CORY, Assistant Farm Advisor Dairies in the Cowtesting Association of the Farm Bureau keeping monthly production records have shown a steady improvement in average butterfat production since the beginning of the year in September. Each month has shown an average increase of from 2 to 5 pounds of butterfat per cow over the corresponding month of last year. February marked the middle of the year and if the same increase is shown for the next six months as took place the first, the average year's production will be boosted from 24 to 60 pounds of butterfat per cow over that of last year. Indicates Real Progress This indicates progress in dairy improvement, as dairymen in the Cowtesting Association averaged 160 pounds of butterfat last year over the average for the state. Dairymen are of the opinion that better feeding practices, closer culling and the use of stock bred for high production are the factors responsible for bringing this increase about. The February cowtesting report showed 18 herds tested, having a total of 1259 cows. They averaged 837 pounds of milk and 35.5 pounds of butterfat. The February average for 1930 was 31.6 pounds of butter fat, 437 cows produced over 40 pounds of butterfat and 58 head were culled out. Reports on Competition In the monthly cow competition classes, the placing was as follows: High Herd Average Pounds Pounds Under 36 Cows: Milk Butterfat I. A. C. Murdy, Garden Grove almost exactly the sum originally set aside for the Boulder Dam project. But this is a somewhat different kind of undertaking. In the Sacramento and San Joquin Valleys the State has about 14,000,000 acres of arable land, of which, in 1925, about 4,000,000 were under irrigation. Experts say that with proper storage facilities about 6,000-000 more could be brought under intensive cultivation. Over the prospect of adding the wealth of these fertile lands to his State, Hoover the engineer and California has ever been enthusiastic. "If we were to scan the whole nation for the greatest opportunity of national development," he told a Sacramento audience back in the days when he was Secretary of Commerce, "we would find that it lies right here in the great central valley of California." A commission subsequently appointed by President Hoover and ex-Governor Young tentatively set the entire cost of the enterprise at $374,000,000. The very establishment of that commission was evidence of the Federal Government's interest. Navigation and flood-control are words to conjure with when it comes to rousing the jinks that guard the Federal Treasury. Mr. Hoover is himself on record as favoring Federal expenditure on both these accounts. The question is how for Congress will be willing to go in plowing back into the soil of California her ancient gold. Another question it must answer is this: To what extent, and how speedily, is it desirable to add to the area of land now under cultivation? President Hoover's reply is that it will take twenty-five years to bring this new tract into bearing, and that then it will be needed. Vistors Throng New Loly-Jensen Store The only thing that went wrong with the opening of the new Loly & Jensen jewelry store on Center street last Saturday, was the number of admiring visitors was so large that the store was hardly large enough to accommodate all. The store was thronged all day and through the evening, the number of visitors being estimated at 1,000. It During a residence of 53 years in Orange County I have watched with some degree of solicitude the gradually lowering of the water level over the Coastal Plain area. Col. S. H. Finley, director for Santa Ana on the Metropolitan Water District Board and Secretary of Board, says Colorado River water now urgently needed. Col. S. H. Finley, director for Santa Ana on the Metropolitan Water District Board and a pioneer resident of Orange County, today declared that all Southern California faces the imperative necessity of bringing in Colorado River water as the only means of preventing a serious water shortage. "During a residence of 53 years in Orange County I have watched with some degree of solicitude the gradually lowering of the water level over the Coastal Plain area." The February cowtesting report showed 1259 cows. They averaged 837 pounds of milk and 35.5 pounds of butterfat. The February average for 1930 was 31.6 pounds of butterfat. 437 cows produced over 40 pounds of butterfat and 58 head were culled out.

