RE-DlSTRICTINC
BATTLE BEGINS
in CAL. SENATE
By MYRON ". DEPEw,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

SACRAMENTO, Cal, April 16.--
Attention of the upper house OF
the stat legislature was turned tC
the problem of reapportionment to
day. Three measures calling fol
revision of the legislative repre-
sentation are on file for specia
consideration in the senate.
Little hope is held that any of
the measures will be favorablv en-
dorsed because of the action Of the
assembly yesterday in defeating
two proposals of this kind. Plans
by Assemblymen S. L. Heisinger
and Thomas Dodge were turned
down by the lowIr house without
a great deal of formality.
Two of the measures to be con
sidered by the senate today call
for a reapportionment along strict
ly constitutional lines based on
population. The third is a consti-
tutional amqndment which would
give the rural districts the balance
of power in the upper house.
Senators Ed Sample, San Diego
Harry Chamberlain, Los Angeles
and T. C.. West, Alameda, are auth
ors of the reapportionment meas
ures and Senators c. C. Baker, Sa-
linas; Frank S. Boggs, Stockton;
NJ. b. Harris, Fresno and Herbert
Jones of San Joses are the Trainers
of the ether.
Farm Bloc May Endorse
The constitutional amendment
was drawn up by Boggs, Baker,
Chester Kline of Riverside and H.
c. Nelson of Eureka. This measure
will probably receive the support
of the farm bloc in the upper
house as it ambodies the so called
three <eighths-f eigh.hs plan
which is favored by them.
Opponents of the one cent gaso-
line tax bill today were comeen-
trating their fore Is in the assembly.
A move to reconsider the vote by
which the Breed bill passed in the
upper house, failed to materialize
yesterday and the bill was sent to
the lower house for final eons;dera-
tion.
1t is believed no action will be
.aken On the measure by the as
semblv before Monday. Only as
Sembly bills will be taken up in
that house during the remainder of
the week and until these are dis
posed of, ethe. Breed bill must mark
time. <rs..i So
Today the assembly will consider
u bill contemplating transfer of
.he control of San Francisco har-
Dor from the state to that city.
This attempt is made zach session
of the legislature.

Find Advantages
in Saving Seed
Selection Often Is Better
Than Can Be Given to
Market Product.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The home or local gardener and the
greenhouse gardener will often find 1t
advantageous and profitable to save
their own seed, at least for some of
their vegetables, says the United States
Department Of Agriculture. In earlier
times the home saving of seeds was
the rule. This custom has practically
ceased, although there are distinct ad-
vantages even under present conditions
for continuing the practice.
Suitable for Shipping.
The tendency of large-scale vegetable
producers at present is to produce
vegetables that are suitable for ship
ping long distances, and this has
caused a decided lessening of varieties
handled The characters necessarily
chosen for these varieties that will ship
long distances are determined by ship
ping and market requirements, and too
often a high culinary quality has been
neglected. Both the home and market
gardener are in position to profit by.
growing vegetables of high culinary
quality. This Is best done by saving
the seed of proven varieties at home.
Many garden varieties carry place
names or names Of persons which &C.
casionally indicate that they have been
developed by community selection In
the localities shown. AS late as the
middle of the last century many indi-
vidual market gardeners in this coun-
try jealousy guarded the seed of GER
tain varieties and strains which repre-
scented years of intelligent selection in
their hands. A few such superlative
varieties are yet to be found in the pos
session of gardeners near the old mar
ket-gardening centers. That there are
advantages in thus saving seed where
It lis grown is generally recognized. :
Advantages Two-FoId.
These advantages are two-fold: (1)
The selection which the gardener gives
his seed plants, while not greater than
the seed grower gives his seed stock, is
often better than can be. given to the
seed that is placed on the market; and
(2) the plants selected will be the ones
which succeed best under local environ
ment. Certain vegetables in which
cross-pollination is normal will, OF
course, mix badly If two varieties are
seeded in one garden together.
Weather or other conditions some
times cause a short crop Of seed or
failure. Fortunately. well-matured
seeds, if properly stored, with the pos
sible exception of those of the parsnip
and onion, will retain their vitality for
from three to five years. 1t is thus pos
sible to tide over poor years and to
grow most of the seed needed for
small garden.
