Diamond Jubilee of California Fair
Each County Will Enter An Historical Exhibit
Orange county will have an excellent opportunity to show its products and resources and to advertise them effectively at California's Diamond Jubilee State Fair in Sacramento next September, it is declared by R. A. Condee, president of the California State Agricultural Society.
Following a meeting of the fair directors this week, it awhich plans were put under way for the big anniversary event, Condee made this statement:
"The State Fair this year, with its anniversary features and exhibits from other Western states, will take on the scope and importance of a Western exposition. It will attract throngs of people from all parts of the Pacific slope the middle west and the east. We confidently expect an attendance of more than a half million persons during the ten days."
"The California State Fair is now regarded as the world's greatest horticultural show, due to the great variety and excellence of the Golden State's products. It also ranks with America's greatest livestock shows, as was proved by the fact that winners of grand championships at our state fair last year captured the highest honors at the American Royal Livestock show in Kansas City and the International Livestock show in Chicago.
"We hope every California county will be represented in the 11 horticultural pavilion next September (1), because this is the 75th anniversary of the foundin of the State Fate and thus becomes an event in which every county should take pride; (2), because it is an exceptional opportunity for each county, to derive a very definite benefit through the publicity and advertising which an occasion of such magnitude and importance is sure to create.
"Each year we have noted an increased number of participating counties. This year we are alming at a 100 per cent representation, with these counties which have previously participated even excelling their attractive exhibits of"
Whiting-Mead Co. Expects Good Year
Optimism for the 1929 business outlook was the keynote of speeches given at the recent annual meeting of the Whiting-Mead Co. Los Angeles, at which there was an attendance of more than 175. Representatives of the various departments in the organization, together with branch store managers and a delegation from the San Diego division were present.
Perry Whiting, president, was the principal speaker of the evening. He touched briefly on the history of the company since it began 30 years ago. The organization at that time, he stated was composed of himself and the transportation department consisting of horse, a wagon and a driver. Today the firm is one of the largest of its kind west of the Mississippi river with branches in Montebello, Inglewood North Hollywood, Oceanside, San Diego and El Centro.
W. H. Mead, vice-president of the big building material firm, was the first speaker, who was introduced by H. L. Miner, general manager, chairman of the meeting. Mr. Mead spoke in glowing terms of the harmony and feeling of good fellowship which exists within the organization as evidenced by the enthusiasm prevailing at the annual meetings. Other speeches made during the evening by the various department heads contained many constructive suggestions for increasing the service to customers. Each gave a brief review of the year's work in his particular department and outlined plans for thn new year.
Economic Facts Given to Farmers
Nearly 1,000 meetings on agricultural economic subjects have been held by farm advisors of the University of California. Agricultural Extension Service during the year 1928, according to NIC annual report of Prof. B. H. Crocheron, director of the agricultural extension division of the College of Agriculture.
The report shows that during the past twelve months farm advisors gave 630 addresses, illustrated by charts and other graphic means, on price trends and forecasts, based on facts collected

Agricultural Extension Service during the year 1928, according to the annual report of Prof. B. H. Crocheron, director of the agricultural extension division of the College of Agriculture.
The report shows that during the past twelve months farm advisors gave 630 addresses, illustrated by charts and other graphic means, on price trends and forecasts, based on facts collected by the College of Agriculture. These meetings were attended by 46,962 persons.
In addition to these educational presentations, the Agricultural Extension Service in 1928 published eight bulletins on economic crops, these including reviews of the situation as regards apricots, peaches, almonds, lettuce, beans, ranges, lemons and grapefruit. Also there was published the bulletin on the agricultural situation in California, an exposition of the economic status of farming in the state.
In 1929 this work in agricultural economics is to be continued and broadened according to Professor Crocheron. The meetings will be continued, more bulletins on California crops will be published, and about February 1 the first agricultural outlook for California will be ready.
"As as result of these widespread educational processes among the farmers of California, they will be the best informed group on agriculture in the world on the price trends and economic status of the crops they produce," predicts Professor Crocheron.
SOVIETISM AND RELIGION
One of the astonishing developments of the societ movement in Russia from the American standpoint, is the fact that in our own country the community system of Russia seems to be looked at with favor by not a few ministers of the gospel. True it is that most of the ministers who seem to like the doctrine of Red Russia are of the so-called "liberal" stripe. But it is astonishing nevertheless, that a man who supposedly is advocating the doctrines of Christianity could find himself moved to defend a system which is notoriously anti-

