Farm Section COUNTY DAIRYMEN MAKE BIG SHOWING The Farm Bureau received a report from the Dairy Division U. S. Department of Animal Husbandry. This report is from the Western office, including California, Idaho, Washington, Colorado, Oregon, Orange-co Cowtesting Assn., making some real progress and in fact is leading all other associations in Johnston-Wickett Clinic Clinic Building, Anaheim Dr. H. A. Johnston General Surgery Dr. W. H. Wickett Genral surgery Dr. J. A. Jackson X-ray and Radium Dr. V. P. Osburn Internal Medicine Dr. H. D. Newkirk Dr. R. D. Alkman, Assistant Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Dr. H. van de Erve Pathology Dr. J. Robinson Diseases of Children Dr. A. H. Galvin Orthoepedics J. S. Ward, Ph. G. Pharmacy Forty pounds butterfat is looked upon as deciding point in practically every association. Orange-co had 545 cows tested in December with 156 going 40 pounds of butterfat or over, which is 29 pct. This is the highest pet, of any association reported. Los Angeles-co came second with about 21 pct of cows tested going over the mark. The best herd averages in associations (herds over 15 cows) shows one of the leading Orange-co milk producers, F. T. Altken, eighth on the list. He has a herd of 20 cows with herd average of 41.8 pounds butterfat. Also for herds under 15 cows Orange-co again got honorable mention. C.B. McCall, milking six cows, has herd average of 40.5 pounds. The leading cows in each association were listed. A grade Holstein belonging to H.A. Youngkin from Corona produced 125.7 pounds Grisel Bros. Jersey with record of 86.5 pounds for the month was the local high producer. In the average of the five best cows in each association, Orange-co came fourth. Los Angeles Association showed 108.1 pounds while the local association figured 81.7 pounds fat. This summary made at the Salt Lake office shows that the dairymen in Orange-co are wide awake and thrue the Dairy Department of the Farm Bureau are building up better herds of high producing cows. CORONA REPORTS SHOWING At a little less than 700 feet the Corona Oil Co., is reported to have had a showing of oil. As this depth is considered shallow the showing is not given very much consideration. Dance at Olinda Thursday.

COMMISSION PROBE RIGHT STEP By a Farm Bureau Member The legislative committee now inquiring into the causes of the unpopularity of the present state railroad commission has to deal with one of the greatest problems of the times. The activities of this commission cover an immense field including irrigation, transportation, telephone and electric power rates and its decisions directly affect the living expenses of every family in the state. It has been said, and is probably true, that this commission is more than half the government of the state. As the power companies require enormous sums for new projects one of the largest problems of the commission is to establish the credit of these corporations so they can obtain the money and one of the principal causes of the consumers' dissatisfaction is that the commission has failed to devise any method of founding the corporations credit on the credit of its customers, but has tried to bolster up their poor credit by authorizing high rates of interest. This policy it futile; high rates of interest indicate lack of security; the tangible assets of the corporations are the secondary value in establishing their credit, for with a public utility company whose rates are fixed by a state commission the foundation of their credit is the satisfaction of the consumers with the rate making policy of the commission and their agreement and ability to pay necessary rates for service. The commission's plan of regulating the operating expenses of the corporations too, nearly resembles the cost, plus percentage system by which the public has been so outrageously robbed to be popular and the consumers believe the commission has failed to make the profits of the companies depend on economy of operation. The methods by which the consumers are trying to change these policies are to be commended by all good citizens. They have appealed to the governor to change the commissioners and have planned to elect representatives in the legislature. seed beds, irrigation, cultivation and harvesting on a large commercial scale. These ten boys are members of a vegetable garden club, growing cabbage, peas and lettuce, and is organized in the form of a contest in their community. Mr. Osborne, one of the Irvine leases, has some 300 acres of cabbage planted. He showed the party over the ranch, pointing out his method of resetting, caring for and harvesting of crop. A large planting of lettuce and cabbage is also managed by Mr. Newton. He showed and explained to the boys the tools and implements used for carrying on his gardening. He has made some very interesting crosses of commercial varieties of cabbage which was explained and also the practical method of spraying for cabbage aphis. Celery is shipped in car lots from this ranch. Soil types, planting and harvesting for this crop were discussed by Farm Advisor Wahlberg. The whole club expressed themselves very favorably on the tour and learned many things which they can apply on their home gardens. The party was supervised by Wahlberg and Assistant Farm Advisor Waters. ARCADIA WILDCAT CONTINUES FISHING Montebello Fishing still continues at the Arcadia Oil Co.'s wild cat well in the Montebello field. Washing over and cutting out has resulted in the removal of more than half of the lost drill pipe. The hole will probably be celared before the end of the week and drilling resumed in new hole. The redrilling and recovering work on the General Petroleum's Cruz No. 3 is going nicely at 3060. Eighty feet more of sidetracking and redrilling and the tools will be on bottom again.

They stated they are very much enthused with the business prospects of this city and California development work. ing the operating expenses of the corporations too, nearly resembles the cost, plus percentage system by which the public has been so outrageously robbed to be popular and the consumers believe the commission has failed to make the profits of the companies depend on economy of operation. The methods by which the consumers are trying to change these policies are to be commended by all good citizens. They have appealed to the governor to change the commissioners and have planned to elect representatives in the legislature who will take steps to change the policy of the commission. The situation is full of menace to the power companies and innocent investors, and the legislature can do no greater public service than by bringing the power companies to recognize the supreme importance of gaining the good will of the power users. It is less important to develop water power quickly than to develop it under proper control; it is less important to increase the area of productive agricultural land than to give farmers now producing a reasonable return for their labor and investment. GARDEN CLUB EXCURSION Ten enthusiastic boy gardeners from Costa Mesa district enjoyed an afternoon excursion to see the large vegetable plantings on Irvine ranch and study methods of preparation of COALINGA-MOHAWK HELD UP WITH IRON Newport Field The Coaliga-Mohawk is being held up at No. 1 on account of iron in the hole at 3300.

A new company known as the Big Pool Oil Co. has taken a lease on the 1500-acre Moulton ranch at Irvine and will begin immediate operation. The ne wcompany is backed by Santa Ana capital headed by C. S. Crookshank, local banker. A late report from the Topothal Oil Co., a wild cat drilling in Trabuco Canyon claims that quite a showing of oil was struck at 600 feet.

The Ford Truck is a necessity to the grocer both in delivering goods and in bringing goods from the stations, docks and from the country.
