California Ranks First In Peaches When peaches are considered, California ranks first in the nation, 14 of the 50 leading counties in the United States, based on trees of bearing age, being found in this state. That fact is outstanding in a study of a census bureau report made by the state department of agriculture. Georgia, famous for its peaches, ranks next to California, with 11 counties among the first fifty major peach producing counties. California's three leading peach counties, on the basis of the federal report are, in order of the number of trees in bearing age: Sutter, Fresno and Stanislaus. Other California counties among those ranked are, in order, Merced, Placer, Tulare, San Joaquin, San Bernardino, Butte, Sacramento, Kings, Yuba, Riverside and Solano.

All things and without him made that was made John are the Golden Sermon on Sunday Science churches, Mother Church, The Christ Scientist, in subject of the Le question: 'Is there Man, Evolved by A The Lesson-Ser verses from the Bible spoken once; twice that power belongs thou exalted.

A correlative Christian Science and Health with Keys by Mary Baker Eddison infinite therefore there is no other place Hence the spiritually only fact of cr ANAHEIM GAZETTE The federal government, in its huge public works program, designed to relieve unemployment and re-vitalize American trade and industry, can well afford to give serious consideration to the needs of agriculture. Advantages of this great re-employment program need not be temporary, if the national government will seize upon the opportunities which are afforded. For instance, permanent benefits, of far-reaching importance to California farmers, could be achieved by the completion of land utilization surveys designed to point the way to more efficient and economical use of farm lands. Millions of dollars can be saved for California farmers, if these studies are carried to completion, and serious future over-production problems can be avoided. There is a golden opportunity, at the present period, to use some of this gigantic public works fund in removing some of the hazard—some of the gamble—from farming, whether it be in California, or Michigan. Essentially, there are three steps in the land utilization surveys in California, as follows: 1. Completion of topographic surveys which are necessary as a basis for subsequent soil surveys. 2. Soil surveys, disclosing the types and characters of soil. 3. Crop surveys, based on the soil surveys, providing vital data on the types of soil which can be farmed profitably—and the crops which can be produced on each soil with reasonable hope of profit. Expert soil survey men, and expert tenants, "Floating Checks" Tie Up 2 Millions As Farmers Delay Federal Land Bank Balance Shows Debits Without Funds Reaching the Borrower More than $2,000,000 in "floating checks" drawn to the credit of farmers in the Farm Credit Administration's eleventh district for loans approved but not yet closed by action of the farmer-borrowers themselves stands to the debit of the Berkeley Federal Land Bank. The major causes of delay in the distribution of this amount, Richard Young, general counsel for the district, says, are the indifference of farmers in the matter of signing final closing papers and delays in adjustment of title defects. Figures for the week ending Nov. 29 showed 3,994 loans approved by the Land Bank's executive committee awaiting either the borrower's forwarding of title abstract or title insurance, or their composition with creditors of debts on a basis possible of being covered by the loan. In numberless instances, said Young, the bank's inquiry as to cause of delay in closing of loans brought the reply that the farmer-borrower was "getting in his hay," or otherwise diverted from getting into town to close the loan. "We can well understand delays caused by defects in the title as indicated in the abstract supplied the legal department of the bank," commented the Land Bank's counsel. "It is difficult, however, to justify a borrower's neglect to execute final papers closing the loan after the bank's notification of approval has been received by him. By so doing he is keeping tied up money which may be sorely needed by others as well as checking the bank's effort to serve pressing demands for many thousands." Maintenance Of Clinic Work Best Control For T. Support of Present Facility Urgently Needed to Guarantee Progress Against Disease Increased clinic activity, a greater amount of hospitalization and segregation, a more frequent application of surgery in tuberculosis, a wider scope for possible tuberculosis infection among children have all contributed, not only in meeting the usual inroads to economic depression in the past formally made against health, causing an increase in the death rate from tuberculosis, but even in achieving a reduction above the average according to statement issued by the California Tuberculosis association, now conducting its annual Christmas Seal Sale. The statement continued: "It is obvious that the maintenance and support of these new standard facilities is the best guarantee for the control of tuberculosis. We must not forget that tuberculosis is a disease of long duration, and that the continued support these facilities is necessary to prevent the present increased morbidity from the disease being reflected in the decrease." The California Tuberculosis association has statistics that show there has been an increase in tuberculosis infestation due to the depression with its consequent lowered standards of living. Such great effort has been directed toward the cure of this disease in its stages that this increase has brought extra deaths, but has greatly increased the burden on those associations engaged in tuberculosis work. Unless this work is carried on with a creased vigor, made possible by a successful Seal Sale, further spread of disease and a higher death rate may be expected. The statement from the tuberculosis association continues: Help Uncle Build Your When you help to secure an overwhelmin the harbor proposition next Tuesday you will Orange County IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SAM in the development of a real Federal Newport Bay, with channel 20 feet deep, and yachts, coastwise commercial ships, and draft Naval vessels.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." These words of John are the Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Christian Science churches, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The subject of the Lesson-Sermon is the question: "Is the Universe, including Man, Evolved by Atomic Force?" The Lesson-Sermon includes the verses from the Psalms: "God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God." "Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine own strength; so will we sing and praise thy power." A correlative passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "God is infinite, therefore ever present, and there is no other power nor presence. Hence the spirituality of the universe is the only fact of creation." You will open up hundreds of jobs, stimulate business activities of all kinds, and attract new taxpaying wealth.

