All Parts of World Use American Cars
Uncle Sam's Greatest Industry Spreading to Foreign Lands
In this period of automobile salons and shows, it is interesting to know that the official figures give us 22,342,457 motor vehicles in these United States—at least those were the figures when 1927 dawned, and the manufacturers have been very busy these last few weeks. The production predicted for this year will reach or exceed 4,500,000, and of these something more than 600,000 will be exported to foreign countries, according to the National Automobile Club.
When you drive out in the family "bus" on Sunday, you begin to realize what it means to have approximately a car for every family in the country, but the people who live overseas have a long way to go before they reach such a density of automobile population.
However, American manufacturers are peacefully penetrating these foreign countries and there is hardly an inhabited country from pole to pole where the American passenger car or truck, or tractor, is not helping to civilize and modernize the country.
Only the other day there appeared a statement that a Cape-to-Cairo highway had been completed, and that the journey by motor car may now be made in 10 days. It is true motorists are advised to carry firearms in case of attack by wild animals, and 10 days seems a short time in which to span a gap that measures approximately 4500 miles in an airline, yet any sort of a motor highway would be an improvement over conditions that caused Sir Safrudd Baker to take three years in traveling only about half the distance, 60 years ago, in his successful search for the sources of the Nile.
British influence undoubtedly has had much to do with the rapid progress made in South Africa and in East Africa. Where Sir Rider Haggard laid his weird romances and Theodore Roosevelt secured his best shooting on the slopes of Mt. Kenya, huge plantations are producing coffee for the consumption of the world, and excellent highways, traversed by American motor trucks, serve to carry the products tators, hoping for a way out that will bring with it a new era of prosperity, which will be sure to open up to travel a country rich in history and legend.
American motorists are doing much to open up these foreign lands to motor travel, and American methods of production and the energy of foreign representatives of the great motor car builders are fast overcoming the resentment against American commercial invasion and American products. The cars, trucks and motor accessories we see in New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles at the shows and salons are the same products that America is selling overseas, and to meet foreign competition they must above all be economical of fuel and upkeep, capable of continued travel over rough and rugged roads, and simple of mechanism. That these factors have been met, the export figures of the last few years stand in mute evidence.

Switzerland always brings to mind towering snow-clad mountains and narrow passes; a St. Bernard with a small cask of wine fastened to his collar, or a string of mountainers, strung along a safety rope, and flourishing alpenstocks, struggling along the sheer sides of a crevassed-seamed glacier. Yet there were roads of a sort when Hannibal crossed the Alps into Italy in 218 B.C., and Napoleon 2000 years later succeeded in overcoming Switzerland's snow-clad passes with his cavalry and artillery. Today Switzerland may be said to be thoroughly motorized, and somewhere in the neighborhood of where Arminius and his Roman legions were destroyed in the early years of the present era paved highways and an abundance of motor cars and trucks provide rapid transportation that might have led the Romans out of the enemy country to safety.
In the Balkans, the seat of European political troubles since Attila and his Hins made their wild raid into central France, 1500 years ago, there are fewer highways and the grades are steep, the turns sharp, and the way often rough, yet the motor truck, more often than not of American make, is fast replacing the ox-cart and the pack animal, and American motor car manufacturers, working hand in hand with American oil interests, are developing a civilization that may yet bring peace to a troubled country where the blood of the South, the North, the East and the West are intermingled perhaps more indiscriminately than anywhere else throughout the whole world.
Norway, Sweden and Denmark, far north to the Arctic circle, have use for the motor vehicle and have built their roads well. Germany, France and Britain have better roads than we, but Britain have better roads than we, but fuel is more expensive and motor cars and trucks are used almost exclusively for business. The "Man With the Hoe" in Russia still is looking toward the sod and development seems at a standstill until the awakening comes. Italian roads are quite good in the northern part, but in central, and particularly the southern part, they are rough and ill-kept. Spain and Portugal are struggling along between revolutions and dic-
definite figures are not available. It is well known that many of our automobile accidents involve stolen cars. The individual who steals a car is usually a reckless and dangerous driver. He may not be accustomed to driving a car of the make or type he has stolen, and this alone would make him a menace to other persons using the road. After stealing an automobile, a thief is naturally fearful of detection and, therefore, drives quickly from the scene of his crime with little or no thought for the safety of others; he is thinking only of his own escape. In the event he is pursued, as is often the case, an accident may easily occur. We often read in the newspapers of a bandit or bootlegger chase which ends in a fatal collision. Because of their high severity record, stolen car accidents deserve particular attention.
One of the best means of preventing automobile theft, according to the Hoover committee, is the certificate of title law for automobiles which has been very effectively used in Pennsylvania as well as sixteen other states and which is now proposed for California under assembly bill No. 543, amending the Motor Vehicle Act introduced by Assemblyman Lyons of Los Angeles.
Under the Lyons bill a chain of title such as attaches to real estate would be possible of development in California tending to reduce highway accidents by making the possession of stolen cars a more difficult matter than under the existing Motor Vehicle Act.
Soaking any kind of fresh meat before cooking is a mistake. It draws out the juices which give the characteristic flavor and add to its food value. If the meat needs cleaning, wipe it off with a damp cloth or trim it.
The Mexican government reports that all revolutionary movements have been put down, which indicates that the government still has control of the press bureaus.

