COUNTY CULLINGS A final payment of $62,000 has been made in the first valencia pool at Orange. The next meeting of the county firemen's association will be held in Laguna about August 20th. A canvass of real estate men of the Orange county coast is being made to determine if it is feasible to organize a real estate board uniting the realtors whose interests center in the development of the "Gold Coast." Painfully but not seriously injured, Mrs. F. W. Morrow of Villa Park, and her eight-year-old son, William, are recovering from injuries suffered when their automobile was wrecked by a Motor Transit stage near Corona del Mar. Lions from all over the county are expected to respond to the invitation of the Laguna Beach club for the dinner meeting to be held at Dana Point at the invitation of A. M. Burlander. The date is August 27th. The Orange Coast association will meet at Seal Beach Thursday, August Garden Grove Newsar cnfwy shrdlm At a directors' meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of Garden Grove held Monday, it was decided to lease the large room at the rear of the new Price block for use of the chamber of commerce. The secretary's office will be moved to the new location in a day or two and work will be started immediately to gather and install a display of local products. Harvey Fenwick of Los Alamitos was badly injured when his car ran into the railing over Coyote creek, south of Astoria. He had one leg broken, a fractured arm and was injured internally. The car was completely demolished. Two other cars were wrecked, and one badly injured when one of the cars stopped on the bridge to view the wreck and there was a tail-end collision. San Juan Capistrano is trying to get the road across the mountains to Elsinore completed. Huntington Beach is trying to work out a plan to keep a section of the city Proper Time To Use Oil in Tree Sprays County Commissioner Brock Gives Some Pertinent Figures On Subject The latter part of July, August and the forepart of September, is the safest time of the year during which to apply oil sprays to oranges. The months of October, November and December are dangerous months in which to apply heavy oils to oranges with November seemingly the most critical period, the latter point being quite evident in the work carried on by Mr. C. P. Wilson manager of the research department of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, with fruit obtained from the spray demonstration plot at the Orange county farm. Oil sprays applies during the month of February caused a heavy drop of mature fruit; in general this was the result of too high a dosage of heavy-medium oil. However, eve no light oil at this period in the development of the fruit may cause a drop of mature oranges, and necessitate early picking. It is our suggestion that growers contemplating the use of an oil spray should be warned against using any but the more highly refined oils, because the higher refined oils are less likely to cause defoliation of the tree or burning of the fruit. The most reliable oil sprays seem to range between 90 and 100% unsulphonated residue, and it would seem that it is unwise for a grower to use an oil spray in which the unsulphonated residue is below 85 per cent. One oil which caused a great deal of defoliation and resulting dead wood had an unsulphonated residue test of 76.4 per cent. In other words, this oil was not highly refined, and the impurities were damaging to the tree. More complete information regarding the chemistry involved in oils can be obtained by reading the brief of Mr. E. R. de Ong's paper elsewhere in this issue. There are numerous factors which prevent anyone from being able to look Harvey Fenwick of Los Alamitos was badly injured when his car ran into the railing over Coyote creek, south of Artesia. He had one leg broken, a fractured arm and was injured internally. The car was completely demolished. Two other cars were wrecked, and one badly injured when one of the cars stopped on the bridge to view the wreck and there was a tail-end collision. San Juan Capistrano is trying to get the road across the mountains to Elsinore completed. Huntington Beach is trying to work out a plan to keep a section of the city free from oil development, so that homes may be built without the danger of the neighborhood being ruined. The improvement of the old plunge in West Newport by converting it into a marine garden, is being urged by residents of that section. A petition asking for the improvement has been circulated. Failing in his efforts to induce the Orange city council to open Center street northward from Sycamore avenue to Valencia street, which latter thoroughfare has been closed. W. H. Peterkin' Valencia street rancher, has filed a petition in superior court for a writ of mandate to force the council to act. The small home of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Shirley in Garden Grove was completely destroyed by fire Friday morning. The furniture and personal effects of the family, with the exception of the clothing being worn at the time, were burned. The blaze started when hot grease from a frying pan flared up igniting the building. A barbecue is to be held at San Juan Capistrano in honor of the supervisors of Riverside and Orange counties Wednesday, August 8. The various committees working on the event are completing their programs in a hurry, so that the barbecue will come off smoothly and with no friction. The place for the occasion has been set in the patio of the Mission grounds and underneath the new addition. 