California’s Heavy Potato Production Record of More Than 1000 Bushels Per Acre Made In 1927, the potato production of California amounted to 7,360,000 bushels, as reported by the California co-operative crop reporting service. While this state does not figure as one of the large potato producers of the nation, it does figure in heavy production per acre in a manner to exceed all other sections of the country, as two world’s records are held by potato growers here. In 1926, Zuckerman brothers, operating on their 2800-acre farm in the delta region of San Joaquin county and raising annually approximately 1500 acres of potatoes, established a world’s record by producing on a measured acre 1038 bushels of potatoes and on 10 acres an average per acre of 1001 bushels. This year, however, Fred Rindge exceeded the Zuckerman record by 40 bushels. The Rindge tract includes some 6800 acres with approximately 2500 acres in potatoes. A measured acre, carefully surveyed and harvested under the supervision of the state department of agriculture, produced this year 1078½ bushels, or approximately 64,707 pounds. The bulk of the potatoes on both these tracts graded U.S. No. 1. On the Zuckerman tract over 90 per cent were U.S. fancy. The latest scientific knowledge has been applied in the handling of every phase of potato production on these properties and new investigations are constantly being tried out and put into practice when found practicable. Factory methods are applied in the digging and grading of their potato crops, and special machinery has been developed to handle operations. Foresters Describe Timber Management In the soil, it is desirable, and emphasizes the fact that provision must be made for maintaining the supply. The practical way to do this is to turn under farm manure, crop residues and green manures. A good legume cover crop each year helps materially to supply organic matter. This is a cheap source of organic material, but cannot be depended upon as a sole source in bearing citrus groves. Ample quantities of barnyard manure, bean straw or alfalfa straw and hay are the principal sources of organic matter in Orange county. The amounts necessary will depend on the crop.

Foresters Describe Timber Management Forest management in America is coming into its own, according to the forest service, United States department of agriculture. "For many years," it is declared, "foresters in this country were forced, because of lack of American experience, to preach and practice methods transplanted bodily from Europe. But when a background of actual practice and a better understanding of the silvicultural and economic factors peculiar to this country had been acquired, there came about a general realization that we could not begin where Europe left off; that we must, to a certain degree at least, meet American conditions with American methods." Presenting the best that has been developed in forest management in this country through experience and study, an exposition of the methods of making forest plans has just been published as miscellaneous publication No. 11-M, "Management Plans," written by Inman F. Eldredge, formerly a forest inspector in the forest service. While the publication was written with special reference to the national forests, it contains much information useful to foresters and timber owners generally, especially those who are engaged in making or carrying out management plans. Timber is a long-time crop. To grow a stand of timber to merchantable size and to perpetuate the crop requires usually the work of a succession of forest managers, and it is necessary that a far-sighted plan, which is practicable over a long period, even though capable of modification to meet changing conditions, be established at the outset. The preparation of a management plan involves generally the division of the forest into working circles, the assembling of all pertinent data and maps for study and analysis of the working circle concerned, decision upon the objectives of management, determination of silvicultural systems to be used, calculation of the yield, formulation of the policy to govern the timber sale business, choice of areas from which timber is to be cut during the first cutting period, and presentation of the material in a workable plan. In an appendix to the publication are given the management plans which have been put into effect for the Custer Working Circle, Harney National Forest, South Dakota; Meadow Valley Working Circle, Plumas National Forest, California; Woodland Working Circle, Pike National Forest, Colo., and the Rio Pueblo Working Circle, Carrson Na-50 per cent were U.

