Farmers Informed Of Soil Conditions Of interest to local farmers is the statement that, although fertilizer situation is still unstable, no acute shortages of essential fertilizer materials, even nitrogen fertilizer, have yet developed to hamper farming operations, according to W. R. Schroeder over, soil specialist in the University of California Agricultural Extension service. The soil specialist recently offered with Farm Adviser Hal Wahlberg in Santa Ana. It stated that nitrate of soda is arriving from Chile in considerable quantity and should be used to make up for shortages of other nitrogen materials. Phosphates and potash are available farmers in normal quantities even though certain fertilizers such as treble superphosphate ammonium phosphates are scarce. Ordinary superphosphate should be available in sufficient quantities to make up for shortages of other phosphate materials. Wahlberg suggested that farmers substitute sulfate of monia and nitrate of soda; nitrogen sources in place of lime ammonia, which has been suddenly withdrawn from the fertility market. Legion Auxiliary Has Annual Elective Unanimously elected president of Anaheim American Legion auxiliary at a meeting Tuesday evening was Mrs. Jean Gadsby who will assume her new duty at the next regular meeting September.

Traffic Delayed By Sunday Storm That August rain which swept down so unexpectedly on Anaheim and the whole of the Southland Sunday afternoon, was far-reaching in its effects, according to word that has come from other Southland areas. Heralded by thunder and lightning, the storm struck first far in in the Mojave desert, where two successive cloudbursts tore out railroads tracks and tied up train service for egit hours. The first cloudburst struck south of Barstow, carrying out sections of both Santa Fe and Union Pacific tracks. Repair crews rushed restoration of the roadbed, but before trains could cross the repaired section, a second torrent of water swept dawn the wash and took away the roadbed. Telephone services were broken off, hay, peach and tomato crops were damaged, and drainage systems overtaxed in the Yucaipa agricultural area. Down in the Imperial Valley, however, the storm was received as a blessing, for it sent the mercury below the 100 degree level for the first time in more than a month. However the Valley received only a light rainfall in comparison with desert, San Gorgonia and San Bernadino mountain areas. Elks, Families Have Annual Picnic Delicious food, prizes and a musical program were highlights of the annual family picnic of Anaheim Elks Lodge No. 1345 last night in Sycamore Grove Park at Fullerton. About 325 Elks and their families were present to enjoy a program in which Don Cram and Buddy Forster were soloists; Roy August 21 is the date for the presentation of a play, "Ready-made Family," in the high school auditorium. A cast of high school students with Director Catherine Heinz will produce the entertainment. Members of the cast are Jane Saulsberry, Jim Ulbreicht, Carl Ulbreicht, Eddie Brunet, Wallie Duffy, Joan Webb, Joan Guss, Oma Reed, Darleen White and Kay Wilson, with Pat Brownfield as property woman and prompter. In order to defray expenses of the performance, cast members will sell cold drinks and peanuts at the baseball games tonight and Saturday night.

PICK A MAN WHO GETS THINGS DONE—NOW Because we Americans are virile, vigorous and resourceful, we thrive on accomplishment. When we have foresight and ability, we don't need to be specially trained for a job. Henry J. Kaiser proved that. Inexperienced in shipbuilding before Hitler invaded Poland, he has since astounded the nation by turning out big cargo ships at amazing speed. It's this ability to get things done that his friends admire in Harry Bell, candidate for sheriff of Orange County at August 25th Primary. He has the foresight and driving ability to attain an objective fast. Sound, forceful and aggressive, he does a job well—and now. As sheriff he would have cleared out that Japanese cache immediately after Pearl Harbor—not seven months later. A resident of this county for 21 years and a student of its law-enforcement problems, he has the proved courage and forceful ability to solve them quickly. Capable and square as they come, he would make a good sheriff. And remember— A GOOD COUNTY DESERVES A GOOD SHERIFF August 13, 1942 Farmers Informed on Soil Conditions The interest to local farmers is statement that, although the soil situation is still uncertain, acute shortages of essential fertilizer materials, even of green fertilizer, have yet been detected to hamper farming operations, according to W. R. Schoonsoil specialist in the University of California Agricultural Extension service. The soil specialist recently consulted with Farm Adviser Harold Hoberg in Santa Ana. It was noted that nitrate of soda is still being from Chile in considerable quantity and should be able to make up for shortages of nitrogen materials. Phosphates and potash are available to farmers in normal quantities, though certain fertilizers such as treble superphosphate and barium phosphates are scarce. Superphosphate should be available in sufficient quanti- tion to make up for shortages of phosphate materials. Hoberg suggested that local farmers substitute sulfate of ammonia and nitrate of soda as green sources in place of liquid manure, which has been suddenly drawn from the fertilizer net. Auxiliary Annual Election An unusually elected president, Annaheim American Legionary at a meeting Tuesday morning was Mrs. Jean Gaddis, who will assume her new duties next regular meeting in member.

