BRIGHTER DAY FOR HONEY PRODUCERS Honey producers of Calif. are preparing to reorganize their cooperative exchange system and to put up a fight against certain middlemen and jobbers who are attempting to wreck the cooperative movement in California in so far as the production and sale of honey are BRIGHTER DAY FOR HONEY PRODUCERS Honey producers of Calif. are preparing to reorganize their cooperative exchange system and to put up a fight against certain middlemen and jobbers who are attempting to wreck the cooperative movement in California in so far as the production and sale of honey are concerned. To bring this reorganization about, ten meetings will be held within the next few weeks at Modesto, Bishop, Selma, El Centro, Santa Ana, Veneva, Sacramento, Riverside, San Diego and Los Angeles. At these meetings consolidation of the re-organized locals, which constitute the Exchange, is to be completed. The importance of this reorganization that its members produce 80 per cent of the California crop and 55 per cent of all honey made in the United States. Within the last 20 months the Exchange has shipped 210 cars of California honey—36,000 pounds to a car—or a total of 7,560,000 pounds. The Exchange has created sales organizations in every important market in the United States. It has only approximately 20 cars of honey left to move before the new crop begins to come in, and in the meantime it has created supply depots throughout the U.S. to supply the market as this honey can be absorbed. The Exchange has a total membership of 1075 and markets a crop amounting annually to more than $1,000,000. To this end, it has spent more than $100,000 in setting up its sales force and in making the necessary arrangements to supply its markets. The 1920 crop was particularly heavy, and came just at the time when there was an over supply of sugar in the world. The large crop of 1920 was followed by a small—40-car—crop in 1921, with the result that through exchange methods the 1920 crop was held over and is now being disposed of. The necessity for reorganization lies in the fact that early rains in California give assurance of a particularly heavy crop next summer, with the result that unless the Exchange is put on a firm financial basis, independent selling will ruin the eastern market and, with it, the honey producers of California themselves. Facing this fact, the Exchange appealed to the First National bank of Los Angeles for financial assistance, and that bank has agreed to do for the honey producers what it already is in the habit of doing for other co-operative producers and for the cotton growers of Imperial MAN DIES WHO TOLD OF CUSTER'S DANGER LEAVENIORTH, Kan., Jan. 28—Coyote Bely, 73, former government scout who is said to have warned Maj. Reno of Custer's impending danger at the battle of Little Big Horn died in the federal prison here tonight. Coyote Bely left an estate in South Dakota estimated at $40,000 and comprised 1220 acres of land. Following the Custer massacre he joined Gen. Miles' command, which drove Sitting Bull into Canada and later when Sitting Bull was killed. Coyote Bely was a life termer, convicted for killing Yellow Wolf, a famous Sioux Indian policemtn, sent to arrest him. The body will be sent to Allen, S. D. and when the Exchange is placed upon a firm foundation through re-enrollment of its members.

Jack Rozier's canines are known from coast to coast for they have played some of the largest vaudeville circuits in this country. The dogs, which are pure white, display intelligence that is uncanny and will surely prove a delight to all who see them. Goode and Walde, colored but not born that way, are two southern entertainers of rare ability. Their songs and stories are typical of the race which they so cleverly irritate. Pure Inn is the main ingredient of the offering of Harry and Irene Foster, who have woven many clever bits of comedy into their sketch, "The Blinger Dog." California give assurance of a particularly heavy crop next summer, with the result that unless the Exchange is put on a firm financial basis, independent selling will ruin the eastern market and, with it, the honey producers of California themselves. Facing this fact, the Exchange appealed to the First National bank of Los Angeles for financial assistance, and that bank has agreed to do for the honey producers what it already is in the habit of doing for other co-operative producers and for the cotton growers of Imperial Valley, Arizona and New Mexico—this by advancing necessary credit to carry the crop and promote the selling work of the Exchange, if and when the Exchange is placed upon a firm foundation through enrollment of its members. At the same time Governor Stephens has set aside the week of February 6-11 as "Honey Week" in California during which time honey will be sold by the retailer at wholesale prices—this in order to build up a market for this important California product.

ANIMALS PLENTIFUL IN NORTHWEST VANCOUVER, Jan. 25. — News from various sections of the Northwest tend to prove the return of one of those periodic years of abundant wild animal life. The trapping fraternity has shown more inclination to establish the trap lines this autumn than for years, some of the Northwest outfitting stores reporting enormous sales of trapping and hunting supplies. Such energy by the trappers of the Northwest is not shown unless they are reasonably sure of big returns, for it requires courage to spend a lonely winter in the frozen wilderness, where trapping must be done. Rabbits are more plentiful this winter in the Western states, Canada and Alaska than eevr before. It has been proved very conclusively that hares and rabbits fluctuate every eight and a half years, so the high tide of their existence is close at hand. The records of the Hudson Bay Co. at Vancouver show the last abundant year of rabbit life was in 1914, indicating this species of animal life should reach its height of periodic fluctuation next spring. Many say it is now at its peak of increase. Witman, eyesight specialist.

KEEP CLOSER TAB ON COUNTY AUTOS Orange-co proposes to keep a check on its official automobiles. Supervisor Howard Wassum, committeeman, who has the county garage under his supervision, made this clear when he announced that the new system of closer supervision by the board of supervisors, as recommended by the county grand jury, would probably become effective February 1. When the plan is put into effect, county employees who make use of automobiles from the county garage must register on leaving and returning, Wassum stated. Another change that will be made will consist in the maintenance of all-night service. By this means every county employee who removes a car after hours will be enabled to register.
