Hundreds Employed Handling Tomatoes Three Thousand Acres Ripening on Bastanchury Ranch With more than 500 men and women employed, packing and canning of tomatoes are in full swing in this district. Approximately 25 cars of green tomatoes and 5 cars of canned tomatoes were shipped from Fullerton during the past week and a possibility of greater shipments within the next two weeks is expected. With more than 3000 acres in tomatoes in the Bastanchury Ranch, hundreds of field workmen are picking and hauling the green and ripe tomatoes to the packing houses. All indications point to exceptionally high prices in the East this year for tomatoes. The severe frosts in eastern states have caused a jump in the price and local growers are enthusiastic over the season's prospects. Local growers have not experienced any setback of the development of the tomatoes this year. However, it was declared this morning, that the recent hot weather has damaged some acreage in the El Monte district, causing a blight. The Cutler-Lobingier plant has more than 500 acres contracted for the ripe tomatoes. Most of the acreage is rapidly ripening. Approximately 2000 acres of the Bastanchury Ranch tomatoes are ripening, while 1000 acres will come in about November 1. A continued dry season in this district will assist the tomato season to the extent that tomatoes can be picked until December 1. It was said. Damage to some extent has already resulted in Northern California from early rains. BRAINS NEEDED It is a habit of parents and of speakers at banquets to offer their children and their hearers a recipe for success, which consists entirely of hard labor. Unremitting toll, they say, is the only thing that will bring you to the goal of your ambitions. If a man is industrious enough, he will "get there" Perhaps Lincoln did that at the time of the Civil War, but Lincoln was President then, and Hoover, when he called upon America's women, was comparatively unknown. When the world crisis came in 1914 he realized that women, and housewives especially, play an all-important part in a great international combat. His signature—if you remember—came into our kitchens in 1917, and we looked up at it, as we substituted the rye muffins for the white bread, and said to it, in our hearts, "We're doing our share. You do yours!" The fact that Herbert Hoover did do his share, first for the noncombatants of Belgium, and then for every soldier, every man, woman and child in his own broad country, belongs to the history of the World War—the happiest part of it—and to the history of the world. It is a thing of which we American women may eternally be proud. That during this most hideous conflict of all time—when hate and cruelty and stupidity walked the world unchallenged; when the choking, yellow fumes of gas were blowing straight into the young, eager faces of thousands of boys; when the gray submarines were scuttling silently away from the plunging collapse of laden ships—there was a big, silent, efficient American man planted in Belgium, fighting disease, and starvation with American food, and fighting hate of the enemy with America's characteristic love for the suffering. Why, what nation in the world ever gave a thought to the noncombatants before? What natio never dared mix charity and goodness and common sense into a war? No note half so important to world welfare was ever struck by guns or sounded on bugles. The whole grim, bloody waste of life left no such impression on the history of the universe as did that quiet, tireless administration of what we all need first, no matter who wins or loses the wars—bread, and shelter, and a coat, and a friend. If ever the wars of the world are to be ended, they will be ended by confidence, not distrust; by generosity, not meanness. In one simple act of kindness between individuals there lies a devastating power that reduces disputes, fear, quarrels to the empty things they are. Every philosopher who ever lived has expressed it in a thousand ways—that hate is a dead BRAINS NEEDED It is a habit of parents and of speakers at banquets to offer their children and their hearers a recipe for success which consists entirely of hard labor. Unremitting toll, they say, is the only thing that will bring you to the goal of your ambitions. If a man is industrious enough, he will "get there" after a while. Put your nose to the grindstone from early morn till dewy eve, and you will be both rich and famous. And yet we see about us evidences to the contrary. Men spend all their waking hours at hard work, and finally they find rest in the grave, leaving as a sole legacy the memory of weariness and failure. Others achieve success without any inordinate amount of physical labor, at least. Far be it from us to condemn work—it is necessary, and upon it depends all progress and all prosperity; but hard work alone is not enough. Work is a form of power, and unless it is directed wisely, much of it is wasted. A man may work hard at pounding a log with the blunt end of an axe, but he produces no firewood. No field of enterprise is so filled with manual labor as agriculture, but the successful farmer is not the one who breaks his back with physical exertion all his life. Successful farmers are those who direct the work with their brains. They select labor-saving machinery with a nice judgment, just as the head of a factory does. They regard their bodies as machines, capable of wearing out or breaking down, just as tractors or separators do. They care for their machinery, their bodies included. No life is