FRUIT GROWERS GATHER AND PROTEST NOT SATISFIED WITH VALUATION GIVEN LANDS BY FARM LOAN APPRAISERS CLAIM BANK AT BERKELEY IS ASSESSING IMPROVED LANDS TOO LOW The federal farm loan bank has many problems, not only within its own directorate, but in its operations in different sections of the country. It has just observed its first anniversary, the members of the national body having been sworn in at Washington on August 17, 1916. On its anniversary it sent out a statement of some things accomplished during the first year, and perhaps in consideration of the radical change from any financial movement ever undertaken in this country the advancement has been great. This statement makes the assertion that loans to farmers are now being approved at the rate of nearly $1,000,000 daily and that 25 farm loan associations are being chartered daily. Each association represents about $50,000 in loans. During its first year it has divided the country into 12 federal land bank districts. The banks have been established, appraisers have been named and a few of the lands have been valued by these appraisers. And this matter of appraisement—there is the rub. helm. The committee appointed to secure consideration of the matter by the board of officials of the federal farm loan bank and to notify them to observe orchard conditions in the Southern part of the state was made up of L. W. Cushman, Ontario; S. S. Stahl, Fontana; J. W. Deupree, Lankersheim; J. A. Adamson, Pomona; E. C. Cramer, Claremont; Ed F. Walker, Glendora; J. K. Brown, Anaheim; M. Seeley, Covina; W. J. Newsom, Garden Grove. RED CROSS EMBLEM ORDERED REMOVED San Juan Capistrano Garage Compelled To Paint It Out Dr. John Wehrly, secretary of the Santa Ana Red Cross has notified Marshall's Garage of San Juan Capistrano that it must remove the Red Cross insignia that has been placed upon the garage's wrecking car and ambulance. The garage had the machine painted white and had a red cross placed upon it, together with words showing that the garage does a business in looking after wrecked machines. Because of the growing misuse of the Red Cross emblem commercially, the American Red Cross has just issued a new warning to those who may be violating the law regarding it. While much of this misuse of the emblem is unintentional and through excessive zeal, the National Red Cross can no longer acquiesce in these violations, many of which have been and are of a serious nature. Under the statute the Red Cross emblem can only be used by authority. It cannot be used in the manufacture or sale of Red Cross buttons or pins except upon such authorization. Many novelty manufacturing houses A RICH MAN About the most of anti-war agitation that this is a rich only pass current the shadow mind but the irony of when we read the first sacrifices of pigs perhaps for later, Davison, heads of the house.

Through men” and rich men with open hands of life itself. If man’s war.” then assertion that loans to farmers are now being approved at the rate of nearly $1,000,000 daily and that 25 farm loan associations are being chartered daily. Each association represents about $50,000 in loans. During its first year it has divided the country into 12 federal land bank districts. The banks have been established, appraisers have been named and a few of the lands have been valued by these appraisers. And this matter of appraisement—there is the rub. Orchardists of California are complaining of the long time required to secure action from the Berkeley bank and the uncertainty of the valuations. The appraisers of the bank were discussing the matter of orchard valuations when the recent unpleasantness in the management of the bank at Berkeley occurred and so far as can be learned from the outside all loans were delayed. In any case, applications made nearly six months ago to the Berkeley bank are still unnoticed other than formal notification that the application was received and would be given attention. Orchardists of Southern California who are members of local federal farm loan boards hope that by gathering together and discussing these perplexing questions they can bring their grievances to the attention of the Berkeley board so as to receive more attention than if each member acted individually. To further this end they gathered at Pomona last week. There were representatives present from farm loan boards at Pomona, Ontario, Claremont, San Dimas, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Anaheim, Glendora, Fontana, La Verne, Covina, Whittier, La Habra, Baldwin Park, Upland, Riverside, Chino and Dominguez. This meeting was really the outcome of a former meeting held also in Pomona on July 14. At that time, which was before the change in administration at Berkeley, the matter was discussed and a series of resolutions adopted. Amongst the points raised are: "Lands cultivated and improved, especially with orchards, are of many times greater value than raw, unimproved land, or land cultivated to other products, because of their fixity, endurance and the income from