N0-ACClDENT WEEK ON
SANTA FE SUCCESSFUL
EARLY REPORTS SHOW

No accident week throughout the
central western region came to a
close last night and while the reports
from the Santa Fe system, or even
the Rio Grande division, were not
available, preliminary advices indi-
Gated that the Santa Fe was leading
all the other roads in having the least
number of accidents during the week.
In the machine shops here there
was but one accident. caused by Il
man fainting and falling into a forge
fire. This was unavoidable.
Master Mechanic McMurray report
ed that in the mechanical department
of the Rio Grande division not an ac-
cident was reported during the week.
He has supervision over Albuquerque
round house, Socorro, San Marcial,
Deming, Hurley, Silver City, Fierro,
Santa Rita, Rincon and El Paso.
Officials feel that the campaign to
prevent accidents was an unqualified
success as the lessons learned by the
employees last week will be of great
value to them in the future.

POTATO PRODUCERS TO
BUILD WAREHOUSES; TO
AID IN SELLING CROP

G. A. McNabb. field agent in mar
keting, is in the city, having lust re-
turned from a trim to ColfaX county
where he held meetings of the John
sons mesa and Merino valley potato
growers. The results We're the formu-
laton of plans for the erection of two
large warehouses. one at Yankee for
the accommodation of the Johnson's
mesa growers and the other at Ute
Park to take care of the potatoes rails
ed in the Merino valley.
1t is believed that with the aid of
warehouses in which to store their
potatoes the growers will be able to
realize better prices and increase
their acreage. Soon after the potato
crop is gathered in the fall the roads
in that altitude become impossible
until late in the spring, preventing
the moving of the crops from the
point of production to the loading
station. By erecting storage houses
the growers will be able to get most
of their potatoes to the warehouse
before the roads close, and they can
then be shipped out during the win
ter, instead of having to hold them
until spring when they come in con-
tact with the new crop in the south
ern states.
Another meeting will be held in The
near future, at which time the pro-
ducers will complete their organi2d-
ton to proceed with the erection Of
the buildings. ...........
These storage houses will also hct
as medium for handling concen-
trated cattle feed shipped in during
the winter. The feed can be obtained
in carload lots direct from the manu-
facturer.
The potato output in the region
now amounts to about 100 cars l.
nually, which is only a small part o.
what the country is capable of pro-
