YOUR Sunkist REPORTER When in Doubt—Ring Doorbells! IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts from files of The Gazette Issued a Half Century Quarter Century ago. These files contain the only History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 Years Ago June 19, 1919 According to figures compiled by the state committee on readjustment there were 1874 men from Orange County in various branches of war service. The total number of men from California was 136,418. The county totals include men who were drafted and those who volunteered in the army, navy, marine corps and the national guard. General Borree stated, however, that these figures are considerably less than the number of men who actually entered the service an names are received as the adjutant general’s office of men who entered the service voluntarily and whose names have never been reported. This increase, he said, will probably add 6,000 to the state total. The old wooden building between the Boston Bakery and the new Kistler building, which has served as an office for H.

He had twenty-four hours after being removed to the hospital. Survivors are a daughter, Mrs. G. Keller of Anaheim; a son, E. Winger of Anaheim; two other daughters, Mrs. Alva Rodefer of Fullerton and Mrs. W. A. Hyder of Pomona, and another son, Fred Winger of La Habra.

S. housewives who make lemon pie make it an average of two and two-thirds times a month during the winter, and use an average of two lemons per pie." Overhearing that statement in the Sunkist Advertising Department, your reporter asked skeptically, "How can you know that? You'd have to talk to all the housewives in the country to find that out." But it seems your reporter was wrong. He learned that consumer habits can be determined with uncanny accuracy nowadays—and without ringing all the doorbells in the nation either. The advertising profession has devised a new survey technique. The public opinion polls reported in the newspapers are merely an adaptation of this method. Sunkist was one of the first to adopt it, and has used it for ten years now, to learn about consumer habits regarding citrus fruits. With this new method you need to ring a surprisingly small number of doorbells to learn the facts—but they must be the right doorbells. You call on rich people and poor people in the same proportion as there are rich and poor in the country as a whole. You talk to as many farmers proportionately as there are farmers in the country as a whole—and so on. You make your calls in all parts of the U. S. in proportion to population. This is called getting a "true cross section." Research men find that when the cross section is right they can get an accurate answer for the whole U. S. public by interviewing only 5,000 people! Even so, it's a big job. In making the latest nationwide Sunkist survey, for example, 5006 housewives were interviewed in 113 localities. The interviews took 45 minutes each. But the results are a mine of important information. Has the breakfast glass of orange juice become so universal that it does not need further promotion? Not by a long shot, say the surveys. 90 out of every 100 families now use oranges. But even now only 76 out of every 100 use oranges for juice. And many of these can serve it much more often. This great national figures are considerably less than the number of men who actually entered the service an names are received as the adjutant general's office of men who entered the service voluntarily and whose names have never been reported. This increase, he said, will probably add 6,000 to the state total. The old wooden building between the Boston Bakery and the new Kistler building, which has served as an office for H. P. Tobin and M. E. Beebe, was pulled out last week and taken to the Kistler ranch. The site will soon be occupied by a new structure. Bids for the erection of the new Methodist church have been received and the contract let to the firm of Daniels & Farris of Pasadena, the bid being $54,300. Work of demolishing the old M. E. church is progressing this week. The parsonage building is being moved off onto another lot and as soon as the ground is cleared builders will begin on the bungalow court to be erected by the Anaheim Improvement company. Until the new church is completed and ready for occupancy the Methodist church will hold services in the Masonic Temple. Dr. Truxaw reports scarlet fever cases, of which there have been four, as progressing nicely, with prospects of early recovery. The doctor states, the cases are all of mild form and with careful nursing the little ones ought soon to be well again. Somewhere between thirty and forty boys on bikes, with F. B.

In making the latest nationwide Sunkist survey, for example, 5006 housewives were interviewed in 113 localities. The interviews took 45 minutes each. But the results are a mine of important information. Has the breakfast glass of orange juice become so universal that it does not need further promotion? Not by a long shot, say the surveys. 90 out of every 100 families now use oranges. But even now only 76 out of every 100 use oranges for juice. And many of these can serve it much more often. This great national health habit, developed by Sunkist, still holds big possibilities for future gains. Another case: In 1943, a question arose as to whether or not the amount of Sunkist Lemon advertising devoted to Lemon and Water as a morning health drink and laxative ("first thing on arising") should be increased. A national survey gave the answer, and proved an increase was justified. It showed that previous Lemon and Water advertising had been bringing results. The number of Lemon and Water users had doubled from 1939 to 1942. In dozens of ways this modern survey technique has helped to guide Sunkist promotion into the most productive channels, prevented mistakes, assured the Exchange member of the biggest possible return from his advertising investment. It's this careful, responsible way of serving the grower—not only in Research and Advertising, but in the fields of Supply, Field Service, By-products, Dealer Service, Legal Service. Traffic and Sales—that has made the California Fruit Growers Exchange an outstanding farm cooperative. Isn't it time that you, too, availed yourself of its benefits?
