XXV—NO. 91 COUNTY 15TH IN NATURAL PRODUCTS According to Size, Believed to Be Wealthiest in Entire United States Orange-co stands 15th among all counties of the U.S. in value of crops and live-stock products and eleventh in value of crops alone, according to announcement of the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, on data from the 1920 census of agriculture for the nation. Los Angeles-co ranked first among all counties in combined value of crops and live-stock, the total being $71,579,589. The value of Los Angeles-co crops was $61,864,479, which was greater than the combined value of crops and live-stock products in any other county. The value of Orange-co's crops and live-stock products is $26,635,748 and value of crops alone is $25,572,-032. Principal products are listed as oranges, walnuts, lemons, sugar beets. It is believed almost certain that Orange-co, considering its area in square miles and its population, leads all the counties of the United States. Los Angeles-co has an area nearly four times as great as Orange, and shows less than three times the wealth from this production. San Bernardino-co., the largest in the United States, has a highly cultivated area even smaller than that of Orange-co., although in extent it is Roy Gardner's Bail Is Set at $100,000 PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 17. — Roy Gardner, "bandit of bandits" will probably be taken to Leavenworth, Kans., today, to serve out the unexpired balance of his term for mail robberies.

For the same reason the three women still remaining in the jury when court reconvened this morning may not be given the chance to sit in judgment of the corpulent comedian who is accused of manslaughter in connection with the death of Virginia Rappe, beauty of the soreen, who died following a "drinking party" in his rooms at the St. Francis hotel. WIFE WINS DECREE; DEFENDANT ABSENT Louise Braman Clark was today in possession of her maiden name, Louise Braman, and an interlocutory decree of divorce from Roy B. Clark, a barber of Polluton, who failed to appear at the trial of the case, before Judge Williams. The Studebaker automobile, possession of which lomed as the chief issue in the trial, was not injected into the hearing a property settlement having been made out of court just in advance of the trial. With that out of the way, the defendant made no effort to contest the suit of Mrs. Clark. Evidence was taken in the case and the court granted a decree as sought. Mrs. Clark was her own chief witness and proved more than willing to relate her domestic difficulties to the court. The court finally interrupted her testimony with an order for her attorneys to call their next witness. FRANZ REALTY CO.

There is something tremendously inspiring in such a scene, especially in view of the things men are wont to say about us not having group solidarity and all that. The annual lunch-on the Vassar college alumnae has just been held here and they came from all over—well, from all over the world, rather than the country. It was particularly interesting in view of the fact that they came knowing the necessity of getting out and doing plain hustling for the $3,000,000 Vassar is working for.

The roar could be plainly heard in Anaheim. The tanks destroyed belonged to the Shell Oil Co., and to the United Oil Co., two belonging to the first concern and the third to the second corporation. The derrick consumed by the flames was on property owned by a syndicate headed by Dr. H. R. Smith of Los Angeles. The damage by the fire was given this morning by an official of the Shell company as between $200,000 and $250,000. Much of this loss was suffered in the destruction of equipment. Corps of fire fighters were organized today to oppose the blaze with mud and steam. Scores of people rushed to the place to view the blazing well, flames from which leaped 100 feet into the air, illuminating the country in the vicinity. Dr. Smith was unaware the derrick on his property had been burned until he was so informed by a reporter. The fire broke out at 12:20 o'clock this morning with a terrific explosion like a clap of thunder, according to Long Beach residents. Gas had been flowing from the well at the rate it was estimated, of 100,000,000 cable feet a day before the well caught fire. It was believed the fire was started by rocks which, thrown up by the pressure of the gas, struck the pipes, causing sparks to fly. SELL 13 CHEVROLETTS WITHIN HALF MONTH Things are up and coming at the local salesrooms of the Chevrolet, 306 North Los Angeles street, thirteen sales having been reported since the first of the month. "Bill" Houser, whose name is synonymous with that of Chevrolet, and John D. Van Buren, who has been with the Taggert organization in Fullerton for several months, have taken charge of the local establishment and the number of sales that they have made only goes to prove that the Chevrolet is a good car and they know how to sell it. Houser has represented Chevrolet in Northern Orange county for the past six years, and none know better than he how to serve the local motorists, and he is making it his personal duty to see that the requirements of all Chevrolet owners are answered right here in Anaheim: Van Buren originally hails from the Great Lakes region and his twelve years' experience in the automobile game is being used to a good advantage here.

Saul Baiserman, of Manhattan an immigrant of seven years' residence. DRUG CLERKS GLAD NEW YORK, Nov. 17. — There is another group of mere men who are vitally interested in the details of women's fashions. The drug clerks who sell postage stamps. Veils are the particular source of their grievances, and now tight veils are pretty well out of style and the drug clerks rejoice. "Veiled women all ask us to lick their stamps," one druggist told me. "I almost put up a sign against it last season, saying 'Please lick your own stamps,' but now they don't seem to wear them and we've settled down to peace in the store." AT ANAHEIM SANITARIUM O. A.

POOR BUT AMBITIOUS IMMIGRANT MODELS NEW YORK, Nov. 17. — Ambition does not die just because it is hedged about by tall tenements and noisy city streets. Saul Baiserman, of Manhattan an immigrant of seven years, residence on this side of the Atlantic, has been working for six years on a vision of marble and brome in which he typifies America. He came from the Russian steppes with a rudimentary interest in modelling but he had no idea of art or inspired expression until the examining magistrate who admitted him at Ellis Island gave him a bit of advice—to work at something worth while so as to make America proud of him. His design for a 26-foot monument, which will carry to multitudes something of what America has meant to him is the result of this advice. SENTIMENT MAY REPLACE REAL ART NEW YORK, Nov. 17. — It's fairly safe to say, considering human nature and feminine temperament and all the rest, that even the recent Old Masters brot from European art galleries will fade into insignificance so far an general interest goes alongside the latest importation. The earrings that Napoleon gave to the Empress Josephine at the height of his power and of his love for her! Nothing less than that. They were recently purchased at an auction in Australia and are now displayed for sale in the window of a Fifth-ave jeweler. Could the romantic seek anything more satisfying than those emerald earrings—even just to gaze at in a window? If it's from Wittman's good. Wm. Grapp, Jr., Cement Pipe, 197-R-4.
