Stock, ink and design in Ickes, or some other person who preaches the glory of "the small farm" from the luxurious confines of a country estate, or an air-conditioned office, do away with the combine and go back to the binder? Should we return to husking corn by hand, so that farms can be made smaller and farmers can survive on less? Or should we permit American farmers to have sufficient acreage to facilitate the efficient use of machines—and encourage efficient, low-cost production which, in turn, means more of good things for our whole population at less cost? The answer is obvious. When talking moving pictures came out, they were boycotted by musicians, because it was argued they would throw thousands out of work. But today every screen talks—and we would not have it otherwise. Little farms, in this writer's judgment, will grow larger; it is inevitable. But huge farms—the vast domains of thousands of acres—will gradually become smaller, not by man-made laws, but by laws of competition. For example, many of the advantages which the giant farming operation once had over the middle-sized farm have been cancelled out today by the fact that farm co-ops permit the smaller farmers to have just as excellent buying and selling organizations as the big operator. And the farmer-owned and farmer-operated farm has many advantages, in production Mexican Citrus Is Discussed at Fruit Exchange Meeting Further indication of increased citrus production in other areas was given in a discussion of the Mexican citrus industry by Dr. Walter Ebeling of the Citrus Experiment Station at the weekly meeting of the California Fruit Growers Exchange in Los Angeles. The Riverside scientist recently spent a month in Mexico making a rapid survey of citrus pests and pest control methods. Mexico has 100,000 acres of citrus fruits—about two thirds in oranges—and the acreage is rapidly increasing, is the opinion of Dr. Ebeling. Lemons and grapefruit are practically unknown; the lime is the only citrus fruit exported commercially. This large acreage of potentially competitive production must be added to the already reported 70,000 acres of new plantings in Florida and Texas. Florida red scale is the worst citrus pest, in Mexico and California red scale ranks second. Mexican fruit fly, a serious pest in many sections, appears to be moving northward along the west coast and may eventually reach California. "Citrus trees are found in every state of Mexico but more than Farm Labor Service Surveyed By Wells, manager of the labor office of the Agricultural tension Service, prepare being made now for the vest demands of August ber and October, when the major crops of the city be ready for harvest ousily.

TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California If the American people want the best food and the finest materials for the lowest possible price, and the high standard of living which that type of economy fosters; if we want successful farmers, capable of buying the finished goods of the cities—then we can't afford to indulge in romancing about bringing back the good old days of the small farm! The good old days weren't so good, actually; they were days of back-breaking labor, from dawn till sundown, which netted the average farmer little more than a bare living, and which resulted in country boys migrating to the cities as rapidly as they could save train fare to get there. No prideful American farmer regrets the sweat and toil and long hours that went into wresting a living from the soil, and finally winning him a foothold on the land, but few intelligent farmers would want to turn back the clock to the days when a man's ability to survive on the farm often depended on how many sons he was given to do the work now done by machines. That kind of farming was largely subsistence farming; it was a necessary part in the development of a new nation, and the taming of the wilderness—but America vast domains of thousands of acres — will gradually become smaller, not by man-made laws, but by laws of competition. For example, many of the advantages which the giant farming operation once had over the middle-sized farm have been cancelled out today by the fact that farm co-ops permit the smaller farmers to have just as excellent buying and selling organizations as the big operator. And the farmer-owned and farmer-operated farm has many advantages, in production efficiency, over the corporation-owned farm. But in today's farm economy, the very small farm, largely operated by hand labor—and too small to support efficient machinery—is doomed, just as the horse and buggy were doomed by the invention of the automobile. It is all right, now and then, to shed a tear in the cup of memory for the dear, dead days beyond recall, but let's not try to bring them back. That would be anti-climax. If America is to go ahead, agriculture must go ahead; it would be disastrous to turn back. And it is to be hoped Congress ponders that truth before it listens too seriously to demagogues who, lacking the courage to cope with the future, would turn back to the past. Lumber Control Assures Supplies For Farm Uses Allocation of lumber for Orange county farm use totals 820,000 board feet for the three months, July, August and September, to be distributed by the County AAA Committee through preference rating certificates bearing priorities of AA-2 and AA-3, it was announced today by Stephen Griset, chairman of the Orange county committee. Rapidly falling lumber stocks, due in part to unrated deliveries permitted under earlier orders, have reduced lumber supplies for essential uses to the critical point, Griset said, adding, "We've used up our 'fat' and now must balance essential use with lumber production. "Dealers in rural areas are likely to have very little lumber except that available for essential farm use. They will have to have farmers' lumber certificates in order to maintain stock. Farmers will need to use the certificates in order to assure themselves of continuing supplies in local yards."

