Damage to Farm Lands Estimated Approximately 40,000 Acres In County Harmed by Flood Waters Approximately 40,000 acres of Orange county agriculture land suffered varied amounts of damage in the flood of two weeks ago. Complete destruction of farm property, however, was limited to slightly more than 600 acres. The estimate of damage to agricultural land was made to the county board of supervisors Friday by the county agricultural commissioner's office. Offsetting to a considerable extent the damage done to ranches was the benefit gained by other property owners from silt washed onto their lands. Soil erosion proved to be considerably less than first indicated, the report said. 3000 Trees Lost A total of 3000 citrus trees were destroyed by the flood waters. Loss to the citrus crop in the county was estimated between two and four per cent. Only 51 acres of citrus land was completely destroyed. Acreage which was slightly damaged brought the total to 9231 acres. No walnut acreage was completely destroyed and damage to avocado plantings was almost negligible. A total of 420 acres of alfalfa grain and truck crops was estimated to be totally destroyed. The report said that additional damage may result from various diseases. Immediate cleaning and destroying of debris on farm lands Rites Held Tuesday for Mary A. Heath Funeral services were conducted Tuesday afternoon from the Hilgenfeld funeral home for Mrs. Mary A. Davies Heath, 75, who died Saturday evening at her home, 120 N. Clementine street. Remains were sent to Idaho Falls, Idaho, for interment. Mrs. Heath had lived in Anaheim about two months. She is survived by three daughters: Mrs. Albert Catmull of Burley, Idaho; Mrs. L. A. Danbacker and Mrs. Charles R. Hoakanson, both of Anaheim; two sons, Grover Heath and Albert V. Heath, both of Idaho Falls; four sisters, two brothers and 12 grandchildren. She was a native of Ulah and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
