WAR TO THE DEATH ON CITRUS APHIS War to the death! not one green citrus aphis esthis was the counsel that county cultural commissioners gave locitrus growers today. or, with the advent of warmer ther great damage will be done orange and lemon trees of this on by the green citrus aphis, a ing insect, unless remedial meature taken, according to E. L. is, county horticultural com­ miser and Deputy Commissioned E. Paddock. the same time that the commi­ ners issued their warning and advice for relentless war on this pest, they gave out strategic as to how the growers may best their battle plans. here are two species of Aphis, black said, the green citrus aphis the black aphis. It is the former does most of the damage, the aphis being practically harm­ The green aphis makes its ap­ ance in warm weather and can be detected by a curling up of leaves. Paddock says orchardists should in a war on the pests by means liquid spray, composed of lime sulphur, or better still, use a aration known as Nico-Dust, which is put up by the California but Growers' association and can be obtained from the local ch. Nico-Dust is composed of nicotine hate and kaolin and the prepara­ is said to be death to the aphis. liquid spray used in eradicating insect is a mixture of lime, sul­ and "black leaf 40." The dust is altered more effective by Pad­ according to the horticulturalists; imperature of 70 degrees makes stable conditions more favorable n war on the insects, especially when the dry dust is used. Paddock urges all citrus growers to get a supply of Nico-Dust or use a liquid spray in eradicating the aphis, otherwise a big loss in citrus crops will result, in his prediction. Another insect that is already at work in the orange and lemon groves is the citrusred spider. Paddock says that more of these spiders are noticeable this year than usual due to the comparatively small amount of rainfall. Gopher Demonstrations Begin Next Tuesday Much work has been done to control the damage of gophers and squirrels in the field and grove. Farmers are continually after the pest, some are successful, others not. There are shortcuts and knacks to this work, if thoroly under­stood, would greatly increase the efficiency of efforts made to kill or trap the rodents. W. C. Jacobsen, State Superintendent of Rodent-Control work, will show best methods of trapping, poisoning and gassing at the series of demonstrations arranged by the Farm Bureau throut the county. The office of the Horticultural Commission will assist at these meetings. The day meetings will be held in the field. At night meetings, an illustrated lecture will be given, showing stereopticon views of methods of control and the work throut the state. Saying gophered trees will be discussed at all meetings.

Farm-Advisor Wahlberg extends an invitation to all walnut growers of the county to a topworking demonstration at the old Neff orchards, two miles south and west of Anaheim on Cerritos or Neff-ave, corner Palm-st. The date set is Monday, March 14th, at 2 p.m. Dr. L. D. Baicheler of the Citrus Experiment Station and D. C. Wylie of the field department of the Walnut Growers' Assn., will conduct the demonstration. Growers who plan to do topworking after the demonstration are advised to cut their scions at this time and store away in sand. Besides showing actual methods of top grafting, examples of tree surgery will be shown in the large trees. Mr. C. A. Ebart is manager of the grove where the demonstration is to be held. Review of Present Dairying Situation The principal influences which are at present affecting prices for dairy products are largely temporary. When it became impossible to export any more condensed milk, on account of the European money situation, the condenseries stopped buying. The English government is still controlling the butter business in that country. It is buying only a little butter from other nations and rationing butter to the English people. Because it would not pay the world price for butter, New Zealand refused to sell her exportable surplus to the Mother Country, and shipped considerable of it to the United States, thru California, because she could get higher prices here. The readjustment that has been going on in the great manufacturing cities of the East has reduced the buying ability of the people. City Briefs M. H. Moore spent Sunday in Los Angeles. George M.

The English government is still controlling the butter business in that country. It is buying only a little butter from other nations and rationing butter to the English people. Because it would not pay the world price for butter, New Zealand refused to sell her exportable surplus to the Mother Country, and shipped considerable of it to the United States. thru California, because she could get higher prices here. The readjustment that has been going on in the great manufacturing cities of the East has reduced the buying ability of the people. Importations of Danish butter, on top of this condition, aided in the depressing effect on values. Probably this depressed condition will continue for a short time, but all indications point to an improvement soon. Condenseries are slowly working off their surplus stocks, and will begin purchasing milk as soon as they get down to normal. It is believed the English government will lift its restrictions on butter during the spring. There is no more to come from New Zealand, and Danish importations will not be large after the English market opens up. We are already hearing of the respmption of employment and business activity throughout the East. It would appear, therefore, that the market for dairy products in 1921 will be a very satisfactory condition. The great opportunity before the dairy industry is to increase the sale of milk, butter, cheese, and ice cream, in the cities of California and the United States. Americans drink about 42 gal- Tractor Specialist Here For 6 Meetings The Farm Bureau has arranged six meetings and demonstrations this week for a discussion of farm tractor operation, taking up the subjects of tractor economy, types of tractor, adjustment for minimum operation costs, fuel, lubrication.

Coalinga-Mohawk Is Still In Oil Sands Newport Field. The features of the Newport field for the week are not many in number, but of considerable importance. The Coalinga-Mohawk is drilling now at 3675, the formation continues in that nice oil sand encountered at 2500 feet, but unfortunately it does not carry any oil. In its efforts to exhaust the water at No. 1, the H. T. & K. syndicate is giving up the job and is getting ready to drill deeper. The Interstate Oil Co.'s No. 1 on the mesa is now at 3200 feet and is looking good in the brown shale. Norris No. 1 is drilling at 2300 feet. The Laguna Oil Assn is drilling in brown shale at 1350. The Teopotala Co. is close to 700 barrels. According to the best reports available this district well is looking very encouraging. He Paulkner Oil Co.'s No. 1.now at 1625 feet, announces that about a 125 feet of oil sand has already been drilled thru. The Newport field's late new comers includes 2 oil companies. The Santa Ana Petroleum Co., largely backed, has it reported, leased liberally on the Irvine ranch. The second concern, the Big Pool Oil Co., has changed its name to the Nu Santa Oil Assn. The Long Beach Consolidated's No. 1 is now drilling in sandy shale at 2050. As yet this well has not shown a great deal of encouragement. The Northland is still fishing at 1030. Westminster is scheduled to be the location of the next big oil excitement in So. Calif. The Westminster Oil Co. on an $80 acre tract has about completed arrangements to start drilling. The new company is backed by Westminster and Pomona capital. Sport Oxford Smart sport styles with either brown or trimmings. New stock, all sizes.
