BERRY GROWERS ARE
CALLING FOR help
Cry Goes Up From All Sec
lions for Labor to Help
Save the Crops

A cry for help is coming in the city
from all the berry growers and fruit
raisers in the county. The shortage of
pickers and help in general is enorm-
Gus, and high wages are being offered
in hopes that enough can be obtained
to save the berry crops. The Drager
Fruit Co. said this morning that grow
ers in the vicinity of Brooks are short
more than one hundred pickcrs, and
similar reports are common in all sec
tons. 1t seems that the people do not
realize the gravity of the situation, and
the fact that every berry saved means
that much more to feed the boys in
khaki here in the United States and
over in Europe. One offer of help has
come to this office from Mrs Walter
Spaulding, vice leader Of the Girls
Honor Guard, who said this morning
that she would ehaperone bunch OF
girls if enough answered her appeal TO
60 into the berry yards and pick. She
said that the Salem Woman's club ask
ed her TO see what could be done by the
girls.
Many advertisements are appearing
in the paper today for logan berry pick
ers at prices far above those of last
year. The cherry crop is not all gather
ed and and as high as l12 cents per
pound are being paid. Even the farmers
are harder pressed for help during the
harvest this year than ever before, and

Found On Railroad Track

Globe. Ariz., July 16.-The body of
Mara Cafado, United States trooper of
troop X. Seventeenth cavalry, was
found here early today lying on the
railroad track near the city limits. Au-
thorities advance two theories-one
that Cafado was murdered, his throat
being cut. The body was placed on the
track to cover up the crime, it IS be-
lieved.
Another theory is that Cafado was
killed near the Old Dominion mine pich-
ct line. He was slugged, this theory
would indicate, and carried to the
track, where the laeerated throat was
inflicted by train running over the
body. A eoroneY's inquest will be held
shortly. Feeling runs high here as the
result Of the alleged murder.
