The S.Q.R. Store World Convention Of Poultrymen By W. M. CORY, Assistant Farm Advisor About forty countries of the world will participate in the Third World's Poultry Congress in Ottawa, the capital of the Dominion of Canada, July 27 to August 4. Dr. M. A. Jull, in charge of the poultry work in the bureau of animal industry, has official charge of the arrangements for the participation of the United States. Dr. Jull says that about 6000 delegates, exhibitors and visitors are expected to attend. He says that among other outstanding exhibits is one to be shown by the government of India, which is a replica of the ancient Egyptian incubators which have been used in the country for thousands of years. Practically all of the state colleges of agriculture will send poultry authorities and educational exhibits. Anyone interested in the poultry industry may attend. Further information pertaining to the program may be obtained at the farm advisor's office. According to the Americans who were there, Captain Lindbergh did not make a single mistake while in Paris. Nor did he make any while he was on route to Paris. That nickname Lindy must have been a Godsend to those song writers who were having a hard time to find enough words to rhyme with Lindbergh. New Tire FOR THE FOURTH FOR THE FOURTH WILL ADD TO YOUR ENJOYMENT Trade in Your Old Tires We have a mighty interesting proposition to make For Tires and Batteries for Less — See — WEST BROS AT THE SIGN OF THE BIG OWL — Los Angeles at Chestnut Anaheim First at Cypress Santa Ana Workers Warned of Electrical Hazards Telephone Company Constructs 18-foot Working Model An important problem that confronts telephone companies and the outside plant forces of other wire-using companies today is the elimination of electrical hazards occasioned by too intimate relations of wires carrying electric current for differing purposes. Contacts between telephone and power circuits constitute serious hazards to the linemen working on them, inconvenience to the subscriber because of the interruption of service, and are costly to the companies concerned because of plant damage. As a means of demonstrating these hazards and educating construction forces on how to avoid them, the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company has constructed an interesting 18-foot working model of telephone equipment involving open wire, aerial cables, underground construction, and substation and central office protective devices. All of these are approximately to scale. Power wires have been introduced into the model as well, and the vertical leads which supply current to miniature street lamps. Even bolts of lighting are made possible by the use of a high frequency coil, capable of transmitting a 12-inch spark. The working model has been used before employes of the telephone company, light and power, and electric railway companies to show the dangers in careless or faulty construction and how even power lines and telephone plant, which are carefully placed but not sufficiently widely separated, may be bridged by direct lightning hit, or even through electrostatic induction, as disastrously as though the wires had actually come in contact. Deputy Assessor Warns Personal Taxpayers LOCAL BREVITIES Suing for divorce on grounds of alleged desertion, Mrs. Ruth Harrison of Anaheim also demands $70 per month alimony from C. D. Harrison, and $230 dollinquent alimony due under an asserted agreement made between the couple some time ago. The Harrisons were married in Fullerton in 1916, separated in 1926. They have a son, aged 5. Attorneys McRadden and Holden represent the plaintiff. A petition for appointment as administrator of the estate of the late Josie Dahn, of Anaheim, was filed in superior court by her son, Frank Dahn, of South Gate. Frank Dahn, another son, Leon Dahn, of South Gate, and a daughter, Louise Strech, of Orange, are legal heirs to the estate, which is valued at $5532.25. Public Administrator Charles D. Brown has filed a petition for letters of administration over the estate of the late Sophia Korn, of Anaheim, who left property valued at $3000. Mrs. Marie L. Dwyer, Anaheim, was the daughter and sole legal heir of the deceased. James Silvas, 41r Anaheim rancher, was lodged in jail Saturday night on a charge filed by the state labor commission. He is alleged to have failed to pay the wages of all employee. He was arrested by Ed Marion, constable of the Anaheim township. The complaining witness in the case is H. Holquin, 25, who lives at Cypress. Holquin is asserted to have been employed by Silvas on a ranch near Cypress. The German Methodist Episcopal church of Anaheim has filed a petition in superior court for permission to sell a portion of its property for the purpose of meeting expenses incurred by impending improvements. The petition recites that about $800 will be needed to pay for ornamental cluster street lights and for repairs to church and parsonage. It is planned to sell 39½ feet of unused frontage on Broadway, near Clementine street, where the church is located. Orange County Not Severe on Motorists Traffic Officers Lenient in Comparison With Los Angeles. That Orange county traffic officers are not responsible for the asserted opinion of Los Angeles motorists that this county is "hard" on speeders, and that "Orange county is a good place to stay away from," is intimated in the comparison of the semi-annual reports of work accomplished by the squads of Los Angeles and Orange counties. The comparison was made by Floyd G. Yoder, state officer, who will turn his findings over to the chamber of commerce, it was said. The comparison reveals that the judges of Orange county deal out more severe sentences than in Los Angeles county, but that the arrests per officer is under that of the Los Angeles squad. From July 1, 1926, to January 1, 1927 (the latest figures available), there were 994 complaints issued in Los Angeles county against motorists. In this same period of time there were 1928 complaints issued here. The average arrest per man, per month gives the Los Angeles squad a figure of 44.9 and Orange county squad only 32.13, or a little more than one arrest each day. During the six months period, there were 88 persons sent to jail here for motor law violations, and in Los Angeles 268 persons were sent to jail in the same length of time. The per cent of violators arrested who were given jail terms in Orange county was 4.56, and in Los Angeles 2.98 per cent. Fines collected in this county during the six months period totalled $35,377. In Los Angeles the fines totaled $92,-397.50. The average fine per violation in Los Angeles county was $10.27 and in Orange county $18.35. Additional information compiled by Yoder shows that Los Angeles officers filed 18,944 complaints from July 1, 1925, to July 1, 1926, and collected in fines 218,057, that an additional $98,549 was assessed and suspended. In the same period, Orange county collected a total of $69,980.09 on $3725 complaints issued.

