Reapportionment Is First on Ballot Rural Counties Expected to Vote Solidly For It Scoring a tactical victory in the first skirmish of its new campaign to block urban domination of the State Legislature and guarantee adequate representation for rural districts, the California farm bloc has won official assurance that the Boggs legislative reapportionment act will go on the November ballot as Proposition No. 1. By heading the list of issues, the farm redistricting act has the most coveted place on the long fall ballot—the position that catches the eye of the careless voter, it was declared by Ralph H. Taylor, Executive Secretary of the Agricultural Legislative committee, in making his announcement. Still another vantage point for the farm groups fighting to uphold the reapportionment act, asserted Taylor, is the ruling of State Election Statistician Charles Hagerty that the redistricting bill shall be stated in the affirmative on the ballot. Submission of the farm reapportionment plan in the affirmative permits its backers to vote "Yes" on the proposal, despite the fact that the measure comes up on a referendum instituted by its urba nopponents. This, said Taylor, will preclude the possibility of confusing and befuddling the voters on a proposition that they have already once approved, the act having been first submitted and endorsed at the election two years ago. "The Boggs act has once been approved by the people and further endorsed by the Legislature," declared the Executive Secretary of the Agricultural Legislative committee. "It is being re-submitted to the people because of the opposition of selfish urban interests that have held it up on referendum." "We are confident that the voters will reaffirm their decision of two years ago. If they are acquainted with the issue. And having the preferred ballot position, with the measure stated positively" Anaheim Juvenile Joins Movie Circle An Anaheim child, only four and a half years of age, has broken into the movies, and will soon be shown on the silver screen. He is Frankie Kleuwer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Kleuwer. He has shown such remarkable precocity and aptitude that his parents were persuaded by friends to present him to the powers at Hollywood for a try-out. After being given a test he was chosen over a long list of other applicants and was immediately adopted by the movie circle. The directors declare he is certain to become a star of magnitude in Juvenile parts. Last Thursday a contract was signed with the John Ince company, and Franklin's training began. He has already started on his first picture, and it will not be many months before he appears on the screen in hundreds of theatres. His contract runs for only a year, and at the end of that period, if he fulfills the expectation of the man who will train and direct him, he will command a salary that will make the average citizen's income look like thirty cents in comparison. Organic Fertilizer Is Recommended It has been found necessary by students of soil fertility and by those who have had experience through many years in producing citrus fruits, that it is necessary to keep the soil well supplied with organic matter if profitable production is to be realized, according to Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg. Many successful growers make an annual application of manure; others use bean straw and still others use alfalfa straw. Whatever is used, however quality of that material should be the first consideration. Organic matter is the substance of which the grower is in need, so that the higher the organic content, the better. The element nitrogen contained in the organic fertilizer is another consideration and the higher the nitrogen content, the more valuable is the manure or organic fertilizer applied. If barnyard or dairy manure is valuable for this publication before handle millions of daverry campaignaigns... "The Boggs act has once been approved by the people and further endorsed by the Legislature," declared the Executive Secretary of the Agricultural Legislative committee. "It is being re-submitted to the people because of the opposition of selfish urban interests that have held it up on referendum. "We are confident that the voters will reaffirm their decision of two years ago, if they are acquainted with the issue. And having the preferred ballot position, with the measure stated positively—in the affirmative—gives us an opportunity to place the matter squarely before the people. "This measure is absolutely fair and is imperative to the agricultural districts of California as a safeguard against domination by city legislators who are unsympathetic with the farmers' problems. "The act gives control of the Senate to the rural districts, providing that no county shall have more than one senator and that no senator shall represent more than three counties. But control of the Assembly will remain with the cities, as representation in the lower House will continue on a population basis. This plan assures a balance of power that we believe will work to the interest of the entire state, as well as agriculture. "A determined, united campaign, linking in all of the various farm organizations and rural groups, will be waged to hold the advantage that we won two years ago when the measure was first approved. An equally determined drive will probably be made against the measure by the big metropolitan centers, however, and the rural counties must stand solidly together to safeguard their rights." New Car Featured By Roominess Outstanding among the impressions created by the Silver Anniversary Bulk is this: that Bulk and Fisher style engineers have cut loose from all precedent in working out the line and color treatment for the new car which they introduce this month. Lack of anything, among motor cars of today, to which the new Bulk bodies can be compared, complicates the task of describing them adequately. They abound in deep, full curves, which produce an effect of sweeping grace, and at the same time, one of abundant roominess which is not belled by a glance at the interior. Where conventional body design prescribes an almost straight drop from roof to running board, Bulk has departed boldly from precedent. The body bulges or swells, just beneath the windows, and the curve thus produced is carried down to the apron in a graceful sweep. The fullness beneath the windows runs completely around the sides and rear of the body, and in combination with other curved line applications, imparts an effect of indescribable beauty. Big Water Pageant At Balboa Saturday The eighth annual Tournament of Lights, which is California's greatest illuminated water pageant, will be held on Balboa Bay Saturday evening. August 18th, and this year's display will be even more dazzling than last year. According to B. B. Harrington, local agent for the Motor Transit Stages, his company has made extensive preparations for handling the record crowd that is expected at the famous aquatic playground this week-end. Floating craft of every description, gaily decorated and lit with millions of lights of all colors will perform a Big Parade of dancing lights with numerous bands and orchestras and a brilliant display of fireworks around the bay while speedboats dash about in lively profusion. Agent Harrington advises that plenty of equipment will be on hand to accommodate all the Anaheim patrons desiring to take in this feature event of Southern California via the comfortable and convenient service of the Motor Transit Stages. Zinc Chloride For Pear Blight Control L. H. Day of the College of Agriculture, Davis, has been working for some time on the control of pear blight by means of a solution of zinc chloride. It is now possible to control pear blight by the zinc chloride method, without making it necessary in all cases to cut off portions of the tree. Most cases of pear blight are controlled by this means, according to Assistant Farm Advisor E. E. Eastman. Zinc Chloride For Pear Blight Control L. H. Day of the College of Agriculture, Davis, has been working for some time on the control of pear blight by means of a solution of zinc chloride. It is now possible to control pear blight by the zinc chloride method without making it necessary in all cases to cut off portions of the tree. Most cases of pear blight are controlled by this means, according to Assistant Farm Advisor E. E. Eastman. To be successful in the control of pear blight it is necessary that the grower have a thorough understanding of the disease and its relation to the general scheme of orchard management. Recommendations for its control, based on results of experiments by L. H. Day and on observations of results secured by successful California growers, are contained in Circular No. 20 of the California Agricultural Extension Service, entitled "Pear Blight Control in California." This circular is available on application to the Farm Advisor's office.

THINK IT OVER There are more than 4000 uses for wood—and new ones are being discovered every day. One billion wooden pencils are used in the United States every year. Railroads use 130 million new wooden ties a year. Five million trees a year go to maintain telegraph and telephone lines. Mining operations call for 260 million cubic feet of wood a year. The cooperage industry uses 250 million cubic feet of wood annually. It takes 36 acres of forest to produce one day's edition of a big city newspaper. Lumbering and plup manufacture make up the second largest industry in the United States in capital invested and labor employed. Six million people derive their living from industries using wood—one million men are employed in the lumber industry. We are cutting our remaining forests four times as fast as they are being renewed by new growth. There are 100 million acres of cut-over and burned forest land in the United States which should be growing trees. WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
