California Fruit Is Favorite in Europe Dana King Declares Nothing Compares With Sunkist "During my three months' trip to the United Kingdom and continental Europe I have examined and eaten oranges from Florida, Spain, South Africa, South America, Cuba, and the Republic of Panama, and I have never before been so completely sold on the quality and value of the California product," said Dana King, orange sales manager of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, who recently returned from this extensive business trip. "For its clean, bright appearance, eating quality and standardization our fruit is recognized everywhere in the world as the standard of excellence." Our cousins abroad are rapidly gaining the same appreciation of the importance of fruit in the diet as has been developed in America, and a great deal is being accomplished by the "Eat More Fruit" campaigns in progress in Great Britain, Germany, and other countries, according to the exchange sales manager. Mr. King reached Europe when the markets there were well supplied with California oranges, and by personal inspections found the fruit to be arriving in good condition and giving excellent satisfaction. He called attention to the great advantage enjoyed by California in its ability to furnish the markets with oranges and lemons 365 days in the year. "I found that consumers all over the world known Sunkist," he said. "and the wisdom of our trademarking and advertising efforts were impressed on me during this trip more forcibly than ever before. There seems to be a romance about the word 'Sunkist' in many of the countries where they have little sunshine." In addition to the very rapidly expanding California orange business in Europe, Mr. King found good California grapefruit in increasing demand. The seedless or, as Europeans say, "pipless" feature of California grapefruit is appreciated abroad. Mr. King visited the citrus producing been the guest of Mrs. Russell Beach for the past two weeks. Registration clerks of Buena Park are Mrs. Vivian M. Cole, Mrs. Hattie A. Allen, and Mrs. Margaret Robeson.

The seedless or, as Europeans say, "pipless" feature of California grapefruit is appreciated abroad. Mr. King visited the citrus producing districts of Spain, which has over 200,000 acres planted to oranges. There is no accurate basis of estimating crops in Spain, but it was generally agreed that without loss from frost the present Spanish orange crop would amount to the equivalent of 30,000,000 boxes of California oranges or practically equal a combined normal California and Florida orange crop. Most of the Spanish crop is exported, and is moved in a little over six months. Although the industry is an old one, Mr. King found a very low degree of efficiency in Spanish cultural, packing and marketing methods as compared with those of California. "I am convinced of the necessity of the closest quarantine regulations to protect the vast fruit industries of California from pests and diseases that are rampant in many citrus sections," said Mr. King. "Introduction of these pests in California would mean terrific expense in an attempt at control, and great loss in quality of fruit and productivity of orchards. "It costs considerably more money per acre or per box to produce and deliver California fruit to the market than elsewhere," stated the exchange sales manager. "This is due to the high scale of American wages, distance from market and consequent, high freight rates, necessities of irrigation, fertilization, etc. As against this, the finest quality fruit in the world, plus marketing organization and advertising, brings a premium great enough to justify the additional cost." "As I see it," said Mr. King, "the greatest advantage we enjoy in California is the successful effort of the California Fruit Growers Exchange in the orderly marketing of our citrus crops. The plan today is much the same as was devised some thirty-five years ago by the pioneers of the industry. Naturally, improvements have been made in the organization and its plan of operation, but the fundamental principles remain the same, that of distributing the crop of each variety over the maximum period in which it can be successfully marketed, and distributing the fruit as it is sent forward over the widest territory in our own country and abroad in proportion to the abilities and inclination of consumers to use our products." Producers and business people in general in other parts of the world are familiar with the California Fruit Growers Exchange, and many of them asked why an organization so successful did not market all or a greater per- Gov.

