ANAHEIM POULTRY YARD (Robert H. Lyans in Farm and Orchard Magazine) The ambition of almost every commercial poultryman is to own a flock of layers noted for high average egg production. In order to obtain this high average for an entire flock it becomes necessary for the poultryman to purchase stock only from breeders and hatcherymen who have systematically culled their flocks over a long term of years. This culling process may be conducted in various ways. Some breeders rely only on the trapnest; some depend upon observation of the physical characteristics of the birds to aid them in spotting the good and the poor layers. Others base their judgment as to whether a hen will be a heavy producer upon the time of year in which she moults. There are still others who follow methods that are in reality a combination of all of these methods to a greater or lesser degree. All of these various methods have their strong advocates, and success has come by many routes, so it would be useless to try and set forth any hard and fast rule for all poultrymen to follow, inasmuch as many factors might enter into the discussion. After 14 years of line breeding, the Superior Egg Farm, situated five miles west of Anaheim, lays claim to a flock of White Leghorns with a flock average production of 175 eggs per hen. The owners, Charles W. Peters and his wife, Elizabeth C. Peters, declare that only by the most painstaking and careful selection, and by continuous culling has the result achieved been made possible. From a modest beginning in 1910 with a flock of 300 yearling hens, the Su poses the trapnest, he believes is of the utmost value, providing the birds are under trapnest for at least a three-year period. Except as a more or less surface indication of the real worth of the bird, trapnesting during the pullet year alone, he thinks, is of little value. His experience has led him to believe that by systematic culling on the basic of capacity and pelvic measurements, and by selection for vigor and size and high vitality, he can build up year by year a flock with a real intrinsic value to the commercial poultryman that is greater than is to be realized through the use of the trapnest. By his plan, he says, he can produce offspring to sell to growers at a price well within their income. Although the flock average on the Superior Egg Farm last year, according to Mr. Peters, was better than 175 eggs per bird, he says he is sure he can increase this in the future without the aid of the trapnest. GET CHILDREN READY NOW TO ENTER SCHOOL In nearly every county of the state mothers are bringing their young children to health conferences for physical examinations in preparation for entering school. These conferences are sponsored by the Bureau of Child Hygiene of the California State Board of Health, and they are held generally in the county seat. Competent medical examiners are provided and there is no expense connected with the examinations. The object of his work is to help the mother improve the child's hygiene with a view to improving his whole physical condition. Where correctable defects are discovered she will be able to have them given attention before he enters school next fall. United States Department.

SLEPT WELL ON LUNITE One of the most strains of the possibilities rupted travel with an coach was made last Seattle Oldsmobile deber of the staff of daily papers made San Francisco with sleep, and upon their each went to his de accumulated work w After 14 years of line breeding, the Superior Egg Farm, situated five miles west of Anaheim, lays claim to a flock of White Leghorns with a flock average production of 175 eggs per hen. The owners, Charles W. Peters and his wife, Elizabeth C. Peters, declare that only by the most painstaking and careful selection, and by continuous culling has the result achieved been made possible. From a modest beginning in 1910 with a flock of 300 yearling hens, the Superior Egg Farm flock has grown to 2000 breeding hens. Establishing the enterprise as a commercial egg plant, the owners have played the "game" from the beginning, having had their full share of bumps, and they now feel that they have been in the poultry business long enough to pretty nearly understand the needs of the average poultryman. Their purpose has been to develop a strain of birds that would prove profitable to the commercial poultryman of the Southwest, a strain that would produce eggs in profitable quantities—large white eggs of the kind that command top prices in any market. In the operation of this big poultry plant the item of overhead expense has always been held at a minimum. It might be interesting to note some of the methods employed to increase the average flock production from year to year. Mr. Peters says the breeding hens are all two years old or even older, and average in weight better than four pounds each. They are selected for their brightness of eye, width of breast and depth of keel. These factors, together with smoothness of plummage, and a deep red, full, lopped comb, he declares, insure vitality and indicate strength to produce eggs. Vitality of the parent stock is, in Mr. Peters' estimation, the key to successful breeding. After passing the vitality test, the breeding hen on this ranch must undergo a test for egg laying ability. She must possess thin, straight pelvic bones, with an abdominal capacity of at least three fingers, the abdominal capacity being the distance between the pelvic and breast bones. This, says Mr. Peters, indicates that she possesses the capacity to produce eggs. Both the vitality and capacity tests are necessary and essential, one without the other being little value in itself, this breeder believes. In the breeding operations on Superior Egg Farm, a combination of artificial in vitro fertilization and in situ hybridization is used for raising these birds. ERADICATION OF CITRUS CANKER IN FLORIDA The citrus canker outbreak in Florida, some ten years ago, caused a condition in that state which the Bureau of Plant Quarantine and Pest Control of the California Department of Agriculture is constantly trying to prevent from occurring in California, says Citrus Leaves. A vivid picture of citrus canker eradication in Florida is given in the January quarterly bulletin of the Florida State Plant Board as follows: "If any one of the chief departmental activities might be called the most important, it would probably be that of citrus canker eradication and grove inspection. Ten years ago the citrus growers of this state were Child Hygiene of the California State Board of Health, and they are held generally, in the county seat. Competent medical examiners are provided and there is no expense connected with the examinations. The object of his work is to help the mother improve the child's hygiene with a view to improving his whole physical condition. Where correctable defects are discovered she will be able to have them given attention before he enters school next fall. Decayed teeth, enlarged or diseased tonsils, faulty posture, mouth breathing, flat feet and undernourishment are common defects in young children. Youngsters who have suffered from a communicable disease are often afflicted with some of these disabilities as a result of the illness. Mothers may not be able to discover these defects. Only a skilled medical examiner is competent to make an adequate physical examination, and mothers should not rely upon their own judgment, for they are not able to discover many hidden defects. In fairness to the child, he should be physically fit for the first grade when he enters school next fall. He cannot compete successfully with other children unless he is in good physical condition. The opportunity provided in these free conferences is unusual and the fact that they are appreciated is shown in the large number of young children in all parts of California who are being examined. Full information regarding the conferences can be obtained from local public health nurses and health officers, or from the Bureau of Child Hygiene, 336 State building, San Francisco, California."

