Committee Approves Bills for Agriculture Proposed Farm Legislation at Sacramento Endorsed Farm organizations of California, represented by the agricultural legislative committee, have marshaled their forces on behalf of the most far reaching program of agricultural legislation ever attempted. The committee, acting for 40 commodity organizations with a membership of 75,000 farmers, has approved more than 50 of the 252 farm bills now pending and will work for their passage at the present legislative session. It is possible that a number of other measures will be added to this program. Unqualified endorsement of bills proposing the farm bureau plan of reapportionment has been given, but the committee opposes the substitute offered by Carter in A. C. A. 14. It also opposes Leymell's resolution to call a convention to revise the state constitution. The committee also favors Nelson's bill to provide for general investigation of the state tax system. It, likewise, favors Bogga' bill setting up a comprehensive county budget act. It favors the establishment of credit unions as proposed by Senator Hollisjer, but opposes a bill by Hurley which seeks to reduce the maximum rate of interest on loans from 12 per cent to 7 per cent. Commission merchant regulation as proposed by Deuel and others is favored, provided certain amendments are made. The Jones bills, providing complete revision of fruit and vegetable standardization and certification, have the whole-hearted backing of the committee. Jones' bill to control the amount of spray residue on fruits and vegetables is also a part of the committee's program, as is Bernard's bill to eliminate the black currant. A number of bills seeking to control noxious weeds and the promiscuous movement of hay and seeds containing objectionable weeds and pests are on the program. The committee has endorsed A. B. 464, by Jost, which is a repetition of the oleomargarine bill of two years ago, except that it excludes the 2 cents a pound tax provision. It is opposed, however, to Hornblower's bill to require the labeling of artificially colored Angus Ross of Sacramento for a small sum at a sale of household furniture at Davis, and later purchased from Ross by G. N. Merritt, president of the Bank of Yolo and Woodland and presented to the city of Davis. Students of agricultural development in California agree that there can never be too many farms of the type this prize is intended to encourage development of. This is the intensively developed holding on which a diversity of crops is produced—on which a few cows, hogs and sheep are grown—where there in constant revenue from poultry and some home-grown fruit or vegetable served on the table every day. Revenue Office Will Keep Open Saturday Internal Revenue Collector Galen H. Welch announces that for the accommodation of taxpayers he has arranged to keep the local internal revenue office, as well as all branch offices, open on Saturday, March 12, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Heretofore the revenue bureau has been closed on Saturday afternoons at 1 o'clock. Mr. Welch states that all available deputies will be assigned to the work of assisting taxpayers in preparing their income tax returns in an effort to minimize the inconvenience and congestion that always characterizes the rush of the last few days of the filing period which ends at midnight, March 15th. The collector also announces that his office will remain open until midnight, March 15, so that taxpayers may be afforded all the time possible before delinquency. Orange County Pioneer Passes Mrs. Teresa Sanchez, a member of one of Orange county's old Spanish families, died at the Queen of the Angels hospital in Los Angeles last week. Mrs. Sanchez was 62 years of age, being born in 1864, at Richfield, now known as Atwood. The deceased leaves three sons, Jose Sanchez who graduated from the Fulerton Union high school nine years ago, and is now a well-known singer; William Sanchez of Fullerton, and Albert Sanchez of Los Angeles. She also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Hugh Glenn and Mrs. Carrie Noe. Prize Offered for 'One Farm' Exhibit To encourage the establishment of farms that always make money and a good living for the owner and his family is the object of the California National Bank of Sacramento in awarding a sterling silver sweepstakes trophy for the best "one farm" exhibit made at any fair in California in 1927. "One farm" exhibits will be a feature of California fairs this year. In 1926, at the Glenn county fair, at Orland, this section was one of the most attractively in the show. Every product shown in these displays must be grown by the farmer living on the farm or the members of his family. They will demonstrate the wide diversity of crops that can be grown on a California farm, and show conclusively that a farmer can not only produce practically everything he and his family eat, but that products can be grown or raised that can be sold for cash every day in the year. The awards at each fair will be made by the judge of the agricultural and horticultural divisions, and the following uniform scale of points will be followed: orchard products, fresh, 100 points; orchard products, dried, 100; nuts, 50; field crops, 100; garden crops, fresh, 100; flowers, 50; dairy products, 25; poultry products, 25; honey and bee products, 25; preserved fruits, 100; preserved vegetables, 100; meat products, 25; home-made clothing, 25; arrangement, 100, and neatness, 75, making a total of 1000 points. The list of products shown and the score of the first prize exhibit at each California fair, with a photograph of the exhibit will be sent to a committee consisting of R. G. Sproul, vice-president, University of California, Berkeley; R. N. Wilson, director of agriculture, California Development Association, San Francisco, and Dr. George P. Clements, manager agricultural department, Chamber of Commerce, Los Angeles. These three men will make the prize bill to control the amount of spray residue on fruits and vegetables is also a part of the committee's program, as is Bernard's bill to eliminate the black currant. A number of bills seeking to control noxious weeds and the promiscuous movement of hay and seeds containing objectionable weeds and pests are on the program. The committee has endorsed A. B. 464, by Jost, which is a repetition of the oleomargarine bill of two years ago, except that it excludes the 2 cents a pound tax provision. It is opposed, however, to Hornblower's bill to require the labeling of artificially colored and neutralized butter unless the autor amends it. In common with all the other farm bodies, the committee is opposed to the daylight saving bill introduced by West. The committee has thus far approved only one proposed change in the motor vehicle act, this being an amendment to give the livestock owner greater freedom and protection in driving stock on the highways at night. $85 Buys good used Storey & Clark piano.

