Cuttle Submits His Annual Report Work of Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee During the Past Year. The twenty-second annual meeting of the members of the Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee was held January 10th at the Glenwood Mission Inn, at Riverside, at 10 o'clock a.m. Francis Cuttle was re-elected chairman, Geo. W. Sherwood re-elected recording secretary, C. J. Kettering re-elected corresponding secretary, and W. B. Clancy, treasurer. The members from San Bernardino county appointed to act during the next year are: J. J. Prendergast, chairman; Herbert H. Garstin, Glenn D. Smith, Geo. A. Atwood, Wm. Starke, M. M. Randall, W. F. Grow, Geo. S. Hinckley, C. E. Johnson, Howard Way, J. C. Jones, Dr. J. N. Baylis (alternate), P. B. Hasbrouck. Orange county: H. C. Head, chairman; John Dunstan, G. W. Sherwood, A. N. Saxton, W. W. Hoy, A. G. Miller, J. Mitchell, A. Pierotti, J. J. Dwyer, J. C. Tuffee, Wm. Schumacher, C. A. Palmer. Riverside county: E. P. Clarke, Francis Cuttle, R. M. Irving, E. O. Rickard, A. S. Holden, R. W. Vorle, chairman, Board of Supervisors, Frank F. Chase, E. L. Williamson, R. D. Skelley, Mayor of City of Riverside, and Joy G. Jameson. Francis Cuttle, chairman of the committee, submitted his annual report of the work and estimates. It reads as follows: To the Members Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee: Water Supply: Water supply and care of the watershed from which the supply comes continues to be the all-important question confronting the users of water from the Santa Ana river and its tributaries. The report of the state engineer, covering practically three years of investigation, has just been received in Southern California. The following significant statement will bring home to all who are studying the question the gravity of the situation. "The utilization of water today (on important matter, will reveal the best methods to follow. Meantime the preponderance of authority seems to be in favor of preventing fires and maintaining brush cover in its natural condition. The cost of so-called "light burning," as outlined by Mr. Snow, will make this treatment prohibitive, and certainly the demonstration of the effect of destroying watershed cover on the area near the mouth of Devil-Canyon would indicate that any large portion of area burned over would result in tremendous erosion and run-off at time of precipitation. Disastrous fires have occurred (in view of the state by Mr. Conkling, may be they were not disastrous) during past season. According to report of the Forest Service officials forty-five fires occurred during the past season on the San Bernardino National Forest, burning over an area of 40,000 acres inside and 37,490 acres outside the National Forest, at a cost of $1.98 per acre, or $153,430.20. Land for Reservoir Sites: During the early part of the year 1928 it became apparent that it might be necessary to use certain areas in the San Bernardino National Forest in connection with the comprehensive plan of flood control and conservation of water, being worked out by the state engineer. At the request of this committee an executive order was issued by the President of the United States withdrawing 7,264 acres of land from entry, pending the completion of the report. When and if it is found that all or part of these lands are needed, a permanent order can no doubt be secured, granting permit for the permanent use of these lands. Government and Local Funds: There has been made available by the Federal Government, for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1928, ending June 30, 1929, the sum of $20,000 for the construction of fire lanes trails, etc., on the San Bernardino National Forest, on condition that local interests contribute a like amount, and this committee has undertaken the task of raising the funds to meet the federal appropriation. The orange shippers, whose growers depend on this source for their water supply, have been requested to contribute $1.00 per carload of oranges shipped, to meet this government appropriation, and so far very satisfactory co-operation has been secured from the fruit shippers. Up to date 27 organizations and individual shippers have agreed to cooperate on the basis of $1.00 per car. As the number of cars to be shipped is important matter, will reveal the best methods to follow. Meantime the preponderance of authority seems to be in favor of preventing fires and maintaining brush cover in its natural condition.

