HERMON PROPERTY
DRAWS BIG PRICE,
WILL KEEP BANK
J. X. HermOn Buys Control
of California Bank in
Santa Ana
Twenty-Five Foot Lot Gets
$4,000; HermOn Holds -.
Security Stock "

j. X. Hermon, president of the Secur-
ity Commercial and Savings Bank, re-
turned from Santa Ana this morning
and confirmed the news that he has
purchased controlling interest in the
California National Bank of Santa
Ana and would soon move to that city.
Mr.. Hermon has sold all of his Imper-
iaI Valley interests with the exception
of his stock in the Security Commercial
and Savings Bank, which he retains.
The figures at which Mr.. Hermon sold
his ranch property are favorable index
es of the stabilizing process which is
taking place with respect to Imperial
Valley farm values.
One hundred and twenty acres south
east of FL Centre on the Acacia ditch
were sold for $3.50 per acre. Eighty acres
near Dixieland brought $3.50 per acre,
and two other forties, one just south of
FL Centre, brought $3.50 per acre. Mr..
Hermon s building on the north side of
Main street between Fourth and Fifth,
brought $4,000 for % foot front.
Mr.. Hermon acquires controlling IN
terest in the California National Bank
of Santa Ana, an institution with re-
sources of over 81 100000. He is to
become the responsible head of the
bank and will move to Santa Ana with
his family in about 10 days. For the
present there will be no change IN the
personnel of the Security Commercial
and Savings Bank of which Mr.. Her
mon is the president.
There will be much regret locally at
losing Mr.. Hermon and his wife from
business and social circles. Mr.. Hermon
stresses the fact that his decision TO
make the change was influenced solely
bv consideration for the health of hls
son, who finds friendlies conditions IN
