FACTS ABOUT THE PROTECTION DISTRICT MR. COLLINS, NOMINEE FOR TRUSTEE GIVES OUTLINE OF PROPOSED WORK CAN BE CONSTRUCTED WITHIN THE LIMIT OF THE SUM ESTIMATED Editor Gazette: It has been said by the opponents of this protection district and others that the work as outlined cannot be done for $90,750, and I am of the opinion that it can be done for that amount or less. I was elected secretary of the committee that was appointed by the Richfield-Yorba chamber of commerce to put in protection work last year along the north bank of the Santa Ana river. This committee put in 4200 lineal feet of piling, ten feet apart with 30 barbed wires thereon and in some places brush put in behind at an actual cost of $5448.19. This included all expenses for collecting and distributing the money and for letting contracts, etc., for the work, which goes to show that river protection work is not as expensive as some estimators would have you believe it to be. The proposed work to be covered by piling is 18,600 lineal feet or about four and a half times what has been put in. We put in cedar piles, the proposed work calls for reinforced concrete piling which is better because of weight, will not wash out as easily, eliminates dan- committee has received no such money. With reference to disincorporation of the district, the California state legislature at its last session passed a law with reference to river protection districts established under the act that the Anaheim-Yorba district was established and in substance is as follows: "To disincorporate a petition may be filed with the county board of supervisors who will call an election and if a majority of the qualified electors in any such district shall vote to disincorporate such district shall then be disincorporated." This would be practically a referendum on the trustees and if any assessments levied by them were considered unjust or not needed they could in this way be removed from office within thirty days from the time of calling the election, notwithstanding the statements and assertions of the opponents to the contrary. No case of court record can be produced where a storm water district has ever been held liable for damages where an effort has been made to confine the flood waters within the original channel, notwithstanding the statements of the opponents to the contrary. Damages have been allowed only in cases where the waters were diverted to a new channel or to another course. Mr. Mason and his colleagues make the statement that the trustees for river protection were nominated by some 15 or 20 members of the Anaheim board of trade and the Richfield-Yorba chamber of commerce. They make no statement concerning the nomination of the opposing trustees and no doubt they consider themselves self-styled dictators who need no nominations from boards of trade or chambers of commerce. Letters are being sent broadcast throughout the district signed by Mr. W. G. Mason who is a candidate of the PREDICTIVE PRICE WALK REPRESENTATIONS WILL ANGELESS SHORT CROP IN ED TO BOO CALIFORNIA On Monday next of the various waivers the California Wideclation will meet set the price for t With the crop in below normal and about normal, top eral increase in modities, high product are antic C.

The proposed work to be covered by piling is 18,600 lineal feet or about four and a half times what has been put in. We put in cedar piles, the proposed work calls for reinforced concrete piling which is better because of weight, will not wash out as easily, eliminates danger from fire and the longer life of the cement pile. Last year we put in the piling in five different locations from the old Yorba bridge site to the Santa Fe bridge on the Olive branch, and in some locations in putting down the piling found that we struck rocks and boulders from 14 to 16 feet and for the proposed work the cement piling has been estimated at a 22 foot length, which, after taking soundings, will be made the required length for the different locations to give an average penetration of 16 feet, some places more, some less. This piling will be furnished by a reliable contractor, put in at $25 per pile, ten feet apart, will make a cost of $2.50 per lineal foot for piling. Galvanized barbed wire at the price given by wholesalers of $0.05½ per pound can be furnished and put on for less than 20 cents per lineal foot. 10,500 cubic yards of dirt, the required number to complete the embankment as specified for the proposed work at 15 cents per yard will cost per lineal foot 85 cents, making a sum total for this work less than $3.55 per lineal foot for 18,600 feet, $66,060, and would leave a balance of approximately $25,000 to complete the work at and above the Yorba bridge site and for incidentals. A letter from G. W. Harris, chief engineer of the Santa Fe railway, has been published in the local papers in which he stated that the work as proposed for the Anaheim-Yorba storm water district could not be done for $90,750. The following are extracts from Mr. Harris' letter to the writer in reply to his assertion upon the estimate of the work: "If you have a reliable contractor (which we have) to give you a figure less than I estimated then of course any figures which I may have given you would not apply and your total estimate may furnish all the money that you need. Any work along the Santa Ana river would in my judgment require iner protection were nominated by some 15 or 20 members of the Anaheim board of trade and the Richfield-Yorba chamber of commerce. They make no statement concerning the nomination of the opposing