SOME MERITORIOUS BILLS PASSED While Important Legislation to Farmers of California Receives Governor's Veto. Out of the forty-five bills affecting the farmer introduced into the last session of the state legislature exactly one-third or fifteen were passed and signed by the governor, thus becoming laws. Of the remaining thirty-two-thirds, or twenty, failed to pass both houses, while the other ten which received favorable consideration, failed of signature by the governor and automatically became pocket vetoes. Bills introduced but failing to pass both houses probably need but little consideration in this report, although the list includes a number of special merit which failed either on account of lack of support or because of appropriations carried. This being a year of retrenchment, bills carrying appropriations had an especially difficult time. Among the meritorious bills included in this list may be mentioned a bill to increase the minimum compensation of horticultural inspectors to four dollars per day and commissioners to six dollars; an emergency appropriation to fight new dangerous pests or diseases; the Glenn County Farm bureau sheep-killing dog bill; a bill appropriating money for the study of tractors and agricultural machinery at the university farm, and one providing for high school tractor courses under the state board of education. A survey of the list of bills passed but becoming pocket vetoes reveals some very interesting and some imme- between the elbow and the wrist.

YUCAIPA APPLE CROP BREAKS ALL RECORDS Yucaipa Valley is located immediately east of the city of Redlands and has an area o fabout 20,000 acres, practically every acre of which is fertile and almost the entire area is in cultivation. The valley is "L" shaped, extending about six miles east and west, with an altitude varying from 2000 to 2800 feet, and the foot of the "L" extending north through the gateway to the Mill Creek boulevard, the altitude reaching 3400 feet. The valley has well earned its title, "The Valley of Transformation," for until 1910 there was not an apple tree in the valley proper, while today there are more than 000 acres of splendid apple orchards, 4000 acres of which are now laden with a crop estimated to exceed a quarter of a million boxes of first grade winter apples. When in full bearing, that is to say, when the trees are twelve years old, a conservative estimate gives six boxes per tree, or three million boxes. In addition to the apple orchards there are several hundred acres of pears, peaches, plums and cherries, including the famous "Cherrycroft," the largest cherry orchard in Southern California. The cherry trees are nine years old in this orchard. A single tree on the Peters & Evans ranch a few years ago yielded 440 pounds of cherries. The annual rainfall at Yucaipa averages twenty-two inches on the lower levels, thirty at the upper end of the valley, and thirty-six inches on the mash bait is best for the cage of the garden fourth pound peck of dry bark or cheap molk water.

A survey of the list of bills passed but becoming pocket vetoes reveals some very interesting and some important legislation which the governor or saw fit to veto. Among such bills are the pure seed or seed labeling bill, an appropriation for sending an entomologist abroad to seek parasites for the mealy bug, a very important bill providing for the organization of drainage districts, legislation requiring the use of pure-bred bulls on the range, squirrel extermination districts, a plant disease survey, and a coast counties experiment station. Bills Becoming Laws King Estray Bill—Act becomes effective on majority vote in any supervisorial district. Amends present estray law, making it possible for an owner to take up stray stock and hold for expense only when his place is entirely surrounded by a four-foot three-wire fence, or its equivalent. Pure Feed Bill—Covers all kinds of mixed and patent feeds requiring accurate labelling showing net weight, name and address of manufacturer, per cent of crude fiber, protein at and ash, specific constituents, percentage of corn cobs, rice hulls, ground alfalfa and other ingredients. Deciduous Fruit Investigations—Provides $100,000 for the investigation of problems of deciduous fruit culture, including nuts, olives and figs. Apple Standardization—Amends the present law, establishing standard container. Fruit and Vegetable Standardization—Supplants present law with much more stringent and exact measures, establishing standards and standard packages for the greater part of our common fruits and vegetables. Defines maturity standards for grapes and oranges and establishes inspectors. Potato Seed Certification—Appropriates fund to undertake potato seed certification work. Riverside University Farm—Appropriates $30,000 for initial payment on lands for the university farm in Riverview. INSECT PESTS IN THE HOME GARDENS It is unfortunate that most of the insect pets of the vegetable garden chose midsummer, vacation time, for their onslaught against the plants brought to maturity with so much care by the gardener. At this time of the year the various pests are at their best, doing their worst, and those who want to reap the full benefit of their planting and cultivation labors will not relax their vigilance against their flying and crawling foes, writes Arthur E. Henderley. Clean culture helps wonderfully in keeping down the garden pests. Keep the weeds out of the garden and also keep them clear from the edges of the patch.

