"The Scooter King of Orange County" Orange Market Has Biggest Week of Year From the standpoint of volume and price, the orange market last week had its biggest week so far this season. The price average was down about 10 cents a box, but the volume of sales was up considerably from the preceding week. There was an active demand for all sizes, though 62 per cent of the fruit sold was 252s and smaller. In the auctions this week prices were a little lower than at the corresponding time last week. Fancy brand 176s averaged $6.94, compared to $7.37, delivered, a week earlier; 220s of the same grade, averaged $5.77, compared to $6.11 a week earlier; 288s brought $3.81, compared to $3.92, but 344s averaged a little higher—$3.43 compared to $3.36 a week earlier. There was still strong competition from local fruits but peach shipments last week began to decline from their summer peak. In spite of greatly increased shipments, lemons continued to sell at the high prices they brought the preceding week. The average for all sizes and all grades in all markets was still slightly above $9.50 a box. The top price for the week was brought by a car of Ontario's Citrus Fruit Growers Bear brand which brought $17.75, delivered, in Philadelphia a week ago yesterday. In spite of a decided modification which has blanketed the east of the Rockies, lemons continued active, day's average was 40 cents higher than the average preceding Monday. In some markets these sizes were bringing a larger sizes. This week's orange production 1800 cars but it has been 1700 for next week. The prorate this week was compared to a three-year of 263 cars.

Tomato Growers Depend on Good Consumer Income If good times continue, with high consumer buying power and reasonably steady prices, California tomato growers can expect large sales. If another depression occurs, they will be hit hard. That's the prediction of Dr. Walter D. Fisher, College of Agriculture farm economist, in Circus 369 "Canning Tomatoes Situation in California, 1947." This circular is available free of charge from the farm advisor's office, 104 West 8th street, Santa Ana, according to H. W. Longfellow, assistant farm advisor. High consumer income, population growth, and changed eating habits have combined to create a greater market for tomato products. Fisher writes. The most decisive influence on market demand is consumer incomes—that is, earnings minus taxes. This is the amount of money a buyer can afford to spend on various foods. This collective consumer income is home, with its ups and downs, determines how large a pack can MORE PERMAMENT PASTURES NEEDED Roy L. Hale, chairman of the Orange county Agricultural Conservation Committee, this week reminded farmers that establishment of permanent pastures is one of the practices under the Agricultural Conservation program (ACP). Permanent pastures provide a year-around cover for land and prevent excessive wind and water erosion, he stated. At the same time they provide the forage needed for dairy and livestock programs. Chairman Hale said that under the ACP farmers would receive 80 percent of cost of seed for establishing this much needed cover. In this county, the practice calls for seeding of adopted grasses and legumes. Rates and amounts of seed are determined individually. Additional information about this practice can be obtained by getting in touch with the county Agricultural Conservation Association office at Santa Ana. He said that according to surveys made by the county committee many acres more should be planted to permanent pastures than are now planted in the county. POTATO GROWERS WANT MARKETING AGREEMENT are cooperating with them will run around 215 million trees. That compared with a production of a little more than 81 million trees during the year 1946. The reports also indicate that for the country as a whole this supply of trees will be sufficient to take care of about half of the demand for trees. Last winter the nurseries had to limit the number of trees that any one farmer could have and could supply only a small part of the seedling trees that farmers wanted. The Forest Service has estimated that if farmers were to complete recommended conservation plantings on fram lands it would require the planting of 1 million acres a year for the next 25 years. Since it takes about a thousand trees to plant an acre, 1 billion trees would be needed to carry out the program. PROPOSE WALNUT GRADE CHANGES The Walnut Control Board, which represents the walnut growers on the Pacific Coast, is proposing to bring its grades up to date. The 1942 crop was the last one sold under the grades specified in the marketing agreement and order. While the marketing order was suspended considerable changes took place in the specification of walnuts. If the present proposals are adopted the specifications of the marketing agreement and order will be the same as present commercial practicess an opinion about such proposals may do so by writing to the Walnut Control Board, Los Angeles 21, California.

The most decisive influence on market demand is consumer incomes—that is, earnings minus taxes. This is the amount of money a buyer can afford to spend on various foods.

California now produces more than one third of the nation's canning tomatoes, and puts up about two thirds of the tomato paste and sauces. 20 County 4-H Clubbers At State Conclave Twenty Orange county 4-H Club boys and girls will meet with more than 1000 4-H delegates at the 27th annual convention at the University of California, Davis, August 28, 29 and 30. The delegates left Wednesday morning under the charge of H. Longfellow of the Agricultural Extension Service and Mrs. Ivan Elliott, Orange county 4-H Club council president. The Agricultural Extension Service has arranged the program and will supervise the convention. A convention staff of Senior 4-H club members will be in direct charge of all activities. The program will reveal a wide variety of activities, including lectures and demonstrations and programs prominent scientists and teachers. There will be assemblies for aging, inspiration, and recreational periods for swimming, sports, visits to various parts of the campus. The entertainment will include evening programs, a trip to the State Fair and participation in a colorful 4-H Club ceremony and parade with the entire 20 delegates.

