50 Years Ago January 14, 1887. The land sales of the Southern Pacific company along the line of the Southern Pacific railroad for the past year aggregated 362,254 acres, for which was received $845,763. The Southern Pacific complains of the government because of its refusal or failure to issue patents on over 600,000 acres of land that have remained there utterly ignored since 1882. Commissioner W. H. Mills of the Central Pacific states that the sale of railroad lands along that line for the past year has been much less than usual in this state, but that in Nevada and Utah quite the reverse is the case. The cash receipts on the whole have been ten per cent in advance of last year. Mr. Mills says that inquiry and demand from the east and elsewhere for grazing land and is increasing constantly and rapidly. The demand now is greater than ever before in the hitory of the state. Mr. R. H. Gilman reminds us once again that now is the time of year when the destructive liner should have swift justice dealt out to him.

Green Bay Grid Team Will Play Two former Trojan stars, players who helped U.S.C. make gridiron history, will be in the lineup of the Green Bay Packers when that club plays the Los Angeles Bulldogs at Gilmore stadium Sunday afternoon. Ernie Smith, former All-America tackles, who this year was placed on the All Pro team by the vote of the coaches, will be in the line for the Packers. Another player is Cal Clemens, the husky Frost Warnings To Be Continued Through January Assurance of adequate time for continuation of the nightly tempature forecasts by Floyd Young over radio station KNX has been received from the Columbia Broadcasting system according to announcement from the California Fruit Growers exchange. The frost warning will be given at the usual time of 8 p.m. every night except Sunday, when a flash announcement will be made at that hour with complete report to follow at 9:45 p.m. For the six week nights a full five minute period is available with additional time if emergency demands it. This arrangement is now definite for the balance of the month of January at least. With the switch of all Columbia programs to KNX a week ago there was some difficulty in arranging for sufficient time at 8 o'clock because of the continuous sponsored chain programs at that time of night, which is as early as the weather forecast can be prepared by Young. "Citrus growers should know that Columbia and KNX officials fully appreciate the public service and economic value of this nightly broadcast to the citrus industry and to the state," said Paul S. Armstrong, general manager of the exchange. "They have done everything within their power to cooperate with us and with Young to give this important service the time on the air required and to keep the same hour to which growers have become accustomed." "Columbia and KNX are doing slightly above those of our year and with tomly under that of -1935 fruit and nut growers, an even balance in 1936 previous year, accordiport made today by the state crop reporting sentence department of age." Two former Trojan stars, players who helped U.S.C. make gridiron history, will be in the lineup of the Green Bay Packers when that club plays the Los Angeles Bulldogs at Gilmore stadium Sunday afternoon. Ernie Smith, former All-America tackles, who this year was placed on the All-Pro team by the vote of the coaches, will be in the line for the Packers. Another player is Cal Clemens, the husky backfield man who, with Ernie Pinckert, is known as one of the two best blockers, the Trojans ever had. Earl L. "Curley" Lambeau, coach of the Green Bay Packers, has brought the entire team to Los Angeles that won the National Pro league title, and with the remarkable showing made by the Los Angeles Bulldogs this year. A striking instance of the effects of the strike on employment is cited by the state chamber in the closing, or curtailment of operations, of eight Bay district plants in vegetable oils, which are almost entirely shipped by water. In these eight plants, 1000 men have been thrown out of work, and the economic loss is estimated at $500,000. This game should prove to be one of the toughest battles yet played in Los Angeles. Lambeau says that a tough game will put his club in the proper condition to meet the Chicago Bears at the Gilmore stadium the following Sunday afternoon. America's greatest forward-passing combination—the Arnold Herber to Don Hutson touchdown special, will see action against the Bulldogs. Herber and Hutson set a new record for completing passes in the post-graduate ranks and they intend to show how they did it. GREATER ANAH 225 EAST CENTER STREET Vegetable Dept. JONES & NOSLER Props.

ORTEGA GREEN PEELED CH 2 Cans 15¢ CHEWING GUM LIFESAVERS 3 fo Grade Crossings Take Heavy Toll As in former years, railroad crossing accidents took a terrific toll of human lives in 1936. In many cases, a cool head could have saved the situation, states the public safety department of the National Automobile club. Here's what happens lots of times: a driver will slow down to 10 or 15 miles an hour when approaching the tracks; suddenly he hears the warning bell or sees the train coming. He immediately steps on the gas to get across in time and his car stalls—right in the path of the locomotive. If this should happen to you, try to remember this simple rule, furnished by the National Safety Council: Put your car in gear, let out the clutch, and step on the starter. The car will chug forward out of danger. Still another good rule to know is this: When you have slackened your speed approaching the tracks, shift into first or second gear, instead of trying to speed up in high gear. The latter often causes the car to stall, as has just been said.

Returns Steady With average farm prices slightly above those of the previous year and with tonnage slightly under that of -1935, California fruit and nut growers held about an even balance in 1936 with the previous year, according to a report made today by the federal-state crop reporting service at the state department of agriculture. The combined estimated of harvested production of the major California fruit and nut crops in 1936 totaled 4,389,076 tons, with an estimated farm value of $174,-338,000, equivalent to an average ton value of $39.72. In 1935 the combined estimates of harvested production totaled 4,571,992 tons with an estimated farm value of $173,688,000. The average value per ton of the 1935 crops was estimated at $37.99. An article on gambling says the suckers get back 80 per cent of their "investment." Evidently the new slot machines haven't got to our town yet.

This is Where Bob’s “Tail” Becomes a LAUNDRY “TALE” Long ago Bob, an 11-year-old collie, had learned to avoid automobiles, steam rollers, poisoned dog biscuits, etc. But until yesterday nobody had counseled him against washing machines. As a result Bob sits at his home with an aggrieved look on his aristocratic face, nursing a broken bandaged “tail.” Two radio policemen were needed to extricate Bob's tail from the drive shaft of the owner's washing machine, and now we come to the gist of our "tale."
