Walnut Growers Will Make Tests Leave On Tour July 19 for Moisture Studies and Recommendations Starting at John Adams walnut orchard near Orange next Tuesday afternoon, July 19 at 2 o'clock, a tour of typical walnut orchards has been scheduled by the agricultural extension service to make soil moisture tests and recommendations for irrigation at this time of the year. The question of thinning mature walnut orchards to obtain better production and quality nuts will also be discussed. Methods of thinning orchards to allow more light in the trees will be shown in orchards visited during the tour. The treatment of Melaxuma disease, which has been quite prevalent this season in walnut trees, causing a black sap exudation will be demonstrated in one of the Irvine ranch orchards which is included in the tour. The John Adams orchard, where the tour will start, is located on North Little Main street, at the Santa Fe tracks, about one mile west and one mile north of the City of Orange. All growers are invited to attend the demonstration, according to Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor. Smiths Leave Soon For Oregon Ranch Mr. and Mrs. E. Smith, who for years owned their home at 1018 west Broadway, have traded it for a 140-acre timber and alfalfa ranch at Tallent, Oregon. They will leave Saturday to take up residence on their ranch, where Mr. Smith plans to re-enter the cattle raising business. Before coming to Anaheim in 1920, Mr. Smith had been engaged for a score "Heroic Effort" Winner Miss Vera L. Goodrich, Northampton, Mass., toiled in the Temple College Cafeteria, to pay her way all through school—and as a graduate teacher is rewarded in receiving the coveted "Heroic Effort" award. Wild Cat Test To Be Completed Soon Completion of the test oil well being drilled on West Orangethorpe as a result of the community lease arrangement made several months ago is expected in September, Max Royer announced this week. The well now has penetrated a gas pocket and is going through a marine formation at about 3600 feet. Present indications are that the well must be sunk below 5,000 feet, while early geological estimates placed oil between 4200 and 4800 feet. SENT TO SAN QUENTIN Superior Judge James L. Allen Friday sentenced Marian Eckroat, who recently entered a plea of guilty to burglary. Smiths Leave Soon For Oregon Ranch Mr. and Mrs. E.

"The most important purpose of cultivation of orchard soils." states the bulletin, "is to remove weed competition. The purpose of irrigation is to provide readily available moisture in the soil throughout the year. "Tillage of itself does not increase yields. The contention that cultivation is beneficial for soil aeration with resulting increase of fertility and increased yields does not seem to be justified. Reasons usually advocated for frequent cultivation and deep tillage are not sound." According to Farm Advisor Wahlberg, many growers have applied the principles discussed in this circular and have materially changed the practices in their orchards. Cultivation has become less frequent and shallower than formerly. Among the topics discussed in the circular, number 50, are the following: Water in soils; the soil as a reservoir for water; how soils are wetted; use of water by trees; tree responses to soil-moisture conditions; irrigation during the growing season; irrigation during the spring; irrigation during the summer; irrigation during the winter. Huge Savings In School Budgets (Continued from page 1) year. Here estimates were slashed from $380,471 to 0317,610. Taxpayers' Best Argument The greater proportion of savings made in the reduced school budgets for next year was in reduction of salaries paid to teachers. At present the district school boards have control of this expenditure, the greatest single cost of education. Under the proposed amendment, the state constitution would fix the majority of expenses for the schools, and no reduction on these particular costs could be made because they would have to be paid out of state funds — before the cost of general government itself. Reductions of per capita school expenditures from $46.13 (taken from State Controller Ray L. Rilley's report for the year 1931) to $40.71 is the biggest argument the tax payer has to keep his thumb on direct control of the various tax-levying bodies in the state. The proposed amendment wouldn't take away the district or county features of levying a school tax—in fact, it would require that taxes as at present must be levied by districts for all capital outlay, for bond interest and redemption. Also, other expenses would have to be raised by both district and county for school purposes, so we would have two more means of taxation, an assurance of increased expenditures of schools, and no assurance that property would be relieved.

