Californian Warns Against Jap Pests Issues Bulletin After Studying Insects of Islands "The Citrus Insects of Japan" is the title of Technical Bulletin No. 15, by Curtis P. Clausen, recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. This bulletin is of especial interest to California citrus growers not only because of the subject, but also because the author is a former Californian whose observations were made with particular attention to comparison with California conditions. Clausen was one of the first insectary men in California. He was sent Japan to search for and collect parasites and predators of the various citrus insect pests occurring in California; and has had later opportunities to continue his observations in connection with his work in the federal bureau of entomology. The bulletin is summarized by the author as follows: "This bulletin is designed to make accessible to American entomologists and fruit growers, in brief form, the information on Japanese citrus pests that has been published in Japan, together with observations made in that country by the writer. "Citrus culture in Japan dates so far back that many insects that may have been introduced from other countries have reached the status of native pests, restricted by natural control. "The climate of Japan corresponds to that of Florida rather than to that of California. None of the more serious citrus pests of Japan are found as such in California, whereas a list of the relatively unimportant pests of Japan includes practically all of the injurious citrus insects of California and Florida. "The most serious scale insects are the yanone scale, the red wax scale, the orange pulvinaria, the chaff scale, the aspidistra scale, and Glover's scale. "The small size and the location of the groves render the use of large farm Bureau Sees A Ray of Sunshine A ray of sunshine broke through the clouds that have been hovering over the farm bureau and other people interested in the reapportionment of our legislative representatives along the lines designated in the constitutional amendment which passed at the last election. This sunshine is accounted for by the reported weakening of the opposition to the reapportionment measure. A bill was introduced in the last session of the legislature to divide the state according to the provisions of the constitutional amendment. The operation of this division was held up by a referendum petition submitted by opponents. Headed by the farm bureau law and utilities department, an effort was made to invalidate the referendum petition in a suit pending before Judge Shields in Sacramento county. His honor declared that the question was too involved and too big a question for him to decide, so the matter was taken to the supreme court on a special writ, which would permit arguments, and while it seemed that those in favor of the measure were gaining ground, the word leaked out that regardless of the decision of the supreme court, an effort would be made to put an initiative measure on the ballot repealing the federal plan of apportionment, a statement which caused the dark cloud of apprehension to surround the measure. Now comes the information that the motive force behind the opposition to federal reapportionment is also the spokesman for the Hoover presidential campaign in California, and that Mr. Hoover does not care to have his chances impaired or embarrassed by the local scrap, and this is the ray of sunshine mentioned above. However, farm bureau officials and federal reapportioners are not slacking up their efforts to defeat the referendum measure and secure the apportionment of our legislative representatives according to the lines of the present constitution as amended. Toward this end they are urging all those who live in the rural districts to register and be prepared to vote, should she "The climate of Japan corresponds to that of Florida rather than to that of California. None of the more serious citrus pests of Japan are found as such in California, whereas a list of the relatively unimportant pests of Japan includes practically all of the injurious citrus insects of California and Florida. "The most serious scale insects are the yanone scale, the red wax scale, the orange pulvinaria, the chaff scale, the aspidistra scale, and Glover's scale. "The small size and the location of the groves render the use of large spraying and fumigating units economically or physically impractible. No co-operative organizations at present exist. "The survey shows that there are citrus pests in the east which have not yet been introduced into the United States, and which might prove to be dangerous species here." An investigation of the dictyospermium scale, a serious pest of the avocado in Florida, and of citrus in southern Europe, is to be made by the state department of agriculture. George R. Wilson has been sent to Florida to study the habits of this pest, and on the basis of his findings the state department of agriculture is to determine the advisability of placing restrictions on the importation of host plants of the dictyospermium scale. The list of hosts of this scale includes the cocos palms. The popularity of cocos plumosus for ornamental planting has resulted in the importation in increasing quantities of Florida grown stock to supply the demand. While the dictyospermium scale has already been introduced into California, it has as yet been found only in lath houses and greenhouses, and there is therefore some doubt as to the possibility of its becoming an outdoor pest in this climate. Inasmuch as the avocado in this state is practically free of serious insect pests, avocado growers especially have felt some alarm over the introduction of host plants of this major pest, particularly in view of the difficulty of detecting the presence, of the scale in a plant with sheathing fronds, like the cocos palms. Successful Campaign Concluded by Bureau The two months' membership campaign of the Orange County Farm Bureau was officially closed Wednesday night. "Application for membership will be received any time in the year by any of the farm-bureau officials," A. M. Stanley, secretary-manager of the organization, stated in discussing the campaign, "but active solicitation of members ended March 1, and we expect to turn our active attention to other pressing projects. "As a whole, the campaign was a decided success and we were successful in making a substantial increase to our membership. The paid-up members reported to the county office at this time is in excess of last year's membership and from experience we know there spokesman for the Hoover presidential campaign in California, and that Mr. Hoover does not care to have his chances impaired or embarrassed by the local scrap, and this is the ray of sunshine mentioned above. However, farm bureau officials and federal reapportioners are not slacking up in their efforts to defeat the referendum measure and secure the apportionment of our legislative representatives according to the lines of the present constitution as amended. Toward this end they are urging all those who live in the rural districts to register and be prepared to vote, should the initiative measure changing the constitution be placed on the ballot. California Is 17th in Surfaced State Roads Due to its failure to adopt the one-cent increase in gas tax in 1925, California now stands seventeenth in states in total of surfaced state highway mileage, with 3537 miles. New York has 9853 miles of surfaced roads in its state highway system, and holds first place among the states. Next in surfaced mileage is Ohio with 9591 miles, while Texas is third with 9256 miles of surfaced state highways. Other state highway mileages of surfaced roads are as follows: Pennsylvania, 8439; Wisconsin, 8420; Minnesota, 6353; Michigan, 6229; North Carolina, 5464; Louisiana, 4707; Illinois, Investigate The Modern Electric Range It is Fast and Economical The modern electric range will do any cook could expect from any pair cooking apparatus and do it better.

"As a whole, the campaign was a decided success and we were successful in making a substantial increase to our membership. The paid-up members reported to the county office at this time is in excess of last year's membership and from experience we know there are many memberships that have not yet been reported by the committee. Because of this fact we will not definitely know the total increase for several days, but we are well pleased. "There will be a little more membership work done in Yorba Linda, La Habra and Capistrano, where arrangements have already been made, but otherwise the 1928 drive is over." Resistance of Citrus To Disease Explained Resistance of sour orange to the bark disease, pythiaecystis gummosis, has been substantiated by tests carried on by the citrus experiment station of the University of California, and several new forms have been brought to light that may be classed as resistant. These include the hybrid Sampson tangelo, some of the citranges, trimble tangerine, Lester mandarin, and others. These tests are being conducted not only at the citrus experiment station, according to Dr. H. J. Webber, director of the station, but also at various localities throughout the citrus-growing area. As judged by the results of the work, the various species, hybrids and varieties of citrus, exhibit all degrees of susceptibility and resistance, ranging from the almost complete resistance of sour orange to the extreme susceptibility of lemon. Sweet oranges and grapefruit are intermediate. An experimental plot of root stocks was established last year at the Irvine ranch in co-operation with the farm advisor's office. Disease resistance andCompatibility of scion and root stocks will be studied.
