The latter, which began packing today, will send out two carloads per day, operating one of its two units. Manager G. W. Sandilands of the Orange & Lemon Ass'n said he saw no reason why present prices, with some fluctuations, should not be maintained. Regarding the condition of the groves, Schureman said damage was spotty, from frost, red spider and wind alike. Schureman's estimate of damage in the county is 30 per cent. Spraying for red spider is being done in groves of various packing associations where needed.

BACK EVERINGTON'S CLEANUP LOS ANGELES, April 3.—Chief of Police Everington was endorsed and Tomorrow, between daylight and dark, another step in the municipal life and progress of Anaheim will be taken. The proposal to join with Santa Ana in an outfall sewer under most advantageous conditions is one that cannot be dodged, and no reasonable excuse can be made by any registered voter for not dismarging his obligation TOMORROW. Santa Ana pays 75% of the cost of the joint outfall sewer line under the plan to be voted on tomorrow, involving $240,000 in bonds for the city of Anaheim's share. The growth of Anaheim has been such during the last several years that bond issues in excess of this amount have been carried without one cent additional taxation on our taxpayers and Anaheim today is growing faster than ever. The city of Anaheim has done its best to meet the requirements of its population in this regard. It is under contempt of court for maintaining the present sewage disposal局 in a neighborhood which is rapidly growing. If the bonds fail to carry by a two-thirds vote, tomorrow, our municipal officials will be placed in a serious legal extremity and Anaheim will have lost her one chance to join with a neighboring city in an economical plan for the disposal of sewage, which will meet her requirements until she is a city of 40,000 souls. Apathy on the part of registered voters is the one thing that can kill tomorrow's bond election. And that is unthinkable. Automobiles will be at your disposal at the Chamber of Commerce — telephone 665—between 9 in the morning and 6 in the afternoon. Those living north of Center street, including the north side of Center, will vote at Pacific Farm Implement Company's premises, corner of Chartres and North Los Angeles streets.
