Prof. J. c. Blair stated that the prac.

is proving good in some regions, but
in Illinois, where extremes Of tempera.

winds, it requires methods beyond the

Imperial Valley press., 1912-01-06

Imperial Valley farmers cannot but
take much interest in watching crop
conditions in the state at large, as well
as in this valley, for there is no dis
guising the fact that in unirrigated
sections the condition is critical
With the greatest feed and gram
shortage on the coast that has been
known in many years, rain has been
much below normal thus far this year,
while frequent wind storms have taken
the little moisture from the ground. At
the same time throughout the state
frosty mornings have prevented the
growth of all kinds of vegetation.
In common with other sections, this
valley has suffered from the fTosts
which prevented growth, and as a re-
suit there is less feed for stock than
is needed. But the question of rain
has no effect on the productiveness Of
this valley.
That the entire coast will experience
a continued shortage OF hay and grain
for at least another year now seems
certain, though this valley should come
forward this season with its usual
bOunteous crops, which will be market
able at very unusual prices.
1t is discOuraging Just now to see
the live stock on short Tatiors in many
fields, but everybody recognizes the
certainty that in a very few days warm
er weather will bring renewed growth,
and while the winter pasturage is less
abundant than usual, the spring crops
win be fully up to normal
Within three months this valley will
be shipping new alfalfa hay to market
and within another sixty days there
will be great quantity of barley hay
ready for the market. Under ordinary
conditions it is hardly profitable to ship
hay, but there can be no doubt that
the conditions which will prevail the
coming spring will justify heavy ship
ments and give the farmers of the val
ley large cash receipts.
Being able in advance to forecast
conditions, there can be little doubt

cOMTRARAND ARTICLES FOUND
ON RUEF AFTER VISIT

OAKLAND, Cal, Jan. 6.-Discharg-
ed from his position as guard in San
Quention through alleged failure to find
"contraband' articles on the person of
Abe Ruef Immediately following an in
teiview outside the prison gates last
Wednesday between Ruef and his for
mer bondsmen, William Cohn, George
Babb, connected with the institution,
for the past two years and half, is
said to have been promised another
job by Cohn.
Yesterday when Cohn appeared at
the gates for another interview with
Ruef, he was informed by Warden
Hoyle that the prisoner was being held
"incommunicado' as the result of a
search made of his person by Captain
Randolph, halfbreed Indian in charge
Of the prison yard, who found upon
Ruef several pieces of chocolate candy
and a newspaper clipping.
According to those familiar with the
episode, Ruef was allowed to step out
side of the prison Office last Wednes-
day to visit with Cohn. AS he went
through the gate, Captain Randolph
instructed Guard George Babb to
make a careful search of Ruef when
he returned
After the meeting, which was within
plain view of the guards on the walls
Babb stopped Ruef and searched him
Captain Randolph was near at hand
and, stepping up to Babb, he asked the
officer if he found anything upon Ruef
it is said, receiving a reply in the neg
ative.
Returning to the office, Randolph
| Immediately ordered Ruef before him
and himself made search. The
pieces of chocolate together with the
newspaper clipping, the nature OF
which has not been divulged by the
officials, were found in his possession
He was Immediately ordered into close
! confinement
/ Captain Randolph then ordered that
Babb, the guard, should be taken out
side the gates, and upon his recon-.
mendation, Warden Hoyle discharged
/ him yesterday.

denied an interview with Ruef, is {

BRIGHT PROSPECTS LIE BEFORE
THE IMPERIAL VALLEY FARMERS

that the farmers will sell heavily of
hay and make it a point to grow a
great acreage of corn in the summer
TO meet their own requirements for
stock feed
Much the same condition prevails
as regards the dairy business. Just
now the scarcity of feed is discourag-
ing, but the price of butter fat is high
and will continue high long after the
crops in the valley have given a su-
perabundance of feed, because this be-
ing the region of earliest crops the
farmers here will have feed much be
fore other sections.
1t is not a year of great prosperity
for beef cattlemen, for the scarcity Of
feed is adding to the expense and the
difficulty Of getting the stock ready for
market
Hog rafsers who grew corn during
the summer are profiting fairly well
and realize the Importance of growing
a large crop of corn for the next sea-
sons fattening. Barley has. been too
I-ualle OF late for extensive feeding
OF hogs, and probably will SO continue
for some time, but corn furnishes the
desired substitute.
1t is not impossible that this condi-
tion will affect the acreage OF cotton
the coming year Ordinarily, it can
be expected that cotton will give bet
ter returns than barley and alfalfa,
but it is an open question whether it
will do so this year. The wide in
dustrial and international disturbances
Of the world, the extensive strikes of
cotton operatives in England and the
revolution in China are all disconcert-
ing features which work TO the detri,-
ment of the cotton grower, and may
TO some degree affect the acreage
which will be grown IN the valley the
coming season.
One cannot survey the situation
without the belief that this is to be a
season of great prosperity to the farm
ers Of the valley, and hence to all
classes CT citizens.

TALE TOLD BY
BOY WANDERER
Says His Parents We're
Killed by Indians.

John Armstrong, the sixteen-year.
old wanderer who appealed to the
police for lodging Thursday night,
was again in their caro- last night.
He was picked up by Patrolman Ton
nesen shortly before 6 O'Clock last
night and locked up for safekeeping.
Before his discharge this morning
the lad was closely questioned by
Chief of Police Burke. He told q
story of being an orphan and wander
ing from place to place. He claimed
his parents had been killed by In
dams at Cheyenne. That part Of the
story is secuted by the police, who
believe the lad to be a runaway from
home seeking to view the country by
what is commonly called "roughing
it."
The boy, who is rather tall for his
age, walks with a limp. He told the
police he was shot by a farmer for
trespassing while hunting near Phil
adelphia a few days ago. He Sc
cured work with Anness G Potter in
Woodbridge Monday, he claims, and
shortly afterward was given fifty
cents by one of his employers to go
to a doctor in an effort to be placed
in the city hospital here, the boy
states. He was not admitted, he
claims. Chief Burke released him
shortly before 8 o'clock this morn
ing.
