WHY NOT TAKE UP RANCHING COURSE?
What do Fullerton Union high school graduates do on completing their school work? This question was recently asked. Do they take courses in the H. S. that are most worth while to them both from an educational and vocational standpoint.
Some go to college, others into mercantile or other business, the oil fields, and so on, but upward of 50 per cent go into agricultural work. Those who go to the University have prepared themselves for entrance, and those who go into commercial or business activities have probably taken courses in money and banking, commercial law, salesmanship, etc., thus being prepared in part for the work they are entering. The boy who goes into the oil industries has likely taken work in mathematics, chemistry or physics that will be an aid to him.
How about the boy who is going to make his living from some type of farming or agricultural work? Has he taken advantage of what the school offers him? He may say, "Well I was raised on the farm, what can those school teachers tell me about ranching"? He may have been raised on a farm, and a good one at that. Along with, he may have had a father who took an interest in him, and tried to teach him the technical and scientific side of the farm business, yet the agricultural work of the high school still offers him many helpful things that he does not get at home.
Abundant evidence to this effect is met with continually by all agricultural instructors in high schools. There are surprisingly few boys who have any clear or definite ideas covering the fundamentals of irrigation, cultivation, fertilization, insects and diseases or their control, and an endless number of other topics vital to success on the ranch.

FEW WALNUT TREES SET AS FAR APART AS IS ADVISABLE
FEW WALNUT TREES SET AS FAR APART AS IS ADVISABLE
Only five walnut groves out of 141 chosen at random, located in various sections of Orange county, which is the world's greatest walnut producing center, have the trees set as wide apart as they should be. This starting bit of information came to light when the California Walnut Growers Ass'n announced the result of a survey which it conducted in Orange-coast summer in co-operation with Farm Adviser Wahiberg.
Horticultural experts long ago arrived at the conclusion that walnut trees, to produce the most satisfactory results, should be set not closer than 60 feet apart. The wisdom of such a policy was recently proved by C. C. Teague, president of the California Walnut Growers' Ass'n, who announced that after taking out every other tree on his famous Lameira Ranch he got heavier tonnage and better walnuts.
In the opinion of Mr. Teague, most of the walnut groves in Southern California are crowded, and his conclusion is borne out by the result of the recent survey. He says that half the trees in many groves could be taken out with ultimate profit to the owner. The fact that the groves in Orange county, one of the best horticultural sections in the state are badly cramped for room is conclusive proof that Mr. Teague speaks with authority.
The Association in its survey assembled data concerning 141 walnut groves located in various sections of Orange county, representing 1,665.41 acres. These included 1616 bearing and 49 non-bearing acres, 5 groves were set 60x60 feet, which is the proper distance; 69 were set 40x40; 48x48; 11 were set 45x45; 7 were set 42x42; and the others, in single instances ranged all the way from 40x45 and 38x88 down to 30x30 and 24x24 feet apart.
W. T. Webber, sales manager of the Ass'n, says that where walnut trees stand closer than 60x60 feet in the rows they do not get the necessary amount of sunshine and circulation of air. Association officials are agreed that if crowded groves are properly thinned, the net result for a year or two may be somewhat smaller than formerly, but the ultimate result will be greater in tonnage as well as in size and quality.
During its recent survey the Ass'n inspected 1309 groves in Orange county. These are owned by 1239 persons. The average acreage per home cooking in a homely atmosphere—that attracts everyone who have high regard for their agricultural instructors in high schools. There are surprisingly few boys who have any clear or definite ideas covering the fundamentals of irrigation, cultivation, fertilization, insects and diseases or their control, and an endless number of other topics vital to success on the ranch. He may be able to run water down an irrigation furrow, but does he appreciate or understand the effects of the water on soils, on fertilizers, on trees, and the time to irrigate, and when not to irrigate? He can spread fertilizers on the land, but does he understand the effects that the various plant food elements have on his crops and thus intelligently select the food elements that bring the results he needs? Does he knew the comparative value of the various forms that these plant foods come in?
Does he have any adequate conception of the insect life that is almost a constant problem to the rancher of today? Experience with boys and ranchers to indicate that neither is well versed in this subject. The same applies to the majority of disease of the farm and garden.
What does he know concerning farm economics? Not many boys or ranchers even, have acquaintance with the valuable material worked out by the government covering the underlying principals of success in the ranch business. These are only a few of the large number of topics covered in the work offered in the high school department of agriculture.
Now if practically half of the boys in the H. S. are going to be ranchers, and the high school offers a lot of information the ranchers should have, and that he gets no where else, why should he not get it in the high school? This agricultural work covers only a part of his high school time. He must take his English, history, mathematics, hygiene and phys students. He must also take mechanics of the most practical kind. And is urged to take mathematics, physics, and chemistry if he has any idea of going to college or the university upon completing his course here. In fact he gets as well rounded a high school education as any other student there, and has ample opportunity for preparing for college entrance if he wishes.
About 75 percent of the boys in the upper grades of the high school district grammar schools have expressed an intention of being mechanics or engineers when they are men. Most of this 75 percent eventually finds that the great amount of mathematics or other technical detail required eliminates them from their boyish desires. They then begin to look for something within

