ON THE LOOKOUT in and about Anaheim with Lowell E. Jessen Opinions of strangers in a community, especially when expressions are confined to the city welfare, often are amusing, occasionally refreshing, and sometimes interesting. By far the larger quantity fall in the first category, and it is with this fact in mind that the writer for the time being, adheres to observations. This naturally includes some opinions, but those viewpoints are subject to change with wider acquaintance with Anaheim residents and familiarity with their problems. To one who has been reared in a land of small farms, grazing territory and coal mines in numerous nearby mountains, and then forsook his "stamping grounds" for the glamour of commerce and metropolitan life, Anaheim has a definite soil appeal. Somehow, one feels that in this northern section of Orange county, famed for its agricultural lands, he is returning to a community where he can be closer to nature and that instinct which has prompted pioneers to wage war in order to get their share of farming land. This closeness to farming is my first impression. Of course, Anaheim is a business center, but its back country and support comes chiefly from the soil. Wherever farming forms the center of a country's interests, one can depend upon finding an industrious, thrifty and usually progressive community. That's my first opinion. But the cohesiveness of things commercial and farming in this city seems to bear out that viewpoint. One sometimes judges the business of a community by the number of business houses in it. That's a wrong conclusion, because not all business houses are prosperous, as he thought. the city is shown by the individual prosperity of its residents and the people living adjacent to it. After all, that's a mere surface observation, but it is an indication that at heart the community is builted well and firmly. There's nothing like a solid foundation for future success, and Anaheim's present status indicates me that the city's future health and wealth is assured. Business Trend Points Upward F. L. Potter, resident manager of the Stevens-Van Engelen Company, this week resumed active charge of the local store following attendance last week at the managers' meeting held in Salt Lake City, Utah. Mr. Potter said that, after discussing the apparent lull in business conditions throughout the country, he believed and had evidence to show that general financial and working conditions are better now than last month. Trade of the local store would verify this conclusion. "Indications clearly point to increased trade as Easter nears, and evidence that business conditions will be back to normal, and even above periods of other years, is on every hand. Report of our managers at the conference in Salt Lake bore out observations, reported by Secretary of Labor Davis last week," he said. While in Salt Lake last Thursday I experienced a genuine, old-fashioned snow-storm. It was the first one I had been in for years and while it seemed somewhat of a novelty and brought back many boyhood memories, I perfer to live in Southern California and enjoy the balmy sunshine that mark's Anaheim's climate."

Cost of Producing Acre of Walnuts One Ton Per Acre Gives Grower Large Profit The walnut grower who can produce a ton of nuts of good quality on each acre, at reasonable costs, need have no qualms about the future of the industry for his particular grove. This was one of the outstanding opinions voiced Friday at the annual meeting of the walnut growers' department of the Orange County Farm bureau. Carlyle Thorpe, general manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, told the 100 growers assembled that they could expect a $500,000 distribution on cull nuts in time for the April tax payments. He also said that there was a possibility of another payment before the final distribution in September. There are now 48,000 bags of the 1929 crop handled by the association which remain unsold. Thorne said pointing out that sales are being made at the rate of 720 to 750 bags daily. The fact that a large part of the nuts were handled through 90-day trade acceptances has prevented earlier distribution of payments, he said. W.B. Hooper, walnut specialist for the extension service of the University of California, expressed the belief that production of a ton to the acre, with good quality and reasonable production costs, would keep the growers on the right side of the ledger. He pointed out that cost of production studies in Orange, Los Angeles, and Ventura county groves showed that high costs for cultivation and water were not necessary to produce good crops. Basing his opinions on past experience and on factors influencing the walnut industry, Dr.H.E.Erdman, division of agricultural economics of the University of California stated that market conditions for walnuts for the next few years do not appear so rosy as they have been in the past. He said that following the war of 1812 and the Civil war there had been market war veteran, and member of the Men's Bible class and is a regular attendant at church. He owns property at Fullerton and Garden Grove and is strong for the enforcement of all laws on the statute book. Mrs. H. H. Easton, Mrs. J. S. Sheridan and Miss Mary McLure, members of Mother Colony chapter, D. A. R. left on Tuesday to attend the state convention of Daughters of the American Revolution being held in San Diego this week.

Buys Out Brother Thomas Kemp, well known young merchant of Anaheim and a member of the newly-formed 20-30 Club, has purchased the interests of his brother, Ralph, in the Kemp Bros. Drug Store at Los Angeles and Center Streets. Mr. Kemp has been in business in this city for eight years, following his graduation from the University of Southern California. Calvary Baptist Church The same principle holds in tractors, the Iowa State College and University of California engineers have proven with dyngometer tests. As much as 60 per cent of the power of a wheel tractor is lost on loose soil, according to the official publication of the American Society of Agricultural Engineers. "Caterpillar" learned the uphill wheel handicap in California, when wheels as wide as 18 feet on each side for a total width of 36 feet were built to keep the tractors on top the ground. Then the wheel was flattened out fore and aft for a track that laid on top the ground for the tractor to travel over. It would take a wheel over 50 feet high to give the ground contact enjoyed by a little "Caterpillar" tractor says F.E.Sitton, local salesman of Shepherd Tractor & Equipment Co., "Caterpillar" dealers. Basing his opinions on past experience and on factors influencing the walnut industry, Dr.H.E.Erdman division of agricultural economics of the University of California stated that market conditions for walnuts for the next few years do not appear so rosy as they have been in the past. He said that following the war of 1812 and the Civil war there had been market slumps, preceded by periods of prosperity, and that it appeared that the World war was to be followed now by a similar condition. Walnuts are not alone in this situation, however, for other commodities will be affected also. Farm Advisor Harold E.Wahlberg, of Orange county, talked on the costs involved in changing from walnuts to citrus. He said that, on the basis of the 10-year average of $3.35 to the growers per packed box of valencia oranges, and a figure of 17 cents per pound for walnuts, it would take 13 years for a citrus orchard to catch up with the income from the walnut orchard it replaced, on the basis of 1200 pounds of nuts to the acre. When a walnut groove is producing 1800 pounds or more of nuts to the acre it will not be found economical to change to citrus, Wahlberg said. Wheels Always Travel Uphill On Farm Lands Agricultural engineers have proved that wheels are always travelling uphill on farm land, an dthe softer the ground the steeper the hill. Notice a team of horses pulling a load on a pavement when they get onto ground. The softer the ground the more the wheels sink and the heavier the load. In other words, the team must exert increased power to pull the load "up the hill" caused by the sinking of the wheels into the soil. On plowed ground it is the worst.

