90 Pot. in No. Orange Co.
About 90 per cent of the 1100 acres of cabbage are in northern Orange co.
The small yield is bringing very flattering prices, Secretary Wallop announcing that last week's returns averaging between $70 and $80 per ton.
The failure of the crop is due to the early, cold and dry weather. The early cabbage starting very early and then going to seed. The late cabbage is looking very fine todate and will make a good crop if there is more rain.
The potato crop also will be light, according to present prospects, with unusually small acreage, growers curtailing acreage because of the very poor crop last fall.
Beans Next on Menu
It is too early to determine acreage to beans and sweet potatoes which, however, are expected to be greater in proportion than cabbage and potatoes.
There is continually dwindling territory available for truck farming in northern Orangeco because of the fact that groves are attaining such size that it is no longer desirable to plant truck between the trees.

EXPECT MANY WILL ATTEND FREE AVERY TRACTOR COURSE
The recently recognized importance of the tractor business to the ranchers of Anaheim district, thrust increased production at lower operating costs, is emphasized emphatically by the growth of the Avery Company of Orange County under the direction of Edw. L. Olmstead, manager. Receiving his first shipment only last December, Mr. Olmstead has bought and sold since then a total of 75 Avery tractors.
Probably of even more importance in its lasting benefit to the ranching interests of the district, is the Free Avery Tractor school which has been brought to Anaheim by Mr. Olmstead and which will be held Friday and Saturday of this week at the Avery headquarters here on So. Los Angeles-st.
Over 600 Schools
The Avery Company planned to conduct 500 of these schools this year in the United States and Canada but requests from other centers, includ-
PLAN RECEPTION TO ANAHEIM "VETS"
At a meeting yesterday of the Board of Trade committee on reception to returning soldiers, sailors and marines, preliminary plans were made for a right royal welcome to the veterans. The date has not been set yet, depending upon what time is considered best to catch most of the men at home. It is planned to make the affair a rousing community celebration.
The Board of Trade committee consists of Messrs. McCord, Ahlborn, Prince, Jessurun, Crawford, Graham and Stern.
REDUCE PRECINCTS FOR BOND ELECTION
In order to reduce the expense of the harbor bond election, set for June 10, the supervisors and County Clerk Backs have reduced the number of polling places to the lowest advisable number. For registration and general elections, the county has 107 precincts. For the bond election there will be 57 polling places.
Because of a state law, precincts outside of incorporated cities could not be doubled up for the purposes of this election. Inside incorporated cities, however, the number of polling places was reduced, in Santa Ana from 28 to six. Orange, Anaheim, and Fullerton are to have two polling places each, and Huntington Beach, Brea and Newport Beach will have one each.
Probably of even more importance in its lasting benefit to the ranching interests of the district, is the Free Avery Tractor school which has been brought to Anaheim by Mr. Olmstead and which will be held Friday and Saturday of this week at the Avery headquarters here on So. Los Angeles-st.
Over 600 Schools
The Avery Company planned to conduct 500 of these schools this year in the United States and Canada but requests from other centers, including Anaheim, brought the total to more than 600.
The Anaheim school will be extremely fortunate in having as director, L. R. Van Vankenberg, chief service engineer of the Avery factory and nationally noted tractor expert. Many of the improvements to the Avery are his invention.
The engineer brings with him about half a carload of tractor parts and other pieces of machinery for actual laboratory work on the tractor. A feature of the school will be illustrated lectures showing the work in the factory.
100 Opera Chairs
The school sessions will be from 9 a.m. to 12 noon and from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. The school will be held in the Avery tractor headquarters where opera chairs will be available for an attendance of as high as 100. There is no cost to attend, the school being open to tractor users, present and prospective. A large attendance is indicated.
Friday's sessions will be given to the motor and ignition. Saturday will be given to the tractor and lubrication.
Plans for the school were perfected within the last week when J. B. Bartholomew, millionaire, president of the Avery factory; Glide auto factory and other big industries, and W. W. Rainey, manager of the Los Angeles Avery branch house and other Avery officials visited Anaheim.
Olmstead Inventor
Incidentally while here, Mr. Bartholomew was much interested in an improvement invented by Manager Olmstead to the draw bar attachment, which will probably be put on all Avery hereafter. Mr. Olmstead's idea is to hitch the draw bar from a point ahead of center of the tractor, letting the load assist in swinging the tractor about.
Mr. Bartholomew promised while here that the first carload of motor cultivators, which have just been run thru the factory, would come to So. California where they are expected to prove most advantageous to bean growers as well as all growers of row stuff.

HALF DOZEN CREWS PUTTING IN PIPE
Ben Baxter, concrete pipe manufacturer, reports business the best ever with half a dozen crews putting in pipe on as many ranches. He has just contracted to put in one mile of 12-inch pipe on W. B. Allen's 40-acre ranch at East and Santa Ana仕s.
He has just put in 1000 feet of 14-inch pipe on the 20 acres belonging to H. A. Dickel and Mrs. E. R. Turck on Lemon-st, which is to be subdivided.
He has also put in 1000 feet for J. C. Calloway at Los Angeles and Broad-sts.

Mr. and Mrs. Hilson, parents of Mrs. William Leslie accompanied by Mildred and Ell Leslie, left Monday for Boston, Mass. Mr. and Mrs. William Leslie expect to follow very soon planning to spend the entire summer on the east coast.
