OIL FIELD NOTES The daily production of oil in two of southern California's great tooh fields—Huntington Beach and Sigonella Hill—was increased 7875 barrels according to statistics. Of the new production, Sigonella Hill contributed 5500 barrels and Huntington Beach 2375 barrels. Production rose to great figures at Long Beach during the past week. The daily output is now 41,000 barrels, and this figure will be doubled within the next thirty days should the wells now nearing completion come up to expectations. Long Beach has made the most phenomenal record of any field in California. Less than a year old, this field has attained the biggest production from the smallest number of wells in the shortest time of any of the fields. The average prduction from the 35 wells now making the 41,000 barrels is better than 1000 barrels a well, an average that is a reord-breaker. Huntington Beach operators were rewarded with several nice producers during the week. The Amalgamated Oil company redrilled and put Huntington 1-B on production at 300 barrels. The deepening more than doubled the production and shows what the Huntington Beach field is capable of doing in the deeper sands. The Argonaut Oil company duplicated the work of the Amalgamated by deepening Turley No. 1, and doubling its production. Like the former's Huntington, the Turley well was one of the first to produce at Huntington Beach in the upper sands. Deepened 316 feet, the production was raised from 100 barrels to 200. The Golden Dome Oil company crops. The grower should determine just what is the cause of the dwarfed condition. A few suggestions can be offered to assist in determining procedure. In many such cases, examination of the subsoil beneath or around the tree will show that it is rocky, or gravelly, or sandy. In that case, treatment will depend largely upon just how unfavorable are the soil conditions. Sometimes such trees can be helped by digging trenches around them, removing the rocks and gravel, and filling with manure and good soil. But while this will help, it will not make a first-class trees. Sometimes the soil is so rocky that it is better to take up the tree, dig a large hole, fill with good soil and manure, and replant. It is impractical and too expensive to treat many trees in this way, but for an occasional tree it is a good practice. Stunted trees sometimes are observed that show a great difference in sizes between the stock and bud union. In such cases, the tree should be removed. In other cases there are trees which seem to have no particular cause for their dwarfed condition, except that it is an inherent characteristic. Such individuals should be taken up and replaced with good trees. Trees budden on trifoliata-stock usually are dwarfed. In general such trees do not produce profitable crops and should be removed. In arching has been suggested as a possible means of improving such trees, but so far as we know has never been tried out. OATS AND SNAILS PERIL SOUTHLAND Besides the very considerable direct damage caused by the unusual rains and floods occurring during the past winter in southern California, an indefinite but large amount of indirect crops. The grower should determine just what is the cause of the dwarfed condition. All along the line stant fear of "overformia fruits." Yet it was greater than ever for more came as time passed. But today, to every small city American continent shippers, acting running each other the good markets. Today, California rank among states with total value of farm its vast area, still say how humillating the rank of California the specialty fruit efficient marketing. So much for his marketing of California fruit crop—that is, centralized to a co-organized two large organization. One of these is the Distributors, of Which the general management which, in headed by such dynasty Anderson, Frank Charles E. Virden. The other is the Exchange, of Which the general manager Cutter the president offices in the California at Sacramento, who marketing matters bert E. Jones, in Orlando. A SOCIALIST The Socialist part it is going to wage congressional district States this year. Hopeful. A state New York says: The Argonaut Oil company duplicated the work of the Amalgamated by deepening Turley No. 1, and doubling its production. Like the former's Huntington, the Turley well was one of the first to produce at Huntington Beach in the upper sands. Deepened 316 feet, the production was raised from 100 barrels to 200. The Golden Dome Oil company seemingly has a commercial producer in sight. Completed at 3007, this well has been put in to build up a gas pressure. It is the impression that if the well fails to flow that it will make a good pumper. The Petroleum Midway's Pearce No. 1 recently shut off water at 3236 in 10-inch and on drilling out the cement the well started flowing and is doing better