FARM BUREAU NOTES Frost Protection Is Subject of Meeting Much interest is being shown in the orchard heating demonstration arranged by the Agricultural Extension Service for next Monday evening, November 23, at 7:30 p.m. Scores of growers are planning to attend the meeting, which will be held at the place of Ross Shafer, Tustin, on East First street, just east of Prospect avenue. Floyd Young, meteorologist of the weather bureau, who is in charge of frost investigations in Southern California, will be one of the speakers on the program to discuss frost formation and methods that will be used this year to warn citrus growers of this section concerning the frost hazard. Results of the recent orchard heating survey conducted by the College of Agriculture will be presented by Prof. W. R. Hodgson and W. R. Schoonover, who have made a special investigation of all types of heaters used by the fruit interests of the state. Costs of operation and the economics of orchard heating will be discussed by the above speakers. All growers are invited to attend. Demonstration of Citrus Pruning Monday afternoon, November 23, and all day Tuesday, November 24, have been set aside by the citrus department of the farm bureau, and the Agricultural Extension Service for holding the first annual citrus pruning school. At this school the fundamentals of tree growth and fruit production in citrus will be presented by specialists who have made an exhaustive study of the subject. On Monday afternoon, the session, which will be held at the Yorba Linda Citrus Association, beginning at 2 o'clock, will be devoted to illustrated lectures on tree physiology and habits pruners and all growers in the county who are interested and desire to standardize methods of pruning. The aim of this school is to point out the desirability of conservative pruning. The growers will assemble at the Yorba Linda Citrus Association packing house at 2 o'clock on Monday and 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday. Avocado Growers Have Field Day La Habra, November 28, 1925 The fourth annual field day of avocado growers in Orange county will be held this year at La Habra, where a large acreage of this valuable fruit has been planted on the thermal slopes of the beautiful La Habra valley. Based on previous records, the attendance this year should be in the neighborhood of 400 or 500. Particular stress will be made on the educational features of the program. Important phases of field management will be ably discussed by authoritative speakers during the field tour, which will visit representative plantings in the La Habra district. At noon, sharp, the ladies of La Habra will serve luncheon, featuring various avocado dishes. Following this lunchon, which will be given at the Community hall, a field tour has been arranged that will give the visitors a splendid opportunity to see typical plantings in this district. The speakers who will discuss important field problems of the new industry are: J. B. Brown, irrigation specialist, University Farm, "Contouring and Terracing for Hillside Irrigation." Prof. R. W. Hodgson, division of subtropical horticulture, "Bud Selection" and "Trend of Variety Plantings." C. V. Newman, president California Avocado Growers' Exchange, "Problems of the Young Grove." George Hodgkin, manager California Avocado Growers' Exchange, "The Club Duck Hunters Draw Heavy Fines Court Ruling Gives Advantage to Roadside Hunters The roadside duck hunter got a heavy advantage over the gun club member in a ruling of Justice C. W. Warner, at Huntington Beach, when four gun club hunters, including Alexander the Great, noted magician, were fined $25 each for hunting more than half an hour before sunrise. The court upheld the contention of Deputy District Attorney D. G. Wettlin that when an armed hunter on gun club preserves leaves the clubhouse for the blind he already is hunting. This upsets the previous practice of allowing the hunters to take their positions in the blind and wait for the starting bell to ring a half hour before sunrise. The gun club is organized solely for the object of hunting and all of its property is potential hunting ground, so that an armed hunter anywhere on the premises is hunting, under the law, Wettlin held. Inasmuch as a hunter on the highway outside the gun club preserves might have other business on such property, since it has other purposes, Wettlin admits, the court decision means that the roadside gunners may start shooting while the gun club members are starting from the clubhouse on their way to the blirds. Considering the situation in Orange county, where roadside gunners line the fence outside of gun club preserves, the decision is regarded as giving the roadside hunters the cream of early camp, where "Big Hutch" was at work, that a careful investigation should be made in Los Angeles before a parole for the swindler was issued. At least this is the administration ground work in the program to get the governor out of the muddle. Had the administration heeded somewhat earlier the protests regarding the free manner in which paroles were being handed out, perhaps there would have been no scandal in the "Big Hutch" case. The parole of Alford, the Ontario city manager who made himself rich on loot of city funds, and the release of an Orange county dentist convicted on a statutory charge, furnished sufficient evidence that the system is wrong. But San Bernardino and Orange counties are but a drop in the bucket, politically speaking, as compared with Los Angeles, and there was plenty of administration defense for the parole makers on those previous occasions. In the mean time there seems to be no grand rush of Ontario city or courthouse officials to request a review in the Alford case. Perhaps the governor did not understand the law when he said in San Bernardino he had no power or disposition to interfere with the prison board in the matter of paroles, but he has since announced he has plenty of power.

