Orange County Gets Many Prizes at Fair Makes Creditable Showing at Sacramento and Pomona A very creditable showing at the State Fair and at the Los Angeles County Fair this year was made by the Orange county exhibit, which was awarded first prize in its class at both shows. The origin and growth of the citrus industry of Orange county was the motif for the exhibit. A framework of oranges, trimmed in gristle fruit and lemons, enclosed a replica of Mission San Juan Capistrano as it looks today. The first citrus trees in Orange county were planted by the Franciscan Fathers of Mission San Juan Capistrano. Orange county in 1927 had the largest total acreage of citrus of any county in the state, 57,541 acres, consisting of 45,636 acres of bearing and 12,105 acres of non-bearing trees, and produced 7,527,209 boxes of citrus fruits valued at $28,394,661. The miniature of the Mission was done to a scale of one-half inch to the foot. The background showed the hills and mountains as they appear from the Mission site, the skyline being copied from a painting by Guston Borglam. The exhibit was covered with a canopy of flesta colors. The various products of the county were displayed in baskets such as were used by the Coast Indians of Mission days. In addition to the citrus feature display which was shown at both fairs, an exhibit of bees, honey and wax was shown at Pomona. The honey was arranged in pyramids with lights behind, and made a very attractive display which was awarded first prize in that class. At Sacramento, a register of visitors was kept, and the names of ninety-nine residents and former residents of Orange county were recorded. The two half-boxes of prize Valencia oranges were presented, one to President Coolidge and the other to Governor Young. The prizes won by Orange county at the State Fair consisting of 12 firsts, 10 seconds, and 7 thirds, included the following: Buena Park News The "Bally-Hoo Circus" put on by the Buena Park Masons, was unanimously voted a success by the large number present. Canvas tents, sawdust floors, clowns, peanut vendors, fat lady, bearded lady, wild man and snake charmer gave a true circus atmosphere. Thursday night the family and special friends of the local Masons were present, and Friday night the Masons from all over the county were present. A number from here attended the funeral of Mrs. A. K. Hay at Fullerton. Mrs. Hay was a former resident of Buena Park. John D. Prescott passed away Sunday evening after a lingering illness. The funeral was conducted Tuesday afternoon by Rev. B. Y. Neal, at the Hilgenfield and Rollins' Funeral Parlor, Anaheim. Mr. Prescott was a native of Alabama, and had lived many years in both Texas and Oklahoma. He was a devout Christian man and at the time of his illness was the teacher of the adult Bible class of the local Sunday school. He is survived by his wife and six children, only one daughter was able to be here, the others all living too far away. Buena Park Masons had charge of the funeral. The funeral of Dr. J. R. Schofield will be Friday, at McAulay and Suters. Fullerton. Dr. Schofield had been a resident of Buena Park, nearly 12 years and was an active civic worker, taking special interest in the Farm Bureau and serving that organization both as secretary and president as well as being one of the county officers. He was a member of Fullerton M. E. church and of the Buena Park Masons and the Long Beach Odd Fellows. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Lura Schofield, and two sons, Lester, of Buena Park, and the Rev. Charles Schofield, of Wyoming, and two daughters, Miss Mary Schofield, high school teacher, and Mrs. Cecil Tozler, concert singer. Dr. Schofield suffered a stroke of paralysis about two years ago and since then spent much of his time at the summer home at Corona del Rey. Mrs. Midge Dewey of Millsap, Texas, and Mrs. Alma Kirksay of Hermosa Beach called on Mrs. W. P. Strain Wednesday.