than 150 barrels. The Republic Petroleum after a half year of trouble and disappointments at No. 2 has been rewarded with something nice. The well is now flowing 275 barrels. The Bell of Montebello is now a producing company. The Bell brought in a 350-barrel well at 3732 feet. The Western Star Oil company has completed its first Huntington Beach producer and brought in a 400-barrel well on the Judd lease. The Standard Oil company put two wells on Production, Huntington A.C., a 100-barrel well, at 2664, and A.C., a 400-barrel well, at 3505. The Shell Oil company showed up the possibilities of the old Brea field with a 900-barrel well on the Pico property. Drilling Pico No. 2 to a depth of 3627 feet, the big flow of high gravity oil was struck and a producer making 23 gravity oil has aroused interest in one of the oldest fields in the state. At Richfield the Standard Oil company's Kellogg 2, a deep test well, has passed 5400 feet without finding any very promising indications of oil. The Wonder company Ltd's ntw well No. 4, completed at 4378, is on the pump doing about 120 barrels. The Union Oil company has completed a well on the Ayres-Parsons lease No. 4 at 3356 feet and now has a 200-barrel production. Santa Fe Springs did not add any new production to the south's output during the week. This field continues to present a lot of trouble and cannot be said to be looking particularly rosy. OATS AND SNAILS PERIL SOUTHLAND Besides the very considerable direct damage caused by the unusual rains and floods occurring during the past winter in southern California, an indefinite but large amount of indirect loss is now coming to light. It was stated in reports from the Scripps biological station near La Jolla. Wild oats are named as a source of serious fire danger later this year, because of the excessive growth encouraged by rains such as the southland has almost never before experienced. In other words, the wild oats are wilder than they've ever been before. Helix pisana, who emigrated from Sicilily a number of years ago, will likely become as ferocious in the salubrious climate of southern California as a flea maliciously rumaging around the person of the proverbial on armed gink, it is stated. In fact, the helical pest, otherwise a variety of snail, who has hitherto confined his depredations to untamed varieties of vegetation, now threatens to make serious inroads into southern California's agricultural production records. The Sicilian perit has been further compared in his rampages to the banditti of his native terrain, and named the "Little Corporal of the Molusks." It is stated that public authorities are considering a 7 years' campaign against helix pisana, so that he won't "helix" around these parts any more. Any animal whose eggs look like tapioca and are laid 30 to the cluster is bound to be a mean customer to dispose of. The statisticians have it all figured out that 10 snails will probably increase to 310 in a month, to at least 9210 in three months, and to nearly 300,000 in five months. That leaves out of calculation the possibilities of many of the crawling beasts getting cracked wide open by hungry mocking birds or stepped on. Famine need never exist while helix is around, since he is pronounced a toothsome morsel by epicures. The only trouble is that while there are many of him, each of him is rather small. No one ever made two bites of a helix pisana. May be they'll sick the woofus bird on him. A SOCIALIST The Socialist party it is going to wage congressional district States this year. Hopeful. A states New York says: "Our reports indicate Socialist sentiment among the over the failure of Republican parties with the unemployed wave of wage red shortage of homes." These signs of hope because of the objection American Socialism polled 900,000 voters dential campaign growing movement death blow in public suit of the espouse cause by the Socialists has shown no recovery since the pleasant war memorialed the disillusioning slah experiment. felt more or less socialist ideas have been an economic wide scope, which have not been able wage reductions with time of necessary one of the chief causes of homes has been on high wages on their chief appeal. THE PEOPLE The furore overtion in removing seabureau of engraving died away. The news penned with the seabury taken a com Wonder company Ltd's new well No. 4, completed at 4378, is on the pump doing about 120 barrels. The Union Oil company has completed a well on the Ayres-Parsons lease No. 4 at 3356 feet and now has a 200-barrel production. Santa Fe Springs did not add any new production to the south's output during the week. This field continues to present a lot of trouble and cannot be said to be looking particularly rosy at this time. Recent developments at Fairview indicate the possibilities of the Fairview Oil company getting production. Showing