Test Oil Sprays at Orange County Farm
Five Acres Set Apart by Supervisors for Experiment
A series of tests are being conducted with various oil sprays on orange trees at the Orange County Farm. The board of supervisors, acting at the request of a number of the local citrus associations, set aside a five-acre block of orange trees at the county farm for the experimental application of oil sprays under the supervision of the horticultural commissioner.
The tests were originally designed to observe the effects of various commercial oil preparation when sprayed on the same trees during the same month each year for a number of years. The effect on the fruit and tree was sought, rather than the effect on insect pests, and the orchard has therefore been fumigated at the usual time to take care of scale control.
The applications of spray materials were begun in March, 1926. After several applications of spray had been made, the opportunity to secure additional information was apparent, and the facilities were offered to a number of other investigators for observations. Thus, observations on the physical appearance of the fruit are conducted by H. J. Quayle and Ralph H. Smith, of the citrus experiment state, Riverside. C. H. Mann, of the United States Department of Agriculture, San Dimas, is conducting observations on the fruit durin gand after storage. Tests of the quality and composition of the juice are made by C. P. Wilson, chemist of the Exchange Orange Products Company, Ontario. General observations on the experiments are also made by R. S. Woglum and J. R. Lafollette, entomologists of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange. Recently, D. D. Waynick, manager of the association laboratory at Anaheim, began observations on the size and rate of growth of the fruit.

A meeting of the various research workers interested in the experiments was held on March 14, 1928. The results of observations to date were discussed, and plans formulated for future observation. It appeared from the discussion that July and August are the safest months for the application of heavy oil sprays, and that applications of heavy oils in November, and probably also in October and December, are dangerous.
Observations are to be continued during the succeeding year on the effects of various oil sprays on color, crystallization, physiography, decay, production, size and rate of growth, new growth, dead wood, bloom, climatic and other factors. Plots will be sprayed with the following materials: Oronite Cosmetic, Mineral Seal, Volck Concentrate, Volck Medium, Volck Light, Triple X Medium, Peerless, Blue Ribbon, and Triona. Applications of each of these materials will be made in March, July, September, November, and January.
Buena Park Notes
(By MRS. J. P. ROBISON)
The tree planting which was to have taken place at the new Lindbergh school will be next Saturday, as it rained too hard last Saturday. The school children will give an outdoor program, and Rev. B. Y. Neal will give a talk.
The funeral of Harold Jaynes, who died Tuesday afternoon at the Santa Ana hospital, was held Friday afternoon at Winbigler funeral home, in Santa Ana. Rev. Neal officiated at the services, and Mrs. C. L. McComber, Frank Janes, and Fred Bastady sang. The funeral parlors were filled, and many beautiful floral pieces filled the front of the room. Members of the county motorcycle squad were pallbearers, and the motorcycle officers formed an escort which headed the funeral cortege on the way to the Loma Vista cemetery, where the Buena Park Masons were in charge. Three airplanes circles overhead during the services, dropping flowers upon the grave. Mr. Jaynes was the son of Mr. and Mrs. I. D. Jaynes, postmaster of Buena Park. He was born in Los Angeles and moved with his parents, to Buena Park when he was 4 years old, where he spent his boyhood. He was married about eight years ago to Miss Bessie Moon of this place, and moved to Santa Ana, where in 1921 he became a member of the motorcycle force. He went to the hospital in November for an operation; and wto weeks ago underwent a second operation, from which he never recovered.

Besides the widow and parents, he left to mourn his loss four brothers, George, Kenneth, Clarence, and Lawrence, all of Buena Park, and a sister, Mrs. Vernon Ament, of Los Angeles.

Prospects Good For Honey Crop
Recent light rainfall and warmer weather have improved prospects for the season in some areas, as vegetation was beginning to suffer from lack of moisture and drying winds; in other sections plants have been thrifty. Sage is beginning to bud with evidence of a heavy bloom in favorable locations, according to word from the beekeepers' department of the farm bureau. Some nectar is being carried in from ground vegetation, such as alfalfa and other early plants. Wild alfalfa is blooming in some sections, as is mustard.
The orange trees are beginning to put out buds, indicating that a heavy bloom will be on about April 5. They are considerably earlier this year than usual, because of the open winter. Bees are in average good condition and are brooding heavily in most instances. A few swarms have issued from exceptionally strong hives. Drones are hatching out as evidence of heavy swarming. In some sections brood chambers are reported full of eucalyptus honey and colonies are short on bees and brood.
Thousands of poultry farmers lose large sums of money simply because they do not hatch their pullets early enough to begin laying in time for the high prices during the fall and early winter months. Eggs are highest in price from August to January. In order to take advantage of these high prices, pullets should be hatched about six months prior to the middle of October in the case of Leghorns, and about seven months prior in the case of the heavier breeds.
A New York scientist leaves for the Bahamas to find out for himself whether or not the shark will bite a human being. If he follows our advice he will take it for granted.
