RANCHERS INTERESTED IN IRRIGATION METHODS County Farm Advisor Gives Valuable Ideas at Demonstration That Orange County ranchers are keenly interested in the new ideas of irrigation as advocated by H. E. Wahlberg, county farm advisor, was shown at the demonstration held Saturday at the Charles Wagner ranch, on Yorba Linda boulevard. A big crowd attended and saw the use of windbreaks and proper soil moisture demonstrated. That different soils require more and less water and a different kind of application, was shown and ranchers who have tried out the new plan of irrigation this summer report themselves as being pleased with results. Mr. Wahlberg stated that recent series of soil moisture meetings held under the auspices of the Farm Bureau and Agricultural Extension Service in El Modena, Tustin, Anaheim, Yorba Linda, Fullerton and West Orange has revealed remarkable improvement in the condition of groves this year relative to proper soil moisture condition as compared with last year. The digging of numerous trenches in representative orchards in the above citrus growing sections has disclosed in most cases favorable conditions for optimum root growth and penetration. The campaign for more intelligent practice carried on through the numerous field meetings during the past year has had a very gratifying spread of influence throughout the county and no doubt will result in greater vigor and thrift of the trees together with corresponding improved production. A field tour conducted two weeks ago through the courtesy of the Villa Park Orchard Association through the Village Park Section discussed a new method of irrigation. Charles G. Morton, commanding the Ninth Corps Area, in telegrams from the Monterey Chamber of Commerce and from Benjamin W. Wright, mayor of Monterey. The telegram from the Monterey Chamber of Commerce says: "It is with our hearts filled with gratitude that the Monterey Chamber of Commerce representing the people of this city expresses its great appreciation of the work of Colonel Herbert J. Brees and the officers and men of his command at Presidio of Monterey during the big fire of Sunday, Sunday night and Monday. We shall never forget the heroic efforts put forth by the Army to save property in the vicinity of the fire and we join with you of the military service in Privates Bolo and Watkins who lost their lives in the flames. We desire that you convey our appreciation to the War Department and say that the splendid work of Colonel Brees and his men not only contributed greatly toward saving the city but set an example of personal bravery and coolheadness which Monterey Peninsula people are proud to emulate." WASHINGTON LETTER The overwhelming victory of the Republican ticket in Maine is everywhere regarded as actually a victory for Coolidge and as presaging a sweeping victory for the Republican ticket in November. The Maine election was a great surprise to the leaders of both parties. Both believed the Klan issue would outweigh all other considerations and it would have occasioned no great surprise to the Republicans had a Democratic governor been elected. Republican Chindbloom of Illinois, who has been campaigning in Maine and who is, perhaps, better able to judge of the results than a citizen of the State, has course, that there is of throwing the elephant into the House and latter's being competent between Dawes and likelihood that it will water. That is what working for, and a part out of the election that he and the Senate who vote w able to cast the decem Bryan in the White and this is the most LaFollette's stand could dictate territory would go into the mendously obligated slite. In one way would be a mere tion on the one side less Leader, Willie on the other by that Bob LaFollette. Aceive of a more un disastrous situation.

A field tour conducted two weeks ago through the courtesy of the Villa Park Orchard Association through the Villa Park Section disclosed a remarkably improved condition over last year. Fourteen trenches were dug in 10 different groves, representing the various types of that community. The tour was planned to cover about the same ground that was included in a similar trip a year ago. A splendid opportunity was afforded in this year's tour to make comparisons with the findings of last year. In practically every case the proper penetration of soil moisture was found where a year ago this condition was the exception rather than the rule. It was plain to see that the growers had learned their lesson following last year's winds and by making examinations of their own soil conditions by means of trenches as recommended by the Agricultural Extension Service. The trenching method provides a satisfactory means of studying the soil structure throughout the root zone and provides a better way of viewing the actual spread and penetration of roots in response to the irrigation practice followed in any given grove. Last year's trenches opened the eyes of the majority of growers in that they disclosed dry soil at a depth of two to four feet, even following an irrigation, where, in most cases the irrigation was considered thorough. The trench showed a distinct play pan in many groves that were examined, through which very little moisture, if any, had penetrated. It was very evident from the numerous trenches observed that either the play soil, the heavy texture of the sub soil, or excessively great length of the irrigation furrow was responsible for the lack of sufficient moisture penetration to provide normal functioning of the citrus roots. The growers therefore took it upon themselves to make a closer study of the actual conditions in their own groves. This year a marked improvement has been obtained. The above factors in many cases have been so changed that better penetration has been secreting victory for the Republican ticket in November. The Maine election was a great surprise to the leaders of both parties. Both believed the Klan issue would outweigh all other considerations and it would have occasioned no great surprise to the Republicans had a Democratic governor been elected. Republican Chindbloom of Illinois, who has been campaigning in Maine and who is, perhaps, better able to judge of the results than a citizen of the State, has brought to the President the most emphatic assurances that "the Maine election was essentially a Coolidge victory." That the system of "claiming everything in sight" has been carried to a deplorable point by campaign managers is becoming more and more obvious. To such extravagant predictions do the chairmen of the national committees, irrespective of party, lend themselves that it has made their statements worthless. It is a reasonable assumption that because of their vantage points these gentlemen should be in a position to give the country the most accurate information, and probably they could, if they would. But they won't. They content themselves with claiming everything, declaring that the opposing candidates are "through" and each insisting that his particular candidate will "sweep the country." Such foolish predictions are a reflection on the intelligence of the public and accomplish nothing. Very few Washington correspondents will burden their wires or impose on their editors with the nonsense the campaign chairman hand out. To paraphrase a declaration of a once famous governor of Wisconsin, "It's facts, not boasts, the people want." From sources other than the campaign chairmen your correspondent learns that Mr. Davis is making a sad mess of his campaign; that he is proving a woeful disappointment to his political backers and to the party which made him its candidate; nor are the reasons hard to find. John W. Davis is a conservative, at heart far more conservative than Calvin Coolidge. At heart no man has a greater contempt for Bryan and all that Bryan represents than John Davis, and yet, because he thinks it will win him votes, he is posing as a radical and going up and down the land saying things he does not believe and advocating policies in which he has no faith.