To the Members Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee: Water Supply: Water supply and care of the watershed from which the supply comes continues to be the all-important question confronting the users of water from the Santa Ana river and its tributaries. The report of the state engineer, covering practically three years of investigation, has just been received in Southern California. The following significant statement will bring home to all who are studying the question the gravity of the situation. "The utilization of water today (on the Santa Ana river) with the present natural losses and waste is estimated to exceed by 22% the safe draft. Safe draft is defined as the dependable quantity which may be furnished continuously throughout the driest cycle of years. It implies a 100% draft in every year." "Conservation works can be constructed which would store the waste into the ocean and salvage natural losses to the extent of an estimated 100,000 acre feet. We these works constructed, the utilization of today would be practically at the limit of safe draft. Additional use on present lands, or use on new lands, would result in deficiencies in certain years, or a draft on ground water capital, not replacable." Under these circumstances it is apparent that everything that can possibly be done to conserve the water by natural or artificial means must be carefully considered. The last matter treated in the summary of the report, under the heading "Increasing Water Supply," by Harold Conkling, Chief of Division of Water Rights, is as follows: "On the average it is believed vegetation of the mountain region transpires about two eft in depth of water in the average year. If vegetation were reduced in average size so that it did not transpire so much, a part of the water now transpired would reach the valley. Controlled burning off of small parts of the mountain area each year would accomplish this reduction of average size of vegetation, would reduce the danger of major fires and might thus reduce the danger commonly associated with mountain fires, accelerated erosion, while being at the same time beneficial to the water supply. This matter is also worthy of further study." This statement is quite in variance with the attitude of the United States Forest Service officials with reference to so-called "light burning." Mr. S. B. Snow, U. S. District Forester, recently made the following comment on this matter of "light burning:" "Periodically, the forest protection policy of the U. S. Forest Service, which seeks (1) to prevent fires from starting, and (2) to suppress those that may start, is attacked by people who hold that the deliberate and repeated burning of forest lands offers the best method of protecting these lands from the devastation of forest fires . . . but they present no facts to prove the correctness of their theory. . . Periodic burning has reduced our forest capital more than 50% and has also turned millions hardline National Forest, on condition that local interests contribute a like amount, and this committee has undertaken the task of raising the funds to meet the federal appropriation. The orange shippers, whose growers depend on this source for their water supply, have been requested to contribute $1.00 per carload of oranges shipped, to meet this government appropriation, and so far very satisfactory co-operation has been secured from the fruit shippers. Up to date 27 organizations and individual shippers have agreed to cooperate on the basis of $1.00 per car. As the number of cars to be shipped is not yet determined it is impossible to state at this time just what amount of money this will provide. There are a few who have not yet been seen, and some who have not yet reached a decision, but it is apparent that shippers of fruit generally agree that this is a fair and satisfactory means of raising funds to meet the government appropriation for protecting water supplies of fruit growers. In fact, in only one instance has there been a refusal to cooperate. State Engineer's Report: The complete report of the state engineer was received early in January and the organization committee, composed of members from this committee and directors of the Water Conservation Association, has been diligently at work on a tentative plan to be submitted to the boards of supervisors of the three counties for their consideration at an early date. It has been unanimously agreed by the members of the special organization committee that the first objective to be reached will be to present to the present session of the legislature the matter of financial assistance for flood control on the Santa Ana river. As the period during which bills should be introduced will be quite brief, every effort is being made to work out some plan satisfactory to the boards of supervisors of the three counties, and then present it to the state legislature in the form of a bill. After action has been had by the legislature the question of organization for co-operation by people of the three counties can be taken up, but if this were attempted before presenting the matter to the legislature, it is quite evident that nothing could be done during the present session of the legislature; and as the Joint Legislative Water Investigating Committee, of which Senator Swing is an active member and with whom we are in close touch, will present a report to the legislature in near future, our needs and wishes will likely be included in that report. There is appearing in the public press of the three counties statements of the amount of money that will be asked for how it is to be raised, the assessment that will fall to