From the present outlook there is
going to be a good average crop of
tomatoes along the East Coast this
season, said Glen w. Hack. OF Chase

In some locations the acreage will not
be as large as usual, and in others
'arger, but with good weather, the
general average yield will be good
and with some good rains shortly the
yield will be much larger.
Pineapples are no doubt damaged by
the cold which caught them the lat

damaged as much as at first reported.

BURR BROS. CANNOT TAKE
TOOLS FROM PROPERTY

COALINGA, Aug. 24.-Alfred Fuhr-
man, owner of the Coalinga Aladdin
lease on section 6-21-15 has served
notice on Burr brothers, through their
superintendent, Charles Spurlin. that
they will not be allowed to remove any
of the drilling tools or other material
from the property.
This is believed to be the beginning
of the end of the Aladdin company the
affairs of which have become so tan
gled of late that the stockholders do
not know where they will come out.
A few weeks ago Fuhrlnan came
down from San Francisco and defied
anyone to purchase the property at
the tax sale. Spurlin was on the
ground and. although he had no or
ders to pay the taxes he dug up the
money out of his pocket, believing that
he was doing the right thing for his
company. At that time Thurman was
gathering evidence against the Burr
brothers in order to break the lease
and get them off the property, and it
is presumed that he now has a case
against them, and that his action in
serving notice is a forerunner of the
end of the company.
Spurlin has not yet received a re-
turn of his money spent for the pay
ment of the taxes.

TELLS OF DEVELOPMENTS
IN LOST HILLS COUNTRY

BAKERSFIELD, Aug. 24.-Authentic
information regarding the success of
initial drilling in the Lost Hills section
of the county was brought into Bak-
ersfeld a night or two ago by Charles
Sharp, pioneer merchant of Hanford,
who has been in business in that town
for thirty-four years. Sharp was on
his way to Los Angeles and stopped
over at the Arlington.
There are four rigs in the Lost Hills,
in section 80, 26-31, and the first well
came in last week at depth of 257
feet. Out Of a 10-inch hole the sue
cessful company is taking from $50 to
500 barrels of oil a day, he says. The
owners are Visalia men, organized into
a company, of which Mr.. Butts is
president, and which is the successor
of a corporation originally known as
the Square Deal Oil company
Mr. Sharp, who has valuable oil pro-
ducing lands between four and five
miles distant from the new Lost Hills
well, reports that the Associated al
ready has offered the Visalia men a
pipe line from their property to the
Associated's new pipe line passing
through the locality.

FIXES STORED OIL AT
A MINIMUM OF 35 CENTS

The fixing OF 35 cents O. barrel as the
minimum value of stored oil on which
loans may be secured and the guaran-
teeing of payment of certificates on
that basis by the Union Oil company as
we'll as the Independent Producers
agency are important developments in
the plans of the latter organization for
issuing certificates for oil storage.
1t is planned to issue, about Septem-
Der 10, certificates for 100000 barrels
of oil, which is approximately third
of the amount in storage by the agency
Each certificate will be for 5000 barrels
of oil, of a minimum value of $1050. To
each certificate will be attached fifteen
coupons, each for One-tifteenth Of the
total and one being payable each month
for fifteen months. This will represent
an average period of payment of seven
and q half months.
Thus, with the minimum price of oil
fixed at 35 cents a barrel, each of the
certificates will have a value of $1,000
net, exclusive of interest, which is to be
paid at the rate Of 8 per cent per an
mum.
While the minimum price on which
the guarantee Of payment of loans is
made, is fixed at 35 cents a barrel, the
holders Of the certificates would receive
of course all above that amount that
might be paid for the oil.
1t is believed that under this plan the
members of the agency will have no
difficulty whatever in securing loans on
the certificates, guarantee of the mem
bers Of the agency being made doubly
strong by that Of the Union Oil compa-
ny, one of the greatest organizations OF
its kind in the country.
The issuing of the certificates will re-
suit in the placing of a large additional
of money in circulation here
and in the oil fields.

FORMER SENATOR CALL
DIES IN WASHINGTON
Represented Florida in the Upper
House for 18 Years

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24,-Cerebral
hemorrhage was the immediate cause
of death at the emergency hospital
here today of former United States
Senator Wilkinson Call of Florida.
Senator Call was stricken at his
Washington home last Saturday, He
became unconscious and was conveyed
to the hospital, where he remained in
a comatose state until his death to-
day. Senator Call is survived by a
daughter, Miss Lucy Call.
Serving in the upper branch of con-
gress eighteen years, from 1879 to 1897,
Mr.. Call occupied an important place
on several committees. He was a ma
tive of Russellville, KY, and was 76
years old.
In boyhood he went to Florida. At
the outbreak of the Civil war Mr.. Call
enlisted as a volunteer in the confed-
crate army and before the close of
hostilities became adJutant general of
Florida troops. After the war the
Florida legislature elected him United
States senator, but he was not then
seated. Thereafter he began the prac-
tice of law in Jacksonville. He was
presidential elector at large in 1877
and 1876; a member of the Democratic
national executive committee in 1876,
delegate to the Democratic national
convention in 1876. After leaving pub
lie life Senator Call continued the