Engineers at the University of California gave the "Caterpillar" tread the egg test a year ago during the non-stop world's record run of the "Caterpillar" Twenty. An egg was buried in front of the tractor tread and covered to the depth of one inch. The egg was unharmed by the passing over it of the "Caterpillar" Twenty. The same engineers tested the horsepower needed to pull the tractor over plowed ground and found it required but two horsepower to move it once it was started. In other words, the "Caterpillar" wasn't wasting its power moving over the soil but had practically all of it for useful work.

In Orange county F. J. Was, First National Bank, Santa Ana, has been appointed "key banker" for the county in this cooperation. The Future Farmers is an organization made-up of high school boys who intend following farming as a life work. In the California Bankers Association is the Agricultural Committee, which will be the Association's contact with the Future Farmers. "This is one of the most encouraging signs of progress the Future Farmers have yet had," declared Julian A. McPhee, chief of the state bureau of agricultural education. "It means that the young farmer and the banker will be come acquainted and discuss their problems in a way that was quite unknown in the last generation. In those days there probably was not the cooperative spirit between the two that we anticipate will come as a result of the new plan." Teachers of agriculture throughout California have been instructed to visit the "key banker" in their county. The local program of vocational agricultural education is to be explained to the banker and he will aid in any way possible in furthering the program. "The Future Farmers are making real money in their projects and are depositing that money with the bankers, so that this cooperative bargain between the two is not one-sided." McPhee said. "It is not at all uncommon for the boys to make several hundred dollars in a season with a crop or livestock project. They learn their methods at school and then go home and put them" First Hand Data For Blue Book Secretary of State Jordan Coming to Orange County for Information To gather first-hand data for the new edition of the California Blue Book, Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan will make a personal tour of Orange county some time this spring or summer, it has been announced at his offices. Jordan is now compiling information for the Blue Book, which he plans to be a virtual encyclopedia of California. It will be the first book of this nature, as far as he is able to determine, that has ever been published. In order to assemble the facts required for the publication, Jordan, accompanied by his statistician, Walter Stutler, is mapping a tour that will take him into ever nook and cranny of California. When completed, the Blue Book will tell of each of the 58 counties and some 600 municipalities in the state. "We are depending upon chambers of commerce and other civic bodies to aid us in this work," said Jordan. "The volume will be large enough to give a comprehensive and thorough description of every county and its communities, their resources, schools, highways and points of advantage to the homeseketer." "As a publicity medium, the value of such a book cannot be estimated in dollars and cents." Arrangements are under way to have part of the copy in the hands of state printer late this summer, with the hope that the work may be completed and bound before the close of the 1931 session of the state legislature. "This book will be the fulfillment of a lifetime dream, as far as I am concerned," said Jordan. "For many years I have visualized a book that could be given worldwide circulation, telling the unvarnished facts of California. I would have it go into every public library in the nation, accessible to prospective settlers and persons seeking the truth about the Golden State." Teachers of agriculture throughout California have been instructed to visit the "key banker" in their county. The local program of vocational agricultural education is to be explained to the banker and he will aid in any way possible in furthering the program. "The future Farmers are making real money in their projects and are depositing that money with the bankers, so that this cooperative bargain between the two is not one-sided." McPhee said. "It is not at all uncommon for the boys to make several hundred dollars in a season with a crop or livestock project. They learn their methods at school and then go home and put them in use. "Now with the bankers cooperating, the boys will be able to get instruction in real business methods and complete both sides of knowledge required to carry on their chosen profession." "We are hoping that lectures and visits to the schools by the bankers will be feasible as part of this cooperative work." Riches of Nation The grand total wealth of the United States is estimated at $360,000,000,000. Included in this estimate are tangible physical assets only. Credits and currency are not included. Three-fourths of the total wealth of the Nation is in "fixed assets," devoted to the use of dwelling, or industrial, or transportation enterprises. The per capita wealth, in the United States is $3000. On a per capita basis, Nevada is the wealthiest state in the Union, with each man, woman and child in the state having an average wealth of $7338. California has a greater per capita than the Nation as a whole, its figure being $3725. While nominally the wealth of the United States has almost doubled since 1912, yet when the decreased purchasing power of the dollar is reckoned, the actual increase in wealth since 1912 is only about 37 per cent. But even that is a huge increase. The wealth producing activities of the United States are without parallel in any nation in the world. This country's natural resources are so stupendous, and the energies of its people are so enormous and so diversified, that the logical result is the production of riches on a scale never before known in the history of mankind.