trustees and no doubt they consider themselves self-styled dictators who need no nominations from boards of trade or chambers of commerce. Letters are being sent broadcast throughout the district signed by Mr. W. G. Mason who is a candidate of the opponents for trustee asking for a donation of twenty-five ($.25) cents per acre and remit to Geo. H. Barry or W. G. Mason. The district contains approximately 13,000 acres and at 25 cents per acre this will amount to $3,250. Think of it gentlemen and property owners! An effort is being made to draw from the pockets of the unwary the sum total of $3,250.00, over one-half as much as was used for protecting 4200 feet of river bank last year. No statement is made in these letters for what purpose such money is to be used. The candidates for trustees of the Anaheim-Yorba district and who are for river protection are not asking for any money to pay their present salaries and when we are elected as we expect to be on the 28th of September, we will serve as trustee in this good work (the law provides that trustees must serve without salary) and when we call upon the property owners of the district they can rest assured that such money is to be used to protect their families and their property and not to pay for the services of so-called stage actors who are endeavoring to tell them what they do not want. In conclusion I will say to the electors of the Anaheim-Yorba storm water district that I want river protection and that I want it now at the least possible cost for an adequate protection and if elected trustee I will to the best of my ability honestly and judiciously assist in directing the affairs of the Anaheim-Yorba Storm Water District.

Very truly yours, G. F. COLLINS. Richfield, Sept. 24. A Los Angeles low story on an inter-Thorpe: C. Thorpe, manning Walnut Grove returned from a bounty eastern state rangelences for harvest which he says that the people sourii river have power, and he finds good prices for this fall and wild walnuts. On Monday, O Walnut Growers' notice its price fell last year but prices of all creased since that crop is lighter than Mr. Thorpe has raised from France saying crop there is 40 mal so anticipation local walnuts. This year's walnuts smaller than those years, but the quail The nuts are plus light in color and harvest is about usual and it will tolerate. The hot wave on walnuts has jumped from Ventura county from Riverside county while Los Angeles from 3026 to 2266 county from 3339. Last year the C was worth $4,400 will probably be wilt California Walnut does not mature nuts grown in tha majority of it has a new goose for $90,750. The following are extracts from Mr. Harris' letter to the writer in reply to his assertion upon the estimate of the work: "If you have a reliable contractor (which we have) to give you a figure less than I estimated then of course any figures which I may have given you would not apply and your total estimate may furnish all the money that you need. Any work along the Santa Ana river would in my judgment require individual treatment and I would not attempt to offer a solution without going into the matter thoroughly, which I do not have time to do at the present time." The boundary lines of the Anaheim-Yorba district is as uniform, direct and compact as it was possible to have them under the existing circumstances. Beginning at the old Yorba bridge site the north boundary line runs along the north line of the Santa Fe railway company right of way to the intersection of that road and the boundary line of the Orangethorpe district, thence along the south line of the Orangethorpe protection district to its western boundary. This is not a very direct line but the committee could not dispose of it otherwise, as we could not cover any of the territory taken in by the Orange-thorpe district. From the western point it runs south and southwest to conform with the boundary line of the Garden Grove district. Thence back to the Yorba bridge site along the Santa Ana river. Statements have been made by the opponents that parties along the boundary line had been let out of the district by paying certain amounts to the Anaheim-Yorba committee. These statements are absolutely false, the PICK WILD BLACKBERRIES Wild blackberries picked by children will help the army and navy to get the 11,000,000 pounds of blackberry jam they must have. In view of the shortage of cultivated blackberries, the United States department of agriculture urges the women and girls and boys to gather all the wild berries they can find, and supply commercial canning establishments. Blackberry jam is particularly desirable because it has medicinal qualities which counteract certain intestinal troubles, in addition to its welcome place in the diet as a sweet. The wild fruit is not as pulpy and is likely to be more seedy than the cultivated varieties, but there is an abundance in many states. The difficulty in getting help on a commercial scale has prevented the gathering of the wild berries, but if the children can be enlisted to do their patriotic part it will give the packers a chance to supply what the military authorities need. It is also pointed out that at the prevailing prices they may get good money returns for their time and labor. In each community some local grower should be able to learn the name of a manufacturer who may be willing to buy the berries. In New York, for example, the canneries are so numerous throughout the state that little trouble should be experienced in finding a market. Very truly yours, G. F. COLLINS. Richfield, Sept. 24.