such improvements." "The importance of the orchard industry is vast, not only to the section of the country in which such industry is carried on, but as well to the nation." BRIEF NOTES Pomona and Ontario canneries are running full handed. One cannery at Pomona is paying a $3000 labor bill daily. Citrus growers anticipate that prices of the next year's crop will be violating the law regarding it. While much of this misuse of the emblem is unintentional and through excessive zeal, the National Red Cross can no longer acquiesce in these violations, many of which have been and are of a serious nature. Under the statute the Red Cross emblem can only be used by authority. It cannot be used in the manufacture or sale of Red Cross buttons or pins except upon such authorization. Many novelty manufacturing houses and stores, taking advantage of the great increase of popular interest in the Red Cross, as well as the growth in membership to nearly four millions, have put on sale large quantities of Red Cross pins, postcards, and devices. An equally common abuse has been on the covers of patriotic songs and popular magazines. It is the feeling of Red Cross officials that the Red Cross emblem should be regarded much as the flag is regarded. Under the law and the Geneva International Agreement, the emblem is set apart for the work of relief and mercy. It should not be used in any way to detract from that high office. Its use to stimulate the sale of magazines, songs, postcards, or other articles under the guise of patriotism, therefore, should not be regarded as proper. Provisions of the law are as follows: "It shall be unlawful for any person, corporation, or association other than the American National Red Cross and its duly authorized employees and agents and the army and navy sanitary and hospital authorities of the United States, for the purpose of trade or as an advertisement to induce the sale of any article whatsoever or for any business or charitable purpose, to use within the territory of the United States and its exterior possessions, the emblem of the Greek Red Cross on a white ground, or any sign or insignia made or colored in imitation thereof, or of the words 'Red Cross' or any combination of these words." "Lands cultivated and improved, especially with orchards, are of many times greater value than raw, unimproved land, or land cultivated to other products, because of their fixity, endurance and the income from such improvements. "The importance of the orchard industry is vast, not only to the section of the country in which such industry is carried on, but as well to the nation, and by reason thereof merits a very favorable and early consideration of the applications of the various persons engaged in such industry for loans from the said bank. It is understood that loans have already been granted by said bank to applicants not engaged in the orchard industry, and those who are located in other sections of said bank's district than that of Southern California. "It has been learned that an appraiser for said bank who has been authorized to estimate the value of lands aforementioned has intimated that the orchard lands of Southern California will be appraised at a figure very much less than productive value per acre. "Such lands are easily of the value of from $800 to $3000 per acre, according to the age and variety of the trees, and first class security at such valuation, and so considered by local banks which are in touch with their true values. "Any smaller valuation would be prohibitive to the orchard industry to obtain the privileges and benefits of the federal farm loan act upon which they have so strongly relied and counted." Further, that a committee be appointed, which committee reported at this meeting, as indicated above. The chairman of the meeting was L. W. Cushman of Ontario, and the secretary was J. K. Brown of Ana- BRIEF NOTES Pomona and Ontario canneries are running full handed. One cannery at Pomona is paying a $3000 labor bill daily. Citrus growers anticipate that prices of the next year's crop will be the largest ever received for citrus fruits. Orange and lemon growers of San Dimas, have received $850,000 for this year's fruit. The government crop report estimates the present season's output of beans from this state at 6,480,000 bushels, as compared with about 4,000,000 bushels last year. Thousands of head of Texas cattle will be transferred to grazing sections of Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama. This great movement of livestock will be under direction of agents of the department of agriculture. Secretary Houston of the department of agriculture has ordered an amendment of regulations governing interstate shipment of live stock which provides that swine given "simultaneous" inoculation shall be held under supervision at public stock yards not less than seven days. Formerly the regulations called for a 14-day quarantine. A total decrease of 115,005,000 in the world's meat producing animals is shown in a comparison of present with