SUPERVISORS PASS NEW TRUCKING ACT Orange-co supervisors have passed a trucking ordinance carrying the terms, with one addition, agreed upon by representatives of Orange Riverside and San Bernardino-cos a month ago. The ordinance is now passed by the three counties, and will be in effect in this county at the end of 30 days from yesterday. Following the presentation of the ordinance to the supervisors of this county, delegations of truckmen and truck dealers appeared before the supervisors here and entered vigorous protest against some of the provisions of the ordinance, more particularly against a load limit of 36,000 pounds for a truck and two trailers. The truckmen wanted the maximum raised several thousand pounds. In general, the truckmen agreed that load limits were necessary and advisable. The one change made in the ordinance as requested by the truckmen was fixing a load limit of 30,000 for six-wheeled vehicles. The ordinance specifies that no motor or other vehicle shall be operated or moved upon or over any public highway in the county the weight of which resting upon surface of the highway, road or bridge, exceeds 700 pounds upon any inch of width of tire, when the vehicle is equipped with pneumatic tires, nor more than 650 pounds upon any inch of width of tire when the vehicle is equipped with solid rubber tires. MONEY FLOWS INTO HANDS OF GROWERS Thousands of dollars of real money will begin flowing into the hands of best growers the end of next week in payments for beets delivered to the factories so far this year. DRIVE NEW NASH FROM EAST TO S. A. Driving a new Nash touring car from Detroit to Santa Ana in less than three weeks, with stopovers at various points for two and three days at a time, negotiating dangerous river crossings and traveling fierce mountain roads out of Yellowstone park, Norman Storkel was in Anaheim visiting at the May Motor company day with his car little the worse for the trip and declaring the Nash to be the best and most dependable car he ever "pulled the reins over." Accompanying the traveler on the trip were his wife and their son and daughter, Norman, Jr., and Mildred, and Mrs. R. M. Schultze, mother of Mrs. Storkel. The visitors are old friends and acquaintances of Mrs. H. P. Holmes and are visiting the latter and her husband at 2006 North Broadway, Santa Ana, for a time. The party are in Santa Ana to pass the winter and perhaps to locate permanently. "My car had been driven only 48 miles when we left home," said Storkel, in telling the story of his trip at the office of the May Motor company, local agent for the Nash. "We bought our camp equipment at Chicago and then struck out for California. The equipment weighs about 400 pounds. We traveled the Lincoln highway from Chicago to Omaha and from that point to Lincoln over the Omaha, Lincoln and Denver road, the latter being a very good dirt road. We struck the Lincoln highway again at Kearney, Neb., and found it very rough and choppy from there to North Platte, Neb. They road from this place to Cheyenne, Myo., is like a boulevard and we made the distance of 390 miles in one day's drive. "From here we went into Yellowstone park over the Lost Cabin trail. Coming out of the Yellowstone, we encountered difficulty in negotiating the road, following the flashing of a hill alongside of the road. The road was covered with loosened earth and when we arrived at the point, a car just ahead of us stuck." MONEY FLOWS INTO HANDS OF GROWERS Thousands of dollars of real money will begin flowing into the hands of beet growers the end of next week in payments for beets delivered to the factories so far this season. The factories will begin mailing out checks Friday of next week it is expected, Sept. 15 having been decided as the date for mailing the first checks according to reports. While the amount of the initial payment has not been definitely announced the farmers are expecting checks amounting to $6 per ton. It is understood the factories will base their initial payment on 4½-cent sugar. The factory management will play safe this season and not overpay, as they did last year, when they based initial payments on 12-cent sugar. As a result they had to ask growers to refund portions of the first payment, the selling price by factors not being as high as it was expected it would be. Considerable confusion and dissatisfaction among the farmers resulted, to say nothing of the disappointment incurred. It is estimated that about 50 pct. of this season's crop has been harvested. The yield and quality of the beets is good, the quality being about normal. The beets will run between 17 and 18 pct. sugar, being from one to two pct. higher than last season. Seventeen pct. is normal, the average of last season being 16 pct., or one pct. below. DOG SCARES THIEVES; JEWELS NOT TAKEN LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7 — Attacked furiously by a large dog, bandits who entered the palatial residence of C. B. Peterson, 1420 North Central avenue, Casa Verdugo, an exclusive residential district, abandoned several thousand dollars worth of jewelry they had gathered and piled on the floor early today and fled. IMPORTANT BUREAU MEETING FRIDAY One of the most important monthly meetings of the Orange Co. Farm Bureau Directorate will be held Friday, at 1:30 p.m., to elect a secretary-manager for the organization. The committee appointed for the purpose of recommending a candidate for the office will be ready to report. The committee consists of Murray Horne, Yorba Linda, chairman; E. E. Campbell, Orange, and I. L. Merchant, Tustin. Other matters that will be considered are: Farm bureau officials must be present at all meetings. We struck the Lincoln highway again at Kearney, Neb., and found it very rough and choppy from there to North Platte, Neb. They road from this place to Cheyenne, Myo., is like a boulevard and we made the distance of 390 miles in one day's drive. "From here we went into Yellowstone park over the Lost Cabin trail. Coming out of the Yellowstone, we encountered difficulty in negotiating the road, following the flashing of a hill alongside of the road. The road was covered with loosened earth and when we arrived at the point, a car just ahead of us was stuck. We helped to push it through. We shot the Nash through on second gear without difficulty. Other machines following failed to get through without help." Flerce roads, and over mountains at that, held us down to 360 miles travel in the following three days. The Nash here again demonstrated its dependability. At St. George, Nev., we ran into a washout where seven machines were 'stalled' and we were warned not to attempt to go through the mud and sand. Having confidence in my car, I threw the gears into second and hit the washout, while drivers stood in amazement at my daring. It was easy and the Nash never wavered as it plowed through the mud and sand." Strokel drove 3850 miles and averaged fourteen miles to the gallon of gasoline, according to his records. I had no trouble whatever, not even having to make an adjustment or change a spark plug, and that's some record for a brand new machine." declared Storkel. AUTO OWNERSHIP SHOWS BIG INCREASE Less than 75 per cent of Orange-co.'s automobile owning family of 16,007 pays a county assessment property tax. One in every five of Orange-co.'s residents, whose names appear on state vehicle licenses, owns nothing more than his automobile. And that automobile is of such low value that it is below the minimum assessment figure, deducting the legal allowance of $100. Orange co.'s is an ex-service man with assessed property valuation of less than $5000. These facts appear in the figures of James Sleeper, county assessor who is completing the compilation and tabulation of the annual county assessment roll. Sleeper said today: "Though the figures are not yet complete, I am able to estimate that between 11,500 and 12,000 automobiles will be assessed by the county this year. Last year 2000 cars were assessed. This is an increase this year of about 2,000." SANTA ANA MAN IS NAT'L GUARD MAJOR Arthur E. Koepsel, captain of Co.

Why are prompt and accurate figure records so important in retail business? Because in successful retailing time is everything. You can’t check up your business figures once a month and expect to “get by.” Even once a week is taking a big chance. You ought to know every day. You must buy today, sell tomorrow; take a small profit and turn it over quickly. You can’t carry unsalable stock, long credits, slow collections, or any unnecessary expense in retail business as it is run today.