The list of products shown and the score of the first prize exhibit at each California fair, with a photograph of the exhibit will be sent to a committee consisting of R. G. Sproul, vice-president, University of California, Berkeley; R. N. Wilson, director of agriculture, California Development Association, San Francisco, and Dr. George P. Clements, manager agricultural department, Chamber of Commerce, Los Angeles. These three men will make the sweepstakes award. That the winning of this prize will be a great honor not only for the winner, but the district in which he lives, goes without saying. The story of the farm on which the exhibit is grown, together with the varieties and everything else about the exhibitor and his family, will make a story that will be one of the most valuable pieces of California advertising that has ever been written. The California National Bank sweepstakes trophy is a sterling silver pitcher, suitably engraved, a beautiful piece of plate that is useful as well. It is something that can be used every day in the year for generations and the winner and his family can show with pride for many years. The pitcher is hand wrought and modelled after a design made by Paul Revere of Revolutionary fame. Revere was a very fine silversmith and his work was noted for its durability and simplicity of design. There is a silver pitcher in the vaults of the Bank of Yolo branch, at Davis, that was won by Jerome C. Davis in 1861 for the best improved and furnished stock farm in California. The university farm at Davis is a part of the old Davis farm that won this prize. As far as can be learned, this was the first and last time that a prize of this kind was ever offered in California until the present sweepstakes trophy of The California National Bank. The Davis trophy was bought by ANAHEIM GAZETTE TO SAVE THE CARELESS A bill calling for a bond issue of $25,000,000 for the purpose of eliminating grade crossings in this state has been introduced in the legislature now in session. One editor in commenting on this says: "Either we will pay money and save human lives, or we will lose lives to pay for our saving money." And that just about hits the nail on the head. But the manifestly urgent need to spend this huge sum for this purpose shows, too, how costly carelessness is. Every motorist knows, or should know, where rails and autos meet. Every motorist knows, or should know, that rails are laid for the accommodation of trains, of trains that usually are on time, but sometimes are not. Every motorist knows, or should know, that on the road watchfulness is the best policy. But though they know these things, all and several, still the grade crossing casualty lists grow by leaps and bounds. To save the carelessness from the results of their carelessness is expensive, as the $25,000,000 figure eloquently demonstrates. Is it the only thing to do? Predicts Big Growth During Coming Year Sales Manager of Richfield Oil Company Optimistic Returning to Los Angeles from a swing through the northern half of California, J. C. Graves, general manager of sales for the Richfield Oil Company, predicted record-smahling growth and prosperity during spring and summer. Already convinced of the favorable outlook in Southern California, Mr. Graves gave ten days to a thorough survey in the north. He visited the principal Richfield wholesaleing centers, San Francisco, Oakland, Stockton, Sacramento, San Jose, Chico and Marysville, and found the same encouraging conditions at each. "The exceptionally wet winter," he said, "closed many roads and travel declined accordingly. But it is a fortunate thing in more ways than one. These rains undoubtedly mean an agricultural season so productive that every avenue of trade and commerce will be stimulated. Agriculture and industry are healthy and prosperous. At the automobile agencies I found that enquiries and orders for new machines are exceptionally numerous. The newer types of cars are in demand. "That is the big side of it. The other side is that the temporary slowing up this winter was a blessing, since it has enabled us now to prepare for the increased business we are certain to do, our district managers without exception were agreed. We have accordingly completed our distribution system more thoroughly in the north. This has brought about agreements with scores of new dealers, both in cities we have heretofore served and in territory which is new to us." No, the demand for gasoline has not reached its maximum. Nor has the remarkable story of the growth of California as an American state been recorded by half. I hold myself in as I talk of it. Still, I say with confidence, California has just started to grow." The Richfield company's annual report will be issued next week and will be an illustrated booklet setting forth in detail the company's remarkable growth.

JUST DAY — SATURDAY THIS SALE END KAFATEE SHOE STO 109 WEST CENTER ST Compensation for Injured Prisoner Prisoners from the state penitentiaries employed in the construction of highways come within the provisions of the California Workmen's Compensation act and in case of injury are entitled to compensation. This decision of the state supreme court, in the case of the California Highway Commission vs. the Industrial Accident Commission and Robert Smith (72 Cal. Dec. page 582), is of considerable importance and has attracted much interest among those interested in development of the prison growth in the last four years. Earnings of approximately $3,000,000 on an outstanding capitalization of less than thirty million dollars will be shown, despite the fact that profits of several companies taken over by Richfield last September are reflected for a period of only a little more than three months. As stock was issued in payment for these companies, the outstanding capitalization was considerably increased by their purchase. The decision was rendered in the case of Robert Smith, a negro, who became blind as the result of an injury received in a premature blast on the Yosemite all-year highway. His case was fought through the commission and the courts to success by Milton J. Schmitt, an attorney of San Francisco, himself blind. An effort is now being made by the highway commission and the management of the state compensation insurance fund to determine the best method of providing the additional insurance for the men in the camps which the decision has made necessary. The amount of additional premiums which will be charged the commission has not yet been determined. Many a fellow who is busy watching the lines of the girls on the street would be better off watching his own waist line. Think how much pleasanter a time old Atlas would have had holding the world on his shoulders if he had only possessed a radio.
