BIG FARM BUREAU MEETING FRIDAY Dr. H. W. Walker, president of the Cal. Farm Bureau Federation, will be the principal speaker at the first big farm bureau mass meeting of the new year to be held at the auditorium of the high school in Anaheim, 7:30 p.m., on Friday, January 6th, 1922. President Walker for the past two years has represented the western states on the executive committee of the American bureau federation as well as being president of the Calif. Farm Bureau federation. No man in the west is in a better position to speak for the farmer and of the work that is being done by the farm bureau organization for the farmers than president Walker. This is the first of several big meetings that the farm bureau expects to hold in the county during 1922. Farmers are expected from all over the county and provision is being made for a big attendance. The meeting will be opened by a male quartette, singing farm bureau songs. Farm Bureau Names Taxation Committee The taxation committee of the Orange-co farm bureau consisting of the following farm bureau farmers, H. B. Woodrough, chairman, Jas. A. Smiley, E. E. Campbell have begun their work of determining whether or not the present methods of assessing property in Orange-co are fair to agriculture, and to assist county assessor, Jas. Sleeper in every way possible when the assessed valuation is increased in Orange-co. This is one of the most important committees appointed by the farm bureau in recent months and one that everyone in the county will watch with considerable interest. This committee will have its first meeting of the afternoon of Friday, Jan. 6th, 1922. MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN R AT ANAHEIM AND WEST ANAHEIM BUENOS AIRES HAS FEWER BIRTHS NOW BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 3. — During the seven years since the outbreak of the war, notwithstanding almost complete cessation of emigration, the population of Buenos Aires has increased by over 300,000. In the last decade the growth was over 630,000—a truly astonishing figure as compared with the census of other capitals. There has been, however, a somewhat disquieting decrease in the birth rate of the city. With a population of 1,692,600, the births were only about 34,000 per annum, whereas in 1914, when the population was much less these numbered nearly 51,000. In some cases this decrease is attributed to the high cost of living, the great jump in price taken by necessities, it is alleged, having led to a "strike of mothers." THE STOOL Andrew Carnegie was once asked which he considered to be the most important in industry—labor, capital or brains. Carnegie's answer was: "Which is the most important leg of a three-legged stool?" ing. This will be the first opportunity of holding such a local conference that has been afforded the directors for almost a year, and it may be several months before another opportunity will present itself. It is expected that every farm bureau director will be present at this meeting. FARM BUREAU TRACTOR COMMITTEE MAKES REPORT The farm bureau tractor committee consisted of W. Dean Johnston, chairman, C. E. Utt, and R. D. Flaherty have reported much activity on the repair-price situation, and the fuel price question. They have closed a contract with the Pease, Kolberg Co. of Orange, whereby this company are equipping a modern garage which is now open for business and will be fully equipped on Jan. 9th, 1922. Under the terms of this contract, Pease, Kolberg Co. agree to do general repair work for $1.00 per hour and agree to keep only first class mechanics.

This campaign will be put on in the same manner in which the campaign was handled over the county in the first part of December, 1921. There are approximately 900 farmers living in these two centers, and they expect to get between four and five hundred farm bureau members in this territory. R. D. Flaherty secretary-manager of the Orange-co farm bureau will devote practically all of his time this week and next in this membership campaign in these two centers. A clean-up membership campaign will be put on in all the other centers during the month of January, and Mr. Flaherty expects to devote at least two days active work in each center on active clean-up work in his campaign. Following this a campaign will be put on about the middle of February in the unorganized section of Westminster, Greenville, Talbert and Huntington Beach. By the first of March when the campaign will be closed they expect to have approximately 2500 farm bureau members in the county. FARM BUREAU EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO MEET WITH STATE PRESIDENT The executive committee of the farm bureau and most of the other farm bureau directors will meet with the state presdenit, W.H. Walker on Friday afternoon, Jan. 6th, 1922. Methods of financing and handling the state president, W.H. Walker on and other farm bureau problems in which Orange-co is especially interested will be acted on at this meeting. The farm bureau tractor committee consisting of W. Dean Johnston, chairman, C.E. Utt, and R.D. Flaherty have reported much activity on the repair-price situation, and the fuel price question. They have closed a contract with the Pease, Kolberg Co. of Orange, whereby company are equipping a modern garage which is now open for business and will be fully equipped on Jan. 9th, 1922. Under the terms of this contract, Pease, Kolberg Co. agree to do general repair work for $1.00 per hour and agree to keep only first class mechanics. They report that two other companies in the county are doing work for $1.00 per hour; one company at Westminster, and another at the cross-roads this side of Olinda, where one road goes to Placentia, and one to Brea, and the other on to Olinda. The Ford shop in Santa Ana is going on the 1917 Ford schedule for repair work, which is based on $1.00 per hour for mechanic's labor. Knox & Stout, Santa Ana, are advertising reduced prices affective at once, which figures approximately $1.12½ per hour. One of the large oil companies, announce that they expect to be able to make a price reduction to members of the farm bureau effective shortly after the first of the year. The reduced price for repairing on the basis of $1.00 per hour will mean a saving to the automobile and tractor owners of Orange-co of approximately $300,000 per year. The committee further states that they estimate that this price basis will lead to the consolidation of many of the garages over the county, and to their locating these larger companies outside of the high rent districts outside of the town.

