TWO THOUSAND ATTEND FARM BUREAU PICNIC Congressman Swing Talks on Boulder Dam Project If the Boulder canyon dam is built, as advocated by Secretary Herbert Hoover and other national leaders, Orange county will be immeasurably benefited and the population of southern California will double in less than ten years, according to Representative Phil Swing, who addressed 2000 farmers at the Orange county park late Saturday. In addition, Representative Swing declared, vast industries will come to southern California in ever-increasing numbers, and countless thousands of acres now virtually worthless will sell at fabulous prices. “This project,” said Swing, “is the biggest single improvement that has been proposed in recent years.

Secretary Hoover says it is one of the biggest things of the age. “History shows that industry follows cheap power. If we construct this mighty dam, we will be able to develop an abundance of power, thus encouraging outside interests to locate in the heart of one of the richest sections in the world.” Swing, who was introduced by President James A. Smiley, gave a detailed account of his activities at Washington with particular reference to the interests of agriculture. He discussed the agricultural bloc, touched upon current legislation, told his hearers that the stability of the country hinged largely upon the prosperity of the AS PERMA The history of burned clay pipe for sewer and there is not a single case of record where this material has been in the museum of the University of Pennsylvania.

A. C. Harbeson, president of the California farm bureau federation, devoted the major portion of his address to a comprehensive review of some of the bills passed at the recent session of the California legislature. Harbeson, who paid his respects to certain legislators and lobbyists, described in detail the bitter struggle experienced in forcing through the Breed bill and other automotive measures. "If you knew the inside story of the pressure brought to bear to defeat these and other measures before the state legislature, you would be surprised," Harbeson told his big audience. Harbeson said measure designated to protect the state highways, as well as the bill forcing the bus companies to pay their full share of the costs of the maintenance of the highways received the hearty endorsement of the California farm bureau federation. He said the Breed bill; regulating the weight of loaded trucks, was the most important bill passed by the state legislature. Hundreds of Orange county ranchers and the members of the families enjoyed to the fullest possible extent the great annual picnic. Entertainment features included selections by the girls' orchestra of Polytechnic school for the dancing. GREAT PEPPER CROP AT GARDEN GROVE A big part of Orange county's million-dollar pepper crop is grown at Garden Grove. In fact, all over southern California, being planted to pimientos, 1700 acres to Mexican chili peppers and 1000 acres to California chili peppers. Scattered throughout the pepper growing area are drying houses. Some years ago the practice of drying peppers was by stringing them and hanging them in the sunshine. Now they are placed on trays and put into a drying house. Of the three varieties, the Mexican chill is the one that is sold as a rule dried. This pepper is shipped to packers all over the country. It's flavor is found highly desirable in various products, such as beans. The California chill and pimientos are sold green to the canneries. The principal buyers are the California Packing corporation, Santa Ana; Royal Packing company, E. C. Ortega, Los Angeles; Curtis corporation at Long Beach. Peppers are planted in March and April, and picking begins in September, gets heavy in October and is finished in January. The average yield of dried peppers is 1500 pounds, or, in exceptional cases, 3000 pounds. Pimientos vary in production according to soil and care from three to eight tons an acre. This is a crop that has the decided advantage of being contracted in advance. Growers are getting contracts for the delivery of their green chilis next fall at $25 a ton and pimientos at $35 a ton. The dried product is marketed largely through Los Angeles wholesalers. The most active man in the pepper industry in that section is J. A. Knapp. Mr. Knapp is this year growing 300 acres of pepper and is buying about twenty carloads of dried product which he expects to ship, some of it as far east as New York. of which is now submerged. It does not appear that it is in imminent danger of soon disappearing from its rocky and sandy habitat, for it is constantly reproducing itself from seed. Moreover, the tree is extensively cultivated in the Pacific coast from Washington to lower California, while it is a familiar ornamental in European gardens, in mild climates of South America and in Australia and New Zealand. Its ability to thrive away from the coast and at elevations up to 2000 feet was tested nearly 20 years ago in the San Bernardino mountains by T. P. Lukens, of Pasadena. The longevity of this cypress has been long a matter of conjecture, with but little opportunity of determining the age of large trees, which are from 50 to 70 feet in height and from 3 to sometimes 6 feet in diameter. Fortunately, last year the long looked-for opportunity came of learning something definite about the age of these trees through E. L. Guppy, of Pacific Grove. The severe coastal storm of 1917 uprooted a number of medium and larged sized trees in the Cypress Point grove. As the trunks were being sawed into sections Mr. Cuppy counted stump rings of three trees which respectively showed ages of 200, 250 and 300 years, the oldest tree having a trunk diameter of nearly six feet. Strangely enough however, two other trees of unusually straight, thrifty growth showed respectively only 50 rings for a stump diameter of 2 feet, and 75 rings for a diameter of 3 feet. Evidently the Monterey cypress grows very rapidly in easily permeable soil, the situations occupied by the latter trees, and much more slowly in rocky situations, the sites occupied by the older trees cited. THE MOTOR VEHICLE LAWS Whatever else the legislature did or GREAT PEPPER CROP AT GARDEN GROVE A big part of Orange county's million-dollar pepper crop is grown at Garden Grove. In fact, all over southern California, wherever one thinks of chili peppers or pimientos, he thinks of Garden Grove, for there this most unique of southern California's great variety of crops was nurtured and brought into its own. This county is the only county in the United States that grows peppers in any quantity. Since this is an annual crop, it has gradually given way to orchards over a wide area to the north, northeast and east of Garden Grove, but at the same time it has been the reason for the development of other land to the south and west. One may get an idea of what peppers mean to Garden Grove and all of Orange county, when it is stated that this year, 1923, there are 2500 acres for the delivery of their green chilis next fall at $25 a ton and pimientos at $35 a ton. The dried product is marketed largely through Los Angeles wholesalers. The most active man in the pepper industry in that section is J. A. Knapp. Mr. Knapp is this year growing 300 acres of pepper and is buying about twenty carloads of dried product which he expects to ship, some of it as far east as New York. AGE OF MONTEREY CYPRESS The Monterey cypress (cupressus macrocarpa), a relative of the old world cypress trees (c. sempervirens) of the Egyptians and Romans, is one of several other California conifers that grow naturally over there very limited areas. The range of Monterey cypress is confined to about two miles of California bay, in a belt about two hundred yards wide extending from Cypress Point to Point Lobos. There seems to be no evidence that it ever occupied a larger range, although various conjectures are extant that it once grew in a wider coastal belt, part PERMANENT AS THE PYRAL pipe for sewage disposal dates back to the days of the Babylonians; here this material has disintegrated by action of sewage, acids, gases, alkalies or the elements. California. They endure—That's Sure. Temporary economy is false economy! Efficient management lies in buying for future contingencies well as for present needs. This applies with particular force to the purchase of materials for the construction of Sewers and Drains. The cost of labor is the same for installing, regardless of the quality of the material used. Taking average of many cities, statistics show that when Sewer Mains are laid, Four-Fifth of the Money is for Labor and other expenses, while but one-fifth is spent for the Sewer Pipe. Therefore, those responsible for the installation of Sewer Mains should be sure that the material is of such a durability that it will require no additional expense in later years for upkeep and repairs.

