There, Osterman, together with over 200 other grain growers were shown the numerous plots of grain varities carried on by the College of Agriculture. The barley varieties that seemed to adapt themselves to California conditions are the 4000, Marlout and Tennessee winter. The best wheat varieties are Bunyip, Hard Federation and Early Defiance. One caution submitted to the grain growers by expert milling men was to grow only one variety of wheat in a given district, the reason being that a mixture of wheat varieties makes a poor flour for baking purposes. The raising qualities are uneven. The bulk handling of grain was a very live subject. It was shown from actual figures that while it costs $2.96 per hundredweight to load grain on shipboard outside of transportation charges, it cost only 95 cents by the bulk system through elevators. Many elevators are being constructed in the San Joaquin and Sacramento Valleys subsidiary to the Farm Bureau terminal elevator at Oakland. Osterman visited the Farm Bureau elevators at Montpellier, Stanislaus county. He is thoroughly won over to the bulk handling system. Thru his efforts the elevator department of the State Farm Bureau Federation will send a representative down to Orange county this fall to assist the local grain growers of El Toro and Capistrano Farm Centers in the planning of an elevator. The new Warehouse Act passed by the recent legislature is a very good piece of legislation for the farmer, according to Osterman. It will enable the grain men to borrow on their warehouse receipts. It is reported that the Farm Bureau will handle a large portion of the California grain crop this year through its selling department, and working toward a legitimate price for the grower and consumer.

FINDS BIG SUGAR SUPPLY Beet sugar production in 1920 exceeded the former record crop of 1915 by 27 per cent and reached the highest figure of 2,219,200,000 pounds, according to a preliminary estimate by the bureau of crop estimates, United States Department of Agriculture. The increased yield was the result of a combination of large acreage and favorable weather conditions. Production of cane sugar is estimated to have been 385,974,000 lbs., so that the total estimated sugar crop for the United States was 2,605,174,000 pounds. This was 15 per cent above the record sugar production for the United States in 1916, and 53 per cent above that of 1919. Beet sugar has been gaining on cane sugar in production for many years, taking the lead as early as 1906. Sugar produced in the United States is said to be approximately one-fourth of the quantity consumed, and both the total and per capita consumption have steadily increased. The per capita was 71 pounds a year during 1901-1905, and 78 lbs. during 1906-1910. In 1913 and 1914, the two pre-war years, the per capita consumption rose to 86 and 90.5 pounds, respectively. In the first year of the war, 1915, it dropped to 87.5 pounds, and in 1916, to 79.6 pounds. A rise to 83.5 pounds was noted in 1917, America's first year in the war. Despite the popular impression of a sugar scarcity in 1918, the rate that year was 78.7 pounds, followed in 1919 by 84.2 pounds. Then came a period of extraordinary sugar consumption with 92 pounds in 1920, and the total arose to the enormous quantity of 9,759,000,000 pounds, or one billion pounds more than the preceding year. Hawaiian Crop Below Average Last year's Hawaiian sugar crop was the smallest of the five years ending Sept. 30; 1920, according to revised figures issued by the Bureau. The production of 555,727 short tons of sugar in 1920 was $8 million.

