Generous Gift To S.C. University
George I. Cochran Contributes $100,000 to Semi-Centennial Fund
A gift of $100,000 from George I. Cochran, president of the board of trustees of the University of Southern California, to the University's Semi-Centennial Fund, was announced by the commission in charge of this fund. Mr. Cochran is president of the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance company, and a director in many of the largest and most successful California corporations.
In making the gift Mr. Cochran authorized a statement in which he declared that "everything points to an early realization of our long-felt hope that Los Angeles and its environs will come to be one of the great educational and cultural centers of the world." In this development, he said, the University of Southern California would play a dominant part.
Mr. Cochran has been a member of the board of trustees of the University for more than 35 years, and for many years he was its treasurer and later the president of the board. Mr. Cochran's father before him was closely identified with the institution, being for a number of years its dean and for a period its acting president.
In the course of his long trusteeship of the University Mr. Cochran stated that he had seen the university grow from a few hundred students to more than 15,000, and its colleges increase from one to seventeen. In these years, he stated, the faculty has increased not merely in numbers but in prestige, and the standards of scholarship have progressively advanced.
"However," he added, "the resources of the university have not kept pace with its numerical growth. New buildings, increased endowment and better facilities for research and study are needed. The university is seeking $10,000,000 for these purposes by 1930. It is my deep conviction that the wealth of the community could be invested in no wiser fashion than in this university."
Claims All America Making Modern Auto
The whole country is engaged in the manufacture of the modern automobile, declares Frederick C. Russell in an article, "The Birth of a Car," contributed to the November issue of Touring Topics. The author maintains that to fully understand the processes through which an automobile goes during its creation they must be studied in all their phases. The article is the story of how new cars are turned out at the rate of 20 a minute and how widespread is the influence of the industry.
From its first conception in the mind of the designing engineer, he says, to the making of the iron and steel parts at the foundries, the production of its various integral parts at the mines, the mills and the manufactories, and its completion at the assembly plant, the motor car affects an infinite number of people in the United States. Thousands are directly employed in this, America's foremost industry, and indirectly the entire nation is greatly concerned, the author maintains.
Not only is the economic color of the country determined largely by the rise and fall of automobile production, but also the car owners themselves play an exceedingly important role in creating the modern car. Mr. Russell states that while the minor complaint about an automobile at a service station is thought to be an entirely personal matter and utterly inconsequential, in reality it most likely travels far and has its effect upon the new cars. A complaint about the rear hub cap possibly is made by several motorists. Finally it reaches the service executive of the factory. Then the sales manager and perhaps the president. This then results in the changing of the part to meet the demand of car users.

A large part of the annual loss to the grain crop due to insect injuries can be avoided by watchfulness and vigorous action on the part of grain growers. Outbreaks of insect posts often come within limited areas. When this is case, it's often possible to stamp them out before any great damage has been done. But sometimes the Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Central Texas.

Best Method For Fighting the Gopher
Following the recent rains, gopher control is again commanding the attention of farmers, according to a bulletin issued by the Orange county horticultural department, under the supervision of A. A. Brock, commissioner.
Pointing out that the use of poison baits is the most practical method for gopher control on a large measure, the bulletin advises that sweet potatoes, carrots and parsnips are among the most tempting baits, with raisins, prunes and apples also being satisfactory.
In suggesting that root vegetables should be cut into large pieces at least an inch and a half long, and half an inch thick, the writer says that smaller pieces of baits are not satisfactory, since the gopher is likely to carry them to his storehouse.
"Large baits he is not able to carry, so will trim them with his teeth, and in this process some of the poison will be taken into the mouth, with fatal results," reads a paragraph in the bulletin.
Continuing discussion on control of this pest, the bulletin says:
"The poison generally recommended is powdered strychnine alkaloid to which has been added a small amount of saccharin, which is dusted lightly on the outside of the baits. If the baits are too dry for the poison to adhere they may be moistened very slightly. The poisoned baits are inexpensive, as one-eighth of an ounce of poison is sufficient for four quarts of cut baits."
"In order to be effective, the bait should be inserted in the feeding runways. The open holes and the runways leading to the mounds are usually laterals and are used chiefly for the purpose of disposing of the earth dug out of the main runways. These laterals are seldom visited again, and then only when a load of dirt is to be pushed out; hence baits placed in such holes are rarely discovered by the gopher. The main feeding runway will usually be found situated between two fresh mounds, and can be located with a probe. If the probe is used it is unnecessary to dig down into the runway, as noe of two baits can be inserted in the hole made by the probe. This hole should always be closed after inserting the bait, otherwise the gopher may attempt to close it from the inside and in doing so cover the bait with from one to seventeen. In these years, he stated, the faculty have increased not merely in numbers but in prestige, and the standards of scholarship have progressively advanced.
"However," he added, "the resources of the university have not kept pace with its numerical growth. New buildings, increased endowment and better facilities for research and study are needed. The university is seeking $10,-000,000 for these purposes by 1930. It is my deep conviction that the wealth of the community could be invested in no wiser fashion than in this university."