different benefited parties, and many other conclusions that seem to be premature at this time, as it has only been a few days since the complete report has been available and the matter is now being carefully considered by representatives of the three counties. "Watchful waiting" might well be the attitude of interested and affected parties just at this time, rather than which we ask that all predictions conform. Most of this class now advises parliament before and during campaigns. We have come on nearly every subject and especially on fruits. The best authorities in the Federal and State Government state university, well known growers, packing and贮 body of authority which ered, and to which we add. That this service is being elated and better known ever increasing numbers Thousands of people conversions, and as many respondence. Mostly have to do with our fine subdivision projects and others. In the past our great dealing with many of our ploitation schemes has been cunningly contrived self methods. The exception single tree or a diminutive attended and watched house plant was multiple berries to be planted and the uninformed city to expect a competence of his laborors on one acer assured he would get real times a conservatism measured by their sense. We now suppliers of our reports with war if their promises practices ignore them thus lead people to hopes and expectations will be denied them year. An avalanche of visions deluged us during years and we were not perfectly cope with thousands of trusting investing their savings are certain of disappointment. We are pared and are surer oo to the department's right projects and still months behind ports on various projects next legislature we quest to collect from cost, not exceeding for making these invoices would deeply appreciate all citizens and particular organizations in ourtect the public, the b and reliable subdivision rapacious effronto ploiters concealed in pointed city office suit. Five men were killed escaping gas after a dare always supposed that a survive modern boozefected by a little thin atmosphere. "Periodically, the forest protection policy of the U.S. Forest Service, which seeks (1) to prevent fires from starting, and (2) to suppress those that may start, is attacked by people who hold that the deliberate and repeated burning of forest lands offers the best method of protecting these lands from the devastation of forest fires... but they present no facts to prove the correctness of their theory. Periodic burning has reduced our forest capital more than 50% and has also turned millions of acres of valuable timber bearing land into the brush waste. In rough mountainous country, such as makes up the greater part of our forested area, it is practically impossible to get the fires to "run" lightly over any large area, or to control them after they are once started. The cost of such work, 35c to $1.00 per acre, is also prohibitive, even if the practice were a good one. At an average cost of 50c per acre for the job, this would mean an annual outlay of six million dollars, or approximately ten times the present yearly expenditure by all state, federal and private individuals, for fire suppression on all forest, brush and range lands in California. If we want a present and future supply of timber for homes and industry, water for irrigation, power and domestic use, an abundance of good fishing and hunting, and recreation grounds for all the people, we must stamp out this promiscuous "light burning" sentiment which fosters and abets the spirit of incendiarism, and renew with added vigor the never ending demon fire." So here we have almost diametrically opposed opinions as to the best methods to follow with reference to the treatment of watershed cover, by two authorities. What is the poor layman to do when one authority advises one thing and another equally good authority advises exactly the opposite? Possibly the experiments being carried on by the Forest Experiment Station, as to the effect of so-called "light burning," erosion on brush covered areas, and those that have been burned over, the run-off at time of precipitation, and later, and many other kindred aspects of this im- There is appearing in the public press of the three counties statements of the amount of money that will be asked for, how it is to be raised, the assessment that will fall to different benefitted parties, and many other conclusions that seem to be premature at this time, as it has only been a few days since the complete report has been available and the matter is now being carefully considered by representatives of the three counties. "Watchful waiting" might very well be the attitude of interested and affected parties just at this time, rather than hasty conclusions. In thi s connection, the following quotation from the state engineer's report is worthy of most careful consideration by all who are affected by, interested in, or working on this all important problem: "Ahead of the engineering accomplishment is the engineering of men. The decision of the community at large must be made. For accomplishment, its public bodies, its semi-public water organization, and its individuals must unite in team work to pool, recarrange and compromise existing interests, to legislate and to create a competent organization to carry out the engineering solution." Respectfully submitted, FRANCIS CUTTLE, Chairman Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee. It's our opinion that when we get into war again, the best way to create an irresistible force that the enemy can't even slow up, will be to put a regiment of taxi-drivers in the front line. President of the National