Frank Davis ran across an item in the paper Tuesday stating that W. K. Wood, a Kansas farmer, had raised near Manhattan a bean that measured 34 inches in length and weighed 7½ pounds. Frank is well acquainted with Wood and declares his reputation for truth cannot be questioned. ENTIRE WALNUT CROP SOLD BY ASSOCIATION Orders Received for More Nuts than Can Be Delivered. The California Walnut Growers' Association has received orders for more walnuts than it can deliver. In less than two days after the new walnut prices were named, eastern buyers had sent wires into the association's office in Los Angeles for more walnust than the association had estimated than it could deliver this year. The association expects to handle not less than 46,000,000 pounds of walnuts this year. The association managers have had to decline orders for ninety-three carloads of walnuts, aggregating 40,000 bags weighing 100 pounds each. There is the possibility that the estimates of the size of the crop are under what the tonnage will turn out to be. If that should be true this year, the association has on hand orders to cover all possible tonnage over the estimated output. The report of the situation as given by the association office is good news to Orange county walnut growers, for it means that association members are going to get their money early in the season. It is believed now that this year the association will wind up the season's business earlier than ever before. C. Therpe, general manager of the association, says the present favorable condition of business is due largely to the tremendous demand for California walnuts. He expressed the belief that the heavy demand for association products this year is largely a result of the high standard which has been set in past years.

He states however, that the soil of Kansas must be wearing out because, a bean the size Wood boasts of raising would have been so ordinary that it was not considered worth mentioning in print.

The examination will be in charge of Forest Ranger J. B. Stephenson of El Toro, who will act for Forest Supervisor Tillotson, who is away on business in the northern part of the State. C. Thorpe, general manager of the association, says the present favorable condition of business is due largely to the tremendous demand for California walnuts. He expressed the belief that the heavy demand for association products this year is largely a result of the high standard which has been set in past years. The California walnut crop, worth from $12,000,000 to $15,000,000, is being snapped up, despite heavier importations from Europe than have arrived since 1915. Mr. Thorpe accounts for this by the statement that California walnuts are a much better buy at prevailing prices than imported walnuts. The harvest of this year's crop is proceeding with remarkable speed. Copious showers during the last few days of September loosened the walnuts and caused them to begin falling rapidly. Ranchers appear to be able to get plenty of help, and the walnuts are rolling into twenty-six association packing houses so rapidly as to almost swamp them. It is the belief of Thorpe that approximately 85 per cent of the crop can be included in the first pool, which closes November 15.

The suit of Albert Zimmermann against J. S. Ellis, in which Zimmermann is asking $5000 for damages received in a smash-up, is being heard in Superior Court this week. The accident occurred on the Garden Grove road in December last. Zimmermann was riding a bicycle, and he maintains that Ellis ran into him with his car, causing severe injuries to his head.

Among the residences being built in Anaheim at present is one by Harry Spielman on Broadway, costing $4500 and another by Richard Krastel on South Los Angeles street, to cost $3000. At a recent meeting of the stockholders of the Golden State Bank, William Stark was elected director to fill the vacancy caused by the death of J. B. Rea. The old officers were re-elected. The bank, owing to enlarged business during the past year, finds it expedient to increase its capital stock, and was recently granted permission to raise it from $50,000 to $100,000. Personal Mention Capt. Vic Schumacher was in town Tuesday meeting many old time friends. Dr. Clarence Beebe and wife of Los Angeles were visiting friends in this city Sunday. H. D.

He telegraphed Judge Howard at Santa Cruz, advising him of the child's arrival, and asking the judge's advice relative to naming the boy after the President. The judge has not yet replied. We believe he has beat it to the hills. A local post of the American Legion will be organized at Anaheim Board of Trade clubrooms on Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock sharp. Oct. 21st. Capt. Walter Brinkop, who was captain of the machine company, 364 Reg., will deliver an address. Capt.

