Former Resident Returns to Anaheim Gus Schade Visiting Here After An Absence of 28 Years Gus Schade, who was a well known resident of Anaheim more than forty years ago, but who has been away from here twenty-eight years, came in a short time ago to renew acquaintance with his old friends. Mr. Schade came to Anaheim in 1855, but left in 1901 for Arizona, where for more than a quarter of a century he prospected for gold. He encountered many ups and downs in this business, but never accumulated a fortune. In 1918 he moved to Arkansas where he has made his home for the past eleven years. Mr. Schade is now the owner of a tract of 126 acres in Baxter county, Arkansas, and on this tract is situated a spring which flows out of a cave. The constant flow from this spring would fill a six-inch pipe, he says, and it is the same water for which the Osage region is famous—cold, pure and with health-giving qualities. He thinks this water should be utilized, not only for the benefit of the owners but for the benefit of alling people who are seeking health. He is planning to establish a nature resort where visitors may enjoy the salubrious climate and also partake of the health-giving water from his wonderful spring. Mr. Schade is hoping to interest some of his old friends here and secure sufficient capital to carry through his project. He is confident it can be made a profitable enterprise. Taxable Wealth Behind Students Orange County Ranks Above Average For State Exceeding the average for the state by over $30,000, Orange county has $115,660 in taxable wealth behind each pupil registered in its high schools, according to an announcement by R. F. Mitchell, county superintendent of schools. The state average is $87,574 per pupil. It granted the canners an allowance of 25 per cent of their capacity for use in reduction plants. However, this attempt on the part of the state to help the canners has resulted in the evils mentioned in Board's article, and in addition has created a chaotic condition where canners are using every subterfuge to get more sardines in reduction plants, and has made for a heavy over-production that has hammered down the price far below the cost of production. The demand for fish has been so heavy that fishermen have been forced to go farther and farther away from port, making long hauls necessary to secure the coaches demanded. This must eventually result in the extinction of the sardine as a commercial product. N. B. Scofield, head of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries of the division, declares after years of research work on the coast of California. A recent decision of Judge Clair Tappan in the Superior Court of Los Angeles county is to the effect that sardine canners are allowed 25 per cent of what amounts to a theoretical capacity instead of an actual operating capacity, which has been the allowance of the Division of Fish and Game. Using his decision on the line closing machine, which is a canner, production unit, the court declared that the canner be allowed one-fourth of whatever this line would produce at capacity. As a line includes packing tables, exhaust boxes and conveyors to and from the machine that closes the canns, practical experience has proven that eighty per cent is a high average of actual operation. This means that in a calendar month each line should produce 6,400 cases of one-pound ovals. With cases running twenty to the ton, a twenty-five per cent allowance would be eighty tons per line, while the judge decision allows 136.7 tons per machine. This is considered an enormous amount as it is seldom that the canners even operate at the practice capacity previously described, and hard times this would entitle the packer use his entire plant in his reduction plant, thereby sacrificing large quantities of food fish containing combinations of proteins and mineral salts not found in other food products, in order to manufacture fertilizer and by-products. G. H. Hecke, director of the State Department of Agriculture, recently declared there was no agricultural need for the fertilizer made from fish in any suc han extent that it warranted such slump.

F. Mitchell, county superintendent of schools. The state average is $87,574 per pupil. Plumas county, with $215,719 in welath for each pupil, tops the list of counties in the state, while Nevada, with only $31,354 per pupil, is at the bottom. From the state Orange county high schools have received $139,506 for the 1928-1929 school year, according to information revealed by the county school superintendent's office. Of this sum, $28,210 was made available in September and $111,356 in February. Santa Ana high school has been allotted $27,020 for the 1918-1929 year by the state. The Anaheim union high school has been given $20,126.25, Brea-Olinda high school, $8,138.50; Capistrano union high school, $2,976; Fullerton union high school, $27,765; Garden Grove union high school, $6,346.75; Huntington Beach union high school, $11,851.50; Orange union high school, $16,582; Tustin union high school, $8,-762.25. Amounts apportioned to these schools in the February allotment were as follows: Santa Ana, $32,470.75; Anaheim, $16,-126.25; Brea-Olinda, $4,898.50; Capistrano, $776; Fullerton, $23,765; Garden Grove, $4,146.75; Huntington Beach, $9,651.00; Orange, $13,289; Tustin, $6,-232.25. Richfield Brings In Another Well Meets Success In First Well Drilled On a New Lease In the completion of its well No. 30, Section 22-28-28, Kern Front for gauged production of 250 barrels of 16-degree gravity oil daily from a depth of 220 feet, the Richfield Oil company scores success in the first well drilled on the lease since taken over by the company last year. So confident is Richfield of its ability to build up considerable reserve production in this area that well No. 5 is drilling at 2070 feet; it has just spudded in No. 10, is building a rig for No. 25 and hauling material for well No. 20. Richfield's Boston No. 1, a wildcat for deep Vetter zone production, located on the edge of the old Kern River field, where oil from a depth of from 300 to 1500 feet is obtained, is being watched with particular attention by geologists of all companies as this