Dated December 14, 1945. EVAN JONES, Administrator of the Estate of said decedent. 1946 GOALS Approximately 50 persons, including farmers, representatives of the state USDA council, college of agriculture, the agricultural extension service, and various farm organizations, attended a recent meeting-in-Berkeley to make recommendations on 1946 crop goals for California. Problems closely allied to production next year, such as farm labor and housing; availability of land; fertilizer and farm machinery; consumer demand; present supplies of commodities; and California's heavy population increase, were taken into consideration before final figures were arrived at. The group realized that 1946 goals should represent the actual desired production, and that producing during peacetime calls for more careful planning, so that the summer at a home on a goering stream in Oregon winters at Long Beach far behind, with 126 feet. Roy Fox, who retired years as a mail clerk run of Chicago and who now his home at Garden Grove out in the contest like a lined train in a freight train He won three of the five and chalked up the only score of the day by win wet fly contest with a score of 100.

Recommendations of testing will be reviewed byington, and official announcement of state goals along with definite information on supports will be announced January.

USE 666 Cold Preparate Liquid, Tablets, Salve, N.Caution: use only as Western Horses dominate Winners at Santa Anita Western horses dominated the week of the 55-day race setting at Santa Anita park, up East Saturday. Of the 40 races being the first five days, 23 were by California-breds. They took down $89,905 in horses. An additional $9,520.50 was awarded California breeders. B. B. Mayer tops the California hens and breeders, not only by due of his smashing three-way lymph in the $25,000 Breeders Champion Stakes, but also due to consistent winning of his one-breds in open competition. Yu Pere is listed as the lead Western sire, his get having named $24,140 in first monies. Biscuits come second, with tree winners of $6,415. Of the 218 stables registered at Arcadia plant, 202 of them Western-owned, leaving but from the East. There are 1,506 horses housed at the track and of its number, only 195 head are from the East. This means that 11 thoroughbreds are registering in the names of Western own-attracted by the most valuable kites and purses ever promised for home-bred horses many racetrack in the state, including the $50,000 Santa Catalina and the $25,000 Breeders Champion, as well as rich daily earmight purses, the largest number of locally-owned and lofty-bred horses in the history of Santa Anita racing are now added down in its stabling area. They dominate the Eastern representation by better than ten to eleven. Hunters, Armed Only With Hats, To Seek Wolves Plans are afoot for an Orange county coyote drive under auspices of the Anaheim chapter of the Izaak Walton league, in which members of other chapters of the sportsmen's organization may participate. Suggestion for the affair was voiced by A. B. (Bud) Paschall at a recent meeting of the organization, and met with favorable response. "Every orange grove in this territory has from one to a dozen or more coyotes skulking about," Paschall declared. "Why, I know one rancher who is so bothered by these pests that he has to bring his dogs to the house and tie them on the porch at night, to guarantee he may have a night's rest without being awakened* by the noise the rascals make trying to make off with something to eat." The Anaheim Ikes probably will enlist participation of other sportsmen in the drive, which will be conducted along safety first lines, in that the hunters who drive through the orchards in a close line will be armed only with baseball bats. Men with shotguns will be stationed on dikes, waiting to accord the animals a warm welcome as they come within range in attempt to escape the drivers. Such plan will remove danger of injury to the participants, such as would exist if each were armed with a gun. The baseball bats will be sufficient to prevent escape of any coyotes that may try to run the gauntlet through the line of drivers, it is believed. Definite date for the hunt is yet to be decided. Paschall delivers fruits in sufficient supply to make them available for volume export. "On the average, smaller supplies of raisins, pears, apples, tree nuts, potatoes and dry edible beans should be available for export even though in some seasons, the volume of individual commodities may be relatively high." About 7 per cent more cattle and 25 per cent fewer lambs on feed than a year ago is indicated by a recent check on feeding operations. More cattle will be fed this season than last in nearly all of the 11 corn belt states and in most other important feeding states. The total number of cattle fed this season may be close to a record with the proportion of relatively short fed cattle (30 to 60 days) larger than in any recent year. The actual number short fed will probably exceed all previous records. Though Califronia imports feed and some other farm commodities, most of its production finds a market out of state. An appreciable quantity finds its way into Canada and foreign countries. Recent approval by congress of an appropriation for the UNRRA means hope for millions of war stricken peoples and will stave off disease and hunger in large sections of the world. It will also provide an outlet for some of this state's production which might otherwise be in excess of the domestic market. New farm machinery, particularly wheel tractors and haying equipment, is still scarce. A substantial production increase, however, has been made this fall in wheel tractors, sprayers, dusters, orchard heaters, and irrigation equipment. Special consideration through the AAA is given to returned veterans who own or operate a