Windbreaks For Orchards Sought
County-Wide Program Under Consideration; Meeting Is Held Monday
Plans pointing toward a county-wide windbreak planting movement were discussed in Fullerton Monday by a group of 14 packing house managers and Farm Advisor Harold Wahlberg. It was decided to hold another meeting in the near future to which growers will be invited.
Protection of all groves in the county is necessary, it was pointed out during the discussions. A few of the groves now have windbreaks, but the total is too small to be of benefit to the industry as a whole.
In previous years when oranges were bringing good prices, even wind-scarred fruit was salable, it was said by J. A. Prizer, manager of the Placentia Orange Growers association. There is now, however, little or no market for wind damaged fruit and it therefore behoves growers to protect their groves to prevent oranges from being damaged by wind, he added.
Prizer pointed out that at the time the first orange groves were planted in the county most of the growers installed windbreaks. Some 15 or 20 years ago many of these protections were removed on the assumption they were not needed. Experience has proved that windbreaks are necessary for undamaged oranges, he said.
Windbreak studies made by his office were outlined by Farm Advisor Wahlberg.
It is planned to name a committee of growers to investigate all angles of the county-wide proposition. This group will probably be selected at the next
National Citrus Sales Opens Today With Assistance of Food Industry
Prompted by growers of citrus fruit in California, Arizona, Texas and Florida, the retail food industry throughout the United States will direct special effort to persuading people to eat more oranges and grapefruit during the 10-day period beginning today.
This will be the third national citrus sale in a season when the total harvest of citrus fruit from all domestic producing areas is greater than ever before.
With the experience of previous sales concentrations to guide them, some 200,000 food outlets have organized for the March drive. Notwithstanding a 25 per cent loss to California's remaining navel orange crop, due to a three-day windstorm which blew fruit from the trees, that state will contribute a plentiful supply of oranges to the national market, according to the California Fruit Growers Exchange.
The exchange, taking its turn at national promotion for the citrus industry, has sent out 20,000 sales manuals to stimulate trade cooperation. This 24-page booklet gives equal emphasis to all three producing areas, illustrating proved selling displays of fruit and merchandising material available free to dealers. To stimulate consumer demand for oranges and grapefruit, leading marketing agencies from all producing states have arranged for concentrated consumer advertising in magazines, newspapers and out-of-home media.
Organized groups of distributors and food retailers cooperating with the citrus fruit industry in national sales promotion include Independent Food Distribution council, representing 153,000 grocery stores: National Association of Food Chains, with 26,000 members; Super Market institute, 18 markets; National Restaurant Association, 5800 outlets; National Association of Chain Drug Stores, 4000 stores; National Association of Retail Druggists, 28,000 members; Limited Price Variety Store association, representing 66 stores; and the Institute of Distribution, which includes among 99 members many stores with restaurants or soda fountains.
Railroads are featuring citrus fruits on dining car menus hotels are specializing in service of oranges and grapefruit in various forms.

Some 15 or 20 years ago many of these protections were removed on the assumption they were not needed. Experience has proved that windbreaks are necessary for undamaged oranges, he said.

The delicious, individual flavor of asparagus, plus its ease of preparation, makes it the darling of the homemaker. It is so succulently good, either plain or "dressed up" that its reappearance in the markets is a welcome sight.
Delicious as asparagus is, it is a delicately flavored vegetable that requires careful cooking to preserve its goodness. Here is where users of electric ranges have an advantage, for the dependable measured heat of electricity enables asparagus to be cooked with very little water, preserving its garden flavor and all its food value.
Electric cooking of asparagus requires only about one-half cup water and about twenty minutes. Cut off the tough end of the stalks, wash them well and tie in uniform bundles for individual servings. Place the bundles in an upright position in a deep saucepan. Add water, salt and cover tightly. Cook on high heat until steam appears; finish the cooking on low heat.
Remove asparagus to a hot platter and slip each individual serving into a lemon ring from which the pulp has been removed. Serve with a fluffy Hollandaise sauce, or with a rich cream sauce to which mushrooms and hard-cooked eggs have been added. Try this latter combination on crisp waffle squares—and plates will be passing for more!
