Important Meet of Bureau Directors Things of Interest to Farmers Discussed at Session The important and interesting reports of the standing committees marked the meeting of the directors of the Orange County Farm Bureau on Thursday, April 5. The marketing committee had started a movement to organize the cabbage and cauliflower growers of Los Angeles and Orange counties for the purpose of marketing their crops through the federated fruit and vegetable growers. The insurance committee submitted a letter which brought the matter pertaining to that much discussed project up to date. The publicity committee reported the attempt to combine the advertising of several southern counties and the publication of a new paper for the Riverside County Farm Bureau. It is thought that by making this combination advertising will be increased, while the cost of printing will be decreased. The rural fire control committee had elected five directors to govern the new organization for the protection of our forests. The storm drainage committee had begun a study of the conditions in Orange county, looking toward the establishment of a policy. A sub-committee had been appointed to co-operate with the ranchers in forming a drainage district in the Villa Park section as a relief to the situation there. The county officials will help them to form this district, but, the committee feels that this is only one step of their various duties. The public utility department reported that the San Diego Gas and Electric Company had agreed to give a 10 percent reduction, affecting the Capistrano district. However, the hearings in this connection are being continued and a greater reduction is anticipated. The auditing committee showed that the farm bureau would have a balance of $271 after all current bills had been paid. They also reported that a sinking fund, of $1000 had been placed in the bank. Prizes to Be Awarded To Girls and Boys In planning for the annual Orange County Fair, the young folks are not overlooked. Already several prizes have been offered to stimulate the good work of the 4-H Agricultural clubs, whose members are composed entirely of boys and girls. The latest offers of prizes for 4-8 club exhibits are from two poultrymen—E. J. Campbell of Garden Grove and E. W. Koenig of Orange. Mr. Campbell is offering 50 baby chicks from his high producing stock of known ancestry as a prize for the best exhibit. Mr. Koenig is offering a $25 Leghorn cockerel with a 250-267 egg record ancestry as a prize for the best young pen, points to count. There are already nearly two hundred 4-H Agricultural Club projects being undertaken by the young folks of Orange county, and the prizes offered will be won by the particular members, who being worthy to receive them, will best appreciate and know how to care for them in the future. Inspect Watershed Of Santa Ana River On account of the great value of the limited water supply available from the Santa Ana river and its tributaries, the prevention of fire on our local watersheds assures an importance far in excess of the estimate generally put upon this brush cover. In order that first hand information may be obtained by interested parties, the county boards of forestry of San Bernardino and Riverside counties, in co-operation with the tri-counties forestation committee, have arranged for a trip of inspection of a part of the Santa Ana river watershed. The party will leave the court house, Riverside (Main street side), at 8:30 a.m. Thursday, April 19; leaving the court house, San Bernardino, at 9 o'clock; going from there by auto direct to the area burned over on the Santa Ana river during the summer of 1927, returning to the Arrowhead hotel, where luncheon will be served at 12:30 p.m. There will be a charge of $1 per plate... The public utility department reported that the San Diego Gas and Electric Company had agreed to give a 10 percent reduction, affecting the Capistrano district. However, the hearings in this connection are being continued and a greater reduction is anticipated. The auditing committee showed that the farm bureau would have a balance of $271 after all current bills had been paid. They also reported that a sinking fund of $1000 had been placed in the savings bank. Membership committee reported a total of 1166 members for 1928 to date. Of these 639 are association members and 477 had paid cash. Memberships are still being received and confidence was expressed that the quota of 1200 would be reached before the first half of the year was out. A tabulation of members shows that the organization is now only 175 below the membership of 1923, which is said to be the highest year. The poultry department brought in a report and asked the farm bureau to assist them in putting over a new egg marketing project in which the formation of a master organization of the various egg co-operatives is contemplated. On a review of the situation the farm bureau was glad to get behind this movement and will do whatever possible to promote this organization. The report of the delegates to the Associated Chambers of Commerce showed that H. H. Haley, a farmer of Placentia district, had been elected president of the association. A very kind feeling is existing between the two organizations. The extension service reported holding 47 meetings with an attendance of 1241, as well as progress on a number of important projects which are being carried on by that office. Interesting reports were received from the state director and secretary-manager on the regional meetings which were held at El Centro and Las Cruces, N. M. These reports established a contact between the local organization and the state and national departments and advised the directors of the movements that are taking place throughout the nation. Following the receipt of these reports, the directors took off their coats and got down to work. The first action was to authorize the division of the county into three regions for the purpose of holding educational meetings. The arrangements of these meetings are to be made by the president and secretary of the farm bureau, in cooperation with the president and secretary of the different centers. The state director was requested to get information on the matters surrounding the taxation of intangible property and bring the same back to the directors at their next meeting. The marketing committee was instructed to get information relative to the formation of a Declduous Fruit Growers' Association, an organization which purports to be an information clearing house on all perishable farm products for both dependents and county officials will help them to form this district, but the committee feels that this is only one step of their various duties.

