a joke maybe to you. To him it's a few seconds of the most intense agony. Why do you do it? When you see a train coming and know that you can't make the crossing and don't even intend to try to make it—why don't you slow down and give the engineer the assurance that his train is not about to hurl you into eternity?" "I never thought of it in that light," said the auto man. "I guess we do those things in a spirit of deviltry. I can tell you one thing, though. I'm never going to harrow up another engineer's nerves." "I wish they'd all quit it," said the railroad man. "It happens a dozen times a day." Who's Hazel? Your Druggist?
