Get $260,000 From DeFaulting Gas ARTIFICIAL HEAT
. Dealers.
Due to an intensive drive which the
gasoline bureau of the auditor gener-
al’s department is making against de-
faulting gasoline station owners, col-
lection of delinquent taxes is expect-
ed to exceed $260,000 for the past two
months, General Edward Martin, said
today.
Immediately after the appointment
of C. E. Carothers to head the bureau
the movement to collect gasoline tax-
es retained by dishonest dealers was
started. Keeping a close check on
frequent changes in ownership of the
stations and starting legal action im-
mediately when other methods fail
has made the present collection rate
possible, Carothers said.

Fishing License to Cost More.
Fishing licenses will cost the pur-
chaser fifty cents more this year than
in previous years. The extra 50 cents
will be used to restock streams, it is
claimed.
Anglers, who have so far procured
licenses have not complained of pay-
ing the increase and think the idea a
good one, as the streams, especially
in this locality, need restocking.
The fee is now $1.60 for resident
licenses. Non-resident fishing license
fee is reciprocal, but in no instance 1s
the fee to be less than $2.50.

SAVES ORCHARDS.
The weather bureau’s frost fore-
casting service in the Pacific coast
fruit belt, which enables orchardists
to light their oil heaters and save
their crops, is being extended to
“smoke” forecasting for the benefit
of nearby cities.
With the demonstration in recent
years of the amazing accuracy of the
frost forecasting service, which is
maintained jointly by the weather
bureau and the orchardists, confidence
in the artificial heating of orchards
has grown until now it is utilized on
a tremendous scale. .
In the citrus industries alone, which
brings California $100,000,000 a year,
2,500,000 oil heaters are used to pro-
tect about 50,000 acres of orange and
lemon trees. Although these heaters
have been greatly improved in the
last few years, they give off clouds
of soot which, drifting into cities,
cause anguish to housewives and
financial loss to merchants.
Although thousands of suggestions
have been made and numerous pat-
ents obtained, the records in the of-
fice of J. B. Kincer, chief of the di-
vision of agricultural meteorology of
the weather bureau, show no satis-
factory substitute for the oil heaters.
So the new smoke forecasting service
has been undertaken to make the best
of What appears to be a necessary
evil.
The frost and smoke forecasts are
issued late in the day whenever dan-
gerous temperatures are indicated
and are distributed by telephone and
radio in ample time to permit the or-
chardists to light their heaters.
Eight experts are employed in this
forecasting, under the direction of F.
D. Young, the meteorologist who be-
gan it single handed. They base their
calculations on study of the regular
daily weather map in conjunction with
a hygrometric formula which takes
into consideration local humidity and
temperature conditions.
In one season, during which he is-
sued 96 forecasts, Young has been
within two degrees of accuracy 94
per cent of the time. Many of his
warnings predicted low temperatures
in terms of fractions—271 degrees,
for instance—and 68 of the 96 were
precisely accurate, while 15 others
were less than one degree away from
the actual point at which the mercury
stopped descending in the thermomet-
er. His largest error in that year
was five degrees, and that is one in-
cident in his life which he finds it
hard to forget.
Most of the cold snaps which
threaten the California fruit crop de-
velop when an area of low pressure
moves out of Arizona or southern
California and an era of high pres-
sure from Nevada swings in. The
frost forecasters remain in this re-
gion until the danger passes in Feb-
ruary, and then they move north into
the deciduous fruit section of Wash-
inton and Oregon.
85 Per Cent of Criminals Use Auto-
mobiles to Carry on Crime.
That the automobile is a prime ne-
cessity in a life of crime was reveal~d
in an examination of prison records
recently, in California.
More than 85 per cent of the 4,000
inmates of San Quetin used an auto-
mobile to assist them in committing
the offenses for which they are im-
prisoned, “histories” on file there
show.
Highwaymen head the list. Almost
without exception they used automo-
biles for the holdup and quick get-
away.
Check passers find automobiles es-
sential to the “profession.” The op-
en highway beckons to all “paper
hangers” after cleaning un a town.
Burglary records show that in al-
most every case the loot was recov-
ered in automobiles.
Few prisoners were captured on
trains or used them as a means of
escape. Some arrests occurred on de-
barkation from steamers. But rec-
ords show invariably the automobile
was turned to as a means of escape.
Long Distance Drive is Error of
Many Golfers.
The worst peril to the average
golfer is the temptation of distance.
He feels that he must hit the ball
hard to make it travel—and the result
is often that he loses the rhythm of
his stroke.
Co-ordinating power with the
rhythm, says the American Golfer, is
the trick that one must learn to
achieve maximum driving. Correct
form is essential. But the emphasis
on distance, even so, is often over-
stressed.
The outstanding difference between
the good amateur and the profession-
al, says Vivien Doran, author of the
article, is that the professional’s con-
sistency from the tee offsets the ama-
teur’s frequent superiority on the
green. The reason for this is simply
that the money player doesn’t take his
tee shot too seriously. He knows the
distance he can make, and what little
advantage his opponent may have in
that department he will attempt to
offset by more careful approach shots.
Alaska Seeks Patrol Like Canadian
Police.
Agitation for a patrol system like
that of the Canadian mounted police
has grown out of the recent disap-
pearance of two old-time prospectors.
Kris Kline, one of the missing men,
was traced to a crevasse across the
glacier trail. The other, Mike Trap-
ke, disappeared while journeying
from Talkeetna to Susitna, a distance
of 60 miles. Both are believed to have
perished.
It developed that regulations do not
permit a marshal or deputy marshal
to leave the beaten highways to in-
vestigate alleged crime or to give aid
to men in distress, unless so ordered
by the district court and by it provid-
ed with funds to defray expenses.
A force patterned after the Cana-
dian organization, it is pointed out,
would find much useful service to per-
form in this territory, searching out
lost men and running down fugitives.