If It's from Wittman's, It's Good! per cent below the average of the preceding four years. There was a drop of 5 per cent in the harvest cane area and of 5 per cent in the cane yield per acre, due to a somewhat unfavorable year for cane production. Thus the total cane produced for sugar was about 9 per cent below the average of the four years 1916-1919. However, the cane harvested in 1920 yielded two pounds of sugar per short ton more than the average. FARMERS ENTITLED TO 20 TO 35 PERCENT That farmers should be entitled to 20 to 35 per cent profit was one of the important statements made by Mr. R. V. Wright, farm management specialists, during a recent farm center meeting. "The average grocery-man," says Mr. Wright, "figures 8 to 20 per cent profit with a rapid turnover—from 30 to 50 days' time. The farmer's business, which turns over but once a year, should therefore figure on a 20 to 35 per cent profit to be on an equal basis." Farmers throut the country are beginning to realize and to demand the cost of production for their product plus a reasonable profit. The time is rapidly passing when farmers are willing to figure that their own labor should not be considered in the cost of production. Various representations are being made and will be made to show this fact but farmers must realize that before they will be entitled to obtain cost of production, they must know what these costs really are. That the average costs of production of primary California farm products is not known is beginning to be realized, but even at this time the interest in cost accounting among growers is not sufficiently common so that very accurate figures are obtainable. "At any time," says Mr. Wright, "that a sufficient number of growers in California are interested in cost accounting work to warrant the farm management department, thru the Orange County Farm Bureau, will arrange for them forms whereby this information may be obtained." The various factors which make up production cost are not well understood but are made up of the following items: Labor, operating expenses, taxes, insurance, depreciation and interest on investment. The bearing of these factors on the tariff situation at the present time is very important and the fact that these figures are no accurately known is the biggest weakness in the present presentations that farmers are making to secure protection. The trend of the times, it is very evident to note, demands that farmers very carefully study into their costs of production and use every possible means to reduce the same. This involves various factors which accuse Mexican of kidnaping Girl, 14. Constable Way of Whittier telephoned Sheriff C. E. Jackson to be on the lookout for M. Cordosa, 30-year-old Mexican, who is alleged to have kidnapped Manwella Martinez 14. According to Way, the couple was traced as far as Buena Park. The Whittier constable said he understood that Cordosa would apply for a marriage license at Santa Ana. He asked that the couple be arrested and held if they appeared. EDUCATORS FAVOR BOOK "Stories of Luther Burbank and His Plant School," is meeting with favor as a supplemental textbook in California schools. Information to that effect has been received by Mrs. Y. Slusses of Tustin, one of the authors of the books. The advisability of adopting the book as a supplementary textbook in nature study for the schools of Orange county has been discussed by the Orange county board of education. That the book is to be placed in the hands of school children of a number-of the counties of the state, was stated here today. The book was written nine or ten years ago when Mrs. Slusser, now vice president of the Tustin school was a teacher at Santa Rosa. Working with Mrs. Slusses as co-authors were Mary Belle Williams, a teacher at Santa Rosa, and Mrs. Emmo Beeson, also of Santa Rosa, a sister of the plant wizard. Preparations to publish the book a few years ago were delayed on account of the war. The book was published last year by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, and has taken a place as book for children.

Four culling demonstrations have been scheduled under the auspices of the Farm Bureau for the purpose of showing scientific methods of ridling the poultry yard unprofitable birds. These meetings will be open to the public. They will continue the work carried on last year on the same subject. Records will be kept on the flocks to be culled in these demonstrations, ten days previous to and ten days following the culling. During the ten days previous, the number of eggs laid by the entire flock will be noted daily. Then after the culls have been removed separate records will be taken of daily production of the good birds and cull birds. These records will speak for aefficacy of culling. Last year at one of the demonstration farms 120 culls were removed from a pen of 400 birds. The 280 birds remaining laid eight eggs less per day than the original flock of 400 birds. Mr. R. B. Easson, poultry specialist from College of Agriculture, will conduct the demonstration. A discussion of feeds, diseases and also housing will be included in the program. The following schedule has been arranged: Monday, June 27, 9:30 a.m. — H. M. Halladay, Costa Mesa. Monday, June 27, 2 p.m. — W. S. Hatch, San Juan St., Tustin. Tuesday, June 28, 9:30 a.m. — L. H. Hoskins, Anaheim, 1 mile So. on Santa Ana boulevard. Tuesday, June 28, 2 p.m. — Mrs. J. V. Kelsey, Garden Grove, Brookhurst Ave. Balwin Refrigerator—Stroup-Barnes Furniture Co. The bearing of these factors on the tariff situation at the present time is very important and the fact that hese figures are no accurately known is the biggest weakness in the present presentations that farmers are making to secure protection. The trend of the times, it is very evident to note, demands that farmers very carefully study into their costs of production and use every possible means to reduce the same. This involves various factors which may be enumerated briefly as inefficiency in operation, maximum production per acre, and improvement of quality. To define these factors would cover a great space but briefly it may be stated that they involve many problems, such as the question of machinery repair rather than new purchase, tractor vs. horse efficiency at the present time, more efficient pest control, fertilization, etc. Briefly to sum up the matter it might be stated that this coming year will probably by a trying one to farmers of all classes. The best judgment indicates that every effort should be made to conserve in production costs without sacrifice to quality.
