Orange Co-Op Membership Sets Record (Continued from page 1) Anaheim. It was to this medium that Bosch credited much of the added returns realized by the association. The plant — processing subsidiary of Mutual Orange Distributors — paid an average of 50 cents per pound for fruit solids. Bosch also lauded the efficiency of the M. O. D. fresh fruit sales department which, he said accomplished a majority of sales through private channels and kept a constant surveillance over all cars shipped until they were sold. Concentrate The association manager also had high praise for the marketing organization's aggressive stand on entering the processing field of frozen concentrates. "Processed fruit," said Bosch, "should no longer be looked upon as by-products, especially the new and modern high-vacuum low temperature product now being processed at the Anaheim plant." "It has been definitely established that fruit which formerly, because of size or grade, was considered only as by-product quality can now be expected to realize a return considerably above the cost of processing and selling, and may in many cases return a considerably greater amount of money to the grower in processed form than the same fruit could possibly have returned after being packed and shipped," Bosch pointed out. Freeze Serious It is still a little early to determine the actual extent of frost damage incurred during the past few months, Bosch reported. But "from our observations to date it shrinkage is due to frost or crop and market reverses and how much to inroads made by subdivisions to accommodate population growth, has not been estimated. In many cases, no doubt, the removal of an orchard resulted from a combination of these factors. The owner subdivided, or sold for subdividing, because of reverses. One interesting item is that the new Santa Ana freeway right-of-way already has eliminated about 20 acres of citrus groves in the city of Santa Ana alone. The 12,000 decrease, Commissioner Tubbs points out, does not bring the census completely up to date. It does not include a number of 40-acre and 60-acre tracts now being subdivided. A study of the data shows that the average size of an orange grove in Orange county is 11½ acres. San Juan Capistrano district groves run to the largest average size in the county, 18 acres. In the Irvine area, the average is 17 acres. Northern Orange county's average is 14 acres. Around Orange and El Modena-Villa Park-Olive, the average is 8.6 acres. Districts like Costa Mesa average five-acre groves. Life Sentence To Sailor for Store Robbery Life imprisonment, with possibility of parole, was meted out Tuesday as a sentence to Timothy Calvin Matheney, 24, sailor, convicted of complicity in four of five felony counts involved in robbery of the All-American market at Newport Beach last May 16. Meanwhile, his co-defendant, Claud C. To Sailor for Store Robbery Life imprisonment, with possibility of parole, was meted out Tuesday as a sentence to Timothy Calvin Matheney, 24, sailor, convicted of complicity in four of five felony counts involved in robbery of the All-American market at Newport Beach last May 16. Meanwhile, his co-defendant, Claud C. Newton, 45, of Chula Vista, convicted on all five counts, and handling his own defense, still maneuvered to upset the jury verdicts. He was denied a motion for a new trial by Superior Judge Kenneth E. Morrison, then given until Feb. 28, before being sentenced, to produce evidence in support of his contention that the jury reached its verdicts by chance. The four sentences given Matheney will run concurrently and also will be concurrent with a sentence of five years to life which Matheney and Newton recently received in Lynwood for armed robbery of a market. The four counts here were kidnapping, life with possibility of parole; first degree robbery, five years to life; first degree burglary, the same; grand theft, one to ten years. He was acquitted of a charge of assault with intent to commit murder. Newton was convicted of that offense, along with the four other counts. The penalty is 1 to 14 years. Female Jury The jury, composed entirely of women, recommended life terms for both defendants, but with "possibility for parole" for Matheney, who had been picked up by the older Newton, who has prison records in both Texas and Okla- County Orchard Industry Drops 12,000 Acres (Continued from Page 1) once-great industry. Now you can cross out the first two figures. There are only 30 acres of walnuts reported for 1949. The apricot industry, as a matter of fact, rallied faintly. Not so long ago there were just five acres of commercial apricots left. County Orchard Industry Drops 12,000 Acres (Continued from Page 1) once-great industry. Now you can cross out the first two figures. There are only 30 acres of walnuts reported for 1949. The apricot industry, as a matter of fact, rallied faintly. Not so long ago there were just five acres of commercial apricots left. The 1948 report showed 19 acres. But the 1949 report will show 10 acres bearing and 4.6 acres non-bearing, so apricots are on down grade again. The only gain made in orchard acreage for 1949 was the increase of 27 acres of olives, from 72 to 99 acres, if that interests anybody. Avocados held their ground pretty well, decreasing only 21 acres, from 2,328 to 2,307. Total citrus acreage slipped from 76,942 to 67,392, the 1949 total having extra significance in the fact that a relatively small portion is non-bearing. So there isn't much new stuff coming on. Valencias fell off from 67,263 acres to 60,923, navels dropped from 1,121 to 730, lemons from 7,952 to 5,485, and grapefruit from 606 to 254. Other figures: persimmons dropped from 247 to 169, plums from 70 to 12, peaches and nectarines from 72 to 36, pears from 8 to 4, grapes from 73 to 56. The total for all orchard acreage shows a drop from 82,161 to 70,120. Eliminate Marginal Groves The decrease in acreage may not bring a corresponding decrease in crop income in ordinary years, considering that much of the acreage eliminated was marginal stuff, although frost treated good and marginal groves alike these last two winters. How much of the orchard Anaheim Gazette since 1870. hoana, having served a total of 26 years, for murder in Oklahoma and burglary in Texas, according to findings of the local jury. At the Newport Beach market last May, they assaulted Dewey C. Peck, a market attache, and locked him in a refrigerator, while trying to force him to open the safe, which he was unable to do. When an assistant manager arrived, they obtained $2,200 of store funds. Ferdinand Giese Dies Suddenly Ferdinand Giese, 86, of 10571 South Euclid avenue, Anaheim, died Saturday, February 11, in St. Joseph hospital after a brief illness. Mr. Giese was born in Berlin, Germany, and had lived in Anaheim for sixty years. He was a retired rancher. He is survived by his daughter, Mrs. Aubrey R. Van Verst of Anaheim and five sons, Otto of San Pedro, Harry of Big Bear, William of Wilmington, Fred of Nevada and Captain Oscar Giese stationed at Fort Sheridan, Illinois. Also surviving are nine grandchildren and six grandchildren. FOOD CLUB CHERRIES RED SOUR-PITTED NO. 2 CAN 28¢ PILLSBURY PIE CRUST MIX 9 OZ.

Trailer Owners Must Pay Tax SACRAMENTO, (WNS) - Owners of house trailers, which are located in trailer camps, must pay a trailer license fee before March 15, or pay local personal property taxes as well.

Henderson, state director of motor vehicles, notified trailer owners to this effect today, stating the law requires payment for current license plates, whether or not it is operated on the highways of the state. The motor vehicle director said no penalties will be assessed for late registration of a house trailer, provided it has not been operated on the highways.
