Cost of Indigents Shared by State New Law Provides Assistance for Counties in Caring for Needy California counties may affect a financial saving through provisions of the new state law giving aid to the needy aged. Heretofore the total cost of care of indigents outside county homes has been paid by the county government. Last year Orange county spent $54,233 in this manner, according to figures on file with the state department of social welfare. Now the state will share half the burden with the counties for those persons eligible for aid under the new law, which demands that they be over 70, have lived 15 years in California and one year in the county. "Although the counties of California paid out $3,973,965 to indigents during the last fiscal year, the new law does not mean that the state will now assume half of this as its share," said Miss Esther de Tulbeville, chief of the division of aid to the aged. "Much of this sum represents payments to persons ineligible for state aid under the new law. Our estimates now indicate that the law will not cost the state over $600,000 a year. The counties will pay an equal amount as their share." "The counties must still bear their burden of providing for indigents who cannot qualify for the state aid, but the $500,000 paid by the state will aid in easing their charity costs." The state aid law is the outgrowth of years of study by social welfare experts. It is an endeavor to substitute a scientific means of giving relief for the system of alimless "charity" dozes practiced by the counties until a few years ago. Gradually counties are beginning to drift away from this type of relief and substituting services of properly trained and experienced social workers. This trend, combined with the state's efforts in covering the field of those orange and grapefruit Outlook for 1930 In the "Agricultural Outlook for 1930" recently issued by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture, a considerable increase in bearing acreage of Oranges and grapefruit is indicated. Many trees now in production have not reached the age of mature yield and a large increase in production may be expected in years when favorable growing conditions permit, according to the report. Florida oranges are estimated at 195,000 acres, of which about 15 per cent is non-bearing, while Texas has an estimate of 18,900 acres of oranges with 25 per cent non-bearing. Three per cent of 100,500 acres of California Navels is classified as non-bearing and of the 112,200 acres of Valenclas, 20,900 acres, or 19 per cent, are classified as non-bearing. The grapefruit acreage in Florida is estimated at 80,000 acres with 95 per cent of bearing age. Texas with approximately 70 per cent of the acreage of Florida is estimated to have only about 20 per cent of bearing age. The California acreage is 9,000, with a forecast of 11,800 bearing acres for 1932. Porto Rico, with an acreage of 3,800, has not fully recovered from the damage caused by the hurricane of 1928 and it will be another season before they are shipping as heavily as before. The Department of Agriculture stresses the importance of export outlets for the California Valencia crop. This was ably demonstrated in last year's bumper crop when 1,500,000 boxes of Valencias were shipped to foreign ports exclusive of Canada. Good prospects are seen for expansion in the foreign markets for grapefruit. Canned grapefruit is a growing outlet with 957,000 cases shipped in 1929, against 455,100 in 1927. In addition canners put up 202,000 cases of grapefruit juice last year. In view of the prospective large increase in production, especially of grapefruit, indiscriminate planting is not encouraged. The bearing acreage of California lemons has not changed greatly since 1921 and indications are that production is now near the peak.

It is an endeavor to substitute a scientific means of giving relief for the system of aimless "charity" doles practiced by the counties until a few years ago. Gradually counties are beginning to drift away from this type of relief and substituting services of properly trained and experienced social workers. This trend, combined with the state's efforts in covering the field of those over 70 years, promises a millennium in charity work in California. Eventually it is hoped by those engaged in welfare endeavor to have all aid allotted according to a plan based on the actual need of families and individuals who must appeal for help. The first steps toward this goal are being taken under the new law. The 4-H Members Visit Orange Show Approximately one hundred 4-H members and leaders from all parts of Orange County attended the February 4-H tour to the National Orange Show in San Bernardino and to the snow at Big Pines Park last Saturday. To many this was the first visit to an orange show, and the beauty and attractiveness of the exhibits made a great impression on the whole group. Satisfaction was expressed with the showing made by the Orange County exhibit, which was awarded first place in its class. The Orange By-Products Department proved very interested and instructing, as did the display of varied and little known citrus fruits. Needless to say, the whole group visited the large "midway" to the rear of the show. The afternoon was spent at Big Pines Park, where many tobogganed for the first time and had their first snowball fight. Others, more experienced, acted as self-appointed teachers along these lines, with great satisfaction to themselves at least. The cold of the snow and the "sunny California rain" made the two big fireplaces in the big lodge hall most agreeable and the hospitality of those in charge of the camp was greatly appreciated by all. After warming up and drying out the cars started for home and arrived in time for dinner as scheduled, without mishap. The members, leaders and guests on the tour were: Buena Park: Robert Cole, Donald Jones, Calvin McAneer, Robert Thomas and Mr. and Mrs. Lester Schofield.

