Governor Brown previously had vetoed a bill which permitted a board of supervisors to remove a county counsel arbitrarily on grounds it did not provide the ie ee ae eV ee ‘Re Bill 1539. eee Governor Brown © also signed into law AB 571, Assemblyman Carlos Bee (D-Hayward) and Assemblyman Dorothy M. Denahoe (D-Bakersfield), which appropriates. $300,000 to the Department of Education to participate in benefits of the National Derense Education Act of 1958, The state will realize $5 million in federal funds to assist local school districts in programs in science, mathematics and foreign languages. It is an urgency measure, taking effect immediately. * * *@ & Governor Brown also signed a series of bills tightening the laws governing the driving of motor vehicles. One prohibits a person ffom driving while under the combined influence of liquor and any drug which incapacitates -him from driving safely. Another requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to revoke the driver's license of any person found by a juvenile court judge to have committed two or more’ offenses involving hit and run, reckless driving or a combination thereof within 12 months. Another sets the minimum age of 21 for driving instructors of commercial driving schools. Another authorizes the Depart: ment of Public Works to establish minimum speed zones on the basis of engineering and traffic studies and eliminates the exemption of trucks from the minimum speed rule, making them subject to the same rules as autos. * 2s 3 8 Signing of the budget by Governor Brown immediately set up an accelerated statewide conservation and recreational program using minimum security state prison inmates in a far-flung system of conservation camps.

Those that he does. not sign will automatically be pocket vetoed and their proponents will have to try again in’ future sessions. Many organizations and individuals will be claiming great victories for themselves. Many of these groups ‘will deserve praise, for they have truly earned great victories. Governor Brown and his administration introduced and supported a large number of measures. His batting average will undoubtedly be high, and he.can justifiably claim great victories in several fields. The administration’s water program ,carried by Senator Hugh Burns of Fresno Gounty, is the major victory. To all of California, the passage of this legislation means that we are many steps closer to supplying water from our areas of surppius to our areas of deficiency. . The farmers of California, too, can claim great victories in this . nanan ments, in state parks to provide more recreational areas. The budget provides $8.5 million for the expanded conservation camp program, and the number of men in such camps will} be increased from 995 at the start of this year to about 1,800 in December. SB 516, authored by Senate Stanley Arnold (D-Susanville), also provides for creati of a division of conservation in the Department of Corrections. It will be signed shortly by the Governor. It provides for a Department of Corrections conservation center in Lassen County, two branches in Tuolumne and Mono Counties and such other branches as the department decides-are necessary. Four. existing 60-man camps in San Diego, Placer, Humboldt, and Fresno Counties will be increased to 80 immediateley, Eight 80-man camps will be expanded termporarily to 100 in San Diego, Mendocino, Butte, Calaveras, Shasta, and Monterey Counties. Two new camps in Fresno and San Bernardino Counties will be opened shortly.

They have adjourned the session and are now in their home districts for a much-needed rest. It is an excellent opportunity for you ,the local voter, to visit and discuss problems with your own legislators; take advantage of it. The 1959: session of the California Legislature may not go down in history as the most important of all time; however, it was certainly one of great confusion and conflict. Everyone, whether his program won, lost or was a draw, breathed a sight of relief when the hour of midnight arrived and Legislature adjourned. Farming Needs Facts To Beat Competition If agriculture is to keep with “tremendous changes” the food and fiber industries, it must store up facts as banks store dollars. These “savings accounts of information,” ’says Emil Mrak, chancellor-elect of the University of California at Davis, are vital if farm products’ are to maintain their position against the inroads of synthetics. “Cotton is a classic example of a crop that too little was known about when it was faced withthe terrific competition of synthetic fibers,” Mrak says. “Cotton had to cach up fas. We had to learn a great deal about it, and to develop new uses for it to keep it competitive.” : That lgpse mght have been prevened,*Mrak says, had a store of nformation on the crop been developed through basic research. The role of the agricultural college, Mrak points out, is to help keep farmers in a competitive position in the increasing contest for consumer attention. “There is more talk of synthetic food and fiber products,” Mrak. says. “Agriculturae, and training institutions for agriculture, must be developing the savings accounts of information that will keep the grower economically strong.” Mrak made the comments in a welcoming address to walnut growers at the recent Edible Tree Nht Conference at Davis. Avoid Multiple Tractor Riders “Tractors are equipped for only one rider—the driver and no more,” says Farm Advisor William Helphinstine of the University of California Agricultural According to the National Safety Council, the majority of children in the I to 9 year old group killed or injured in tractor accidents last year were extra riders—just along for the ride. There is no safe place for a tractor operator that space provided for .him, the seat. No other spot has been constructed on the tractor which could be classed a safe place for an extra rider. Don’t be a “good” guy and give a fella’ a {lift on a tractor. A sharp turn, little hump, or fast jerk is enough }: to throw the hitchhiker off balance and into a statistic.

