The recent decision of Superior Judge Seawell of San Francisco who decreed that the board of health had no jurisdiction over eggs passing through that city for points outside the state, released four thousand cases of Chinese eggs that had been shipped from Shanghai in August, 1914, consigned to Seattle.
According to the attorney for the shippers the decision opens the way for the importation of millions of Chinese eggs which may be used, when reasonably young, he said, by bakeries and which even in their old age are valuable for tanning leather.
Assemblyman Harry A. Wishard of Los Angeles has introduced a drastic measure into the assembly to prevent the marriage of diseased persons. His bill makes it imperative upon the county clerks of the various counties to secure a health certificate from both parties to the marriage before issuing a license. He would make it a felony for any physician to issue a permit certifying health when disease existed.
HAWAIIAN SUGAR SHORT
The production of sugar in the organized feeding ground for cattle from Arizona, New Mexico and Old Mexico. It is said that about 2,000 cattle per month are being driven into the Valley to be fattened for market, and they find a ready sale when fat to Los Angeles packers. Cattle are said to fatten rapidly on the alfalfa grown in the Valley. The dairy business in the Valley is also a growing one. About 8,000,000 pounds of butter is produced there. Of the 115,000 cattle in Imperial Valley, it is estimated that 32,000 are milk cows. Butterfat was sold to the extent of $150,000. Hogs were sold to the extent of $125,000 and its honey crop reached 15,000 cases.
FINAL WARNING TO HAY AND FUEL DEALERS
George McPhee Declares They Must Obey the Law
With his patience exhausted just about to the breaking point by repeated violations of the state regulations for the weight and measurement of hay and fuel wood sold in Orange county, following warnings that such violations will not be tolerated. Geo. McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, has issued a final warning to such dealers to obey the law, and if they do not, prompt prosecution will follow.
The warning specifies that the sale of hay by "tag weight" and the sale of fuel wood by the "tier" or "rack" will not be tolerated. Hay must be sold by its correct weight at time of sale, and fuel wood must be sold by the cord or part of a cord, which is 128 cubic feet.
"A tier of wood doesn't mean anything," said Mr. McPhee. "A tier might me five feet long or might extend from here to Ensenada. Wood must be measured in terms of the cord. If the wood is cut 6 inches

HAWAIIAN SUGAR SHORT
The production of sugar in the Hawaiian Islands in 1916 was 53,237 tons less than in the previous year, despite an increased area planted to cane sugar. Returns to the Department of Agriculture show that the year's output was approximately 592,703 tons. The decreased production was due to a lower yield of cane per acre and a smaller average of sugar per ton of cane.
As far as the general sugar situation is concerned in this country at the present moment, most of the big local jobbers expect to see prices remain steady. One weakening influence in the market is the report from Cuba that the crop is coming forward much more rapidly than at any time since the harvesting commenced. This year weather conditions were unfavorable for harvesting in Cuba early in the season, and thus the receipts of Cuban sugar for delivery to the New York market were light. Nearly 150 mills are operating throughout the island, with the result that from now on there will be ample sugar out of the new crop to take care of all requirements and without delay.
Buying of sugar by the trade continues on a hand-to-mouth basis, and this policy will be continued generally by the trade, at least until the spread between raw and refined is nearer normal. Higher prices for sugar last year reduced the consumption in the United States as well as in foreign countries. Government statistics show an average of only 78.13 pounds were used by each person in 1916, against 84.06 in 1915 and 89.14 in 1914. Foreign countries continue to curtail consumption. Denmark has just adopted a cary system limiting purchases to 5 pounds per person per month.

