King Addresses Local Kiwiians Tells How Oranges Are Disposed of by the Exchange Dale C. King, manager of the North Orange County Exchange, spoke to the Kiwanis Club in this city, Tuesday noon, on the expansion of the orange industry in this section. Mr. King was the principal speaker and was introduced by Charles Eygabroad. The Cotton Blossom Singers entertained with a few southern melodies and negro spirituals. Dr. L. G. Hill of Sioux Falls, S. D., guest of Dr. C. S. O'Toole, was introduced and spoke briefly. "Forty years ago the total citrus crop of California was valued at but $800,000," Mr. King said. "Last year the returns to the growers were more than $90,000,000." "History of the citrus industry dates back as far as 1178, when the fruit was cultivated in China in a limited way. It was introduced into the West Indies in 1600. "The first commercial production in this state was begun in 1841, on a two-acre tract located where the Arcade depot stands in Los Angeles today, although the fruit had been introduced into the state 72 years earlier. The first navel oranges were introduced into the state in 1870, and Valencias came about ten years later. "At the present the exchange has markets in 888 cities of the nation, sells to 3700 jobbers, who in turn retail to 400,000 smaller merchants. Last year the exchange marketed approximately 28,000,000 boxes of citrus fruit." HONOR SOCIETY VISITS LOS ANGELES Twenty-four members of the Honor Society of the local high school, chaperoned by Mrs. Fay Kern Schulz, Honor Society adviser, and Mr. Hedstrom, teacher of chemistry, left the high school at 12:30 o'clock on Wednesday on a pleasure trip to Los Angeles to see the picture "Beau Geste," now showing at the Forum. After the matinee the young people had supper up town and took in some of the sights of the metropolis, among others the new city library. They returned home in the evening, after a very enjoyable outing. Mayors, city engineers and road superintendents of every city and county from Santa Barbara south to the border are expected to meet in Santa Ana Friday for discussion of a complaint, to be filed this week by Orange county with the state railroad commission, affecting freight rates on sand and gravel for road construction. The meeting is called by Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, Orange county purchasing agent, acting as president of the Southern California Counties Joint Traffic Association. The county's complaint, it is said, seeks a readjustment of freight rates on road building material, a question in which all counties and cities of the state are interested. The coming conference, it is said, will deal with the matter of pressing the complaint before the railroad commission. $185 Buys magnificent Lester piano, famous make, glorious tone; case in good shape.

Picnickers Plant 1400 Coulter Pines Fourteen hundred Coulter pines found a permanent home in Orange county soil Saturday, as the result of the "tree planting picnic" under the auspices of the Orange County Farm Bureau. Furthermore, the pleasure of the participants was sufficient to demand arrangements for another such picnic before the first was ended. The second picnic and tree planting will be held February 5, in the Modjeska canyon, when trees will be placed in the burned area on government land. At this place the trees will be planted with mattocks, under the direction of Forest Supervisor J. E. Elliott and Forest Ranger Bert Stephenson. Pack mules will be provided to carry the trees to the mountain slopes; county trucks will be used to transport people without other means of getting to the scene of activities, and extra mattocks will be provided from the forest service supply. All interested residents of Orange county are invited to be present and have the pleasure of taking a part in this great beneficial movement. Bring your lunch and come early is the advice of officials in charge of the planting. The actual tree planting began at about 10:30 o'clock at the Saturday picnic, and by noon the supply of trees that had been brought to the field had been placed in the ground by voluntary workers. About thirty members of the Tustin and Villa Park Agricultural Clubs were present to carry trees, and they were given a chance to plant many of them. Representatives of four or five farm centers constituted a crew large enough to keep Foresters Elliott, Stephenson and Northcross busy directing the work. Holes for the trees had been previously dug by the prison gang and Walnut Men to Meet at Tustin About 700 walnut growers of Southern California will attend the ninth annual Walnut Grower's Institute, to be held this year at Tustin, on Saturday, March 5, in the heart of one of the oldest walnut growing sections of California. Decision of the location of this event was unanimously arrived at during the recent executive meeting of representatives from all the southern counties at Whittier. Orange county was represented by J. A. Smiley, chairman of the farm bureau walnut department; A. J. McFadden, Irvine; S. W. Stanley, Tustin, and H. E. Wahiberg, farm advisor. The Tustin high school authorities have already offered the use of their auditorium for the event. S. W. Stanley, director from Tustin, is arranging the local details, such as lunches, reception, road routing, etc. He states that Tustin community will come out in full force to give the visitors a real welcome. The program committee is headed by J. A. Smiley of West Orange. He will be assisted by the walnut growers' committee of the Orange County Farm Bureau and the agricultural extension service. Prominent authorities and speakers of the walnut industry will be featured on the program. An invitation has been sent to Dr. C. A. Reed, nut specialist of the