The human race has threshed many things from bad boys to good wheat crops, but it has been reserved for Tularein the midst of the San Joaquin Valley to invent a new thresher and a thresh a new crop. Up there in the rich fields around Tulare they have a new fashioned machine engaged threshing watermelons. The purpose of threshing these great gourd fruits is to get the seeds in order to plant more watermelons for food purposes. The seeds of the watermelon bring $12 per hundred pounds, and ten acres is to be threshed for seed. Born, on Thursday, Nov. 2, to Mrs. Mildred Dutton, a daughter. Lieut.

He fell one thousand feet at San Diego Saturday and was instantly killed. He dropped inside the exposition grounds just north of the Cabrillo bridge. Guards and spectators rushed to the spot and found the aviator's body crushed badly. Death was instantaneous. Opinions differ as to the cause of the accident and it will never be known just what caused his fall. He had finished writing "Farewell" in the sky and then made about a dozen cork-screw turns downward over a canyon. He seemed to be preparing to give the crowd anther thriller by going down into the canyon and out of it and may have not gaged his distance correctly. Army aviators who say the flight and examined the wrecked machine afterwards could not determine the reason for the fall. Whether the engine, which had given trouble before failed him, whether he became dizzy and lost his bearings or whether it was the suction of the air in the canyon that drew the machine down out of his cotnrol, will never be known. Lieut. H. A. Dargue, aviation instructor at North Island, Lieut. Seth Cook and Lieut. W. C. Ryan, all aviators, saw the accident and were among the first to examine the machine. Dargue believes that Boquel became dizzy, lost his bearings and was unable to right the machine. and Petrixino, another daring stunt man, is no more, having lost his life last week at Buenos Ayres, South America. "It is all the result of performing stunts. In the war not to exceed 2 per cent are killed, while in the exhibition game the loss will run 60 per cent. I do not believe the public cares for these stunts and I am sure that it is a needless waste of life. I am opposed to the exhibition-aviation game. It should be stopped." THE HORSE MAKES A COUNTER ATTACK Columns have been written to show that horses and mules are no longer needed in war by writers whose talents should be devoted to writing best sellers à la Chambers. It may bring some of them to earth to pursue the following figures from the U. S. Bureau of Foreign Commerce: From September 1, 1914 to June 1, 1916, the United States exported 30,411 commercial automobiles, valued at $81,295,986; 69,803 passenger automobiles valued at $57,623,261, and 22,502 motorcycles, valued at $4,202,877—a grand total of 122,716 motor driven vehicles, all kinds, with a total value of $143,122,124. Against these exports, which have caused the motor driven knights of the fountain pen to indulge in ecstatic paens of joy, regarding the elimination of horses and mules, the cold figures show that during the same period—September 1, 1914, to June 1, 1916—611,700 horses, valued at $134,943,456 and 167,387 mules valued at $34,198,955, were exported—a total, in value of $169,142,411. This overshadows very handily, the total of exports of motor driven vehicles. To the exports of horses and mules, however, we must add the ex-substitutes for waters previously imported. New York led in number of commercial springs and in quantity of mineral water sold and was second to Wisconsin in total value of production and in value of table waters. California was first and Indiana was second in value of medicinal waters. NATIONAL FOREST RECEIPS Receipts from National Forests for the fiscal year 1916 reached the high water mark of approximately $2,820,000, according to figures just compiled. This is $341,000 above the 1913 total, which in turn exceeded any previous year. Officials say that the gain was due to increased demand for all classes of forest products. There was a decided growth in the revenue from all sources, the largest being that of $203,000 in timber sales. Grazing fees showed a gain of $77,000. Receipts for water power development were over $12,000 more than for 1915. Sales of turpentine privileges and charges for special uses were both considerably in excess of the previous year. Officials say that the National forests are important factors in the prosperity of the regions in which they are located, o naccount of the large amount of timber, range, and other resources which tehy hold available for use as needed. Business conditions are reflected in the receipts of the Forests. Consequently the showing for the past year is regarded as an index of increased business activity throughout the sections where the national forests are found. PASTEURIZE MILK The often disputed question of whether milk from tuberculous cows is made safe for use as human food becomes increasingly important. Lieut. H. A. Dargue, aviation instructor at North Island, Lieut. Seth Cook and Lieut. W. C. Ryan, all aviators, saw the accident and were among the first to examine the machine. Dargue believes that Boquel became dizzy, lost his bearings and was unable to right the machine. In five minutes more Boquel would have been presented with a gold medal by President Davidson who was standing on the field waiting to give the aviator the medal as the greatest aviator that had visited the fair, when he fell to his death. Boquel, known as the "sky dragon" on account of his spectacular and hazardous performances in the air, was 32 years old age. He was born in Normandy, France. He took up flying first in 1912. Silas Christofferson, the aviator who fell to his death in Northern California just a few days ago, was his instructor. Last summer Boquel began exhibition flying at Seal Beach. Boquel was from a section of France which produced many aviators. He was recognized as the most daring flyer in America and predicted a few days ago that a triplane would soon be driven from San Diego to New York City in forty hours. J. Robinson Hall, the aviator, who some time ago returned from Germany, and who was in Anaheim with the European war pictures a short time ago, stated that of the five aviators who were with the San Francisco exposition, Smith was the only one remaining alive. "Tony Janus," said Hall, "is gone. Silas Christofferson met his fate at Redding, Beachey ended his career early in the days of the exposition, static paens of joy, regarding the elimination of horses and mules, the cold figures show that during the same period—September 1, 1914, to June 2, 1916—611,700 horses, valued at $134,943,456 and 167,387 mules valued at $34,198,955, were exported—a total, in value of $169,142,411. This overshadows very handily, the total of exports of motor driven vehicles. To the exports of horses and mules, however, we must add the exports of wagons, valued at $2,461,611; and of harness and sadles, valued at $25,739,015. The grand total for horses, mules, wagons, harness and saddles, exported during the 23 months ending June 1, 1916, comes to $197,343,037—almost two hundred million dollars. This exceeds the exports of motor vehicles by more than fifty four million dollars, and is conclusive evidence that horses and mules are not back numbers in war. MINERAL WATERS The number of active mineral springs in the United States in 1915, was smaller and the production was less though the value was greater than in 1914. Statistics reported from 829 commercial springs show that the total production was 54,358,466 gallons valued at $4,892,328. The decrease in production was 2,444,936 gallons, or 4 per cent. The increase in value of medicinal waters was $60,506 and in the value of table waters $185,960; thus the total increase in value of sales was $246,466, or 5 per cent. The increase in business is slightly less than the decrease in imports of foreign waters, and this, coupled with the increase of price per gallon from 9 to 10 cents, indicates increased sales of moderately high priced domestic waters that have become valuable. PASTEURIZE MILK The often disputed question of whether milk from tuberculous cows is made safe for use as human food by proper pasteurization has been settled in the affirmative by experiments recently concluded by Dr. Jacob Traum, assistant professor of veterinary science in the University of California, and Dr. G. H. Hart, city veterinarian of Los Angeles. Their experimental proof that milk pasteurization really works is declared by the university especially opportune because with October 1, a new state law went into effect which forbids the sale in California of milk from any other than tuberculin tested herds unless such milk has been pasteurized by heating it uniformly for 25 minutes at a temperature of 140 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit. The flaw in previous experiments was that they had not dealt with milk from tuberculous cows pasteurized under ordinary commercial conditions. A thoroughly practical test was resolved upon by Prof. Traum and Dr. Hart. They found a dairy in Los Angeles which had separated all its cattle into two herds, one of the healthy animals and the other of the cows which had been found to have tuberculosis. The milk from the latter herd of four hundred cows, every single one of which was tuberculous, was being carefully pasteurized in a commercial creamery in Los Angeles and then sold.