Baseball League suggests that each team should have an extra player to bat for the pitcher. A move more popular with the fans would be to let somebody else do the umpiring for the umpire. Our New Year's resolution is that we are going to economize this year by refraining from buying any steam yachts or taking any trips to Europe. State is Watching Bunko Land Schemes The State Real Estate Department is charged, among other things, with the duty of examining and making a public report upon its findings on farm land subdivisions. We inquire into the title to the lands and how held, to know whether the purchaser is guaranteed good merchantable title. We ask about the water source and sufficiency; soil, drainage, climate, adequacy of financing methods and cost of selling, and literature and conversational promises or predictions employed in merchandising. We have made 125 such inspections during the past two years, involving a total acreage of 500,000. Much of this was offered in one-acre parcels and usually the "set-up" provided for planting of fruit trees or vines to be cared for over a term of years. We discovered 185,000 acres in ten different projects to be unsafe and unpromising as to title to land, or to the water rights, or as to presence of other basic things which precluded the possibility of success to the undertaking. We stopped these fraudulent projects and saved the expecting purchasers many millions of dollars. We corrected the set-up or structure of several other projects to guarantee at least delivery of title to that which they offered, and changed their subjects of culture to something promising reasonable success as to growth and profit, with skillful and honest administration. We have persuaded many others to reduce their prices to figures within reason and fairness. In the absence of evidence of fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation, we do not interfere with any of these projects except to instruct them in essential facts to which we ask that all literature and predictions conform. Most subdividers of this class now advise with the department before and during their sales campaigns. We have collated vast data on nearly every subject of husbandry, and especially on fruits and poultry. The best authorities in the employ of the Federal and State Governments, our state university, well known specialists, growers, packing and canning houses, and text writers, all contribute to this body of authority which we have gathered, and to which we are constantly adding. That service is becoming appreciable.

NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL PROPERTY AT PRIVATE SALE No. 86733 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES. In The Matter of the Estate Catherine O'Leary. An Incompetent Person: Notice is hereby given that under and pursuant to the law made and provided, the undersigned guardian of the Estate of Catherine O'Leary, an incompetent person, will sell at private sale to the highest and best bidder, subject to confirmation of said Superior to which we ask that all literature and predictions conform. Most subdividers of this class now advise with the department before and during their sales campaigns. We have collated vast data on nearly every subject of husbandry, and especially on fruits and poultry. The best authorities in the employ of the Federal and State Governments, our state university, well known specialists, growers, packing and canning houses, and text writers, all contribute to this body of authority which we have gathered, and to which we are constantly adding. That this service is becoming appreciated and better known is indicated in the ever increasing number of inquiries. Thousands of people consult us in conversations, and as many others by correspondence. Mostly these inquiries have to do with our findings relative to subdivision projects and their promoters. In the past our greatest difficulty in dealing with many of these land exploitation schemes has been due to their cunningly contrived selling and lecture methods. The exceptional record of a single tree or a diminutive orchard daily attended and watched over like a hot house plant was multiplied by the number of trees to be planted on a vast area and the uninformed city laborer was led to expect a competence from the fruits of his labors on one acre. What he was assured he would get was generally several times a conservative and safe estimate measured by the rule of common sense. We now supplement the potency of our reports with warnings to agents that if their promises, predictions, and practices ignore the facts we supply and thus lead people to rely upon false hopes and expectations, their licenses will be denied them in the following year. An avalanche of this type of subdivisions deluged us during the past two years and we were not equipped to completely cope with them to prevent thousands of trusting city folks from investing their saving in many which are certain of disappointments as to expected income. We are now better prepared and are surer of our grounds as to the department's right to police such projects and to correct evils. We are still months behind the demand for reports on various projects. We hope that the next legislature will grant our request to collect from these subdividers the cost, not exceeding 25 cents per acre, for making these investigations. We would deeply appreciate the support of all citizens and particularly of agrarian organizations in our endeavor to protect the public, the bona fide growers and reliable subdivision operators from rapacious effrontery of land exploiters concealed in distant richly appointed city office suites.
