 D. F. Boyce, had narrow escape from serious injury if not death, in runaway accident last Wednesday. He was working oil the levee on the main canal driving Fresno scraper team. Having occasion to move some distance he turned the scraper down and sat on the handle rod. By some means the 'scraper tipped throwing him over onto the horses who instantly bolted. In the melee they ran quarter of mile or more, knocking down everything they came in contact with. When finally stopped and Mir. Boyce rescued, he was found to have been quite badly bruised and scratched up, but so far as known no bones were broken. If he hadn't held on just as he did he would have been killed beyond doubt.

In the fervor of his patriotism Mir. Gu esta feels very keenly concerning the matter and points out how utterly im- possible such transfer would be. For our part we fail to see why it would not be perfectly proper transaction and one that would be mutually beneficial to both countries and especially to Lower California

He has the exclusive agency for the entire Valley for the celebrated "Walter A. Wood" line of farm machinery and implements, the Birdsall wagons, King man blows and cultivators and will car ry buggies, harness and tools of all sorts. Everyone who ever saw an up to date American farm has seen "Walter A. Wood" machinery and every up to date farmer knows the excellence of that line of farm implements.
