Culture Practice Affects Freezing Susceptibility of Citrus Trees to Frosts Depends on Many Factors In the colder citrus areas of Southern California the following facts concerning susceptibility of citrus trees to frost will be of particular interest to growers, according to Harold E. Wahlberg farm advisor, Orange county. Extra dry trees may be more affected by frost than trees well supplied with moisture if the tree's growth is checkered or otherwise affected by frost or other adverse conditions.

Susceptibility of Citrus Trees to Frost Depends on Many Factors In the colder citrus areas of Southern California the following facts concerning susceptibility of citrus trees to frost will be of particular interest to growers, according to Harold E. Wahlberg farm advisor, Orange county. Extra dry trees may be more affected by frost than trees well supplied with moisture. If the tree's growth is checked by lack of soil moisture and this is followed by early fall rains, late growth may be forced out. This late growth is very susceptible to frost. It is well to remember that use of nitrogen late in the season where nitrogen has been deficient, together with plenty of moisture, tends to prolong growth. Late pruning and late treatment of Scaly Bark are not the best practices if one would avoid frost damage in the colder areas. Fruit on actively growing trees is usually damaged more than if the trees are not growing so actively during the winter months. Young trees which are nearly dormant are less affected by frost than those in more active growth. The stage of maturity affects the extent of frost damage. As fruit reaches maturity it becomes more resistant. The order of frost resistance is as follows: grapefruit, hardiest; then the Valencia, Navel, Thompson Navel, Tangerine and Satsuma, and Lisbon and Eureka.