1932 Promises Greatest Olympic Games California not only will secure all of the world Olympic games of 1932, but will have as visitors during that year as much of the world's population as can get here, according to a message cabled from Amsterdam by William May Garland and received by Herbert Fleishhacker of San Francisco, Fred W. Klesel of Sacramento, Frank J. Bolcher Jr., of San Diego, and other directors of the California Tenth Olympiad Association. Garland, president of the association, has been in Amsterdam for the last two weeks and has held conferences with officials of the International Olympic committee and with representatives of the forty-six nations competing there, regarding the games to be held in California in 1932. These representatives, Garland stated, number nearly 12,000, including contestants, trainers and of-unsulphonated residue, and it would seem that it is unwise for a grower to use an oil spray in which the unsulphonated residue is below 85 per cent. One oil which caused a great deal of defoliation and resulting dead wood had an unsulphonated residue test of 76.4 per cent. In other words, this oil was not highly refined, and the impurities were damaging to the tree. More complete information regarding the chemistry involved in oils can be obtained by reading the brief of Mr. E. R. de Ong's paper elsewhere in this issue. There are numerous factors which prevent anyone from being able to look at an analysis of an oil and tell whether it will be a successful scalicide and non-injurious to the trees. In addition to the properties discussed by Mr. de Ong, there have been other features mentioned by chemists which provide more complications in this field. For instance does the oil have an asphaltic or paraffin base? An asphatic base oil with the same specifications as regards viscosity, unsulphonated residue, etc., as an oil with a paraffin base would not be the same. One would be more volatile than the other, and there would be a different result upon the scale and the tree. Again a wide or narrow cut of oil is sometimes mentioned. In other words, does the volatility of the oil vary over a wide or narrow temperature range and what percentage volatilizes at a given temperature? Volatility and the chemical activity of an oil seem to be the most important characteristics in regard to its use as a spray, and as yet there is no satisfactory test to be applied, or indicator by which the grower may know which will be a satisfactory product and which will not. However, viscosity is a rough indicator of volatility, and our present information leads us to believe that light and medium oils are less harmful on orange trees than heavy oils. The best that a grower can do is to buy a proven product from a reliable company. In addition to the facts already mentioned, there is one point which cannot be too strongly stressed, if a grower intends to use an oil spray it must be properly timed and thoroughly applied. Undoubtedly much of the variation in results with the better oils is due to poor applions. Growers as well as commercial operators should give close attention to this part of the work. ALL ORAN IS TALKED GUARANTEE Garland, president of the association, has been in Amsterdam for the last two weeks and has held conferences with officials of the International Olympic committee and with representatives of the forty-six nations competing there, regarding the games to be held in California in 1932. These representatives, Garland stated, number nearly 12,000, including contestants, trainers and officials. Adding the many other thousands of spectators and tourists, Holland is reaping a rich harvest of revenue for the money the nation appropriated to stage the games. "California will reap a vastly greater harvest," Garland said in his message, "if the people ratify the legislature's authorization of $1,000,000 fund at the November elections, for the visitors to California in 1932 will be many times those now in Holland." Besides obtaining pointers to assist in staging the 1932 Olympiad in California, Garland has spread information regarding this state's elaborate plans for that year. Great interest has been shown. Garland reported, 'in the proposed revival at the California Olympiad of the competitions in the arts that were an important feature of the ancient Greek games. It is evident, he said, that this project, added to the program of sports and athletics, will result in an unparalleled number of persons coming to California throughout 1932 from all parts of the world. He estimated the probable number as running into the many hundreds of thousands. CUT THIS OUT Our used tractor values may save you hundreds of dollars.

