young men in the upper classes can
become expert inspectors of melons
by studying pamphlets and following
the suggestions Of Mr.. Waite and
others, and may earn 500 to $3.50 per

Horticultural Commissioner Waite

charge of murder.
Witnesses testified that Khair Din
said he would kill Hassan Ali, one Of
the dead men, and that Hassan had
told of his fear that Khair Din would
kill him.
The piercing eyes of the sullen-
faced Khair Din sought the face of
each witness and reflected the fear
of the gallows which the man nn-
doubtedly felt. Two Hindu lnterpre-

were not needed, as the state put Oh

mentioned Khair Din.
Hassan Ali went to Meserve two
weeks before he was killed and told
the ranch owner to make over his
lease to another Mohammedan, be-
cause he feared death. Later he said
that Khair Din had threatened him
with death, and he was afraid he
would carry out his threats.

Los Angeles, Nov. l6.-Another par
ty of Mexican laborers, who had COM
pleted the seasons work for the va
rious beet sugar companies in South
ern California, passed through the
city yesterday from Los Alamitos,
bound for Nogals, where they will be
sent across the line to Mexico. Others
have been hired to assist the ranch
ers in the Imperial Valley in the gath
ering of the cotton crop and will re-
main there indefinitely.
These Mexicans were brought into
the country some months ago, under
an agreement between the beet sugar
companies and the Department Of La
Dor, in order to relieve the labor prob
lem, which had become acute in the
beet sugar section. Under that agree
ment they were allowed to remain in
the United States for the period of six
months, but were to be employed in
no other vocation except that of ag-
ricult,re.
They went to work for the various
beet sugar companies--LOs Alamitos,
American, Anaheim, Holly, Santa Ana
and the Southern California corpora
tions. The work in the sugar beet
fields is now over, and the men were
given the choice of returning to Mex.
leo Immediately or to go to work in
the cotton fields of Imperial county.
Three carloads on the Southern Pa
cific, containing about 200 men, re-
turned to Nogales, where they will be
sent across the border. The rest will
80 to Imperial county.
immigration Inspectors Kuykcndall
and Blec, representing the Immigra-
tion Department, were on hand to
identify the men who proposed re-
naming in the country, by comparing
the certificate and photograph that
were given the beet owners represen-
tative when the men came into the
country. The duplicates are in the
hapds Of the immigration agent at I'll
Paso and Nogales, where the men
came into the country.