Meeting Endorses State Parks Plan
Program Outlined at Gathering at San Francisco
A comprehensive state parks program for California, as outlined in three bills now before the California legislature, was given enthusiastic endorsement at a meeting in the Palace hotel. Monday, February 7, attended by representatives of a number of California's leading organizations interested in conservation, recreation and outdoor life. Duncan McDuffie, chairman of the California state parks committee, presided.
The meeting took action endorsing Senate bills Nos. 439, 440 and 441, introduced by Senator A. H. Breed, which provide for a central state park commission to unify the administration of all parks, sites of historical interest, and similar properties owned by the state; for a comprehensive survey of the state's park properties, to serve as the basis for a well-balanced state park system in the future, and for submission to the voters in November, 1928, of a $6,000,000 bond issue, the proceeds of which are to be used to pay one-half the cost of park projects approved by the state park commission, the balance of the cost to be contributed by private gifts and from other sources.
Those present were Duncan McDuffie, chairman of the state parks committee; William E. Colby of the Sierra Club; Winfield Scott, Miss Susan P. Thew, and Mrs. Harriet West Jackson of Stockton, from the Calaveras Big Trees Association; William Orrick of the Point Lobos Association; Hillary Crawford of the Marin park committee of the Tamalplas Conservation Club; J. C. Sperry and Newton B. Drury of the Save-the-Redwoods League.
Messages of interest in the program were received from mClair S. Tappan, chairman of the California State Parks Association, with headquarters in Los Angeles, and from other citizens from the southern portion of the state.
Following are the arguments in favor of the state park commission bill (Senate bill No. 439):
Creates a state park commission of five, serving without salary, appointed matter of park development and may outline a rational plan. It is believed that when a state park plan is definitely outlined large sums of money and donations of land can be obtained from private sources for the carrying out of this plan.
Summer Session In Horticulture
As a part of the summer session activities of the University of California a six weeks' summer session in subtropical horticulture is to be held at the citrus experiment station, Riverside, during the period June 25 to August 6. This will be the fourth of these undertakings on the part of the university, a similar session having been held last year with an enrollment of 18 students.
The session is designed especially to provide an opportunity for high school agriculture teachers and for students in colleges of agriculture to obtain the practical and theoretical phases of subtropical fruit culture in California. Special courses will be offered dealing with the citrus fruits, and the other subtropical fruits of importance in California, including the fig, olive, avocade, persimmon and date, and courses dealing with insect pests and diseases affecting these fruits.
A strong teaching staff has been organized, including some of the most prominent leaders in subtropical horticulture in California. Prof. Robert W. Hodgson, head of the division of subtropical horticulture of the university, will be in charge of the session.
"INSIDE" INFORMATION
If building or remodeling a kitchen, make it oblong rather than square, to save steps in doing the work and to distribute the equipment advantageously.

2-Arcade Building.
3-Swimming Pool Pergolas.
Said work shall be done in accordance with the plans and specifications prepared by M. Eugene Durfee, Architect, and approved and adopted by said Board of Trustees on February 10th, 1927, which said plans are marked and designated "Open Air Auditorium for City Park, Anaheim, California," sheets 1, 2 and 3; "Arcade Building for City Park, Anaheim, California," sheets 4 and 5; and "Swimming Pool Pergolas."
Lobos Association, Hillary Crawford of the Marin park committee of the Tamaplas Conservation Club, J. C. Sperry and Newton B. Drury of the Save-the-Redwoods League.
Messages of interest in the program were received from mClair S. Tappaan, chairman of the California State Parks Association, with headquarters in Los Angeles, and from other citizens from the southern portion of the state.
Following are the arguments in favor of the state park commission bill (Senate bill No. 439):
Creates a state park commission of five, serving without salary, appointed by the governor; abolishes three commissions, the California state park commission, the Mt. Diablo state park commission, the San Pasquall monument commission; also takes over three parks now administered by the state forestry board.
Advantages: 1. Uniform administration; 2. Economy through centralized control; 3. A board primarily interested in parks; 4. assurance of a well-thought-out park policy; 5. prevention of state being burdened with properties not suitable for state parks; 6. possibility of revenue from parks which will ultimately meet their cost of upkeep; 7. creation of contingent fund whereby revenues obtained from state parks can be used for their improvement; 8. assurance of proper development of one of California's major assets which attract millions of visitors and bring millions of dollars into the state; 9. a responsible commission and well-developed park system which will attract large gifts from individuals and organizations because they will be confident of proper administration; exclusive of state funds appropriated, the Save-the-Redwoods League has raised more than a million dollars for this purpose, to be devoted to the establishment of a redwood park; 10. plan has approval and is widely sponsored by California organizations with hundreds of thousands of members; 11. the movement is endorsed by national authorities, such as the National Park Service and the National Conference on State Parks.
The state park survey bill (Senate bill No. 440) provides for survey of the state to determine what areas should ultimately be acquired by the state. This is necessary in order that the state may know where it stands in the save steps in doing the work and to distribute the equipment advantageously.
The kitchen is, above all else, a place to prepare and serve food. Limit it to this use if possible, and arrange for laundering and such work to be done in another place.
To make a soup more interesting or festive, as well as to improve its flavor, add to each plate, at the last minute, a little minced parsley or a half slice of lemon, or both. If its is a meat soup. A spoonful of unsweetened whipped cream is good on many kinds of soup. Toasted squares of buttered bread (croutons), farina balls, and other garnishes often seen in restaurants are easily made at home.
In making quick breads and cakes, allow in general one to one and a half teaspoons of baking powder for each cup of flour. Pop-overs and sponge cakes are the exception and require no baking powder at all.
