ORANGE-CO SIXTH IN STATE'S WEALTH All the tenth in population, Orange county stands sixth in wealth of all California counties, judging from its financial transactions for the year ending June 30, 1921 according to the report of the state controller by William G. Jerome, county auditor. The total payments were $4,567,-867.72. Reviewing the annual report, Jerome said: "Orange-co's tax rate is lower than that of most California counties surpassed to the county's richness collected total higher. Collections on the general county tax last year for instance, amounted to $845,843.15." "The county's bonded indebtedness was reduced to $1,528,000. The sum of $152,931.25, combined interest and principal was paid on this account last year. Orange-co's bonded indebtedness is limited by law to $5,575,000." "School bonds issued during the year totaled $657,000, making the total outstanding $1,622,000. Interest and principal paid last year on this account totaled $184,778.30." "In all, the county redeemed bonded indebtedness to the amount of $338,709.65." "The county paid to the state through the vehicle act $122,250, but received from the state for the support of county activities $246,976.60. County taxpayers should be interested in this item... It means that the difference in their favor between taxes paid directly into the state treasury is compared with the amount received from that treasury was $113,726.60." "This is the result of Amendment No. 1, state constitution whereby the public service corporations pay the difference." County collections from Santa Ana totaled $148,830.59, and from Fullerton $185,882.27. The county paid $16,164.05 for the maintenance of the county hospital and farm and for the care of inmates $26,678.14. The care of Mrs. J. A.

BLACKEYE HARVEST GETS UNDERWAY Blackeye beans are being harvested and it is expected that the bulk of the crop will be out of the fields before the end of September. The crop is good, according to various ranchers, though somewhat below early promises. Blackeye beans were planted over a large acreage this year; the growers said, due to drought expectancy.

BLACKEYE HARVEST GETS UNDERWAY Blackeye beans are being harvested and it is expected that the bulk of the crop will be out of the fields before the end of September. The crop is good, according to various ranchers, though somewhat below early promises. Blackeye beans were planted over a large acreage this year, the growers said, due to drought expectancy. For this reason Orange-co probably has the largest blackeye bean crop in its history. Considerable lima land was planted to blackeyes. According to indication, the limas will be of high quality. Harvesting the limas will begin shortly. Charles E. Morris, bean broker, estimates Orange-co's blackeye crop between 100,000 and 125,000 sacks. He figures on 75,000 to 100,000 sacks from the Irvine ranch. Southern California should total about 300,000 sacks of blackeyes; while the state total probably will run to 450,000 to 600,000 sacks, according to his estimates. Limas will produce approximately 150,000 sacks in the county. Morris thinks, though he said they are difficult to estimate under present conditions. Morris says that from Modesta the story is sent out that almost enough blackeye beans will be raised in Stanblaus-co this year to supply the demand of the entire United States. Northern authorities say that the total annual consumption in America of the blackeye bean, which is really a pen and is so known on Eastern markets, does not normally exceed 300,000 100-pound sacks and with continued favorable conditions Stanblaus-co will produce 220,000 sacks this season. The estimate for the entire state is 600,000 sacks, and with a small acreage in Texas it is readily seen that the production will exceed demand more than twice over, they declare. —If it's from Witman's it's good!

The lines, while deviating to a great extent from those generally GREAT GROWTH FOR COUNTY OBSERVED "You have a wonderful county. Orange-co people ought to be opportunists. In the past ten years the value of your crops have increased as high as 400 to 700 per cent, according to government records, ranking you as fourth in the state of California. In ten years more, with still further intensive cultivation of your rich and productive soil, you should take second position, or first, if you can shove Los Angeles county out of the way—and you might do that." Here is the comment on Orange county of C. S. Hutton, one of the keen and discerning young business men of Los Angeles, head of the C. S. Hutson Lithograph company of that city. He made the observation at the meeting of the Santa Ana Klwanis club, during an instructive discussion of general business conditions. That he has been studying agricultural reports as made by the government, was conclusively shown in quotation of figures on Orange-co. He touched on Orange-co following discussion of crops of the United States. "We're discussing crops, your own prosperity is worthy of discussion," said the speaker. "Your prosperity should make opportunists of every resident of your county. Government statistics show that your population has increased 100 per cent in the last ten years, the value of your grain crops 400 per cent, fruit and nut crops over 700 per cent, and all farm properties more than 500 per cent. In addition oyru banks have resources of about $500 for every man, woman and child residing in the country. This is a wonderful comparison. Therefore, I suggest that you continue these increases for the next ten years and the eyes of the agricultural world will turn your way." Willis Booth, former resident of Los Angeles, and now vice-president of the Guaranty Trust company in New York, one of the largest banking institutions in the world, with branches scattered everywhere, told him," said Hutson,"that only the truth is told when it is said that Southern California is one bright spot on...