Frosts have seriously injured all tender vegetables in several districts of Florida according to the bureau of measure into the assembly to prevent the marriage of diseased persons. His bill makes it imperative upon the county clerks of the various counties to secure a health certificate from both parties to the marriage before issuing a license. He would make it a felony for any physician to issue a permit certifying health when disease existed.
The warning specifies that the sale of hay by "tag weight" and the sale of fuel wood by the "tier" or "rack" will not be tolerated. Hay must be sold by its correct weight at time of sale, and fuel wood must be sold by the cord or part of a cord, which is 128 cubic feet.
"A tier of wood doesn't mean anything," said Mr. McPhee. "A tier might me five feet long or might extend from here to Ensenada. Wood must be measured in terms of the cord. If the wood is cut 6 inches long or 9 inches or 12 inchse, the bulk must conform to the cubic feet measurement of the cord or part of a cord.
"Some of the dealers follow the law absolutely, and with these I have no quarrel, but I'm tired of the actions of some of the dealers, after being repeatedly warned, of violating the law simply because it's the old style easier way.
"Neither does the tag weight of hay mean anything, for the scales used by baling outfits in getting the tag weight have been fished from the junk heaps and are not correct, and even if they are correct, the bale of hay loses a little weight every time it is moved, and the tag weight six months ago has very little relationship with the selling weight of today.
"Only last week a man in Santa Ana bought a bale of alfalfa, tagged '100 pounds', and he paid for a hundred pounds, but when I weighed the bale it only weighed 95 pounds, and on that basis, the ton would be 100 pounds short."
SWEET POTATO ORCHARD INTERCROP
A good income has been made for the past three years since orange were planted on the O. Hilbers ranch in this county, from sweet potatoes planted each spring between the rows on about 2½ acres and other vegetables, etc., in other parts of the orchard. The sweet potatoes yielded about 1500 pounds per row across the 20-acre piece.
Irrigation of the sweet potatoes did not interfere with that of the trees, for there were only four rows in the 24-foot spaces between tree rows. Water was run between sweet potato rows and in three furrows between them and the trees on each side. The soil is sandy with a hard bottom six feet down.

WINTER TRUCK CROP ESTIMATES
Frosts have seriously injured all tender vegetables in several districts of Florida, according to the bureau of crop estimates of the U.S. department of agriculture. Much of the early lettuce in these sections is reported to be going to seed, but the largest part of the crop has already been shipped. Cabbage shipments are already under way from most districts, also celery.
One district in Virginia reports only about 65% of a crop of cabbage and spinach, due to frosts. Strawberry acreage is reported short and the outlook is for a short planting of potatoes.
Texas reports say that 60% of the cabbage crop was killed by the December freeze and that lettuce will be somewhat later than usual. Bermuda onion plantings are not as early as usual because of weather conditions.
On Jan 1, the cabbage crop of the large producing states was estimated at 81% of normal, California's crop being set at 89%. Celery was estimated to be 90% of a full crop, the California crop being placed at 82%. Lettuce was considered 75% of a full crop, California's crop being estimated at 84%. Onions indicate 87%, California having a 92% crop. The report estimates the tomato crop of the various states at 87%, that of California at 92%, while strawberries average 88% for all the states as against 98% for California.

Irrigation of the sweet potatoes did not interfere with that of the trees, for there were only four rows in the 24-foot spaces between tree rows. Water was run between sweet potato rows and in three furrows between them and the trees on each side. The soil is sandy with a hard bottom six feet down.
The tubers were planted in a hotbed some two months before they were planted in April or May after frost danger was over. If the plants get too large, cutting them back does not hurt them.
Ridges were made 30 inches apart and the plants set on these about 16 inches apart. They were irrigated and cultivated about six times. The September irrigation for trees was run through the outside furrow, but not among the potatoes, for digging proceeds from September until late in October whenever prices are good. The vines continue green until frost in November if not dug before; but if frosted, should be cut off from the sweet potatoes at once.
Ordinary potatoes will be grown this year because they can be dug earlier. Alfalfa has been grown for two years in three centers to feed the cow. It is kept several feet from the trees and checked so it can be irrigated independently. Furrows outside the alfalfa supply water for the trees.