A large part of the annual loss to the grain crop due to insect injuries can be avoided by watchfulness and vigorous action on the part of grain growers. Outbreaks of insect pests often come within limited areas. When this is the case, it's often possible to stamp them out before any great damage has been done. But sometimes the outbreaks are of a general nature, covering wide areas. When that happens, community action is needed to conduct a campaign against the enemy. Serious grain crop pests, such as the Hessian fly, the chinch bug, and the white grubs, belong to the last class—that is, they attack on a large scale. There's no way to stop the march of these dangerous pests except through community action and large-scale campaigns.
One of the earliest and most popular of weather fallicies is that the moon has a great influence on the weather. Those who held to the theory that the moon makes the weather apparently forget that it sheds its beans on the rest of mother's earth as well as on their own small locality and that many kinds of weather may favor the earth, or even a fairly small section of it. On the same day or night. Modern man has rather lost faith in the moon as a reliable weather forecaster. Nevertheless many people believe that a "change" in the moon means a change in the weather, even to this day.
Pecan May Rival California Walnuts
The pecan nut comprises the Western Hemisphere's chief contribution to the list of subtropicals of commercial importance, and bide fair at some time in the future to become the leading nut in the United States, a fact which may be both surprising and of importance to California walnut growers. Some idea of the present status of the two industries may be gained from a comparison of the data bearing on acreage and maximum production within recent years.
The California walnut acreage as of 1927 is reported at approximately 130,-000 and the crop at 48,500 tons, by far the largest output in the history of the industry. The 1924ensus, which comprises the latest authoritative data available, shows the number of native pecan trees in the United States to be not less than 5,000,000, which may certainly be regarded as the very minimum; numerous well-grounded estimates place the number at from 15,000-000 to 40,000,000. The latest figures show a total of 4,500,000 budded or seedling trees under commercial culture.
There can be no doubt whatever but that there is an equivalent of 300,000 acres, if not more, of pecans in the United States. The 1926 crop, the largest image from one to seventeen. In these years, he stated, the resources of the university have not kept pace with its numerical growth. New buildings, increased endowment and vigorous action on the part of grain growers.

A two-thousand-pound propelled down the race of twenty-five miles hand that is governed by is not responsible by real malady in history. The monster engine of destruction travels about the highway at the few traffic accidents.
There is supposed to be "love-mad" driving, but I am slight down the highway whose arms and bodies give that it is difficult to be supposed to be in charge.
Traffic on our highways gested for incompetence surely interferes with thieves and hands. No full control of his me when his sweetheart is leaking his eyes from his collar button. It is not so let us regulate making back to the G when the paradise of the parlor, the quiet, shady nook removed from the Highways should be enjoyment of all, not a pleasure by the lovelorn.

Canada's public debt amounted to $13.68 in broke, and Canada pitches men and money. At this fiscal year in 1927 there was $264.64.

