California’s Crops Near Half Billion California farmers during 1933 received an aggregate income from agricultural crops, livestock, and livestock products of $408,395,000, an increase of 9.8 per cent over the income for 1932, according to a report issued by the California state chamber of commerce. It is estimated that the cash-income-per farm during the last year was approximately $3,000. Field crops, as a group, showed the largest increase over the preceding year, the income gain from these crops being 30 per cent. Fruit crops made an increase of 19.5 per cent, but the return from vegetable crops was 8.2 per cent below 1932. The total income from agricultural crops in 1932 was placed at $371,965,000. The value of the California citrus crop last year was slightly higher than that of the proceeding year, the 1933 total being $49,943,000, as against $49,-265,000 in 1932.

Do not fly kites near Electric Wires! Kite-flying time always brings heaps of fun to thousands of boys and girls. But in past years, kite-flying has resulted in serious injury to a few whose kites came in contact with power-lines. Every boy and girl should know these 3 SAFETY RULES 1. Do not fly kites anywhere near electric wires. 2. Never use wire or tinsel cord or cord that has become damp from rain or fog. 3. If cord is caught in Power-Line...let go! Do not pull it. Call the power company to remove it and get your kite back for you. Edison SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY LTD. St. Louis Exhibits World's Ugliest Birds ST. LOUIS: . . .

Howard Mitchell jumped ball back in 1932, in Orange county. A mighty smooth operator.

PROMOTION! His chief assistant D. A. J. L. Davis, Thorpe Optimistic Growers Surplus Next Crop; Pre Foreign Trade Far Exceeds Europe; Control Board On Hand; Importance of California walnut growers we cleaned up and no holdover, account manager of the California Walnut growers at their annual institute. Thorpe's report was one of the most for several years. "There is a dis upward trend of business through the East," said Thorpe. "Hotels full, trains are running in two or three sections, and there is a general fear of better times ahead. Twice as many walnuts have been sold this January than any previous January. To 509,000 bags of walnuts have been domestic markets. The association has on hand only 69,000 bags not compared with 300,000 bags a year." Foreign sales have been more than fondest expectations," he said. "When I came back from Europe fall, I thought 70,000 bags would be extent of their demand, but in four months we have sold over 20 bags to the European markets, and good prices. We have even gone France, which raises large quantities nuts, and sold them over 7,000. The prices today on exports are about 13 cents f.o.b. for Diamond one cents for Diamond large buds and cents for Emerald large buds. I peared that we have developed a reasonably permanent foreign outlet. But over there have written of their complete satisfaction of the quality weights of the shipments. They know our standards are dependable." In reviewing the returns to grower for the present crop, he EXTRADITION Charged with grand theft to the tune of $30,000, in connection with the sale of oil stocks and specifically facing a charge of grand theft in the sum of $3,000. Howard Mitchell jumped ball back in 1932, in Orange county. A mighty smooth operator, Mitchell was apprehended in Chicago during the year of 1933 and jumped ball in the sum of $500, there to disappear and next be heard from in St. Petersburg. Florida. Evading the machinery of law there he was placed under arrest in Tallahassee, capital of Florida. IMPORTANT CASE Adjudged one of the most important cases appearing on the supreme court calendar of the state of Florida, the Mitchell extradition case stood at odds and ends, when District Attorney S. B. (Soppy) Kaufman arrived in the scene. By some smart application of psychology, Soppy persuaded Mitchell that it would be nice to return to the beautiful scenes of California. Dean brought him back. All of which is pretty much Chinese to the average layman, who assumes that the machinery of the law is predicated upon the prompt arrest and prosecution of malefactors of small or great wealth. But it ain't so. The laws are drawn to make sweet pickings for the legal brains—into whose fangs are tossed most of the law-making and law-enforcement machinery. Incidentally Mitchell has retained some of the best legal talent in the county and will draw from Los Angeles some keen legal brains, to outwit Orange county prosecutors from finding him guilty of the charges which he faces early in March, at a trial in Superior Judge Ames court. TOUGH In passing, it is interesting to note that offenders against the laws of the State of California have often expressed their dissatisfaction with facing juries in Orange county. They find 'em tough—and would prefer, in the majority of cases to stand trial in Los Angeles county. GOT HIS MAN The aforementioned incident is not quoted to build up any particular ballyhoo for the campaign for Soppy Kaufman for district attorney of Orange county. Rather it is a little human interest story to show that Soppy "got his man," which is one of the things his activities in office to do the major part of his campaigning for him, stating in the meantime that he has tried to perform his duties efficiently and to the best of his ability. PROMOTION! His chief assistant D. A. J. L. Davis, according to popular rumor (not confirmed by Kaufman) is slated for the high places of legal preferment, as the gossip old Dame says he is a democrat with the most salubrious connections in the party councils of the Bourbons. Another rumor has it that he will run for congress on the democratic ticket from the 19th district. In either event he seems to be on his way out of the D. A.'s office for better things—and will not therefore enter the complications of the D. A. runoff in this county. Other aids of Soppy are Leo Frisl and Harold McCabe. Both seem interested in the successful run of their chief and Wm. F. Menton has his hands full keeping the board of supervisors out of trouble and sailing smoothly. So it seems that if any competition arises—and it is pretty certain to evitate somewhere along the line—it looks like it will come from without the confines of the D. A.'s office. DAILY ANGLE What position will the daily papers of the county assume on the race for this important office? Most likely they may split their preferences two or more ways, according to who makes the race against Soppy. CANDIDATES Again the old Gal with the long tongue surmises that Soppy is not in the most affectionate graces of the publisher of the county seat daily. The Dame thinks the latter might support Al Launer, although the barrister from Fullerton is strong in assertions that he will not be a candidate. On the other hand Mr. Burke has stated in stentorian tones that he is not going to support his colorful brother, Maxwell. Of course even the most vehement denials can never be accepted this early in the game at their positive face value, in the intricate game of politics. So it is the opinion of many who diagnose these complicated matters that Launer will run, supported in the primarlees by J. Frank. Maxwell Burke looks like a "natural" from where we sit—and should he make the grade in the prizes, and sold them over 7,000. The prices today on exports are about 13 cents f.o.b. for Diamond one cents for Diamond large buds and cents for Emerald large buds. I peep that we have developed a relatively permanent foreign outlet. But over there have written their complete satisfaction of the quality weights of the shipments. They know our standards are dependable. In reviewing the returns to grower for the present crop, heimated that about 2.36 cents more were added to the 10.2 cents per pear already advanced to the grower, making a total of 12.56 cents per pound or average. This is in comparison to cents received last year. Culls will bring more per pound this year they have for three years. $700,000 already been realized on culls and is only part payment. W. E. Goodspeed, secretary of walnut control board, also adds to the group and reported that one of 191,000 bags, representing the 1933 plus, or 30% of the total supply year, including the holdover of 130,000 bags have been exported 44,000 bags have been sold for sheds Only 17,000 bags are still in the field of control board, and these disposed of well before the new crop comes in. The board anticipates to return to the grower 1 cent or 2½ cent retain held out this year control purposes. R. W. Blackburn, president of California farm bureau federation speaking of the "Importance of Operation in Solving Marketing Problems," said that the solution of successful agriculture was dependent on cooperation of all agricultural groups. He said, "Agriculture had adrift today. Never has this pay agriculture been so clearly determined as at the present time. A new or truly here. The way is pointed out remains for farm groups to act in unselfishly, and the future will suit satisfactory to the basic industry land." Blackburn explained recent reference between the president and others of the large farm organization cluding the American farm federation. Among the policies as on were (1) support the president's monetary program; (2) add national land policy based on a land demand; (3) favor Philippine dependence; (4) control of grain cotton exchanges; eliminate speculation.

