The Farmer’s Corner
By Ralph H. Taylor
Secretary Agricultural Legislative Committee
Virtually every branch of California agriculture, with its vast array of more than 180 commercial crops, will be affected directly or indirectly — and usually beneficially — by enactments of the 1933 state legislature, soon to be written into the statute books.
Already boasting the largest agricultural code of any state in the nation, due to the multiplicity of farming industries and the wide range of its markets, California agriculture comes under a host of new laws this year, drafted to meet emergency problems.
Farm cooperatives, which handle the bulk of the state's marketing, are aided by several of the new measures.
Two bills, for instance—S. B. 282, by Senator Wagy and A. B. 1226, by Assemblyman Powers,—relieve cooperatives and their members from unnecessary borrowing charges by amendments to the personal property brokers' law, commonly called the loan shark act. Under the terms of the new amendments, cooperatives and other organizations borrowing under federal supervision are exempted from provisions of the law, thereby reducing the cost of loans to such borrowers.
The Stow-Duval bill, another act of importance to the cooperative marketing movement, permits farmer cooperative marketing organizations, which are, in fact, cooperatives but which are not organized under the cooperative marketing laws, to come under such laws by resolution and proper amendments to their by-laws. This measure will avoid heavy expenses of reorganization heretofore necessary in such instances where a cooperative desired to secure the full benefit of such laws.
Of paramount importance among general farm bills, affecting the entire industry, the Badham act—A. B. 770—strikes at a practice which has resulted in serious injury to agriculture during periods of frenzied competition. The bill tightens up the laws regulating unfair competition by prohibiting below-profit-selling to freeze out competitors.
Also of general importance, A. B. 1148, by Assemblyman Ross, gives necessary protection to agricultural commissioners and other farm officials in the pursuit of their duties. This bill, meeting a condition which has endangered enforcement work in the past, provides that in the enforcement of laws which may later be declared unconstitutional no liability shall rest on officials charged with such enforcement. In effect, the new statute merely protects such officers from being 'civilly liable, when acting in the course of duty and

4H CLUB news
Girls on/4,000-Mile Tour
The 4-H style revue champion of the United States and of nearly half a million girls enrolled in clubs, is visiting points of historical interest in the eastern states. She is Miss Mildred Startup of Silverlake, in the heart of rural Kansas. Everywhere she goes Mildred attracts attention. Folks like her natural beauty and her wholesomeness. She is 19 and a slender blonde, and has a smile that shows a row of fine teeth that simply captivates people.
But with all her style she is the kind of country girl who knows how to step in and wash dishes or help with the chores in a pinch. No city person would ever guess it, but she does. At home she is just one of the family helping along with the struggle which her parents in common with others of ordinary means have these days to make ends meet.
In spite of it all this charming girl has won numerous honors for her high proficiency in her 4-H clothing and other projects. It's just a part of the new deal for the farm girl, points out her chaperone, Miss Lola Hilyard of the state extension service.
Through the state leaders and specialists and the county extension agents Kansas, like other states, is teaching its girls, and boys too, how to make the most of themselves and their opportunities. How to earn money at home on the farms and to have social recreations and dress as well as town boys and girls and be just as confident of themselves. The women leaders bring the latest ideas in dress to the girls and mothers and show them how to adapt them to their uses, and also within their means. Mildred's entire costume which won national championship of her cost only $19.45. It was a blue woolen suit with accessories.
The three other girls who were runners-up are with Mildred. They also reflect the new deal for the rural girl. They are Helen Clarke of Portland, Ore., accompanied by Miss Helen J. Cowgill, state leader; Mary L. Chambers of Moundsville, W. Va., with her leader, Miss Gertrude Humphreys; and Margaret Franklin of Leesville, La., with Miss Stella Jones, state leader. The party will make 4,000 miles by auto, bus, rail and steamship going as far east as Plymouth Rock and ending the trip at the Chicago World Fair.

Large Number of Supplies Bought
In performing its mission of feeding, equipping, housing and transporting the men of the emergency conservation corps, the war department has purchased 3,000 trucks, large quantities of food, 240,000 cots, 502,000 pairs of shoes, 632,000 denim trousers, 240,000 pillows, and 1,375,000 pairs of socks, in addition to large quantities of tonage, and medical and camp supplies. Railroads have benefitted through increased traffic caused by the movement of 53,000 men from the east to western camps.
Illinoisans Plan Picnic on July 22
Illinoisans of Southern California will hold their annual picnic Saturday, July 22, at Bixby Park, Long Beach, President Henry J. Brubaker of the state society announced this week.
Says President Brubaker: "Hundreds of thousands of 'Suckers' of the Illinois brand are now Californians and always want to meet neighbors of the Illinois days. Hot coffee will be served and the beautiful silk souvenir badges supplied."
"Woodpeckers" Is Newest Nickname
"Woodpeckers is the latest nickname for the men in the emergency conservation camps."
by reducing the cost of borrowers.
val bill, another act of the cooperative market permits farmer cooperations, which are not under such laws and proper amendments. This measure will intensify reorganization necessary in such instances native desired to secure such laws.
Importance among bills affecting the entire adham act—A. B. 770—notice which has resulted in agriculture during zilized competition. The laws regulating unlawful prohibiting below-freeze out competitors. Importance, A. B. Blyman Ross, gives nec- to agricultural com-mother farm officials in their duties. This bill, action which has endang- work in the past, pro- enforcement of laws be declared unconstitu-ty shall rest on officials such enforcement. In statute merely protects them being civilly liable, the course of duty and within the provisions of such laws before they have been declared invalid.
Cattlemen, selling to local markets and seeking to reduce their overhead, will be aided materially under the terms of the Sharkey-Slater act—S. B. 195—which amends the meat inspection act to permit local disposal of meats by the producer. It makes life easier for the small producer by enabling him to sell meat to his local markets without the burdensome costs of slaughter-house killing and inspection.
Another measure of considerable importance to livestock men is the new Craig bill, giving the state department of public works the authority to construct cattle trails, where practicable, paralleling state highways, as a protection to stock and motorists.
There are also several new acts closing loopholes in the various dairy laws. Two practically identical bills in this group are A. B. 1977 and A. B. 1982, both by Assemblyman Scudder. They prohibit the sale of milk or cream made from skim or wholemilk blended with butter. Another dairy act, also by Scudder, stops the practice of mixing vegetable oils with milk except for poultry feed.
S. B. 81, by Senator Mixter, combines the produce dealers and deciduous fruit dealers acts and broadens, materially, the definition of a dealer. It likewise broadens the powers of investigation granted the department of agriculture.
Strengthening egg standards, A. B.
1610, by Assemblyman Scudder, repeals present cold storage marking requirements, inasmuch as the egg standardization act sets up quality standards which give far more adequate protection to the consumer.
Taken as a whole, the new laws afford a square deal and added protection to the two groups most vitally interested—producers and consumers.
Oil Code Given Sales Agency Aid
Approval of the producers code of fair competition for the oil industry adopted at the Chicago conference of oil men was reiterated by the board of directors of oil producers sales agency. No dissent whatsoever to the code had been presented by members.
Copies of the code, with complete explanations, were furnished all members by the agency management on June 30, with a request for oral or written objections or suggestions to be considered by the board of directors at a special meeting called last week.
Manager Rush M. Blodget was instructed to telegraph the action of the board of directors to President Roosevelt, General Hugh S. Johnson, in charge of the national industrial recovery administration, and to the emergency national committee appointed to represent the oil industry.