more independent than that of the farmer, in some ways. He does not have to answer the shriek of the factory siren, nor does he have to obey the foreman's command. He is his own boss, but he is in a deplorable state if he is not capable of directing the work of farm affairs. His mind must cover all his acres every morning, and he must know what is needed most in every department and be able to direct operations efficiently on each tract. There are farmers who do a minimum of manual labor who succeed, not because physical strength isn't needed, but because they are shrewd conservators of power, their own included. The mind that aims the power available wisely and with telling effect is the mind that succeeds. Applying labor is as important as the power itself. LOOKING TO HOOVER We appear to have reached as a people, one of those crises in our history when our need—our urgent, solitary need—is for a Man. We do not need more money, more power; we do not need more legislation and more constitutional amendments; we are menaced by no foes with impression on the history of the universe as did that quiet, tireless administration of what we all need first, no matter who wins or loses the wars—bread, and shelter, and a coat, and a friend. If ever the wars of the world are to be ended, they will be ended by confidence, not distrust; by generosity, not meanness. In one simple act of kindness between individuals there lies a devastating power that reduces dismutes, fear, quarrels to the empty things they are. Every philosopher who ever lived has expressed it in a thousand ways—that hate is a dead thing, subsisting upon material support, and that love lives. If this is true between individuals, how can it be not true between countries and continents? And, granting that it is internationally, universally true, to what man in public office today—or likely to be in public office in the near future—can we point as having proved by his own life and influence and policy the soundness of that theory as Herbert Hoover has proceed it? He is a man who feels the suffering of the world with a personal pain, and whose life, almost since he grew to full manhood, has been quite simply spent in efforts to lessen that suffering. The enemies of Herbert Hoover—and naturally he has them—have sometimes used that very fact to hurt him, or try to hurt him. Being absorbed in the work of the moment, whatever it is, he hears political and diplomatic buzz only as a disturbing noise, utterly unimportant, outside the realm of his interest. And the probability is that he notes the flamboyant headline sa few days later—these sternly disapproving headlines as to Hoover's refusing to answer. Hoover's disinclination to commit himself—quite as little. In the first place, he really was a poor boy, and he really did make his own money, as an engineer. He married the girl he loved, and he still loves her, and their sons; lately a grand-daughter and a grandson have been added to the circle, and I gather they also popular. This isn't news. Everyone knows this about Herbert Hoover. He went in 1914 to Belgium, and because America's women were right behind him, and believed in him, he not only made hundreds of important friends for his country but he saved thousands of lives. The bewildered, starving women amabilies over there were his charge. Dafter day they turned to him for food and shelter and friendship, and he never failed them—nor us. He managed the Food Relief in Belgium until America took charge of home supplies. And it was then that he walked into your kitchen and mine. We know he did this. We know that sugar and meat were saved for the men who needed them—gladly and generously saved—and that we all made a game of meatless and sugarrless and fatless days, because we were confident that we were really helping; that the man who was at our head was not deceiving us. In those days Hoover used to work LOOKING TO HOOVER We appear to have reached as a people, one of those crises in our history when our need—our urgent, solitary need—is for a Man. We do not need more money, more power; we do not need more legislation and more constitutional amendments; we are menaced by no foes without, threatened by no factions within. We feel no necessity for radical changes of policy, nor the installation of elaborate new machinery. We do not, like Germany, need friends; nor, like France, need bables. No! But we do need someone at the head of our affairs who is wise enough to appreciate the advantages and possibilities we have and strong enough to use them. We need a man at Washington who loves America and believes in her; who loves decency and goodness and the law, and believes in them, too. Happy the nation that, in such a moment, can find him. Or rather, happy the nation that does not have to try to find him now, at this last moment, when the air is thick with the smoke of political strife and filled with the clangor of party issues! Happy the nation before whom he stands, appraised, tested, adequate, the people's proven servant for the people's hour of need! For there is no superficial election-year excitement to color the opinion in which Herbert Hoover is held by the American people. He stands on firmer ground than that. No frenzy of campaign oratory is going to affect in the least our opinion of him, because we know him already. We have known him for years. We know his history, and we know what he thinks about some of the more vital questions that are before us just now. And, finally and fundamentally, we know that what he sets out to