With the crop in France 40 per cent below normal and the California crop about normal, together with the general increase in the cost of all commodities, high prices for the state product are anticipated. According to C. Thorpe, manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, the state crop will be about normal, Los Angeles and Orange counties being the only counties in which the yield will fall short of the average production. A Los Angeles paper carries the following story on the walnut situation, following an interview with Manager Thorpe: C. Thorpe, manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, has returned from a business trip through the eastern states and is making arrangements for the English walnut harvest which begins this week. He says that the people east of the Missouri river have a tremendous buying power, and he forecasts remarkably at prices ranging from 45 to 50 cents per pound. The grower now gets more for his culls than he got when the sold at 10 cents per pound, and they don't interfere with the sale of his finer grades. It is worthy of notice that, although the production of walnuts in this state increased to the extent of 5,000,000 pounds in five years, the importations increased 10,200,000 pounds in that same period. This state now has 40,-670 acres bearing walnuts and 16,000 that will begin bearing walnuts soon. During the past two or three years there have been extensive plantings of walnuts in Oregon, Northern and Central California. The industry has been developed to the extent of thousands of acres, but these new trees will not come into bearing for years. Around Chino and in the San Fernando Valley extensive plantings have been made, but Mr. Thorpe says that even these recent developments are insufficient to give the California walnut leadership. He thinks that there is big money in walnut growing here in the future, and doubts that the business will be overdone. SUGAR FACTORY MEN GET AN INCREASE Wages of All Workers in County Are Raised 5 Cents per Hour The 1200 or more employees of the five sugar factories in Orange county have had their wages voluntarily increased by the sugar companies. The increase will average about 5 cents an hour for each employee, which means that the payroll of each plant will be increased between $600 and $700 per 24 hour day. As the most of the factory men put in a 12 hour shift, it means an increase of 60 cents a day or $4.20 per week. The five factories will average about 240 employees. MR. MASON'S STATEMENTS DISSECTED BY PROTECTIONISTS Committee Gives Some Pertinent Facts Regarding Storm Water District Editor Gazette: Mr. Mason, chairman of the anti-protectionists, sets forth in the Plain Dealer some matters that need attention. He says that the Anaheim-Yorba protection district does not go to the mouth of the canyon. However, it is tied to the hill at the Yorba grade, thereby saving at least $20,000, and is just as secure as though it did go to the mouth of the canyon. He says that no one in their meetings has stated that the Anaheim sugar factory is left out as they have a map which shows that it is in. This same map is possibly the one that Mr. Kelly was showing around, saying: "See that jog. That jogs around the Anaheim sugar factory and leaves it out." He says that in Los Angeles county district there is a strip 18 miles wide left out of the north end of the county. He forgot to state that this strip is some 66 miles long, as large as nearly two Orange counties. Some strip this. Then there are all the islands. He says only that is in the district which needs protection. Well! Well! How does he expect to include Olive, Orange and Santa Ana and the oil well section in a district in Orange county as these need no protection from the Santa Ana river. He says that he has it from one supervisor that the county will not help the district as it would then have to help all the others. If the county will not help a little on these districts, how then does he propose to have the county do all the work and bear all the expense of all the districts and all the multiplied work on all the washes, all the creeks and all the gullies in the county? A Los Angeles paper carries the following story on the walnut situation, following an interview with Manager Thorpe: C. Thorpe, manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, has returned from a business trip through the eastern states and is making arrangements for the English walnut harvest which begins this week. He says that the people east of the Missouri river have a tremendous buying power, and he forecasts remarkably good prices for California products this fall and winter, especially for walnuts. On Monday, Oct. 1 the California Walnut Growers' association will announce its price for nuts for this year. Last year the price was 15½ cents, but prices of all commodities have increased since then. The California crop is lighter than it was then, and Mr. Thorpe has received a cablegram from France saying that the walnut crop there is 40 per cent below normal, so he anticipates high prices for local walnuts. This year's walnuts are somewhat smaller than they were in former years, but the quality is satisfactory. The nuts