Oil Companies Getting New Leases Territory Southesat of Anaheim Being Signed Up Renewed activity in oil leasing is reported to have been in progress north of Orange during the past week. Included in the land leased during the past few days is that owned by Jacob Bargsten, two and three-fourths miles northwest of the city. Preparations are under way to erect the first derrick on the Bargsten place, it is said. The new field which it is expected will be developed is located south of the well drilled by the Standard Oil company a few years ago. The recent reports of geologists who have been surveying the field are said to verify the belief of an oil sold in this location. Blue Monday Bad Day For Motorists Numerous Accidents That Day Because of Hang-Overs By Drivers "Blue Monday," the term applied generally to the week-end vacationist's indigo-hued attitude toward life in general on Monday morning, was given a new significance today by the statistical department of the Division of Motor Vehicles. Records compiled by the statisticians for a three-month period indicated that almost as many traffic smash-ups of a fatal or near fatal nature occur on Monday as occur on Saturday or Sunday, despite the fact that travel is always heaviest on the two last mentioned days. The three-month compilation reveals 1,050 accidents involving death or injury occurred on Monday, actually exceeding Saturday with 1,005, and only exceeded slightly by Sunday with 1,057. Week-end "flag" from motor trips, loss of sleep and "hang-overs" from Sunday night parties and hurry to get back to work are among the causes blamed by the division's officials for "blue Monday's" toll of accidents. Incidentally, the division offers the record as another reason why motorists should be doubly cautious on "blue Monday." Watch your driving on Monday. There is less traffic probably, but more accidents. Hundreds of persons stay at week-end resorts until early Monday morning and then make a mad dash to get back to work. Many others are worn out by long week-end trips and are not as trustworthy at the wheel as under ordinary conditions. Such was the warning of Frank G. Snook, the division's chief. "It is a common fault of California motorists to attempt trips that are entirely too long for the week-end." Snook continued. "They wear themselves out and break the speed laws to get to their destination and then are compelled to drive furiously to get back to work. The beneficial effect of the trip from the health standpoint is lost and the traffic hazard is increased."

Included in the land leased during the past few days is that owned by Jacob Bargsten, two and three-fourths miles northwest of the city. Preparations are under way to erect the first derrick on the Bargsten place, it is said. The new field which it is expected will be developed is located south of the well drilled by the Standard Oil company a few years ago. The recent reports of geologists who have been surveying the field are said to verify the belief of an oil field in this locality. Surveys of the field have been made at various times since 1920. A number of ranchers in the vicinity are said to have signed leases during the past week. Caldwell and Reynolds, oil men who were conducting lease operations in the field eight months ago, are in charge of the leasing now being done. It is said the men, who are from the Brea-Whittler district, are working with an oil company of Los Angeles. Other leases are said to have been signed by J. A. Porter, who owns a 20-acre ranch on East Taft, and F. S. Christian on East Vista. The territory lies north and north-west of Orange. Signing of the required number of leases is expected to be finished in about a week. The leases are said to call for drilling operations to begin a short time after the last signature has been secured. It was announced at a recent automobile show that the hand which once rocked the cradle now drives the family car. But father still continues to pay for the gas. Another Shipper Joins the Exchange London Agent Reports Increasing Sales of Sunkist in Europe The Highland Orchards, which was the big Cleghorn Bros. packing plant at Highland, packing and shipping 1,000 or more carloads of oranges annually. Is now marketing through the California Fruit Growers' Exchange. Announcement has just been made that this shipper has affiliated with the Redlands-Highlands Fruit Exchange. This Sunkist district exchange now having 15 associations who will ship around 5,500 carloads of citrus fruit this season. The new Sunkist unit will continue under the ownership and management of Fred Leuschen. The Cleghorn house has long been one of the biggest and best known non-exchange shippers and represents a substantial increase in exchange shipments from the tdistrict. S. B. Moomaw, head of the "Moomaw Service," London, England, who