Inasmuch as a hunter on the highway outside the gun club preserves might have other business on such property, since it has other purposes, Wettlin admits, the court decision means that the roadside gunners may start shooting while the gun club members are starting from the clubhouse on their way to the blinds. Considering the situation in Orange county, where roadside gunners line the fence outside of gun club preserves, the decision is regarded as giving the roadside hunters the cream of morning duck shooting, much to the chagrin of the club members. Something of this feeling was evidenced in court when the prosecutor's contention was upheld, it was said. C. Alexander, the magician; E. Avery Newton, H. J. Kimmerle and Robert Elliott are members of the Westminster Gun Club and were arrested there November 14. Even Alexander the Great was unable to conceal his offense from the keen eyes of State Game Deputies C. L. Savage and W. S. Talbott, who were prowling in the vicinity. The gun club keeper sought to shoulder responsibility for the offense by testifying that he started the gunners on their hunt by ringing the bell, and later discovered that his watch had been 14 minutes fast. According to Wettlin's theory, however, the hunt had commenced nearly an hour before the bell, when the hunters started from the clubhouse to the blinds. The keeper's faulty watch, therefore, failed to save the defendants. CHIEF WALKS PLANK George A. Van Smith, chairman of the state board of prison directors, walked the plank for the parole of "Big Hutch," the Los Angeles swindler, and for clashes with Warden Smith of San Quentin, appointed by the prison board at the request of Governor Richardson. Van Smith has just returned from an eastern trip, where he has been during some of the recent unpleasantness that has involved the state administration. It now transpires that Governor Richardson warned Van Smith when the two were on a visit at a prison road CITY POPULATION CURVES It isn't so much where you are as in what direction you are going. Business and population "curves" are based on this truth. The latest figures for the 18 American cities now possessing more than 400,000 people suggest interesting possibilities, based on their varying rate of gain since 1900. They stand at present in this order: New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, Baltimore, Boston, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Buffalo, Milwaukee, Washington, Newark, Minneapolis, New Orleans and Cincinnati. New York with its 6,000,000 plus and Chicago with its near 3,000,000 each gaining about 3 per cent a year, may be expected to keep their places for some decades, because of their big lead and Philadelphia's slow gain. Some of those toward the tail end of this list may fall out. Cincinnati has gained only 25 per cent in as many years, and Pittsburgh and Boston only 29 per cent. Contrasted with them is a small group of cities forging ahead at giant's pace. Most remarkable of all is Los Angeles, which in this last quarter-century has gained 609 per cent. Next in speed comes Detroit, with 331 per cent gain. There are two others which have more than doubled in 25 years—Cleveland with 145 per cent gain and Minneapolis with 109 per cent. These figures suggest that Los Angeles may pass in turn Boston, Baltimore, St. Louis and Cleveland before 1950, and possibly also Detroit and Philadelphia, gaining third place. Cleveland might follow Detroit past Philadelphia, which has a big lead but has been gaining only 2 per cent a year to Cleveland's nearly 6 per cent. Minneapolis may move into the Big Ten. Some of the southern cities not in this list are sure to rise far above their present rating. You always can get a few more miles out of last winter's clothes.

Tuberculosis workers in California are emphasizing a program of prevention by urging communities to make possible special care for groups like these girls. Christmas seals have already made possible nine preventoria in California with a prospect of more after this year's seal sale. But there are other ways of reaching the underweights, said Mrs. Hope Pyburn Johnson, president of the Kings County Tuberculosis Association. With the funds secured this year from the Seal sale we expect to furnish scales and school lunch equipment in our one-teacher schools, and thus hope to reach a great number of children and to help them gain by providing this help.
