Gov. Young Backs Highway Board Favors a Survey of State For Secondary System of Roads That Governor C. C. Young will go on record before the present session of the state legislature as favoring the elimination of the asserted inequality in distribution of road funds between the northern and southern sections of the state, in accordance with an administration policy previously announced, appears certain. He also will support the move to ratify the acts of the highway commission to include a survey of the roads proposed for the secondary system in Southern California. These facts emerged following a conference in Los Angeles on Saturday, attended by Governor Young, B. B. Meek, director of public works; Senator Nelson T. Edwards of Orange; and the roads and highways committees representing five regional councils of the California Development association. In effect this action is taken to mean that the development association's proposal for inclusion of 600 to 800 miles of new secondary roads in the state system, was ratified with the southern section to participate in the expansion on a three or four to one basis. It is understood that the governor will make definite announcement to the legislature that the administrating is supporting such a policy. Final acceptance of new highways in Southern California is expected to follow during the next legislative session. The conference is reported to have adopted a resolution formulated by the development association highway committee on January 18. The resolution follows: Whereas, the state highway commission is engaged in carrying out the development and maintenance of the state highway system of California as provided for by the Breed act, which became a law two years ago, and Whereas, the commission has indicated that the highway plan provided Experiment Station, have been included in the plots. This system of testing says Prof. B. H. Crocheron, director of agricultural extension in the University of California, gives accurate yield data which makes it possible for farm advisors to know the varieties best adapted to their counties. In general White Federation wheat and Atlas barley have shown a marked adaptability to a wide area in California," says Professor Crocheron. "Kaneta oats seems to be a generally successful variety. However, and general statewide recommendation of any variety is a fallacy. No variety is adapted to all localities, therefore local tests are essential. "Such tests must go forward over a period of years. Varieties spring up which seem superior in yield for a season or two, but through controlled tests all but the consistent yielders are eliminated. Ultimately these tests will result in the adoption of a few cereal varieties which are consistently high yielders, are of good quality and growth habits and are reasonably resistant to disease. The value of this work in dollars and cents has seldom been appreciated. "Although grain is one of the large crops of California, it has little public attention because of its low value per acre and because it is a world-wide commodity and not a 'California specialty.' Steadily and quietly, however, grain improvement is going forward through the extensive series of variety test plots located by the farm advisors in all parts of the state." Tampering With Credulity Brigadier General Charteris, Chief of Intelligence of the British army during the war, after the war explained the spread of propaganda, cliting as an example the story that the Germans were using the war dead for fertilizer. He himself was instrumental in the story in China, which was time showing a tendency German. The Chinese perceived their dead and the people who would so desecrate changed public opinion in Germany whimmingly in favor of the story gained momentum credence, was the subject of monetary investigation and great deal of publicity. The British general demonstration for his honesty, his revelation was not due pride in his cleverness, would be as honest, however learn just how much we are propaganda. This specific war propaganda causes one why the League of Nations have a bureau charged with de-propagandizing nation war—devoted to carrying the people, which have been keptcept and believe stories of entities, back to truth, so national relations might be possible be established against of trust and friendliness, in trade and commerce.

The conference is reported to have adopted a resolution formulated by the development association highway committee on January 18. The resolution follows: Whereas, the state highway commission is engaged in carrying out the development and maintenance of the state highway system of California as provided for by the Breed act, which became a law two years ago, and Whereas, the commission has indicated that the highway plan provided by that act should in wisdom and fairness be in some respects altered, and is at this time in conference with various organizations interested in highway development giving diligent attention to the form which such alterations should take, and Whereas, it is obvious that any changes should be based on careful assessment and analysis of all pertinent facts. Therefore, be it resolved that the California Development Association favor the state highway commission being given time and opportunity in conference with interested organizations, to work out in an orderly way an equitable plan for the further development of the state highway system and Be it further resolved, that the California Development Association discourage the introduction or passage at the 1922 session of the legislature of any bills infringing on the principles herein set out. In addition to Senator Edwards, other Orange county men attending the session were O. E. Guenther, V. D. Johnson and Willard Smith of Orange; H. H. Hale, Placentia; and Nat H. Neff, highway superintendent. Outlook for Lemons More Favorable According to the recent 1929 Agricultural Outlook, prepared under the direction of H. R. Wellman of the Agricultural Extension Service, the future of the lemon industry looks brighter. The available information indicates that lemon production in this state is now at about the peak. While there may be a further increase in the average yield per acre due to the increased age of the trees, it is not likely to be large, and it will probably be largely affected by a decrease in bearing acreage. Since 1925 the trend of bearing acreage has been downward, falling from 44,270 acres in 1925, to 42,360 acres in 1928. This downward trend is likely to continue during the next few years at least, since the present no-bearing acreage amounts to less than 2,800 acres, which is not sufficient for normal replacements. It should not be expected, however, that this downward trend will be rapid. Decreases in the acreage of tree fruits take place very slowly.