Rather it is a little human interest story to show that Soppy "got his man," which is one of the things for which serious minded folks elect and support the chief prosecuting officer of their county, state and nation. It looks like a pretty good job from where we sit. NEVER ELECTED Paradoxical as it seems, Soppy occupying one of the most important elective offices in the county, has never taken his case to the public by the method of a public election. Effcient assistant to Sam Collins, Soppy was elevated to the D. A. spot when Sam left to take up his duties in Washington, as a result of his successful run for congress from the newly created 19th district. Looking nice and innocent, he says he is a novice in the political arena and that he is content to permit Hints For the Home Cleansing powders best adapted to different metals are as follows: For iron and wood — white sand; steel knives—Bath or Bristol brick; copper, brass and tin — tripoll or rottenstone; silver, aluminum and tin — whiting. Tin receptacles are best to keep cakes and cookies fresh, while stone crocks are best for bread. If a cup of water is placed in the cake tins, its contents will stay fresh longer than you ever believed possible. If bread and cake are stored together, the cake will keep well but the bread will stale quickly, due to the action of moisture. Roquefort Dressing ½ cup salad oil 2 tablespoons Roquefort Cheese ¼ teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon salt 2 drops Tabasco sauce ¼ cup vinegar Stir cheese until creamy and add seasonings. Gradually blend in oil and vinegar. Chill. Onions should be parboiled before baking to facilitate the process unless the main dish is going to require an hour or more for cooking. Remove from the water carefully, to retain the shape, and place whole in a buttered baking dish—or if for some reason you wish to hurry them up exceedingly, slice before parboiling.