The annual rainfall at Ycaipa averages twenty-two inches on the lower levels, thirty at the upper end of the valley, and thirty-six inches on the watershed adjoining. During the years 1899-1901 live stock was driven from the vicinity of Chino to Yucaipa Valley lo feed. With the abundant rainfall and through cultivation, very little irrigation is required, but Yucaipa has a supply water both from mountain streams, springs and a series of wells on the mesa lands. The valley is said to be underlaid with water-bearing gravel, bringing unlimited quantities of snow water from the lofty ranges to the east. There is an occasional light snowfall in winter which gives just "a touch of seasons" for a day or two. The red winter apple produced in the Yucaipa Valley is excellent in color, flavor and texture. Trees begin to bear at five years and are in full bearing at twelve. Eight-year-old trees should yield four boxes, increasing to eight or ten at full bearing. A well-handled orchard should at full bearing produce a crop value of $750 to $1000 per acre.

CLAIMED WAS IMMUNE FROM BITE OF SERPENT Funeral Occurred Few Days After Holy Roller's Crazy Demonstration With Rattler. Cleveland Harrison, thirty-two years old, a citizen of Colbert county, Ala., is dead after two days suffering from the bites of a rattlesnake at a meeting of the so-called "Holy Rollers" near Tuscumbia. He permitted himself to be bitten to prove that God will save those who trust in Him. The minister stated there was in the congregation one who had such great faith that he would allow a rattlesnake to bite him, feeling sure he would be immune from the poison, as St. Paul at one time was immune from the bite of a serpent. Harrison accepted the invitation, and a box containing a rattlesnake, measuring three or four inches around was opened in view of the congregation. Harrison caught the snake just below the neck and it struck him five times in rapid succession on the arm Clean culture helps wonderfully in keeping down the garden pests. Keep the weeds out of the garden and also keep them clear from the edges of the patch. Many insects spend part of their life cycle on weeds fringing the garden. And do not allow the weeds to lay where they are cut. Rake them up and put them into the compost bed, or burn them. Slugs and snails like dark, damp corners. They delight to hide under boards or on fences protected from the light by vines and shrubs. See that none of these enemies of your garden make nightly trips from these sheltered spots to your tomato or cucumber vines. A dust mulch is probably the best means of keeping down the clumps and snails. The are unable to crawl over a ridge of dust. The home vegetable gardener who buys a four-bit sprayer is wise. Most of the pestiferous insects can be controlled by spraying. Those who raise vegetables for the market very often buy a compressed air sprayer, which is almost essential for commercial gardening. Garden pests may be divided into two classes, the sucking and the biting insects. Plant lice, or aphis, thrips, plant bugs and red spiders come under the first class, and beetles, grasshoppers, ants, cutworms, army worms and tomato worms belong to the second class. External poison is of no use with the sucking insects; they must be killed by suffocation or burning with a contact spray. For these insects kerosene emulsion, or soap and kerosene mixed, lime sulphur, nicotine solutions and soap sprays are recommended. Arsenical sprays are best for the biting insects, and for some forms of this class of insects a poisoned bran ANAHEIM GAZETTE Immediate lands and has acres, practicable fertile and cultivation, extending west, with an extension to the Millide reaching its title, acquisition," for an apple tree today there of splendid vines of which are estimated in million boxes.

