Northern California's total of 70, while small, was the largest on record. The shipments of Florida and Porto Rico also are either records or nearly so. According to the crop re-estimate as of March 1, the total supply of naval oranges to move as of that date from California is 10,607 carloads of 400 boxes each. Added to this are approximately 1500 cars of seedlings, sweets, St. Michael's and miscellaneous oranges bringing the total to 12,107 carloads of California oranges to be shipped exclusive of Valencias. If all of this fruit is shipped in March and April, the average daily shipments will approximate 233 cars of these varieties. For the six months from Sept. 1 to March 1, Southern California shipped 11,351 cars of oranges and grapefruit, also a record except for the previous fiscal year when in the same period 11,592 cars were shipped. Florida's figures on both oranges and grapefruit were far ahead of those of any previous fiscal year in the same period. On oranges they amounted to 17,787 and on grapefruit 10,472. Porto Rico's orange and grapefruit shipments combined slightly passed those of the record year of 1918, amounting this year to 2,183. Total shipments from all sources of supply mentioned were 11,181 for February and 46,794 carloads for the six months, by far the best showing ever made.

RAWLINSON MAKES HIT IN CONFIDENCE" That self-confidence is an all-important factor in the art of selling and that lacking is one headed straight for the rocks of failure, it very well brought out in "Confidence," the Universal attraction starring Herbert Rawlinson at the United theater. The principal character is a happy-go-lucky travelling salesman with a magnetic personality, who, after having been fired, realizes that he didn't knock what he had been missing all the time he had been hopping railroad trains and tumbling out of berths. He arrives in a small town just in time to tip in the bud a plot to swindle all the simple townpeople out of their savings and as a reward for his admirable and heroic action, the daughter of the towns wealthiest man marries him. "Confidence" is one of those very rare stories that mixes business with pleasure and gets away with it.
