Can't Keep a Good Mountain Down "Extra! Extra! Mt. Lassen smashes to smithereens." But it's not as serious as it might be, because another mountain is being built. Building mountains is all part of the day's work at the California State Fair grounds, where California's scenic marvels are being reproduced in miniature for the Diamond Jubilee Fair and Western Exposition, which opens August 31st. But when a rope breaks or slips as the huge replicas are being hoisted into position, that's something else again. It so happened with the counterpart of Mt. Lassen, America's famous volcano which is planned as the predominating feature of the Tehama county exhibit. George Collins, forest ranger and artist, spent months at the entrance of Mt. Lassen National Park modelling the celebrated peak. It was all fitted up with pipes through which steam would hiss and mud pots would bubble. The two-ton replica was mounted on a truck and carried 200 miles to the big payillon at the fair grounds. Then the rope broke. But you can't keep a good mountain down commented T. R. Ramsay of Red Bluff, vice-president of the State Fair board as a large force of men started this week building another mountain. Young People Are On the Up-Grade California's young men and women are on the "up grade" in muscular and organic strength was the finding of preliminary judges in the "physical perfection" and "perfect back" contest to be held at the National Progressive Chiropractic association's annual convention this week in Los Angeles. Contestants in the early judgir have graded 5½ per cent better than entrants in any previous chiropractic contest in Southern California, according to Dr. Charles H. Wood, general chairman. He attributed the improvement to better understanding of health requirements, increased discrimination in entables and a recently obtained "independence" which steels youth to insist on needed recreation and relaxation from vitality wrecking toll. Several hundred contestants have been through preliminary examinations and it is believed sixty will grade to place in the finals. When chosen winners, the pair will be held up to the rest of the world as examples of health attainable in Southern California. Three thousand delegates from all parts of the United States are expected at the meet, which will be held in the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. Sessions will be dedicated to fighting human diseases by new chiropractic methods, which, it is said, are being hit upon at a high rate in the chiropractic schools of this country. Don't Miss This!

The volumes are to be purchased at the grand "Mostra del Libro" to be held in San Francisco this fall, according to Professor Herbert Austin, chairman of the department of Italian at Southern California, and editor of Italica, quarterly bulletin of the American association of teachers of Italian. College classes were attended by 642 city and county officials of the west this summer, when the School of Civilship and Public Administration of the University of Southern California held its second annual short course on the science of government. More than 50 cities were represented. Professor Robert H. Newlands of the Department of English of the University, of Southern California is acting as technical adviser to a number of motion picture studios in Hollywood, criticising diction and dialogue for sound films. Professor Newlands was formerly headmaster at Central school, England. His excellency, the Hon. Carlos Davila, ambassador to the United States from the Republic of Chile, was the recipient of the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws conferred upon him by the University of Southern California during his visit to Los Angeles this month (August). According to Dr. W. D. Moriarty, professor of economics at the University of Southern California, 90% of the employees in the retail stores in the next ten years will be wqwen. A recently organized Society for Occupational Research, working in cooperation with the Committee on Guidance and Placement of the 122 Kiwanis clubs of the California-Nevada district, has just established headquarters on the campus of the University of South Carolina. Southern California this fall in charge of Professor H. Nordwein von Koerber, formerly of the University of Amoy-China. This innovation is in line with the growing program of international education at S.C. "To understand a peculiar world there is only one sure way—to use the proper vehicle, language, and to understand its origin, religion," states Dr. von Koerber, who has studied and taught in Tibet, Siberia, Central Africa, the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines. "Having resided in the Far East and in Central Asia for a number of years, I found by observation and experience that language should form an integral part of any study, and also that a knowledge of religions is the key for adequate understanding of all the nations beyond the Pacific. Therefore not only literature, commerce, philosophy, history, law and social conditions of the oriental countries should be studied, but also their languages and religions. "Southern California, as the extreme southwestern part of American and European culture, with Los Angeles as its rapidly growing metropolis, will one day form the nucleus for the exchange of the best treasures which occidental and oriental mankind has to offer for the benefit of the world," believes Professor von Koerber. In the academic year 1929-1930 the department of oriental studies at the Trojan university will offer a class for beginners in the Japanese conversational language, in the Chinese classical language, a one-year course in comparative oriental philology, a year's course in history of Chinese culture, and lectures on main currents in Chinese and Japanese literature. FIGS IN TARIFF BILL Figs will receive the rates granted them by the House due to reconsideration by the Senate Finance Committee, according to a wire received by T. C. Tucker, chairman of the Growers Tariff League. Mr. Tucker, through long distance telephone conversation with Washington, found out just what had happened to figs and set what ma- CLEAN TOBACCO FIELDS Control of tobacco diseases, as of other plant diseases, should be based on prevention rather than on cure. It is not too early now to reduce the chances of infection in next year's crop. If seed beds are infected with any leaf disease, plow under the plants as soon as you are through with them, advises the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Sometimes it is well to locate the seed bed elsewhere for the following crop. Do not save seed in wildfire or black-fire infested fields unless you plan to disinfect the seed thoroughly. If the field crop is affected with wildfire, black fire or mosaic, plow the land as soon as possible after harvest. Do not store seed-bed frames, sash, or cloth covers over winter in curing sheds with infected tobacco, as this may introduce the disease in the seed bed again next spring. A Persimmon Refrigerator A unique method of open-air cold storage is used for storing persimmons in northeastern China, says Dr. P. H. Dorsett, agricultural explorer of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Practically entire winter's supply of persimmons grown in the vicinity to the north of Peking amounting to many millions of fruits, is stored in outdoor beds along terraced river banks, in orchards along streams, in village compounds, and on river bottoms of sand and gravel. The fruit is without protection of any kind except the bed of kaolong stems (a kind of sorghum) and a thin covering of reed-grass matting which, after the fruit is frozen, is supplemented with a covering of dry mountain grass or other litter to a depth of about two feet. The fruit is thawed out by the consumer as wanted. Thawing is done in the open or by putting the fruit into cool water and thawing it slowly, when it is as good to eat as when freshly picked. If the darliyman is to get a fair return on his investment and labor, his dairy herd must average 300 pounds or more daily. According to Dr. W. D. Moriarty, professor of economics at the University of Southern California, 90% of the employees in the retail stores in the next ten years will be women. A recently organized Society for Occupational Research, working in cooperation with the Committee on Guidance and Placement of the 122 Kiwanis clubs of the California-Nevada district, has just established headquarters on the campus of the University of Southern California, with conference rooms and a library. The society has adopted the "Bennett Plan" for vocational guidance, named for Dr. G. Vernon Bennett of the School of Education of the University of Southern California, who founded the society. The plan, beginning with the junior high school, provides for occupational exploration for students covering a period of three years, with a period of counseling, training and placement covering four or five years, including senior high school and junior college. According to the society, it takes at least three years for a boy to explore the 24 occupational possibilities which he should examine before making a final occupational choice. Methods of examination include (1) hearing a teacher describe the range of possibilities within an "occupational family"; (2) demonstration and dramatization of type activities; (3) motion picture of all phases of the occupation; (4) visits to factories, stores, offices, courthouses hospitals etc.; (5) participation in selected activities in school shop or office. E. T. Robinson is president of the new society for Occupational Research; 29 educators comprise its present membership. A new department of oriental studies is to be opened at the University of course in history of Chinese culture, and lectures on main currents in Chinese and Japanese literature. FIGS IN TARIFF BILL Figs will receive the rates granted them by the House due to reconsideration by the Senate Finance Committee, according to a wire received by T. C. Tucker, chairman of the Growers' Tariff League. Mr. Tucker, through long distance telephone conversation with Washington, found out just what had happened to figs and set what machinery he could control into motion to secure a reconsideration from the Senate Finance Committee. The result is reflected in a wire from Washington which states that the committee agreed to reconsider and on motion of Senator Shortridge approved five cents on figs fresh, dried or in brine and forty per cent ad valorem on others as fixed in the House tariff bill. BADGERS' REUNION All who ever lived in Wisconsin are invited to meet for the great picnic reunion all day Saturday August 24th, 1929, in Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles. Col. Frank H. True, president Mutual 5181, will be in charge. Come as early as you can and spend the day with friends. Registers and headquarters for each county will help you find the old neighbors.

