The difference of $7,250,935 between the figure reported by the auditor and that announced on July 8 by County Assessor James is accounted for largely by the fact that intangibles are not included in the figure submitted by Jerome, while they were included in

We were told that they were twice as good as last year, but that the prices are about half what they were, so the farmer is no better off than formerly.
"We succeeded in missing most of the depressing weather in the Mid-West, although the sun made things pretty hot for us at times. We passed through that country before the heat had damaged the crops extensively, as late press reports indicate. We had planned to go on down through Texas and back by the southern route, but the blinkless smile of Old Sol argued against that course. We're happy to be back."

CHIROPRACTORS TALK LONGEVITY
Co-ordination of Health Measures to be Discussed; Adver tise Curative Processes
Discussions on how to extend man's normal span of life have been listed in large number on the program of the National Progressive Chiropractic association's sixth annual convention, to take place August 17 to 24 in the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic.
Many delegates, according to Dr. Charles H. Wood, general chairman, hope the discussions may lead eventually to a co-ordination of health measures, which may add 10 or more years to the lifetime of the average human being.
"These steps," he said, "never will be attained by artificial or synthetic means. Longer lives will be realized when man learns to balance his sleep, meals, work and play."
That chiropractic long since has progressed beyond the stage at which every milestone is treated with spinal adjustments, is another thing. It was said, which the convention will emphasize. Delegates will be impressed they must advertise on every occasion the fact that modern chiropractors utilize every curative process, which is theirs, by right of state legislation, to apply.

Two thousand different prize contests will be held in selecting the winners in the various departments of Los Angeles county fair which opens Friday, September 12 and continues through Sunday, September 21, according to a report made by Manager C. B. Afflerbaugh to the board of directors.
The significant statement was made in connection with the announcement to the officials that the 1930 exposition would shatter all records for attendance, number and variety of exhibits, range of territory covered, etc.
During the past few days over 30,000 premium books have been malled out to prospective exhibitors and these went into practically every state of the union as well as into Mexico, Canada and European countries. It will require 50 acres of floor space to care for the entries while special spur track facilities have been arranged for bringing the train loads of livestock which will go to make up the greatest exhibition in this division ever attempted in the southland.
A total of $100,000 will be awarded in cash and trophy premiums. No other fair in the state offers so large an amount outside of the state fair at Sacramento. In order that the small exhibitors of fruits vegetables and nuts may have an opportunity to display their products 40,000 square feet of space have been set aside for plate and rack displays. The women's department this year will also be larger than ever while superintendent Paul Kennedy states that the poultry show will eclipse anything of the kind held west of the rockles this year.
Valencia Golf Course Opened

She is survived by her parents, one sister, Mrs. S. K. Burgess of Los Angeles, four brothers, Thomas H., Jr., Paul S., Donald, all of Los Angeles, and Kenneth of the city.
Funeral services were held this afternoon at the First Presbyterian church here, Dr. John Hunter of South Pasadena assisted by Rev. O. S. McFarland of Santa Ana, being in charge. Her four brothers acted as pallbearers, Charles Pearson and Walter Noble also serving. Burial was in Fairhaven cemetery in Santa Ana.
The educational survey of the county was asked b ythe two boards in an effort to get on impartial professional view of the situation in the county and recommendations as to future action so that the youth of the county could be served best in educational matters, as well as getting data that might lead to a solution of the union junior college matter that has been proposed.
D. K. Hammond, president of the Santa Ana board of education, in company with George Newcomb, city school business manager, read the resolution adopted by the Santa Ana board at its last meeting, requesting that the supervisors be petitioned to make an educational survey similar to that conducted some years ago in Siskiyou county and declaring that it would benefit the entire county in determining its educational needs.
W. J. Travers, of the Fullerton board of education, joined in the request for the survey, declaring that there were many problems in connection with secondary education that were of great importance and that the point had been reached where it was believed that joint action with the educators of the entire county was advisable.
S. J. Tuffree, the other member of the Fullerton board who was present, declared that the opinions of the people of the northern part of the county on educational matters were at a variance, with some favoring the 6-4-4 plan and others opposed to it. He declared that they were all united however, with the exception of a few people in Fullerton, in the opinion that the best thing for the entire county was to ask the county to finance the survey.
"The young people of the county are one of the greatest assets, and we need the best advice on numerous educational problems that would be considered in the survey," he declared. He also stated that he believed all parts of the county would benefit and should join in the cost of the matter. Another argument he advanced was that the matter should be regarded in the light of flood control, with competent experts selected to determine what was advisable and gather information that would be used for the guidance of education in the county.
"Needs are increasing and the survey would give the citizens information on which they could act or vote intelligently," he said.
Charles Chapman presented the view point of the supervisors in questions he asked concerning whether the two bodies had reached an agreement to abide by survey authorities might
be attained by artificial or synthetic means. Longer lives will be realized when man learns to balance his sleep, meals, work and play."
That chiropractic long since has progressed beyond the stage at which every milestone is treated with spinal adjustments, is another thing, it was said, which the convention will emphasize.

Indications that the strip of beach land between Huntington Beach and Newport Beach proposed as a state park will be acquired by condemnation proceedings was seen Tuesday as the result of statements made before the board of supervisors by Thomas E. Workman, of Los Angeles, representative of several of the property owners, who, accompanied by T. B. Talbert, of Huntington Beach, appeared before the board.
Talbert and Workman endeavored to persuade the board members that negotiations should be entered into with the property owners in an effort to arrive at a price where a deal could be made without resorting to court action, but they were informed by the board that they would be unable to consider any figure other than that which the two appraising bodies had reported, and that the matter had been placed in the hands of T. W. O'Melveney, of Los Angeles, member of the state park commission, to be carried to conclusion.
Workman previously had stated that O'Melveney, in a conference with the property owners at his office last Friday, had taken the attitude that condemnation proceedings would be resorted to if the owners did not care to accept the price which he formally offered them at that time. He had asked, however, that the owners consent to a friendly condemnation, agreeing to accept the price set by the court without taking an appeal, but Workman, who represents half of the owners, stated yesterday that the owners were not inclined to do this in face of the price offered which is $618,800.
There is to be another conference on the matter at the office of O'Melveney next Friday, and Supervisor John C. Mitchell, of Garden Grove and County Purchasing Agent F. W. Slabaugh, were designated to represent Orange county at this conference.
The property, which it is proposed to acquire jointly by the state and county for the creation of a state park to be improved and maintained by the state, consists of 12,400 feet (approximately two and one-third miles) of ocean frontage, and 344 acres of back land.
Owners are Hanson Moore, whose holdings consist of 3361 feet of beach and 93;86 acres, which he values at $436,080; Harold G. Ferguson corporation, 1500 feet of beach, $150,000; Willow Land company, 7600 feet of beach, $760,000; A. C. Thorne, 114 acres, $57,000; and Pacific Ranch company, 130 acres, $65,000. There also is a strip of 45 feet of beach owned by the Pacific home, valued at $4500 in the owner's statement of values. The total valuation of property as claimed by the owners is $1,472,580.
The price set by the county appraisal board of five men an dthe appraisal company engaged by the state park board is itemized as follows: beach frontage owned by Moore, Ferguson and the Willow company, $496,-000; acreage owned by Moore, Thorne and the Pacific company; as follows, Moore, 50,000; Thorne, $37,050; Pacific ranch, $37,750.