Deputy Assessor Warns Personal Taxpayers All owners of assessable personal property who have received notice from Harry Jayne, deputy assessor, to report at the city hall with tax notice are warned not to delay their payments. There remains but a few days in which to pay the personal property tax. The law allows the seizure of any taxable personal property when, in the judgment of the assessor, the owner is trying to evade payment of the tax. There are in Anaheim about 4000 autos and truck, according to the list furnished by the division of motor vehicles at Sacramento, about one-half of which are owned by persons who have no real estate. This means that the tax on at least one-half of all autos and trucks must be paid between March 1 and July 1, before the assessment roll closes.

Center St. 6-2-4 Two women face jail terms in the county bastile on speeding charges, when they come into Justice Kenneth Morrison's court Friday morning to answer to tickets given them on the road, records in the office of the Orange county state traffic office revealed. Mrs. Sally Schachner, 2910 West Eighth street, Los Angeles, was arrested on June 19, on the Irvine boulevard, charged with speeding 60 miles an hour, reckless driving and cutting in on another machine. She was arrested by Ole Buer, state traffic officer. Mrs. Glen E. Springs, 228 West Robinson street, San Diego, is scheduled to appear to answer to a charge of speeding 55 miles an hour on the Irvine boulevard. She was arrested by Walter Meyer, state traffic officer. Justice Kenneth Morrison usually gives out jail sentences to persons convicted of speeding 50 miles an hour or faster. Miss Dorothy Yungbluth entertained a number of her young friends at a delightful dinner party on Wednesday evening last at the home of her parents on West Broadway. Dinner was served at 6:30, after which the evening was passed with music and games. Those present were: Misses Martha Adams, Caroline Bode, Mary Beebe, Mable White, Ellen Gibbs, Norma Armbrust, Marion Utter, Marion Fotchman, Josephine Cook, Louise Schnelder, Elizabeth Parsons of Claremont, and the hostess, Miss Dorothy Yungbluth. A warrant was issued in Fullerton yesterday for the arrest of Albert E. Stuelke, former union high school teacher and prominent insurance broker, on a charge of keeping a dangerous animal. Action to bring Stuelke into court was taken after a German police dog, Rex, owned by Stuelke, is reported to have attacked Joseph Kelly, 4-year-old son of H. J. Kelly, foreman of the C. C. Chapman Packing Company at Fullerton. According to a complaint sworn out by Kelly, the child was playing in the street when the dog bit the boy's face. Stuelke, Kelly said, refused to do anything with the do, which is believed to have been suffering from rabies. A bitter court fight is in prospect, as the dog is said to be a valuable animal and prize winner. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Wethered and daughter, Katherine, who have spent the past two weeks on a trip to Yosemite, returned to their home in Anaheim the first of the week. The German Methodist Episcopal church of Anaheim has filed a petition in superior court for permission to sell a portion of its property for the purpose of meeting expenses incurred by impending improvements. The petition recites that about $800 will be needed to pay for ornamental cluster street lights and for repairs to church and parsonage. It is planned to sell 39½ feet of unused frontage on Broadway, near Clementine street, where the church is located. Yoder points out that fines are heavier here because of the heavy traffic to Tijuana during five months of the year, and that many of the arrests are made because drivers of cars are under the influence of liquor. It is generally agreed, he said, to reduce the charge in such cases to reckless driving, and many of the judges had agreed on fines of $250 in such cases, which has swelled the total amount of traffic fines. The county is troubled with a large number of persons who do not appear in answer to tickets written on the road, and