Dormant Season Said to' Increase Production of Plants. ‘Trees, like human beings, should be allowed to have a vacation occasionally, according to George P. Weldon, Chaffey Union H’(h School pomologist. South- ern California’s climate is too good for & number of varieties of peaches, apri- cots and apples, and if something hap- ns to prevent the trees bearing fru‘t for one season they show renewed life and greater production the next season, according to Prof. Weldon. This “vacation” for the tree may be occasioned by a severe Winter, which would cause the tree to lie dormant. Ethiopia is developing its schools along American lines. ‘4 Sale Ends Wednesday Night Mrs. Gann Receiving At Bachelors' Cotillion Chaperones for the first Washington Bachelors' Cotillion of 1929-30, to be given on December 9 in the grand ball room and Chinese room of the May- flower, include Mrs. Gibson Fahnestock, Mrs, Thomas W.
