Wants Divorce and Land Accounting Anaheim Woman Asks For a Square Deal By Her Husband Eranna C. Guthrie, who resides near Anaheim, is seeking a divorce today from John F. Guthrie, rancher, and along with it she is seeking to get an accounting on property valued at $150,000, located in Orange and Los Angeles counties. During the last five years, she asserted, his income has been approximately $10,000, but out of that amount he has given her barely enough to enjoy a meager existence, she stated. By his own efforts Guthrie would be able to earn about three dollars a day, according to the complaint. But in 1919, she inherited a 10-acre orange ranch near Annelheim. Through his domineering attitude he forced her to assign him a one-half interest in the property, she asserted. Since that time he has kept most of the income, ranging from $6000 to $10,000, and has leased 280 acres of land on which he is raising vegetables, the complaint alleged. Mrs. Guthrie asked the court to restrain her husband from molesting her or her property. In a separate suit she demanded that her title to the orange grove be cleared. Attorney fees amounting to $10,000 were requested and alimony of $500 a month during the course of the legal proceedings. NEW REAL ESTATE FIRM Weston M. Smith and Lawrence P. Kraemer, real estate brokers of Yorba Linda and Placentia, are to be associated in the real estate business at 275 E. Center street, Anaheim, where they will open their office about July 1st. Mr. Kraemer is a son of Sam Kraemer, the pioneer citrus man of Placentia. Competitive Fruits In Valencia Market Outlook Summer Demand Good Both Oranges and Lemons A plentiful supply of competitive fruits has brought a change in the situation surrounding the present demand for oranges as compared to the condition that existed during the past three months. Until the first of June the markets generally had been short of all fruits except bananas, which have been in plentiful supply. Shifts of California and Florida orange and grapefruit for March, April and May were 75.6 per cent of last year and 78 per cent of 1926. The shortage of other fruits and the increasing recognition of citrus fruits on the part of the consumer created a demand in excess of the supply and resulted in a constantly advancing market. During the last few weeks consumers have had a wide range of fruits from which to make a selection. Cantaloupes, cherries, strawberries and plums are plentiful and at moderate or low prices. It is not strange that there should develop a temporary slow-up in the demand for oranges. The demand has been less brisk rather than the price being materially reduced. "The orange market of the past two months has been higher than had been anticipated," stated Dana C. King, Exchange orange sales manager. "The present condition is a settling down to normalcy, and prices for the balance of the season will be based upon the supply and its distribution. There is a feeling that the June lst estimates, while showing a decrease, are still too high, and that July estimates will show a further reduction. The crop is light in the section producing about one-half of the Valencia crop, out in the other districts the crop seems to be about normal." Based on the estimate and the anticipated movement for June, the percentional work cost weeks expected to skilled work truly.

Kraemer, real estate brokers of Yorba Linda and Placentia, are to be associated in the real estate business at 275 E. Center street, Anaheim, where they will open their office about July 1st. Mr. Kraemer is a son of Sam Kraemer, the pioneer citrus man of Placentia, and is well-known all over Orange county. He is capable of rendering expert advice on real estate values and handling of citrus groves. Mr. Smith has been engaged in the real estate business in Yorba Linda for the past six years and also as agent for Pennewell's Mineral Compost Messrs. Smith and Kraemer have been associated in the real estate business for the past year and are taking this move to enlarge their field of business activity and give them room to meet the needs of their growing business. They will act as Northern Orange County agents for "Pennewell's Mineral Compost" and other Mineral Fertilizers manufactured by the Pioneer Compost Co. of San Francisco. A general insurance business will also be conducted in connection with their real estate office. HOLIDAYS NECESSARY Dr. Charles H. Mayo, the noted Minnesota surgeon, declared that holidays are necessary to the prolongation of life and the attainment of the highest achievements. He especially commends the habit of English clerks and workmen who usually spend their week-ends in the country or at the seashore, where they enjoy surroundings entirely different from those in which their daily tasks are pursued. This change of activity and scenery is the best possible recreation to prevent becoming fagged out from one's work, says Dr. Mayo. There is no doubt that most persons fail to take advantage of their opportunities to get away from and forget for a time their regular occupations. The hustle and bustle of American town and city life are trying on both body and mind. Perhaps we could do more and better work if we would make it a practice to spend our holidays, week-ends and vacations as far away from shop and office as possible. 32,000,000 VOTE EXPECTED On the night of November 6th, by radio, telephone, telegraph and direct word of mouth the results of the baloting for President of the United States for the term beginning March 4, 1929, will be learned. It is expected that at least thirty-two million votes will be cast. Present indications are that there will be no appreciable support of any minor party. In earlier times, following the gradual grove be cleared. Attorney fees amounting to $10,000 were requested and alimony of $500 a month during the course of the legal proceedings. The present condition is a settling down to normalcy, and prices for the balance of the season will be based upon the supply and its distribution. There is a feeling that the June 1st estimates, while showing a decrease, are still too high, and that July estimates will show a further reduction. The crop is light in the section producing about one-half of the Valencia crop, but in the other districts the crop seems to be about