A brush fire convinced officials that the Topanga Canyon site was too dangerous and the project was moved to the White Oak Farm site. Jones said the completed farm will illustrate three "farming eras in California.

"The first era would cover the Spanish ranching period," he said. "We have an old adobe house on the property that would be restored. The second era will be semi-modern, from about the 1920s to the 1950s. That would be the majn part of the farm. We'd have typical farm animals a dairy operation where the kids could go and actually milk the cows and make butter, maybe some sheep and, of course, lots of chickens.

"We even envision a working blacksmith shop on the property," the, ranger said enthusiastically. The third section of the farm would acquaint visitors with urban farming things a typical Los Angeles resident can do with a backyard garden, for example, Jones said. Jones expects much of the help needed to run the farm to come from local 4-H Club volunteers, from agricultural students at Pierce College in nearby Woodland Hills and from nearby residents. There Are Mixed Emotions' "This place could be self-supporting," Jones said. "We plan to set up a produce stand up on the road (Las Virgenes Road) and sell all the surplus.

We couldn't get into selling milk because of all the health regulations, but we could sell produce, fruit and eggs." Jones said he won't mind when his family's now -quiet life suddenly becomes public property. "There are, of course, mixed emotions," Jones said, "but we are all excited to be the farmers here again. We'll want a bit of privacy, so the place will be closed a couple of days a week." His wife, Jan, said she does not believe her family's life will be on display. "I'm just excited that these inner-city kids will be able to see that it's like in the country," she said, "that there is something else other than the city."

Women's Shoes 457 sale 21.99 were $35 By DAVID FRENZNICK, Times Staff Writer With a gun at his side and a pair of handcuffs tucked neatly into a leather holder attached to his belt, Ron Jones does not look like a farmer.

But he dreams about the day when he will be able to put his park ranger uniform aside and don a pair of overalls. Jones' dream could become reality soon. If all goes well, Jones said, the state-owned 100-year-old White Oak Farm in Calabasas, where Jones and his family live, will become the first state-run farm, a place where adults and children can observe and participate in the agricultural life of a farm family. The California State Park Foundation, a nonprofit group that raises money for park land, selected White Oak Farm as its priority project for Southern California. The group recently began raising the estimated needed to restore the ranch to a 1920s-era working farm, complete with animals, barns, corrals, old tractors and plows.

The foundation has been seeking donations from individuals and businesses and recently sponsored a get-acquainted "Day on the Farm," featuring actor Buddy Eb-sen. The Atlantic Richfield Co. donated fruit trees to help start an orchard section and plans to make a more substantial donation soon, a company official said. Jones, 36, has lived on the property, part of Malibu Creek State park, since 1978. In his job as park ranger, he patrols the park, sometimes on horseback.

But Jones, his wife Jan and thetflwo children, Matt, 10, and Cindy, 13, are prepared to become the "farm family" as soon as the project is completed. That means they will live and dress the part, Jones said. 'We Will Raise Our Own Food' "We should be pretty much self-sufficient here," he said. "We will raise our own food, grind our own wheat, and we might even spin the cloth for our clothes. This has been my dream for a long time now." The farm, which could be ready by 1984, probably would be open only for schoolchildren the first year.

Jones envisions a "hands on" experience for the children. "Most school kids will only see animals in a petting zoo or in a book," Jones said. "Here they will actually become part of the farm crew. They will be able to work in the vegetable garden, shear sheep, help with the weaving, work with the animals or pick fruit in the orchard." The 1,000 acre farm, shaded by giant valley oak trees and cooled by a coastal breeze, was acquired by the state in 1975 from comedian Bob Hope and became part of Malibu State Park, along with the nearby Century Ranch in Agoura and a ranch owned by President Reagan. The three parcels making up the park encompass 6,000 acres.