of the main runways. These laterals are seldom visited again, and then only when a load of dirt is to be pushed out; hence baits placed in such holes are rarely discovered by the gopher. The main feeding runway will usually be found situated between two fresh mounds, and can be located with a probe. If the probe is used it is unnecessary to dig down into the runway, as noe of two baits can be inserted in the hole made by the probe. This hole should always be closed after inserting the bait, otherwise the gopher may attempt to close it from the inside and in doing so cover the bait without discovering it. By the use of the probe a great many gophers can be poisoned in a short time.
"For gopher control on a smaller scale, and especially in orchards, the use of traps is sometimes preferred. As in the use of poison, it is important first to locate the main feeding runway. This may be done with the probe, as before. It will then be necessary to dig down to the runway, and to insert two draps, one each way from the opening."
BIRTH RATE IN BERLIN
There are some people still hounded by the bogey of Germany as the enemy of the world, preparing a come-back which will culminate in another wrt when circumstances are ripe. They will be relieved by the announcement of Dr. Burgdoerfer at the Eugenic Congress in Berlin that city's birth rate is the lowest among world capitals. Though 2,000,000 children were born in Germany in 1900, the present total has dropped to 1,160,000, although the population has increased by 7,000,000 in the intervening period. The birth rate in Berlin was 9.9 per 1000 population, whereas that of London was 17 and that of Paris 16.
The figures evidence a terrific economic pressure in Berlin.
Of course if an airship can carry passengers and freight from Europe it might also be able to carry dynamite and TNT in case of future war. Perhaps our good pacifists can laugh that off.
The natural range of the pecan is extensive, covering the greater part of the river bottom areas of the Mississippi Valley and its tributaries and including the States of Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Central and Eastern Texas. Its cultural range is much greater, including the region-extending roughly from the Atlantic Coast to the high plain area bordering the Rocky Mountains and from the Gulf of Mexico to the forty-third parallel. The great commercial producing section, however, consists of the states bordering the Gulf of Mexico from Florida to Texas and Oklahoma. It is noteworthy in this connection to observe that the states in which the heaviest plantings of grafted trees occur, Georgia, Florida and Alabama, are not situated in the region to which the pecan is indigenous. By far the greater part of the present production, however, consists of seedling nuts from the vast thickets of wild pecan trees in Texas and Oklahoma.
Arranged in the order of their relative importance with respect to numbers of seedling trees, the pecan-producing state are Texas (with about two-thirds the total), Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama. The principal states in the order of their production are: Texas, Georgia, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. The relative importance of the two highest producing states, as reflected in the 1926 crop, is shown in the comparison of 34,000,000 pounds for Texas as against 7,000,000 pounds for Georgia.
The pecan is also indigenous to large areas in Northern and Central Mexico, from which region and the annual imports of seedling nuts into the United States range from 1,000,000 to 4,000,000 pounds.

KGO Question Box For Agriculture
Co-operating with KGO, the Pacific Coast radio broadcasting station of the General Electric company, at Oakland, the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California will answer questions regarding farm problems. It was announced today by Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor of Orange county. Questions relating to agriculture, addressed to KGO, will be answered by the staff of the Agricultural Extension Service, and each Wednesday evening at 7:20 some of the answers, those of general interest, will be read over KGO.
This question box hour will be a part of the regular program by the General Electric company on Wednesday evenings between 7 and 7:30 p.m., but will not supplant the weekly talks given by members of the staff of the College of Agriculture, which have been a feature of this program since its inception. Not all the questions will be answered over the radio, since some of them will not be of general interest, other answers will be too long, and the volume of questions probably will be too large to care for in this way. But where the answer is not made over the air, it will be sent directly to the farmer asking for information.
It is the hope of Byron Mills of KGO and of Director B. H. Crocheron of the Agricultural Extension Service, that this question box will be of real service to agriculture in California. Prof. C. F. Elwood of the Agricultural Extension Division, will be in charge of the new service.

LOVERS’ LANES
No one would want to return to the Good Old Days of liquor traffic; no one would want to return to the Good Old Days of tallow candles when radios, flying machines and many of our modern conveniences were unknown, but there is one element of the Good Old Days that would be more conducive to happiness and to the safety of life and limb of humanity, and that is the art of love-making.
In the days when love-making was carried on in the parlors and down the lowers’ lanes, there was more happiness and no danger to the life and limb of those taking part. Now when the automobile is the cradle of the “petters” and every highway is a lovers’ lane there is continuous danger not only to the lovers but also to any who may have occasion to us the highways.
A two-thousand-pound automobile being propelled down the highway at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour by a hand that is governed by a mind that is not responsible by reason of the oldest malady in history, “lovetis.” is a monster engine of destruction. As one travels about the highways he murrels at the few traffic accidents.
There is supposed to be a law against "love-mad" driving, but it is no uncommon sight to see an auto being propelled down the highway by two people whose arms and bodies are so entangled that it is difficult to discern which is supposed to be in charge of the machine.
Traffic on our highways is too congested for incompetent driving and surely interferes with the free use of the arms and hands. No man can have full control of his mental faculties when his sweetheart is looking up into his eyes from the proximity of his collar button. It is not in the bootee.
So let us regulate the art of love-making back to the Good Old Days when the paradise of the lovers was the parlor, the quiet, shady walk and the nook removed from the lanes of traffic. The highways should be for the use and enjoyment of all, not a place made dangerous by the lovelorn.

To put it another way—the per capita interest was $1.68 in 1914, and in 1917 it is $13.62.
