MAKE PLANS TO INVITE TOURISTS To help Anaheim get its share of tourists entering California from the south the Anaheim Realty Board yesterday passed a resolution in favor of appointing a committee to confer with the Anaheim C. of C. with the object of obtaining subscriptions with which to have printed and distributed literature regarding Anaheim in the camps and on the trains about San Bernardino, Redlands, etc. Merchants and other businessmen will be interviewed, if the C. of C. consents, and the latter will be asked to look after the preparation of the leaflets and folders. The luncheon was held at the LaPalma cafeteria. Seler P. Selersen, secretary of the Anaheim Building & Loan Ass'n, was today's speaker. His talk was a conglomerate of reminiscences about his former homes in the Dakotas, his own business, etc. He declared that he had seen one small town after another grow and prosper and he was sure Anaheim was going to do so. He explained the building and loan business in some detail. Sweden will be linked with Finland by a wireless telephone service. Settle Out of Court The controversy between S. A. Clark and Charles B. Morgan over an exchange of property in Santa Ana for acreage on the Isle of Pines, near Cuba, was settled out of court. It was announced today. Clark had exchanged his property in Santa Ana for 35 acres on the Isle of Pines, receiving in addition $4500 in cash. The Santa Ana property had been valued at $9000 in the deal. Finding, he claigned, that the island acreage was worthless. Clark sued for $4500 damages. It was under stood that the deal is to be called off and all money refunded.

Wahlberg, Farm Advisor As Orange co had a copious precipitation during the month of April, most soils on which vranges and lemons are growing have had ample supply of moisture to last for several weeks, particularly on the heavier soils. Numerous observations and soil borings made by the Agricultural Extension Service this month indicate that many soils are in ideal shape at the present time and promise to have sufficient moisture until from the first of June to first of July. It will behoove every irrigator to make a special investigation of his soil moisture at this time in order that he will not put on an irrigation application until the soil actually needs moisture. Too much moisture at this time of the year may result in injury rather than benefit to the tree roots. Where the soil is still moderately moist below the surface to a depth of three or four feet, would be a mistake to add excessive water at this time, as it will not only reduce the temperature of the soil but also discourage bacterial activity and exclude soil air, which is required for the normal growth of citrus roots. Now is the time to put the tree in proper shape for the fall desert winds, and this is best done by putting the soil environment of the root zone in the best conditions for root development. If tree roots are discouraged by the use of too much water, it will have a tendency to reduce the root system and thus when a special demand is made on the tree during the desert winds in the fall for extra moisture, the limited root system will be unable to take up the moisture required for the tree. It will therefore be desirable on the loamy soils and heavier types to hold off irrigation until the soil actually needs moisture, thus promoting feeder root growth and creating a larger root system at this time.

Anaheim a tendency to reduce the root system and thus when a special demand is made on the tree during the desert winds in the fall for extra moisture, the limited root system will be unable to take up the moisture required for the tree. It will therefore be desirable on the loamy soils and heavier types to hold off irrigation until the soil actually needs moisture, thus promoting feeder root growth and creating a larger root system at this time. With the enlarged root system formed and proper irrigation during the summer and fall, the trees will be able to withstand the desert blasts. General observations show that it is a wise practice to hold off early spring irrigation until later in the season, followed by copious irrigations during the summer and previous to the desert winds, which generally start in October. The writer has found that citrus growers on gravelly soils have been inclined to too frequent irrigation. The proper supposition is that a gravelly soil should receive two or three times the amount of water that a loam or heavy soil should receive. As a matter of fact many of the gravelly loans can use from 1-3 to 1-2 as much and at longer intervals than has been customary in the past. Many groves have been found to deteriorate on the gravelly lrams with excessive use of water. The exhaustive survey conducted by the Citrus Experiment Station a year ago, embracing some 200 groves in Orange co., revealed a most significant fact in the relation of irrigation to production. In brief, the summary of irrigation practice on 200 groves indicates that maximum production for both oranges and lemons was reached where less than the average amount of water was used. You will notice from the chart: Relation of Yield to Water Thousands of Pounds Acre Inches Oranges Lemons Light ... -14 18.9 23.9 Moderate 14-18 20.5 26.6 Usual 15-22 20.1 25.8 Heavy ... 22-26 19.9 25.5 Very heavy 26 19.5 24.7 That the highest yields, viz. 20,500 pounds for oranges and 26,600 pounds for lemons were produced with 14 to 18 acre inches of water, which represents two to four inches less than the average amount of water used by the average grove in the county. Thus firing would indicate that the average grower in this region was using more water than necessary at the expense of the crop. Of course, it will be understood that the amount of water indicated on this chart for maximum production will not inset the require A striking model is developed in a straightline frock which is covered with a design of large motifs done in Hungarian wool embroidery in bright colors.

