Look Forward To Record Tourist Year Heaviest Influx Ever Known Is Expected Another record-breaking motor tourist year is under way for Southern California. It is indicated by the sharp increase in incoming cars shown in the figures for the first three months of this year. More than 10,000 additional cars have crossed the state boundaries into this section during the first three months of 1929 than during the first quarter of last year. The total number of cars counted at the Yuma, Blythe and Daggett border stations on the main eastern entrance highways by the representatives of the state department of agriculture is reported to be 34,213 for this year to date. Although this number includes California tourists' cars returning to this section, the tally shows nearly 20,000 or exactly 19,828 machines registered in other states entered Southern California during the first three months. This huge influx of out-of-state cars carrying approximately 64,000 passengers is just the late winter and spring travel. The question is raised: In view of this great gain in tourists during the first three months, what number can be looked for during the remained of the year after the travel season gets well under way? It is estimated that some 500,000 visitors will enter Southern California by motor car over all highways during this year. Computations have declared the economic value of the rail and motor tourist business to California for one year at $160,000,000 of new money, placing it second in importance among the major industries. At the annual Ojal tennis meet, at which nearly all high schools participated, Anaheim was represented by Melva Roquet and Julian Martinez in the mixed doubles, and Herman Fraig and Leason Pomeroy in the interscholastic doubles. Pomeroy and Fraig advanced into the quartet finals before being eliminated, while Roquet and Martinez were defeated in the first match. They were pitted against the state's best high school players. One reason the children always go out after dark nowadays is that they are afraid to stay in the house alone.

THE TOWN DOCTOR (The Doctor of Towns) SAYS There Are Those Who Say, "Its All a Lot of Boloney" Almost every honest endeavor to induce people to do something for their community is branded by certain types of individual as hot air, bunk, hoeey and "It's all a lot of baloney." The fellow who starts whispering, "The it outside," when THINKING residents talk about the value of "boosting" is usually the fellow who goes outside the record regarding the truth when making conversation about himself. Such people are so engrossed in their own littleness that they cannot grasp the BIGNESS OF COLLECTIVE thinking. The greatest service anyone can do for his community is to THINK about it. Let everyone think a community is GOD and it WILL be—not overnight—not in a month—nor perhaps even in a year. But THINKING it is good will create and cause ACTION that will gradually and surely MAKE it good. On the other hand, think your town is NO good and it will be just that tand nothing different. THINKING about those things that will improve your community is not a duty—it's a business; therefore, it isn't a question of why you should but why shouldn't you lie a booster? A booster is one who supports his town enthusiastically—one who gets BEHIND and PUSHES vigorously, consistently and persistently. The other fellow gets in FRONT and leans LACKWARD, or gets in the read making it tough going for the PUSHERS. A booster is an optimist and a joymaker; he is not a cynic nor a crepe extracts, have been tested against the codling moth. These materials in forms available at present, have been shown to be inadequate in killing the eggs, and must actually come in contact with the worms to effect a kill. Lime-sulphur has very cases to pick off the rusted leaves and spray the remaining parts of the plants. This method may be used to control even the hollyhock rust if it is a sufficient distance away from infected Malva plants. Wherever spraying can be used for rusts, the best spray to use is Bordeaux mixture made according to the standard 4-4-50 formula: that is, 4 pounds of fresh stone lime slaked to a paste and then diluted to a milky solution, and 4 pounds of copper sulphate, or bluestone, dissolved in about one gallon of water; then these two solutions diluted to 25 gallons each, and poured slowly together with constant stirring into the spray tank. This same lime, 4 ounces of copper sulphate, and diluting each to one and one-half gallons with water, so as to make three gallons of spray mixture. If hydrated lime is to be used in either of these formulae, use half as much again as of the stone lime. BLACK SPOT. The black spot of roses causes rounr or irregular black spots on the leaves and sometimes on the stems of roses without any considerable distortion of the affected parts, but eventually kills the area infected. The black spot disease of roses is sometimes serious in Orange county. When it occurs in sufficient amount to cause leaves to fall off, it is worth while to pick off the worst affected leaves or prune off the canes showing black spots and then spray with Bordeaux mixture, the same formulae as used for rusts. Latest Facts About The Coddling Moth Horticultural Commissioner Brock Issues Statement About the Pest Coddling moth and aphids are the only pests of economic importance to walnut growers in Orange county, and some of the difficulty in controlling codling moth may be more fully appreciated by a better understanding of its life history, and the vital effect temperatures have upon this life cycle. "The larva or worm is the only stage of the codding moth which is injurious and the only injury of consequence is to the nut." Also this is the only stage in the life cycle when the insect is susceptible to control measures. Successful control requires the ability to recognize the insect in its various stages. Average length of life: 2 weeks; begins laying eggs within a day or two after emergence; average number of eggs laid by each female: 40. Codling moths are capable of trying half a mile or more. In orchard sections, however, they do not ordinarily travel far, unless carried by the wind, as their object is to reach a tree on which to deposit eggs." "The nearly white egg is about the size of a pinhead and resembles a thin convex disk. A few days after the egg is laid, a red ring, the germ band, becomes apparent, and the day before the worm hatches, a black spot, the head of the worm, is easily seen. The eggs are extremely sensitive to temperature. High temperatures will hatch the worms in five days and cool weather has retarded incubation for as long as 23 days. The average incubation period is about ten days. "Immediately after hatching from the egg, the young worm, less than one-eighth of an inch long, with a black head, apparently too