ENTER BIG MERGER

The extensive Torres and Salisbury
interests in the famous Yaqui valley,
Sonora, Mexico, consisting of number
of adjoinn gtracts, in all aggregating
more than 100000 acres, have been
merged, and the land is now being Of
fered to the many American investors
who are flocking to the attractive ag-
ricultural section south of the interna-
tional line.
An extensive irrigation system has
already been developed, between $4,000
and 10000 acres being served from the
canals. The land is owned by the Yaqui
Valley Land and Irrigation company,
with offices in the Bradbury building,
Los Angeles. Units of twenty-five
acres and up will be offered to settlers
at price of about SIS an acre. This
will include water right inherent to
the land, together with proportionate
interest in the canal system serving
the respective tracts.

THE TRUCK MOVEMENT.
HoW-a Wesson Trucker Learned a
Lesson on Packing.

Our tomato movement began
Monday. We could have loaded a
car perhaps, last week, as our to-
matoes are as forward as those Of
neighboring towns, but we are new
in this enterprise and our aim is
to make ourselves known through
the excellent quality of our goods.
We have gone to extra expense and
taking steps that are unusual in
this section in order to have our
guods of quality that will place
them right on the very top in the
markets. We are sure the differ
ence in the prices that we will OBJ
tain and those of the common grade
and pack will more than pay us for
our extra trouble. We have met
with some opposition, some growers
claiming they could pack their to-
matoes at home, and one of these
furnished an interesting demon
stration at Wesson Saturday of the
way the home packing and wrap
ping so often happens. This party
had been thoroughly instructed as
to the kind to pick from the vines
and how to pack them, and yet
when they were packed and sent to
town and inspected they had to be
rejected because of worms, culls
and half grown fruit. and the depot
platform furnished sightseers with
proof that sometimes we can't pack
our tomatoes quite as we'll as some
on- else could do it for us.
What is the use to pick half
grown tomatoes and wrap and ship
them to some man to hold, two or
three weeks to see if it is going to
ripen or rot. Why not let it stay
on the vine and grow larger and
pick it off when it is grown, then
it will ripen in four or five days,
while on the journey to the market,
and be ready for eating when it
gets there.
: We have at last been able to
make satisfactory arrangements
with the railroad company to move
and handle our cars from Farmers
Union Cotton Warehouse and the
work of asserting, grading packing
and loading in cars is now in
progress. A number Of buyers are
lon hand and we will likely have
the chance to sell our cars at The
Bird in hand prices. We cannot
see the use, however, in selling our
tomatoes at 80 cents when our
neighbors are getting ST. on track,
and when the most reliable market
Quotations place them at $1.50 and
$3.50 per crate. Selling on track
is all right if the buyer don t want
too much margin. The craze to
lsell on track is a thing we must
watch lest too much of our profits
lbe given away. The men who
ldig in the earth to make these
lproducts are seldom men who know
all the conditions that affect the
market value of the same, and the
lonly safe thing for them to do is to
Ilentrust this most important service
to some trustworthy person who is
mot himself a speculator in these
products. This is what our grow
lers have been led to do. and If they
will stick to It now and forever. il
will redown to their glory in bring
ling vast sums of money to them