SMALL OPERATOR GETS BIG WELL Long Beach's greatest oil producer for many weeks fell to the lot of the small operator when W. H. Fisher brought in a 2250-barrel well at No. 7. It was necessary to go down to the deep sand to get this production and the Fisher well was finished at 5050 feet. The production of the Fisher well registers 28 gravity and the oil is as clean as any the Long Beach field has ever produced. Prior to the getting of the big well, Fisher has been blessed with about all the troubles an oil man aen have, and he is deserving of his big success. The Monrovia Oil Co. now holds an enviable position on Signal Hill. This little company brought in its second well, a 1500-barrel producer, a few days ago, and along with its No. 1 one of the best wells in the southeast section of the Hill, the Monrovia, is not only in a position to pay its stockholders handsomely, but has been doing this very thing for a long time. The McKeon Drilling Co. handled the field operations for the Monrovia and it is understood to have drilled the wells at a figure considerably less than the average. A wild rush characterizes the situation in the new field, Roscrans-Athens on the Hill.. The Union's Athena No. I, formerly known as the Potter well, has demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt the possibilities of the new field and there is no hesitation on the part of other companies to start operations on properties they have been holding for some time, the land owners to arrange new leases, and the real estate sharks to sell lots and burial plots for unheard of high prices.

This firing would indicate that the average grower in this region was using more water than necessary at the expense of the crop. Of course, it will be understood that the amount of water indicated on this chart for maximum production will not meet the requirements of every individual, but clearly shows that there is a tendency towards over irrigation on many ranches. It will behoove every grower to make a closer study of the moisture requirements of his soil and made his soil auger a closer companion than in the past. In conclusion it may be said that water is the basis of life but if used in excess can result in much harm. RE-ARREST CLARK J. J. Clark was arrested again by Fullerton police and was expected to come up before Judge French today on the charge of being drunk. Officers say that this become a regular habit. Clark was released on ball of $25. Transito Savalo, 18, of Santa Ana, was picked up last night by Fullerton police, charged with wandering about town until 3 a.m. He was still in jail today. EXCHANGE OF RUM TREATIES SHORTLY WASHINGTON, May 22.—The exchange of ratification making effective the rum treaty with Great Britain is expected to occur within a few days, it was learned at the state department today. The ratification of the treaty by the British parliament arrived in Washington today and the senate of the United States having already ratified the pact, it will be put into effect shortly. The hoof and mouth disease is a very old scourge as it was known in the British Isles during the time of Alfred the Great. It has been found that the actual work of the "busy" bee is performed in about half a day. A wild rush characterizes the situation in the new field, Rosecrans-Athens on the Hill. The Union's Athena No. I, formerly known as the Potter well, has demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt the possibilities of the new field and there is no hesitation on the part of other companies to start operations on properties they have been holding for some time, the land owners to arrange new leases, and the real estate sharks to sell lots and burial plots for unheard of high prices. One 80-acre lease near the Potter well brought an offer of $3,000,-000 and was refused. Another 40-acre tract solicited an offer of $2,000,000. As high as $12,000 has been paid for town lots, and the prevailing lease bonus per acre is $3000 and a one-fourth royalty. However, operators, legitimate operators, are not paying these prices, as they have in mind what happened at Santa Fe Springs in town lot drilling; and the Lomita field experience is still a sore spot. Field developments at Athens are moving fast, three of the largest oil producers of the state, the Standard, General Petroleum Corporation and Associated Oil Co.'s having started wells this week. Among the smaller concerns to get under way with new work are the Superior Oil Co., the Sentinel Oil Co., the St. Helens Petroleum Co., and the Barnsdall Oil Co. The prevailing opinion is that the field runs northwest and southeast the better part of the field being in the southeast. The Domingues field is getting ready for a new state record in deep production. The General Petroleum's Austin No. I was drilled to 5492 feet, a string of 6 1-4 at 5460 feet, and when the cement is drilled out and the well bailed down Southern California is scheduled to have a thriller in deep sand production and demonstrate that fact that it is not wise to quit short of 6000 feet in drilling a well anywhere in Southern California. That the Domingues field does not extend southwest to the Union Oil Co.'s Gardena well is practically conceded. At 5980 feet the Union test well is in a sandy brown shale and not showing any very encouraging oil showings. Classified Ads Bring Good Results A NATION-WIDE INSTITUTION - J.C. Penney Co.