are plump, the kernels are light in color and well matured. The harvest is about two weeks later than usual and it will extend through October. The hot wave last June damaged the walnuts in Southern California to some extent, and yet the crop is nearly as large as it was a year ago. Mr. Thorpe has estimated that his association will market 9455 tons or 18,910,000 pounds this season. Last year it marketed 9603 tons or 19,206,000 pounds. Los Angeles and Orange counties are the ones that fell below the average in walnut production this year. Santa Barbara, Ventura and Riverside counties increased their production. Comparing this year's estimate with last year's Santa Barbara county has jumped from 976 to 1500 tons; Ventura county from 2195 to 2595 and Riverside county from 67 to 150 tons; while Los Angeles county has dropped from 3026 to 2260 tons and Orange county from 3339 to 2950 tons. Last year the California walnut crop was worth $4,400,000. This year it will probably be worth $5,000,000. The California Walnut Growers' Association does not market all of the walnuts grown in this state, but it sells the majority of them. This year it has a new cooperative association at The 1200 or more employees of the five sugar factories in Orange county have had their wages voluntarily increased by the sugar companies. The increase will average about 5 cents an hour for each employee, which means that the payroll of each plant will be increased between $600 and $700 per hour day. As the most of the factory men put in a 12 hour shift, it means an increase of 60 cents a day or $4.20 per week. The five factories will average about 240 employees. In addition to this a bonus of 25 cents a day will be given at the end of the season. The 25 cent bonus will be given instead of the 10 per cent bonus given last year. The factory at Los Alamitos announced the increase last Tuesday, the new wage becoming effective last Wednesday. The Santa Ana Sugar Company, the Southern California Sugar company and the Holly Sugar company announced to their men Thursday afternoon that they would be given an increase. The Anaheim factory raised Thursday. Other sugar companies in Southern California also announced a 5 cent raise Thursday. TO SPREAD EXTENSION WORK THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA No longer need a student go to Berkeley to sit in the classrooms of the University of Californii. Last year and this several thousand people have attended university extension classes in San Francisco, Oakland and elsewhere around San Francisco bay. Now students are being enrolled also in Southern California for a large number of extension classes. Professors who will come to Southern California from the university, together with a number of members of the faculties of various Southern California universities and colleges, will conduct the extension classes now being organized by Miss Nadine Crump, Southern representative of the extension division. (She has been stationed by the university in Southern California, with the headquarters at 507 Union League Bldg., Second and Hill streets, Los Angeles). The extension classes in Southern California will begin their work during the week beginning October 1. Most of them will be conducted evening or Saturdays, so as to be available for people who are at He says that he has it from one supervisor that the county will not help the district as it would then have to help all the others. If the county will not help a little on these districts, how then does he propose to have the county do all the work and bear all the expense of all the districts and all the multiplied work on all the washes, all the creeks and all the gullies in the county? In a statement of the anti-trustees, they say " * * * besides holding the property of this district liable for damages to others from floods." Mr. Keech said not. Now, whom do you prefer to believe? An attorney like Mr. Keech or these pseudo jurists who have been shouting that you cannot dissolve a district when there are debts on it? The anti-protectionists declare they are for protection. Then, we all agreed on this point, we should have protection. However, they propose that we go ahead in a way that they know, and we know, that we cannot go as there is absolutely no provision of law by which we can proceed under their plan. Moreover, were it possible to proceed under their plan then it would cost you more than under the district as now organized. We propose to go ahead under the most feasible plan possible, putting in the best work that has ever been proposed for this section, the work to consist of concrete piling faced with wire and an embankment behind filled with brush between with a growth of, possibly willows, bamboo and poplars between embankment and piling. If you really want protection vote for the men who favor protection and not for a set of men who have opposed every proposition that has come up for protection and, judging their future actions by the past, will always oppose any protection. We desire to call your attention to the fact that the work on the Olive side is being put in at present and this is bound to pile more water over on you. PROTECTION COMMITTEE, R.J.SCOTT, Chairman.

