Sales of Orange Gain Last Week Delivered Price Also Shows Improvement Over 1939, Exchange Reports Sunkist carlot sales of oranges last week were 13 per cent more than the comparable week in 1939, while the aggregate f.o.b. return was 16 per cent greater, reports the sales department of the California Fruit Growers Exchange. Competition from deciduous fruits and melons was lighter in the southern markets, but heavier in the northern markets of the United States. Peaches were particularly competitive, probably reaching the season's peak. Although heavy movement is just beginning from Michigan and Ontario, Canada, the supply is expected to decrease after this week. Many districts report an unusually premature crop with an earlier clean-up than in most years. "The return of great numbers of people from vacations, opening of schools, and a decrease in competition from deciduous fruit should bring about a stronger market in early September," said L. H. Wohlwend, Sunkist's orange sales manager. "September orange sales last year averaged 44 cents per box higher than August sales, without any falling off in volume." The U. S. Department of Agriculture estimates the apple crop in the United States, as of August 1, of people from vacations, opening of schools, and a decrease in competition from deciduous fruit should bring about a stronger market in early September," said L. H. Wohlwend, Sunkist's orange sales manager. "September orange sales last year averaged 44 cents per box higher than August sales, without any falling off in volume." The U. S. Department of Agriculture estimates the apple crop in the United States, as of August 1, to be 116,721,000 bushels, compared to 143,085,000 bushels in 1939, and the five-year average of 121,-755,000 bushels. The estimated apple crop in states east of the Rocky Mountains is 27 per cent smaller than a year ago. In the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast states production is estimated at two per cent greater than the crop in 1939. The volume of lemon sales was lighter with a lower market due principally to adverse weather conditions in eastern cities. Irvine Park Trailer Ban is Slated Soon Rumors that the county supervisors plan to close Irvine Park to the public, which have lately caused considerable concern on the part of the general public, were laid at rest last week end by Supervisor Harry D. Riley. There's nothing to it, Riley said. What the board does plan to do in the near future, according to Riley, is to close the park to trailer camping. Such action, he explained, will be due to the practice of campers entering the park with their trailers and remaining there several months. An average speed of seven miles an hour is attained by the blood of our bodies. Dr. Cowles Dies; Funeral Saturday Dr. Danforth C. Cowles, 66, prominent Fullerton physician died suddenly yesterday at his home from a heart attack. He had lived in Fullerton for 22 years and was active in fraternal and civic organizations. Funeral services will be conducted Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Melrose Abbey mausoleum, followed by entombment there. Rev. George F. Tinsley of Georgetown, Ky., formerly pastor of the First Christian church of Fullerton, will officiate. Dr. Cowles is survived by his widow, Anna H. Cowles, and one son, Danforth C. Cowles, Jr., recent candidate for the Democratic nomination to the state senate. Bachelors cannot be employed by the city of Scottsville, Ky. There are four tons of steel in the average home in the United States. "The Ideal Church" Is Sermon Subject Rev. Earl R. Berg, minister of the Calvary Baptist church, has chosen "The Ideal Church" as the subject for his sermon at the 6 o'clock worship Sunday morning. The Ordinance of the Lord's Supper will be observed following this service. The church will participate in the union services at the city park at 6 o'clock in the evening.

Citrus Returns for Year Ahead of 1939 (Continued from Page 1) er of the season than was available at the same time last year, the exchange reported. Virtually all of this will go to domestic markets. The estimated tree crop at the start of the season was 52,000 cars, or a gain of more than 600 cars over last year's figure of 45,832 cars. Clubwoman: Wagewoman: Homewoman----- Clubwoman: Wagewoman: Homewoman------ She's the same person, when she goes to a store. At her club meeting, it's kind of fun to hear some radical lecturer "prove" that most manufacturers are slickers, most store cheese is chalk, and most advertising is ballyhoo. But watch the clubwoman when she starts buying. She wants her money's worth and she gets it. How? By first consulting the advertisements. Then by choosing the products she knows—the trade-marked, nationally advertised products that have been on the market for years. Those trade-marked, advertised articles are the ARISTOCRATS among all the things she buys—or that any of us can buy.

Center St. Children’s Court In County Debut Domestic Relations Actions To Be Heard in Court of Conciliation Superior Judge Franklin G. West late last week presided over the first case to come before the newly-established Children’s Court of Conciliation when the divorce action between Mrs. Belle Parr and Ross Parr of Huntington Beach was heard. Cases in the new court, established as the result of legislation passed by the last session of the legislature, are heard with the same privacy that marks juvenile court cases. The new law makes it mandatory to establish such a court in each county. Domestic relations cases, in which childern are involved, may be referred to the new court. Powers of the new court permit it to seek to effect reconciliation between wives and husbands in divorce litigation, with much more informality than is allowed by the set procedure of the ordinary court. Other matters affecting the welfare of children in the case are also open to wider latitude of adjustment by court.
