City Will Raise $75,427.66 of Which $80,164.93 Goes to Gen'l Fund
Anaheim city council last night formally fixed the 1922 tax levy at $1.45.
Altho the new bond issue, $100,000 for park last fall and $160,000 for city hall, water and sewer mains and fire truck voted two months ago, have greatly increased the amount that must be set aside for interest and bond retirement; the greatly increased assessed valuation has made it possible for the council to proceed without advancing the tax rate above last year.
Anaheim will raise $75,427.66 with the levy, of which $80,164.93 goes into the general fund, $7500 into the library and $38,000 into bond retirement and interest.
The city will have considerable other revenue from the sale of oranges from sewer farm, rental from Stanton farm, profit on light and water, business licenses, etc. With this income it hoped the city will

HUSBAND RESENTS SPIRITS RULING
NEW YORK, Sept. 9—For the first six years of married life everything went fine in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene F. Lowe, according to the husband. Then Mrs. Lowe took up Spiritualism. That was all right. But when she got to consulting a spirit called Red Feather and another she knew as Little Flower about household affairs, the jinx was on.
First thing, they told her to make him wash all the dishes, he said. Then he lost his temper over too many household tasks, and the same spirits advised her to leave him. She obeyed once more and this time he decided to see what a material court would say for his side of the case.
So Judge Wasservogel was asked to take the spirits in consideration in deciding a separation suit.

3000 CARS TO MOVE AT BIG PRICES
Bulk of Valencia Crop Remaining In Calif. Is In Orange-co
Of the 4200 cars of valencias it is estimated still remain in Calif., Orange-co has 3000 cars, an authority on packing conditions announced today.
The basis of estimate is 450 boxes to the car.
This same authority estimates that Orange county's orange crop this year will bring in $13,500,000, estimating the average price at $3.75 f.o. b. shipping point.
Shipments have been light the last 60 days but they are expected to get under full swing within the next week in view of the advancing market.
Last year's citrus crop netted the county between 16 and 17 millions, most of which was from oranges, the lemon market being decidedly weak practically all the year. This year, however, lemons have shown good

ORANGE county's orange crop this year will bring in $13,500,000, estimating the average price at $3.75 f.o. b. shipping point.
Shipments have been light the last 60 days but they are expected to get under full swing within the next week in view of the advancing market.
Last year's citrus crop netted the county between 16 and 17 millions, most of which was from oranges, the lemon market being decidedly weak practically all the year. This year, however, lemons have shown good returns most of the time. Just what the lemon returns this year will push the annual citrus total to, the Plain Dealer authority could not estimate.
Valencias will continue to move until Nov. 3 to 7, being cleaned out just about the time the first Florida start to market early in November.
With the comparatively large quantity of Orange-co-valencias yet on the trees, more than the usual number of local growers are expected to enjoy the tip-top prices of the year.

Clayes, principal of the local high school, said this morning. He says he expects only two or three at the most to take advantage of it.

REPAIR HOUSES FOR PACKING WALNUTS
Orange county walnut packing houses are taking on a business like appearance as the opening day of the season draws near. The carpenters, electricians, machinists and other mechanics, who have been preparing the plants for the season's run, are beginning to collect up their tools, while crop reports are drifting in from the groves.
Forecasts of this season's walnut crop have caused some of the houses to practically double their capacity.

COUNTY BEAN CROP
WILL HIT 1,000,000
One million dollars in beans are flowing in Orange-co banks at the rate of $5000 to $10,000 a day.
This conclusion is justified by the present price of beans and the estimated total of the crop in sacks.
It is estimated that Orange-co will produce 125,000 sacks of black eye beans and about the same total of common limas. Blackeyes, according to information, are selling at a steady four cents.
Limas are now at 5½ cents.
Taking these conservative estimates, the total crop money coming to Orange-co bean growers is $1,-187,500.
And most of this will be September and October money.
Bean growers of Orange-co get their crop on the market about month ahead of any other county in California. For this reason they are able to command a good price, and not suffer by an overloaded mtrket.
