FERTILIZER SUPPLIES
ASSURED DESPITE WAR

In contrast to the acute shortage
of fertilizer materials suffered at
the beginning of the last European
war, the present purchasing season
for fertilizer finds the country pre-
pared with adequate supplies for
this years crops.
"At the beginning Of the last
World War an immediate deficiency
of nitrogen carriers occurred"
said Charles J. Brand, Executive
Secretary and Treasurer of The
National Fertilizer Association.
"There was an almost total absence
of potash. Although there was
plenty of phosphate rock, there was
shortage of sulphuric acid needed
to make superphosphate.
"When war disrupted shipping
from 1914 to 1918, nitrogen mate
rails for fertilizer became scarce,
as we were once bound to Chile
for nitrates," said Mr.. Brand. "To-
day, we not only have adequate
shipping service from Chile, but
our country is the third largest pro-
Queer of synthetic nitrogen in the
world, and the largest producer of
ammonium sulphate. The shortage
of sulphuric acid during the last
war was due to the heavy require
ments of munition manufacturers
for processing their goods. I'M
proved methods of munition makers
no longer require sulphuric acid.
This leaves an adequate supply for
use in making superphosphate.
"In 1914 we were entirely de-
pendent upon Germany for potash.
Today, we produce at home over
so per cent of the potash we use
and have sufficient reserves to care
for our entire needs. In addition
to this, French, German, Palestin-
ian, and Spanish potash are avail
able"
Prices farmers pay for fertilizer
are now lower than before the
World War; prices they pay for all
commodities average 229o higher.

Expert Advises Against
Using Restaurant Lingo

John B. O'Meara, of Chicago,
an expert on the proper and i'm
proper manner of restaurant serv-
ice, has given walters and wait
resses tips on ways to get ahead in
their business. Some pointers:
If man orders milk toast the
waitress should not yell: "Stew for
q stiff"
Two poached eggs on toast should
not be called adam and Eve on a
raft nor should frankfurters and
sauerkraut be referred to as "dogs
in the grass"
Headwaiters should never employ
the old-fashioned trick of speeding
up service by shouting: Get a
move on, you soup jockeys"
Mattresses should not paint their
fngernails. It takes a customers
mind off his food. The advice is
repeated for wearing engagement
rings.
Both a spoon and fork should be
served with fruit cocktail, despite
Emily Posts approval Of the for
mer. because when customer pre-
fers to eat with fork he doesn't
want to be bothered with telling the
waiter about it.
The waiter or waitress should new
er place a napkin on the patrons
D. = g.
The worst blunder O'Meara re-
membered was committed by a
waitress who brought customer
a rare steak and remarked:
II don't see how you can eat that
stuff"

quake damages which could be

1T is determined that buildings

ages result when the vibrations of

Citrus Industry Threatened With
Heavy Penalties as wags" Hour Act
Compliance Drive Set fer January

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 6. (UP)-
In an address before the state
chamber of commerce yesterday
WagtS and Hours Administrator
Phillip B. Fleming warned that the
citrus industry is listed for strong
compliance drive" starting in Janu-
ary.
And I want to say that noncom-
pliance. if we find it, is going to
prove mighty expensive to the vio-
lator,' Colonel Fleming told the
agricultural section of the cham
ber's 18th annual statewide meet
ing
Charts showing clearly all citrus
exemptions from the wages and
hours act have been distributed
throughout the industry, he said,
and every employer by now under
stands exactly what is required OF
him.
There is no excuse for non
compliance. and violations will not
be tolerated.
Imperial Valley press., 1940-12-06

IF he (any citrus employeD has
failed to pay at least the minimum
wage and ime-anda- for over
time to any of his employees en-
titled to them, he is going to be
required to make restitution run
ming all the way back to Oct, 81,
1888, when the law became effect
i've.
And for wilful and flagrant vio-
lators, especially for those who have
falsified or destroyed their pay roll
and time records, the law provides
even more drastic penalties"
The administrator declared the
wages and hours law has aided the
farmer.
You will recall he said that
when the law was enacted, there
were those who predicted that the
effect would be to increase commo-
dity prices, to curtail sales, anG
decrease the farmers income. We
find no such effect, either in the
citrus fruit industry or in any other" F."

Seismologlsts expect a joT
earthquake in California"
These words startled Rotarians
Thursday noon at their weekday
Meeting when voiced by w. H
Gilmore, U. S. Coast and GeodetiC
survey representative and authority
on earthquakes.
However" he added. there is
no reason TO become panicky. This
expectancy is not in any way a
forecast but only theoretical at
titude which has generally per-
vaded the ranks of seismologists for
the past six or seven years.
1T is based on the fact that
there has been no major quake
since the San Francisco disaster OF
1905, all others in the interim be-
ng classified as minor quakes, or
at least not of major proportions.
Asked whether the Imperial Valley
quake of May, l8, 1910 was not
considered of major intensity, Gill
more explained that such defini-
lions are based upon many variable
factors.
THE Fl Centre quake was not
major, but was not minor, he ex-
planned. Largely We guage by pro-
portion of damage done with respect
to the total potential damage
Strangely enough, while the quake
was of major proportions in some
respects, it did not, for instance,
do major damage in FL Centre"
The recent quake, Gilmore ex-
planned, has ecome famous in
scientific history, because the seis-
mograph equipment located at e
Centre produced the most complete
record of any important quake since
expert study has started. Because
the equipment is located here he