Every service man should attend. At a school district meeting held at Fremont school Monday night, the board was instructed to purchase Mrs. Paula McAdoo's property adjoining the Fremont grounds for a new building site. The lot has a frontage of 196 feet on Citron, and a depth of 210 feet, the price being $6000. The board was also authorized to purchase a portion of Mrs. J. H. Enearl's property. The trustees are now advertising for bids for the proposed new buildings. Dr. Mason Wylie Pressby of the Western State Agricultural Development Committee, spoke to the board of trade Monday on the question of land and labor values. Charles Gore, organizer for the committee, also spoke on the necessity for increased labor in this country in order that America might produce sufficient foodstuffs to feed the world. At a recent meeting of the stockholders of the Golden State Bank, William Stark was elected director to fill the vacancy caused by the death of J. B. Rea. The old officers were re-elected. The bank, owing to enlarged business during the past year, finds it expedient to increase its capital stock, and was recently granted permission to raise it from $50,000 to $100,000. Joseph Sanchez died at his home in Yorba Sunday at the age of 64. He had been a resident of this county 34 years, having formerly lived at Anaheim. On hundred loaves of bread, confiscated Monday by County Sealer Geo. McPhee, were apportioned to the Detention Home and the Day Nursery. The bread was taken from one of the delivery automobiles operated by the Bradford Baking Company of Los Angeles. According to McPhee, the loaves did not come up to the weight required by law. The Bradford Baking Company recently paid a fine of $25 in the justice court for offering short weight bread for sale in this county. The Heffern sandwash well has been standing idle for a couple of weeks, having been cemented, but drilling will be resumed in a day or two. It is said that within two weeks it will be known whether the hole is a gusher or a disappointment. The owners of the well have great expectations. Mrs. C. F.

BIG HALLOWE'EN DANCE BY SEAL BEACH C. OF C. Both far and near the Seal Beach Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Davis and two little daughters of Rye, Colorado, are the guests of Gene Adams and family and expect to remain for the winter if they can find a house to rent. Mrs. Frank Machlieb who has been spending a month in Arizona visiting her son and daughter, returned home the first of the week. She was accompanied by her grandson, Roland Golter. C. E. Holcomb has sold half of his Fullerton grove to W. J. Smith. Mr. Holcomb has purchased a residence at Fullerton, and he and his family will take up their residence there. The Holcomb orchard is one of the finest orchards in Orange county. Miss Mabel Wahlberg whose marriage in the near future to Lou Winney was announced a couple of weeks ago, was given a kitchen shower at the home of Miss Catharine Dresser recently. A number of friends were present and the bride-to-be was the recipient of many useful presents. Louis Denni was in town on Tuesday from Signal Hill, transacting business and meeting his numerous friends in town. Mr. Denni is one of the pioneer farmers of the West country, but has retired from active pursuits, and is spending his time quietly with his family at Signal Hill. He is a shrewd observer of current political events, and leans to the opinion that if the United States will quietly mind it's own affairs and will refrain from interfering with those of other nations there will be peace and prosperous times ahead for Uncle Sam. We believe he has a level head upon this matter, and we quite agree with him. It is indeed a pleasure to meet with Mr. Denni, and we hope to see him many times in town. DR. BALL ENDORSED FOR G. O. P. DELEGATE Santa Ana Man Will Represent This District at National Republican Convention. Dr. Mason Wylie Pressby of the Western State Agricultural Development Committee, spoke to the board of trade Monday on the question of land and labor values. Charles Gore, organizer for the committee, also spoke on the necessity for increased labor in this country in order that America might produce sufficient foodstuffs to feed the world. A well-defined report that local deputy-sheriffs would be patrolling the roads in the duck club district of western Orange county, will doubtless discourage a great number who in past years always "opened the season" on the club members' bounty, so to speak, taking a very considerable toll of the fowl which flew from one preserve across the road to another, but beach resort keepers report that they were reserved completely out of boats in advance. Many hope to dig out a good mess of birds in the general confusion of duckdom that always is a feature of the truly terrific bombardment visited upon these callow young sprig.

