Map of Tract No. 613 was ordered received by the board and the same referred to the City Engineer of the City of Fullerton. at the Fullerton High School Saturday Over 400 growers assembled there from all parts of the South land. The program included a series of important addresses from marketing and finance to processing and field culture of the avocado fruit. A very able paper was given by Prof. M. E. Jaffa, Nutrition Specialist of the University of California. He pointed out the high values of the avocado from a food standpoint. He also emphasized the need for further investigations on the vitamin content of avocados as there is still very little known about this important feature of its food value. Prof. A. W. Christie, representing the By-Products Laboratory of the University of California, reviewed the work done by the Department in dehydration of avocados. As yet the experiments have not proven satisfactory from a commercial standpoint. Further investigations are under way at the present time in pickling avocado meat in brine and other pickling processes. Prof. Christie pointed out that the dried product involved a decrease in the moisture content of 8 to 1. When his product is placed in water it is restored to the natural texture. He pointed out that where only a partial vacuum was made in canning the dried product, a rancidity was developed. This, however, he believes can be satisfactorily overcome by approaching a more complete vacuum in the canning process. Mr. O. L. Clark of Point Loma, San Diego County, gave a very interesting review of the avocado pollination test conducted at the Homestead Farm. The experiments seem to indicate that the avocados are not necessarily dependent on cross pollination. These experiments were carried out by means of isolating individual trees with mosquito netting. Bees were allowed to work in the isolated trees. The production of these trees were finally compared with the production of trees under natural exposure and the difference was negligible.

The County Auditor was ordered to draw a warrant for $600.00 on the General Fund, in favor of Francis Cuttle, and $600.00 on the General Fund, in favor of C. C. Chapman. A fumigating license was ordered issued to Alfred Buchlman, on recommendation of the Horticultural Commissioner. An ordinance prohibiting the holding and conducting of sparring or boxing exhibitions within the County of Orange, outside the territory of Incorporated Cities, and fixing a penalty for the violation thereof, was passed by the board. Permission was ganted to the Southern Pacific Company, to construct a track crossing at the intersection of Garfield Avenue and Main Street, in the Second Road District.