He said that according to surveys made by the county committee many acres more should be planted to permanent pastures than are now planted in the county. POTATO GROWERS WANT MARKETING AGREEMENT Another group of potato growers want to get the advantages that will come to them through operating under a marketing agreement and order. The territory to be covered by the agreement would cover all of Wyoming and a little more than the western one-fourth of Nebraska. The proposed agreement would regulate the size and quality of potatoes sold in the area. RYEGRASS SEED DISTRIBUTION UNDER WAY The government is moving some of its stockpile of 18 million pounds of common ryegrass seed from the Pacific Northwest nearer to the South so that it will be more convenient for southern farmers and seedsmen when the time for planting winter cover crop arrives. From present indications there will not be enough common ryegrass seed of this year's crop in places where needed when it comes time to plant winter cover crops. Seed is offered in carlots of at least 60 thousand pounds and packaged in 100-pound bags. The price of the seed will be $8.10 a hundred for top grade seed f.o.b. the Pacific Northwest, with the freight and federal transportation tax added to the price of the seed. HEARING SCHEDULED ON NEW INSECTICIDE LAW A public hearing at which rules and regulations for the administration and enforcement of the new Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act will be considered is to be held in Washington by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on August 25. This new law, passed by the recent Congress, regulates the marketing of insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides, herbicides, and devices. It is intended to give everyone greater protection than under the former Insecticide Act of 1910 which will be replaced as the new law goes into effect. Provisions of the new law that relate to traps, lights, and other devices Anyone who wishes to ex-fications of walnuts. If the present proposals are adopted the specifications of the marketing agreement and order will be the same as present commercial press an opinion about such proposals may do so by writing to the Walnut Control Board, Los Angeles 21, California. WOOL PRICE SUPPORTS RESUMED The Department of Agriculture resumed the price support program on wool August 15. The program will continue through December 31, 1948. Wool owned by producers on August 15 will be eligible for purchase. The program will operate through wool handlers who will act as agents of the Commodity Credit Corporation in purchasing and handling wool. The support price schedule is in line with 1946 supports when the average pre-war price was slightly more than 42 cents a pound, grease basis. Some adjustments will be made this year between prices—more will be paid for fine wools and a little less for the lower grade wools for which there is less demand. The program was re-established under new legislation passed by the 80th Congress and approved by the President. This legislation provides for price support at the 1946 level but makes it possible for CCC to sell its stocks on a competitive basis. Previous legislation required such wool be sold at not less than parity. WINTER VEGETABLE GUIDES FOR 1948 RECOMMENDED The Department of Agriculture announced and recommended for consideration by USDA State Councils for Arizona, California, Florida, Louisiana, Oregon, Texas and Virginia an acreage for winter vegetables in 1948 3 percent below that planted for the 1947 winter season. In 1947 production of winter vegetables was appreciably reduced by freeze damage. It totaled 1,270,400 tons, or 11 percent below production in 1946. Acreages recommended this year, with average yields, would result in a production 6 percent greater than in 1947 and 16 percent more than average production for the last 10 years. Acreage increases for 1948 were recommended for lima beans, beets, lettuce and shallots, and reductions for snap beans, carrots, tion's laying flock was the same size as it was ary 1 this year.

MORE TREES AVAILABLE NEXT YEAR More farmers will be able to get the trees they want for con­servation plantings this coming winter. The Forest Service reports that the output of nurseries that WHEAT, RYE, POTATO GOALS SUGGESTED FOR 1948 National production goals for 1948 crops of wheat, rye, and potatoes were announced by the De­partment of Agriculture. These goals are being referred to states for local consideration and pos­sible adjustment within the na­tional pattern. The goal for wheat is 75 million planted acres, about the same as the 1947 indicated acreage, ex­cluding volunteer wheat, but 8 percent larger than the prewar 1937-41 average. This would be the fourth largest wheat acreage farmers in this country have ever planted, being exceeded only in 1919, 1937, and 1938. A rye goal of 2.3 million acres is proposed for harvest in 1948. This is 347,000 acres larger than the acreage indicated for harvest in 1947. Largely because of com­petition from other crops for avail­able land, rye acreage has declin­ed steadily for a number of years. Requirements for potatoes dur­ing the 1948 crop year are expect­ed to total 375 million bushels, close to the volume which moved into commercial channels from the record 1946 crop. The total potato goal for 1948 is, therefore, recom­mended at 2,370,700 acres, with a suggested commercial acreage of 1,512,100, the same as the 1947 commercial goal. "Commercial" acreage is defined as that on farms having three or more acres of potatoes. Actual production in 1947, however, differs somewhat from the goal in that the early commercial potato crop was 10 million bushels above the goal, while the late crop, according to July 1 crop prospects, is likely to be less than the goal. FARM BRIEFS There used to be hot arguments whether one of agriculture's troubles was overproduction or underconsumption. Those who supported the underconsumption idea can point to the situation with meat now... along in the period from 1935 to 1939 we were only eating 126 pounds per capita. Now we are eating 153 pounds per capita... in spite of the fact that beef slaughter is at record levels, there isn't enough to meet the demand. The number of chickens on farms on July 1 was about the same as a year ago. Young chicken numbers were up sharply in the north Atlantic and western states. But these increases were balanced by decreases in the south Atlantic and south central states. Looking ahead to the beginning of next year it looks as if the nation's laying flock will be about the same size as it was on January 1 this year. "Vaccines have no place in the campaign to eradicate foot-and-mouth disease from Mexico," is the stand which officials in charge of the eradication program have taken. The officials point out that vaccination has not led to complete suppression of the disease nor to complete prevention. Some vaccinated animals never become fully resistant to the vaccine.