Kate Rea, treasurer of the Anaheim Red Cross chapter, was made public. Miss Rea's report reveals that, while a total of $808.95 has been expended by the chapter during the past seven months, receipts during this period total $223.22, leaving a balance of cash on hand of $114.27. In addition the chapter has loaned out, on a note, $1,400 making its total assets, $1,514.27. Miss Rea reports. The funds on hand are divided as follows: General fund, $79.79; home service, $24.83; and Junior Red Cross, $19.05. Details of the receipts during the period is as follows: Balance in the three funds December 31, 1927, $857.56; membership, $1; gift, $13.65; sale of materials, $3.00, and interest on note, $48. Total, $823.22. Woman Attacked By Unknown Man Seized by a strange man as she was putting her machine in her garage early Friday night. Mrs. Mary Peralta, La Jolla road near Placentia, was dragged from the garage to the street, she reported to the sherriff's office Saturday. Mrs. Peralta screamed and the man knocked her down and then disappeared in the darkness, she reported. Officers are trying to find clues which would lead to the arrest of the stranger who may have been a thief, surprised when the garage was suddenly opened by Mrs. Peralta, it was said. No attempt was made to rob the woman it was said. Mrs. Peralta's husband is serving a term in San Quentin prison for robbery and officers are investigating this angle of the case in connection with the assault. Poultry Cost of Large Sum Spent On Roads Last Year Orange County Contributes $809,000 to State System While the state of California is making rapid strides toward the completion of her 10-year, $120,000,000 paved highway program, Orange and other counties of the state are by no means neglecting their part. At the rate of $25,000,000 a year these counties are co-operating in the general highway plan by which the state expects to develop, in the next decade, the greatest system of paved roadways in the Union. Last year, according to the latest compilations of the state controller, Orange county spent a grand total of $809,508.97 for construction and maintenance of bridges and highways within her own borders, in addition to the amount appropriated by the state highway commission. From "the baby county" of Alpine, which expanded a total of $3,372.60, to Los Angeles, where the highway bill reached a new high mark of $4,402,-002.33, every county in the state played an active part in the movement to make every section accessible to motor travel. San Francisco spent $3,547,776.38, the report disclosed, while Alameda county stood third with $2,919,141.99. Scores of dilapidated wooden bridges were torn down by the various counties during the year, and replaced with either new concrete structures or more substantial wooden spans. The total amount spent by counties on bridge work was $2,161,303.39. At the present time the state of California ha san unimproved mileage of 2369, according to the state highway commission. Improved roads, including those in various stages of development, total more than 4220 miles. During the present two-year period, ending July 1, 1930, the state expects to add 20 miles of new paved highway. Studying Cost of Dairy Production Interest in the poultry, citrus and bean cost of production studies carried on by the Agricultural Extension Service induced the dairymen to request that a like study be made for their industry. Such a study has begun and upon its conclusion data will be available to each of those in the study as to their own costs, segregated by items together with income, likewise segregated as to item. In addition those in the study will have itemized accounts of other dairies with their identity lost, thus affording them an opportunity of comparison. The value of such a study in the comparison of items of income and expense to determine wherein methods of management might improve the return. Since this study has just begun, others interested may enter by signifying their desire to do so by application at the farm advisor's office. EXPANDING BUSINESS Plans for the expenditure of $130,-000,000 during the next five years by the Southern California Edison Company, as announced by President R. H. Ballard, have been analyzed by Kenneth Hayes, financial editor of the Los Angeles Examiner, who points out that $68,000,000 of this amount will be for payroll with immediate direct benefit to all territory served by the Edison Company. Before the first September the Edison Company's fifth plant on the Big Creek-San Joaquin river project will be ready for service adding 107,000 horsepower to the company's generating capacity and bringing the total up to 1,-048,100 horsepower. Of this total, 572,-000 horsepower is from water power plants and 475,-400 horsepower from steam plants. With an abundance of power at hand, Edison activities for the future will be concentrated on the sale of electrical equipment for home, factory and farm, in co-operation with local electrical dealers. It is estimated that 291,000 Poultry Cost of Production Data In co-operation with fourteen poultry men of Orange county, the Agricultural Extension Service obtained and compiled data covering a period of one year on the income and expense in carrying on a poultry enterprise. There were over 16,000 birds in the completed study, and approximately 20,000 birds in the study conducted this year. The pamphlet published shows considerable detail the average capital investment, source of income per hen, expense per hen, cost of production per hen and the cost of production per dozen of eggs. The beginner or the old poultryman will find much of value and interest in this publication, as it indicates to one what the investment is and the probable return. To the other it affords an opportunity of comparison not otherwise obtainable. The value of such a study is in the comparison of methods of management and the return obtained from such practices. Copies of this pamphlet may be obtained by application at the farm advisor's office.