well is believed to be the first ever located entirely as the result of aerial photography and subsequent geological study from the pictures alone. These pictures indicated that the Vetter zone from which production is obtained at Game, who are insisting that measures for elimination of the reduction of fish be passed at this session of the California legislature purely as a conservation measure. This statement is borne out by Harry R. Beard, chief technologist of the United States Bureau of Fisheries, who in discussing the canning activities in California writes in Bureau of Fisheries document No. 1020 issued by the Department of Commerce: "Canning practically has been secondary in importance to the manufacture of fish oil and first meal from whole fish and cannery offal. The state law never has required the canners to pack all the fish they have taken. The liberal excess that has been allowed has been taken advantage of for the manufacture of these products. Inasmuch as there is more profit in the manufacture of fish meal and oil than in sardine canning, every effort has been made to expand this branch of the industry. To do this it has been necessary in order to comply with the state law, to can more fish. To get rid of this canned fish the price has had to be lowered—low enough, in fact, to stimulate a large foreign demand, especially in the Orient, for pound oval sardines. In some places this product has supplanted the cheaper grades of canned salmon; in fact, in 1925 for the first time exports of canned sardines exceeded canned salmon exports. "Whatever advantages or disadvantages the policy discussed above may have in the long run, it has brought about large scale production and a wide distribution of California pound-oval sardines. Adjustments are bound to come in the future, which will have their effect on the industry. In time pound oval sardines must sell at a price that is based on their own cost of production. Production of fish oil and fish meal cannot continue to dominate canning." The law now in effect was passed in 1921 and amended in 1925. It was originally designed to aid the sardine canners in recovering from a post-war drilling at 2070 feet; it has just studied in No. 10, is building a rig for No. 25 and hauling material for well No. 20. Richfield's Boston No. 1, a wildcat for deep Vetter zone production, located on the edge of the old Kern River field, where oil from a depth of from 300 to 1500 feet is obtained, is being watched with particular attention by geologists of all companies as this well is believed to be the first ever located entirely as the result oferial photography and subsequent geological study from the pictures alone. These pictures indicated that the Vetter zone, from which production is obtained at Round Mountain, evidently exists and this largely is the basis on which test is being made. Boston No. 1 now drilling at 1479 feet; is correlating closely with other wells in the district and completion is expected the early part of April. W. E. Dunlap head of the production department of Richfield, who located the well, feels very confident of production and anticipates that in the event the well is a success commercially that its method of location will be followed widely, at least in so far as semi-proven areas are concerned. Europe is said to be undergoing the coldest winter on record, but up to this time our internationalists haven't blamed it on the fact that Uncle Sam didn't join the League of Nations. Swans trapped by having their feet frozen in a river in Germany, were thawed out by the fire department. This must have happened on Germany's Swanace River. It is said that Jascha Helfitz has earned nearly two million dollars in America since 1947 just by playing the violin. That's a lot of money so scrape up in twelve years. Two French newspapermen fought a duel the other day, because one claimed that the other gave him an exaggerated news report. They must take their journalism seriously over there.

E. Kunderd Originates New Species of Favorite Blooms A. E. Kunderd Originates New Species of Favorite Blooms Why do seven generations of scholars sometimes produce in the eighth generation a male offspring who turns out to be a bank robber? Why do seven generations of fine, strong, white gladioli sometimes in the eighth generation produce a red flower? Chicken or Egg First These two problems of heredity and environment are similar to the problems of creation which have always puzzled scientists. They are nearer solution today, according to A. E. Kunderd, world famed grower of gladioli of Goshen, Indiana, than at any time in history. Mr. Kunderd is rounding out a half century of experimentation of hybridizing that queen of garden flowers, the gladiolus. Today he will laughingly disclaim that he ever expects to prove, "Which came first—the chicken or the egg?" Nor can you commit him definitely on, "Which is stronger—heredity or environment?" He will also deny that he is on the eve of any great discovery in the field of evolution. The horticulturist feels strongly, however that his accumulated knowledge of nearly half a century's work is permitting him to foretell with increasing accuracy the results of hybridizing flowers whose ancestry is known for many generations. This, of course, is the careful application of Mendel's Law. Now, if Mendel's Law can be carried to the 4th degree, it will seem that plant and animal breeders work with much greater accuracy than in the past and can bring into the world species whose attributes of character can be determined in advance. Produces New Types If Gregor Johan Mendel, Austrian monk and scientist who died in 1884, is some day awarded the supreme distinction of having paved the way for "race determination," another award will surely go to Mr. Kunderd for co-ordinating the work of scientists by his productions of new delightful types of gladioli. As the development of plant life corresponds so closely to that of animal life, and as the gladiolus is so adaptable for study because of its case of propagation and widely varied color gradations, it is logical to think of Mr. Kunderd's accomplishments as anticipatory of race determination.