Credit Men to Hold Meet in Santa Ana Some 75 managers of Southern California branches of the California Association of Retail Credit bureaus will gather at St. Ann's inn October 13, for an all-day conference. It was announced by R. Earl Ruddy, secretary of the Business Men's association, who will be assisted in directing the affair by Mrs. L. G. Loescher, secretary of the Orange Credit association, and W. L. Currie, secretary of the Northern Orange County Credit association. The entire east wing of the inn will be at the disposal of the conference delegates, and the evening banquet and entertainment will be held in the main dining room. J. H. Van De Water, general manager of the Retail Merchants' association, Los Angeles, will deliver the evening address on "A Community..." Another caution To Auto Drivers The attention of motorists throughout California was called today by the Division of Motor vehicles to a section of the motor vehicle act prohibiting the use of any motor vehicle on the public highways, equipped with a muffler cut-out after January 1. 1929. This section not only prohibits the use of a muffler cut-out after that time on any except fire and police department vehicles, but also prohibits any person from driving a car equipped with a muffler cut-out that can be used. In stating the policy of the division officials said motorists would not actually be required to remove the cut-outs where any considerable expense was involved, but would be required to disconnect them so that it would not be possible to use them under any condition. Authority for the ruling, it was said is contained in Section 96. of the act. Practically all of the later models of automobiles are equipped without the muffler cut-out but many of the older models still in use on the highways have them. The legislature of 1925 banned their use after 1929 on the ground that they are noisy and serve no useful purpose on the motor. County Is Asked To Assist in Fair Will Participate in Diamond Jubilee Next Year Orange county will be asked officially to participate in California's Diamond Jubilee State Fair and Western States exhibition within a short time. It was indicated as plans moved forward for the Westside biggest show since 1915. This year's state fair was barely concluded when officials began a definite work toward the 75th annual exposition, August 31 to September 7. 1929. Ravavorable response has been heard from all parts of the state to the proposal of President R. A. Concee of the State Agricultural society, who wishes to include 11 western states in an All-Western jubilee. Success of this year's... an all-day conference, it was announced by R. Earl Ruddy, secretary of the Business Men's association, who will be assisted in directing the affair by Mrs. L. G. Loescher, secretary of the Orange Credit association, and W. L. Currie, secretary of the Northern Orange County Credit association. The entire east wing of the inn will be at the disposal of the conference delegates, and the evening banquet and entertainment will be held in the main dining room. J. H. Van De Water, general manager of the Retail Merchants' association, Los Angeles, will deliver the evening address on "A Community Credit Policy." The morning session will be devoted to the problems and policies of collection departments, with some of the ablest experts on collection in the state speaking. The afternoon session will be open to the public to come and go as they wish to hear the discussions they are interested in. The discussion of merchants' problems and association activities will be the order of the day, with the following topics scheduled for discussion: "Business Methods in Association Operation," C. O. Stiles, Pueblo, Colo.; Antecedent Information," A. V. Storer, Pomona Valley Merchants' Credit association; "Association Financing," F. W. Wallihan, Ontario Business Men's association; "Keeping Records of Hot Check Workers," W. F.

Orange county will be asked officially to participate in California's Diamond Jubilee State Fair and Western States exhibition within a short time, it was indicated as plans moved forward for the West's biggest show since 1915. This year's state fair was barely concluded when officials began definite work toward the 75th annual exposition, August 31 to September 7, 1929. Ravavorable response has been heard from all parts of the state to the proposal of President R. A. Concee of the State Agricultural society, who wishes to include 11 western states in an All-Western jubilee. Success of this year's fair, at which all attendance records were brokgen, gave impetus to the new plan. The State Fair Exhibitors' association will hold meetings in Los Angeles and Sacramento next month to unite upon a general theme of display. Fred H. Taylor, president, and A. E. Morgison, of Sacramento, secretary of the association, already have conferred with groups of county representatives. It was agreed unofficially to convert the huge horticultural pavilion into one anniversary exhibit, participated in by every county in the state. This display, according to present plans, will be of rich historical value, probably being so plotted as to give at once a unified and geographic picture of the birth and maturity of California. Representatives will be sent to call in person on officials of the other states and ask them to join, Condee said. A large portion of the fair grounds will be set aside for state shows. Not since the Panama-Pacific Exposition has there been such widespread approval of a plan of this kind, Condee asserted. "Every county, association and organization in California," he declared, "will be urged to co-operate in the movement for making the 75th California State Fair one of the greatest events of the kind in California's history."

