OIL FIELD NOTES At Huntington Beach the Amalgamated Oil company's Fowler No. 4 is standing in the limelight. This well was brought in a month ago and is making the most wonderful showing of any well in the field. Drilled to 4408 feet, Fowler No. 4 came in at 600 barrels. The production started to increase and mounted to 1770 barrels daily in a weeks' time. The increase in production is the most phenomenal of any well ever brought in in the southern territory. Miley-Keck No. 22 is another Amalgamated wonder that is attracting its share of attention. Completed at 4,213 feet, this well is producing 1900 barrels daily. The Holly Oil company's No. 3 is bringing a lot of pleasure and satisfaction to its owners. This well, at 4317 feet, started out at 1000 barrels and has increased its production to 1250 barrels daily. No. 3 is the first real success for the Holly Oil company at Huntington Beach. Surprise will no doubt be expressed at the news of the resumption of drilling on the Motor Oil and Refining company's well, located on the south side of the field. This well was started during the boom days, but was suspended when the General Petroleum company No. 1 quit drilling dry hole at 4300 feet. Success of the Standard Oil company's Surf 2, a 450-barrel well, at 4430 feet, seems to be the cause of the revival of activity. The work of the Potter Oil company drilling a wild cat well lat Athens on the Hill is being watched closely. Oil experts have "doped" this district for the next field and conse- to his observations, will be fully 60 per cent above normal this year, but of only medium quality because of a protracted hot wave during the summer. The crop in France, he thinks, will be 20 per cent above normal, and the quality will be very good. "The crop in China will oe normal," said Thorpe, "because the trees are so hardy that no visitation of extreme weather has any noticeable effect upon them. They plod right along from year to year with about the same average tonnage and uniform quality." In France Thorpe found the farming class decidedly prosperous. During his travels in China he visited walnut-growing districts lying as far as 1500 miles apart. In one region, adjacent to the great Gobi desert of China, he pressed into country which, it is said, was never before explored by a white man. This trip was made on camels with many accompanying hardships and dangers. "Walnut growing in China and other countries of Asia and Europe is incidental to other agricultural activities," said Thorpe. "It is not pursued as a business. One finds the walnut trees growing haphazard, with crops of citrus, flax, grapes, grain, vegetables and other predominating crops. "There are walnut trees scattered at-random over all the farms in the foreign walnut growing countries, but the trees get no such care as they given in California. The foreign walnut trees get only such care as the coolie or peasant gives to the crops which occupy the surface area of the land upon which the nut tree happens to be growing. "If conditions in France are not quite what one might expect, it is probably because of a faulty system of taxation," declared Thorpe. "The populace in general is well fixed. The old shell holes made by the war, and the barbed wire entanglements, have all been smoothed out, and bumper to his observations, will be fully 60 per cent above normal this year, but of only medium quality because of a protracted hot wave during the summer.