Both far and near the Seal Beach Chamber of Commerce is favorably known for the magnificence of the dances it gives. The annual Snowball dance, given in the spring of the year, is a fixed institution in the minds of the people, and those who were present at the Hallowe’en dance two years ago remember it with pleasure. It was planned to make the Hallowe’en dance an annual event, and considerable preparation was made for it last year, but the epidemic o influenza prevented the dance being given. The 1919 Hallowe’en dance on Friday night, October 31, will be the biggest and best event of the kind ever given in Southern California. Lavish decorations in the Hallowe’en motif are being placed in the mammoth dancing pavilion and these will be augmented with a battery of the famous Seal Beach scintillators. A special stage setting is being arranged by James Graham, president of the Chamber of Commerce, who is nationally known as a scenic artist. Committees are working hard to make the event a success and they invite all Southern California to attend. It will be the jazziest kind of a jazz night—one that will be remembered for its pleasures as long as life lasts. DR. BALL ENDORSED FOR G. O. P. DELEGATE Santa Ana Man Will Represent This District at National Republican Convention. At an informal gathering of committees from the Republican County Central committees of Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties in Riverside Friday night, endorsement was given to the candidacy of Dr. C. D. Ball of Santa Ana as a delegate from California to the National Republican convention in 1920. This endorsement was given unanimously. The reason for taking early action in the matter was that advice to the effect that early action was desirable had been received from the Mention A Revelation of Exceptional Comfort Qualities ATHENA UNDERWEAR FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN ATHENA Underwear is tailored to fit the natural contour of the body, comfortably. It affords the correct foundation for the cor- set and fine gown. Note the striking contrast between Athena Underwear and ordinary underwear, as shown in the illustrations. Falkenstein's headquarters of the Republican State Central Committee. Dr. Ball has long been active in Southern California politics. His endorsement is an evidence of the fact that unity reigns in the ranks of the Republicans in this part of the state. The general plan of selecting delegates has always been for the making of nominations through the state central committee, the names of the nominees afterward appearing on the ballot at the presidential primaries as representing a party platform. Four delegates at large are chosen in the state and two from each congressional district. It has been announced at San Diego that Ed Fletcher of that city is to seek nomination as a delegate, and present prospects are that he and Dr. Ball will be the two delegates from this congressional district. Fletcher's candidacy was announced recently, and the committees from the northern part of the congressional district concluded to get together and make an endorsement so that the other delegate might be from this part of the district. Two alternates are also to be elected. No action concerning them has been taken. At the meeting at Riverside, the general opinion expressed by the Republicans present was that there is every reason to look for a Republican landslide next year. Judge Goodcell of San Bernardino county said that he had just recently returned from a convention in the east, and that while ter, head of the company through which the government purchased Oriental beans, "had received special favors" while H. P. Kimball was head of the Grain Corporation, in charge of the purchases. He said Kutter had loaned Kimball $40,000, adding: "We are not saying that it had any extraordinary significance." About one-half of the 1,250,000 bags of foreign beans bought by the government were purchased through Kuttner's company, the Western Import Company, Sapiro said, adding that Kuttner received orders so far ahead he could buy on an advantageous market. F. A. Lord, representing the Michigan Bean Growers, said Kimball had been removed by Herbert Hoover, then Food Administrator, when the matter was called to his attention, and that a record of the investigation of bean purchases had been turned over to the Justice Department. Mr. Sapiro urged a tariff of 4 cents a pound on Oriental beans, asserting this amount was necessary to place the American product on the same market level in this country. "Without the tariff, the American bean industry will disappear," said he. Michigan and New York bean growers also urged the 4-cents-a-pound tariff as necessary to prevent the extermination of the American bean industry. Nathan Simpson, president of a Michigan farmers' organization, and S. L. Stridings, president of the New York State Federation of Farm Bu- DEMANDING PROTECTION FOR AMERICAN BEANS Industry is Doomed Unless Tariff is Placed on Foreign Product. Renewing charges of discrimination against American bean growers in 1918, Aaron Sapiro of San Francisco, counsel for the California Bean Growers' Association, told the House Ways and Means Committee that A. B. KutTwo alternates are also to be elected. No action concerning them has been taken. At the meeting at Riverside, the general opinion expressed by the Republicans present was that there is every reason to look for a Republican landslide next year. Judge Goodcell of San Bernardino county said that he had just recently returned from a convention in the east, and that while away he did not meet a single Democrat who expected a Democratic president to be elected next year. An embargo during the war prevented New York growers from selling the kidney bean in its normal market—the West Indies," declared Mr. Stridings. "We lost that trade and Japan took it, has it now and probably will keep it." Edward R. Bence, Deputy U.S. Revenue Collector of Los Angeles, was in town on Thursday on business connected with his office.
