SUCCESSFUL SEASON FOR GROWERS OF HOT STUFF Record Crop of Chillies Harvested in Garden Grove District. The most profitable pimento season the farmers of Garden Grove district have ever had is nearing its close and growers are beginning to take stock of their campaign. It is believed that 2,200,000 pounds of the red peppers will be shipped out, an increase of 600,000 pounds over last year's crop. Owing to the great increase in the use of the peppers throughout the country the price has been a little better than that of last season. Garten Grove supplies practically all the pimento peppers grown in the United States and three-fourths of the dry chili consumed in the country. Pickling for dry chili starts about October 1 and continues for about five weeks. Last year seventy-five cars of 24,000 pounds each were sent out from Garden Grove. The dry chili alone was valued at $300,000. J. A. Knapp is the largest grower of dry chili, having twenty acres of the peppers growing. A factory here dries and grinds them. An important development in the growing of pimentos and chill peppers this year was the raising of many hundred tons as an intercrop. In many districts contiguous to this city owners of young citrus and walnut groves raised pimientos and green chill peppers between the tree rows. In the case of citrus trees, five rows of peppers are grown between the trees, leaving a space of eight feet around the trees. The pepper growers have found that the crop does better on a rather heavy soil than on a sandy loam, and the orchardists who have this quality of now available from the office of University Extension, Room 201 California Hall, Berkeley. This course, prepared by the federal ocer having charge of Income Taxes, Excess Profit Taxes and War Profit Taxes for the San Francisco district, will be of inestimable profit to all persons who have to make out income tax reports, in particular bookkeepers, accountants, lawyers, and bank and trust company employees and officials, who will find in Colonel Flynn's course the clearing up of obscure points in the Federal revenue act. Persons who are interested in the subject of taxation and economics in general will find in Colonel Flynn's course the clearing up of obscure points in the Federal revenue act. Persons who are interested in the subject of taxation and economics in general will find Colonel Flynn's course valuable. The correspondence course in the Income Tax as prepared by Colonel Flynn states the essential points of the law more simply and specifically than does the Revenue Act itself. It offers examples of what is and what is not taxable income. It explains precisely what deductions may be made from gross incomes in determining the net income that is taxable. During the course the instructor will give the student all possible help in making up the student's own income tax statement. The student of the course is required to answer questions on income tax problems presented in the text and in other ways is given practical instruction. The fee for the course is $6.00. MORE HIGHWAY WORK ORDERED BY SUPERVISORS hundred tons as an intercrop. In many districts contiguous to this city owners of young citrus and walnut groves raised pimentos and green chili peppers between the tree rows. In the case of citrus trees, five rows of peppers are grown between the trees, leaving a space of eight feet around the trees. The pepper growers have found that the crop does better on a rather heavy soil than on a sandy loam, and the orchardists who have this quality of soil have been rewarded with heavy crops. Most of the intercrop men have found that it pays best to sow the seed in the field and thin out, rather than to raise the seed in frames and transplant. The planting is done in April and late in June, the plats that are weeded out being placed in the spots where none have grown, thus getting an ideal stand. The peppers, too, get set back by transplanting, and those which are allowed to stand in the field ripen from two to four weeks ahead of those which are transplanted. The peppers continue to bear until frost puts an end to their career, usually about Thanksgiving. Sometimes, however, the peppers continue to grow until the Christmas holidays, when the growers reap a rich harvest, as the demand for fresh pimentos is greatest at that season. Water is not allowed to touch the plants when irrigating, and the pimientos and other peppers are set on ridges two feet across and about five inches high. The water is allowed to stand in the furrows for at least twelve hours, and subirrigation attends to the watering of the plants. Mexicans like chill gathering better than beet work, and there is always a supply of Mexican labor for the pepper fields. The pickers carry sacks, pull off the red, perfect pimientos by hand and carry the full sacks to the cannery or wagon. In the case of chills raised for dry uses, the peppers are gathered by the wagon load, the wagon being driven between the rows and the red chills being thrown into it. The load is then taken to the evaporator, dried and ground into chill powder. As the largest evaporator here burned this summer, much of the crop will be dried by the old-fashioned Mexican method of hanging the chill up by strings. The crop this year is exceptionally fine in quality, owing to the pest-control work undertaken under the County Farm Bureau supervision, and the price $45 per ton is $15 better MORE HIGHWAY WORK ORDERED BY SUPERVISORS Euclid Avenue and Broad Street To Be Improved. Fumigating and spraying licenses were ordered issued to Geo. G. Allen, A. Laswell, A. L. Morris, and C. E. Henderson. Spraying license was ordered issued to John M. Ward.