farm through the issu- AO DIRECTOR GENERAL CHOSEN Sir John Boyd Orr has been unanimously chosen first director general of the food and agricultural organization of the United States. Howard R. Tolley, U.S. Secretary member of FAO, acting on the absence of Secretary Anderson, describes Sir John as an important scientist, a distinguished scholar, an experienced legislator and a successful farmer. John Orr was born in Ayrshire, Scotland in 1880. He holds Glasgow University degrees in the arts, sciences and in medicine. He founded the Rowett institute for research in animal nutrition in Aberdeen, Scotland, and was director until his recent election to parliament as representative of the Scottish universities. In his first press conference as FAO director general, Sir John said that FAO is the world's answer to the atomic bomb. If the nations can agree on food, they can agree on other matters. He believes the first FAO regional offices and experiment stations should be in Asia, where there is the greatest hunger and greatest need for better farming methods. THE "DONE IT"! Impossible? Hunt-uh. That's what Quincy Hunt of Santa Ana said to win the distance fly-casting contest in the Anaheim Izaak Walton league casting tournament at La Palma park last Sunday. Jerry Young, former Placencia rancher, who now spends his summer at a home on a good fishing stream in Oregon and his winters at Long Beach, wasn't far behind, with 126 feet. Roy Fox, who retired after 36 years as a mail clerk running out of Chicago and who now makes his home at Garden Grove, stood out in the contest like a streamlined train in a freight terminal. He won three of the five events, and chalked up the only perfect score of the day by winning the wet fly contest with a sparkling 90. Young was a close second. AAA AND THE FARMER EXPORT OUTLOOK As the leading state in production of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables, California will be interested in the recent statement by C. W. Kitchen, assistant administrator of the P. & M. A., from which we quote in part: "Based upon the information now available, exports of fruits and vegetables during the next few years are not likely to be very substantial." "Although there are many would-be consumers in foreign lands, conditions of one kind or another are likely to limit the movement into other countries of American-produced horticultural commodities. Among these conditions of one kind or another are: available dollar exchange deficiency in purchasing power in importing countries; competition from areas with lower price structures and probable increased demand in domestic markets for most of these products. "Competition may be expected from Canada, Australia, Argentina, and Chile, on European demand for apples and pears; Spain, Italy, Palestine and South Africa, for oranges; Australia, Argentina, Chile, South Africa, the Mediterranean, and Middle East areas for dried fruits. "If the purchasing power of United States consumers is maintained at the level now set as a goal—something less than the record high wartime level, but substantially above the pre-war level—we can be sure that the best market for our fruits and vegetables will be at home. "Under these circumstances, only a limited number of fruits and vegetables may be produced in sufficient volume to provide a surplus for export at prices obtainable in export markets. Oranges, grapefruit and dried prunes also provide an outlet for some of this state's production which might otherwise be in excess of the domestic market. New farm machinery, particularly wheel tractors and haying equipment, is still scarce. A substantial production increase, however, has been made this fall in wheel tractors, sprayers, dusters, orchard heaters, and irrigation equipment. Special consideration through the AAA is given to returned veterans who own or operate a farm through the issuance of preference certificates for new machinery. The average of all farm prices during November reached a level of 205 per cent of the base period, 1909-1914. The peak level of 208 per cent was reached in June and July of this year. To offset this, prices paid by farmers for machinery, fertilizer, feed, household supplies, construction materials, groceries, interest taxes, etc., attained their highest index since 1920 or 175 per cent. Comparison of prices received by farmers with prices paid gives a current parity relationship of 117 per cent better than during the base period when farm prices were considered to be on an even level with non-farm prices. Synonym: A handy word that you use when you can't spell the other one. An acre of ground may have 18 tons of earth brought to the surface yearly by earthworms. Roy Fox, who retired after 36 years as a mail clerk running out of Chicago and who now makes his home at Garden Grove, stood out in the contest like a streamlined train in a freight terminal. He won three of the five events, and chalked up the only perfect score of the day by winning the wet fly contest with a sparkling 100. Young was a close second, with 99. Fox also won the dry fly and the 5/8-ounce plug contests. His 97 in the former event topped Roy Mabee's 95, and he scored 96 on the latter to beat Jim Corbel of Long Beach, with 92. Fax is well known in casting circles, having participated in a dozen national tournaments. Right commodities may be available in the right amounts. Recommendations of the meeting will be reviewed by Washington, and official announcement of state goals along with more definite information on 1946 price supports will be announced in January. At the present time, about two-thirds of all farm commodities are supported at 90 percent of parity. Salt is used today for money in most of the Ethiopian Empire and a chunk, the size of an egg, would buy a chicken. Almost 200 newspapers now maintain current and past files on microfilm.
