Aksel Oas Tells Rotarians Of Trip to Norway Aksel Oas gave his fellow Rotarians some of the highlights of his trip with his family to Norway last summer at the meeting of the Anaheim club Monday. Disasterous as the German occupation of the country was during the war, he said, it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: it did one valuable thing: Local Grower Has Unorthodox But Produces King Size Valencia Highway Patrol Tries to Fill 117 Vacancies (Western News Service) The California Highway Patrol created as a separate state agency October 1, is short of manpower, but efforts are being made to bring the staff to full strength; Clifford E. Peterson, commissioner, has informed Governor Warren. The department needs, he said, an assistant chief, two state traffic inspectors, four state traffic captains, five state traffic sergeants, 104 traffic officers and one motor vehicle investigator grade 2. Peterson said efforts are being made to have the patrol offices in one location by next April 1. Officers of the patrol arrested 37 auto thieves during October, impounded 469 vehicles, conducted 255 investigations in caravan activities, and reported 27 cases of felony hit and run driving to bring the total for the year to 249 cases. Arrests have been made in 101 of these cases. Pheasant Season Open Until Jan. 15 in Places (Western News Service) The thousands of pheasant hunters who went home disappointed this year may be pleased to learn they can hunt pheasants until January 15.

Disasterous as the German occupation of the country was during the war, he said, it did one valuable thing for the Norwegians. Now that they have their freedom again, they value it more than they did before they lost it for a while. The country is more united than it ever was before. And churches are held in higher esteem than they have ever been in the history of the country. An interesting feature was this visit to a Rotary club in Oslo. He concluded a little talk he had been asked to make by presenting the club with a silk American flag, whereupon the whole club membership stood in honor of this country's ensign. Everywhere he went in Norway there were hearty expressions of gratitude for help received from America during and after the war. New Telephone Hour Broadcasts A galaxy of guest stars will appear this month in the four remaining Telephone Hour broadcasts, reflecting the holiday spirit, according to R. J. Rossberg, manager of The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company here. The programs are Monday evenings at 9 o'clock over NBC stations. Two pianists and a violinist, winners of the annual musical auditions conducted through the Walter W. Naumburg Musical Foundations, who had debut recitals in New York's Town Hall, were heard over last Monday's Bell program. They were accompanied by the Bell Telephone orchestra of 57 pieces and the chorus, directed by Donald Voorhees. Ezio Pinza, noted Metropolitan basso, will present a varied repertoire with the orchestra. Appearing with him will be his daughter, Claudia, and Glenn Burris, American tenor, in the trio from "Faust." On December 15, lascha Heifetz, renowned violinist, will return to the hour to play many favorite selections. A special Christmas program will be presented December 22, with Mrs. Blanche Thacher. Pheasant Season Open Until Jan. 15 in Places (Western News Service) The thousands of pheasant hunters who went home disappointed this year may be pleased to learn they can hunt pheasants until January 15, provided they know the right people. The State Division of Fish and Game called this to the attention of hunters when it emphasized the rules covering the special hunting season for pheasants and quail on commercial and non-commercial game management areas. The rules provide that 70 percent of the birds released in these areas may be killed from November 1 to January 15, including hen pheasants. Hunters shooting around game management areas this year claim hundreds of birds were driven into the areas, which usually are closed to shooting during the open season for the ordinary hunter. Emil J. N. Ott, Jr., chief of the Division of Fish and Game, denied that the state releases birds in game management areas, declaring the operators of all such areas obtain their birds from private breeders. The birds are banded in the game management area. The state, Ott said, has released between 45 and 50 thousand pheasants this year, "in areas where the division feels they will be of the most benefit to the public." Ott said that generally, the division does not seek to release birds on posted lands, but pointed out that releases no doubt have been made on lands later posted against hunting. The birds, if released at all, must be released on private lands, he said. TB Cases In State Up 100 In One Year (Western News Service) Venereal diseases continued to run high in California during the first nine months of this year, but the total was down from a similar period in 1946, according to the State Department of Health. Gonococcus infection was high with 24,391 cases reported as compared to 25,063 last year. Syphills cases totaled 17,227 against 18,739 trines preached by the ous citrus growing autumn.

