THURSDAY, January 26, 1922 THE ORANGE TELLS EARLY DAY TRIALS OF GROWER Intimate details of the trials and tribulations of pioneers in the citrus industry in this county were given in a graphic manner in a paper read to the Orange-co Historical society by A. D. Bishop, who stands in the forefront rank of the men who fought for and saved the industry in the dark days of the eighties and nineties. Bishop described the devastation that followed in the spread of the red scale which was brought to So. Calif. on Australian navel trees imported to Orange. The black scale, too, was a terrible pest. The white cottony scale never did a great deal of damage here, said Bishop, but it was a widespread pest in the San Gabriel valley. A parasitic enemy of the white cottony scale was introduced and put that pest under control many years ago. Bishop was the man who by experiments developed the best of the early-day sprays. In fact, Bishop asserted his belief that none of the modern washes has proven any more effective than did the old washes. Included in experiments of those early days was a spray composed of whale oil and caustic soda. Then rosin was added, and eucalyptus was boiled in. Bishop developed a spray that would stick to the tree immediately upon cooling. Dr. W. B. Wall, Samuel Preble and Bishop made a trip to the A. B. Chapman ranch in the San Gabriel valley and brought back with them all available information concerning experiments that had been made in fumigation. These ideas were developed and tried out over a period of years. Tents were made. Trees were badly burned because fumigation was tried in the daytime and all light could not be excluded. Finally, on the suggestion of Mrs. Bishop night fumigation was tried and proved successful. At first great derricks on wagons were used to carry the tents. These derricks gave way to the simpler methods of handling tents by poles. It took a long time and many experiments before the production of gas was perfected. At first pumps were used to send the gas under the City Briefs Water loss is in the Imperial valley today on business. John Kellenberger left today over the Santa Fe for Chicago. Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Hawkins, of 317 South Office-st, who have been residents of Anaheim for many years, are moving to Los Angeles. Dr. Hitchcock underwent an operation at the Anaheim sanitarium yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Dage of Anaheim are rejoicing over the arrival of a baby boy, who made his appearance at the Anaheim Sanitarium today. New patients at the Sanitarium include: Mrs. J. J.

(Continued from page one) that the exhibit was placed beside others, like that of Los Angeles-co, which cost much more. Secretary J. C. Metzgar read a letter from General Manager R. W. Mack of the National Orange show, urging a good exhibit as usual. Many exhibitors had signified their intention of having more elaborate exhibits than ever. C. L. Crumrine, J. F. Ahlborn, Harry D. Riley and others spoke on the subject of the exhibit. Both of the Anaheimers were inclined to favor an exhibit as usual by way of reciprocity in connection with the Valencia Orange Show and as a matter of moral backing. Riley, for the way and means committee reported that 15 out of the twenty-two chambers had reported, and said he thought the others would do their share by the next meeting. Ahlborn, for the water conservation committee, in his report said it was apparent a large part of the acreage of the county would be lost unless the waste waters of the Santa Ana river were conserved. He made no recommendations. Edward G. Sheibley, Los Angeles engineer for the division of engineering and irrigation of the state department of public works, repeated what he told the Klwanis club here, regarding the state investigation of water powers and resources. Retirement has been shown by many in furnishing the information sought by him and his co-workers, he said, because of the suspicion that they may be furnishing information to unfriendly interests. Sheibley complimented the late H. Clay Kellogg, under whom, he said, he had worked for several years. The data collected in Orange county will be correlated with other data relating to the Santa Ana rivershed and not considered in itself. Each watershed in the state is treated as a unit in the inquiry. Questions from E. E. Jahraus elicited the information that no beginning yet has been made on roads in the county out of the state's $40,000,000 appropriation. Lew H. Wallace, on his own motion, was appointed chairman of a committee to make up a deficit caused by the absence of 11 members.

The INDIANS GOOD IN PRINTING TRADE LAWRENCE, Kan., Jan. 26—The Indian of today can handle the printers’ “stick” with the same dexterity as his forefathers handled the tomahawk. A visit to the Haskell Institute, near here, would convince the most skeptical that the Apache, Comanche, Soux or Creek red man is well-night the equal of his white brother as a printer. Twenty-six Indians are enrolled in the four-year printing course at the university. They are learning their trade in a modern shop, complete with mechanical equipment. All of the institution’s printing is done here and also the school weekly publication, the Indian Leader. Once a month the Leader appears in magazine form, with colored cover, and fully demonstrates the Indian’s achievements in the printing trade.

Moulton ranch near El Toro, was visioned today by numbers of Orange co citizens as a result of the very good indications in the Nusanta well. Bubbles of oil are being brought up by the bailer from a depth of 2784 feet, just as the hole is entering a stratum of blue shale. It may be weeks before the well is brought in, officials of the Nusanta point out, and the hole cannot yet be classed as an oil well, but all indications and the opinions of experienced oil men point to the inauguration of a large new field, possibly one of the largest in California. Bowling along the state highway past the Moulton ranch, one can see but the tip of the Nusanta derrick some two miles toward the coast and behind the foothills, but there drilling has been in progress intermittently since last April and there are centered the hopes of about 100 stockholders.