The work of the Potter Oil company drilling a wild cat wel lat Athens on the Hill is being watehd closely. Oil experts have "doped" this district for the next field and consequently the progress of the well is of great interest. Drilling has passed the 3400 foot mark and there have been no showing that would either encourage or condemn. At Buena Park the Standard Oil company is close to 4700 feet and has found little indications of oil. It is now conceded that Buena Park will not get on the oil map of southern California. With the drilling out of the cement in the Seal Beach Oil company's No. 1, renewed interest is promised in the field. Seal Beach Oil company No. 1 has been standing cemented for a month at 3200 feet. Showings prior to cementing warranted the prediction of a run for the investment. The bringing in of a 1050 barrel well on the Shell's Bixby lease puts a new complexion on the east side of Signal Hill and brought a lot of property into favor that heretofore has been looked upon with some dry suspicions. Shell-Bixby No. 1 was put on a water production test at 4263 feet. The well acted so nicely and made so much more production than was expected on the test that it is being allowed to continue flowing. The succes sof the Shell company means that the Union's Hart property is good, as is also the Cooper Petroleum company's well and other adjoining properties. Santa Fe Springs operators are gratified with the wonderful showing the wonder well of the field, Butterworth No. 3, is making. This well was put on production three weeks ago at 4696 feet, a 2650 barrel, 34.4 gravity well. The production has declined only 100 barrels and the high standard of the gravity has been maintained. At Butterworth No. 2 the Amalgamated Oil company had the misfortune to lose 4160 feet of hole and is moving nut trees get only such care as the coolie or peasant gives to the crops which occupy the surface area of the land upon which the nut tree happens to be growing. “If conditions in France are not quite what one might expect, it is probably because of a faulty system of taxation,” declared Thorpe. “The populace in general is well fixed. The old shell holes made by the war, and the barbed wire entanglements, have all been smoothed out, and bumper crops have again taken their place. “All of the war-torn countries are being rapidly rebuilt, but along lines followed centuries ago. There appears to be no advanced or even modern thought in reconstruction. New buildings are designed as they were hundreds of years ago. “There is no good system of sanitation and modern conveniences are sadly lacking. The homes and public buildings have no running water. Water for all purposes is carried from the town wells, sometimes a block or so away. The farming people and the laboring classes in America enjoy comforts of all kinds that have never even been dreamed of by the well-to-do classes in Europe and Asia.” As for France, Thorpe declares that he is not greatly in sympathy with her. “The French people are in no bad way,” he asserts. “It does not seem to me that their reconstruction job was as big as that of rebuilding San Francisco, because they have not dealt with plumbing, wiring and all the other modern features of present day construction. I'm not nearly so sorry for France as I was when I left America.” MORE OPPOSITION The California Development association, after a careful and thorough study has announced its unqualified opposition to the proposed water and power act. In a resolution setting forth its opposition, the association urges its membership and affiliated organizations throughout the state to take a similar stand. The proposed measure would materially block the future development and prosperity of California, according to the resolution. Believing that a frank statement of this is of vital importance to the interests of the people as a whole, the association says that it has been prompted to step into the issue, notwithstanding the fact...

At Butterworth No. 2 the Amalgamated Oil company had the misfortune to lose 4160 feet of hole and is moving the rig. Dallugge No. 2 in the oil sand at 3945 feet, has all the earmarks of a big well. The Federal Drilling company presented the Machris brothers with a nice well on the Off property. Off No. 1 was completed at 3904 feet, started off at 800 barrels and increased its put to 1000 barrels daily. WALNUT EXPERT RETURNS FROM WORLD TOUR Indicating that the Italian walnut crop will be fully 60 per cent above normal this year and declaring that the production of foreign nuts is enormous, Carlyle Thorpe, general manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, has returned from a tour of the principal walnut producing countries of the world, with first-hand information for his association and many useful pointers for American growers in general. "The foreign walnut grower is able to produce nuts at a ridiculously low cost," said Thorpe. "This is due, partly because walnuts are a side issue and partly because of the low wages paid laborers. The Italian walnut crop, according forth its opposition, the association urges its membership and affiliated organizations throughout the state to take a similar stand. The proposed measure would materially block the future development and prosperity of California, according to the resolution. Believing that a frank statement of this is of vital importance to the interests of the people as a whole, the association says that it has been prompted to step into the issue, notwithstanding the fact that policy of timidity and selfishness might have been