A communication from the Union Oil company revealed that it was highly probable the oil company would sell a site on the hills north of Fullerton for a nominal sum. A campus of about 40 or more acres is desired by the board. In the communication, the company stated that the land could not be donated because there is a bonded indebtedness on it. The board of trustees will go over the site within a week or two and secure data relative to the desirability of the tract. Representatives of the Union Oil company will accompany the board members over the site. Other available sites are expected to be offered within the next week, several members announced at the meeting. One site, in particular, which is close to Fullerton, is expected to be offered, one of the members said. The trustees are endeavoring to have a site donated for the proposed school in order that more money can be spent on buildings and equipment. Practically all organizations in northern Orange county are behind a new junior college for the district. Many of the organizations have gone on record in the last few months as indorsing the proposed school and asking the school board to take action for such a school. Fire Still Rages In County’s Forests Many Men Are Drafted to Fight Disastrous Blaze Sportsmen Now Out After Ducks Birds Reported to Be Plentiful This Season Duck season opened Monday and from all indications hunting should be good. A scout car has been out looking over the likely places and reports more ducks in evidence than for several years. The Imperial valley and the Mecca districts are exceptionally well populated with ducks. Thousands were seen in both places. The San Diego county reservoirs also should be good at the opening, but most of the boat sare already engaged. The district west of Pond, north of Bakersfield, reports ducks by the thousands. This district, however, is controlled almost entirely by private owned clubs, there being only four clubs open to the public. Open duck shooting is almost a thing of the past in Southern California, and unless the hunter belongs to a duck club or patronizes a commercial club, the chances are not so good. Following is a list of commercial duck clubs in Southern California: Imperial Valley—Ed Finney's, Fred Raymer's, Calipatria; Alamo River Duck club, mouth of Alamo river; Calipatria Duck club, C. & M. Duck club, Mallard Slues; Salton Sea. Mecca—Mecca Duck club, Purdles Duck club, Nevins' Duck club, McGills ranch, Mecca. Mprena reservoir, Campo; Cuyamaca reservoir, Julian; Sweetwater reservoir, San Diego; Lower Otay reservoir, San Diego; Henshak, Santa Ysabel; Hodges reservoir, Escondido. Kern County—Gillbreath's Gun club, Wasco; Westfield Gun club, Savoy Gun club, Pond. San Bernardino County—Big Bear and Baldwin lakes. Deer shooting has been exceptionally good this season in the Southern Sierra; many deer have been brought out at Farview, Kernville, Mineral King, Cowan Station, Independence and Big Pine. Dove shooting was very good the first couple of weeks of the season, but... Fire Still Rages In County’s Forests Many Men Are Drafted to Fight Disastrous Blaze A new battle against flames sweeping through the San Bernardino mountains and destroying additional valuable watershed territory was waged today after strong northeast winds had whipped the fires into new fury. The wind drove the flames down Mill Creek toward the junction of Bear creek and the Santa Ana river, territory hitherto untouched by conflagration. Sweeping over a firebreak, the flames continued on their way and a new army of firefighters was called out to attempt to halt them. Fire broke out again on top of the ridge above Mountain Home canyon, early this morning following a period of anxiety. It was reported that the 50 or more cabins in that canyon, Camp Angelus, Glen Martin and other camps and resorts were safe. Forest Supervisor J. E. Elliott announced that fire which swept over 200 acres of watershed near Barrett dam in the San Diego county district is now under control. Investigation is under way to determine how the Romona-Witch creek fire, which burned over several thousand acres last week, was started. Z. Zulberti, a ranch employee, narrowly escaped death and scores of sheep were destroyed in a fire which has swept across Santa Cruz island, near Santa Barbara, during the last three days. With more than 150 Orange county men drafted to fight flames in the San Bernardino forest fire, which has destroyed watersheds valuable to this county, fire wardens believed no additional men from here would be needed, the sheriff’s office said. Fifty men were rushed to the scene of the fire in busses, and 100 or more were sent to San Bernardino Sunday afternoon. Although reports concerning the fire were meagre here, no new gains had been made by the flames, it was reported.

Kern County—Gilbreath’s Gun club, Wasco; Westfield Gun club, Savoy Gun club, Pond. San Bernardino County—Big Bear and Baldwin lakes. Deer shooting has been exceptionally good this season in the Southern Sierra; many deer have been brought out at Farview, Kernville, Mineral King, Cowan Station, Independence and Big Pine. Dove shooting was very good the first couple of weeks of the season, but the birds have moved south and about the only place where bags are being made is in the Imperial valley and Arizona. Quail season opens on December 1 and should be a banner year. Large coves of young birds are in evidence throughout the foothill and brush lands of Southern California. Morena reservoir has been furnishing good fishing and should continue so until the end of the season. Trout fishing in the Owens valley country is improving and should be good from now on to the end of the season. Arrowhead lake is always good in October. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dolan returned last week from an eastern trip, during which they visited Chicago and spent some time with Mrs. Dolan’s parents. Mr. and Mrs. I. M. Beardslee. Charles Montgomery of La Habra, died suddenly on Sunday of heart disease at his home on La Mirada avenue. Deceased was aged 69 years and leaves a widow, a daughter, Mrs. Gaston Bastanchury, and three sisters to mourn his loss. Funeral services were held on Tuesday and burial was made in Loma Vista cemetery. Frank Smith, aged 56 years, a resident of Corona and a native of Rochester. New ork, died in this city Monday night at 315 North Claudina street, where he came to spend the day and attend to business affairs. His death was sudden and unexpected although he had been in ill health for some time past. Deceased leaves a widow, formerly Miss Beatrice Smythe, a native of Anaheim, and other relatives in Rochester. Funeral services were held at St. Boniface Catholic church Thursday morning and burial was made in Loma Ista cemetery.

The oil company, which settled more than $300,000 in damage claims, connected with the same fire, out of court, is said to fear the effect of an adverse decision in the present case, as to the practicability of maintaining tank farms in settled communities. If safeguards necessary to absolutely prevent any chance of an oil overflow in case of a tank fire were required of the company, the cost would be prohibitive. It is said. It would be necessary to erect dykes sufficient to hold twenty times the volume of oil stored, because of the great expansion of oil when afire. The fire insurance company sued on insurance claims paid to W. E. Slevers and J. A. Lehmann, Brea property owners, whose dwellings and buildings, with their contents, were damaged by the 1926 fire. The oil company went to court in these cases, and contested the suit on the ground that the company was not responsible of negligence in the situation. Following a hearing of the evidence last week, the case was submitted to Superior Judge Homer C. Ames on briefs.
