Bailey Reports on Flood Control Work Gives Reasons Why Conservation Is Necessary to County Paul Bailey, engineer of the Orange County Flood Control District, has just submitted his seventh progress report to the Supervisors and Citizen's Advisory committee. It reads as follows: The objects and purposes of the Orange County Flood Control District as stated in the act creating it, are "to provide for the control of the flood and storm waters of said district, and the flood and storm waters of streams that have their source outside of said district but which streams and the flood waters thereof flow into said district, and to conserve such waters for beneficial and useful purposes by spreading, storing, retaining and causing to percolate into the soil." While the control of flood and storm waters is economically important to the intensive occupation of the Orange county plain, nevertheless, it is possible that growth might continue without this control. If this be attempted, paralysis of business and property damage of increasing extent as the county grows would have to be sustained with the occurrence of each of the larger floods and great inconvenience and lesser damage would have to be sustained during the more frequent floods. There would be some danger to life at the time of the greater floods, but this would not become very serious until the population becomes considerably larger than at present. Although such conditions might not be prohibitive to growth, they would be unfavorable either to intensive business and agricultural activity or to suburban residence, so, it is quite possible that the population and business activity constituting normal future growth, might seek other localities should favorable conditions not be maintained. Conditions in the past that have been adequate to foster the city of Santa Ana uses 1.4 acre feet per acre annually in its municipal service. Based on these figures, it is estimated that the present total annual use of water in Orange county approximates 230,000 acre feet per annum. The amount of water used is of course increasing each year as the business within the county expands. The annual amount that will ultimately be required to bring the total habitable area into its fullest use is estimated at about 1.75 acre feet per acre on the net area or in the neighborhood of 400,000 acre feet per annum. This is an increase of some 75 percent over the present use of water within the county. This large increase will not be needed at any one time in the future but represents the ultimate total as each decade brings on additional demands. While the plans of the Orange County Flood Control District for flood control and conservation when completed, cannot yield all of this additional water that will ultimately be needed, because there is not that much water in all the streams, yet they should make a substantial contribution toward it, enough to carry the county forward for quite a period of years.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE Aquatic Spectacle At Newport Beach Tournament of Lights to Be Staged Saturday Night, August 18th The most colorful and vivacious aquatic spectacle of the season on the Pacific Coast will be seen by thousands of people here Saturday night. August 18, when the eighth annual Tournament of Lights will be staged in Newport Bay. Officials of the Newport Harbor Chamber of Commerce and Commodore J. A. Beck, who will again manage the event, are putting the finishing touches on the arrangements. With seven classes of lighted craft competing for the valuable prizes offered and two miles of boats lining up for the "Big Parade" in the Bay, this year's tournament will overshadow all former ones. Commodore Beck predicts it is expected that between 30,000 and 40,000 people will witness the parade from various places around the eastern half of Newport Bay. More than 150 boats—yachts, power craft, rowboats, canoes, barges, and others—will be in line for the parade, which will begin shortly after 8 o'clock. In addition to "a million dancing lights" there will be several bands and orchestras in line and a big display of fireworks "on one in a million nights" on Newport Bay, according to G. C. Mackod, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. Five big barges, more than in any previous year, will be decorated for floats, one by the Newport Beach Boy Scouts and another by the Balboa Island Yacht club, a juvenile yachting organization. The parade will start at the Balboa Pavilion, circle the lower bay, wind back in front of Balboa is and circle Bay island and pass in review before the Newport Harbor Yacht club at the Lady Bee Clubhouse. Mayor Mark Larsen of Newport Beach will be chairman of the committee, other members being W. P. and 10, Sunday and Admission Day, which is Escondido's Grape Day. The bowl where the pageant is played is not far from Starvation Peak of the Battle of San Pasqual, and died a few years ago, after passing the century mark. Briefly, the play deals with the Mexican war, the Battle of San Pasqual between the lancers of Captain Pico's army and the small force of American dragoons under General Kearny's command. Woven into the plot is the love story of Pelicita, the Indian maiden, and Mr. Richard, a soldier of General Kearny's force.ghom Felicita found critically wounded and nursed back to health. The bowl where the pageant-play will be presented is just off the Inland Highway, south of Escondido, which is easy of access by automobile and where 100 acres of free parking space will be provided. $165 per month PROFIT Fontana poultrymen entered in university farm management contests with an average of 645 hogs each.

Out-Door Play Being Staged at Escondido "Felicita" Will Be Presented on September 2, 3, 9 and 10 Second annual performances of "Felicita," out-door pageant of the Battle of San Pasqual, will be held at Escondido September 2 and 3, and 9 and 10, according to official announcement just released. "The finest out-door play it has ever been my pleasure to witness," is the glowing tribute given to this pageant by John Steven McGroarty, producer of the famous Mission Play. The cast this year will be enlarged, the ensemble, personnel and features will be on a larger scale. Many native Indians and Mexicans, descendants of those who fought Kearny in the Battle of San Pasqual will be added. Many who saw last year's production believe "Felicita" is destined to become to San Diego county what the Mission Play is to Los Angeles. Escondido has decided to make it an annual affair and this year will give the pageant on two weekends, September 2 and 3, Sunday and Monday, which is Labor Day and a week later, September.

Why you should Join the Exchange Competition in production, in improving the quality of fruit, packing and handling is an excellent practice. The Exchange system encourages that. But competition in selling means less profit for all. Cooperation in selling, on the other hand, means an evenly distributed crop. It means the securing of the highest prevailing prices in the different markets of America and abroad. It means a decreased cost of production through cooperative buying in larger quantities.
