LIVESTOCK & CITRUS FINE COMBINATION By D. Eyman Huff, Vice-Pres. David Hewes Corp. (Part of paper presented at the So. Calif. Purebred Livestock Ass'n, at La Cabra, May 27th.) The subject that has been assigned to "Livestock and Citrus, a Necessary Combination" is one that is so broad and complex that it would be a most difficult problem to cover it thoroughly, properly and intelligently without much time, studying and effort. However, in the few minutes that has been allotted to me I shall endeavor to touch upon a few of the vital points as to why such a combination is most necessary if the citrus business is to be kept up to a proper standard and necessary fertilizers put on the groves. One of the first and necessary things to determine should be the analysis of soils to determine what elements are present and in what quantity and those that are deficient altogether and what should be best applied and how and when. We have learned through experiments carried on at our experiment station that barnyard fertilizer when properly applied gives as good or better results than anything else we can but on our groves. But here we are brought face to face with the proposition of a declining supply of barnyard fertilizers with a tremendously increased demand and requirement and how are we going to meet the issue? Shell we continue as we have been doing, bidding against the other fellow and raising the price on the decreasing supply occasioned by the increased use of tractors and trucks or shall we set about and help ourselves by establishing dairies on our farms of such sizes as may in part at least meet our requirements for fertilizers and have a revenue from the milk and butter products of the dairy? Here the question may be asked, but if we are all to establish dairies in more or less proportions will there be any profit from the milk and butter produced. It appears to me that this should not seriously concern us for the reason that our population is increasing by leaps and bounds and the demand for those products is increasing likewise. Prominent Citizen Valencia Show The Second California Valencia Orange show has come to a blaze of glory. It was all the hardworking promoters who be and more. Thousands saw it and marveled. Incidentally them had their attention forcibly called for the first time and the wonderful district surrounding it. Probably no one in the size in the world would attempt to stage such a pretend taking and furthermore would carry it out so successfully. The Plain Dealer has yet to hear one criticism of the show such an event each year. Here is what a few of the bus Anaheim think about the exposition, for such it was: J. A. CLAYES, principal at the High School—"I was much impressed by the show this year—splendid exhibits and arrangements. The Valencia Orange show was the best advertising medium a town could undertake. It was put on in a business like manner. I am very much in favor of making this a yearly event." WM. KNOTT — "Great show, couldn't be beat. I am in favor of having a show next year. There were thousands of people in Anaheim during the show who probably had never been in this locality before and who carried away a favorable impression of the city." JOE STROUP—"A big proposition carried out in a very commendable manner. Much credit should be given the management of the show who put it over in a forceful way. I am greatly in favor of a show next year. O. H. RENNER of the S. Q. R. Store—"The Second Valencia Orange Show went over in a wonderful manner and has put the name of Anaheim on the tongues of thousands of people who could not have been reached in any other way. There were no hitches in the program. Everything went on like clock work. There was a welcoming spirit in the air and every one was happy." W. E. JACKSON—"Wonderful, exquisite! The merchants of this progressive city have derived many benefits from this show and it is the best advertising medium a city product is increasing likewise." SHOULD PRACH POULTRY Trap-nesting is the means of determining but conformation of blossoms, and the make-up dividual hens must always surveillance by the owner. The University of Ctension Service through local agencies throughout have arranged for a series demonstrations to acquire poultrymen and many ones as well, with the observed in determining from the non-layers. The local poultry业isting the Assistant on Extension projects have arranged for four constructions in Orange June 19 and 20. The tions or meetings w poultry ranches and in the county. This will e poultrymen and others learning of the real culling, to get to at leaing. In order to get a value of such instruction the birds will be kept rator ten days before the ed and a record of boothers 10 days after thition. Watch for future an increased use of tractors and trucks or shall we set about and help ourselves by establishing dairies on our farms of such sizes as may in part at least meet our requirements for fertilizers and have a revenue from the milk and butter products of the dairy? Here the question may be asked, but if we are all to establish dairies in more or less proportions will there be any profit from the milk and butter produced. It appears to me that this should not seriously concern us for the reason that our population is increasing by leaps and bounds and the demand for those products is increasing likewise. Again we could well afford to establish such dairies even though there would not be a large margin of profit from those products simply getting our profit from the by-product of the dairy and thereby causing other supplies of barnyard fertilizer to be in less demand and perhaps at a lower price. Whatever the sum total of that result may be, the fact remains that if we do not help ourselves, barnyard fertilizers will reach