many of these are given $100 fines, which also increases the total from year to year, he said. United States Has Many Millionaires More Than Two Hundred Paid Tax on Over a Million More Americans paid taxes on incomes of $1,000,000 and over for the calendar year of 1926 than ever before in the government's tax history, a treasury analysis shows. The millionaires' incomes totalled 297, compared with 75 in 1924 and 206 in 1916, the previous high mark. Seven persons, including two in Michigan and New York, respectively, and one each in Illinois, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania, filed returns showing incomes of $5,000,000 or over. Seventeen states proved the residences of the taxed millionaires together with one from District of Columbia. New York led with 96, while Pennsylvania was second with 28. Illinois and Massachusetts had 16 each. Michigan had 13, Ohio 8, California 6, New Jersey 5, Missouri 4, and Florida 3. Connecticut, Indiana, Maryland and Oklahoma had two apiece, while Iowa, Nebraska, and Wisconsin each were represented by one. The 1926 revenue act with its increased exemptions, lightening the burden of the income taxpayers, proved efficacious in producing more revenue, the report indicated. The number of returns filed for the incomes earned during the calendar year of 1925 and based upon the act's provisions, decreased 43.4 per cent compared to the preceding year, but a total Fullerton. According to a complaint sworn out by Kelly, the child was playing in the street when the dog bit the boy's face. Stuelke, Kelly said, refused to do anything with the do, which is believed to have been suffering from rabies.

Nelson; county president of the club federation, in honor of Mrs. Henry De Nyse, of Riverside, president of the Southern District California Federation of Women's Clubs.

California Fishers Reap Big Harvest More Than 159,000,000 Pounds Taken in Last 3 Months During the first three months of 1927, commercial fishermen operating in the Inland waterg and off the coast of California in the Pacific ocean caught and marketed 159,390,739 pounds of fish, according to the quarterly report compiled for publication in California Fish and Game for July by the department of commercial fisheries of the State Fish and Game Commission.

Los Angeles county was the banner producer of fish during the period covered in the report, with 92,645,635 pounds, and Monterey, where the catch was mostly sardines, rates second with 55,827,611 pounds. San Francisco county had 13, Ohio 8, California 6, New Jersey 5, Missouri 4, and Florida 3. Connecticut, Indiana, Maryland and Oklahoma had two apiece, while Iowa, Nebraska, and Wisconsin each were represented by one. The 1926 revenue act with its increased exemptions, lightening the burden of the income taxpayers, proved efficacious in producing more revenue. The report indicated. The number of returns filed for the incomes earned during the calendar year of 1925 and based upon the act's provisions, decreased 43.4 per cent compared to the preceding year, but a total tax collection of $734,555,183, an increase of $30,289,793, or of 4.3 per cent, was recorded. The proportion of the population filing returns was 3.6 per cent compared with 1924. The average net income of those filing returns was $5249, with an average tax of 3.85 per cent recording an increase of $1,767,900 in the income compared with 1924.

San Diego county gets fourth place with a total for the three months of 2,808,900 pounds, while none of the other counties where fish are taken commercially run into the million mark. During the period, 4,067,045 pounds of fish was brought into California for canning from Mexican waters, coming through San Pedro and San Diego, under the supervision of the commission. In the shell fish division, abalones totalled 307,168 pounds during the three months, while 232,292 pounds of shrimps were turned in by the fishermen. The shrimps were taken in Marin, San Francisco and San Mateo counties and the abalones in Monterey, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.