A. Brock, horticultural commissioner, revealing that there are 12,443 acres devoted to this crop. In addition, 338 acres of trees have not yet come into bearing. Los Angeles county is the only one which surpasses this area in walnut acreage, Mr. Brock believes. Although seedlings are most numerous, accounting for 6521 acres, the Placentia shows the greatest popularity in the younger orchards. Of the 338 non-bearing acres, 276 are set to this variety. There are 1996 acres of budded walnuts; variety unknown; 4535 acres of Placentias; 231 of Eureka nuts, and 59 acres of miscellaneous varieties. The total number of trees is 311,233, both producing and non-bearing. Q—Can a postal card with code writing on it be sent through the mails? A—Yes.

Any player holding the joker may call it any card he pleases, so that it is possible to hold five of a kind, which is the best possible hand, and beats a royal flush. In cases of a tie the hand with natural cards wins, so that a pair of kings will beat a king and the joker, etc. Q—What is the seventy-fifth wedding anniversary? A—the diamond anniversary. Q—What is the proportion of males to each 100 females? A—There are 104 males to each 100 females. Q—What is the nationality and meaning of the name Stanley? A—It is English and means "stoney-meadow."

ANAHEIM GAZETTE Mapes Confesses His Name Assumed Former Auto Dealer Declares His Name Is Paul McBride Harry Mapes, former Anaheim automobile salesman, who absconded several months ago, and who was subsequently arrested in Portland, Ore., and returned here for trial on the charge of embezzlement, appeared in Judge Allen's court Thursday with a plea for probation. At his trial, recently, Mapes pleaded guilty and is now under sentence. During his hearing for probation, Mapes astonished the court by admitting that his name is not Mapes but Paul McBride. He paraded under the name of Mapes here, and married an Anaheim girl while living under the assumed name. Dividing amazement with the statement of an assumed name, was Mapes admission to the court that prior to his marriage to the Anaheim girl he was wed at Albany, Ore., in 1811, and has two children; also that he does not know whether he had been divorced from the other woman before his marriage at Anaheim. After hearing his confession, Judge Allen postponed the hearing until Friday of this week. Buena Park Notes (By MRS. J. P.

This tour has been arranged for the purpose of displaying the results of that county's activities in windbreak management, water conservation and forestry work, and has been so planned that it will show the inter-relationship of these activities. The tour will start from Fontana at 9:30 o'clock, and during the forenoon those in attendance will have the privilege of seeing the following: Five hundred miles of systematic windbreaks; different varieties of trees used in windbreaks; how best varieties are determined; effect of different spacing of trees and rows; effect and method of root pruning; effect and method of fertilization; benefits of windbreaks to groves and crops. It is planned to return to Fontana for a picnic lunch at 12, o'clock, and after short addresses by John Lundemo of Fontana, and Weedbridge Metcalf, extension forester, University of California, the party will leave for the experiment station and forestry nursery in Devil's canyon, where methods of tree propagation and reforestation will be demonstrated. The party will then visit the pumping plant of the San Bernardino Water Works and fire look-out station. At each of these stops interesting educational subjects will be discussed.

Oranges Sunkist Lemons Grapefruit WHAT THE EXCHANGE IS... The California Fruit Growers Exchange is a non-profit organization of 11,000 California citrus fruit growers, producing about 75% of the California citrus crop, operated by and for them on a co-operative basis. Its object is to develop the national and international market for California oranges, lemons and grapefruit, and to provide a marketing organization that will sell the fruit of its members most advantageously and at least expense. Receipts from sales, less only actual cost of operation, are returned to growers. Applications are received through all of the Exchange's 201 local packing associations, 23 District Exchanges or at the central office in Los Angeles.
