DEEP-ZONE OIL DRILLING LOOMS Dr. J. L. Beebe and C. L. Wilson Reported to Have Purchased Hualde Property, La Habra Indications that a new, deep-zone oil development project near La Habra will be started soon were disclosed this week with the announcement that Dr. J. L. Beebe, well known Anaheim capitalist, and C. L. Wilson Jr. Orange resident, had purchased the Hualde ranch for a total of approximately $230,000, with exchange of properties making a grand total of about $450,000. The deal went into escrow several days ago, and Mr. Wilson late last week stated that he and his associate had taken possession. No definite assurance that the deal, which she admitted had been placed in escrow, would be completed was given by Mrs. Zelda Oxarat, Fillerton realty dealer and a heir in the Hualde estate. Hints that the 30-acre ranch, which adjoins the proven deep-sand field of the Standard Oil company in Coyote hills, had been leased to an oil company received no confirmation from purchasers of the property. Dr. Beebe and Mr. Wilson agreed to turn 320 acres of burren land at Arlington, valued at $120,000, on the deal. Thermometer went to 110 in some places out west and a lot of people joined the church. Husband is Dubbed "Just Gold Digger" "He's just a he-gold-digger, judge," said Mrs. Ella Galnery, at Los Angeles, seeking a divorce from her husband, Frank. "As long as I had money, he was a swell husband. When it ran out, he left me." Saved The Crop William Leo, Ballico farmer, has settled the army worm problem for several of his neighbors. When complaints arose that the worms were threatening to destroy whole plantings of beans, Leo marched his herds of turkeys into the fields. The result was complete annihilation of the menacing worms, the farmers reported. World's Largest The Los Angeles Coliseum, home field of the University of Southern California, will join the ranks of the world's largest stadiums this fall when construction work now being completed will give it a seating capacity of 110,000. Additional work to be started at the completion of the 1930 football season will enlarge the stadium to approximately 150,000—making it the largest in the world. Prior to this season the bowl has had a limit of 88,000. Press dispatch says Coston is giving trucks the right way over other cars on the highways. Down here you don't need to give it to them. They take it. —Macon (Ga.) Telegraph. 4-H Clubs To: By ERIC E.

EASTMAN Assistant Farm Advisor The Annual 4-H Club Convention is to be held this year on the 3rd, fourth, fifth of September at the University Farm, near Davis, as usual. The club leaders from all parts of the county are busy selecting and preening their delegates so that the delegation may bring credit to the county. The selection this year is particularly difficult as the advanced date of the convention makes the selection of the project winners impossible, as most of the projects are still underway. Consequently the boy is being selected who in the opinion of the leader will not only profit from the educational opportunities of the trip himself but who will also bring back to his club the inspiration for more and better club work which he was acquired at the Davis Convention. The delegates are sent to the conference by the Farm Bureau; interested parents and friends furnishing and driving their cars. The inland route is usually taken to the convention and the Coast Route on the return, so that the agriculture of both the interior valleys and the coast route may be observed. Stops are made at places of historic, as well as of agricultural interest. The Davis Convention is one of the outstanding features of the 4-H education-work among rural boys and girls. The tentative list of delegates from Orange County follows: Buena Park, Robert Cole, delegate; Robert Thomas and Robert Smith, alternates. Costa Mesa Club, Clark Sneve, delegate; Phillip Gassel, alternate. Clover Leaf Club of Yorba Linda; Albert Yerington, delegate; Stanton Williams and Gilbert May, alternates. Yorba Linda Councillors: Donald Walker, delegate; Leonard Scott and Robert Carter, alternates. Bullerton Club: Clarence Lotze, delegate; Loren Lutschg and Frank Watts, alternates.

