This dwelling is typical of the homes built in the Alaskan country by the American colonizers.

"Special emphasis is placed on the strict requirements of truck operators, the importance of proper mechanical conditioning of trucks for safety, and the necessary safety equipment required by law." Judge Kenneth Morrison of Santa Ana, County Supervisor William Jerome of Orange, Chief of Police James Bouldin of Anaheim, Police Chief Floyd Howard of Santa Ana, Captain H. C. Mechan, head of the Orange county highway patrol and Chief of Police George Franzen of Orange are all elated over the results of the Traffic Safety service organization to obtain the active interest of the Mexicans. Many of the serious traffic accidents in this state have been attributed to the Mexicans and this is the first time a real constructive program has been offered to remedy the condition. Headlight adjustment stations have been created and every Mexican's vehicle will be thoroughly inspected by the motor highway patrol, who have offered their assistance. Honorary traffic patrols are being conducted by the Mexican colonies at their social parties and other functions. Each colony consists of about a thousand persons and the voluntary policing of their own people is to be commended, declares Lawrence Raymond, managing director of the sponsoring organization. Mexican newspapers are running news stories and articles on safety. Through financial assistance of the Mexican businessmen, the state motor vehicle act will be translated into Spanish. Elias Colunga, consul of Mexico, believes that traffic safety service is carrying on a most vital program which will do much to reduce accidents and fatalities. Before the first of the year similar activities FARM INCOME IN 1935 Six Billion NEW YORK — America's farm operators last year fought their way over floods, droughts, dust storms, crop curtailment, loss of the foreign market, comparatively low prices and many other hurdles to a net real or actual income from farm operations of $6,203,-000,000. This is revealed by the agricultural committee of the National Association of Manufacturers in a current bulletin announcing the results of a study of farm income. The farmer's gross income from farm production in 1935, including government payments for that crop year, was $8,508,000,000. "The interesting thing is," says the bulletin, "that his net real or actual income was only $2,305,000,000 less than that." Too frequently, the bulletin points out, gross income is divided by the number of farms and the result, labeled "average income per farm," is given wide attention. This gives about as true a picture as dividing the total income of incorporated businesses by the total number of corporations and calling the result the "income of the ordinary business," the report suggests. In discussing the distribution of this income, the bulletin points out that according to the 1935 census, 3,899,091 farms were operated by their owners. This represented 57.2 of all farms. Of the remaining 42.8 per cent 2,865,155 were operated by tenants and 48.-104 by hired managers. Farms operated by tenants are smaller on the average than those operated by their owners or by managers. While the average farm in the United States was 154.8 acres, the average farm operated by all tenants in 1935 exclusive of croppers was 143 acres and the average operated by croppers was 41.7 acres. THROWING A BLOOMER How the third party candidate expected to get on the California ballot is as mysterious as the identity of the guy who struck Billy Patterson. Only those who did not vote at the May election could sign his little change. Both men's women's shoes have advanced materially, and as a whole, clothing component in the overall living cost index shows increase of 20 per cent over depression low, though still 12 percent under 1920 levels, thevey revealed. Other costs, including transportation, recreation, have risen materially in recent months, which accounts for general upward trend in the living index. Wages, however according to the Review, have parently not increased in lines as rapidly as prices; the unemployment is not as serious it was a year ago. "Despite the dire prognosis of many 'economic analysis', the trend of general business ditions continues to rise," Business Review stated.

Cost of Living Increase Slows Living costs in Southern California, taken in the aggregate, have a rather steady rise that is in April, 1934, but under current circumstances, should rise rapidly in the next six months. Which is the observation and action of the Southern California Business Review in the October issue, published by Dr. Boston H. Ross, head of the University of Southern California, of business research. Goods in this area show a slight upward trend in costs, and are 12 per cent below a dozen metropolitan centers in the city, according to the Review. Furniture market, increasing at 7 per cent since March, is fairly stabilized at present; should remain at the present level for some time. Men's clothing has advanced most some 8 per cent in recent years, while during the same period, men's clothing has shown a change. Both men's and women's shoes have advanced similarly, and as a whole, the ing component in the gen-living cost index shows an increase of 20 per cent over the session low, though still 12 per cent under 1920 levels, the surprise revealed. Other costs, including rents, transportation, recreation, etc., risen materially in recent years, which accounts for the greatest possibilities for quick increase in consumption to take care of present surplus production. We think we have it and are going to invest these additional advertising funds in a further test campaign next season," explained W. B. Geissinger, advertising manager of the exchange. The new use is lemon juice, soda and water as a laxative and tonic and the advertising will run from November through April, the months of lowest lemon consumption, he said. Test campaigns in six eastern cities last winter brought very gratifying results. The entire grapefruit budget will go into merchandising work, featuring retail store demonstrations, in a further attempt to widen distribution for California and Arizona grapefruit. Budget Enlarged For Advertising Some may be satisfied to merely "view with alarm" and "let George do it" when faced with marketing problems, but not so the California Fruit Growers Exchange, whose board of directors today increased advertising appropriations for 1937 on lemons and grapefruit. Decision to increase navel orange advertising to seven cents per box was made several weeks ago. Sunkist lemon advertising was increased from ten cents to twelve cents per box and grapefruit from three to four cents per box. "We have been investigating a new use for lemons that would have the greatest possibilities for quick increase in consumption to take care of present surplus production. We think we have it and are going to invest these additional advertising funds in a further test campaign next season," explained W. B. Geissinger, advertising manager of the exchange. The entire grapefruit budget will go into merchandising work, featuring retail store demonstrations, in a further attempt to widen distribution for California and Arizona grapefruit.