TO CONTROL HOG PARASITES To keep swine healthy and thrifty, provide them with sanitary quarters and a clean wallow, in addition to proper feed. But when external parasites affect hogs an effective remedy must be used if losses are to be avoided. Lice and mange mites are the two principal kinds of external parasites occurring among swine. The mites are particularly injurious to pigs and poorly nourished hogs. "Hog Lice and Hog Mange" is the title of a new farmers' bulletin recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture, telling specifically how to identify the parasites and describing effective and economical remedies. Plans of hog wallows and dipping vats, together with directions for building them are given. For information on this important subject, ask the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D.C., for Farmers' Bulletin No. 1085. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance. SEES IN HARDING BEST TRADITIONS, IDEALS AND HOPES Nominee's Former Pastor Still Boosting Man Who Will Be Leader and Not Dictator. FINDS IN SENATOR NO TRACE OF RADICALISM Deolares Justice, Kindness and Mercy Stand Out as Foremost Characteristics of Republican Candidate. Included among the Minnesota Republicans working faithfully and industriously in behalf of Senator Harding, is Rev. D. B. Martin, of Winnebago, Minn., former pastor of the Marion, Ohio, Baptist Church and Senator Harding's pastor. The other day Rev. Martin was asked just why he is so enthusiastic about Senator Harding, and this is what he said: "It is a peculiar pleasure for me to continue the work which I began twenty-five years ago. It was my privilege to stand on the side lines and boost for Senator Harding when he received his first nomination for public office. When he was a candidate for the senate I was visiting in Ohio and had the pleasure of boasting for him. It is, therefore, a peculiar pleasure to join with this bunch of Minnesota boasters in seeking to put Senator Harding over, in the greatest gift within the power of the people. Being a clergyman, I have been constantly asked by my friends COX CAUGHT CREELING Zachary Lemmon, not the California lemon, must have been what James M. Cox had in mind when he told a Los Angeles audience that he stood for protection of the California lemon industry while he was a Member of Congress during the debate on the Payne tariff law. Mr. Cox seems to be a bit confused on this subject for a microscopic search of the Congressional Record during his service in Congress fails to disclose that he ever made the slightest reference to lemons in any connection, while he did introduced a bill, H.R. 12033—61st Congress, 1st Session, to increase the pension of one Zachary Lemon of Mr. Cox's Congressional District. The California lemon industry found no friend in Mr. Cox because at that time he had not the remotest idea he would ever want the California vote, but he did sense the value of Zach Lemmon's vote, and of a large number of others like him, for during his brief service in Congress Mr. Cox introduced no less than 931 bills, 916 of which contemplated pensions, or increased pensions, and public buildings. Just one bill was of a somewhat constructive nature. The debate on the emon schedule was confined to the Senate side of Congress. The subject seems not to have been debated at all in the House of which Mr. Cox was a Member. The Republican majority of the Ways and Means Committee, in their report on the tariff bill, listed some of the increases over the Dingley law, and in that list was cited the item "Lemons, from 1 cent to 1 1-4 cents per pound." The Democratic minority Members of the Committee in their report on the bill roundly condemned the increased duty on lemons as a play "to the great trusts." The tariff bill passed the Starting with the highest ground on Wilshire boulevard in the new Wilshire district with an unsurpassed view and immediately on Wilshire boulevard, they will install many new ad beautiful features. About 25 of the largest lots will have sunken gardens, of the Italian style in the Arroyo de Los Jardines. These gardens, already wedded with California willows and other trees, will have much additional planting, together with stone and cement stairways, bridges and balustrades. As the Rimpau heirs have owned this property from the days when Southern California land had value only for grazing purposes, and they have admitted their associates on a very reasonable basis, the owners of Wilshire Crest, the new subdivision, feel that they can offer the lowest prices reasonable in the Wilshire district. With the Los Angeles High School near by to the southeast, Marlborough school, Page's Military Academy a short walk distant and the choice of several of the best grammar schools in the city, together with the new Wilshire Country Club, these lots will prove particularly attractive to those looking for a very desirable location for homes. The new subdivision will be called "Wilshire Crest." COX AND HIS "DUD" Gov. Cox has shot his bolt. The stir created by his cries of fraud against the Republican campaign managers reached its peak and collapsed when not a scintilla of evidence was forthcoming upon demand for its produc- continue the work which I began twenty-five years ago. It was my privilege to stand on the side lines and boast for Senator Harding when he received his first nomination for public office. When he was a candidate for the senate I was visiting in Ohio and had the pleasure of beating for him. It is, therefore, a peculiar pleasure to jelly with this bunch of Minnesota boosters in seeking to put Senator Harding over, in the greatest gift within the power of the people. Being a clergyman, I have been constantly asked by my