Orange-co Men Favor Grain Exchange Plan Clifford Thorne, attorney for the American Farm Bureau Federation, states there are 41 times as many bushels of grain sold on the exchange as there is grain shipped into Chicago, and over 99 per cent of the sales on the "future's" market are not followed by actual delivery. The number of bushels of wheat bought and sold in the wheat pit of the Chicago Board of Trade averages per year three times as much as the total wheat production in the world. W. H. Hellman, secretary of our State Farm Bureau Federation says: "In spite of these conditions, some of us fail to see why the farmer desires to protect his industry by proper organization! The same condition to a minor degree exists within our own state and the speculator interests and dealers are at this moment exerting most bitter and unfair attacks upon our bulk grain and elevator project; and our exchange plan for handling grain." "We are asking that farmers of California as a unit get behind our elevator and grain projects, both in financing of elevators and support in the matter of grain delivery and sales. We have all the strength and advantage in our own hands as farmers it we will but work together in unity." John Osterman, El Toro, Aaron Buchheim, San Juan Capistrano, Jerome Bros., and other prominent men familiar with the Farm Bureau move to consolidate the grain growers of the state are strong for the organization. Low Production Cost Shown by G. G. Pigs The Garden Grove Pig Club contests closed last Saturday after a four months feeding race and revealed some interesting feeding data. Leroy Smith, the youngest member of the Club carried away the first honors of the day when his finished pork product was decided by the Monday at Chicago for the purpose of considering ways and means of lowering transportation costs. All Farm Bureau throughout the U.S., shippers' associations and other farmers' organizations who come in close contact with the railroad problem were extended invitations to attend this conference. Railroad labor organizations and the railway heads are also asked by Pres. J. R. Howard to send delegates. The Calit. Farm Bureau Federation asked G. Harold Powell to represent California.

Pigs The Garden Grove Pig Club contests closed last Saturday after a four months feeding race and revealed some interesting feeding data. Leroy Smith, the youngest member of the Club carried away the first honors of the day when his finished pork product was decided by the judges to be 19 per cent in the lead according to outlined scoring schedule. He put on pork for approximately 7 cents a pound, which is a comparatively low figure. His gilt made an average gain of 2.3 pounds a day, and at the finish of the 120 days was 7 months old and welghed 358 lbs. John Allen Fitz followed with 2nd place. His records showed he used only 3.7 pounds of concentrates for each pound of gain. Emerson Stanley, Paul Cozier and James Parks crossed the goal line in the order named and each showed some records that would make most any long experienced swine producer take notice. The contest as well as the results was a success for the boys and undoubtedly they learned some valuable information regarding feed, and general care of livestock. The winner fed a balanced ration, the value and results of which are shown in his low cost of production. PRES. OF AMERICAN FARM BUREAU HERE J. R. Howard, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, will meet directors of the State Federation at regular session Thursday and Friday at Berkeley. Representatives from every county Farm Bureau in the state will be in attendance. H. B. Woodrough, Costa Mesa, Orange County director, will leave Wednesday evening for the north. He will extend an earnest invitation from the Orange County Farm Bureau to President Howard to visit this County and review Farm Bureau activities. It has been learned however that it will be impossible for Howard to accept the invitation at this time as he is called to Spokane, Wash., on Monday, March 21, on State Farm Bureau business. A special meeting has been called for Howard at Sacramento by the State Farm Bureau Federation, for Saturday, March 19. Farm Advisor Wahlberg will attend on his way to the annual conference of farm advisors at Berkeley next week. FARM BUREAU CALLS TRAFFIC CONFERENCE Farmers and fruit growers of California will be specially interested in the conference called by the American Farm Bureau Federation last Monday at Chicago for the purpose of considering ways and means of lowering transportation costs. All Farm Bureau throne the U.S.' shippers' associations and other farmers' organizations who come in close contact with the railroad problem were extended invitations to attend this conference. Railroad labor organizations and the railway heads are also asked by Pres. J. R. Howard to send delegates. The Calit. Farm Bureau Federation asked G. Harold Powell to represent