JINGO AND ALIENISM Walter Williams, head of the department of journalism at the University of Missouri, declared at the International Press congress in Honolulu that measures should be taken to "disarm the typewriters of the jingo press of the world." Upon the junk heap with these typewriters of jingoism should be the typewriters and fountain pens of the alien propagandists in the United States. We got along in this country for a century and a third under a strictly pro-American policy without becoming involved in the wars of the other hemisphere. This was because the influence of alien propaganda in the United States was not strong. Now there is in progress in the United States a propaganda of European origin which seeks to place American peace at the peril of European disturbance. This agitation, essentially unpatriotic, threatens the peace and prosperity of this country far more than jingoism. The American people covet nothing in this world that belongs to any other people. There is no excuse whatever for the assumption, therefore, that the United States wants war with anybody. No government wants war except it has a purpose to possess that which belongs to some nation it believes to be weaker than itself, or weaker than some combination of powers it hopes to effect. DIFFERENCE AS TO LOWER-UPPER BERTHS The difference between a "lower" and an "upper" as applied to sleeping car berths was recently outlined by O. G. Robbins, ticket agent of the Salt Lake route at Riverside. AUTUMN SONG Map of tract No. 193 was accepted as the official platting of said tract.

POULTRY IN ORANGE GROVES Maintaining that one acre of land will support from 1000 to 2000 chickens, and that five and ten acre orange groves would have increased revenues if one row of trees were removed and from 1000 to 2000 birds substituted was part of a number of suggestions made Monday night at the farm center meeting held at the city hall in Garden Grove at which time Charles Weeks, proprietor of the Weeks poultry ranch, Palo Alto, gave a talk on poultry raising. Weeks said that net profit of $2 a bird a year could be had by introducing poultry into the smaller orange groves, declaring that each fowl provided 60 pounds of valuable fertilizer yearly, a sufficient amount of soil builder to render the purchase of additional fertilizer a useless expenditure. The speaker estimated that 1000 chickens would produce 30 tons of the highest grade fertilizer yearly—a that is required to provide adequate sustenance for the orchard trees, he said. The Garden Grove meeting was presided over by J. O. Arkley, a director of the Orange county farm bureau. R. D. Flaherty, secretary and manager of the Orange county farm bureau, also spoke on the development of farm bureau work in the county, state and nation: Over 75 farmers and fruit growers attended the meeting. BIG MONEY SAVING TO WALNUT GROWERS Ship-by-Water Campaign Causes Reduction in Freight Rates That the walnut growers of this state will be saved $300,000 a year as a result of the sharp freight rate reduction forced by a ship-by-water campaign which has just been conducted by the California Walnut Growers' association than itself, or weaker than some combination of powers it hopes to effect. DIFFERENCE AS TO LOWER-UPPER BERTHS The difference between a "lower" and an "upper" as applied to sleeping car berths was recently outlined by O. G. Robbins, ticket agent of the Salt Lake route at Riverside. In the way of explanation Robbins said: "Well, you understand the lower is higher than the upper, on account of it being lower than the upper. I can give you the lower if you are willing to go higher; but if you don't mind going higher it will be lower." When asked why the lower should be higher than the upper, the agent declared: "Because everybody prefers the lower on account of its convenience. If you sleep in an upper you are obliged to get up when you go to bed and get down when you get up." For that reason I would advice you to take the lower; although as I have which agriculture finds itself. The present cost of production and the high transportation rates will cause the farmers to produce fewer crops next year. Even with conditions as they are at present in many parts of the west farms will not be operated next year and a still greater acreage will be seeded to grass." AUTUMN SONG The autumn spreads before my eyes Her rich and varied tapestries; Before my feet the autumn flings Bright cloth of gold where I may fare, And fills my ears with cadencings Of many a low enamored air. The paths of autumn are for me Haunted by wraths of memory; I watch them wander to and fro, I see them meet and clasp and part; I mark their yearning eyes, and so I take the autumn to my heart! Somebody is going to make a strong appeal to prospective wrong-doers, some day, by changing it to read, "Honesty is the safest policy." BIG MONEY SAVING TO WALNUT GROWERS Ship-by-Water Campaign Causes Reduction in Freight Rates That the walnut growers of this state will be saved $300,000 a year as a result of the sharp freight rate reduction forced by a ship-by-water campaign which has just been conducted by the California Walnut Growers' association is the surprising announcement of Carlyle Thorpe, general manager of the organization. Effective Wednesday, trans-continental railways north and west of the Ohio river dropped the walnut freight rate from $2.33 to $1.75 per hundred after it became evident that the associated growers could ship the crop to New York, Boston, Philadelphia and other eastern ports in canal steamers at a great saving. To clinch the argument Mr. Thorpe rounded up 1,000,000 pounds of walnuts at the various packing houses a few days ago, loaded them onto auto trucks, hurried them to the harbor, and stowed them away in the holds of big steamers in less than thirty-six hours. The demonstration was an eye-opener for the railroads, and sharp reduction of the freight rate on walnuts followed almost immediately. It is the opinion of Mr. Thorpe that the new railroad rate will save the growers at least $300,000 a year. They will continue to ship via canal whenever it is advantageous to do so. This year they began shipping by water early in October and after that time practically every steamer that left Los Angeles harbor took with it several thousand bags of walnuts. The last big shipment moved last week. Friday the steamer F. J. Luck- THE Ford runabout is just what its name implies—it's a regular "get-about." There is no other car that will take you there and back again, quicker, safer and more economically. It's the car for the man of action—the farmer, the merchant, the doctor, the contractor, the collector—the car that is useful every day of the year. Low in the cost of maintenance, with all of the sturdy strength, dependability and reliability for which Ford cars are noted. On account of the unusual demand we urge that your orders be placed as early as possible.