Calpa aver- the lower end of the series on the mash bait is recommended. This is best for the cutworm, that arch enemy of the gardener. Mix thoroughly one-fourth pound of white arsenic with a peck of dry bran. Stir a pint of syrup or cheap molasses into five quarts of water. Mix the two and let stand for several hours. In the evening scatter this bait thinly along the rows or around the bases of the plants. Add chopped lemons to the bait if grasshoppers are to be caught. Keep the chickens out of the garden while the poisoned bran lays on the ground. The aphids are probably the most common garden pest. These sucking insects destroy cucumber and melon vines and have been known to attack tomatoes, potatoes, beets, lettuce, spinach and pens. Spray with soap emulsion. Be sure to get the emulsion on the under side of the leaves where the aphids thrive. A good formula for taking care of these aphids is the following: Two teaspoonfuls of nicotine sulphate, one-inch cube of laundry soap and a gallon of water. Mix thoroughly. Squash bugs may not be controlled by sprays, and must be hand-picked. Watch for their nymphs. The bugs usually gather in trash or under boards. For cabbage worms spray with the arsenate of lead solution, three pounds to fifty gallons of water, combined with two pounds of dissolved soap. For gophers get a small vial of white arsenic, cut carrots, parsnips or sweet potatoes into cubes and insert the polson into incisions in the cubes. Find the entrance of the burrow and place three or four pieces, covering the hole afterwards. ROOTSTALKS IN CALIFORNIA One of the very interesting things happening just now in the world is the indignant boycott of Japanese goods by the Chinese people, a form of protest which is evidently giving Japan cause for pretty serious thought. So long as the wisdom of China maintains a peaceful boycott there is, seemingly little that Japan can do but meditate on the fact that about 75 per cent of her exports go normally to China, and wonder how long China will stick. Meantime the Chinese newspapers counsel the public against any action that can be construed as a departure from this peaceful procedure and in corner of Vermont avenue and Seventh street, Los Angeles. In the automobile besides the above mentioned were Robert H. Boney, bookkeeper for the Wickersheim Implement Company, Ted Wickersheim and Miss Franks of Hilo, Hawaii, who has been visiting the Wickersheim family. Mr. Boney was driving the car, the party returning from Long Beach, intending going to Hollywood to call on some friends and then driving to the Southern Pacific depot, where Miss Franks was to take the train for San Francisco on her way back to Hilo. At the street intersection mentioned above, the Wickersheim party were driving north about 2:30 in the afternoon when a car going west on Seventh street at a teriffic rate of speed, shot ROOTSTALKS IN CALIFORNIA One of the perplexing problems so closely touching the fruit growing business of the State and the entire Pacific Slope, partly as an aftermath of the great war, is the threatened deficiency in rootstocks. To the fruit grower this question is one of vast importance. It was upon these sturdy, resistana rootstocks imported from Northern France and Belgium that he budded his millions of pears and apples, for up to this time American horticulturists have utilized these famous rootstocks to the exclusion of native products. Now we are confronted with two conditions which, although temporarily working to great disadvantage in producing a shortage of imported rootstocks, must in the end serve a good purpose through the stimulation of the production of such stocks in the United States: Many of the sections of France and Belgium could not now furnish these rootstocks owing to their own needs and the fact that the departments given over to the growing of rootstocks have suffered devastation, and such importations are now proscribed through the enactment of Federal Quarantine No. 37 of June 1, 1919, which is intended as an added safeguard against the introduction of noxious plant pests and plant diseases which have produced such great economic loss to American horticulture and agriculture in the past. Recently a bill was introduced in the house of representatives by Hon Norman J.

The question is asked every day: "Can I grow such and such a fruit or crop in California?" The answer is: "You can!"

Mr. Boney was driving the car, the party returning from Long Beach, intending going to Hollywood to call on some friends and then driving to the Southern Pacific depot, where Miss Franks was to take the train for San Francisco on her way back to Hilo. At the street intersection mentioned above, the Wickersheim party were driving north about 2:30 in the afternoon when a car going west on Seventh street at a teriffic rate of speed, shot in front of the Wickersheim car and Mr. Boney, in a desperate attempt to avoid a collision, turned the car sharply to the left, the rear wheel striking the street button, overturning the car. He had put on the emergency brake and the car was nearly stopped when it overturned. The whole party were thrown out. Mrs. Wickersheim struck the pavement on her forehead, rendering her unconscious and badly bruising her forehead. Mrs. Boney was the most seriously injured. In attempting to resist the fall, she put out her left hand, which twisted under her weight, breaking the bones of the arm at the wrist. Miss Mildred had one knee cap badly bruised. Mr. Boney, Miss Franks and Ted, all escaped with a bad shaking up and a few slight bruises. A passing auto picked up the party and took them to the receiving hospital. Mr. Wickersheim was notified by phone and hurried to the city in his powerful car and had his wife and Mrs. Boney taken to St. Vincent's hospital Miss Mildred, Ted and Mr. Boney returned to Fullerton with him. Miss Franks was not much worse for her experience and caught her train to San Francisco in time to catch her boat for Hawaii. Mr. Wickersheim went into the city later and brought Mrs. Wickersheim home. Mrs. Boney is still confined in the hospital for the time being. She was reported doing nicely. The party were traveling in a car which had been secured for the special trip and not in the big Wickersheim car. The automobile which was the indirect cause of the accident to the Wickershelm party, continued to speed on its way, the driver never stopping to assist the unfortunate ones who met with the accident. Although there were several bystanders at the corner who witnessed the accident, none of them secured the number of the speeding car, which was estimated to be going at the rate of 35 or 40 miles an hour. Highly sensible words have been spoken by the Philadelphia Public Ledger about what it justly calls the "hublime nonsense" of saying that this nation or that "won the war." As the Ledger points out, the phrase was a useful slogan, while the war was in Norman J.