You will issue your invitation to the Navy to use your harbor and spend money in Orange county, and will undoubtedly make Orange county the home of the greatest yachting fleet in America, popular with thousands of visitors the year 'round. You will approve an indebtedness of $640,000 as Orange county's share of the cost, repayable over a 30-year period at 4 per cent, which will cost less than 85 cents per family per year on an average, and will not be noticed because of the new taxpayers who will come and help share the county tax costs. It's a good business proposition to spend $1 and get $2 from Uncle Sam. It's intelligent common sense to create employment and develop a permanent payroll, while building up our wonderful asset which already has lain idle too long.

Jam $1400 Worth Of Diamonds In Hole In Ground Sounds Koolish, But Precious Stones Are Used For Drilling Base for Control Dam Jamming $1400 worth of diamonds down a hole in the ground sounds foolish, but it's merely an incident towards finding a secure footing for the $60,000,000 flood control dam which Uncle Sam proposes to throw across the Missouri river near Glasgow, Mont. The core drilling equipment in use at the dam site has eight black diamonds of a carat's weight each. Each diamond is fixed on the point of a bit that rotates into the ground. As the bit digs out the earth and rock, the material is crowded back into a core barrel of four inches diameter and a foot in length. After each 10 feet is drilled this core barrel is pulled to the surface and the core is extracted and examined. Tentative plans call for a dam 231 feet high which will impound 17 million acre feet of water. It will flood more than 200,000 square miles of river bottom and back the water up 175 miles. The dam site is 23 miles southeast of Glasgow, in northeastern Montana. Construction is expected to get under way next spring. It is a part of the industrial recovery-public works program. Exservicemen and local labor will be given preference in employment. Roads Improved In Death Valley Rapid progress is being made on grading and improvement of existing north and south roads in Death Valley by the CCC camps now established there, it is reported by Superintendent John R. White of Death Valley National Monument, to the Automobile Club of Southern California. Smoothing existing roads, "bulldozing" where bad washes make it necessary, and making temporary re-alignments in places where the road is completely gone or considered inadvisable to restore, crews working in opposite directions have progressed as far south as Bennett's Well and north to Surveyor's Well, a total distance of nearly 50 miles. The purpose is to make existing roads passable, says the report. About 10 miles above Surveyor's Well, engineers have established a flag line for a new, temporary alignment of the road north to the upper end of the valley. It is stated that this new alignment should eliminate much of the danger from cloudbursts, since it extends higher along the talus slope. Around the sandy stretch, in the vicinity of Tule Springs and in the badly washed area near Bennett's Well workers have relocated the road south, says the club. Improvement and clearing of the Golden Canyon road now makes it possible for cars to traverse the canyon to the extreme head, a distance of 1.3 miles from the valley mouth. Titus Canyon is being opened for tourists' use, and several wide canyons have been explored and trails built for hikers. Wake Up Your Liver Bile —Without Calomel Wake Up Your Liver Bile —Without Calomel And You’ll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin’ to Go If you feel sour and sunk and the world looks punk, don’t swallow a lot of salts, mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full-of sunshine. For they can’t do it. They only move the bowels and a mere movement doesn’t get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your headaches and you feel down and out. Your whole system is poisoned. It takes those good, old CARTER’s LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel “up and up.” They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