California. Concerted effort will be made by the farmers to lower the present high rates of transportation which in many sections have prevented producers from shipping. A striking example near us is in Imperial Valley, where thousands of acres of lettuce, onions and other crops have been plowed under. Freight rates were so high that only red ink returns could be expected. Citrus men of Orange-co have also felt the increased burden. The citrus league is working with the Farm Bureau Federation on the same issue. Demonstration In Top-Working Upon Oranges Farm Advisor Wahlberg announces field demonstration meetings to be held in April to show methods of top-workng citrus trees to improve the quality of fruit produced or increase the yield. In most groves there are boarders. These trees can well be made over provided they are healthy and vigorous. The California Fruit Exchange has been instrumental in distributing bud wood and sections from record trees. This work will be discussed by Mr. C. S. Milliken of the Supply Co. The dates and locations of these demonstrations will be announced later. FARM LOAN ACT IS DECLARED VALID Orange-co farmers will be relieved to know that the Farm Loan Act which has been held up for about a year is pronounced valid. The American Farm Bureau Federation has been working diligently on this matter ever since it was hung up by outside interests. Thousands of farmers throughout the nation have been hampered in their operations by the temporary withdrawal of funds and injunction proceedings. But now the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a decision on Feb. 28, holding the act is constitutional. EBELL MUSIC SEC. METTS MON. The Music section of the Ebell society will meet on Monday at 2:30 in the Masonic Temple. All members and friends invited. —A. W. Thomas, Phone 450— FARM BUREAU CALLS TRAFFIC CONFERENCE Farmers and fruit growers of California will be specially interested in the conference called by the American Farm Bureau Federation last Ford THE UNIVERSAL CAR Out of the more than 3,000,000 Ford cars now in use, about sixty percent have been sold to farmers. Probably no other one thing has brought to the farm so much of comfort and profit as has the Ford car. It has enlarged the social life, doubled the facilities for marketing, brought the town next door to the farm, multiplied for the farmer the pleasures of living. A family car without an equal in low cost of operation and maintenance. We solicit your order for one now because the demand is large and continually increasing. GEORGE DUNTON Ford and Fordson Sales and Service Phone 268 Anaheim Society: Clubs: Lodges: Churches AMALGAMATED NO.1 STRIKES NICE SAND BROADWAY TEACHERS ENTERTAIN WITH PARTY The home of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Grimshaw, W. Broadway, proved to be a source of pleasure to the teachers of the grammar schools last evening, when the teachers of the Broadway bldg were hostesses to the teachers of the other three buildings, the trunches and their wives. An invitation in rhyme had been sent to the guests to attend a St. Patrick's party, with the suggestion that they tap lightly at the garden gate in order to gain admission. Upon their arrival they found the garden gate, to be the screen door, decorated to represent the garden gate, even a part of one slat missing, to let the pig out. Having laid aside their wraps, the guests were ushered to the living room where each received a little shamrock souvenir which they wrote. The rooms were decorated exclusively with green, with two exceptions. A real silk plug hat was converted into a jardinier, in which was a large bouquet of white snap dragons and fern, and formed a center piece for the large table in the living room. Yes, and "they kept the pig in the parlor" for that was Irish too, and this pig rested calmly under the shade of the snapdragons. In the dining room a brass basket full of dainty white lilies graced the table. Large shamrocks were suspended from the lights and doorways, which were also draped with smilax. Potted plants and ferns formed the balance of the decorations. In each room were found primitive candlesticks—Irish potatoes hollowed out and holding the old style white candles. The games caused great meritment. Mr Muldoon was there and quietly submitted to letting the guests try to pin a shamrock on the front of his stove pipe hat, while blind-folded. Miss Ruth Coons provided to be the most successful, and was awarded a small plug hat full of candy for her skill, and Mr. Stoop received a cake of green soap, because of his bad luck. The flag march caused much excitement. Miss Steadman proved J. Kelly, James McKinley, L. M. Thompson, J. C. Idior. Guests of the club were Mrs. J. Ritchie, Ruth Idior, Mrs. A. W. Little. LADIES' AID MEETS THURSDAY The Ladies' Aid society of Salem Evangelical church will meet at 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the church bungeow.