One day of the exposition, September 1st, will be United Commercial Travelers' day, and traveling salesmen throughout California are being asked to come with their latest stories. In fact, there'll be a contest with a cash prize and medal awarded to the traveling salesman who comes through with the best yarn. As traveling salesmen are notorious story-tellers, the competition is expected to be fast and furious. The story-telling contest will take place at a luncheon in the assembly hall at the fair grounds. The luncheon and other features for the day are being arranged by a Sacramento committee consisting of L. C. Hochritt, chairman, C. T. Burrus, B. W. Lavelle and H. R. Rolufa. The winner of the contest will appear before the grandstand crowd in the afternoon and repeat his story over the loud speakers as a part of the program being arranged by Hugh Barrett Dobbs, noted radio artist, for the Shell Happy Time; which means that the story must be suitable for mixed company. The United Commercial Travelers with thirteen councils and a membership of 4,000 in California, are making plans for a big attendance. In addition to having a "day" at the fair, the members are co-operating with the state fair publicity committee by spreading word of the big exposition on their travels through the state.

Briggs estate, a corporation, under a certain deed of trust executed by Emma Mathis and E. O. Mathis, and recorded in Volume 148 of Official BANK OF CO-OPERATIVE PROSPERITY PAY TO THE BLACK CITUS ASSOCIATION FORTY-SIXTH THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY-FIFTH AND TWENTY-FOURTH DIVIDEND Specific comparison shows large-scale cooperative methods bring Exchange members $.43% per box higher returns for their fruit. If the premium demonstrated here were applied to the whole California crop—if the Exchange marketed 100% of it instead of 75% as it does today—the citrus growers of the state would have sold their fruit for $2,924,711.19 more during the last season alone. PRIVATE and auction sales of one of the most efficient and most prosperous remaining "outside" shippers brought 50,589.45 for the past (1928) season. Fruit from the same community sold through the California Fruit Growers Exchange in the same markets, and in nearly cases on the same days, brought 97,774.83. This is a premium for Exchange growers of $47,185.38, in a box for box, made for grade and size for size comparison! In other words, if the "outside" group marketed the same fruit through the Exchange, its members would have received 200.97 a car—or $.43½ a box—more than they actually did. This unusually exact and impartial comparison was made possible when the "outside" group joined the Exchange this season and turned over its complete sales record. It once more offers conclusive proof that California Fruit Growers Exchange, though its unequaled reputation with the public and the trade, is able to get its members the biggest returns that the market will record. If the premium demonstrated here were applied to the whole California crop—if the Exchange marketed 100% of it instead of 75% as it does today—the citrus growers of the state would have sold their fruit for $2,924,711.19 more during the last season alone. To this amount, the Exchange would have added still another premium—because the cost of all Exchange services, including advertising, is less than the marketing cost alone of any other citrus organization.