Cockerels used in the breeding flock are selected for their vitality from hens that are known to be exceptionally good producers. The early maturing cockerels as a rule, other things being equal, make the best breeders, according to Mr. Peters' experience. Their weights, he says, run from five to seven pounds for cockerels and cock birds. The males are selected to conform very closely to the Standard of Perfection in appearance, with a large, well set, five-point comb, good saddle, and well-set tail feathers. They also possess a broad, full breast, and long sloping back. In selecting cockerels, Mr. Peters says, his experience has proved that the very late moulting hen is very likely to be a good producer. Accordingly, he selects the very choicest of these late moulters and mates them with the best cockerels to produce cockerels for the following year. In this way, he says, he is able to maintain the strain and gradually build up in each succeeding year an increase in the flock average production. Although Mr. Peters does not trap nest his birds, neither does he question that the trapnest has its place in the poultry industry.

Ten years ago the citrus growers of this state were thrown into consternation through the discovery of a strange and unknown disease attacking citrus trees. Experts were at a loss to identify it and curative or repressive measures were of no avail. Finally the condition was recognized as one which was quite common in Japan and other parts of the Orient. Under the favorable climatic conditions in Florida and the Gulf States the disease threatened to prove disastrous. The conclusion was reached that only through complete eradication could the citrus industry be saved and a vigorous campaign was entered upon participated in by growers and both the state and federal governments. The total cost of this effort up to June 30, 1924, has been great, involving an expenditure of $1,718,037.45, which does not include the value of trees, infected and non-infected, which were destroyed in the course of the campaign. Large as this sum is, it is insignificant when compared to value of the industry which has been saved. Conservative estimates of the value of the citrus grove plantings in Florida place the figure at $250,000.000. The citrus crop of 1923-24 amounted to 20,000,000 boxes. There is no question but that this large industry has been saved through the joint efforts of the State Plant Board and the Bureau of Plant Industry."

"Inspectors of the board have not only combated canker in the Davie section, but have kept under close observation all areas where the disease had formerly been found and apparently stamped out. Then too, during the biennium a complete survey of all citrus plantings in the state was finished. During the two-year period more than twelve million citrus grove tree inspections were made by agents of the board. This does not mean that twelve million trees were inspected, for many trees in the infected and exposed areas were inspected repeatedly. During the year ending June 30, 1924, 26 inspectors have been engaged in this work. It will be noticed in the above statement that the eradication cost mentioned does not include the value of the trees which were destroyed. From May 1, 1914 to June 30, 1924, there were destroyed, as being infected or exposed to infection, 252,024 citrus grove trees and 3,062,785 citrus nursery trees, a conservative value of which would be nearly $11,000,000, estimating the value of a grove tree to be $25 and a nursery tree at $1.50.

Center, Anaheim MUSIC INSTRUCTION By pedagogue of great experience, and concert pianist of One of the most striking demonstrations of the possibilities for uninterrupted travel with an Oldsmobile Six coach was made last week when the Seattle Oldsmobile dealer and a member of the staff of one of Seattle's daily papers made a round trip to San Francisco without stopping to sleep, and upon their return to Seattle each went to his desk and attacked accumulated work with a zest undimmed by fatigue. The 934-mile jaunt to the Bay City was made in exactly 34 hours elapsed time and the return by a different route which logged 926 miles took 32 hours and 30 minutes, according to the newspaper man's report. The cost of the trip was .7 of a cent per person per mile. The Oldsmobile Six coach was made into a bed when nightfall came without, however, interfering with the driver's seat. This was done by the method discovered by J. W. Leavitt & Company of Los Angeles, Oldsmobile dealers, whose idea has since been broadcast throughout the country. The back of the back seat is removed and placed on the floor between the back seat and the tipped down front seat. This forms a comfortable bed with springs and the two men took sleeping on it and then taking their trick at the wheel. Al Feham, sales manager of the Feham Oldsmobile agency, says that the Seattle-San Francisco trip is the most extensive test of the Pullman qualities of the Oldsmobile Six coach of which he has heard, but that the sleeping accommodations of the car are being utilized by dozens of owners on shorter jaunts, such as weekend trips into the mountains.
