The thread will call the cleaner’s attention to the spots and it can be easily removed when the clothes are returned. After washing white corduroy in warm soapy water until clean, let it soak in soapy water for half an hour. Then rinse it in clean water, changing the water at least three times and rinsing again in bluing water, cold. After that, don’t wring or squeeze the corduroy, but hang it, dripping, to dry in the open air. Do not iron it. A teaspoon of marshmallow added to the ingredients of your candy will prevent it from drying out and hardening for several days. Next time you make French dressing, put the ingredients into a fruit jar and shake. It’s much easier and quicker than stirring with a fork.

Explains Reasons Why County Put On Drought Area Primary Purposes to Aid Where Actual Distress, and Improve General Quality By W. M. CORY, Assistant Farm Advisor When public attention was first drawn to the fact that Orange county had been designated as a drought relief area many wondered why, as there was little evidence of drought in the fruit and vegetable sections. This drought relief program concerns only cattle producers. "Emergency drought area" therefore has a meaning to cattlemen only. The drought relief program has a two-fold function. It is first to supply relief where there is an actual water or feed shortage by the purchase of such stock. Secondly, producers in officially designated drought areas may sell low grade cattle to conserve available feed for those cattle that remain. By this means cattlemen may reduce their herds of the number that their feed supply will safely carry through and in so doing improve the general quality of their herd by culling out the poorer individuals. Cattle which are purchased, "accepted for use" are to be processed, canned, and distributed for relief purposes, and this will not interfere with the regular channels of trade. At a recent committee meeting of cattlemen in the farm advisor's office it was decided to proceed with the organization of a county drought relief committee. The personnel of this committee is to consist of five members, one cattleman appointed by the Call- Mr. Riutcel in the Riutcel-Smith Furniture company, stated that the local business man had donned his working togs to help thresh wheat on his dry land ranch.

Polhemus and son, Dean, and the former's niece, Miss Muriel The 2½ percent state sales tax will NOT be collected on sales of farm fertilizers — reports to the contrary notwithstanding! That positive declaration comes from Fred E. Stewart of the state board of equalization, spiking rumors that the board planned to remove fertilizers from the tax-exempt classification. Saving California farmers more than $100,000 annually in sales tax payments, the board's ruling, or re-declaration of its original policy, is of primary importance to orchardists and vegetable growers — both heavy users of fertilizers. Stewart declared that the board had no thought whatever of reversing its position, adding: "It has been clearly established that fertilizers are essential to the efficient production of fruits and vegetables And inasmuch as these products are taxed under the sales levy when they go into consumption, it is the opinion of the board that a tax on fertilizers used in their production would be 'double taxation.'" "The ruling on fertilizers is in direct accord with the board's previous decision holding that feedstuffs are not taxable when they go into the production of farm commodities which will subsequently carry the 2½ per cent sales tax." "In guarding against 'pyramiding' of the sales tax, the board is diligently seeking to maintain the tax relief accorded farm property, and real proper friends of the wonderful time they enjoyed at Huntington Lake, from which they returned Saturday evening.

TODAY AND TOMORROW By FRANK PARKER STOCKBRIDGE REPORTER ... at 68 years My friend Frederick T. Birchall of the New York Times received the Pulitzer Prize in journalism the other day for best work of a newspaper correspondent in 1933. That may not mean much, but it proves one thing I have long maintained. That is, that newspaper work is not, as people often say, a "young man's game." For Fred Birchall is 68 years old, and has been a newspaper correspondent for only three years! As a very young man he worked for a short time as a reporter. Then he got an editorial job and rose through the ranks until he was acting managing editor Of The Times. At 65, when most men retire, he wanted to be a reporter again, so The Times sent him to Europe to go where he pleased. His dispatches from European capitals prove that one doesn't have to be a boy to be a good reporter. This is one occupation in which a man can keep on doing good and constantly improving work as long as his health lasts. SOCIALISM ... State owned Stripped of all of its sophomoric entanglements, the essence of Socialism is not abolition of capital, but ownership of all capital by the State. The tendency in that direction has been growing stronger for more than a hundred years. Private capital used to build and operate highways and bridges, charging toll for every traveller or vehicle that used them. Long ago those enterprises became investments of public capital. Agriculture, fishing, mining and manufacturing are still in the hands of private capital. The complete Socialist program would make all of those func- used in their production would be 'double taxation.' "The ruling on fertilizers is in direct accord with the board's previous decision holding that feedstuffs are not taxable when they go into the production of farm commodities which will subsequently carry the 2½ per cent sales tax. "In guarding against 'pyramiding' of the sales tax, the board is diligently seeking to maintain the tax relief accorded farm property, and real property generally, by adoption of the Riley-Stewart tax plan at the special election a year ago." The importance of the ruling on fertilizers is evidenced by the fact that the California farming industry spends from $3,500,000 to $6,000,000 annually for fertilizers, the amount of the bill varying according to farm income. In normal times, when sales of fertilizer approximate $5,000,000 per year, the board's ruling will save the industry in the neighborhood of $125,000 annually. Growers of tree fruits and vegetables will reap major savings, as they are compelled to make regular expenditures for fertilizers to produce paying crops. Perhaps the greatest benefits will accrue to the citrus industry which will save many thousands of dollars by continuation of the ruling that fertilizers are not taxable. The board of equalization, in reaching its original decision on the taxation of feedstuffs —which served as a basis for the later ruling on fertilizers — was guided by a general declaration of policy from state legislature, secured at the time the sales tax was adopted. California farmers, through their state-wide organizations, were successful in establishing their contention, both before the legislature and the board, that a tax on feedstuffs in most instances would be "double taxation," insinuch as the farmer's products — produced by the feedstuffs — would be taxable when old on the market. In maintaining its stand that fertiliz- Anaheim, Calif., August 9, 1934 Declares Elephant Dangerous Animal When aroused, an elephant is the most dangerous of all big game animals. Arthur Cane, internationally-known big game hunter employed by the British government to kill berserk animals in India, told members of the Anaheim Rotary club at the luncheon meeting Monday. The hunter, now a resident of Corona, declared that many large animals have "spells" when they attack every form of human and animal life. During these times the British government has found it necessary to send trained hunters into the jungles to kill animals who endanger the lives of natives.