such a price that we simply cannot afford to buy them and then we cannot afford to be in the citrus business because without an ample supply of barnyard fertilizers and at a reasonable price our business would not be profitable and our groves would soon deteriorate. Assuming that we do establish dairies we should establish such pure breeds of stock as in each individuals judgment is most desirable because the cost of feeding purebreds is no greater than the common herd cattle and the outside world is looking for dairy cattle that have been bred to produce both quality and quantity in milk and butter fat and here in Orange-co there is no better place to establish such purebred dairies and cause our county to be known thrust upon the nation as some of the councils are known in Wisconsin and elsewhere for their splendid dairy cattle. While I am on this subject I think every citrus grower should also establish a flock of chickens for it has been said that one chicken will be sufficient for the fertilizing of one tree. However true that may be we should keep as many as possible on our farms for our own meat and eggs as well as fertilizer. I desire to call your attention to an article appearing on page 186 of the April 1922 issue of the California vitrograph presented by Dr. W. P. Kelley of the Citrus Experiment Station. Also to an article in the same paper on page 18 of the April 1916 issue headed "Diversifying in the Citrus Grove" and referring to the Fontana Citrus properties at Fontana near Rialto, where they are raising poultry in large numbers. I desire also to call your attendance to bulletin No. 06 of June 1917 prepared at the Vermont Agriculture Experiment Station, page 54 giving manure analysis, page 57 amount produced per animal, page 57 values, (which are much less than present day value prices) page 59 and 60 plant food losses by eaching and otherwise and page 62 are of barnyard fertilizers to stopange Show went over in a wonderful manner and has put the name of Anaheim on the tongues of thousands of people who could not have been reached in any other way. There were no hitches in the program. Everything went on like clock work. There was a welcoming spirit in the air and every one was happy." W. E. JACKSON—"Wonderful, exquisite! The merchants of this progressive city have derived many benefits from this show and it is the best advertising medium a city could put on. By all means let's make this an annual affair." KURT EPSTEIN, of Falkenstein's Store—"Best thing that a town could put on from a booster standpoint. A lasting impression is stamped on the minds of all who attended this wonderful exhibition. I, for one, can not emphasize too strongly the value of this show to the town and absolutely another show should be staged next year. I will be one of the greatest boosters." J. FREDERICK AHLBORN—"The Second California Valencia Orange Show has passed into history, leaving behind it a feeling of contentment and fond recollections. It cannot fail to urge us on in our endeavor to produce the best Valencia orange of which nature is capable. Truly representative of the great Valencia orange industry of California, and community spirit of the southland, the pep and enterprise of the people of Orange county, the show, which took on more proportions of an exposition, reflects great credit upon its directors and management and exemplifies the undated spirit of Anaheim's progressive citizens. CHARLES MANN—"A great advertisement for the community. It was an excellent success from all angles. The auto show was a great boost for the auto industry." ARTHUR A. COHEY, proprietor of Jewel Box—"The show was a wonderful boost for the city. It gets the people in the habit of coming to Anaheim. I would like to have the show repeated next year." R. G. BIXLER, manager of the J. C. Penny Co.—"The show this year surpassed last year's, and has compared very favorably with the show in San Bernardino. BB. H. Snock, manager at the San Bernardino shows that Anaheim has far surpassed the show at San Bernardino. In years to come Anaheim will have the greatest Orange Show in the south. I think this is good advertisement for Anaheim and Orange county." WM. GOODRUM, of the Anaheim Auto Co.—"I am more than satisfied with the way the show turned out. It has brought us real business results. I am sure the Automobile Association will vote to have the auto shows in connection with the Orange shows as each benefits the other." Cord Tire Displayed at Show Ran 51,000 Mi. The McClaren cord tire displayed at the Fernmont Agriculture Experiment Station, page 54 giving manure analysis, page 57 amount produced per animal, page 57 values (which are much less than present day value prices), page 59 and 60 plant food losses by reaching and otherwise and page 62 are of barnyard fertilizers to stop the waste etc. It ran 4000 miles on a Sutherland Via Juana stage; 27,000 on the rear wheel of a Hudson owned by J. Tischer in the Liberty Stage service to Camp Kearney; retreaded and run 1,000 on front; again retreaded and run 10,000. All Camp Kearney stables are using McClaren cords, the latter stated. Nearly 4000 registered guesses in the contest. A number guessed 51. It was necessary to draw for a winner. The prize was a 30x3½ McClaren cord or equivalent. NEW RY. STRIKE LOOMS DETROIT, Mich. May 31. — A strike of railroad roundhouse workers became a possibility today. Strike ballots were sent to all railroad employees affected by the wage outordered by railroad labor board. WASHINGTON, May 31.—The United States has rejected another invitation from the allies to participate in the forthcoming conference if the allies with Russia and Germany at The Hague, it was made known at the state department today. Pigin Center for Good Job Printing manager at the San Bernardino show states that Anaheim has far surpassed the show at San Bernardino. In years to come Anaheim will have the greatest Orange Show in the south. I think this is good advertisement for Anaheim and Orange county." WM. GOODRUM, of the Anaheim Auto Co.