CALIFORNIA CITRUS INDUSTRY IS FACING INCREASING COMPETITION Dana C. King Tells of Sampling South American, Australian and California Oranges and Grapefruit from Isle of Pines While Visiting in Western Canada Recently With the increased production of citrus fruits all over the world, the California citrus industry is facing steadily growing competition in all foreign markets, according to Dana C. King, orange sales manager of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, on his return from a visit to western Canadian markets. “This competition was extremely noticeable in western Canada,” stated Mr. King. “During one day I sampled South American, Australian and California oranges, and grapefruit from the Isle of Pines. Many carloads of oranges and a few cases of lemons are being shipped into these markets from Australian producing sections, and experimental shipments of Navel oranges from Brazil arrived in Vancouver during my stay. Must Meet Competition “California growers can best meet this increasingly stronger competition in foreign markets from other producing areas in the same manner that we have established our marketing in the United States,” stated Mr. King. “This means a continued policy of unified action on the part of all California growers themselves. Proper distribution, standardization, and advertising will do as much to obtain new foreign markets and to hold existing ones as they have done for California growers in the United States,” concluded the Sunkist sales manager. A new factor in shipments of citrus fruit from foreign countries was brought out by a South American shipment which arrived in Vancouver during Mr. King’s visit. The shipment of Navel oranges from South America was of good quality although shipped via the Panama Canal entirely under ventilation. The cargo showed very good condition on arrival with only a 4 per cent decay evidenced. The oranges showed slight aging due to the length of the voyage. Many Factors Two shipments of 5,000 cases each arrived in Vancouver from Australia in good condition, one-half being distributed in British Columbia markets and the other half going to eastern Canadian markets. This shipment of Navel oranges came under refrigeration and arrived in good condition. All of this fruit from foreign producing countries is being shipped to Canadian markets in the standard California package. Another factor in western-Canadian orange distribution is the heavy shipment of Japanese Satsuma oranges which comes into these markets during the Christmas season while in eastern Canadian markets much competition is had from Spanish and Jaffa oranges during the winter months and from South America oranges during the summer.

State Appropriates School Funds Twelve California counties played Santa Claus to the rest of the state in 1928 to the extent of $588,822.11 in the apportionment of state school funds, according to a survey just completed by California Taxpayers' Association of state school aid distribution for 1927-1928, the last year for which reports are published. The survey shows wide discrepancies in the receipts per child. The state appropriates to the state school fund $30 per child in average daily attendance in the state during the next preceding year. This fund is then apportioned to the counties on the basis of $700 for each teacher unit in the county, the number of teachers being ascertained by calculating one teacher for the first thirty-five or less number of pupils in average daily attendance in each district and one additional teacher for each additional thirty-five pupils or fraction thereof in average daily attendance during the next preceding school year. The county then apportions to each district $1400 for each teacher allowed to the district, $700 of the $1400 coming from the state school fund and the additional amount coming from county funds. This distribution, therefore, is not made solely on the pupil basis, about $2 per cent being apportioned on the teacher unit basis. Thus counties with large numbers of small districts where teacher units are small receive a greater amount of state aid than they are equitably entitled to. The twelve counties that received less than $30 per pupil were Alameda, Contra Costa, Fresno, Los Angeles, Orange, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Francisco, San Joaquin, San Mateo and Santa Clara. Their losses varied from $1,619.50 in one county to over a third of a million dollars or $362,949.15 in another. One county received an average of $93.19 per pupil, compared to the $30.00 average, and levied no county or district taxes at all for schools, subsisting entirely on state and Federal funds. Compared to the twelve counties receiving less than $30, forty-six received more. Rules Devised for Concentrate Feeds Seven rules for the compounding of concentrate mixtures for dairy cows have been devised by Prof. W. M. Regan of the Animal Husbandry Division, and G. E. Gordon, Dairy Extension Specialist, of the University of California. The principal desirable characteristics of a good quality, a minimum of undigestible material, variety, bulk and an optimum of such minerals as common salt, calcium and phosphorus. These rules follow: When a protein roughage is being fed the concentrate mixture should contain not less than 250 pounds of digestible crude protein per ton. For supplementing a mixed roughage the minimum of digestible crude protein per ton of concentrates should be 320 pounds. Not less than 400 pounds of digestible protein should be included in each ton of concentrates designed to supplement a carbonaceous roughage. The minimum of total digestible nutrients should be 1400 pounds per ton of feed. To insure the proper bulk each concentrate mixture should weigh approximately 32 pounds per bushel. The feeds comprising the concentrate mixture should be derived from at least four plant sources, no one of which shall be present to the extent of more than 75 percent. Each mixture should contain 20 pounds of common salt and 20 pounds of steamed bone meal. For carbonaceous roughage an extra 20 pounds of calcium carbonate should be added. Concentrates are necessary, Professor Regan and Gordon point out in the ration of any dairy cow producing more than 200 pounds of butterfat each year. Every