The experiments seem to indicate that the avocados are not necessarily dependent on cross pollination. These experiments were carried out by moans of isolating individual trees with mosquito netting. Bees were allowed to work in the isolated trees. The production of these trees were finally compared with the production of trees under natural exposure and the difference was negligible. Mr. Clark's investigations are apparently somewhat contradictory to Dr. Stout, but as yet the investigations have not been carried on long enough to arrive at definite, final conclusions. Mr. Geo. B. Hodgkin, General Manager of the Association, Chas. F. Stearns of Los Angeles, and others, presented strong arguments in favor of closer co-operation between avocado growers of California. Figures compiled by the manager indicate that Florida, the biggest competitor of California, has 1800 acres of avocados, with a production of 2,500,000 pounds. California has about 1300 acres of avocados, 1,000 which are non-bearing. It is evident from these figures that one of the biggest problems and projects of the Association is that of marketing. The Executive Committee was authorized to take steps towards incorporating. At noon a sumptuous avocado dinner was served at the High School. Avocados in all forms were featured. An interesting exhibit of avocado varieties had also been arranged by the Association and the center of attraction during the afternoon. A FALSE APPEAL TO WOMEN The Democratic party might well pray to be delivered from its friends. Probably nothing more damaging to the reputation of the Democratic party could have been done than the recent publication and distribution of a circular by the Democratic National Committee accusing the Republican Administration of corrupting the Civil Service. Every man women who has read the newspapers knows that there never was so much perversion of the Civil Service for partisan purposes as was perpetrated during the Wilson regime. Almost the first notable utterance by any member of the Wilson Administration was the letter sent by Secretary of State William J. Bryan, the arch-exponent of virtue in politics. Permission was ganted to the Southern Pacific Company, to construct a track crossing at the intersection of Garfield Avenue and Main Street, in the Second Road District. Deed for right of way from Jotham Bixby Co., et al, in the Fourth Road District, was accepted and declared a public highway. Resolution in the matter of Road District No. 26, was adopted by the board. Map of Tract No. 612 was ordered received by the board and same referred to the City Engineer of the City of Newport Beach. It was ordered that the Superintendent of Highways prepare plans and specifications for the resurfacing of Laguna Road 1.5 miles; also Edinger Street and South Bristol Street. It was ordered that the Superintendent of Highways prepare plans and specifications for the improvement of Yorba Bridge Road. It was ordered that the Superintendent of Highways prepare plans and specifications for the improvement of Orange Olive Road. 400 AVOCADO GROWERS MEET One of the most successful avocado meetings held by the California Avocado Growers Association convened a circular by the Democratic National Committee accusing the Republican Administration of corrupting the Civil Service. Every man women who has read the newspapers knows that there never was so much perversion of the Civil Service for partisan purposes as was perpetrated during the Wilson regime. Almost the first notable utterance by any member of the Wilson Administration was the letter sent by Secretary of State William J. Bryan, the arch-exponent of virtue in politics, who wrote to a public official in a consular office asking whether he could not find some positions for 'deserving democrats'. That expression was coined by that member recognized as having the highest ideals. Mr. Bryan's early and vigorous attempt to use official positions for partisan purposes was for the more than 30,000 postmasters under the classified Civil Service but the first act of the Democrats was to order all these to take a competitive examination and notwithstanding the manifest probability that the incumbent would be better qualified than a new man, a vast majority of these who were in office were ultimately ousted and others put in their places. Not only that but President Wilson summarily removed two members of the Civil Service Commission and one of these, a Democrat, publicly declared that he and an associate were ousted because they refused to violate their oath of office. They refused to give thier approval to violations of the Civil Service law. During the war, under the pretense of war emergency, the Democratic Administration virtually set aside the entire Civil Service requirements and made appointments arbitrarily, even appointing persons who had failed to pass examinations. That the Republican Administration has leaned over backward in its efforts to maintain the principle of the classified Civil Service is shown by the notorious fact that even in the third year of the Republican administration the departments at Washington are still filled largely with Democrats who were appointed by the Wilson administration and whom the Republican administration has refused to oust in order to give place to Republicans. President Harding was criticized by Republicans throut the country because he would not "throw out the Democrats" to make room for Republicans. This is common knowledge. It is also a matter of record that when an Assistant Secretary of the Treasury attempted to oust some of those Democrats and put Republicans in their places, he himself lost his position. The Democrats stayed. The present appeal of the Democratic National Committee, based upon administration of the Civil Service, is directed particularly to the women of the country. Women, more than men, expect sincerity from those who appeal for their votes, for women have not been so much accustomed as men to the duplicity of politicians. It is a safe guess that when the women of the country, regardless of political affiliations, read the grossly false Democratic appeal they will resent the inferential reflection on their intelligence and their knowledge of recent political history. LEGIONAIRES FAVOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION Presentation of a definite physical education program of legislation to the next Congress has been decided upon by the American Legion because of the discovery that less than twelve benefits of physical education. This is the message brought back to California by John R. Quinn, national commander of the American Legion. Commander Quinn is in California to participate in the dedicatory ceremonies at the new $1,000,000 Memorial Stadium on the University of California campus. The American Legion has been astounded to learn how small a percentage of school children of the nation now receive the benefits of physical education," Mr. Quinn declared. "A misleading impression has resulted from the large publicity given to athletic sports and games in which only a few participate while great numbers look on and applaud. These contests do not provide training pupils according to individual needs. "In the meantime, millions of children will grow to maturity physically handlecapped and morally ill-equipped for the responsibilities of citizenship. This can only be avoided if the federal government will act promptly and effectively. "Competent experts have testified that adequate physical education in younger years would have perverted the disqualification of more than a million recruits for national service in the recent war emergency. From the standpoint of national defense alone it seems obvious that the federal government is obligated to immediate action. But this training is equally important in repairing the youth of both sexes for the full discharge of all the duties of peace-time citizenship. If there should be only one way in which the federal government could appropriately promote the general welfare of the citizenry, could there be anything more fundamental than to guarantee for all a preliminary training for physical fitness and moral and mental balance through physical education? The man who is willing to take the bullwheel on home some day will have...

California sunshine is also curing children. These boys are just ready to take their sun baths at the San Mateo preventorium for boys. This work is made possible from the sale of Christmas Seals.