United States department of agriculture, Washington, D.C., to address the growers on "The Competitive Influence of Various Domestic and Foreign Nuts on the Walnut Industry." Farmers' Committee Meets at Capital The agricultural legislative committee, an organization representing approximately 70,000 California farmers with an annual business of $200,000,000, met at Sacramento Wednesday to draft final plans for the legislative program it will propose to the legislature. The meeting was called by C. C. Teague, president of the committee. Various changes in the law, designed to benefit the farmer in the growing and marketing of his crops will be discussed. A resolution was regularly adopted in the matter of Road Improvement District No. 5, appointing superintendent of work. A pool room license was granted to E. A. Didler. The name of Placentia Richfield Union School District was changed to Placentia Union Grammar School District. Supervisor Willard Smith arrives and assumes his duties as supervisor. It was ordered that the county consent to the improvement on Fruit street, in the city of Santa Ana, and that the county pay their share for such improvement. The purchasing agent was authorized to purchase the furniture used by the harbor commissioners for a price not to exceed $143.19. Names for the trial jury for the year 1927 were drawn, as per order of the superior court. Map tract No. 627 was accepted as the official plotting of said tract. Names, streets accepted, lettered Lots A, B, C, D, and E not accepted. NEW TRAFFIC MANAGER Announcement has just been made of the appointment of F. W. Robinson as vice-president in charge of traffic of the Union Pacific system, succeeding H. M. Adams, resigned. The new traffic head of the Union Pacific entered the service of that company in 1891 as an employee of the passenger accounting department and, after serving in various other accounting departments of the company for eight years, was transferred to the general freight department in Omaha, in 1899. In 1906 Robinson became a member of the staff of the director of traffic of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific in Chicago, both systems being under the same management at that time. In 1910 he was appointed assistant general freight agent of the Union Pacific at Portland, and in 1912 was made assistant to the director of traffic, with headquarters in Chicago. Three years later he was made assistant traffic manager of the O. W. R. & N. unit of the Union Pacific in Portland. The actual tree planting began at about 10:30 o'clock at the Saturday picnic, and by noon the supply of trees that had been brought to the field had been placed in the ground by voluntary workers. About thirty members of the Tustin and Villa Park Agricultural Clubs were present to carry trees, and they were given a chance to plant many of them. Representatives of four or five farm centers constituted a crew large enough to keep Foresters Elliott, Stephenson and Northcross busy directing the work. Holes for the trees had been previously dug by the prison gang and filled with "top dirt" so the volunteers accomplished astonishing results with a minimum of exertion. The location of this demonstrational plot is on the park property, immediately southwest of the playground, on a gentle sloping hillside, on which several varieties of soil are present. After a "bring your own" picnic lunch at the picnic grounds, the crowd gathered to hear short talks on forestry by Clifford Stanford, assistant chief forester of Los Angeles county; J. E. Elliott, supervisor of the Cleveland national forest; Willard Smith, supervisor of Orange county, and Prof. Woodbridge Metcalf, extension specialist in forestry, who made a flying trip from Berkeley to be present at the event. Mrs. George T. Kellogg, chairman of the tree conservation committee of the Orange County Federated Woman's Club, gave a short address, explaining the ladies' interest in the occasion and relating the program of forestry education they had in mind for their clubs. "This is a project that we hope will never end," Willard Smith stated in discourse. "We may now get to see the ultimate benefits of this work, but we are leaving a monument to our children and children's children, and will prevent them from strife with a desolate waste. Forestry statistics show that California is even now a lumber importing state. By 1930 Oregon and Washington will be the only states that can produce their own timber supply. This fact lends weight to our endeavor to develop and conserve our water supply by the means of forestry." FOOD FROM THE NORTH The reindeer industry in Alaska, although a comparatively recent commercial undertaking, promises to become an important factor in the future development of the territory, says the biological survey of the United States department of agriculture. The original stock of 1280 animals imported to Alaska from Siberia, about 25 years ago, has increased to nearly 350,000 distributed in 110 herds. More than 1,000,000 pounds of reindeer meat was exported from Alaska during 1924 and 1925, and a steady increase in the output and demand is indicated. When properly produced and handled, the meat compares favorably with beef. It is fine grained, contains a good, palatable fat, and when fresh is exceptionally juicy and tender. Our work here today is a service to the future—a savings account payable to our future prosperity." Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Halpin of Los Angeles were in Anaheim on Sunday, visiting old-time friends and neighbors. Ben Rimpau of Hollywood came down the first of the week to visit his relatives and old friends in this city for a few days. $135 Buys Mozart plano, good tone, pretty case; easy terms; $5 down.