Orange County Soils Need Organic Matter By HAROLD E. WAHLBERG Farm Advisor Soils of Southern California, including our Orange county soils, are normally deficient in organic matter. The arid climatic conditions of this region for ages has not been conducive to the growth of much vegetative covering which could go back into the soil to build up a virile organic content as we might find in the humid areas. Not only has native vegetation been scarce, but direct sun action has tended to burn up and consume a portion of the limited quantity returned to the soil. For the proper management of most of these soils, therefore, regular applications of bulky organic matter should be made. The physical effect of organic matter in the soil is to promote good tilth. Soils in good tilth are much easier to cultivate and do not turn up in great hard chunks at the time of plowing. The organic matter promotes granulation and mellowness in the soil. It also increases the water-holding capacity and aids in the percolation of rain water, and the proper development of plant roots. Likewise, the presence of organic matter in the soil encourages the activities of many desirable bacteria which aid in making the necessary plant foods available. During a large part of the year the organic matter already present in the soil is being decomposed. Although this decreases the amount of organic matter adopted. Birds for furnishing equipment and current necessary for the lighting of the Midway City Lighting District will be received up to 10 a.m., April 17, 1928. Held Fifth Annual Date Institute According to H. E. Wahlberg, farm advisor, Orange county, an all day meeting will be held in Coachella valley at the Coachella Valley Union high school on Saturday, March 31, beginning at 9:30 a.m. The program for the day is as follows: Morning Session 1. Fertilizing experiments with bearing date palms and discussion of same. 2. Pollenizing experiments and general discussion. 3. Picking methods as applied to tall palms and general discussion. Afternoon Session 1. Prevention of rain damage to late crops with general discussion. 2. Co-operation as applied to the date industry. 3. Observations on date growing in Morocco and Algeria, illustrated lecture by Dr. W. T. Swingle. Arrangements Made For Implement Meet With the co-operation of local implement dealers, two meetings are being scheduled by the Agricultural Extension Service to discuss implement repair and adjustment. In the forenoon there will be discussions on tillage methods and equipment, some points in the selection and improvement of farm machinery, tractor and implement hitches and plow adjustment. The afternoon will be devoted to a display and demonstration of improved tillage implements provided by the dealers. The first meeting on April 10 will be at the Mabury ranch, east of Santa Ana, beginning at 10 in the morning and running all day, with time out for lunch. The second meeting will be at the C.C. Chapman ranch, east of Fullerton, on April 11, beginning at 10 a.m., and likewise running the rest of the day. The speakers on the program will be men largely from the College of Agriculture.

California's mammoth playground, on what promises to be the most unique and unusual swimming pool in any of the national parks. Contrary to the usual rectangular type of professional swimming pool, guests of the Union Pacific will have a chance to disport themselves this season in a regular "oil swimmin' hole," which follows the irregular contours of the old boyhood pool, overhung with wiliows, were cigarettes were rolled of cornsilk and boys "chawed beef" in the good old-fashioned way of youth. There will be every convenience of dressing room, shower, and the most modern water purifying apparatus, with all of the protections of health of scientific water treatment. The charm of varying contours, of natural stone paving, of compositions of trees framing the pavillon, of willows casting their shadows over the deep end, will be woven into a picture to delight the eyes of boys grown up. Sunlight will play across the pool, but shaded seats for visitors will let the public gaze upon the charm of this bit of nature developed for the delight of Zion's visitors. Many special trains over the Union Pacific will carry guests from the East and from California to Zion, the wonderland of beauty just around the corner from Southern California. Plans were prepared by Architect Gilbert Stanley Underwood, known for his accomplishments in the field of environmental architecture, and construction will be carried on under the direction of the engineering department of the Union Pacific.

MILITARISM A terrible and militaristic piece of news appeared in the paper recently. A big gun was reported as on its way to be set in the defense of the Panama canal. It is seventy feet long, which is bad enough, and weighs 735,000 pounds, which is worse. Undoubtedly it is intended to shoot shells at an attacking ship. Perhaps it might sink such a vessel, with loss of life on the part of the enemy. We shall expect an immediate protest from Oswald Garrison Villard in the Nation and other pacifists, and a denunciation of an administration that sanctions such a thing, and of presidential candidates who fail to raise their voices against it. Militarism must not go unrebukeled.