Aliso Dairy 1797 78.4 Asks for Help On Water Problem Water means almost as much to California as to the States haunted by drought. Economies and even politics have their roots deep down in the watertable, says an editorial in the New York Times. The cities of Southern California have sometimes stood in fear of a water famine. Problems of water supply long troubled San Francisco. The farmers of the great central valley of California have done wonders with irrigation since the beginning of the century; they think they could do more still if floods were better controlled and amply stored. What the State lacks in natural resources she has partly made up in human resources; energy, engineering talent and an influential delegation at Washington—not to speak of an adopted son for President. Her Representatives in Congress are a specially determined band. Having secured the benefits of Boulder Dam for Southern California, they are now bent on having the Federal Government do something equally handsome for the northern half of the State. Our Watch-Tower correspondent reports that when Congress meets next December there will be presented to it a request for aid in the shape of a loan of $160,000,000, or as much thereof as the Federal Treasury can spare to help finance an enlarged plan for the development and conservation of the State's water resources. Vistors Throng New Loly-Jensen Store The only thing that went wrong with the opening of the new Loly & Jensen jewelry store on Center street last Saturday, was the number of admiring visitors was so large that the store was hardly large enough to accommodate all. The store was thronged all day and through the evening, the number of visitors being estimated at 1,000. It was "an opening as was an opening." The members of the firm received congratulations on the beauty of their new store, which has been greatly changed and an entirely new stock brought in since Barney Hirshman occupied the same room with a similar line of merchandise. A feature of the opening was the great quantity of flowers showered upon the firm from individuals and business concerns of the city, who turned the store into a bower of beautiful spring blossoms. Cartwrights Move Into Local Home Mr., and Mrs. F. C. Cartwright and children, Robert, Evelyn and Ruth, this week were comfortably housed at 113 Mills Drive, following their moving here from Long Beach last week. Mr. Cartwright is manager of and one of the new owners of the Valencia laundry. "Business the first week has been better than we had a right to expect," Mr. Cartwright said. "We are progressing slowly, with the idea of completely equipping our plant for larger volume, but watching closely to see that every one of our customers receives every service and attention to which he is entitled." The laundry opened Monday, following its purchase from Mr. Huntington two weeks ago. ESCAPED PRISONER "REGUSTED" Arthur C. Hudlin, a prisoner on the county chain gang escaped while at work in Irving Park, Saturday afternoon. He fled on foot for many weary miles over mountain roads and was as "regusted" as much as Andy Brown ever was, when he arrived six miles east of El Toro and was greeted by deputy sheriffs. He had freedom for a little more than an hour; the sheriff spreading a net for him as soon as his escape became known. He was serving a year on probation and will now probably have to serve a term at San Quentin. DUST MOP STARTS FIRE A dust mop, hanging too close to a water heater, started a small fire in the house of C.-F. Pierpoint, 221 East Ellsworth, Friday morning, but the blaze was extinguished before any damage termined band.

By coincidence, that happens to be east of El Toro and was greeted by deputy sheriffs. He had freedom for a little more than an hour, the sheriff spreading a net for him as soon as his escape became known.

Believe It or Not—They had never seen a cow The Los Angeles Board of Education is now taking Bossie and her calf for a ride—a ride around to all the schools in the city—and all because a recent survey disclosed that there were thousands of city school children who had never seen a cow—a calf or a churn. The caravan is shown here at its first stop. Christian Science Lesson-Sermon "Substance" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon Sunday in all branches of The Mother Church. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. One of the Scripture selections includes the following verses from Matthew: "And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals. But Jesus said unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. He said, Bring them hither to me. And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude." A correlative passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "In the scientific relation of God to man, we find that whatever blesses one blesses all, as Jesus showed with the loaves and the fishes—Spirit, not matter, being the source of supply." City Departments Reports to Council Numerous departmental reports for the month of February were filed with the City Council when it met Tuesday night. The report of Chief of Police Bouldin showed a total of 374 night lodgers were accommodated at the city jail in February. A total of 38 arrests were made which were itemized as follows: Intoxication, 11; possession of liquor, 10; vagrancy, 2; disturbing the peace, 3; investigation, 2; Intoxication and driving, 1; petit larceny, 1; adultery, 1; for other departments, 7. The report of Miss Elizabeth Calnon Anaheim librarian, showed February expenses totalling $1573.49, with totalled $3000—suffered by property occupied by a junk yard, at 221 East Santa Ana street. Frank Taunsch, city recorded, in his report showed that he had tried a total of 25 cases in February, collecting fines totalling $336.50. V. W. Hannum, city electrician, collected fees totalling $61.75 for issuance of electrical permits, he reported. Sale of business licenses in February netted the city $201, while $5.25 was collected from the sale of dog licences. Demands were checked and approved for $17,423.13 from the general fund and for $749.16 from the improvement fund—a total of $18,172.13 from the general fund and $749.16 from the improvement fund—a total of $18,172.29. A reapportionment of assessments for recent improvements on West Center and Lincoln avenue has been ordered by the council, after a decision that the city should take over an additional $5,100 of the cost. This will reduce the cost to individual property owners about one-half.