It is estimated that 291,000 horsepower of new business from these sources will be added to the lines during the current year. Hayes' analysis also indicates that the construction of Boulder Dam, under proper legislation, will have the effect of stimulating the business of the Edison Company and other power distributing agencies. He quotes President Ballard as saying that the dam should be built b y the federal government, but power should be developed under the present Federal Water Power Act, by those agencies who are to distribute it and support sent you to London.

Nothing was said of the pie line. that much of the present opposition to Boulder Dam would be eliminated if that act were followed. On this point President Ballard also said: "Under the most favorable conditions, Boulder Canyon power cannot be expected to be available to this territory for a period of less than fifteen years, and while this prospective development is of a capacity about equal to the present total power demand in Southern California, the adoption and continuance through that period of a development program for the whole territory, such as that adopted for our company, will result in the use at the end of that period of five times as much power as may be developed from the Boulder Dam project. "Most of the power plants constructed during this fifteen-year period will be steam generating plants, the efficiencies of which are constantly increasing, and it is quite probable that the actual cost of this steam generated power will be no more than the cost of Boulder power with its several hundred miles of long distance transmission lines. The market for Boulder power will, therefore, be GREAT EXPOSITION The Pacific Southwest Exposition now being held in Long Beach offers many brilliant attractions in a romantic setting on the harbor front. In this exposition is depicted the swift and wonderful progress of a great realm—that of the old Spanish southwest in their relation to the development and progress of Latin America, the South Seas and that great Orient, whose borders the tide of western migration has now reached. The situation of the exposition grounds, surrounded as it is, upon three sides by the waters of lagoons and deep channels, affords the greatest opportunity for enjoyment of water sports. An event of more than national importance will be the International Rudder Trophy meet. The fastest speed boats of the 151 hydroplane class in America, as well as entries from foreign nations will compete for this trophy. The Southern California Yachting Association regatta will bring out many of the speediest yachts' of the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Other water aquplanes will include outboard motor races, canoe tilting and aquaplane exhibitions. By night the exposition presents a scene of unrivalled splendour—a sixty-acre city of lights, all reflecting their brilliance in the surrounding waters. Many far away lands have sent their products to be placed side by side with the latest products of Europe and A merica. The colorful, exotic products of the workers and artisans of Asia and the South Seas are in sharp contrast with the latest devices of machinery, and all tends to cement a deeper friendship between all nations of the Pacific area and bring about a strengthening of the ties of commerce.

NOTICE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION Suppose your firm lent you on business tomorrow to London, New York or Paris Most of the power plants constructed during this fifteen-year period will be steam generating plants, the efficiencies of which are constantly increasing, and it is quite probable that the actual cost of this steam generated power will be no more than the cost of Boulder power with its several hundred miles of long distance transmission lines. The market for Boulder power will, therefore, be measured by the amount of demand created through connection of new business for several years after the Boulder project is placed in operation. There is, therefore, no reason why the introduction of Colorado river power into this territory under proper legislation should have other than a stimulating effect upon the business of our company and other power distributing agencies, particularly as the building of the project will unquestionably attract to the whole territory more population and more uses for power."