When you are ready to cook gas is to serve you—no delay, no un Since 1925 the trend of bearing acreage has been downward, falling from 44,270 acres in 1925, to 42,860 acres in 1928. This downward trend is likely to continue during the next few years at least, since the present nobearing acreage amounts to less than 2,800 acres, which is not sufficient for normal replacements. It should not be expected, however, that this downward trend will be rapid. Decreases in the acreage of tree fruits take place very slowly. Fortunately for the welfare of the entire lemon industry, the California Fruit Growers' Exchange has been able to regulate shipments sufficiently to avoid extreme disaster in years of large crops. If all of the lemons that were produced in this state during the two years of 1925-26 and 1926-27 had been shipped, it would have resulted in a very much smaller gross return than was received. The experience during the past twenty years has been that a small crop brings a larger total return than a large crop, other things, such as imports and temperatures, being equal. The principal reason for this is that the demand for lemons is relatively inelastic. With a given demand situation a material decline in price is necessary in order to dispose of a surplus because consumption does not respond promptly to a lowering price. On the other hand, a comparatively small shortage in supply will cause prices to rise rapidly because such a rise does not greatly retard consumption.

Grain Variety Improvement Work In its campaign to improve grain varieties in the state and to determine varieties best adapted to various localities, the University of California Agricultural Extension Service has in the past three years conducted 117 sets of rod-row test plots in 17 counties of the state. Increasing the work, 108 such tests of plots were planted last fall. Locally grown cereal varieties, as well as new varieties developed by the himself was instrumental in starting the story in China, which was at that time showing a tendency to be proerman. The Chinese people reverence their dead and the thought of a people who would so desecrate the dead changed public opinion in China overhelmingly in favor of the allies. The story gained momentum and credence, was the subject of a parlamentary investigation and received a great deal of publicity. The British general deserves commendation for his honesty. We trust his revelation was not due merely to pride in his cleverness. If others could be as honest, however, we might learn just how much we are duped by propaganda. This specific instance of war propaganda causes one to wonder why the League of Nations should not have a bureau charged with the task of de-propagandizing nations after a war—devoted to carrying the minds of people, which have been made to accept and believe stories of enemy trocities, back to truth, so that international relations might as quickly as possible be established again on a basis of trust and friendliness. In the interest of trade and commerce, the idea isn't entirely wild but it would undoubtedly be opposed by the militarists because they ronce or twice believing such stoiles and then being deliberately made to disbelieve them, the brightest among its might cease to believe the stories of trocities and horrors when they were first sent broadcast for our consumption. LIVING FASTER The recklessness of the people of this age in gambling with their energy to meet the demands of the rapidly changing times and in their quest for wealth, self-gratification, thrills and speedy living that is characteristic of the so-called jazz age, constitutes one of the great problems of the day for the medical profession and the public. Nature has been generous in endowing us with the energy to do the normal work and enjoy the normal pleasures that are a part of life. But the high-pressure era seems to have come so suddenly, as time goes, that the human race has not been able to adjust itself to meet its demands. The race is at least a million years old, according to the calculations of the scientists. At nature does not hurry in adapting itself to changes. It would be manifestly impossible for us safely to change the living habits of such a long span of time in a hundred or a thousand dyes, much less in a generation. Our forefathers were canny fellows. Or, perhaps, they do not deserve so much credit for their good health as the conditions under which they lived. They drank alcoholic liquors in amount that not even the moonshine addict of today could survive. They ate huge meals that would rapidly put persons living today in the hands of a physician, if not in the hands of the undertaker. But their mode of living balanced their intemperate habits and appetites. They lived hardy lives in the open. They lived slowly. They rode horseback. They did hard manual labor. But all this doesn't explain why the nerves of modern man are more jumpy and highstrung than those of his ancestors within three generations. The bad nerves of this generation are blamed on the fast, exciting and dangerous life it is living, but the jazz life at its jazziest seems sedentary, safe and serene in comparison with that of the pioneer days when one was either chasing or being chased by ferocious beasts.