cow should be fed concentrates in proportion to her butterfat production. Delegates Go To Convention President Jack Gledhill and Delegate Walter Hammael of the Anaheim 20-30 club left Thursday to attend the state convention at Sacramento, August 29 to September 1. Hammael goes in the place of Vice-president Clinton Griggs, who was unable to attend. At the meeting last Monday evening in the Elks clubhouse, Sheriff Sam Jernigan was the principal speaker. The sheriff brought "Noodles" Fagan, well known vaudeville entertainer who "makes up" humorous verses about members of the audience during his act, kept the members of the club in an uproar. Mrs. Orilla Bigelow's string orchestra furnished musical entertainments as much to obtain new foreign markets and to hold existing ones as they have done for California growers in the United States," concluded the Sunkist had from Spanish and Jaffa oranges during the winter months and from South America oranges during the summer. "Consider Your Future" McCORMAC SCHOOL of Business and Secretarial Training 706 N. Main St. Santa Ana, California Phone 8610 One county received an average of $93.19 per pupil, compared to the $30.00 average, and levied no county or district taxes at all for schools, subsisting entirely on state and Federal funds. Compared to the twelve counties receiving less than $30, forty-six received more. Commenting on the above findings, N. Bradford Trenham, secretary of the educational commission of California Taxpayers' Association, says: "California was hailed as a leader in educational finance when the present method of apportioning elementary school funds was instituted in 1921. Since then it has been amply demonstrated that the system is extremely inequitable and tends to defeat its own purpose. "Students of educational administration and finance do not find fault with the principle of equalization of educational opportunity up to the minimum program. In fact, they encourage it. But a proper system would not accentuate already existing inequalities. A proper system would tend to iron out inequalities. The system in force frequently takes funds from already poor counties and adds thereto more fortunate counties in point of taxable resources per capita. "This is true because some counties of small wealth in proportion to population are penalized in favor of other counties with high per capita valuations. Furthermore, the efficient counties with a lesser number of small districts are penalized in their programs toward desirable consolidation. "Through study of state school finance and organization in California convinces one that school officials should seek a more equitable distribution of state funds and a more scientific organization of school districts before they ask the taxpayer to provide new sources of revenue or any additional revenue from present sources."

THE EDITORIAL CIRCUIT RIDER (A symposium of editorial comment from California Newspapers) Far removed from the drought areas of the mid-west, California editors neverhelless have evinced deep interest in the situation, judging from editorials in newspapers of this state. "Dreadful as is the drought and the devastating effects of prolonged high temperatures over wide areas in the central states," declares the Pasadena Star-News, "yet the situation is relieved much by the splendid rally of the federal and state governments and transportation and other private interests to give substantial aid to the drought sufferers without delay." "It isn't merely a question of helping the farmer, either," according to the Woodland Democrat. "It's a question of helping the whole country through the farmer. If he goes under, business in general goes under. The best use for surplus funds right now is neither in Wall Street nor in the Chicago grain pit, but in the agricultural regions, in the form of a reviving shower of cash." The Red Bluff News considers the effect of the drought in reducing surpluses, a phase that interests many editors, when it says: "As is true in every case when crops in certain sections are stricken, the loss in one place is offset, or partially so, by gains, in another. While all deplore the drought, it must be recognized that it is reducing the surplus crops which meant low prices." "A bumper crop this year would have resulted in demoralized markets, and a dangerous situation both for farming and general business," agrees the AlBut however serious the situation, it is no worse and indeed not so bad as economic disasters through which other nations an dthe United States have passed before," adds the San Francisco News. "While the damage is heavy and will entail a hardship on farming interests, on top of other conditions adverse to agricultural profit, yet all such catastrophes end sooner or later, and the rich agricultural regions of the midwest soon will be on their feet again." optimistically concurs the Porterville Evening Recorder. Had this drought come in Russia or China dire results would have followed in loss of life from starvation, but the Pittsburg Post-Dispatch notes that: "The drought forcefully emphasizes the amazing strides the world has made in the elimination of starvation due to crop failures. There was a time in the United States when such a drought as this would have been accompanied by heavy loss of life because transportation facilities were inadequate. Today farmers in the affected areas are able turas Plain Dealer. "The general status of agriculture will improve as a result, though we must admit that the drought spells hardship for many individuals and for many regions that have suffered severely." to obtain all the food they need merely by ordering it delivered." Contrast between California's climate and that of the drought areas was remarked by many editors, the Riverside Press being typical when it asserts: "Of course the damage to farm crops has been the most serious result of this long spell of heat and drought; but the discomfort and actual suffering have added greatly to the gloom and depression that have resulted from the financial loss. Compare these conditions with the Riverside weather of today and be thankful." 666 Relieves a Headache or Neuralgia in 80 minutes, checks a Cold the first day, and checks Malaria in three days. 666 also in Tablets.