large for the body, begins active search for food. In this stage it is most susceptible to control measures. Therefore, it is the purpose of the sprayer to have the presence of lead on the nuts when the largest number of young worms will be feeding." "The tough, waterproof cocoon is coated with white silken threads, and commonly found about the tree under rough pieces of bark, in cracks or wounds in the branches or trunk." Coccons are often abundant in cracks and under slats of the drying trays. While undergoing the changes from smooth to moth, the insect is called a laceco extracts, have been tested against the codling moth. These materials in forms available at present, have been shown to be inadequate in killing the eggs, and must actually come in contact with the worms to effect a kill. Lime-sulphur has very little effect on the worms, either as a contact insecticide or as a stomach poison. Fruit growers should avoid the use of new and untried preparations or sprays, as in the great majority of cases these prove to be worthless. CULTIVATION—Since many codling moth larvae enter the soil to spin their cocoons, it has been thought that cultivation would be of some value in destroying these. The evidence at hand tends to show that the great majority of these worms enter the soil at the trunk and spin their cocoons in contact with the trunk or larger roots. It would therefore be impracticable to destroy any of these cocoons by cultivation. Clean cultivation of an orchard has no effect in reducing the number of worms. MILDEWS AND RUSTS IN THE GARDEN Among the commonest diseases of plants in spring are the mildews and the rusts. Two large groups of diseases each of them having many members which affect a wide variety of plants. POWDERY MILDEWS. The powdery mildews attack leaves and tender growing shoots, covering them with a whitish, powdery coating. Quite often the leaves become slightly distorted or curled. The shoots may become spindling and unhealthy in appearance. If the disease appears early in the season and is not checked it may lead to the death of the affected parts in most plants. Rose mildew affects many varieties of roses if they are planted in too shaded or too moist a situation. A few varieties are badly affected by it in this climat, even when precautions have been taken to plant in sunny locations. Among these, some of the rambler varieties and a few hybrids mildew so badly that they cannot be successfully grown in the dooryard. Varieties of roses which are known to mildew easily should be planted in sunshiny and well aerated locations. Care should be taken to irrigate such varieties deeply but not often, and especially not to permit lawn sprinklers to play on them a part of each day. The varieties less susceptible to mildew can be protected by spraying with two per cent lime sulphur solution when the mildew appears. This solution is In this stage it is most susceptible to control measures. Therefore, it is the purpose of the sprayer to have the largest number of young worms will be feeding. "The tough, waterproof cocoon is grown at white silken threads, and commonly found about the tree under rough pieces of bark, in cracks or wounds in the branches or trunk." Cocons are often abundant in cracks and under slats of the drying trays. While undergoing the changes from worm to moth, the insect is called a pupa. At first this is amber colored changing later to a dark brown. When the necessary changes have taken place, the pupa wriggles its way out of the cocoon, the pupa case splits at the front, and the moth emerges. The empty pupa cases are frequently seen in the orchard protruding from cocons. At the present time natural enemies cannot be relied upon to prevent damage from codling moth. A few beetles prey on the worms, and some eggs are found to be parasitized by a minute four-winged fly (Trichogramma minutum), but for the most part the codling moth is free from attack by other insects. Since many valuable methods for the control of the codling moth are continually being proposed, it seems necessary to mention some of them here in order to show why they are of no practical use. TRAP LIGHTS—Trap lights are frequently suggested to catch the moths. They are worthless for the reason that the codling moth is not attracted to lights to any extent. In this respect it differs from many of the night-flying cutworm moths which may be attracted to lights in numbers. BAITS—Various baits have been tried, such as elder, or vinegar and water, placed in pans or jars in the orchard. Tests of these baits have shown that, while a few codling moths are attracted to them, the numbers thus caught are too small to warrant the necessary expenditure of time and money. Many beneficial insects are also caught. SPRAYS—Nicotino sulphate, or to- locations. Among these, some of the rambler varieties and a few hybrids mildew so badly that they cannot be successfully grown in the dooryard. Varieties of roses which are known to mildew easily should be planted in sunshiny and well aerated locations. Care should be taken to irrigate such varieties deeply but not often, and especially not to permit lawn sprinklers to play on them a part of each day. The varieties less susceptible to mildew can be protected by spraying with two per cent lime sulphur solution when the mildew appears. This solution is generally useful in the control of mildews; however, there are some plants too tender for its use. When a badly mildewed plant is sprayed with lime sulphur it often happens that the mildewed leaves and twigs are killed, partly by the mildew and partly by the spraying. This is not a loss because these parts should die anyway, but it may serve to give an unsightly appearance to the plants. Mildews occur also on oak trees. Early spring spraying is a good preventive of its spread. The trees should be sprayed before the mildew appears on the new growth. Sweet pea mildew should be treated as far as possible by keeping the soil about the peas well stirred, by growing them in well ventilated and sunny locations, and by avoiding too heavy and dense masses of vines. RUSTS. The rusts comprise another large group of diseases, members of which affect many plants. The commonest rust here is hollyhock rust, which is so wide-spread and severe in its attacks on the wild Malva week that it is practically out of the question to raise hollyhocks in a neighborhood where this weed abounds, so the rust spreads so easily from the Malva to the hollyhocks. Rusts are known on carnations, snapdragons, columcurrants and many other plants. Spraying is a satisfactory means of control for most rusts if it can be applied early enough to prevent infection. It will not kill the rust fungus after it has entered the leaves of the plant, so it is best to spray when rust is expected rather than to wait until it appears.