ANAHEIM HAS FINE FLOAT IN PARADE Marigold, narcissus and greenery were the decorations of the auto float entered by the city at the thirty third annual Tournament of Roses in Pasadena. The car, a seven-passenger Cadillac loaned by J. E. Walter, was the second division, following that of the city of Chino. The occupants were President Harry D. Riley of the Chamber of Commerce, J. P. Ahlborn, G. W. Clausen and Herman Dickel. "Anaheim, Cal., Valencia Orange Show" was the legend written in flowers upon the float, which was liberally applauded along the route. First prize and special prize for the best entry outside the State in Class A, consisting of floats of civic bodies other than Pasadena, was given to the Portland, Ore., Rose Festival Association; second to Glendale; third to the San Bernardino Chamber of Commerce. PROSECUTION SAYS 1 JUROR DOUBTFUL LOS ANGELES, Jan. 3—A note, written by Mrs. Obenchain to Arthur C. Burch in the county jail, was produced by Dr. Ross Moore on the witness stand in the Burch trial today. It read: "Dear Arthur, much benefit can be derived from your confiding freely and completely to Dr. Moore your actions from Aug. 5, noon, until midnight; also explain fully all questions." (Signed) MADALYNNE." Dr. Moore said Burch refused to give him the information requested by Mrs. Obenchain. NEGRO NABBED FOR COMPTON ASSAULT Clarence Lawrence, 23, burly negro cook, was being detained today by Santa Ana police on suspicion in connection with an attack upon a woman. CALIFORNIA SHOWING Novelty Program The splendid program now showing at the California theater here might well be termed "a program of novelties and surprises." It is unquestionably one of the finest theatrical bills of its kind ever presented in this city. It is not often that Messrs. Swope and Ingram are fortunate enough to give their patrons such dandy entertainment, but they have expressed a determination to present only the best in this beautiful theater. One of the outstanding features will be Constance Binney in "Room and Board." It is a really fine photodrama and should be the basis for much favorable comment in Anaheim. Miss Binney has a host of "fans" in this city, and her brilliant acting as well as decided personality will undoubtedly "put the picture across big." Another feature of unusual merit is the fine stage presentation arranged by the theater management. Those who are acquainted with Cadman's fine compositions will be pleased to see "The Land of the Sky Blue Water" in stage form with that noted tenor, Roy Smoot, singing this masterpiece of music. Special stage settings have been provided for this occasion, and with the unusual lighting effects and other added features, this program should go over the top like a whirlwind.

WHY WORRY ABOUT TRACTOR UPKEEP Have you enrolled for University of California Tractor School at Santa Ana, Jan. 30th, to Feb. 4th? Only 60 enrollments can be handled and with 50 per cent of this number signed up, there will be little opportunity for eleventh hour enrollments. This is the first real and practical tractor repair and tractor management work that has ever been offered by the University. A nominal fee of $2 is charged for incidental supplies, but everyone attending school is asked to bring his own tractor in order to assure the success of the work. The crew in charge of the work will have a full set of equipment for general lecture and demonstration work, but repair work will be done on the tractors furnished by local people. This is a rare opportunity to get first hand information from experienced tractor and machine men. This will be particularly valuable because no one make of tractor will be featured. This local school is featured by the Orange County Extension Service and the Orange County Farm Bureau. Make all arrangements for attending school at Farm Bureau office, 508 N.

TANKS TO CARRY BANK SECURITIES NEW YORK, Jan. 3. — Armoured cars, with armed guards inside and out, carrying millions of dollars' worth of treasury equipment, will soon be available. TAX REMOVED FROM EXPRESS SHIPMENTS The public will save approximately $1,500,000 a month as a result of the elimination of the war tax on express shipments, according to George C. Taylor, president of the American Railway Express Co. An announcement to this effect was made today by J. B. Collings, the local express agent. The "revenue act of 1921" eliminates the war tax of one cent on every 20 cents and fractions thereof in transportation charges on all express shipments. This tax during the year of 1920 amounted to $17,502,918. The average transportation charge for each express shipment was approximately $1.50 and the average war tax for each shipments was eight cents. The elimination of the tax therefore, Mr. Taylor states, will virtually amount to a decrease in rates of a little over five per cent. "The American Railway Express Co. handles approximately one million shipments a day or nearly four hundred million shipments a year." Mr. Taylor goes on to say. The Treasury department has requested express carriers to advise all claimants who have claims pending for overcharges, or who file such claims after Dec. 31st, 1921, that claims for refund of tax should be filed separately on treasury department form No. 46, with the commissioner of internal revenue within four years from the time tax was paid claiming being barred by statute of limitations if received after such time."