The above factors in many cases have been so changed that better penetration has been secured. In some orchards visited the length of irrigation was shortened by the introduction of new pipe lines. In other cases sub-soiling was resorted to in order to break up the prevailing ploy pan and in still other instances more thorough irrigation applications were resorted to with a fewer number throughout the season. In other words the water was secured for a greater number of hours during each application but the number of applications were reduced. These favorable findings in the Villa Park section have been duplicated in many other sections of the county by growers who are giving more serious attention to the relation of soil moisture to tree vigor and production. ARMY TO THE RESCUE The readiness of the United States army to respond to any emergency call with organized assistance whether the emergency be national or whether it be some local disaster, has again been exemplified by the aid furnished ed the City of Monterey during the recent conflagration when the army saved lives and property and maintained order. Two gallant soldiers lost their lives while fighting the fire. The gratitude of the citizens of Monterey has been conveyed to Major General Davis is a conservative, at heart far more conservative than Calvin Coolidge. At heart no man has a greater contempt for Bryan and all that Bryan represents than John Davis, and yet, because he thinks it will win him votes, he is posing as a radical and going up and down the land saying things he does not believe and advocating policies in which he has no faith. The result of this insincerity stands out in his every speech and takes all "the punch" out of it. Every good salesman knows that the first essential of good salesmanship is a firm belief in the merits of the article he is selling. And as a salesman of himself and the Democratic party John W. Davis is a failure simply because he cannot believe either in himself or in the Democratic party as that party is represented by the platform on which Davis is forced to stand. This is not the individual view of your correspondent, but is a composite of the views of many men who have come to Washington from all parts of the country, many of whom have heard Davis speak and all of whom have been at some pains to ascertain the political sentiment in the communities in which they live, of which they have visited. While John Davis is proving a failure as a presidential candidate on a platform which, no doubt, at heart he abhors, there is no warrant for the continued declaration of the Republican chairman that "its all over but the shouting." It is perfectly evident that many Democrats with radical tendencies are going over to La Follette and there still remains the danger that the third party candidate may gain a sufficient number of votes in the electoral college to prevent Mr. Coolidge's receiving the 266 votes necessary to elect. That means, of course, that there is still the danger of throwing the election successively into the House and Senate and the latter's being compelled to choose between Dawes and Bryan, with every likelihood that it would choose the latter. That is what La Follette is working for, and all that he expects out of the election. It would mean that he and the little group in the Senate who vote with him would be able to cast the deciding vote and put Bryan in the White House and also, and this is the most important from LaFollette's standpoint, that he could dictate terms to Bryan who would go into the White House tremendously obligated to the Wisconsinite. In one word, Charles Bryan would be a mere figurehead dictated to on the one side by the once Peerless Leader, William Jennings, and on the other by that arch demagogue, Bob LaFollette.

The 17,-553 cars received here in August established a record and followed high record July shipments of 14,615 cars. The two months receipts were close to fifty million bushels, more than double the amount received in the same months last year and more than double the ten year average. The effect has been to increase bank deposits. One local bank has gained twelve million since July 1, and has fifty eight million dollars as compared with forty one million a year ago. At the same time there has been an actual decrease in loans, despite the 17,-000,000 bushels of wheat in local ele- the cotton pickanniny pickers in evidence. From there the cotton is followed to the ginn and every movement in cotton production is shown. The United States Department of Agriculture is sending a large and well prepared educational display showing the best methods of culture and handling, and the different forms of lint. This is the only place west of Waco, Texas, where this federal exhibit will be made. The various cotton using industries will show methods of handling the fabric and knitting machines and a modern loom will be in operation. The Aplary Display is an important feature of an Agricultural show in Southern California. As Riverside, Orange and San Bernardino counties represent the largest honey producing section of the world it is only natural that this important product be given a prominent place.

At the same time there has been an actual decrease in loans, despite the 17,000,000 bushels of wheat in local elevators, which is more than twice that of a year ago which has called for much borrowing. Bankers say that never was there so sudden a transformation in financial conditions as has been manifest in the last sixty days. Many country banks that were borrowing to the limit three months ago have paid their loans and accumulated balances with their correspondents. Most of the increase in deposits here is due to the larger balances of country banks. Reports from Nebraska say the turn of the tide has given an impetus to real estate, that more farms will change hands before the season is over than in the last 4 years and that prices will advance to 25 per cent. Sixty days ago farmers considered that they were doing business at a loss; now they are confident of a profit. Depression and discouragement have given way to hopefulness and courage. All eyes are now turned on the corn crop, which gives promise of a full average yield in Kansas, most of Oklahoma and in Nebraska, if the frost date be well delayed. It is expected that the months crop report will show fully as high a promise as did August, with perhaps improvement. The middle west producer has an entirely new point of view with a lifting of his burden of debt. In one respect he has a considerable advantage over the earlier period. He then built a new home, new barns, improved his equipment and is on the whole in far better condition than a decade ago. Now he has that advance paid for and is in a position where there is less demand for added expansion. It is likely that he will turn, where possible, to investments and seek to place some of his surplus into bonds and mortgages—particularly bonds, with such other securities as appeal to him.
