Growers Happy Over Bean Prices Limas Are Selling at Twelve Cents Per Pound This Year Orange county bean growers are elated this week over the prices of lima beans, which are now marketing at four cents more per pound than they did last year. The Globe Grain and Milling company of Los Angeles yesterday bought five carloads of limas from A. F Walker an independent grower at Bolsa, for September delivery, paying 12 cents per pound. In the latter part of August last year, the price was eight cents. Two carloads were also sold to the same concern by Thomas Haster of Katella, it was learned, at the same price. The Globe company is one of the bigger buying concerns doing business in Orange county. No indication of the price to be paid association members has been hinted so far in the season, but with independent growers selling their products far above the prices of last year, indications point to the fact that association growers also will receive big prices for their limas. Callens Brothers, of the O'Neill ranch near El Toro, reported they had sold four carloads of black eyes at eight cents, which is approximately twice as much as the same beans brought this time last year. It was reported. There is no association for black eyed beans in Orange county all growers of this variety being independents, but with price higher than it has been for years, the black eyed bean industry here also points to a successful year. The Callens Brothers' beans were sold to Hamilton, Wallace and Bryant, buyers of Los Angeles. MUST PAY TAXES ON HOTEL PROPERTY The Fairhaven Cemetery Association must pay taxes to Orange county on its Santa Ana hotel property, assessed at $53,310.

The coming September 9 will witness the 22nd annual celebration of Grape Day, as the festival is known, and preparations are now in a feverish state of preparation, for the citizenry has invited the world and feels the responsibility of her undertaking. Grape Day is one of the old and characteristic holidays of California. The grape was one of the state's first products and is still a popular one. The vintage season has its many attractions and in Escondido on this day ten tons of luscious grapes are given away to the visitors within the city's gates. The committee has prepared a fine program of entertainment, starting with a morning parade and passing through a noontide of feasting, an afternoon varied entertainment, one feature of which is the outdoor play, "Felicita," an epic of the battle of San Pasqual, and a night of revelry. Grape Day's reputation as a wholesome, old-fashioned celebration for all the people, is well established over Southern California and this year's orphan ever. The world is invited. Escondido is on the paved inland fering will be bigger and more complex highway between Los Angeles and San Diego, being the first town north of San Diego on the inland road, and is closely connected with the coast highway via Oceanside. The modern girl can drive a motor car seventy miles an hour and swim the English channel, but she still screams when she sees a mouse crossing the parlor floor.