pre-war conditions. While the increase of cattle in the United States was 7,090,000 during this period, the total world decrease was 28,080,000. Sheep decreased 3,000,000 in the United States, and 54,500 in the world. Hogs increased 6,275,000 in the United States, but decreased 32,425,000 in the world supply. A RICH MAN'S WAR About the most disgusting blather of anti-war agitation is the charge that this is a rich man's war. It can only pass among the ignorant, the shadow blinded, or the fanatic, it isn't necessary to discuss its fallacy, but the irony of it just now is bitter when we read that among the very first sacrifices of the war is the crippling perhaps for life, of a young aviator, Davison, son of one of the heads of the house of Morgan. Young Davison had everything in the world to live for, materially speaking—youth, wealth, social advantage, health, opportunity, education. He might easily have gone into a safe branch of public service if he felt impelled to make the gesture of patriotism. Instead he chose the most perilous and the most urgently necessary service, aviation, and for months has been giving money and time to its development and to his own training. Now he has paid the price of as pure a patriotic impulse as any man feels. His sacrifice is a rebuke to the shirk in every walk of life and an inspiration to every one of his fellow Americans. About the same time Aviator Fleishman, another young man of wealth and position, was killed in the same training. Other such men have died in France in the same cause and more will follow them. In Chicago the sons of "rich men" were among the first to come forward and are to be found in every branch of the service. Two of the sons of one of the leading bankers are in the perilous air service. The son of a member of one of the great mercantile houses is in that service. Throughout the country "rich men" and rich men's sons are giving with open hands of wealth, of service, of life itself. If this makes a "rich man's war" then this is a rich man's war.

Gov. Stephens called a meeting held in the state capital on Monday to consider effective means of cooperating with the United States department of agriculture in carrying out the purposes for which an emergency appropriation of $10,000,000 was made by congress. Part of this $10,000,000 appropriation is to be used through the state agricultural colleges. In calling the conference Gov. Stephens suggests discussion of: Extending the farm bureau system, increasing the number of women demonstrators of fruit and vegetable canning and other forms of food conservation, and extending the work of boys' and girls' clubs in the public schools. Working in conjunction with these colleges are 3,000 county agents working under 3,000 farm bureaus in 3,000 counties of the United States. California is allotted something over $100,000 which will be administered by the university. We believe no state has responded to the country's call for troops and for food more heartily than has California. Our response for another year should be even more patriotic.

DISSATISFIED WITH FARM LOAN ASSOCIATIONS Many Wintersburg Applications Refused, Others Cut Down The Wintersburg farm loan association have at last received the returns from their applications for loans. Two-thirds of the members were refused, and not all of the remainder were allowed the sum asked for. There seems to be quite a feeling of dissatisfaction in regard to the whole proceedings. One man who was allowed $500 less than the sum stated in the application, will not accept any. The La Bolsa association seems to have fared some better, nearly all getting loans, though not in every instance as much as desired. They had a meeting Tuesday night at Samuel Price's and called another for Tuesday, at which the secretary-treasurer, H. O. Gardner, will be present. The farm loan associations were organized early in the year, and even now there is no money at hand, only the notice that the applications have been accepted or refused. A gaily decorated string of autos from Newport Beach paraded the streets of Anaheim Thursday. The occupants attracted attention by blowing trumpets, and streamers announced that the beach town was gliving a free fish barbecue on Admission Day.

CANNERY IS BUSY The Placentia cannery started on tomatoes Wednesday, with about 25 women and girls at the tables, and a dozen men in the different departments. Thursday about 40 girls were at work and this number will be increased a little later. A Courier representative visited the cannery and declares he never saw so many tomatoes before in his life. They are all of good quality, too, large well formed and evenly ripened. The new machinery is not running as smoothly as it will later, but everything considered, a propitio start is being made and a good run is anticipated. As the new equipment was installed, and the new building put up, particular attention was paid to sanitary conditions, and everything put out by the Placentia cannery is going to be absolutely clean and wholesome.