AN OPEN WOUND
The trouble is that the Mexican situation is an open wound, a curse to both the countries chiefly involved, an unceasing menace, a debilitating drain upon the American treasury, a standing nuisance and offence and an abasement of the repute of the United States among nations. Here was an opportunity for radical reforms, if ever one presented itself. No measure which the commission could have suggested would have been too sweeping for the needs of the case.
Conservatism receives much of its blame and ridicule for conserving institutions that are worth keeping and that possess sufficient excellence to call for care. In spirit, Messrs. Gray, Mott and Lane are apparently conservatives. They are plenty of radical human dynamos running amuck about the country and interfering with the delicately adjusted mechanism of this institution and that, quite at random, whose energy might better have gone into the congenial field of Mexican affairs.
A radical himself, when it comes to dealing with the fixtures of a sound social system at home, Mr. Wilson is the perfect conservative when a real emergency like the Mexican situation is thrust into his hands. He can conserve a crisis longer, perhaps, than any other president the country ever had. Under his care the crisis in Mexico has been kept vigorous for more than three years. Unless they have bad luck the warring nations of Europe will finish with their own terrible conflict in time to quit and watch the latest development of Mr. Wilson’s crisis in Mexico carried over since a date before the European war was thought of.
OIL FIELD NOTES
The week just closed has been one of the most active among the oil operators since the first of the year. A new oil company has entered the field, a number of new wells have been finished and put on the pump, and a lot of new work has been started, closing the month of January with a great record for work done and new work started. February opens with the opportunities for the oil developer looming large. The price of crude oil is holding firm, the price of gasoline and other refined products stands well up and seems to be immovable. The only remedy for the situation is the finding of the crude in larger quantities, and this will bring out a lot of capital to develop wild cat territory.
The Brea Canyon Oil company’s well No. 29 has suddenly come into fame and is regarded as the most wonderful find in the Brea fields. The well stands out unique in the history of the development of the oil industry in this field in that no oil of appreciable quantity has ever before been found at a depth of 2100 feet, the depth of No. 29. Early in the week the well was put on the pump and made an initial flow of 3500 bbls. a day, this great flow of oil was accompanied by a tremendous gas pressure. No well in the Brea field ever made such a big flow of oil starting out. The Union’s 53 close by started out making 3300 bbls. The Brea company have closed the well down allowing it to flow at the rate of 1000 bbls. daily. The oil is 27 gravity. The Brea Canyon’s well is the center of interest today on account of the great production at such a comparatively shallow depth. Neighboring wells are in the sand at around 3500 to 4000 ft.

EFFIE AT THE NEW GRAND
Mademoiselle Effle, the "Mental Marvel," will be at the New Grand on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings of next week, also will give a special ladies' matinee Friday afternoon. Effle is one of the marvels of the age, who gives heart to heart talks. She knows your name and your fiancee's name, (after you have whispered them to Dr. Breon, the eminent French hypnotist). He aids and abets Effle in her act.
Effle will have a complete change of program each night. In addition to this marvelous mind reading woman the regular program will be given. Monday night Florence Reed will appear in "The Cawardly Way." Tuesday, "A Man and His Angel," with Jane Grey as the star will be shown. Wednesday a 5-act drama, "Mister 44," with Harold Lockwood and May Allison in the chief parts, will be on the screen. Mabel Tallaferro will appear in "The Sunbeam" Thursday night. Friday a matinee for ladies only will be given. This will be Effle's last appearance.
Effle's method is this: You focus your attention on the person whose name you have just whispered. You have been thinking a great deal of her lately. She has not written. "Her name"—Effle gives a slight pause, and then, dramatically—"Her name is Alice." You have reason to worry. If you don't get busy, you will lose Alice. She is thinking now of another, who is more attentive than you are.
Of course, it is not always Alice. People think of Ernestines, Mildreds and even such prosaic names as Sarah, and Mamie. They are not always flames, either. Some of them are aunts and grandmothers. But Effle generally gives some sage advice in addition to merly proclaiming the name.