The question is asked every day: "Can I grow such and such a fruit or crop in California?" The answer is: "You can!" The wealth of varied soil conditions, the climate, usually lacking the extremes of temperature suffered by other parts of the United States and Eastern Europe, the natural barriers afforded by the mountain ranges on the east and the ocean on the west, all contribute to produce ideal conditions for the production of American rootstocks. It is fortunate at this time that steps already have been taken to promote this important phase which contributes so largely to the interest of our fruit growing industry. Opportunity is knocking at the doors of the nurserymen of California. Here can be grown the rootstocks not only for the ever increasing demands of the state but for those of the United States. Many nurserymen have been quick to see the possibilities for the future in this direction, as the large plantings will attest, and there is every reason to believe that the near future will furnish the ultimate satisfactory solution. and the state of California will contribute rootstocks not only to the state itself, but to the entire country. NOTES AND COMMENTS The Directory of the Sixty-Sixth Congress has gone to the government printing office in Washington, but the copy has evidently been read by a newspaper man, and the American public can know, in advance of publication. Highly sensible words have been spoken by the Philadelphia Public Ledger about what it justly calls the "hublime nonsense" of saying that this nation or that "won the war." As the Ledger points out, the phrase was a useful slogan, while the war was in progress, to help on various kinds of war work; every effort to attain a specific object, from the sale of thrift stamps to economizing at the sugar bowl, went better because the thought that it would "win the war" was emphatically advertised; but no sensible person believed that any one thing or any one nation could do more than help. Everything was needed, and now that the war is over no reasonable man can say that one nation surpassed any of the others. More than that, the idea itself runs thoughtlessly counter to the behavior of gentlemen and is altogether unsportsmanlike. It is as if the friends of each member of a football team should claim the glory of winning a game especially for that one player. The game is over and the whole team deserves undivided credit.—Christian Science Monitor. NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH IN AUTO ACCIDENT Well-Known Fullerton People Victims of Speeding Autoist's Carelessness. Mrs. William J. Wickersheim, her daughter Mildred and Mrs. Robert H. Boney, of Fullerton, all sustained quite serious injuries and narrowly escaped being killed as the result of an automobile accident Sunday last near the forbidden pleasure. Then and there he decided that the part of wisdom was to blend rules and discipline with common sense and human nature, and go to the circus himself. The automobile which was the indirect cause of the accident to the Wickersheim party, continued to speed on its way, the driver never stopping to assist the unfortunate ones who met with the accident. Although there were several bystanders at the corner who witnessed the accident, none of them secured the number of the speeding car, which was estimated to be going at the rate of 35 or 40 miles an hour. DEATH SUDDENLY STRIKES PLACENTIA OIL MAN Heart Failure, Following Extraction of Teeth, the Cause. Shock, following the extraction of a number of teeth, is believed to have been responsible for the sudden death at Fullerton Friday afternoon of Samuel P. Folkers, an oil well pumper on the Amalgamated lease, and whose residence is at Placentia. On Thursday Folkers had ten teeth pulled and Friday afternoon returned to have the dentist complete the work of removing all of his teeth preparatory to substituting a set of false ones. After leaving the dentist's office he went to his automobile standing against the curb in front of the office of the Auto Club of Southern California. He collapsed before he got the machine under way and passersby, noticing that he was in distress, went to his assistance. He was carried into the club office and expired a few minutes later. Coroner C. D. Brown held an Inquest at the McAulay undertaking parlors Saturday morning and death was as- VICTORY OIL MOTORS SIZES 12 TO 75 H.P.

It is testimony like the following that has placed Doan's Kidney Pills so far above competitors. When people right here at home raise their voice in praise there is no room left for doubt. Ask your neighbor. Read the public statement of an Anaheim citizen: Louis Dauser, retired farmer, 425 W. Center Street, says: "I suffered with sharp stitches in my back that took me without warning, leaving my back so weak, late and painful I could hardly hold up. Believing this trouble was due to disordered kidneys, I used Doan's Kidney Pills. They removed the complaint. I have depended on this medicine whenever I have had any pain or lameness in my back since." STAL USES DOAN'S Over two years later Mr. Dauser said: "I stain my faith in Doan's Kidney Pills and receive the best of results whenever I use them." Price 600 at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Dauser had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.