That kind of farming was largely subsistence farming; it was a necessary part in the development of a new nation, and the taming of the wilderness—but America then did not have huge cities to be fed, nor high farm costs requiring cash income. That was an era of trading potatoes for eggs, and corn for sugar, but the farm of that day couldn't earn the farm taxes of today, let alone the water and power bills—and the cost of sending strapping sons through the university. That was a good era; it helped to make America strong. But the era of today, and the era ahead, are better; they will make America great, unless we permit ourselves to be detoured onto dead end streets. Recently the editor of the Santa Rosa Republican pointed out that four hours of man-labor are required to harvest an acre of grain with a binder, but less than one hour is required with a combine. It takes one man six and one-quarter hours to husk an acre of good corn by hand, but only one and one-eighth hours with a one-row picker. It takes 42 man-hours to transplant an acre of sweet potatoes by hand, while a modern machine requires only ten hours. And to block, thin, top and load an acre of sugar beets by hand requires 72 hours, while machines can do the same work in 12 man-hours. Should we then, to please Mr. Dealers in rural areas are likely to have very little lumber except that available for essential farm use. They will have to have farmers' lumber certificates in order to maintain stock. Farmers will need to use the certificates in order to assure themselves of continuing supplies in local yards," Griset explained. "AA-2 rating certificates for lumber for emergencies, repair, and maintenance can be issued, while less urgent jobs and small farm construction (not dwellings) will be rated AA-3 for the remainder of the quarterly allocation." Although previous lumber orders have been rescinded and replaced by the new M-335 with very much tighter civilian controls to become effective August 1, the WPB Order (L-41) controlling construction is still in effect and lumber used in construction approved under this order will not diminish the quotas for farm use, Griset pointed out. The total lumber quota for the three-month period for the State is 43½ million board feet. Applications for lumber certificates will be filed at the County Agricultural Conservation Office at 622 North Main street, Santa Ana, and when approved the valid certificates will be accepted by lumber dealers who in turn extend the ratings to their suppliers for replacement of lumber stocks delivered in accordance with the order, Griset concluded.

Mrs. David Grauer Called By Death Antonia Grauer, 66 years old, a native of Germany who came to Porterville, California, forty-two years ago and who has resided south of Anaheim for thirty-three years, passed way Tuesday afternoon at a Fullerton hospital after an illness of but a few days. On Sunday morning she attended her church services and was taken seriously ill Sunday night. On Monday she was removed to the hospital but all that medical skill could do was of no avail. Surviving are her husband, David Grauer; two daughters, Mrs. Ella Sitenhof and Mrs. Lydia Bohnet, both of Anaheim; one son, Elvin Gauer of Porterville; one brother, William Michaelis of Porterville and four grandchildren. She was an active member of the Bethel Baptist church. Funeral services will be conducted from the Bethel Baptist church Friday at 2 o'clock and entombment will be made in Fairhaven mausoleum near Orange. Hilgenfeld mortuary is in charge of arrangement. Farm Labor Situation In Orange County Surveyed By Farm Extension Service While the farm labor demand and supply is fairly well balanced in Orange county for the moment, according to George Wells, manager of the Farm Labor office of the Agricultural Extension Service, preparations are being made now for the peak harvest demands of August, September and October, when several of the major crops of the county will be ready for harvest simultaneously. Wells states that due to continued cool summer weather maturing of crops has been slow and as a result the demand for help has been amply provided, thus enabling many growers to get their fields in good condition prior to actual harvest. The greatest demand for help up to this time has been in the citrus industry where approximately 3,000 are now picking oranges and lemons while about 2,700 are engaged in the packing of the fruit. In the tomato crop this year's planting of about 2,500 acres is a little below that of 1943, but here again is a case where cool weather has retarded the ripening of the tomatoes such that only about 5%, lying along the warmer slope of the hills back of the coast, is now ripe and being picked for market. Picking