Will Breed Sheep In Orange Groves Orange County Citrus Man Finds It Profitable An interesting experiment with sheep in a citrus grove is being conducted by Oscar T. Mendenhall on his 10½-acre ranch between Whittier and La Habra. Last fall Mr. Mendenhall decided that sheep would help solve the fertilizer problem for his orange and lemon trees, so he bought 90 head of ewes and turned them loose in his fenced grove in September. The ewes dropped 114 lambs, which have been grown out for the market, selling readily at the ranch for 12½ cents per pound, and weighing from 70 to 90 pounds each. The sheep, which are Merinos with a Hampshire cross, were fed lima bean straw and split beans during the winter months, while from a corral built in the center of the grove they also had access to oat and alfalfa hay, in addition to the alfalfa pasture growing in the grove. The sheep will be sold off at a later date and a new band of ewes will probably be purchased this fall, as the experiment has been very successful, according to Mr. Mendenhall. He estimates that his grove has received 100 tons of manure with a value of approximately $1400, or $14 per ton. Mr. Mendenhall states that he has paid as high as $14 per ton for alfalfa and bean straw to be used as fertilizer, and the same material mixed with sheep manure, he believes, should at least be of equal value. Mr. Mendenhall has practically grown up with the citrus industry of Orange county. He helped his father set out one of the first navel orange groves in that district in 1889, before Valencias were introduced. Seedlings were the principal orange crop then. In 1895, he and his brother, Sam, bought 10 acres of land and set it out to navels and walnuts. The big problem, he says, is to keep up the fertility of the grove so that it will have a high market value. Clam Population In Rapid Decrease Fisheries Being Destroyed by Amateur Diggers It is the opinion of William F. Herrington, assistant fisheries biologist of the state fish and game commission, that the valuable Pismo clam fishery of San Luis Obispo county, instead of being in a very prosperous condition, as is the belief of most of the people in the Pismo Beach region, is, in fact, well on the road to extermination. An article to appear soon in the commission's publication, "California Fish and Game," Herrington describes how for years a census of the clam population on the San Luis Obispo beaches has been taken by members of the staff of the California state fisheries laboratory at San Pedro. These studies have disclosed the fact that the year 1919 was an extraordinarily successful spawning year for the clams. The clams of that year class made up 90 per cent of all the clams found on the beach up until the year 1923, when they constituted 82 per cent of the total population. In 1924 this percentage dropped to 58 per cent, and in 1925 dropped to 7 per cent. In other words, the 1919 year class has passed out with no other abundant year class to take its place. The year class of 1924, or those hatched in 1924, are only one-tenth as abundant as were the clams of the 1919 year class. As this 1924 crop will not reach the legal size for two or three more years and will then be relatively small in number, the Pismo clam fisheries is in for extermination if drastic action is not taken. Herrington shows that this decrease in the number of clams on the beaches is not due to the activity of the commercial diggers, who can market only legal-sized clams, but is almost entirely due to the activity of tourists and amateur diggers.