friends at the college commencement in Michigan, in Chicago and in Minnesota why I am such a persistent booster for Mr. Harding, and I have been asked to state in this presence my reasons for doing so. These are three: "The first pertains to certain elements of his character. I will give you these as I received them while I was pastor of the Baptist Church in this city, of which Mr. Harding is a member. I asked him and a group of other men to make some Sunday evening addresses. I do not remember much that Senator Harding said at that time, but I do remember very distinctly the words with which he closed his address and which have stood all these years as outstanding elements of his character to me. He closed the address by a quotation from the Prophets, in which he said, 'And what doth the Lord thy God require of thee but to do justly and love mercy and walk humbly with thy God.' Justice, mercy, kindness and humility have in all these years stood as foremost characteristics of Mr. Harding's life—characteristics which are always attractive and make a man's life worth while. "The second reason is because I believe that there is focused in him the best traditions, ideals and purposes of the great Republican party and so particularly fit him to be their leader in this great crisis of the nation's life. I use the word 'leader' advisely, for it is leadership that we are needing and not arbitrary, dictatorial, autocratic rule. We have had enough of that. If a boss is desired there would be no need for making any change, for the boss that we have is the bossiest. "The third reason is because I find in him no trace of radicalism. To me radicalism is the greatest danger that we have to face. Our interests are too diverse to admit of anything of that character. We have our agricultural group with its interests. We have the labor group with its interests. We have our financial interests. We have that other great group known as the public, that has always been made the goat,' with its interests. All of these are of vital interest to the commonweal and I believe that Senator Harding is broad enough and sympathetic enough so that the interests of each will be blended in the common interest of all, and all will be perfectly safe have been debated at all in the House of which Mr. Cox was a Member. The Republican majority of the Ways and Means Committee, in their report on the tariff bill, listed some of the increases over the Dingley law, and in that list was cited the item "Lemons, from 1 cent to 1 1-4 cents per pound." The Democratic minority Members of the Committee in their report on the bill roundly condemned the increased duty on lemons as a play "to the great trusts". The tariff bill passed the House with this 1 1-4 cents duty on lemons, Mr. Cox voting against the bill and voting for Champ Clark's motion to recommit. The bill went to the Senate and through the yeoman effort of then Senator Frank P. Flint, of California, a quarter of a cent more was added to the duty, making it 1 1-2 cents per pound, which was the rate carried by lemons when the bill went into conference. Mr. Cox is recorded as voting against the conference report. He had nothing to say about lemons. Moreover, throughout his entire career Mr. Cox has supported the party which secured a huge number of votes in 1912 on its pledged word to the free list, if placed inpower. The Democrats were placed in power and the Italian voters to put lemons on the country witnessed the notorious "lemon lobby", one of the very few which President Wilson permitted to operate at the Capitol, though he had previously bitterly condemned all lobbies on behalf of American industries. Mr. Cox had nothing to say about lemons then. His party met its whole promise with a two-thirds performance by reducing the duty on lemons to half a cent a pound as it stands at present to the satisfaction of Italy, and as approved by the San Francisco platform's endorsement of the Wilson law. All these facts are a matter of official record. Farther on in his address to the Los Angeles people Mr. Cox declared: "If Newberry had not been in the Senate we would now be a member of the league of nations. If Senator Henry Cabot Lodge had not made him a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee this would all be settled." Senator Newberry was not, is not, and never asked to be appointed a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. And so long as 32 plus one Senators stood out against the British-Wilson league—and 21 Democratic Senators voted against it—we could not have become a member." COX AND HIS "DUD" Gov. Cox has shot his bolt.

A little incident connected with candidate Cox's recent campaign visit to New York indicates that the Democratic nominee is striving to forget certain indiscreet editorials which appeared in his newspaper, the Dayton News, before the owner of the paper aspired to the Presidency. As the Democratic nominee was leaving the Hotel Commodore after luncheon a commercial traveler forced his way through the throng of curious spectators and thrust into Mr. Cox's hand an editorial clipping which proved to be his denunciation of the commercial travelers of the United States. "Read that, Mr. Cox," commanded the travelling man. The Democratic candidate unfolded the trayed column of newspaper matter, glanced at the heading, scanned the first paragraph, flushed scarlet to the ears and crumpling the offensive and offending editorial in his first mumbled something which none of those near him at the time would repeat and hurried to his waiting automobile. In 1904 one of Mr. Cox's newspapers denounced the army of traveling salesmen as "unmitigated bores." What would be say now that he desires their votes—South Bend (Ind.) Tribune.