Says this boy, Harold Toon, by name: "The club leader and county agent have been a big help to me, especially as I had no father to guide me. The 4-H club has taught me how to help myself to attain the best I am able mentally and socially. It has had an influence on everything in my life." This is Harold's history, as he relates it, in brief: His father died four years ago leaving him and his mother and a brother on a 40-acre farm. In spite of the farm and livestock having been run down, the boy loved the country. He had seen farms which were doing much better than theirs, and were nicer places to live. Partly with the hope of gaining knowledge that would help him improve the old farm, and of having a better social life he joined a local 4-H club. His first move was to buy a purebred Jersey heifer and a purebred Berkshire gilt, using proceeds of the sale of their scrub hogs. He showed the two animals at the county show, then at the state fair, and learned a lot in the experience. His livestock won him a trip to the big stock show in Chicago. There he learned a lot more, and got a larger vision of the importance of agriculture in the nation. He felt he was in a big business. The different breeds at the stock show were very interesting to him. The next year he worked harder than ever to make the most of his opportunities. He won a trip to the National Dairy Show, saw some more fine cattle, many enthusiastic boys like himself, and learned a lot. The many fine men he met convinced him more than ever it was something to be a good farmer. PRECOCIOUS HEN IS "GOOD BIDDY" BEFORE XMAS! An otherwise unprecocious Buff Orphington hen, owned by Mrs. E. E. Fairchilds of Garden Grove, recently presented her owner with a double egg. The exterior shell dimensions were nine and one-half inches by seven and one-half inches. Inside this shell was a normal sized egg. Apparently the biddy had some intimation that Christmas was approaching and considered a little extra effort at this time would be rewarded with an extra feed. Evidently doing their work extra well at this season of the year is not confined to children alone. Watches Racketeering Among Milk Producers Investigator Robert Sandon of the district attorney's office reports that he is keeping an eagle eye for evidence that racketeers, who are attempting to "organize" the milk producers in Los Angeles county, have entered Orange county. So far, no clue linking racketeering to the milk industry of this county has been found, Sandon reports. In case such efforts are reported, the district attorney's office is planning a reception similar to that given when "organizers" tried to line up dry cleaners and barbers. California's Oldest Reserve Celebrates California's first national forest was created by President Benjamin Harrison on December 20, 1892—40 years ago. His proclamation set aside 555,520 acres in Los Angeles county to be known as the San Gabriel timberland reserve under authority granted by the Act of March 3, 1891. This area was regarded as valuable for watershed protection by the U.S. geological survey of the department of the interior and by the first California state forestry commission appointed by Governor George Stoneman in 1885. New Plates to be Sent Out After January 3 Responding to the call of the department of motor vehicles to shop early for 1933 license plates, approximately 15,000 Californians are forwarding applications daily by mail. Russell Bevans, registrar of the department, announced the applications would be checked immediately and that plates would be shipped immediately after the holidays. The same combination of colors as of this year will be used except that they will be reversed. Meanwhile to save time for the big rush expected January 3rd when counters will be thrown open for direct delivery of plates, the department is concentrating on getting block applications of corporations and public service bodies out of the way. Three things are stressed for the motorist to remember who sends his application by mail. They are: 1. If the applicant has completed his payments and assumed legal ownership of his car during the year he must send $1 extra for the transfer fee. 2. If the applicant has moved since last registering his vehicle he must write his new address on the certificate of registration. 3. If the address on the certificate is not the same as the address of his residence he must put his residence address in the line marked "Residence County of". This is important to enable the department to make the proper apportionment or license funds to the counties. When applying for plates by mail it is necessary to send the certificate of registration and the amount of the fee by check, money order or bank draft. The department advises against the use of currency. Trojans Wary About Feting Remember Few Invitations after Defeat Two Years ago; Prepare for Pittsburgh Southern California's Trojans, dined and entertained by well-meaning friends and followers since their recent victory over Notre Dame, are finished with their bow-taking activities and are back at serious training for their battle with the revenge-seeking Pittsburgh Panthers at Pasadena, January 2. Inasmuch as the memory of how much entertaining they didn't get after the Notre Dame game when they lost two years ago is still very impressive, the Trojans have taken their feting of the last week appreciatively but warily. Snow Sports and Carnivals Booked While the Southland is enjoying the full extent of the recent snowfall, the mountain resorts at Big Bear Lake and Lake Arrowhead have announced dates for their annual snow carnivals which will provide opportunity for southern California residents to again experience the trills of snow and ice sports. Lake Arrowhead will stage its Christmas snow carnival on Saturday ano Sunday, Dec. 24 and 25, while Big Bear Lake will hold its inaugural events on January 1st and 2nd. Each resort area will hold special winter sports events each week-end until the end of February. Preparations have also been made at each resort to provide equipment for all visitors to participate in all kinds of snow and ice sports, according to J. H. Harrington, local agent for the Motor Transit Stages. "All sorts of real old fashioned winter games are now at their best in the San Bernardino mountain resorts, including Big Bear Lake, Lake Arrowhead, Creston, Lee L. A. municipal playgrounds Camp Seeley and other resorts," added Harrington today, "where bogging, skiing, skating, snowshoeing, sleighing, etc., may be indulged in under much more favorable condition than in the east." 307 Mountain Lions Killed Up to Nov. 1 Southern California's Trojans, dined and entertained by well-meaning friends and followers since their recent victory over Notre Dame, are finished with their bow-taking activities and are back at serious training for their battle with the revenge-seeking Pittsburgh Panthers at Pasadena, January 2. Inasmuch as the memory of how much entertaining they didn't get after the Notre Dame game when they lost two years ago is still very impressive, the Trojans have taken their feting of the last week appreciatively but warily. They are back at work now wearing the same size helmets and with normal chest expansions, and if they can be brought back to the physical peak that they reached for the Notre Dame contest they should be ready to give the Panthers a hearty welcome on the Rose Bowl turf. Although Coach Howard Jones plans no radical changes in his offense or line-up, he is keeping practice sessions secret and has his boys preparing for the big East-West championship in as serious a manner as they worked for the Irish battle. The Trojan coaching staff is handicapped in making its defensive plans as no S. C. scouts saw the Pitt eleven in action this season. The Panthers are known to be using both the double-wingback and single-wingback formations and the Southern California staff faces a problem in building a defense that will be prepared for either. According to Drs. Packard Thurber and Walter R. Fleseler of the Trojan medical staff, the S. C. squad is in good physical condition except for minor bruises and a few cases of slight colds, the squad of 37 that is being kept in training for the game is as follows: Right ends: Palmer, Browning, Biggs. Right tackles: Smith, Harper, Coughlin. Right guards: Stevens, Dye, Bardin. Centers: Youel, Jorgensen, Gentry. Left guards: Rosenberg, Tipton, Williamson. Left tackles: Brown, Lady, Packard. Left ends: Sparling, Beacos, Selxas. Quarterbacks: Griffith, Warburton, Wotkyns, Matthews. Left halfbacks: McNeish, Clark, Reboin, Bright. Right halfbacks: Clemens, Erskine, Shannon, Fay. Fullbacks: Barber, Beard. Morrison, Getz, 307 Mountain Lions Killed Up to Nov. 1 19 Beasts Fall Prey to Hunters' Shots Last Month, While Year's Total May be 330 Mountain lion hunting, which has become a great sport in California, is this year resulting in one of the largest kills of these beasts of prey recorded in the state since the bounty law went into effect in 1907. Only four times since that year has the kill been larger than this year. Up to November 1, 307 lions were bagged by state hunters, and hunters who have found this a profitable way of getting money. With the average for December, of 23 lion scalps, the total for this year will go well up to 330. Last year bounties were paid on 293 lions. In 1908, the first full year after the bounty law was enacted, the largest kill was recorded, with 482 animals. In 1909, 361 scalps were turned in. The year 1910 saw 333 more killed, and the number for 1928 was 332. Since 1907, 6703 lions have been killed on which bounties averaging $25 per scalp were paid by the state fish and game commission. These dead lions have removed a great hazard to deer, as a mountain lion is said to average a deer a week. Most of the lions are killed in country noted for deer. For November, the average of 19 lions for the month was killed. Shasta contributed five scalps; Trinity county 4; Santa Barbara, Placer, De Norte, Tehama, San Luis Obispo, Humboldt, Butte, San Diego, Tulare and San Bernardino counties one each.

Arval Morris Wins Scholastic Honors Arval Morris '33 of Anaheim is included among 124 California gold seal bearers honor students enrolled in the University of Southern California, it is revealed by Theron Clark, U.

Receives List of Certified Growers The 1932 list of certified seed potato growers was just received by the farm advisor's office from the bureau of fruit and vegetable stabilization, according to Eric E. Eastman, assistant farm advisor. The growers are all located in the counties of Sonoma, Humboldt and Del Norte. In all, ninety acres have been certified as passing the field requirements of the act entitled, "Certification of Potato Seed." This list will enable growers to secure well-grown potatoes which are practically free from virus diseases. The list may be secured upon application either to the state department's division of plant industry at Sacramento, or to the farm advisor's office.