These estimates, just ma All-Year Club of Southern Ltd., are "based," said the factors that have proved too gable barometers, even durable conditions." This area's ability to produce factory housing facilities for visitors as may come is in club points out, by the fac Angeles alone has transferred accommodations for 392,000 exclusive of private clubs camps, and double this number accommodated when the hotels of the rest of the country the Southland are taken in. Signed statements received thousands of tourists here in summer season showed the length of stay to be 19 days average daily expenditure $6.08, making the average tourist expenditure $115.52 southern counties. "Since the games cover alone," says the club, "it is to expect that the average stay this summer will be long as last summer." According to Farm Advisor Wahlberg, many growers have applied the principles discussed in this circular and have materially changed the practices in their orchards. Cultivation has become less frequent and shallower than formerly. Among the topics discussed in the circular, number 50, are the following: Water in soils; the soil as a reservoir for water; how soils are wetted; use of water by trees; tree responses to soil-moisture conditions; irrigation during the growing season; irrigation during the spring; irrigation during the fall; irrigation during the winter; influence of irrigation on root distribution; cultivation of orchards. To Demonstrate Fungus Control Citrus and Walnut Growers to Inspect Trees July 14 Citrus and walnut growers of Orange county will be particularly interested in a public demonstration of oak root fungus control scheduled by the agricultural extension service. Interested growers are invited to meet at the East end of Ball road, near the Santa Ana river, at 10 o'clock, Thursday morning, July 14, from which point they will visit an oak root fungus infection now undergoing recommended treatment. This will be a special opportunity for orchardists to become acquainted with the disease, its effect on trees and how to combat its further progress in the orchard, according to Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg. The root fungus has been found in a number of orchards throughout the county. It requires special treatment of trenching and soil fumigation. Every grower should be able to recognize the symptoms of the disease in order to start treatment before it progresses too far. Most trees common to Southern California are subject to infestation of the oak root fungus. It also attacks rose bushes, geraniums and many other ornamental plants. The fungus was first found on oak trees but is now found on many domestic trees. Illuminated Water Craft Will Draw Hundreds to Newport and Balboa With brightly illuminated and decorated water craft of every kind, bands and orchestras playing, the new and larger Goodyear dirigible and other aircraft flying above and with huge army anti-aircraft searchlights from Fort MacArthur shooting their beams into the air, the Newport-Balboa tournament of lights will be staged this Saturday evening in Newport Bay. This unique spectacle of "a million gleaming lights on one in a million nights" will reverse the usual depression order of things, for the "lights will be more magnificent than ever this year, with more entries from outside communities. This is hailed not only as assuring a more beautiful sight than before, but also as a splendid exhibition of optimism in Southern California in this Olympic and flesta year. In addition to the usual prizes for the various sizes and classes of boats, special trophies are offered this year for entries using the George Washington bicentennial motif and for those depicting nations and games in the Tenth Olympiad. However, these themes are not compulsory, and these prizes are extra, the basis on which the entries will be judged being beauty and light. Among the community floats are Pasadena, Long Beach, Anaheim, Laguna Beach, San Clemente, Costa Mesa and Tustin. A float representing Mexico, one of the nations in the Olympic games, is being entered by Sol Gonzales of Santa Ana, while A. H. Hall of that city will enter his boat and the bugle and drum corps of the Spanish War veterans of the city and district. The famous drum corps of the Santa Ana American Legion will also be in the parade. The Newport Harbor post of the legion, depicting Washington crossing the Delaware, the City of Newport Beach, Newport Harbor service club, fire department, Boy Scouts, Masonic home, Newport Harbor Yacht club, Balboa Yacht club, West Newport Yacht club, Corona del Mar, Lido Isle and several other local organizations, besides many private entries, will be in the parade, which will start at 7:30.

His work met with final approval of financiers at Washton and he has many testimonials of them complimenting him upon his movement. There is not another public official in the state of California that has done so much good work in important matter and it is to nist that these re-opened financial institutions are now doing so well. It has done in the interests of the banks he is doing for the public large, giving freely of his time and easy to the betterment of their care. The question with voters is whether can fulfill the duties of this importoffice better than others offering or services, and they are impressed by the fact that he can.

They support him as the best qualified man for job and are ready to have his word judged by intelligent voters. State Fair Plans Big Poultry Show All Types Entered for Exhibits Pigeons, Rabbits Shown, Too The house-holder who plans to add chickens to his suburban place—and may have done so this year, records show—can learn what he needs to know about it at the California State fair, to be held in Sacramento, Septenber 3 to 10, inclusive. The greatest poultry show in the west is planned for this year, for reasons given by the directors in charge, Harold J. McCurry and Thomas E. Anderson. "California's wonderful egg-producing plants have waged a gallant battle for the past year or more," they declare, "with even the public realizing that egg prices are really too close to the cost of production. However, breeders of fancy stock should find the coming season a good one, inasmuch as so many back yard flocks are being started. There is no reason for the small poultry raiser to get anything but the best for his home pen, and usually he knows that. Consequently, breeders, realizing this have sent us the strongest list of entries we have had in years." The poultry division of the fair will include beside the well known egg and meet breeds, a complete bantam, turkey, duck and geese exhibit. Pigeons and rabbits, too, will be found in this section; together with the manufactures so interesting to be ginners. H. W. Kerrigan, Petaluma, will as assistant to the fair directors and will be aided by F. M. Washburn Attractive displays of rare and fanciful will argument the practical exhibits. There are 17,000 families in New York which own dogs and have children. Your Greatest Need Statistics show there are more accidents in one week now than during the whole year of 1910. Your chance of having an accident now is 52 times greater than then. It is better to have insurance and not need it than to need insurance and not have it.