at 2400 and 2500 feet seem to indicate that production will be obtained at from 2800 to 3000 feet. The log of the Fairview well is checking up very closely with the Standard Bolla Chica wells at Huntington Beach, four miles west. Seal Beach can almost be said to be a certainty. Showings found in the Henry R. Dabney syndicate well at from 2700 to 2800 indicate that production is not far away. The showings have been so good that it is quite possible that drilling will stop at 3000, and 10-inch pipe set. The Seal Beach Oil company is making hole at 200 feet and has a number of good showings. The leasing of a large body of land by the Union Oil company at Downey was one of the most important developments in oil lands and leasing during the week. TREATMENT OF STUNTED TREES Almost every orchard has a few stunted trees. Since these are below size, even though many are healthy in color, they do not bear satisfactory ANAHEIM GAZETTE IS OVERPRODUCTION OF FRUIT POSSIBLE All along the line has been the constant fear of "over production of California fruits. Yet the demand in 1921 was greater than ever. Frantic wires for more came as the season drew to a close. But today, deciduous fruits go to every small city and hamlet of the American continent. Yesterday, the shippers, acting individually, were running each other in trying to cover the good markets. Today, California stands second in rank among states of the union in total value of farm crops. Texas, with its vast area, still is first. Who can say how humiliatingly low would be the rank of California were it not for the specialty fruit industry, with its efficient marketing methods? So much for history. Today the marketing of California's deciduous fruit crop—that is, the fresh fruits—is centralized to a controlling degree in two large organizations. One of these is the California Fruit Distributors, of Which Wilmer Soig is the general manager. It is the organization which, in the past, has been headed by such dynamic men as Alden Anderson, Frank B. McKevitt and Charles E. Virden. The other is the California Fruit Exchange, of which John L. Nagle is the general manager and George H. Cutter the president. Both maintain offices in the California Fruit building at Sacramento, where conference on marketing matters is convenient.—Robert E. Jones, in Orchard and Farm. A SOCIALIST REVIVAL? The Socialist party announces that it is going to wage a fight in every congressional district in the United States this year. The leaders are hopeful. A statement issued from New York says: To provide transportation for a tract of land being placed upon the market, P. L. Howland applied to the railroad commission for permission to operate automobile freight, express, baggage and passenger service between Orange and Silverado canyon in Orange county. A girl has a perfect right to powder her nose on the street if she hasn't any home.

You are hereby directed to appear and answer the complaint in an action A SOCIALIST REVIVAL? The Socialist party announces that it is going to wage a fight in every congressional district in the United States this year. The leaders are hopeful. A statement issued from New York says: "Our reports indicate a widespread Socialist sentiment, as well as indignation among the masses of workers over the failure of the Democratic and Republican parties to deal effectively with the unemployment problem, the wave of wage reductions and the shortage of homes." These signs of life are interesting because of the obscurity into which American Socialism has fallen since it polled 900,000 votes in the 1912 presidential campaign. During the war the growing movement suffered almost a death blow in public esteem as a result of the espousal of the German cause by the Socialist organization. It has shown no convincing sign of recovery since the armistice. To unpleasant war memories has been added the disillusionment effect of the Russian experiment. Millions who once felt more or less friendly toward Socialist ideas have learned a lesson from the conspicuous failure of Marxism as applied by Lenine and Trotsky. Can it be true that the revulsion and indifference are vanishing, and Socialism is becoming a word to conjure with again in America? It is hard to think so. As for the reasons given for the alleged revival, surely Socialists should be able to see that unemployment has been an economic problem, of worldwide scope, which they themselves have not been able to solve; also that wage reductions were inevitable, in a time of necessary deflation, and that one of the chief causes for the shortage of homes has been the insistence on high wages on the part of the very workmen to whom Socialists make their chief appeal. THE PEOPLE APPLAUD The furore over the president's action in removing some officials at the bureau of engraving and printing has died away.
