NOTES FROM THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 



By Geo. P. W^eldon,, Chief Deputy State Commissioner of Horticulture. 



Imperial County. 



Mr. F. W. Waite has been appointed Horticultural Commissioner for 

 Imperial County to succeed Mr. W. E. Wilsie, who resently resigned. 



Humboldt County. 



Humboldt County's resources were splendidly advertised by County 

 Horticultural Commissioner George Weatherby at the California Apple 

 Show recently held at Watsonville. Mr. Weatherby is alive to the 

 opportunities as well as the needs of his county, and is to be commended 

 for the splendid display of products that was made. 



Santa Barbara County. 



In authorizing County Horticultural Commissioner C. "W. Beers to 

 purchase a good power sprayer to use in his work, the board of super- 

 visors of Santa Barbara County are setting a good example for other 

 counties, whose commissioners have no facility for spraying, to follow. 

 Lack of equipment is a serious handicap in field work, and nothing can 

 be put to more practical use than a good spray outfit. 



Messrs. Marchbank, Sehulz, Schell, Morris, Sharp and Stabler repre- 

 sented their respective counties at the State Nurserymen's Convention 

 held in Fresno recently. The three first mentioned took part in the 

 program.