Some members of the C.A.N. claim to handle the bulk of their garden color this way. Annuals are grown in gallon containers in some out of the way corner and moved to the front as they come to bloom, In addition to the continuous color this provides, they point out that weeding the container ne is just as easy as pie. There’s no limit to the varicty of bedding plant annuals you can set out in containers. Butthe most effective replacements in big beds are the medium to tall growers, planted one to the gallon can and pinched when young to encourage.. bushiness. Stock, snapdragon, tall merigold, zinnia, even petunia, are all candidates: for a nursery can. In their season —which is a cooler season for best results—calendula and cineraria are also to be tried. Dwarf dahlia, nual, can be treated as one. It is excellent for spot color or for massing in containers. The gardener should be cautioned that the method is no cure ali, It would take a vast area of growing space to keep color coming on at every month of the year. Moreover, the color we do
get from container-grown shrubs is not to be scorned. But for filling in, for drownright fun, the culture of annuals in containers is a garden trick you should learn.

Plastic Film Saves Water “Plastic film for irrigation ditches offers a way to save water during this year of reduced water supplies ,reports Farm Advisor Bill Helphinstine of the University of California. He points out that the tight water supplies are the rule throughout those areas of Nevada County where direct diversion from streams is the water source. Growers using emergency plastic ditch lining where seepage is known to occur are helping conserve such water supplies. The black polyethylene plastic film can be rolled into rapidly prepared ditches in a matter of hours. The material ranges in cost from two to four cents per square foot. It may be removed before the winter months and saved for future use. ’ More information on plastic shrubs such as fuchsias and hydrangeas thrown in. More: likely, F it is jdst that sum pomil shrubs get. less attention thai their publicized: counterparts of spring. This fails to give credit where credit is due. Annuals and perennials are fine, as are fuchsias and hydrangeas, but it leaves too many good shrubs out in the cold each summer—shrubs that can give color for months on end. Take glossy abelia, for instance. This handsome evergreen is never unattractive even out of bloom. And in summer it is joaded with white, bell-shaped flowers that exude a wonderful fragrance. Dwarfer and contrasting with glossy abelia—since its foliage is silvery gray—isc the little-known bush morning glory. The alifornia Association of Nurserymen ranks bush morning glory high on the list for its compact habit, pleasant foliage and white morning} glyory shaped blooms in late spring and summer. Another good one that’s seldom seen is the red bottle brush, inter-. esting both for its graceful growth -and the summer-long display of! film ditch liners may be obtained m@ the farm and home eavipcs > s Vete BROWN SPOTS Brown spots on. lawns—especially when they are accompanied by low-flying moths in the evening—are often the result of damage by lawn moth larvae. if you suspect the critters, ask your nurseryman to recommend a spray. One—occasionally two— thorough applications is usually sufficient for control. San Benito and Monterey Counties lead all other counties in the state in the production of garlic. semble a bottle brush. You can’t miss it, if and when you see it. The shrubby new lantanas are good not only in Southern California, but brilliant and colorful in northern gardens as well. Gardenias are worth growing for a year’s bloom even where frost threatens in winter. Oleanders should never be far out of sight where weather is warm enough to bring out the best in them.
