More Highways To Be Considered Plans for highway work in Orange county, estimated to cost approximately $135,000, a request for adding the Southern Sierra Power company in routing a high tension electric line across the county, and possible action on the tax rate for the coming year, were projects expected to be considered by the supervisors yesterday. Tuesday being given over to ballot casting throughout the county and state, the board did not meet. Natt Neff, highway superintendent, said that he hoped to present plans and specifications for the three road projects at the board's session. The largest item is the widening and resurfacing of South Main street from the city limits of Santa Ana to Newport road, linking it up with the concrete stretch on that thoroughfare which recently was widened and resurfaced. Neff stated that this work probably would cost $75,000 and that he hoped to have plans ready for submission to the supervisors. Another scheme calls for the widening and resurfacing of Santiago boulevard from Chapman avenue east to the bridge across the Santiago creek, at an estimated outlay of $50,000. The third one provides for new paying work on Santa Fe street, Placentia, between the city limits and Placentia avenue at a cost of $10,000. The San Bernardino county board of supervisors recently sent a request to the Orange county board, asking that they do whatever is possible toward aiding the Southern Sierra Power company in constructing a high tension line across Orange county from the northeast border to Seal Beach. The communication pointed out that the company serves San Bernardino county and that it also delivers power to many other sections of the state. The county officials here have withheld their approval of the proposed route until residents in the area affected are satisfied with the plans. Fruit Growers Told To Use Cover Crops Since organic matter is one of the requirements of the soil for the purpose of maintaining fertility and a good physical condition in the surface, the use of cover crops, especially winter cover crop, is advised by the Farm Advisor, in supplementing the application of organic fertilizers. In some districts there are conditions existing which might preclude the possibility of the efficient use of a winter cover crop for this purpose, but in most districts a winter cover crop can safely be grown, adding materially to the organic content of the soil. Many citrus growers have been afraid to plant a winter crop because of the frost hazard, and it is true, according to authorities on this subject, that the temperature in a cover crop orchard, other conditions being equal, will be slightly lower. However, if the cover crop is planted in a district where there is a frost hazard, orchard heaters should be installed and heating practiced. Under average conditions, cover cropping as a frost hazard is not one of material consequence. The most desirable plant to use as a winter cover crop under all Southern California conditions has not yet been found, but we have two or three at least which are very satisfactory; according to the Farm Advisor. Among these, purple vetch stands out as desirable, giving as good a tonnage as can be obtained from any other crop. Mellotus indica is the crop which has been used for many years and is a very satisfactory one. It has not always given the tonnage that the vetch has, but the first expense, that is the cost of the seed and the sowing, is less expensive than the vetch. Horse beans have been used, but not to the extent that the other two cover crops have been. A good cover crop will add about as much organic matter to the soil as three to five tons of good quality manure. Since these crops mentioned are leguminous, there may be considerable nitrogen taken from the air and added to the soil, and since nitrogen is worth it Won't Be Lost Now, Says Mr. September Is Opening U.

Thus far, only three Jesse Hilbs, Nate Barragr Thomas, appear reasonable getting their old jobs back eleven and a greatly shift probably go on the field for the whistle blows for the game at the Los Angeles tuesday 23. Just what Jones will be backfield is the main point at present. He has f returned for backfield joins, quarter; Lloyd Tha halfback; Russ Saunders and Harry Edelson, full loss of Morley Drury, the quarterback of 1927, and lott another fast quartz Jones to place his return differently this year.

