Sunday morning ihe party made an early inspection of the winter blue grass fields at the Hunley At Hoover ranch four miles west of .Medford, where the grass was developed. Leaving Medford at 6:00 a. m. j the party proceeded to Ager, Cal., j where they were met hy W. H. Sherman of Montague, C. E. Tin ner, president, and J. P. Churchill secretary of the Yreka Chamber of Commerce, and about 50 enthu siastic farmers and dairymen. I'nder the leadership of W, B Sherman. , the party then visited the Hains ranch where they In spected a beautiful stand of win ter blue grass, which has had no Irrigation and only about three f Inches of rainfall. Prof, Harry Schoth of the department of ngrl-j culture stated that under these conditions, the growth of this grass was remarkable. The caravan nnd local people were photographed in tho winter blue grass field and moving pi'-! t it res were made while the in spection was going on. The pic tures were f o r w a r d e d to Del Monte by airplane to bo shown at the Seedsmen's convention. Tho Mains ranch demonstration, according to Mr. Sherman, proves conclusively that millions of acres of California hillsides now aban doned to sage brush may In the near future be utilized for the growing of this grass as a winter forage crop.

Banks against smudging appearing in this paper today, is a duplica tion of i,ik printed on Saturday of lust Wrt-k, Mr. Hanks is a successful orch ardist both In this district and In California, and enjoys the reputa tion of nlo b,ihg an unusually capable and shrewd business man. Anything he says therefore about orchurd administration Is carefully read and seriously con sidered. Moreover Mr. Bunks by. his mar keting methods and cash payment pt) lie ies as a fruit broker here, has drawn tu, himself a large and loyal following. According to some ob servers, there will be some orch- ardists therefore who will try out the policy of non-smudging next year simply because Mr. Banks advises them to do so. As a whole, however, fruit men claim the Itogue Hiver valley Is "sold" on smudging as not only desirable but absolutely necessary.