normal." Based on the estimate and the anticipated movement for June, the percentage of the crop shipped as of July 1st will be 47 per cent, as compared with 47 per cent m 1927, and 43 per cent in 1926. There is every indication of an excellent demand for oranges continuing throughout the summer, provided orderly distribution of the crop is maintained, according to Mr. King. This will require holding at least the usual percentage of the crop until the fall months. It is estimated that the Georgia peach crop, which will begin to move about the 20th of June, is 15,000 cars or about 50 per cent greater than last year's crop. The local deciduous fruit crops generally over the country are much heavier than the very light crops of 1927. An increasing quantity of small sized fruit and below normal temperatures following the extremely strong and active lemon market of May and early June, has resulted in lower prices, especially on the class of fruit mentioned. The market continues in good shape on desirable sizes and quality and with normal weather a strong demand may be expected. The very strong lemon market of the past six months was due to increased demand and not to a shortage of supplies. Total supplies of California and foreign lemons for the season to June 1st are in line with the movement of the past five seasons. Increased importations have offset the shorter California supply. As an instance, the New York market took 626,531 boxes of lemons during the first half of the 1927-28 season, against 410,672 boxes during the same period in 1926-27, an increase of 34 per cent. "This increased consumption, we feel, is due at least in part to the gradual education of consumers—through advertising—to many uses of lemons," writes District Manager McDonald. Recent sales of foreign lemons have shown quite a loss to the importers. Poor condition and quality and heavy offerings brought a rapid decline in the market. The Italian summer lemon crop is reported 50 to 60 per cent below last year and heavy exports to this country should end this month. An extremely high American market, however, will still attract rift that would otherwise go into consumption in Europe or into by-products. SURPLUS AGE OF LABOR A surplus labor supply, partially in unskilled and building-trades groups, points in California although the de- 32,000,000 VOTE EXPECTED On the night of November 6th, by radio, telephone, telegraph and direct word of mouth the results of the balloting for President of the United States for the term beginning March 4, 1920, will be learned. It is expected that at least thirty-two million votes will be cast. Present indications are that there will be no appreciable support of any minor party. In earlier times, following the gradual development of the "convention system" of placing aspirants in nomination "third parties" were more frequent than in recent years, and more than once vitally and definitely ruined the candidacy of a major party nominee. Although there are today several "minor" parties, there is practically no possibility of any of them, now in the field, capturing a single electoral vote. Save for two notable instances of recent years, the formation of "third parties" of major proportions has not been frequent. With the vast increase of population, the tremendous costs for "organizing" and a myriad of "incidentals," political movements that can make themselves felt in an appreciable way in the electoral college cannot now be brought into being "over night," as it were. In all human probability, the public ear and the public eye will be set five months hence for gathering in the figures that will tell what the Republican vote and the Democratic vote is in this or that election district; and the vote for the nominees of the always also-ran parties will gradually find its way into the official records, there to please or discourage the men and the women who usually flock under minor parties' standards because they think they have a grievance. Much has been heard and no doubt much has been real already this year about the various drives to "get out the vote." The increase between the total vote of 1920 and that in 1924 was notable, and there is every reason to suppose that the spread between the total this year and that of four years ago will be even more impressive. The conventions this year hold the public interest, in many ways, to a degree equal to any that have ever been assembled, and excel in public attention most of the quadrennial gatherings that have contributed high lights to American politics. SURPLUS AGE OF LABOR A surplus labor supply, partially in unskilled and building-trades groups, exists in California, although the demand for outdoor workers increased toward the end of May and in early June, a report of the Pacific division of the United States department of labor said recently. Asparagus and pea packing plants operated during May and the opening of fruit canneries this month is expected to absorb additional workers, the report said. Fruit picking and grain harvesting activities were reported starting in some localities, while naying was under way, employing a large number of men. Lumber mills were found to be curtailing their forces and the metal mining industry was reported manned to capacity. Construction volume was said to be holding up well. Labor surplus in the San Francisco tailing their forces and the metal min-activity during late May and by the exodus of workers to agricultural sections and the Alaskan fisheries, but an excess of workers still exists according to the report. The survey said reduction of plant forces in the Los Angeles district continued during May and many men in all lines were unemployed. New building permits, however, will require 2000 workers for construction work. Surplus farm labor was reported in Los Angeles county. Agricultural and canning activities gave employment to many in the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys during May and additional work is expected this month, the report said. Around Fresno demand for farm labor exceeded the supply temporarily a small surplus existed in other lines. Industrial employment conditions were reported improved in the vicinity of Sacramento during May also a surplus of canning factory, railroad shop, and building labor existed.

