Bastanchurys Plant Big Tomato Crop
Three Thousand Acres on Their Ranch This Year
One of the largest acres in Southern California will be planted to tomatoes at once, according to an announcement made by Gaston Bastanchury, who declared that 3000 acres of the Bastanchury Ranch company will be set out to tomatoes this week.
The area to be planted will reach from near Norwalk on the west and to Olinda on the east and from La Habra hills on the north to the city of Fullerton on the south.
More than 40 acres of plants have been raised from seed as a result of the good weather, and enough plants have been raised to plant 5000 acres, according to officials.
Most of the tomatoes will be picked green for packing and shipment to markets in this state and in the East. It is expected that more than 1000 carloads may be picked from the large acreage.
More than 500 employees will be busy in the tomatoes alone during the season just starting. It was said. They will be occupied in planting, cultivating, picking, packing and shipping.
Twelve new water wells have been developed in the areas to be planted. The tomato land is considered the finest in the state.
A cannery is being installed to handle the ripened tomatoes left from the packing operations.

The old church is now completely wrecked, volunteer workmen having helped all week. The Ladies' Aid served dinner for the workmen Thursday and Saturday. The parsonage was moved to its new location Tuesday, so as soon as the trash is removed the work on the new church will begin.

California has expended more than $22,500,000 in the purchase of approximately 5000 homes and about 250 farms for veterans of the World War who joined the colors in this state, according to figures furnished State Adjutant James K. Fisk of the American Legion by George M. Stout, secretary of the state veterans welfare board. The purchases have all been made with funds secured through the two veterans' farm and home loan acts. The entire amount expended is being repaid to the taxpayers with interest by the war veterans. Stout makes the following interesting statement:
"Practically all of the demand has been for homes, indicating that the veterans are not going back to the soil in any great numbers. Of the farms purchased, more than half were in a few counties, namely, Fresno, Imperial, Madera, Riverside, San Joaquin, Stanislaus and Tulare. Each of these had more than ten farms purchased. Fresno leading with 31 and Imperial second with 26. In many counties there have been no requests for farm purchase aid and in most of them but one or two.
On the other hand the board is swamped with applications for home building aid and has many thousand now on file. In the number of homes purchased, Los Angeles county lead with 1633. Then in order are Alameda with 774; San Francisco with 490; Sacramento with 406. Those having more than one hundred homes are Fresno, San Diego, San Joaquin, Santa Clara.
The rest of the counties are in the following order: Butte 35, Colusa 3, Contra Costa 68, El Dorado 2, Glenn 2, Humboldt 8, Imperial 7, Kern 31, Kings 12, Lassen 1, Madera 6, Marin 48, Mendocino 4, Merced 15, Modoc 1, Monterey 6, Napa 2, Nevada 1, Orange 46, Placeur 10, San Bernardino 65, San Luis Obispo 6, San Mateo 96, Santa Barbara 26, Santa Cruz 9, Shaasta 3, Siskiyou 10, Solano 11, Sonoma 10, Stanislaus 28, Sutter 8, Tehama 2, Tulare 52, Ventura 31, Yolo 18, Yuba 8.

SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUSTS
Seventeen-year locusts have made their appearance in Connecticut, New Jersey, Southern New York, Eastern Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina. Naturalists assert that they do very little damage except to young orchards, and their lifetime, starting in June, generally ends in August.
Naturalists assert that the seven-year locust is not a locust at all, but a cicada. It has a sucking mouth rather than a biting mouth, and what damage it does is done by laying eggs in the twigs of trees and the stems of plants.
After its brief period in the sunlight it burrows into damp, swampy ground and comes to life again after seventeen years. In some localities the insect appears every thirteen years. It breeds rapidly and swarms often have the appearance of clouds in the sky.

A hog will find shade in hot weather if he can. However, he does not realize that a shady place often may be too hot and he is likely to stay there and die from overheating. Unless hog houses are high and have plenty of ventilation and air space, it is better to keep them closed in hot weather and force the hogs to seek shade elsewhere. If shade from trees is not available, a good artificial shade may be made by setting posts in the ground and building a cheap framework about four feet high, covering it with brush, hay, or straw. This shade is better than one made of boards or sheet iron. Dust accumulating under it can be settled by watering the covering; this will at the same time cool the air underneath.
Toads often begin their mealtime before sunset and continue through the greater part of the night, thus taking the place in the warfare against insects, of the ground-feeding insectivorous birds that stop eating after daytime is over. Since toads eat large numbers of insects that are injurious to crops, it can be said that they are of some economic value, particularly in destroying mille-peds, sowbugs, weevils, caterpillars, crickets, and leaf catters. Toads also render useful service on the farm by reducing the number of dult click beetles, as there is hardly a cultivated plant that is not attacked by these insect pests. Toads are not fussy about their menu and will eat indiscriminately any ground-frequenting insect.
A baited trap often may be used in summer to reduce the annual crop of newly fledged English sparrows. These young birds in their search for food will enter traps that usually are avoided by
the adult birds during periods of food abundance. Trapping is safer than shooting or poisoning and has the added advantage that harmless or beneficial native birds, if caught in the trap, can be freed. Canary seed, hemp seed, wheat, oats, and bread crumbs make excellent baits; or a live sparrow may be kept in the tray as a decoy. Trapping may begin at any time after the young sparrows are able to take care of themselves, which is usually by July 1. Although English sparrows are widely distributed as a species, one flock generally is attached to a single locality, a fact that makes their control easier.
Demand for Airplanes Here Exceeds Output
Despite the fact that there are more airplane factors in the United States than there are automobile factories, the demand for planes exceeds the supply and practically all the larger factories have orders that assure steady operation for many months to come. The condition that exists say department of commerce officials, is proof of the growing popularity of the airplane as a means of transportation.
The heavy demand for planes has resulted from three causes: First, the rapid expansion of the air mail service over the United States; second the development of commercial aerial passenger traffic; third, the purchase of planes by individuals for their own use.
Types of planes have been improving rapidly, not much in the matter of general contour, but decidedly as regards refinements, additional luxuries and greater speed. There are four general types of planes in popular use: The small plane with open cockpit with space for pilot and one or two passengers; the small cabin plane, accommodating three or four passengers and particularly adaptable for air mail transport companies that also carry passengers; the large multiple-motored cabin planes, carrying from eight to fourteen passengers and which are being ordered by passenger carrying companies; and the amphibian plane, which is not now in general use but for which the demand is steadily increasing. This latter type will be used on both land and water.
RURAL CREDITS COSTLY
South Dakota, which inaugurated itself a rural credits system, over which it danced merrily, has now reached the point where it must pay the fiddler. Commissioner McCulloch, director of the state tax department, has announced that an annual tax of one million dollars will have to be levied to pay the interest and take up the rural credits bonds issued.
The actual estimated deficiency of the rural credits system as of December 31, 1927, was $5,3000,000. It is therefore feared that this million-dollar additional tax will have to remain in force for four or five years to come. Rising land values, it is hoped, will help to speed up the process of cuttling down the deficit, but it is now agreed that the voting of this annual million-dollar tax is an absolute necessity.
A New Jersey woman wins nearly $100,000 in an alienation suit against a second wife. He must have been a husband worth having.
