ORANGE-CO LEADS ACRE PRODUCTION That the estimated value of agricultural lands in Orange-co is more than 50 per cent of the value of all properties in the county, and that this county leads all others in the state in the value of production per acre, were among interesting disclosures made to the Santa Ana Kiwanis club by H. E. Wahlberg, county farm advisor, in a discussion of Orange-co production and wealth as compared with other counties of the state. Raising his figures on land values on information secured from County Assessor James Sleeper, Wahlberg estimated the value of agricultural lands in Orange county at $225,000,-000, or a little more than 50 per cent of the estimated total value of $400,-000,000 for all properties. From government statistics he found that the value of agricultural products in Los Angeles county for 1820 was $61,000,000, with Los Angeles claiming the honor of having the dargest returns, agriculturally, of any county in the United States. He conceded that claim in point of volume, but reducing it to returns per acre he produced facts showing that Orange county exceeds Los Angeles in the production value per acre. Orange county is credited with returns of $21,000,000 for the same year. Making a comparison of the value of crop productivity per acre in the counties of Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside Fresno and Tulare, admittedly the big producing counties of the state, he showed that the returns in Orange county for the year were $74.; Los Angeles, $69; Fresno, $39; Tulare, $28; and Riverside, $27. That the percentage of mortgage indebtedness in Orange county is less than in the other counties was revealed by the advisor. The ratio of mortgage indebtedness in Orange county as compared with the valuation is 24 per cent; in Los Angeles, 25 per cent; Tulare, 27 per cent; Fresno, 31 per cent, and Riverside, 20 per cent. Only eleven per cent of the number of farms in Orange county are farmed by tenants. In the other counties, the percentage is as follows: Los Angeles, 35%. LONGER TERMS FOR ROBBERIES URGED NEW YORK, Nov. 25.—The confiscation of firearms less than three feet in length, heavier punishment for robbers, less prison reform and stricter enforcement of anti-narcotic laws are among the recommendations of U. S. judges, district attorneys and state officials, who have been asked by the National Surety Co. to suggest methods of checking daylight bank holdups, which have cost the banks more than $1,000,000 already this year.

Orange county also leads in the percentage of ranches owned by their operators, according to the figures presented by Wahiberg. He stated that 82 per cent of the farms in the county are tilled by their owners, with Los Angeles having a percentage of 68, Fresno, 81, Tulare, 77, and Riverside, 79.