Producers and business people in general in other parts of the world are familiar with the California Fruit Growers Exchange, and many of them asked why an organization so successful did not market all or a greater percentage of California's citrus crops, according to Mr. King. Buena Park Notes (By MRS. J. P. ROBISON) About forty ladies were present at the pot-luck luncheon given by the Ladies' Ald and Missionary Society Thursday afternoon, at which "Sylvia," the blind cook was the guest of honor, and favored the company with a very inspiring talk. In the business meeting, Mrs. Fred Bastady, the new president, appointed the standing committees for the year—flower, welcome, visiting, publicity, and finance. It was decided to give $300 more to the building committee, making $800 in all that has been given of the $1000 pledged. A devotional meeting was held by the missionary society and a prayer circle formed. C. H. Morlarty was called to San Diego by the death of his sister last week. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Spohn have moved to Long Beach to be near his work. The Buena Park fire department is planning a vaudeville entertainment for February 14. A new barber shop and beauty parlor opened for business in the Nelson Ellmore building Saturday. M. L. Sloan from Stockton will have charge of the barber shop and Mrs. Mao Thornton of Buena Park will manage the beauty parlor. Mrs. Thornton has been employed in a large establishment in Los Angeles. Mrs. Pearl Davis of Long Beach has Gov. Young Will Open San Bernardino Show Official acceptance has just been made by Governor C. C. Young of the invitation of the National Orange Show to open the eighteenth show in San Bernardino, on February 16. It is also announced that Governor Young will remain in the city over Friday and will present the solid gold diamond studded medal to the winner of the world's champion orange grower contest. Saturday, February 18, has been set aside for the California Newspaper Publishers' Association. The editors will be guests of the show management at a luncheon meeting, later visiting the show. It is expected that 300 will be in the party. The date of the annual citrus institute has also been announced. It is scheduled for Thursday, February 23. The state department of agriculture, citrus experiment station and horticultural commissioners are co-operating in the program. As the date for the show approaches all is excitement at the orange show grounds. A small army of artisans, decorators, painters, carpenters, designers and booth builders is engaged in transforming the big exposition building into its new dress for the eighteenth show. The orange show strives to outdo itself each year with more elaborate decorations than previously. That the decorations for the forthcoming show will be different than heretofore is evident. The Parishian motif prevails. Interest in every department is very keen and, if fair weather prevails, Manager R. H. Mack expects all attendance records will be broken. Forest Grazing Fees Increased This Year Beginning with the 1928 spring season, an increase in grazing fees now in effect will be charged for the running of livestock in the national forests of California, according to announcement by S. B. Show, chief of the California district, United States Forest Service. A like increase will be made each year until 1931, or until the present fee reaches the maximum of from 15 to 19 cents per head per month for cattle, and from 4½ to 6 cents per head per month for sheep. This maximum rate will then be applied from 1931 to 1934, and will continue for the 10-year period beginning 1935, unless there should be a material change in conditions existing at that time which affect the equitable determination of fair compensation for the use of government ranges. These new fees, according to Mr. Show, are the result of an exhaustive study of national forest grazing conditions and ranges made by the forest service during the past seven years. In this study, which covered 156,000,000 acres of federal lands, each national forest range unit was appraised according to topography, accessibility, quality of forage, water resources, etc., and compared with 760,000 acres of privately owned range lands of like quality, within or adjacent to the national forests, which were leased for grazing purposes. The appraisal brought out the fact that such private grazing lands, for the period 1914-1922, returned a revenue of 30 cents per month head for cattle and 10 cents per month head for sheep. A re-check of over one million acres of private lands in 1925 increased this return to 39 cents for cattle and 10.6 cents for sheep. Following the completion of this study by the forest service, the secretary of agriculture sent his personal representative, Dan Casement of Colorado, a nationally known stock producer and for many years a user of national forest range, into the West to make a thorough investigation of the appraisal. Mr. Casement's recommendations for certain reductions in the rates determined by the study were accepted by the secretary and the forest service. Cite Bastanchurys For Alien Importers Head of Ranch Vigorously Denies Charge; Will Fight Case Owners of the Bastanchury ranch have been charged by federal authorities with importing Mexican laborers illegally into this country for the purpose of working on the ranch. Gaston Bastanchury indignantly denies the charge, stating that they are not in need of such labor. The action was termed by news reports as "the first of a number of suits which are expected by government officials to establish the identity of wealthy land owners responsible for the importation of several hundred 'contract laborers,' said to have been brought in from Mexico in violation of the immigration laws." The suit alleges that the Bastanchury Ranch Company, William J. Heger, an executive in the company’s employ, and others, solicited and induced an alien contract laborer, Donatiano Sanchez, a Mexican, "to come to the Orange county ranch, controlled by the Bastanchury interests." The government asked a specific penalty of $1000 as provided by immigration regulations. In a companion action, the government sought to collect $2000 from the Bastanchury Ranch Company, John Joseph and Gaston Bastanchury and Raymond Easton, for the alleged illegal importation of two Mexican ranch workers, Gabriel and Juan Elcantar. Bastanchury stated that the alleged episode involving Sanchez had never come to his notice. He knew nothing, he said, concerning asserted illegal importation of Mexicans. On the Bastanchury ranch, consisting of 80000 acres, there are now between 400 and 500 Mexicans, many of whom rent from the company. Bastanchury said: "There is no reason why we should seek more labor," he continued, "let alone seek it through illegal means. The fact is that there is now, and has been for two years, too much help part of the county and make their homes with their renter friends on our ranch." The Los Angeles advices stated that federal agents there, acting under orders from Washington, were conducting an investigation to determine the "ways and means" by which several thousand suspected aliens were brought across the border and given contracts on major ranches in Southern California.

Try an burn 'em Johns-Manville Rigid Asbestos Shingles Telephone 801 GIBBS Get License Plates Now, Advises Bureau "Make haste!" This admonition has gone forth from the state division of motor vehicles to the thousands of California motorists who have not yet purchased their 1928 license plates. In a statement made public through the National Automobile Club's touring bureau, it is pointed out that the license period will positively end at midnight on January 31, and that thereafter 100 per cent penalty will be exacted. There is yet time," says the vehicle division, "for motor vehicle owners to get their new plates, but the time is growing shorter. Midnight on January 31 is the zero hour, for after that there will be a penalty. Now is the time for the thrifty to get their license plates at the stipulated $3 per set. After midnight on January 31, however—and that does not mean one minute after midnight—they must pay an additional $3 to get the plates." Isn't it worth while, asks the touring bureau of the club, to save this $3 while there is yet time? The bureau is prepared to handle the rush that will undoubtedly elapse on the night of January 31 and will handle all comers. The minute the clock strikes midnight the bureau will have to begin adding the $3 penalty in obedience to the mandate of the state law. There cannot be any exceptions, the bureau points out. Therefore, now is the accepted time to get those license plates, continues the club bureau. No. 422 B Mother!
