Farm Buildings Quite Inadequate Director of Agriculture Points Out Need for Better Housing Contented cows and happy hogs are considered essential to every modern farm—and they usually are in a joyous mood while roaming the fields in daytime hours. But what happens to their temperaments when they are tucked away for the night in their dwellings? There's the story, so to speak. State Director of Agriculture George H. Hecke believes that many farm buildings are inadequate to maintain this pleasant frame of mind among rural animals. In fact he is cooperating with the "Farm Structures Research Survey" to determine just what can be done to promote happiness for animals when they are indoors. "This may sound foolish to the average farmer," said Hecke, "but he should remember that farm structures represent the largest single item of investment he has, aside from his land. In the United States it amounts to about $11,750,000,000." "Suitability of farm structures to their uses is closely related to agricultural economic welfare. Only recently a local bank took over the management of a large dairy. Study of the equipment of the plant revealed that the inadequacy of the buildings was almost entirely responsible for the farmer's failure in running the place. "Research has proven that milk production is affected by barn temperature; that egg production depends largely upon the comfort of the fowl; and that hogs grow faster and are fed more economically with self feeders." "Aside from the comfort of the animals, the farmer is vitally affected by the manner in which he stores his corn and small grains. Good storage is an important factor in the orderly and profitable marketing of horticultural products." The farmer's wife might well take an interest in the structures survey. Hecke declared, for beauty and harmony of Precious Metals Found In State Gold and Silver Taken From Mines In Large Quantities The days of '49 are gone, and with them the romance that surrounded California on its entrance into statehood—but production of precious metals is still "big business" in the state, proven by the latest report of the state division of mines and mining. Tourists, fruit and industries are the headliners these days in California, but far back in the mountains men are still pursuing that eternal quest into the earth for wealth. The returns are only a nominal percentage of those "boom" years, when history was made in the Mother Lode region, but it is a steady income that surprises many. Gold stills leads, as it always has, in the total value of metals taken from the ground during 1928. Showing a slight decrease over 1927, it amounted to $10,785,315. Yuba county led the state in production, with $2,304,377 reported. Amador county is second, and Nevada and Sacramento counties third and fourth. Gold dredges search for the metal in Yuba and Sacramento counties, while Amador and Nevada counties go down into the earth for their share. Two of the mines in California's mountain districts are numbered among the deepest in the world. Next on the list of precious metals is copper. In 1928 California produced 25,162,304 pounds, valued at $3,623,360. Plumas county, high in the Sierra, was far ahead of its nearest competitor in output, registering 21,141,121 pounds, worth $3,044,321. Shasta county is second and Trinity county third, with 3,049,960 and 660,147 pounds, respectively. Silver is found generally throughout the state and the 1928 production was worth $865,081, estimated on a basis of 1,478,881 ounces. But silver is largely a by-product in California, from its association with copper, lead, and gold ores.

"Aside from the comfort of the animals, the farmer is vitally affected by the manner in which he stores his corn and small grains. Good storage is an important factor in the orderly and profitable marketing of horticultural products." The farmer's wife might well take an interest in the structures survey. Hecke declared, for beauty and harmony of buildings is being considered. The scheme of getting the houses to procure the most advantageous effect probably does not occur to the farmer—but the women of the house can appreciate the beauty which may easily be attained and still have the structures an economic asset to the establishment. The day of the unsightly farm house and surrounding buildings is doomed—with resultant gain to the farmer in dollars and cents. Conditions Change For Incorporators Old-time Hostility Wiped Out By New Enactments For 50 years Delaware and Nevada have been deriving large revenue by furnishing liberal incorporation facilities to California business enterprises. Meantime California incorporated concerns have had to face the competition of their more favored rivals. But times have changed, and with action taken by the last legislature to liberalize our state incorporation laws, a steadily increasing number of companies are forming under California law, according to Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan. The trouble began back in 1879 when a constitutional convention met to revise the California constitution. Widespread hostility to corporations existed then and the restrictions of our present constitution reflects this fear. Year by year the hampering restrictions have become more burdensome to business. Although a sweeping revision of our whole incorporation law, both in the constitution and the statutes, has been proposed in a constitutional amendment to be voted on by the people in 1930, the last legislature amended many existing code sections to ease the situation for business. A partial list of the more important changes has been prepared for the United Press by the California Law Review, as follows: 1. Useless requirement that a majority of the incorporators must be residents of the state is eliminated. 2. Limitation of 50 years upon term of existence of corporation given up. They are now given indeterminate existence until dissolution, voluntary or proposed in a constitutional amendment to be voted on by the people in 1930, the last legislature amended many existing code sections to ease the situation for business. A partial list of the more important changes has been prepared for the United Press by the California Law Review, as follows: 1. Useless requirement that a majority of the incorporators must be residents of the state is eliminated. 2. Limitation of 50 years upon term or existence of corporation given up. They are now given indeterminate existence until dissolution, voluntary or otherwise. 