It is an agrarian movement which is international in its scope. It is a liberal and pacific organization which has met especial favor in Poland, Jugoslavia, and Bulgaria. A bureau of federation of the organization is located at Prague. Groups are in process of formation in Austria, Rumania and Germany. Dr. Hoolza, Czecho-Slovakian minister of education, who is directing the agrarian parties, says of the purposes he is concerned: "We want to be positive not negative, constructive not destructive. We want to position of attack or defense against the foreigner. The nationalism of the agriculturist ought to be conciliatory. For eight years we have sought an element of collaboration between the peoples of Central Europe and to establish a stable equilibrium. I think I have found it in a person Coerney, which should bind us together." A few years ago optimists were carried away by the "youth movement" which, very strong in Germany, was organized all over the civilized world. We don't bear so much about it lately. Possibly it is because those who were youths at its inception, no longer very young, don't move on to leave place for the younger ones and the movement is no longer a "youth movement." But, in spite of the passing of the "youth movement" as a political factor, you still gather together and talk of ideals as they always have and probably always will. But they are no longer the predominating happy hope for diminishing national antagonism in Europe. Other elements, too, have international alliances as the laborers and the intellectuals. But the former are largely wrapped up in their own particular problems of industry, and the latter present a rather small minority in any country. Business Increase Expected From Meet National Paint Ass'n Holding Convention at Del Monte Business affiliations and increased production and sales for many Southern California manufacturers are expected to result from the meeting of East and West at the Western Zone convention of the National Paint, Oil and Varnish Association, to be held at Del Monte June 20, 21, and 22, according to F. M. Brininstool, president of the Brininstool Paint Company, Los Angeles. Pacific Coast paint men feel that closer relations with eastern and mid-sized, both for the solidifying of the industry and for mutual good to be derived from personal contact and from exchange of ideas, the executive, whose firm is Southern California representative for Barrelled Sunlight, declared Gradual invasion of the West by eastern and mid-western paint manufacturers; the sensational growth of the western industries makes Pacific Coast problems national problems and Pacific Coast business welfare national welfare. One of the features of the convention will be the presence of groups of employees of the Pacific Coast paint firms. These employees will consist principally of the "keymen" of the industry, cost accountants, factory managers, sales managers and department heads. Their presence will tie-in the entire industry and make the effects of the meeting felt throughout the year though actual heads of the firms attended alone. These "keymen" will have their own conferences on technical subjects, and their participation will mean cleaner competition and a better spirit of mutual co-operation and good fellowship through the industry, according to Brininstool, who is chairman of the committee in charge of entertainment.

LOS ANGELES AT CHESTNUT PHONES 884 AND 31 Anaheim, California Constipation! How to Keep Bowels Regular DR. W. B. CALDWELL AT THE AGE OF 63 To Dr. W. B. Caldwell, of Monticello, Ill., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed crucial that so many constipated men, women, children, and particularly old folks, had to be kept constantly "stirred up" and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and basty oils. While he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all headaches, billiousness, indigestion and stomach misery, he did not believe that a sickening "purge" or "physic" was necessary. In Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he discovered a laxative which helps to establish natural bowel "regularity" even for those chronically constipated.