—"I am more than satisfied with the way the show turned out. It has brought us real business results. I am sure the Automobile Association will vote to have the auto shows in connection with the Orange shows as each benefits the other. By all means have this as annual affair." SIDNEY E. PRINCE, of the Prince Store—"One grand success from the first day to the closing performance. From every view point the show itself was just a dream land and we know that from the hundreds of new faces that visited our store during the show week, it was the finest thing that could come to our city, and Anaheim should be proud to give the people of So. Calif. an Orange Show as this. Our business far exceeded any week in the last several months. The success of this year should insure the show to be an annual affair. C. C. SMITH, superintendent of the grammar schools—"I am for anything that boosts the wide awake and progressive city of Anaheim. I enjoyed the show immensely and heard manyattering comments from the show reflects a state of years dit upon the city and colm Fraser and the others on the committee should be given three cheers. F. HAYURST, of the Lindsey Shoe Store—"I was greatly pressed with the show this year and it would be very foolish to discontinue having them. Many visitors were here from outlying districts who were greatly impressed with the exhibits. People at Long Beach had talked of the show before the opening night, and they were more than delighted when they were here. From a personal standpoint as well as from patrons whom I have conversed with, the town has won a reputation which will be carried on in the following years when the Orange Show will be put on." Citizens Keen foracia Show Every Year Orange show has come and gone in hardworking promoters said it would and marveled. Incidentally, many of allied for the first time to Anaheim lining it. Probably no other city of to stage such a pretentious under-it out so successfully. For one criticism of the plan to stage what a few of the businessmen of for such it was: SHOULD PRACTICE POULTRY CULLING Trap-nesting is the only true means of determining production, but conformation of birds, color indications, and the make-up of the individual hens must always be under surveillance by the owner. The University of California Extension Service through their many local agencies throughout the state have arranged for a series of culling demonstrations to acquaint the new poultrymen and many of the older ones as well, with the points to be observed in determining the yayers from the non-layers. The local poultry committee assisting the Assistant Farm Advisor on Extension projects for this year, have arranged for four of these demonstrations in Orange county on June 19 and 20. These demonstrations or meetings will be held on poultry ranches and in four parts of the county. This will enable embryo poultrymen and others interested in learning of the real value of flock culling, to get to at least one mecring. In order to get a check on the value of such instruction, a record of the birds will be kept by theoperator ten days before they wore culled and a record of both culls and others 16 days after the demonstration. Watch for future announcements. Demonstration Thurs. of Deciduous Fruit Farm Advisor Wahlberg announces two important field meetings Thursday, June 1st for the deciduous fruit growers of Orange-ced. Fruit thinning, summer pruning and pest control will be demonstrated and discussed at both meetings. Prof. H. H. Overholser, specialist on Deciduous fruits from the College of Agriculture, will assist the farm advisor. Apricots, peaches and apples will be handled in the morning at 10 o'clock at Harvey Rifner's orchard on Bryan-st, Tustin, near Red Hill-ave., 1 mile east of Tustin Bank. Commercial apple orchard management will be handled in the afternoon at 2 o'clock at D. J. Dodge's orchard, Costa Mesa. Spraying will be a feature of the afternoon meeting. PUREBRED STOCK OUTSELL SCRUBS J. C. Craig of Owensmouth, owner of a remarkable herd of Duroc-Jersey hogs, spoke very emphatically in favor of purebred stock at the big livestock meeting at La Habra last Saturday. "Whether it is hogs, cows, horses, sheep or poultry, pedigree stock possessing individuality is absolutely essential for a permanent agricultural program," said Mr. Craig. "The returns from the offspring will often justify the maintaining of a purebred herd, and the sale of the butcher stuff will always excense scrubs," he continued. In emphasizing this latter point, Mr. Craig presented a concrete ex- June 19 and 20. These demonstrations or meetings will be held on poultry ranches and in four parts of the county. This will enable embryo poultrymen and others interested in learning of the real value of flock culling, to get to at least one mecring. In order to get a check on the value of such instruction, a record of the birds will be kept by the cooperator ten days before they were cultured and a record of both culls and others 16 days after the demonstration. Watch for future announcements. U. S.

Time to Swat Fly Removal of all filth, garbage and other attractions for flies is essential. Flies will not thrive if sufficient energy is expended to keep possible breeding places sprayed and kept barns, milk houses and feed rooms clean. The State Department of Agriculture is recommending the following spray to be used in stables, pens and on animals, the latter with slight applications. 5 gallons kerosene. 1 pint of either oil of Mirbans, oil of tar, or Cresylic acid.