DINNER FOR CHURCH ELDERS Rev. and Mrs. Loren Howe entertained last evening with a very pleasant dinner in honor of the elders of the Christian church and their wives. After the dinner the evening Richfield-Placentia Drilling a nice looking oil sand that carried a substantial showing of oil making the No. 1 well show up rather good. Drilling at Page No. 1 is now at 750 in the conglomerate, and Potter No. 1 is now in easy shake drilling at 2450. The Bixby Ranch Syndicate well at 3400 feet continues to show the same water sand struck at 3200 feet. Drilling is going nicely, and now seems that it will have to go to the 4000 mark to get something good. The Fullerton Oil Co.'s Amheim Union No. 1 now approaching the 4100 foot mark is looking very promising. The brown sand shale is showing lots of gas. Another 190 feet is expected to put the Fullerton's well in the Kraenier gusher class. The biggest well of the week in the Richfield district is the General Petroleum's Thompson No. 4, that started off with a flow of close to 700 barrels. Drilled to 3275 feet, the new well gives promise of being one of the field's most consistent producers It began showing oil sand at 3100 feet and continued unbroken to 3272. The G.P.'s Marshburn No. 1 drilling at 3300, is one of the deep wells of the Yorba Linda section and is in sandy shale. Osman No. 1, at 2775 is in sticky shale. Drilling on Stearn No. 4 is now at 2700 in sandy shale. Davis No. 1 at 3100 shows brown shale, and Hugo No. 1 is about ready to start deepening. The Harrington-Dumus well has been drilled into the sand 62 feet, the texture of the sand, the gravity of the pruduction and judging from the manner in which the well is acting the writer feels safe in predicting a 400-barrel well This figure is based on comparison of production of neighboring wells and a study of the geological structure.The well is being held down with some difficulty, and may blow out and come in before everything can be made ready for bringing it in Whether The games caused great excitement. Miss Steadman proved her skill in stopping and beginning the march at very unexpected times. Miss Elizabeth Renshaw received a large Irish flag for securing the most flags, while Mr. William Chambers received a very diminutive silk flag for being unfortunate in not getting any. A "green guessing game" and "kissing the blarney stone," also tested the skill and wit of the guests. Much pleasure was had in listening to Irish songs and music produced by the Victrola. At a late hour refreshments consisting of ice cream, cake and green fruits were served. The napkins were gay with Irish decorations, and the cream was served in small flower pots. Chocolate dust lent the appearance of earth and a tiny bush of shamrock grew in the center of each pot. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Wun-Chambers, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Sloop; Mrs. Grimshaw, Mrs. Lulu B. Garrison, Mrs. Guy Daniels, the Misses Sada House, Helen Roberts, Louise Norton, Erna Steadman, Edith Hedstrom, Elenora Parker, Ruth Munger, Alice Blanshard, Amy Bigelow, Kuehl, Paula Palm, Emily Keil, Mrs. Seward, Mrs. Clark, Misses Ellizabeth Renshaw, Alice Grimshaw, Ruth Coons, Mattie Loo Robertson and Mr. Maxwell. CELEBRATE BIRTHDAY Robert, the young son of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Baxter, celebrated his fourth birthday yesterday, and in honor of the happy event was given a birthday party to which a number of his young friends were invited.

At four o'clock eight of the little guests were ushered into the dining room, the others being too small, where at a pretty table decorated with a wonderful birthday cake, with the four candles, Easter baskets, little chickens and "Peter Rabbit" place cards the youngsters were treated to ice cream and cake.

Bradford Community No. 1 set a string of pipe at 4342 and is now standing. Richfield No. 2 is now drilling in the hard shale at 1924 feet. The Petroleum Milway's Isaacs No. 1, now drilling at 2945, is in the oil sand and looks like a nice well. The drilling is to go ahead until all the sand is pierced. Yarnell No. 9 is now drilling at 3255 and No. 14 is making hole at 2400. Drilling on Richfield, No.- is going good at 2800. Steiner No. 1 is working on shutting off water at 3400. On the Krugg property No. 1 is drilling at close to 1000 feet and No. 2 is building rig. Work is progressing rapidly on the Richfield-Consolidated's No. 2, now one of the most promising looking producers in the field. Cleaning out with cable tools will put the well in production condition and the carrying of a string of six-inch casing to the bottom will give the well the necessary protection from heavy gas pressure and heaving sands. It will be only a matter of a short time now when the Richfield Consolidated will have one of the big wells of the Richfield district. Drilling at 2900 feet the Richfield Union Petroleum Co.' reports a showing of the oil in the blue shale that looked rather promising. Drilling is going steadily ahead. The Selby-Root-Hogue Oil Co.'s Dominguez No. 1, now drilling at 3380, came into a hard sand that looked encouraging after drilling 100 feet or more in a hard white sand. At Wardman No. 1 the log shows 2950 feet in the brown shale. At Kramerer 2-10 another gusher was predicted a week ago on account of the good showings as the well approached the 4000 mark where it was finished up and put on production. Kraemer 2-12 is 3000 feet in the hard sand. 2-13 is drilling at 1065 and 2-14 at 350 feet. On the original Kraemer lease No. 5 is now drilling at 4125 in gray sand with little indication of oil. Chapman No. 7 at 4260. Interest is centering on what T. & G. No. 2 will do when opened up. It is standing cemented at 3060 feet. T. & G. No. 1 is doing close to 400 barrels and is one of the most consisted performers in the field. Lumber is on the ground for No. 2. At McFadden No. 2 a water test is to be made at 3150 feet. Dickson No. 1 shows grey sand at 3555 and does not look very promising. Shepard No. 1 still stands at 4670 feet. It is believed that this well stands little show of getting into the production. C. & B. No. 1 just as it was about to be brot in at 4032 feet, a fishing job blocked the work. Placentia-Orchard I-A is about ready to start drilling. Stern No. 1 on reaching the oil sand at 3420 met with a fishing pob that will delay the progress of the well a few weeks. "Mothers of Men" will be the feature at the Grand tonight.