Robert Casadesus, brilliant pianist, will complete the 1947 Bell Telephone broadcasts, with his appearance December 29. Lemon Growers To Vote on New Marketing Order Growers of California and Arizona lemons will vote in a referendum on amendments to the lemon marketing agreement and order program. The amendments provide that lemons grown in Arizona and the desert regions of California may be subject to regulations differing from those for the rest of California and that the shipments within California and Arizona may be regulated. Hitherto regulations have applied only to lemons in interstate shipment. The U.S. Department of Agriculture late last week recommended adoption of the amendments. Its decision was based on testimony received at three public hearings last December and last August in Los Angeles and Phoenix. The date for the referendum and the manner of voting had not been announced this week. Ask your banker how good an investment U.S. Savings bonds are. Unorthodox Ideas Growing Size Valencias Orange growers who are lamenting the small Valencias they produced during the season just closing might spare a few minutes to rejoice with one grower whose 20 acres between Anaheim and Garden Grove produced this year more 176s than 252s and 288s combined. He is one of the only two Orange county growers whose crop peaked on 200s the Gazette has; so far heard of, though, of course there may be others in that prosperous class. He forbade use of his name because he said the result would be nothing but trouble. If his name were used, he explained, he would be asked what he did to grow such big sizes. "I wouldn't mind telling how," he added, "if it would do any grower any good. But when I have answered such questions in the past the invariable reply has been that I am crazy." But he didn't mind discussing his cultural methods anonymously. And at least two of his ideas are, indeed, contrary to the doctrines preached by the most famous citrus growing authorities. One idea which he has put into practice for many years is that orange trees should be irrigated heavily but at rare intervals. "Irrigation is bad for an orange tree," he says. "It is contrary to nature. But much as it injures a tree, the damage would be worse if the tree were given no water at all. So my idea is that it shouldn't be without water but should be irrigated." Future Farmers Win at Stock Show (Continued from Page 1) western states in the heavyweight Hereford class alone. Glen Bell's middleweight Angus which placed third in its class, Jim Dawson's heavyweight Angus which took fourth prize and the first prize pen of Angus steers shown by the Fullerton chapter were all among the carload of Angus calves brought to Orange county last spring from eastern Iowa and in the purchase of which Future Farmers of this county were financed by the Bank of America livestock division. A second place winner shown by a member of the Placentia chapter also was one of the Iowa steers. Herbert Stitt, agriculture teacher in Fullerton high school, believed the boys were going to be well satisfied with their venture in feeding livestock on borrowed money. Report of State Progress Given At GOP Meet (Continued on Page 6) listeners that California's sound fiscal policies and able administration have combined to produce the surpluses which the state now is using for benefit of the people as a whole and the progress of the state at large. No other state in the union can match California's progressiveness, and where it blazed the way with wartime production, it also has pioneered the nation's return to years. Charles W. Musser, Garden Grove, who is vice-president of the Orange County Farm Bureau, was the main speaker at the organization breakfast at which the group was inspired to take a goal which would boost the membership from the present 47,600 to 55,000 for 1948. Resolutions included an expression of appreciation to the State of California for aid in development of agriculture; a general statement on national farm programs; supporting aid to countries to rehabilitate their economy; a program to avoid food losses in 1948 and to conserve grain; a request for true statements of farm income instead of publishing gross income figures; continued study and publication of price spreads; and opposition to open price contracts. "Believing that price cellings will restrict production," said one resolution, "and that only through maximum production can we meet the demands for food and check inflationary prices, the Farm Bureau opposes ceilings on livestock, and on agricultural and livestock products." The group opposed reciprocal trade agreements detrimental to agriculture; opposed investing proprietary interest in lands beneath navigable waters in the federal government, but leaving possession to the states; counseled on procedure in soil and water conservation; supported individual water rights; opposed the 160-acre limitation provisions of the Reclamation Service as applied to settled land; completion of the Central Valley Water project; asked One idea which he has put into practice for many years is that orange trees should be irrigated heavily but at rare intervals. "Irrigation is bad for an orange tree," he says. "It is contrary to nature. But much as it injures a tree, the damage would be worse if the tree were given no water at all. So my idea is that it shouldn't be without water but should be irrigated as infrequently as possible." He says he has taken as long as ten days to irrigate his 20 acres, but ordinarily he irrigates only twice during a summer. He believes that if he puts plenty of water in the ground it will return for a long period to the root zone by capillary action, and bring with it the nutrients in the soil. Another wholly unorthodox idea he follows in practice relates to fertilization. He uses some dairy manure when it is cheap enough, or nitrohumus. But he applies no nitrogen in concentrated form. "Nitrogen to an orange tree," he says, "is like a drink of whiskey to a man. It may act as a temporary stimulus; but its long range effect is detrimental to the tree." Although all the agricultural scientists tell California growers that nitrogen is the only nutrient lacking in citrus groves—excepting only minor elements like zinc and manganese—and that the cases are rare indeed where groves require phosphates and potash, this successful grower applies both potash and phosphates. Dorothy E. Raley Claimed By Death Mrs. Dorothy E. Raley, beloved wife of William H. Raley, passed away at the Covina hospital last Thursday, Nov. 27, at the age of 36 years. Born in Salem, Ark., she had been a resident of Anaheim for the past five years. The family home is at 717 North Lemon street.

No other state in the union can match California's progressiveness, and where it blazed the way with wartime production, it also has pioneered the nation's return to peacetime prosperity, Kuchel said. Nationally, Gov. Warren is powerful, Faries reported. He is well liked and, although many Californians may not know it, Warren also is well known throughout the mid-west and the east. His achievements in California, and his immense popularity with his own people, have not gone unnoticed in the east, Faries declared. Master of ceremonies at the report meeting was Gordon X. Richmond, of Orange, former chairman of the county's Republican Central Committee, which joined with the Republican Assembly, Young Republicans, Council of Republican Women and Pro-America in arranging the affair. Orange Co. Wins Many Honors At State Meeting Continued from Page 1 clave. Santa Cruz county provided free apples throughout the meeting. Garden Grove center was awarded a cup for having the largest Farm Bureau center in the state, with 643 members reported for 1947. Another cup was awarded the county permanently for having had the largest center during 1944, 1945 and 1946. It was won by Anaheim center in 1944 and the next two years by Garden Grove. S. W. Stanley, state director for region No. 1, resigned and was replaced by Maurice Perry, Hemet, who was reared in Orange and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Perry.
