HORSE RACING HELPS
SUPPORT COUNTY FAIRS
Millions of visitors attend the
annual agricultural and livestock
fairs in California—expositions
made possible largely through financial support of the state.
Funds for the purchase of
grounds, construction if fair facilities, payment of premiums,
expenses of operations, management and supervision are derived
from the state’s four per cent
levy on pari-mutual wagering on
horse racing.
The primary purpose of the
California fair program is_ to
further improve agricultural and
livestock production through
competitive showing at the 77
fairs which receive financial support from the state.
In addition to this educational
objective and the providing of
entertainment for fair-goers, is
the aim to increase all-year use
of fairgrounds and facilities by
the communities in’ which fairs
are located. .
Today -the fair is—as it has
always been—the greatest show
on earth.

CAN A LANDOWNER TAKE
FISH FROM TRESPASSER?
‘Can a California landowner
claim the fish or game caught by
a tresspasser? . :
Is public fishing permitted, on
all waters stocked by the state?
What is legally posted land? .
Answers to these and many
other timely questions :on the
state’s trespass laws have been
made available* to California
sportsmen by the Santa Anita
Sportsmen’s Club. J. B. Tietz,
Los Angeles attorney, has put
together laws and opinions from
several sources under the title
“Hunting and Fishing Trespass.”
Copies of the pocket-size booklet are sold by the club secretary,
Room 517 Douglas building, 257
South Spring street, Los Angeles,
12. Cost is three copies for one
dollar.
According to the booklet, game
surprised and killed by a trespasser belongs to the owner of
the land. The old common law
principle was.upheld in 1897 by
the California supreme court.
‘While it is the policy of the
fish and game commission not
to stock waters that are posted
or to permit stocking on any private property unless at least one
third of the water is open to public fishing, the state is without
recourse when private’ property
is later closed to entry.
Legally posted property is defined as uncultivated or unenclosed lands where signs forbidding
trespass are displayed at intervals not less than three to the
mile along roads and exteriors
boundaries. Entering lands under cultivation or enclosed by
fence for the. purpose of hunting
or fishing is a criminal trespass.
Among the booklet’s contributors is Deputy Attorney General
Ralph W. Scott, counsel for the
California fish and game commission.

GAS TAX WOULD BUY
FUEL FOR 3 VACATIONS
Californians, in the last fiscal
year, paid taxes on 3,342,257,219
gallons of gasoline, butane andpropane—enough fuel for three
coast-to-coast round trips by each
of California’s three and a half
million passenger cars—Jerro]d
L. Sewell announced.
These taxes contributed $134,060,902 for building and maintaining California’s city streets
and its’ 80,111 miles of county
roads and state highways. Total
tax collections on gasoline and
other high-test motor fuels sola
during the 1949-50 fiscal year
amounted to $149,69,274, but
$15,578,372 of that amount was
refunded by Controller Thomas
H. Kuchel to persons who bought
such fuels for nonhighway use.
Sewell stated that Californians
are virtually living on wheels.
Not only did they buy three and
a third billion gallons of motor
fuel last year, but they spent
more than three billion dollars
for the purchase, maintenance
and operation of their motor
vehicles.

JEARLY GOLD SCALES
FEATURE COUNTY
EXHIBIT AT FAIR
Seales which date back to California’s early gold rush days and
are reputed to have weighed
$1,000,000 in fine gold and nuggets, are being displayed in the
Nevada county exhibit . at the
California State Fair in Sacramento.
The scales have been lent to
County Agriculture Commissioner Leonard G. Lageson, by the
Bank of America and'they have
[been given center location in the
huge display of quartz and placer
gold exhibited by the county.
The scales were purchased ‘by
N. D. Rideout, pioneer banker in
the historic gold regions of California, but records show they
were tested as early as 1857 for
accuracy by the U.S. bureau of
standards.
As mining activities developed
in Nevada county and through
the Mother Lode,: the scales were
used more and more to weigh the
riches taken from Sierra mines
and placer claims.
Nevada county has a very
impressive display of gold valued
at more than $60,000. This includes quartz rich in the yellow
metal and fine gold from placer
claims.
Also being shown are samples
when it is raw serpentine to the
time it becomes the finished article. The serpentine is processed
by crushing to a powder which
is later calcined. It then becomes liquid and later turns to
crystals. From the crystal, the
magnesium is formed.
Pears and apples, for which
the: county is famous, complete
the display.

UNION LEADER ELECTED
GOP COUNTY LEADER
Election of a union leader as a
Republican county chairman in
an important California county
was pointed out as an eye-opener
for members of labor_unions by
Nevada county Republican Central Committee.
Barrett said the chairman of
the Humboldt County Republican Central Committee is Vio
Antonio Caracappa, who is president of the Bartender’s Union
local 14 in Eureka. Caracappa
came to California 15 years ago
from New York and settled in
the northern California fishing
and lumber industry center.
Caracappa said, “I’ve been a
registered Republican as long as
I’ve been eligible to vote in this
state.”
Barrett said, “Caracappa’s election as county chairman climaxed a series of interesting developments, all of which showed many
union members they had been
misled*-about the Republican
Party’s attitude toward the labor
‘movement.”
