Beekeepers Hold Annual Meeting Saturday in Santa Ana; 80 Present The best way to stabilize honey prices so that the producer may set at least his cost of production is for producers to use Government warehouses in the storage of their honey, according to Dr. J. E. Dickert, Davis, who addressed 80 beekeepers of Orange County at their annual meeting Saturday in the Farm Bureau Hall, Santa Ana. Eluted markets are unsatisfactory to the producer, distributor and consumer, he said. The honey industry can prevent radical fluctuations in prices by controlling the flow to market. It would put honey production on a satisfactory business basis and insure a solidity that it does not now enjoy. H. J. Crawford, Olive, chairman of the Farm Bureau Beekeepers Department, presided at the meeting. A. K. Widden, president of the California Beekeepers Association, spoke on the relation of rainfall to honey production in California. He illustrated his talk with graphs in colored lines, one representing rainfall, the other pounds of honey, and showed quite clearly the relation between the two. In 1914 Mr. Whidden produced an average per colony yield of 360 pounds of honey and on top of that made a 50 percent increase of this stock. According to his charts and records, it was shown that the gains during the middle period had more effect on the honey crop than of first or later periods. This was in reference to the mountain and sage honey. The late mays, however, were the ones that made the best orange honey flows. Spectator, Sacramento, told of some of the recent changes in the law pertaining to the movement of bees and equipment into the state. He also asked that the beekeepers cooperate better in notifying their inspectors of any movements of their bees from one location to another, in order that better check can be made. He told of progress in the new standardization law pertaining to honey. Frank Todd, in charge of the Pacific Coast Bee Laboratory, spoke on pollen and its function in rearing bees; fundamentals influencing growth of colonies; Buckeye poisoning, and poisoning of bees by certain varieties of Locoweed. Experiments started last fall in this county and other parts of the state will be carried on during this season to note development of different cononies in relation to amount of pollen present in each hive. A resolution was offered by the beekeepers to write to Mr. J. I. Hambleton, U. S. Department of Agriculture, at Washington, expressing their appreciation for the work Mr. Todd and his able assistants are doing at the Pacific Coast Bee Laboratory at the University Farm Davis. Miss Frances Liles, Home Demonstration Agent of the Agricultural Extension Service, expalined her educational work in home economics and management with the farm women of Orange County and offered the facilities of her department to acquaint the housewives with the uses of honey. Officers for the year were elected as follows: H. J. Crawford, Hoosiers to Meet In L. A.

Stock raising and dairying have reached a point of high perfection. Alfalfa is a big factor. It grows luxuriantly the year round, with or without irrigation, and from four to seven crops are harvested yearly. The first orchard of clingstone peaches was planted in 1850 and Yuba now is the heart of the "World's Peach Bowl." Approximately 6,600 acres are devoted to the clingstone in this county. Prunes and pears are next in importance. Production of grapes is growing annually and it has been predicted that Yuba will develop into one of the important Tokay grape districts of the State. Since early days, Yuba has been a great producer of gold and for a period, 1925-1928, led counties in the yield of that metal. Two old mining towns remain, Timbucoo and Smartsville. Rare mining relics of Timbucoo are housed in the express office of pioneer days through which passed millions in gold dust. Camptonville is another...

One of the original twenty-seven counties: "Yuba" is corruption of the Spanish word signifying "wild grape". A Spanish exploring expedition in 1824 found immense quantities of vines leading the banks of a river, which is the chief tributary of the Weather River. These vines were heavily laden with wild grapes called Uvas silvestres in Spanish), and the river was therefore called the Uva or Uba, and by a corruption of the word "Uba" the river eventually became known by its present name, "Yuba," from which word the county derived its name. This county is one of the most productive agriculturally in the state. Ages ago, when the Sacramento Valley was a great inland valley, the silt of the Sierra Nevada mountains and the foothills was washed into this area and these deposits account for the rich and fertile soil of Yuba. In addition to its soil and a desirable climate, NOW IS THE TIME TO PLANT FRUIT TREES while we have a complete assortment of home grown TREES - VINES - BERRY PLANTS, ETC. Orange County Nursery Co.