A Man Living Alone In The Wilderness The Least Of These Risks Is That Thru California Biological Feature Service, Assumes Certain Risks Which We Who Live In Organized Communities Find It difficult To Understand. Not Accident Or Disease He May At Any Time Become Unable To Meet His Ordinary Conditions Of Life And So May Miserably Perish. Partial Compensation For Such Risks Is To Be Found In The Fact That Absence Of Other Men Insecurances Of The Multitudinous Disease Germs Which Some Of them May Carry And In The Fact That Accident Is Not To Be Feared From The Results Of Their Folly.
If Ten Other Men Join Him In The Wilderness, The Probability That Within A Year He Will Contract Some Disease Is Very greatly Increased. This Is Also True Of The Probability Of Accident To Him, But For Such Increases Of Risk In One Way He May Be Amply compensated By The Fact That One Man Of The Ten Has A Good Deal Of Skill In Handling Disease, In Dressing Wounds And In suggesting Methods Of Preserving Health And Strength.

It Is Nothing but the Plainest Honesty For The Community To Give Him A Fair Opportunity To Do Good Work. The Fact That Some Licensed Doctors Are Not As Awful And Skilled As One Desires Does Not In The Least Indicate That The Method Of Selection Of Those Who Are To Promote And Guard Public Health Is Wrong Or Even Undesirable.

Poultrymen representing Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Los Angeles-co met at the Farm Bureau Office at Santa Ana Friday Sept. 15. This meeting was authorized by the Regional Directors at their meeting at Riverside, Aug. 12, and it was the outgrowth of several months' investigation of poultry conditions by the Orange-co Farm Bureau.
A suggested method for the organizing and conducting of a poultry department was outlined to be submitted to the various counties. The name adopted was Seven Southern Counties Poultry Department of Region No. 1 of the California Farm Bureau Federation.
The recommendation to the Region that the other three counties of the district be invited to elect delegate to sit on this committee was approved. The committee was appointed to work out a suggested program of work and to submit it to the next meeting to be held at Riverside during the Fair, Friday, Oct. 13 at 9:00 a.m.
Other organization problems occupied most of the afternoon and the meeting adjourned with everyone feeling that a long step had been taken in meeting problems before the poultrymen of So. Calif. The results of this meeting will be submitted to the Regional Directors.
MEXICO PUTS BAN ON ALL ORIENTALS
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 22.—More than 1,000 Chinese have been rounded up in the Mexican states of Sonora and Sinaloa and are concentrated on a small island situated off the port of Mazatlan awaiting the arrival of a Japanese steamship that will carry them back to China.
The Chinese have incurred the enmity of the native business men because of the competition which they have waged in the various lines in which they were engaged. This is also true of Chinese laborers. The agitation against the presence of Chinese in Mexico began several years ago and has developed into much bitterness of feeling against them.
The animosity toward the Chinese has become so intensified in the last few years that a bill is to be introduced at the coming session of Mexican congress prohibiting further immigration of these orientals to Mexico. Japanese and all Asiatics may be included by the ban it is stated organizations having a general interest in the walnut industry of this state.

If the eleven men embark upon some strenuous enterprise together they will certainly arrange matters so that the peculiar ability of this man may be most surely and quickly available for aid to any member of the group.

Makers of fruit juice for home use must pay a revenue tax of 16 cents a gallon on all such beverages, if the alcoholic content is one-half of one per cent or more, according to a ruling received from Washington today by Collector of Internal Revenue Rex B. Goodcell.

The fact of the matter is that only a very limited number of people can be trusted to do faithful and intelligent work in preserving life and instead of relaxing our vigilance against imposters it is more and more necessary that we should increase it.
Yet there are many people advocating various measures to be voted upon this fall which either hamper properly qualified doctors or tend to release upon our communities a horde of ignorant practitioners. Some of these misguided folk maintain that a man has a right to seek any relief from alliment which strikes his fancy. What can be more absurd? If I am stricken with smallpox am I at liberty to spread it amongst my neighbors? If some die from such action am I not really as much a murder as if I killed them with poison or bullet? Does democracy mean that ten or a hundred men shall suffer at my pleasure but that they may not cause me inconvenience to save their lives or promote their own welfare?
Efficient measures for preservation of human life is more needed than they have ever been because life is more valuable than it has ever been. In complex communities in a highly specialized civilization every year added to life of a normal individual increases his usefulness to the community very greatly because his experience enables him to adjust himself properly to community needs.

For several weeks the Standard Oil company has not brought in any record producers. This week proved an exception with 100 barrel well at Huntington B-11. This big producer is another deep success for the field in that it was completed at 4176.
The Union Oil Company is getting a good share of the deep production that seems to be the re-making of the Huntington Beach field. The Union's Copeland No. 5 completed at 4300 is a 1000 barrel well. Copeland No. 12 a last week completion at 4410 is still making its 1400 barrels.
The property where the General Petroleum Corporation drilled the second dry hole at Huntington Beach has been purchased by a group of local men headed by J. H. Machlin, Wm. Meridith and Wm. Taylor and the well that was stopped at 4300 feet will be carried. The success of the Standard's Surf. 2 leads these men to believe that the General Petroleum stopped right on top of the oil sand and that it will be necessary to go only a few hundred feet up to duplicate the Surf 500 barrels gravity producer.