Lusk, and she states that she is becoming more thorny convinced each day that her selection has been a wise one. The lines, while deviating to a great extent from those generally accepted by the designers of enclosed coaches, are distinctive and most pleasing in appearance. The color scheme of the exterior as well as those of the interior fittings accentuate the idea of individuality. The coach is finished in deep maroon with the running board shields wind scope, chassis and radiator in black, while the wheels harmonize with the body, having black hubs and rims. The rich upholstery and fittings of the interior harmonize in color with the exterior. Among the special features are adjustable door glasses equipped with automatic regulators, permanent rear quarter glasses. Compartment at back of driver's seat. Luggage space under fear deck. Linoleum-trimmed toe and floor boards covered with heavy velvet carpet. Natural mahogany instrument board and moldings. Dome and corner lights. Automatic door switch operating done light. Perfection floor heater. Double door handles with Sargent locks. Waltham eight-day clock. Silk window shades to match upholstery. Rubber step and floor pads. OH, VERY WELL!

WITMAN, Eyesight Specialist. MAKE CHECK UPON UNCLE SAM'S CENTS Uncle Sam is in Santa Ana counting pennies. He is counting the choc malt pennies, the movie pennies, the drug store pennies, and all the other pennies that come under the head of sales tax, known as war tax. Rt. E. Ardley, division chief of the U.S. Internal Revenue department, is Uncle Sam's official proxy in this part of the country and speaking for the venerable uncle, he said: "We are auditing, or making a general check of sales taxes collected. Orange county, so far as we have been able to ascertain shows very few discrepancies. Books seem to be in the best shape. "Can't say the same for other sections of the country. In some places the government is finding large discrepancies. The most flagrant cases will be prosecuted in all probability." The general check-up was called for by order from Washington. The check was limited to eight weeks. It will end Sept. 2. We expect to complete our work in Orange county this week. Araley and his deputies are staying at St. Ann's Inn. WILL BUILD HOUSE ON LA HABRA LOT LA HABRA, Aug. 26 — George Cramer, formerly of La Habra and now living in Fullerton, and an employee of the Standard Oil company, has purchased a lot in La Habra park square. It is quite probable that Cramer will be the first of those who have bought lots from the Woman's club, to begin the erection of a home. He plans to build a fine hollow tile residence that will be a departure from the general style of building that has prevailed in La Habra. Miller says-- If you come here you come to the right place to get the best in fresh and cured sources of about $500 for every man, woman and child residing in the countryside. This is a wonderful comparison. Therefore I suggest that you continue these increases for the next ten years and the eyes of the agricultural world will turn your way. Willis Booth, former resident of Los Angeles, and now vice-president of the Guaranty Trust company in New York, one of the largest banking institutions in the world, with branches scattered everywhere, told he said Hudson, "that only the truth is told when it is said that Southern California is one bright spot on the business map of the world. He advanced a new idea for that prosperity, and one that is true, and one which I had thought of. It was that one of the greatest importations of the Southland is money. Wohen you think of it, that tells the story." Business men should study, for study develops skill," he declared. No man succeeds by his own experiences. He should get the viewpoint of others in his line. He can then handle his own problems in a better way. The reason many men fail is lack of study. It is claimed that over 95 per cent of the business men use less than two hours per week in study. The world today is rewarding Miller says-- If you come here you come to the right place to get the best in fresh and cured meats and poultry. He also solieits your trade with the same argument.