The board of supervisors Tuesday denied a petition of the association, filed this week through H. J. Forgy, Santa Ana attorney, for cancellation of the assessment made by County Assessor James Sleeper. Action taken by the board places on the cemetery district the burden of bringing the matter into court if it wishes to contest the ruling and to get a court opinion on the law regarding taxation of cemetery districts. Forgy claims in his petition that the Santa Ana hotel property income is used entirely by the cemetery district for the purpose of maintaining its perpetual care fund for cemetery lots, and that therefore the hotel should be exempted from taxation under the state law. The board, in its action upheld the contention of Sleeper that the hotel should be taxed as business property. Southern California Fair in September Exposition Is To Be Held at Riverside Sept. 24th to 29th. Inclusive The exhibits of agricultural products pure bred hogs, cattle, sheep and horses that will be seen at the forthcoming Southern California Fair, to be held at Riverside September 24th to 29th, inclusive. Promise to be the best of all time and visitors will have the opportunity to not only see the exhibits but also to get competent advice and instruction from many of the best experts in the country, according to Mrs. C. G. Gravens, secretary of the fair association. The Southern California fair has had much to do with the growth of agricultural and livestock industries of the state and this offers an added inducement in the way of assistance relative to the major problems now confronting farmers and livestock breeders of this section. The Southern California air for 1929 will be more of an educational institution than ever before, it is stated. Although there is to be entertainment and amusement of every description throughout the week the fair is in progress, nevertheless, it is well to keep in mind, fair officials believe, that the fair is primarily educational. This is especially true of the Junior Fair, with its stock judging contests and other interests that develop the boys and girls of Southern California into the type of women and men which will perpetuate... The Southern California air for 1923 will be more of an educational institution than ever before, it is stated. Although there is to be entertainment and amusement of every description throughout the week the fair is in progress, nevertheless, it is well to keep in mind, fair officials believe, that the fair is primarily educational. This is especially true of the Junior Fair, with its stock judging contests and other interests that develop the boys and girls of Southern California into the type of women and men which will perpetuate the fame of the state as one of the greatest agricultural and livestock sections of the country. The Junior air this year is in charge of M. A. Klipf and is sponsored by the Rotary club of Riverside, State Board of Vocational Education, University of California Extension Service, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. of Riverside, and the California Teachers' Association, southern section. The Junior Fair will provide an opportunity for boys and girls to conduct their own fair and will be divided into three main divisions: Exhibits, livestock, Camp Richard J. Werner and Judging Contests. Officers as announced by Mrs. Cravens, are: Harmon Goodreau, Riverside, general superintendent; R. J. Werner, San Jose general supervisor and M. L. McFarlane director. Practically every inch in the industrial section has been taken, and owing to the fact that there are still exhibitors clamoring for space, it will be necessary to provide additional accommodations, it is stated Riverside auto dealers have signed up to the last man for a huge automobile show and all the latest models of cars will be on exhibit, their attractiveness enhanced by the most beautiful decorations and appointments ever planned for an affair of this nature, it is believed All that is new in the aeronautical world will also be on exhibit at the fair, and in addition to many models of airplanes it is hoped that March Field will show several of the latest pursuit and bombing planes and demonstrate the methods used in modern warfare in the air. Far East Doing Road Building Java, Ceylon, Indo-China all Are Laying Asphalt Pavements Far-fluing outposts of civilization—Java, Ceylon, Indo-China and the Malay colonies—where ox-carts over crude tropical trails cared for the transportation problems until recent years—are now rapidly becoming "motor-minded." And the only bar to complete autoization of these distant insular settlements on the lonely sea lanes—lack of proper roads—is now being removed by the construction of asphalt pavements. This extraordinary development of motordoin is glued from a report issued today by the export department of the Richfield Oil Company asphaltic division. This report showed especially heavy shipments of asphalt for roadway paving or flying field runways to the following points: Canada, China, Japan, Australia, British Malay Islands French Indo-China, Philippines, Java and Ceylon. Commenting on Richfield's report, J. R. Keane, president of the Western Asphalt Association, said: "It is a fact that only the lack of good highways has held back motorization of remote spots such as these mentioned. Now that the natives have learned that we lay more asphalt pavement in one day than their old plan of road building by hand could finish in six months, the demand for asphalt has grown tremendously. Increase of pavements, naturally, will bring a huge increase in the usage of motor cars and trucks." As to flying fields, the use of the airplane has become so universal and world-wide that even in islands off the beaten sea paths they are building (Continued on Page Four) 70% of Forest Land Has Fire Protection Organized protection against forest fires again demonstrated its effectiveness in holding down fire losses, according to a compilation of fire figures just completed by the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, for the calendar year 1928. On the 389,498,960 acres of forest land under protection last year, fires burned over a total of 4,428,500 acres, causing damage estimated at $8,853,629. Of the 178,855,050 acres of unprotected land 39,502,810 acres were burned over during the year, the damage being placed at $74,350,600. Of the 568,351,010 acres of forest land in the United States 68.5 per cent last year had some sort of organized protection, either by the Federal Government, the private owners, or by federal state and private agencies operating under the Clarke-McNary law. There were, however, 178,855,050 acres or 31.5 per cent of the total area still in need of protection. The fact that the fire damage on the protected 68½ per cent of the total forest area was less than one-eighth that on the unprotected 31½ per cent is a striking demonstration of the value of organized protection in saving forest values, says the Forest Service. Complete reports to the Forest Service show a total of 177,362 forest fires in the United States last year. Of these, 40,579 broke out on protected lands, while 136,362 occurred on unprotected areas. Careless smokers were responsible for the largest number of fires on protected forest lands, causing 8,346 fires, or 20.5 per cent of the total. Incendiaris a ranked next as a cause of fire, being responsible for 7,275 fires, or 17.9 per cent. Brush-burning was reported as the cause of 13.2 per cent of the fires.

The fact damage on the protected of the total forest area one-eighth that on the per cent is a striking value of organized logging forest values, says Ice. Arts to the Forest Service of 177,362 forest fires States last year. Of take out on protected 362 occurred on unprotected. kers were responsible number of fires on prods, causing 8,346 fires, of the total. Incen- next as a cause of fire, for 7,276 fires, or 17.9 burning was reported 3.2 per cent of the fires lightning 9.3 per cent, camp fires 9.1 per cent, railroads 8.9 per cent, lumbering 3.9 per cent, miscellaneous 9.2 per cent, and unknown 7.9 per cent. Reports as to causes of fires on unprotected areas are too incomplete and unreliable to warrant tabulation. The Gulf group of states had the greatest number of fires in 1928 as well as in 1927. A total of 99,120 fires on the unprotected area and 12,987 on protected lands were reported in 1928 in this group of states. As against 1.14 per cent for the United States as a whole, the proportion of the total protected forest land burned over in the Gulf states last year was 5.60 per cent. In the Central states, 1.68 per cent of the protected area was burned over; in the Pacific Coast states, 1.64 per cent; in the Middle Atlantic states, 0.99 per cent; in the Southeastern group, 0.98 per cent; in the Lake states, 0.43 per cent; in the Northeastern group, 0.21 per cent; and in the Rocky Mountain group, 0.12 per cent. Nearly 20,000,000 additional acres of land were placed under systematic fire protection during 1928.
