TOR LA TOILETTE

A meeting will be held in San
Francisco tomorrow, with active Re-
publicans from all parts of the state
present, to organize campaign for
the nomination of LaFollette for presi-
dent. The call is headed by Governor
Johnson.
That LaFpllette is the favorite of
the voters bf California and of most
of the states there B cannot be the
slightest doubt If the nomination was
to be made by primaries. La Toilette
would win overwhelmingly. But the
federal machine, composed of office
holders, is against him, being con-
trolled by Taft, and that machine
probably can swing into the national
convention enough votes from states
that never are Republican to nominate
Taft, if he is willing to ruin the party
for the empty honor of denomination
when he could not by any possibility
be reelected.

THE sEE.sAw OF PRICES

Last spring barley was down in
price, but the supply went short after
most of the crop was sold by the farm
ers, then prices began to soar, and
the shortage promises to continue,
with prospect of a good price for the
next harvest of this valley.
Last spring.. and in fact for the last
two years, hay has been down to a
point that did not justify shipping. and
now comes the report of threatened
fay famine up north, with San Fran
cisco 11S,000 tons shy of last year S
saprly. The available supply IN this
valley is short, it is reported. but the
prospects appear to BE excellent for
marketing spring cutting of alfalfa and
barley hay.
Last spring the price of hogs was
pretty well up, but they have of late
been week. owing to the tendency to
quit the hog business because of the
high price of feed all over the coun-
try, and market prophets are OF the
opinion that this period will be fol-
lowed by a series of years of high
prices.
Last spring the price of butter fat
was down, but now it has advanced
to the old-fashioned level of prosper
Ivy.
Last spring the uI;ce of Gotten was
well up, but it has decliied, and the
widespread world disturbance and the
big yield leave little room to expec,

TAFT MAY SUGGEST.
THE REMOVAL OF BAN

WASHINGTON Nov. 24.-There is
a we'll defined report that President
Taft in his message to congress may
have something to say on the subject
of negotiations betwene the United
States and Russia, looking to a re-
vision of the treaty of 1882. principal
ly to remove the present restrictions
upon the rights of travel and domicile
of American Jews in Russia.
The rumor is coincidental with the
beginning of the official calls of
George Bakmitieff. the Russian am
bassador Mr. Bakmetieff had long
talk with Secretary Knox and soon
will present his credentials to the
President, Ety :
President Taft has received many
insistent suggestiohss that the treaty
with Russia be abrogatsdS On the other,
hand. some of the PresideHt.s s advisers,
it is said. have counseled aga1nst such
drastic action; They take the ground
that to cut off all treaty relations with
Russia would leave the situation in
worse shape than at present and that
in the abrogation of the treaty the
United States has everything to. lose
in the way of tariff concessions and
other considerations. while Russia
would lose virtually nothing.
1t is said that both at the state de7
partment and White House the hope
exists that material notifications of
the existing treaty may be negotiated

PLAN a DATE FARM

IL will remain for the Panama Cal
ifornia international Exposition to
demonstrate that the raising of dates

government has been experimenting
with dates in Arizona and Southern
California for ten years, but as yet the
public knows little or nothing about

"a concession wherein the process OF
preparing the dates for market may
be demonstrated.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Cutler was
shown the site of the exposition ana
the ground set aside by Director OF
Works Allen for concessions of the
sort he asked for. He was pleased
with the general plan of the exposi- |
tion and the arrangements for taking |

We want to begin, almost Immediately

is quite interesting, as told by Mr..

inal trees. On these trees now are
1927 offshoots, ready to be planted
Fifty trees are planted to the acre.
Last year one of these trees in the
Coachella Valley yielded 100 pounds of
dates. which sold in Los Angeles at 80
cents pound.
During 1911 there have been 1929
trees shipped here from Africa They
will begin to bear the third year, but
will not come into full bearing until
the fifth year.
The dates now being raised in Goa
chella Valley are the Deglet Nour. or
date of light; also some Rhards, which
are a larger and coarser grained date.
Both these varieties are said by ex
perts to be much superior to the or
dinary date of commerce.