Calvin Duncan of the Presbyterian church of Tucson preach here Sunday in the presence of Rev. Stanley Frederick who is on vacation with his wife in Idyllwild until Sept. 13. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE “Soul” is the lesson-sermon object in all Churches of Scientist, on Sunday. The Text, chosen from the readings: “My soul shall be joined to the Lord; it shall rejoice salvation.” Jeremiah said, “Hear the Lord, O ye nation declare it in the isles afar say, He that scattered Israel gather him and keep him shepherd does his flock their soul shall be as a garden.” Selections from Solen Health with Key to the images by Mary Baker include “As the child Israel were guided triumph through the Red Sea . . . the spiritual idea guide desires in their passage sense to Soul.” WESLEY METHODIST Clark Gable Deserts Screen for Army Life It is now Buck Private Clark Gable with a salary of $50 per month as a member of the United States Army and no longer the he-man of the movies with a salary of $3,500 a week. Gable joined Uncle Sam's Army yesterday when he said that he wanted to make no speeches; nor entertain any soldiers. "What I want," he said, "is to be a machine gunner on an airplane. I want to be sent where the going is tough." His principal interest, aside from serving his country, was to get away from Hollywood and the memories of the beautiful blonde wife who died tragically in an airplane crash last February. Thus Clark Gable, the man with the ears and the wide grin, starts a new career, that of defending his country. Absentee Voters May Cast Vote by Mail From James Mussatti, general manager of California State Chamber of Commerce, has come announcement that the State Chamber is cooperating with 17 state-wide organizations in a drive to bring out the maximum vote at the primary election on August 25. One of the major problems confronting the allied groups, according to Mussatti, is that of inducing service men stationed in California camps, to exercise their voting privilege by mail. War industries too have taken many qualified voters far from home. All of these absentee voters will be privileged to cast their ballot by mail providing they make application to their county clerks prior to Thursday, August 20. These ballots may be marked at any time previous to election day but each must be returned to the county clerk from whom it was secured before August 31. Before it is returned, it must be sworn to before a county clerk or his deputy or a notary public. The ballots will be provided by county clerks when the applicant offers necessary information as to his registration and gives his present address as well as his registration address. Signatures must be the same as those used on affidavits of registration. A steam hoist, used until 1900, was the first elevator in the Washington Monument. The Monument is 555 feet, 5½ inches high. —Pathfinder.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE "Soul" is the lesson-sermon subject in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday. The Golden next, chosen from the Psalms, reads: "My soul shall be joyful in the Lord; it shall rejoice in his salvation." Jeremiah said, "Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him and keep him, as a nepherd does his flock . . . and their soul shall be as a watered garden." Selections from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include "As the children of Israel were guided triumphantly through the Red Sea . . . so shall the spiritual idea guide all right desires in their passage from sense to Soul."

One is experience in the District Attorney's office. The other is special ability as a prosecutor. James L. Davis has both. He has had five years experience in the District Attorney's office during former administrations, also two terms as County Attorney (corresponding office) at Billings, Montana. His ability as a prosecutor is recognized throughout Orange County; his record for honesty, justice, and successful law enforcement is well remembered. Not all lawyers make good presecutors. Many are not familiar with criminal law, or have no aptitude for that branch of the law. That's why it is important to know whether the candidate for District Attorney has had experience at the job or is suited to it. Also important to the office of District Attorney is business ability, because the District Attorney holds an executive position that determines whether the operation of his office shall be economical or extravagant. Judgment as well as legal knowledge is required. James L. Davis is well known as a successful business man. For law enforcement with punch and without waste, elect— James L.