Last year the California walnut crop was worth $4,400,000. This year it will probably be worth $5,000,000. The California Walnut Growers' Association does not market all of the walnuts grown in this state, but it sells the majority of them. This year it has a new cooperative association at Concord and will handle most of the nuts in that district. Mr. Thorpe can see nothing but an overwhelming prosperous year for the walnut growers. He says that the California walnut is steadily growing in favor and that it practically dominates the market now, although France, Italy and China have been sending the United States 55 per cent of her English walnut supply for many years. He says that the people prefer California nuts because their quality is the best, and that it only remains for this state to grow enough nuts to supply the entire country. In the opinion of Mr. Thorpe the greatest thing ever done by the association was the offering of shelled nuts to the trade. When the organization came into existence the markets were glutted with cull walnuts which sold for 10 cents a pound. In order to make room for the better nuts the growers took the culls off the market, and the good nuts were sold at good prices. Since then the association has been shelling the culls and selling the halves to bakers, grocers and candy makers throughout the country. Last year these halves sold for 35 cents per pound. This year about 1,500,000 pounds of them will be sold conduct the extension classes now being organized by Miss Nadine Crump, Southern representative of the extension division. (She has been stationed by the university in Southern California, with the headquarters at 507 Union League Bldg., Second and Hill streets, Los Angeles). The extension classes in Southern California will begin their work during the week beginning October 1. Most of them will be conducted evening or Saturdays, so as to be available for people who are at work during the day. A wide range of extension courses will be given, just as is true in Central California and the Bay region, where over 150 classes are at work. Professor Clark A. Kofold and Prof. S. J. Holmes will go to Los Angeles from Berkeley to conduct a class in General Biology, dealing with heredity, eugenics, and the bearing of biology on human life. Mrs. Kemper Campbell, deputy district attorney in Los Angeles, will give courses in commercial law; Thomas G. Burt, professor of philosophy in Occidental college, a course on Practical Salesmanship. P. W. Nahl, the painter will conduct a class in freehand drawing and perspective. Ira W.

FARM ADVISERS OR JOB CHASERS J. B. Neff has handed us the following clipping from the San Francisco Chronicle, which will be found of interest to Orange county farmers: Editor The Chronicle—Sir: Why farm advisers and not butcher, baker and candlestick maker advisers? Yesterday a professional advocate of the U. C. farm adviser movement called on me to assist in its promotion. My suggestion was that the U. C. should rent 500 acres in this county, put in a professor (or adviser) as manager, put in practice all the advice he had to spare and show a larger profit at the year's end than the average farmer. The professor advocate objected that, as conditions varied in every county, such demonstration farms would be needed in every county, and that would cost millions of dollars. "Cost nothing!" was my reply. The professor's (or advisers') farms would of course show a profit and bring revenue to the state. If they would not, what is the use of your advising farmers to run farms on unprofitable methods? The farmer must realize an annual profit or he cannot continue farming. If your advisers cannot take demonstration farms and run them so as to show a profit, are not they demonstrating "how not to do it?" Are they not simply job chasers, adding to the farmers' burden of taxation? EDWARD BERWICK, Pacific Grove, September 19, 1917.