3. Requirement of specifying city or town as principal place of business given up. Designation of county where principal office located is sufficient. 4. Sections as to non-par shares consensed and revised. Requirement of a paid in "stated capital" of $500 as condition of right to begin business abanened. 5. Directors need no longer be stockholders. 6. Liability of directors for making unauthorized dividends or distributions of capital to shareholders is limited to wilful or negligent violations and even in such instances only to amount of loss sustained by shareholders or creditors. 7. Meetings of directors or shareholders may be held in or out of state. 8. Provision made for merger and consolidation of corporations generally filling strange gaps in state laws which formerly only provided for consolidation of banks, railroads, mining and certain non-profit organizations. MARRIED AGAIN Being married is no new experience for either Charles H. McDonle, or Mrs. Matilda Ann Loyd, 59. The couple were married at Redding with McDonle holding a record of four previous matrimonial attempts and Mrs. Lloyd having two former husbands. McDonle is a retired engineer of Chico and will make his home there with his bride. ANAHEIM GAZETTE State Surveys Mental Hygiene Abnormalities In Children To Be Cared for by Board of Health School children of Anaheim will be included in a state-wide mental hygiene survey sponsored by the state department of education. Vierling Kersey, state superintendent of public instruction, has announced selection of Miss Zeelah Hyan, child psychologist in the state department of education, to begin the work. "Denilquency and metal disturbances among school children comprises one of our greatest problems," declared Kersey. "It is in these adolescent years that preventive work can be done, to avert tragedies with which we are all too familiar. During the past two years we can point to at least three cases in California, where hideous crimes were committed by minors. Each of these cases showed definitely a period in years when symptoms of this approaching abnormality might have been observed and checked." Determination of these characteristic tendencies toward delinquency or mental disturbance in school children will be the chief aim of the survey. Once they are found and studied, it is hoped they will form a basis for providing remedial school environment. "A far reaching program of education for teachers, so that they may recognize and understand these tendencies, is contemplated as a result of the survey," Kersey stated. "Through the teachers we hope to discover the children who are living under abnormal conditions in home life. Then a counteracting influence will be built up and through the schools we hope to surround such children with normal life experiences." "Cooperation of parents will be a vital part of this phase in our survey. Educators must come into closer contact with actual home conditions and with parents." Value of recreation as a means of promoting better mental hygiene among children is stressed by Kersey. Play of Farm Engineering California leads all the states in the amount of work being done in agricultural engineering, Bureau of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, by H. B. Walker, senior agricultural engineer, director of the survey. Walker now is professor of agricultural engineering in the University of California and head of the agricultural engineering division. A committee is now investigating the adaptability of farm machinery to California conditions, according to Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahberg. That committee was in Orange County recently to examine cultivation tools being manufactured in this county. The California Farm Bureau Federation has urged the production and use of farm tools that have been specially made for local crop and soil conditions. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH "My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expedition is from him." This declaration of David's confidence in God constitutes the Golde Text in the Lesson-Sermon on "Soul and Body" Sunday in Christian Science Churches, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. Among the Bible texts in the Lesson-Sermon are these verses from Luke relating to Christ Jesus: "And he sailed unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on—and seek not yet what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind—But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you." A correlative passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" sites these words of Mary Baker Eddy: "If we follow the command of our Master, Take no thought for your life; we shall never depend on bodily conditions, structure, or economy, but we shall be masters of the body, dictate its teras, and form and control it with Truth." Vegetable Crops Meet Upset Unfavorable Weather Conditions Throughout State Decreases Output Abnormal temperatures for October caused considerable upset in California truck crop conditions, according to the semi-monthly report of the California Cooperative Crop Service. Lettuce maturity has been speeded up by the warm weather so that a good portion of the intended December crop has matured. Worm damage and heat has affected young plantings in the Imperial Valley. Tomato production, which has been far behind normal for the season, was rapidly increased in the northern section by October weather. It is quite evident that the canned pack will be short of anticipated tonnage, and canners are buying ripe stock from green fruit shippers. The southern crop has yet shown no indication of late blight, putting those growers in a better position now than they have been for the past two years, with practically a clear field in California. Cauliflower production is forecast at 3,800 cars. Most fields where water is available are in fair condition, but the Colma section is suffering from lack of rain and fog. Intended acreage of spring celery shows a slight decrease compared with previous years. Excellent growth during the past month is reported from the Delta region. San Diego county has not been benefited by the warm weather and early stock will be of only ordinary quality. Venice celery at present is very poor quality. TEACHERS INSTITUTES Teachers' institutes now meeting throughout California are finding four topics of general interest which seem to appeal to them, according to state superintendent of public instruction Vierling Kersey. They are: 1. Education and world peace. 2.