New Radio Hookup For Farm Bureau Agricultural programs of special interest to Orange County growers will be presented every Monday evening at seven o'clock over KREG, the new radio station at Santa Ana. This will augment the daily program that are broadcast at 12 o'clock, noon each day over KFI, Los Angeles, by the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California. KREG operates on a wave length of 1500 kilocycles. It may be found on the dial just below KFOX of Long Beach. The agricultural broadcasts on the Monday evening program will deal entirely with Orange County farm problems and conditions, according to Farm Advisor Harold E. Waltberg.

A former Hungarian officer wounded in the head fifteen years ago in a battle on the Russian front has not needed any sleep since that time, and is a puzzle to the scientists. It would seem that here at last is the ideal apartment house dweller. Of course they have farm relief in Russia. As soon as the farmer over there raises anything the government relieves him of it. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Felons Kept Busy at Folsom Prison Possibility of Riots and Jail Breaks Cease With Employment of Prisoners Folsom prison—the place where California's "two time losers" are sent—keeps its inmates busy, with no opportunity for them to brood over their confinement. Much is written these days of prisoners plotting riots and jail breaks as they sit for long hours in their cells with nothing to occupy themselves. That problem will never exist at Folsom while Warden Court Smith is allowed to continue his present policies. "We had an experience in 1927 with rioting that we don't want to repeat," he declared. "Inactivity undoubtedly breeds discontent and potential riots in prisons. We have recognized the fact here by an attempt to keep the men occupied so they will have no time to think of trouble making." "About 500 convicts are now at work on a new structure, which will house a cell block, hospital and administration building. In the quarry operated near the prison another large group is busy, with a rock crusher set up after the 1927 riot giving employment to many more." Folsom is commonly known as a place for "bad customers." Characters who are considered too desperate to associate with convicts in San Quentin are sent to Folsom. This situation has created a problem which has taken all the ability and ingenuity officials can throw into administration of Folsom prison. "Agriculture is one of our biggest industries at Folsom," Warden-Smith continued. "Last year we raised 233 tons of hay, enough wheat to feed our chickens and geese and plenty of barley for the horses and mules. The prison cannery canned 32,000 gallon cans of peaches, apricots and berries grown in our orchards." Because of the type of prisoner we have, agricultural work is restricted to They include the mountain counties of Amador and Placer, the Sacramento Valley counties of Butte and Colusa; the San Joaquin Valley county of San Joaquin; Coast counties of Sonoma, San Matee and San Luis Obispo, and the southern counties of Kern and San Diego. Information to be gathered includes the distance of pupils' homes from schools, extent and quality of educational opportunities offered to rural children, provisions for overcoming distance handicaps, what is done to overcome lack of educational opportunities for handicapped children, to what extent non-attendance is due to distance from school, and at what periods in the pupil's life remoteness from school is a deterrent to his attendance. Ghosts at Capitol Ghosts of the past stalk through the gloomy basement of the state capitol building. Two rooms are filled with transcripts of murder cases in California for the past 60 years, where men have been hanged. State law requires a transcript of each case be sent the governor and they are then filed away. Many famous murder cases are included in the collection, which starts in the early 70s of the last century.