do he will do. Hoover is the only executive, as far as I know, who ever took the women of the United States into his confidence, and who, over his personal signature, enlisted their aid in a national crisis. He managed the Food Relief in Belgium until America took charge of home supplies. And it was then that he walked into your kitchen and mine. We know he did this. We know that sugar and meat were saved for the men who needed them—gladly and generously saved, economically and intelligently saved—and that we all made a game of meatless and sugurless and fatless days, because we were confident that we were really helping; that the man who was at our head was not deceiving us. In those days Hoover used to work sometimes for twelve hours at a stretch—this is no uncommon day for him now, by the way. When the heads of his different departments in the Food Administration used to report for duty at half past eight in the morning, he was not only there ahead of them, but he would have before him on his desk a hundred opened letters and telegrams, already yassimilated. Sometimes he would tell these men and women exactly what problem was heaviest on his mind. "I have got to have more wheat—we have got to fill up that ship. Where can we get it? You think it over, all of you, and come in here for a few minutes at three, and tell me what you've gotten." And in the end it was usually Herbert Hoover who had the inspiration. It was curious to see the lightning swiftness with which he would estimate any suggestion. He knew in sacks and pounds and ounces just what advantage a day of abstinence of any sort gave the nation. He knew just what he was asking when he asked for it. So much is readily conceded. But there are other matters, things that have happened since the Armistice, of which the voting women of America are perhaps not so well aware. For one thing, do they know that Hoover is a Dry—a law abider and enforcer by conviction as well as through loyalty? Unprecedented prosperity, unprecedented health, unprecedented national confidence have followed that amendment. Hundreds of thousands of little homes that weren't in the world ten years ago, depend upon it. Millions ANAHEIM GAZETTE Olympiad to Draw Many Thousands California to Be Flooded With Tourists in 1932 By CNPA Service Reports from Europe of an enormous influx of visitors that attended the world Olympic Games in Holland after indication of what may be expected in California in 1932, when the next world games are held here. Not only will hundreds of thousands of visitors be attracted here by the greatest of all athletic and sports competitions, but California will become as well the center of world interest in art and the humanities. For the Olympic Games are much more than contests between the leading amateur athletes and sportmen of every nation. They embrace also exhibitions and competitions in literature, in music, painting, sculpture and architecture. As the Olympic Games of ancient Greece accomplished more for the development of the fine arts than did all other influences combined, so the modern revivals of these Games are a great cultural inspiration wherever they are held. In California the visiting writers, poets, musicians and artists in whatever field will find much of the same environment and radiance of climate that made of the ancient dwellers of the nation by the Aegean Sea a light-hearted, intelligent and almost physically perfect people. Probably no country in modern times has so definitely influenced art of a high quality as has California. These facts, happily, our 1932 visitors will learn during their sojourn here, and will spread abroad on their return to their homes. This advertisement of California will be one of the big returns we shall receive from the Tenth Olympiad. Obtaining of the next world Games for this state has been a notable achievement. Not since the Olympics were revived at Athens in 1896, following a lapse of some 1700 years, have the Games before been held in this country. PURPLE SCALE CONTROL During the past few weeks purple scale which is found in a large number of orange groves and most of the citrus trees in city lot plantings has been undergoing a new hatch. This appearance of the young scale marks the time for fumigation or spraying to control this pest, for the young are more easily killed than the mature scale or eggs. Where heavy infestations exist, this office recommends a combination treatment, which is to spray the trees first with a light dosage of medium oil followed within a few days by fumigation of not less than 100% dosage. Lighter infestations may be held in check by a single fumigation at this time while the brood is uniformly immature. The heaviest dosage possible without excessive injury to the fruit should be used, preferably not less than 100%. In backyard plantings where the quality of fruit is not an important item or where it is impossible to cover the tree with a fumigation tent, careful spraying with not less than 2% medium oil will give fair control. A systematic inspection is being made at this time throughout the districts of the county to make sure that all trees infested with purple scale are treated before the winter season. Where owners have not already treated for this pest, they are urged to do so as early as possible while the insects are in a vulnerable condition. One way to get into politics and still remain quiet and unannoyed is to get yourself made a presidential elector. SAINT MICHAEL'S CHURCH E. Adele and Emily Rev. Charles E. Malmann, Rector.