Of the adjustment received from Sacra-ing by dispatches, that were left un-ature two years ago no effect. During our approval, the motor vehicle are not well enough to say that it was all certain, however, that load limits from 30, roads for four-wheeled move in the right direc-tion. The load limit might have been lowered another ton to two without doing any great harm to the truck-ing industry, but with an added item of safety for the highways. We are certain, too, that a fran-chise tax of four per cent upon the gross receipts of auto stages and trucking lines using the state and county roads is an equitable tax. If there is anything wrong with it, the fault lies in the fact that the percent-age is too low. The first thought of the legislature was to make it five per cent, but a fight to lower the percent-age to four proved successful. A provision in the measure gives a board of supervisors authority to stop heavy traffic upon a road that is being shattered. The provision will prove especially useful in Orange county. One of the best things about the state legislation is that it produces uniformity throughout the state. In their efforts to protect the roads, the counties during the past two years have passed numerous ordinances seeking to regulate load limits. A legal truck load in Orange county might be an illegal load in Los Angeles county. While we have not been very en-thusiastic about the two-cent tax on gasoline, we are perfectly willing that the method of raising money for highway construction be carried out. It is not an entirely equitable system. A flivver using a gallon of gasoline will not do as much damage to a highway as will a heavily loaded truck during the time it uses a gallon of gasoline. But it is hardly fair to dwell on the weak spots of this system unless we have a better system to offer. The state must have money to build the highways that we demand, and we are therefore saying amen to the gasoline tax. PYRAMIDS In the Babylonians and the Roman empire, or the elements.