WANTS ALL TO WORK
AGAINST GOVERNMENT
ATTACK UPON OIL MEN

COALINGA Aug. 24.-Dr. C. T.
Dean, the president of the board of
trustees of the state mining bureau,
was in Coalinga yesterday comforting
with Secretary Jayne concerning the
oil land disposal bill, toward the for
nation of which the chamber of COM
merce is working.
cooperation of all interests through
out the state in the formation of such
bill. Jayne assured him that the
local organization was in no way
desirous of selfishly fathering the
bill, and told of the numerous let
ters that have been sent out to other
organizations and men who are work
ing to get together the ideas on the
matter of legislation. All these let
ters urge cooperation and an inter-
changing of ideas.
DR.. Dean says during the four
months that are given for getting the
bill into proper shape, before the
convening of congress, all interests
should be given an opportunity to state
their objections or approval. 1t may
be necessary for all to concede a little
to get a bill that will be generally sat
isfactory, but when the result of the
work is presented in finished form
there will be no doubt of its passage,
because all will have agreed and there
will be no opposition.
Should legislation on the under
ground water problem be attempted,
he believes that the bill should be
presented through the channels of the
state mining bureau. More weight
will. in this manner, be given to the
requests of the oil men.
DIR. Dean departed this evening for
San Francisco While in Coalinga
looking after his own oil interests he
was asked to attend to the above mat
ter by telegram from State Mineralo
gist Lewis Aubury.

PRECAUTIONS NECESSARY
TO STOP TYPHOID SPREAD
Fly Great Carrier of the Germs
of Disease
Especial to The Herald

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-If there
exists some one center from which
typhoid germs are being disseminated
among the people precautions are i'm
perative. 1t can do no harm to guard
against the malady in every possible
way while the authorities are making
an investigation and determining just
how serious is the situation.
During the last few years medical
scientists have established beyond rea-
sonable argument that the fly is one of
the chief means by which typhoid
germs are transmitted. This being
true, why subject ourselves to the pos
sibility of infection from this source?
Why permit flies to swarm at will
through our homes. around and over
our food? Why not protect ourselves
and our food from flies, even if we
don't believe absolutely in the fly
danger?
All water and milk taken into the
system should first be boiled. All food
should be kept where flies cannot crawl
over it. No raw vegetables or oysters
should be eaten.
Typhoid patients should be protected
by screens or nets to prevent flies
carving disease germs from them to
others.
Care should be exercised to make GER
tain that no dishes, bed clothing,
books or other articles used by a
typhoid patient are used by another
without being thoroughly disinfected
and sterilized.
If these simple precautions were OBJ
served there would be little Likelihood
that typhoid would ever become epide-
mic. 1t would be speedily stamped out.

STRIKES GAS POCKET

TAFT, Aug. PA huge gas pocket
was struck in the Consolidated Midway
we'll a mile and a half from town on
section 22, 1928, few days ago..
The gas blew out with a roar about 4
o'clock, and with the first rush the
crown block was shot off. Some rock
and a large quantity of sand were
blown out.
AS the stream played against the top
of the rig, the heavy bracing timbers
were torn loose, and when one was
fairly struck it was crushed to pieces,
which were thrown hundreds of feet
into the air, like straws in a whirl-
wind. At times the pressure would in
crease, following a small shower of
rock After a couple of hours the flow
exhausted itself.
The hole is 1900 feet deep, the casing
at the bottom being 10-inch. The ter
rife force with which the gas shot out
seemed to rival, if it did not exceed,
the big Standard gas well which has
run wild for several weeks.

BIG DECREASE IN EXPORT
OF AMERICAN BICYCLES
Japanese Manufacturers Supply
the Demand There

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Bicycling
as a pastime is rapidly decreasing in
popularity abroad as well as in this
country.
Government statistics show a tremen-
dous falling off in exports of bicycles
from the United States. Explanation of
the decrease is found in the fact, it is
said, that bicycles are now used chiefly
for business.
When bicycles were at the zenith of
their popularity in 1897 they were ex-
ported to the value of $1,000, 1928. In
1900 the exports fell to $3,563,149. In the
last fiscal year bicycles exported ag-
gregated only $620,760. The greater
Kingdom.
In Japan local manufacturers are
largely supplying the demand.