He helped his father set out one of the first navel orange groves in that district in 1889, before Valenclas were introduced. Seedlings were the principal orange crop then. In 1895, he and his brother, Sam, bought 10 acres of land and set it out to navels and walnuts. The big problem, he says, is to keep up the fertility of the grove so the fruit will have a high market value. His experiment with sheep leads him to believe that he has hit upon an excellent method of supplying the much-needed fertilizer for his grove, while the crop of lambs and wool adds still further profit to the venture. THE FOOLKILLER SEASON The foolkiller is abroad in the land. He works all the year, of course, but the summer is really his busy season. His aim is sure and fatal. There is only one way to avoid him—don't be a fool. To take only one instance out of a day's news, three girls and three boys set out in a little punt on the St. Mary's river the other day. One of the boys started to demonstrate how he won a Charleston contest. One of the six was rescued. In the first place, six people are too many for a small boat. Three are enough for the average rowboat. In the second place, monkey-business in small boats is one of the foolkiller's most deadly weapons. Why people should think it funny to rock small boats is one of the unsolved mysteries of human nature. It isn't funny to drown, or to come close to drowning and be rescued. Nor is it really funny to endanger the lives of one's friends. It isn't really funny to venture out into water beyond one's depth when one cannot swim enough to have a generous margin of safety. It isn't really funny to show how fast one can drive—and end in a hospital. It isn't funny to hog the road just to be smart—and sideswipe oneself, one's friends and the strangers one meets down the hill and into the morgue. There is something about the good old summer time which lets loose all the silly desire to show off that is latent in human nature. The foolkiller is always waiting. But he doesn't bother quiet, sensible people much. The smart Alec is his chosen game. Warning Issued to All Motor Tourists See that your lights are adjusted when you start on your trip into the mountains and that your camping equipment is properly loaded. This advice is offered to motorists whose annual vacation those hatched in 1924, are only one-tenth as abundant as were the clams of the 1919 year class. As this 1924 crop will not reach the legal size for two or three more years and will then be relatively small in number, the Pismo clam fisheries is in for extermination if drastic action is not taken. Herrington shows that this decrease in the number of clams on the beaches is not due to the activity of the commercial diggers, who can market only legal-sized clams, but is almost entirely due to the activity of tourists and amateur diggers. During the three years 1923-1925 the census shows that the number of clams in one mile of beach was reduced by over 4,500,000, while during the same period the commercial diggers took less than 550,000 clams from all the beaches. As the legal-sized clams have about disappeared, tourists and amateurs will be more inclined to take the clams which have not yet reached the spawning age and unless some better method of protecting the immature clams can be devised than has been possible in the past, the clams of San Luis Obispo county will be virtually exterminated as were the clams on Long Beach. Anaheim Beach and other beaches where they were once abundant. Dog Vaccination Is Law of County Applies to Canines Outside of Incorporated Cities An erroneous impression that because the city of Santa Ana has declined to require vaccination of dogs, the entire county is without a law requiring such treatment, is giving county authorities considerable difficulty in enforcing the county vaccination ordinance, Dr. H. L. Wilkins, county veterinarian, announced. The widespread wrong impression is likely to cause trouble to those who are entertaining it. Dr. Wilkins warned. Owners of dogs who believe that they need not have their pets vaccinated are courting prosecution, providing they live outside of incorporated cities, the veterinarian declared. The county vaccination ordinance is effective everywhere in the county outside of the incorporated cities. Following adoption of the ordinance by the county supervisors, a similar ordinance was presented to the Santa Ana city council, after a strenuous contest between its friends and opponents, it was defeated. The publicity given the rejection of the ordinance at the county seat has led many residents of the county to believe that the Santa Ana action applied to the entire county. "People will be arrested if they fail to have their dogs vaccinated, providing they come under jurisdiction of the county ordinance." Dr. Wilkins said. Farm Advisor Will Leave for Florida Total ...

Notary Public No. of Bank 329 Warning Issued to All Motor Tourists See that your lights are adjusted when you start on your trip into the mountains and that your camping equipment is properly loaded. This advice is offered to motorists about to make their annual vacation trip, in a bulletin issued by Will H. Marsh, chief of the division of motor vehicles. "The law requires that your headlights furnish sufficient illumination for your safety, but that they do not project a glaring or dazzling light," Marsh's bulletin says. "Be on the safe side and have them adjusted before leaving." Concerning the loading of camping equipment, the bulletin advises that the law prohibits any load extending beyond the hub caps on the left or more than six inches beyond the hub caps on the right. "Many motorists fail to load their equipment properly and serious accidents result on grade curves," it adds. Motorists are also asked to co-operate in the prevention of forest fires by avoiding the use of the muffler cut-out and using care with cigarettes, matches and gasoline. ALL PENNSYLVANIANS CALLED TO BEACH PICNIC All who ever lived in the Keystone State are invited to a great picnic all day Saturday, July 17, in Bixby park, Long Beach.

Wahlberg will leave on July 17 for an extended trip through the citrus and avocado sections of Florida and Texas, where he is expecting to secure first-hand information on the cultural and marketing problems of these parts. The farm advisor has secured a leave of absence for two months from the university and the federal department of agriculture, in order that he might take this opportunity of studying and comparing citrus culture problems in the important citrus sections outside of California. Besides visiting the Florida and Texas stations, he expects to spend some time with experiment stations in Ne w York, Maine and Ontario, where he has personal friends engaged in research work along horticultural lines. His trip will also include a week's stop at Washington, D. C., where he will be in conference with the federal officials of his department in the United States department of agriculture. A short while will also be spent in the citrus auctions in New York and Chicago. YOUNG PEOPLE WED Miss Leona Borth, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Borth of 707 West Broadway, and Robert F. Gibbs were married July 7, 1928, at St. Cecilia chapel, Mission Inn, Riverside, at 9 a.m., by Rev. Benjamin S. Haywood, popular pastor of the White Temple Methodist church.