has represented the California Fruit Growers' Exchange as European sales agent for a number of years, recently left Los Angeles after an extended conference with exchange executives concerning future Sunkist business in the European markets. Mr. Moomaw reported that the Sunkist brand is now known in hundreds of markets in the United Kingdom and on the continent and that its popularity is constantly growing. During the past few weeks, more than 27,000 boxes of Sunkist navels have been exported to Europe from New York. In addition to this volume sent by the exchange, New York exporting firms have also done some business on Sunkist fruit. The New York market benefitted by this new outlet during a period of heavy supplies. INDIAN KNEW HIS TOBACCO It is said that the Indians who grew tobacco in this country long before the arrival of Europeans, felled trees and burned them to obtain ashes for their tobacco patches. The value of this practice has been confirmed. Modern knowledge shows that tobacco needs plenty of potash in the fertilizer and that without it the leaves develop potash "hunger," lose their normal green color and deteriorate in quality. More potash than is now generally used would give more profitable returns, says the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The quantity depends, of course, on the soil, system of cropping, and other factors, but a minimum of 40 to 60 pounds an acre should be used on mos tlight tobacco lands. The trouble with the man with an axe to grind, is that he always wants somebody else to turn the grindstone. GILFILLAN RADIO MODEL 44 The matchles stone of this radio is paramount to any other feature. Wider tone range is Gilfillan's claim—bringing more over-tones into the reproduction, and that MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE! One dial tuning—7 tubes—operated by AC house current. Sensitive volume control from faintest note to military band fanfare. The steel mounted chassis is hand-built (described elsewhere). There is a pick-up jack for the playing of phonograph records. A genius designed the handsome highboy. Its proportions, design and finish make it a perfect art piece of exquisite burled black walnut. It is one of the season's greatest masterpieces.

Magnificent Burled Walnut Cabinets Christian Science Church Paul's words to the Romans, "To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace," serve as the Golden Text in the Christian Science lesson-sermon on "Matter" Sunday, in all branches of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The lesson-sermon consists of various selections from the Bible and from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." by Mary Baker Eddy. These citations, which will be read to the congregations, include the specific teaching of Christ Jesus from John vi: "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life," and Mrs. Eddy's declaration from the chapter on prayer "entirely separate from the belief and dream of material living, is the life divine, revealing spiritual understanding and the consciousness of man's dominion over the whole earth." Radio listeners in this vicinity may hear an authorized Christian Science lecture over KPI from Third Church of Christ, Scientist, Los Angeles, next Thursday from 12:10 to 12:50 noon, when Miss Lucia C. Coulson, C. S., of London, England, member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., will speak under the auspices of Ninth Church of Christ, Scientist, of Los Angeles. Oranges Eleventh In Value of U. S. Crops Figures from the Crop Reporting Board of the Department of Agriculture for 1928 show that oranges, in spite of a short crop in both California and Florida, stand eleventh in value of all U. S. crops. Corn, with a farm value of $2,133,000,000, is by far the largest and represents about 25 per cent of the value of all crops, $8,456,000,000. Cotton, valued at $1,291,000,000, comes second with hay third at $1,243,000,000. Of the eleven leaders, all having a farm value of $100,000,000 and over, seven, including oranges, show an increase over 1927. Such prominent crops as wheat, for example, show a loss of over $100,000,000. Apples lead all fruits with a farm value of $185,125,000 with oranges second at $130,500,000. Among the vegetables, white potatoes are well in the lead with a value of $250,000,000. Apples and oranges far exceed the next largest vegetable crop, sweet potatoes mustering only $72,680,000. Although in 1927 the value of the United States rapafruit and lemon crops was about identical, $22,320,000 for 7,200,000 boxes of grapefruit, as against $22,800,000 for 6,000,000 boxes of lemons, the lemons outstripped the grapefruit in value the following year. With a far net return of $22,720,000 for 7,100,000 boxes compared with $20,400,-ooo for 8,000,000 boxes of grapefruit.