GANAHL LUMBER COMPANY Anaheim. scientists took samples of the raw milk and samples of the milk after it had been pasteurized under commercial conditions, in a battery of three large vats with a capacity of 500 gallons each. Thus it was possible to follow the same batch of milk from the raw through the clarified to the final pasteurized state. Twenty four samples of raw milk taken at intervals during a period of six months were used to inoculate gulena pigs. In every instance except one these twenty samples of raw milk produced tuberculosis in the gulena-pigs. Fourteen samples of this milk, clarified but not yet pasteurized, were tested and these produced tuberculosis-in all but three gulena pigs inoculated. Twenty-three samples of this same milk, taken, however, after pasteurization on a large scale under ordinary commercial conditions, when used to inoculate gulena pigs failed to produce tuberculosis or to cause death in a single instance. These notable experiments show that great service is going to be rendered to the good cause of fighting tuberculosis, which now causes more than a third of all deaths in California and five times as many deaths as all the epidemic diseases put together, by the putting into effect in October of the beneficient law requiring all market milk from cows which have not passed the test for tuberculosis to be pasteurized before this milk can be sold to be fed to unsuspecting human beings or used for making butter—for butter made from milk not pasteurized threatens the same sort of disease of carrying tuberculosis.

The two investigators lay great emphasis on their warning that unless pasteurization is properly done and carefully supervised, its value will be impaired and the public given a false sense of security. Are Shy of Tomatoes:— The Placentia cannery has been running on half time owing to lack of material and the people of that town are missing from $500 to $750 per week of the payroll. Speaking on the subject Mr. Stevenson, manager of the plant said: "In the first place, owing to the long continued wet spell, subsequent fogs and cold nights, the conditions were the worst possible for ripening of tomatoes, and with blight, the higher price being offered for green stock for eastern shipments and one other reason, deliveries are far below our requirements. Another reason is that some growers after contracting with us at the beginning of the year, for future delivery of tomatoes, although at a stated price, have seen fit to violate their contracts, selling green and ripe stuff as well, from the lands under contract. Of course there will be a big loss in during regular office hours. J. C. LAMB, Tax Collector of Orange County. October 19, 1916.