The communication pointed out that the company serves San Bernardino county and that it also delivers power to many other sections of the state. The county officials here have withheld their approval of the proposed route until residents in the area affected are satisfied with the plans. A delegation from the northern end of the county went before the board several weeks ago and protested the present route, stating that it would damage property, particularly in part of the residential section of Fullerton. Final action on the tax rate was deferred at the last board session. Figures were submitted by County Auditor W. C. Jerome, showing that a reduction of 10 cents in the rate was believed to be possible. The board must fix the rate by the first business day in September. County Fair to Entertain Visitors Walnut Growers Who Attend Field Day Here to Be Guests At the County Fair All growers from neighboring counties who attend the Annual Southern California Walnut Growers' Field Day this year at Anaheim and Placentia on September 8 will receive free admission tickets to the Orange County Fair, according to H. A. Lake, president of the Orange County Fair. This is an innovation to be tried for the first time this year, for the purpose of inducing greater interest in the show from the outside. Arrangements are being made between the directors of the Fair and the Field Day Committee to distribute the tickets at the meeting to be held in the auditorium of the Annheim High school. The session will open at 9:30 a.m. and continue till noon. At 1:30 o'clock the growers will assemble at the school and go in caravan to the Sam Kraemer ranch at Placentia, where several dehydrators and cleaners will be on display. A. W. Christie, California Walnut Growers' association will explain the importance of better heat control in artificial dehydration of walnuts. W. B. Hooper, walnut specialist, with the Agricultural Extension Service, will explain the use and advantages of cleaning machines in relation to better harvesting methods. The second stop will be made at the M. L. Hall ranch near Placentia to note the effect of thinning old walnut trees to improve production and quality of nuts. At this stop, Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor of Orange county, will discuss the relation of irrigation practice to the quality of the nut crop. A deep trench will be dug to examine the root distribution of old trees and note the penetration of moisture. If Russ Saunders gets quarter, the job of inside open, and in that interruption spot Jones will probably that leaves the fullback bin Jim Snider, Bert Ritter or two other busky fresh candidates who can handle well with a little expert Schaub, who won a letter in 1926, will also try out back job and may prove man Jones wants there. The only backfield plan that will probably not see in the 1928 lineup is out which Lloyd Thomas has well during the past two Jones does not need to point. Among the linemen, the ter men will return: N center; Clark Galloway, Cecil Hoff and Frank Antle and Francis Tappan, Lo and Charley Boren, ends; powerful, rugged player at probability take his place center spot with little concern to guards, however, there is a scramble, especially for post of running guard down so admirably in Heiser; now a graduate. Among the foremost running guard will probate who has already played end on Jones' teams, fast, stocky type necessary that leads many power plays, but he has a lot of Helser and will be hit that point. John Porter ranien and several others have a good chance of launch at this position. C looks like the best early pect for the other guard. Hibbs will be one tack struggle, while Hoff and scramble for the other box and McCaslin, with Ralph cox giving them plenty o appear to be the best pect for the wing positions.

S. C. Men With football practice scheduled to start at the University of Southern California Saturday, September 15, talk of Trojan gridiron prospects and speculations on the men Coach Howard Jones will use on his 1928 team fill the air. Thus far, only three men, Captain Jesse Hilbs, Nate Barrager and Lloyd Thomas, appear reasonably certain of their old jobs back on the first eleven and a greatly shifted team will probably go on the field for S. C. when the whistle blows for the Utah Aggie game at the Los Angeles Coliseum September 29. Just what Jones will do with the beckfield is the main point for speculation at present. He has four lettermen returning for backfield jobs, Don Williams, quarter; Lloyd Thomas, outside halfback; Russ Saunders, inside half, and Harry Edelson, fullback, but the loss of Morley Drury, the all-American quarterback of 1927, and Howard Elliott, another fast quarter, will force Jones to place his returning lettermen differently this year. If Williams could bear the brunt of the Trojan attack as quarter throughout the biggest part of every game, the Trojan coach’s problem in the backfield would be easily solved, for the Orange county boy is one of the fastest and shiftiest ball packers in the game. But Williams hurls himself with such force into every play that he is frequently injured, and Jones must have a man of the Drury type, who can stand plenty of pounding for his regular quarter. If Russ Saunders gets this call at quarter, the job of inside half is left open, and in that interference running spot Jones will probably put Edelson. That leaves the fullback berth open, but Jim Snider, Bert Ritchey and one or two other busky freshman look like LOCAL BREVITIES Rev. and Mrs. C. E. Malmann have just returned from vacation spent mostly in Los Gatos, Cal., at the home of Mrs. Malmann’s sister, Mrs. James Powell. Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Riutceel and their son, Wallace, returned last week from a motor trip to the states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho. They were absent three weeks and report an enjoyable trip. Mrs. W. H. Schurman is in Glendale for the week as the guest of her sister, Mrs. A. H. Schurman of that city who recently spent a few days in Anaheim. Mail Carrier Baum is enjoying a two-weeks’ vacation in the San Bernardino mountains accompanied by his wife and family. During his absence his duties at the postoffice are being filled by Roy Pendleton. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Weisel and family returned last week from a two-months’ trip to the East. They went by way of Panama and spent some time in New York, Chicago and Milwaukee. In the latter city they visited relatives of Mrs. Weisel. They returned to California by motor bringing Miss Fannie Klein with them. Miss Klein expects to return home the latter part of the week. Howard Gates, who took a few weeks off from his vacation and went down into Mexico to try his hand catching Mexican fish, returned Monday night. He penetrated the southern republic for a distance of 700 miles, and failed to meet a single bandit. He is of the opinion that Mexico is becoming civilized. W. P. Quarton and W. H. Houts, who accompanied by their families, have been touring the North, are expected home today. Buena Park News Mrs. Retha Hagel, wife of Ernest Hagel, died Saturday morning at the County hospital. Mrs. Hagel is survived by her husband, a week-old daughter, her father and two sisters and two brothers. The funeral was Monday afternoon at the Seale Undertaking parlor. Mr. and Mrs. F. J. McKenzie and children returned Friday from a two-weeks’ visit to Phoenix, Arizona. E. E. Thurman and daughter, Mrs. L. T. Wilsey, made a four-day visit to Mr., Thurman’s brother in Elmshore, returning Monday. The new church structure was threatened by fire Saturday morning, when a tar pot boiled over and caught fire, spreading over the shavings and scraps of lumber. A palm tree added to the blaze so the fire department was called out and made quick work of putting out the blaze. Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Berkey, Mrs. M. S. Berkey, Mrs. J. B. Robison, Miss Hattie Stanley and Miss Betty Berkey were luncheon guests of Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Berckham and the Misses Mary and Marjorie Berckham at Eagle Rock Friday. Two new stores were opened Saturday, one is at Second and Grand Avenue. A “Cash and Carry” operated by W. B. Cannon, who has moved here from Santa Ana. The other is a fruit and vegetable market, a branch of the Lee Bros.’ store at Fulherton. This is in the S. G. T. building. Mrs. Jessie Gill, assisted by Mrs. F. B. Jones, chaperoned Mrs. Gill’s Sunday school class of girls, on an outing at Huntington Beach last week. The girls in the party were Ruth Bastaly, Wilda Green, Mildred Crope, Elizabeth Crummine, Esther Drinkard, Lloyd Allin, Maxine Hammer. C. H. Owens and L. J. Robison attended the County Firemer’s monthly meeting at Laguna. Parker Neville and family and Derna Williams and family from Millsap, Texas, arrived here Saturday night. Mr. Neville has bought the Richardson If Russ Saunders gets this call at quarter, the job of inside half is left open, and in that interference running spot Jones will probably put Edelson. That leaves the fullback berth open, but Jim Snider, Bert Ritchey and one or two other busky freshman look like candidates who can handle that post well with a little experience. Alvin Schaub, who won a letter as a guard in 1926, will also try out for the full-back job and may prove to be just the man Jones wants there. The only backfield place, therefore, that will probably not see a new face in the 1928 lineup is outside halfback, which Lloyd Thomas has held down so well during the past two years that Jones does not need to worry at that point. Among the linemen, the following letter men will return: Nate Barrager, center; Clark Galloway, guard; Hilbs, Cecil Hoff and Frank Anthony, tackles; and Francis Tappaan, Lowry McCaslin and Charley Boren, ends. Barrager is a powerful, rugged player and will in all probability take his place back in the center spot with little competition. As to guards, however, there will be quite a scramble, especially for the important post of running guard that was held down so admirably in 1927 by Bert Helser, now a graduate. Among the foremost candidates for running guard will probably be Boren, who has already played halftback and end on Jones' teams. Boren is the fast, stocky type necessary for the position that leads many of the Trojan power plays, but he has not the weight of Helser and will be handicapped at that point. John Porter, Vaughn Derenan and several other big boys also have a good chance of landing the first call at this position. Clark Galloway looks like the best early season prospect for the other guard position. Hibbs will be one tackle without a struggle, while Hoff and Anthony will scramble for the other berth. Tappaan and McCaslin, with Ralph "Dutch" Wilcox giving them plenty of competition, appear to be the best pre-season bets for the wing positions. NIGHT SUPPER FOR RATS A "sandwich" for rats can be made of 1 ounce of pordered red squill and 2 ounces of good butter, mixed and spread thin slices of about half a pound of bread. Cut each sandwich into six small pieces for the rat balts. Red squill is an effective poison for rats and has the added distinct advantage of being practically harmless to human beings and domestic animals. The powder has an acrid taste that is objectionable to most animals, but rats will eat it readily. Since red squill has no uniform toxic standard, it is important to purchase it from manufactures. Howard Gates, who took a few weeks off from his vacation and went down into Mexico to try his hand catching Mexican fish, returned Monday night. He penetrated the southern republic for a distance of 700 miles, and failed to meet a single bandit. He is of the opinion that Mexico is becoming civilized. W. P. Quarton and W. H. Houts, who accompanied by their families, have been touring the North, are expected home today. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dolan and family returned home last week after an enjoyable three-week outing at Balboa. Mrs. E. C. Kendrick and son, Richard, who have been visiting relatives in Los Angeles for the past week, returned home on Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Le Vecke and family are at home again after a vacation spent at Balboa. With Saturday, September 8, as the apparent date for the opening of football on the local high school gridiron, Coach George Righter is doubly busy with his park job and rounding up his youthful proteges. All new equipment and school-furnished shoes will greet the boys this year. From the magical land of Hawaii comes word of Miss Myrtle Winters and her most pleasantly made trip across the placid waters of the Pacific. Only on Sunday does Miss Winters advise, were the slight pitchings of the boat able to overcome her, and then only partly. From the breakfast menu of the S. S. Los Angeles, which Miss Winters sent, we are led to believe that dining forms one of the most pleasant pastimes on board ship. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew J. (Bill) Cook are again in Anaheim, where Mrs. Cook is taking over her duties in the Anaheim High school office. Mr. Cook will be greeted by about 55 ambitious prep-school pigskin wonders when he re-assumes coaching duties at Santa Ana Junior College in two weeks. Anaheim High school graduates of 1928 have chosen a wide variety of institutions in which to continue their education. A large number, mostly boys, are choosing Santa Anna, and others, mostly the young ladies, are making Fullerton their choice, while the rest are scattering to Business Colleges, U. S. C. and other schools. Only a few are not going to continue their schooling. Mrs. Robert V. Jensen has returned from a few days' stay in Calexico with her husband. She will remain here till about the middle of September, when she will move to the southern city. Her son, Robert, will move to Los Angeles, where he will attend school. KAFFEE KLATSCH A "sandwich" for rats can be made of 1 ounce of pordered red squill and 2 ounces of good butter, mixed and spread thin slices of about half a pound of bread. Cut each sandwich into six small pieces for the rat baits. Red squill is an effective poison for rats and has the added distinct advantage of being practically harmless to human beings and domestic animals. The powder has an acrid taste that is objectionable to most animals, but rats will eat it readily. Since red squill has no uniform toxic standard, it is important to purchase it from manufacturers who guarantee its toxicity. Red squill can also be used with cereals, ground meats, or fruits and vegetables as baits. It is important that a sufficient number of baits be distributed at one time to provide an ample supply for all the rats. Baits should be put around in the evening so they will be fresh when the rats are feeding; stale baits are unattractive to rodents; hence baits put out should be picked up and destroyed the following morning. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES "Christ Jesus" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon Sunday, August 26, in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon included the following Bible verses from Mark 16: "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature... And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 25), by Mary Baker Eddy: "Though demonstrating his control over sin and disease, the great Teacher, by no means relieved others from giving the requisite proofs of their own piety. He worked for their guidance, that they might demonstrate this power as he did and understand its divine Principle." DOMESTIC ART DEPARTMENT OF COUNTY FAIR Mrs. Kurt Epstein, county chairman of domestic art and needlework department of the coming Orange County Fair, urges that all persons interested have their exhibits entered as soon as possible. Hand work to be exhibited is being received at Falkenstein's Department store. All departments of domestic art, including embroidery, knitting, crochet, bedspreads, tatting, quilts, rugs, hooked rugs, bead work, blind art, felt work, French dolls, drawn work, silk lamps, wax work, polychrome parchment, cursive line, Dennison art, painted work, batik and China painting, will be received for exhibit at the Fair, and merchants of the county are offering many valuable prizes for the best workmanship displayed. Former state mineralogist, Lloyd L. Root, has joined the staff of C. C. J Pullian, Southern California mine and oil operator, with the title of general manager in charge of operations. C. C. Julian owns the Alcode mine in Nevada county, formerly belonging to the Root estate, and has started selling a 1500-foot shaft on the property. There is one nice thing about campaign by radio. The county chairman doesn't have to exaggerate the number of people who listened to the speech.