California Gets Big Slice of Fund
Will Receive Nearly $2,500,000 From Federal Road Appropriation
Federal aid in highways for the fiscal year beginning July 1 next will amount to $73,125,000. This will be apportioned among the 48 states of the Union and the territory of Hawaii.
Contrary to the general belief, the states of the East receive federal aid for their roads in proportion to those of the West. California will receive the largest sum of any western state with $2,495,345. It ranks sixth among all the states in amount received.
The largest sum will go to a southern state, Texas, which will receive $4,531,162. The second largest apportionment will go at New York state, which will receive $3,617,748. The third largest, $3,255,854, also goes to an eastern state as this is the amount allowed to Pennsylvania. The Hawaiian Islands will receive $265,625 for their roads from the United States government.
These apportionments have been authorized by Congress for continuing the federal aid program, and the funds will be expended according to the same provisions that have governed past expenditures. In general the states pay half the cost of federal aid construction, but federal aid funds are available only for routes on the federal aid system, which includes the main highways of thenation.
During the last fiscal year improvements were completed on 8,184 miles of federal aid read, which had not been previously been improved with federal assistance.
Christian and anti-religious
An a case in point: a cable dispatch from High under date of December 27 sets out that on Christmas eve, the society government caused to be broadcast through loud speakers which were set up near the churches in all Russian cities, a program of attack on religion. It was stated that A. V. Munscharsky, commissioner of education, issued a violent assault against the churches, urging parents to keep their children
Low Numbers Not a Protection
Frank G. Snook Issues a Warning to All Autoists
Low automobile license plate numbers must not be regarded as giving their owners immunity against arrest in case they violate the Motor Vehicle Act or as giving them any special privileges whatever.
This was the word sent out by Frank G. Snook, chief of the division of motor vehicles to all county traffic officers and municipal peace officers, warning them that holders of low numbers who violate the law must receive exactly the same treatment as any other violator.
Snook said the new system of lettering the plates had created thousands of new low numbers, most of which were assigned to their owners over the counters of the division offices.
"I got me impress upon you that this type of plate carries with it no special privileges or courtesies not extended to every motorist," Snook's bulletin said.
Snook also urged the officers to make every effort to get motorists in their respective communities to make application at once for their new plates. The legal period for filing such applications will expire this month. After that tardy motorists will be required to pay double.
The motor chief predicted a record-breaking registration pointing out that the division had an increase of more than $600,000 worth of business over the same date of a year ago.
To apply for license plates it is only necessary for the car owner to enclose his fee in an envelope together with the certificate of registration, and mail both to the division or motor vehicles at Sacramento. If the motorist has changed his address he should note it on the certificate.

New York theatre men are trying to find the reason for poor theater business in the country this winter. They will be lucky if they hit on the real reason, which is poor shows.
Christian and anti-religious.
An a case in point; a cable dispatch from Riga under date of December 25 sets out that on Christmas eve, the society government caused to be broadcast through loud speakers which were set up near the churches in all Russian cities, a program-of attack on religion.
It was stated that A. V. Kunarchsky, commissioner of education, issued a violent verbal assault against the churches, urging parents to keep their children away from services and Sunday schools.
It is said that several such addresses were followed by the antics of "comedians" who parodied the story of the manager at Bethlehem. It is said that these attacks were for the most part revolting with off-color stories reviling the most sacred of Christian beliefs.
Here is something called "liberal" ministers and educators of our own country to think over carefully. Russia is a so-called "people's" government in which, however, millions of the people are now on the verge of starvation. Yet we find that government, instead of adopting constructive measures to relieve its own situation, spending money on Christmas eve to belittle Christianity and attempt to take away from millions of its people the solace and comfort of religion in a time of suffering and doubt. Russian comedy at its best is terrible, but the parody of the religion of any people shows a lack of humanity and fine feeling that, were there nothing else against it, would speak decidedly ill of the bolshevik regime in Russia.
It is a noteworthy fact that practically all of the so-called pro-Russian liberalists among us are against American defense. Yet they never say a word about the gigantic military preparations in Russia. Nor will their voices be heard in condemnation of any anti-religious barricade in Russia.
Greenville cloth and almanac cloth are named given to a strong, durable cotton material known in the South as osnaburg, which has many use for household draperies, couch covers, chair slips and other furnishings. It is insensitive, easily laundered and dyed to match other furnishings, and procurable almost everywhere.
THE greatest strides in automobile mile motor development have come through high compression. The modern 91.5 inch racing motor which has developed more than 280 horse-power and a speed greater than 164 miles per hour is only one-half the size of the old Model T Ford, which was capable of developing only 25 horse-power er. High compression has done its job.
Two years ago only 1%, a year ago less than 21%, while today more than 56% of American automobile manufacturers are producing high compression motor. Compression ratios are constantly increasing because with high compression there is less fuel consumption—greater power—greater speed and acceleration with generally reduced operating costs.

WHY HIGH COMPRESSION
Greatest strides in automobile development have through high compression modern 91.5 inch racing which has developed more horse-power and a speed than 164 miles per hour is half the size of the old Ford, which was capable stopping only 25 horse-powder compression has done it!
Years ago only 1%, a year less than 21%, while today than 56% of American mobile manufacturers are using high compression Compression ratios constantly increasing be with high compression is less fuel consumption—greater power—great speed and acceleration, which generally reduced operating costs.
High Compression motors were not commercially practical however, until a fuel was developed that would function where ordinary gasolines failed. This fuel is Ethyl Gasoline, developed and proved after many years research and the expenditure of thousands of dollars. Blended with the finest gasolines by 42 of the largest and best known oil companies in the world, it is the only genuine anti-knock fuel for high compression motors.
Because Ethyl Gasoline is dyed to distinguish it from ordinary gasolines, hundreds of initiators have produced dyed or so-called anti-knock gasolines whose chief merit is their many claims. Ethyl Gasoline is the only genuine, anti-knock, high compression fuel; and can be obtained only from authorized distributors of Ethyl Brand of anti-knock compound.