In view of this requirement, which oil was accompanied by a tremendous gas pressure. No well in the Brea field ever made such a big flow of oil starting out. The Union's 53 close by started out making 8300 bbls. The Brea company have closed the well down allowing it to flow at the rate of 1000 bbls daily. The oil is 27 gravity. The Brea Canyon's well is the center of interest today on account of the great production at such a comparatively shallow depth. Neighboring wells are in the sand at around 3500 to 4000 ft deep, and it has never occurred to any of the developers that oil in such a quantity as the Brea Canyon No. 29 is making would be found in the local field. The owners are no doubt astonished and amazed at the well's unprecedented performance.
The Amalgamated Oil company is closing the month with a strong development card. This company put Hulde No. 17 on the pump and report the well making 200 bbls daily. The production of No. 8 continues to keep close to the initial figures of 600 bbls. At No. 9 progress is delayed on account of pipe trouble. Drilling on No. 26 is going good at 2700. On the Anheim Union lease the Amalgamated have No. 30 down 3180. No. 40 stands cemented and 41 is ready for the rotary.
Development work on the hill by the Birch Oil company is going along very nicely. The deep well, No. 10 is now 4250 and is showing very encouragingly and has all the indications of being a good well when finished. No. 11 is drilling at 1675 and No. 12 is in the sand at 2460. No. 14 is going good at 1000 feet.
The great oil activity and the certainty of possibilities has attracted another development concern to this field. The new company is known as the New Era Oil company and is composed of San Diego capitalists. The newcomers have purchased 40 acres of land near the town of Placentia and will begin drilling as soon as preparations can be made. It is understood that a portion of the hole will be put down by the hydraulic method. The New Era have their first derrick up and are installing the machinery. The work of this company will be watched with great interest as the location chosen is two miles from the producing wells of the Brea field, and the finding of oil as far south as Placentia would greatly widen the productive area of the field.
The Columbia are making good progress in redrilling their No. 7 and oil daily, doubling the output of the lease. On the same lease Nos. 21, 23, 26, 27, 28 and 29 are drilling.
On the Whittier lease one well was completed and put on the pump this week. No. 45 was put on the beam and is making 100 bbls of 15 gravity oil. On the Whittier Nos. 41, 42, 46, 47 are drilling. Work on grades for Nos. 49 and 50 continue.
At Dominguez the Standard met with a little misfortune and were compelled to do some redrilling. However the redrilling work is going along nicely and new hole will be in the making in a short time. The Baldwin Hills well stands cemented at 2240 feet. Progress on this well has been good all along and it is thought that as soon as drilling is resumed after the cement has stood required time, the well will be completed rapidly.
Activity along the water front in the vicinity of the Dominguez and Bixby properties has been augmented by the commencement of drilling by General Petroleum company of a well on the Carson tract. The General's well is located 3-4 of a mile northwest of the Highland Development company's holdings.

A HINT AT GOAT GARDENING
In view of this requirement, which is often difficult to meet, we are wondering whether the exhortation to goat the dooryard is not, after all, more rational than the one to garden it. It is surely more unique. It was announced by the publicity expert of the University of California last week that "most families can use the product of a quarter of a cow"; and when you ask "which quarter," you get the whole argument. It is like this:
"That a back yard and a front yard of an ordinary city lot will sustain that quarter of a cow in the guise of a goat and that milk bills may thus be rendered negligible and assist to the extent of $50 or $60 a year in reducing the cost of living, is the opinion of Prof. G. H. True of the University Farm School at Davis. He says the grass from a front lawn, together with the refuse of a vegetable garden, will keep the goat well, while it would not be sufficient by 75 per cent to keep a cow."
The suggestion is surely a good one and it has no exaggeration, which is one reason why we like it. A goat will not only eat the refuse of the garden, but, if you get the right kind of a goat, it will eat the garden itself, including the morning paper, the contents of the clothes' line, the door mats, the kid's baseball mit, and the paint from the back steps. In other words, it will ensure absolute cleanliness of the whole place, which is a fundamental of good gardening.
The Columbia are making good progress in redrilling their No. 7 and now better than 1500 feet. This company has met with a lot of difficulties drilling No. 7, but the outlook is now considerably better. In the Olinda field the Columbia have No. 26 down around 2400. No. 27 is drilling at 3300 and is understood to be showing very good. No. 28 is drilling, 29 is rigged up for drilling and will be the next to commence on as soon as some one of the others is completed. The Columbia has some of the most difficult territory in the field, and are to be complimented on their success thus far.
The Fullerton Oil company are firm in their belief that they will get a well at No. 10. Although the company has met with all kinds of hard luck and discouragement of one kind and another work is still going on and a well will be brought in spite of the misfortunes of the game. Redrilling on No. 10 is underway around the 3450 mark. Preparations for putting No. 12 on the pump are underway. The well is being tubed and is fully expected to show when the water is bailed off. The well is 1960 deep and has shown up very strong the past week.
The Standard Oil company has five wells drilling on the Emery, Nos. 28, 29, 30, 31 and 32. Wells on the Emery lease are completed around 3500 feet and produce 25 gravity oil.
The Murphy lease still stands out as the Standard's best paying property in this field, by reason of No. 25's that a portion of the hole will be put down by the hydraulic method. The New Era have their first derrick up and are installing the machinery.