easier to pursue. "The California Development Association feels most profoundly its responsibility and accountability to the citizenship and general welfare of the people of the great state of California," said Charles W. Helser, president of the California Development Association. "The contemplated act provides for such sweeping changes in the control and development of water and power service in the state as to unquestionably affect in a determining way, the future destiny of the state as basically controlled by these two major elements in its assets of present and future prosperity. "The association has met the situation squarely. It has passed a resolution setting forth its opposition to the measure. It intends to use the strength of its entire organization to defeat the measure." JOHNSON AND THE FARMER The Democratic candidate for United States senator is making an appeal to the farmers of California to support him. He says that he has farmed some himself and owns a ranch in Glenn county. Hiram Johnson is not making any especial appeal for or claim to the farmer votes of the state. But his record makes the appeal for him. As governor of California, Johnson gave to this state practically all of the irrigation laws now on the statute books. When he took office in 1911 reclamation interests were in a chaotic state. Banks and business men shunned irrigation bonds. Johnson caused new irrigation laws to be passed and today the irrigation bonds of California stand highest on a list of the irrigation bonds of twenty-seven states. The result of Johnson's work was that more than half the 4,000,000 acres of land now under irrigation were made producing directly as a result of his new laws. When Senator Johnson went to Washington he continued his activities in behalf of the farmers. How prominent a part he played is shown by the fact that when the farm bloc of western senators was formed Johnson was elected chiefman. Speaking in Los Angeles the other day, William Jennings Bryan, taking up the subject of the agricultural bloc, said: "It is the only bloc in Washington which has accomplished anything whatsoever at the present session of congress. It has worked in the open and for the benefit of the people." Senator Johnson's tariff work for the farmers and growers of the state is known and appreciated by the farmers of California. It should not be difficult for them to choose as between him and the Democratic candidate who "has done some farming." CULL FOR BREEDERS Hens lay the majority of eggs during their first two laying seasons, and especially during their pullet year, if they are early hatched. If a hen lays well during her pullet year she should be kept for another year as a breeder. The older she is and the more culling she survives the prominent, yellow shanks, beaks or ear lobes. Save hens that are healthy, strong, active, late molters, those with waxy, full red combs, prominent, bright eyes, thin pelvic bones, large abdomens, soft, flexible egg sacks, large expanded, moist vents and those with pale shanks, beaks and ear lobes. Cull all aged male birds that lack constitutional vigor and vitality. Cull all aged hens that do not show exceptional qualities as egg producers. TREATMENT IN HOMES WILL BE GIVEN WETS One of the most important steps undertaken by the United States veterans' bureau to improve the condition of ex-service men has been started in Ohio upon the recommendation of the federal board of hospitalization of which Brigadier General Chas E. Sawyer is chief co-ordinator, and soon will be extended to every section of the country. Details of the scheme were announced by C. Hamilton Cook, national commander of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War, following a conference with government officials. Briefly the plan provides for a survey of every patient to determine: What cases can best be treated by allowing them to enjoy the normal environment of their homes, and sending all such to their homes without any reduction in the compensation allowed by the government; What changes in treatment or hospitals are desirable for those patients whose alliment can best be treated in a hospital. How the medical attention for all permanent patients can be improved so that the most scientific and sympathetic treatment can be given every one with the aim of bringing about ultimate recovery. If you can't be original, be natural—there is hardly anything so original as that. DELINQUENT NOTICE Office of Anaheim Eucalyptus Water Company, Anaheim, Orange County, California.

Dispose of all weak or deformed chicks as soon as they are hatched. Sell all weak, late hatchad or undeveloped pullets. Keep all mature, vigorous, healthy pullets. Get rid of all hens that are weak, sick, or over fat, the early molters, those with shrunken scaly combs, those with sunken, dull, listless eyes, those with thick pelvic bones, small abdomens, hard, fat egg sacks, small, dry, yellow vents, and those with all such to their homes without any reduction in the compensation allowed by the government; What changes in treatment or hospitals are desirable for those patients whose alliment can best be treated in a hospital. How the medical attention for all permanent patients can be improved so that the most scientific and sympathetic treatment can be given every one with the aim of bringing about ultimate recovery. Brigadier General Sawyer, chairman of the federal hospitalization board, and Colonel Charles R. Forbes, director of the veterans' bureau, both are in heart accord with the plan and it also has the approval of President Harding.