of tomatoes for canneries will start about the middle of August and extend on through November. The Farm Labor Office is now recruiting many girls for pitting apricots at Hemet, where the harvest season started July 18th and will continue for three or four weeks. These girls will be housed in one of the schools under a capable woman supervisor who Lt. J. W. Cummins Writes Parents of So. Pacific Battle In a recent letter received by Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Cummins of Wagner Road, their son, Lt J. W. Cummins, wrote of the landing of the Allies on the Marianas Islands, stating he was with the second contingent landing there. “It’s terribly hot here,” wrote J. W., “and at times I thought I would go completely under. Don’t worry about me because I’m all O. K.” At present he is Regimental Grave Officer and he stated that it was a terribly hard job with a lot of work to do. One experience he had that he likely will remember is the time that he wandered away from his troop at the front line and as soon as he discovered what he had done, he hurriedly rejoined the men. The danger of snipers, he says, is too great to stray away from your company very far because there is always some of the enemy lying in wait for an Allied soldier or Marine. Lt. Cummins will be in overseas service one year next month (August). He says “Things are in a heck of a mess but we hope to do a real job of it this time and soon.” This is the first letter Mr. and Mrs. Cummins have received from him since the first part of June. His address is: Lt. J. W. Cummins (DC), USN H & S Co., the Rev. Thomas L. Burden, pastor of the White Temple Methodist church, officiating. Burial was in the family plot in Anaheim cemetery. DAUGHTER BORN Mr. and Mrs. Richard Lawson of Route 4, Anaheim, announce the birth of a daughter, born Sunday, July 16, at St. Joseph hospital. Have you called The Gazette to give a news item about the company you had, or the visit you made? Please phone 2206. Arthur Willis Wagner of El Toro MCAS, and Bernice Carter of Anaheim, were issued a marriage license at the county courthouse on Monday. When WORK'S DONE Swim and Sun in a Jantzen about 5%, lying along the warmer slope of the hills back of the coast, is now ripe and being picked for market. Picking of tomatoes for canneries will start about the middle of August and extend on through November. The Farm Labor Office is now recruiting many girls for pitting apricots at Hemet, where the harvest season started July 18th and will continue for three or four weeks. These girls will be housed in one of the schools under a capable woman supervisor who will have charge of the dormitory as well as of the cutting shed. The lima and black eye bean crop from 38,000 acres is well advanced, and through the Farm Labor Office recruitment and placement, large crews for hoeing weeds have been used. It is estimated that 75 per cent of the fields have been hoed at least once. Much of this work was done by girls and younger women. Harvesting of Ford Hook lima beans for the quick freeze industry will start about the first of August, according to Wells. There are approximately 1,500 acres in Orange county and 600 acres in southern Los Angeles county. Some of this harvest will be done by hand and the balance by use of "viners," a machine designed to thresh and separate the green beans from the pods. As soon as the beans are podded they are packed in ice and trucked to the main plant in Pasadena where they are prepared and canned for market. "Viner" units will be set up in the vicinity of Greenville and also at Westminster. COUNTY MOVES TO DESTROY INFECTED GROVE Agricultural Commissioner D. W. Tubbs has filed suit in the superior court for an order to destroy two acres of infected citrus trees northwest of Anaheim, near Manchester and Gilbert street. The grove belongs to R. J. Lloyd who is charged by Tubbs with neglecting his trees until they are infected with scale and insects and are a menace to other nearby citrus groves. Former Resident Dies In Los Angeles Marguerite L. Polson, a former resident of Anaheim but lately of Holbrook, Arizona, passed away at the White Memorial hospital in Los Angeles on Saturday morning, July 15. She was taken seriously ill less than two weeks ago but medical science failed to save her life. She was 49 years old at the time of her passing. Mrs. Polson had been a resident of Anaheim for many years and had attended the local schools. Surviving are her husband, Claude O. Polson of Arizona; one son, Rawlin A. Golter with the armed forces; one daughter, Miss Bonney D. Polson of Arizona; her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth F. Machleb, formerly of Anaheim, now of Los Angeles; one brother, Russell E.
