NO REPORT ON
BOND PROJECTS
BEFORE SUMMER

There will be no report on the
proposed S30,000,000 All-American
canal bond issue and the 100000
first leg project before summer, it
was learned this morning.
P. M. Narboe, assistant to the
state engineer, who is in the valley
making a memorandum for the state
engineer, stated today that he will
probably be through his investiga-
tions this week.
1t will take him several weeks to
assemble his data, and after that
the state engineer and the state bond
commission will have to have time
to deliberate on the data submitted
before the decision is given.
When asked if delay by the
state, making it impossible for the
district to vote bonds and commence
work by October % the date the dis
trict contract with the government
specifies. would in any way work to
the harm of the district, he said that
he did not think it would as the state
would in that case be responsible for
the delay

WEEKLY COT TON
MARKET REVIEW
E. f. Hutton and Company of
San Francisco BelieUe the
Weather is Principal Factor
in Market.

The following is the weekly cotton
market review of E. +. Hutton 4 Co.,
of San Francisco:
The weather is now the principal
factor in the cotton market and, while
other news has some effect on prices,
yet the bulk of trading is done on the
conditions in the growing section of
the belt. The weather during the
month just passed was unusually bad
and had this kind of weather contin-
ued through the first part of May, no
doubt. higher prices would have been
scored. So far this month the weather
has been favorable and there las been
general tendency for prices to de-
cline, despite the more favorable
reports.
There have been demonstrations
against high prices, but no concerted
efforts have been put forth and. as
, result, bulls have not ben intimdated
in the least. Bulls still advance the
theory that the price of cotton could
still be advanced few notches with
out the price of manufactured goods
undergoing change. Bears point
and not without cause-to labor unrest
both here and abroad.
In the United States the manufac
-"rer hse almost invariably granted
labor's demanded increase and then
passed the buck to the consumer, but
- England the situation is different.
Labor has felt that it has been under
paid for centuries and now the British
laborer is demanding more and more
and the difference between the wages
| L tho
manded now in England is far greater
than the difference in America. AS
result the British manufacturer can
not hope to pass the buck on the con-
sumner as can the American.
Threatened labor troubles in New
England were offset to some extent
! by the immediate increase in wages
! by some of the bills. Domestic trade
continues good. although toward the
end of the week there were some can
cellations reported by the mills end
/ buyers showed disneitien to await
some reduction in price.
Spot cotton continues firm at around
46 cents for the mddling grades and
the holder seems as determined as ever
to get his price. Sentiment seems to
be more bearish than for some time
and, with a spell of favorable weather,
the new Gro poptions will no doubt
feel the effects of selling pressure
- with decline in the future, spot
holders may become alarmed and try
to dispose of some of their cotton
1..u .emand tor cotton at present IS
not Urgent and, should wave of spot
Gotten come on the market. It would
make the bears aggressive and no
doubt, bring about quick decline,
which would be the best thing that
could happen to the market, as most OF
TIE bull news is stale and lower level
| Of prices would be attractive to those
who are bullish but are awaiting a
reaction before taking hold.

valley will average about one-haf car
of cantaloupes per acre. This year,
however, because OF the unfavorsNle
factors already mentioned, and be-
cause many growers are relatively
or entirely inexperienced in raising
cantaloupes, as well as the facS that
considerable land not well suited for
cantaloupes has been used, it is be-
lieved that the yield will be below
average-possibly not over lao crates
per acre. Figuring the average pro-
duction at the figure named, however,
means that 9,345 cars of 336 standard
crates each will be produced. Be
cause of strike conditions railroad
officials cannot, at this time, figure
at all accurately on the number of
refrigerator cars which will be avail
able to move the crop, but many
people doubt if over 5000 cars can be
secured for this purpose. An idea OF
the effect of such car shortage upor
growers and shippers will perhaps be
gained by stating that if maximum
of only five crates per day per acre
is picked, the supply would fill over
800 cars daily for probably three
weeks. Last years shipments ex-

RENEW EFFORT TO
RAISE AMERICAN
LEGION DEFICIT

During the recent publicity cam
paign which Boyce Aten Post of the
American Legion conducted in support
Of the kettner and kincaid bills In
congress, the local post was left with
a deficite of $400 in connection with
the campaign.
The publicity was carried to all parts
of the United States through the local
American Legion posts in each local
ity, the Endorsement by the various
posts of the All-American canal and
soldier settlement plan for the East
Side lands. as well as their assistance
in communicating with representatives
and senators from their respective dis
tricts was secured. AS a result of the
campaign the local most is still in COM
inunication with some 1900 posts of
the American Legion, and great
many of these posts have pledged their
rctive support for the All-Amerlcan
canal and the soldier settlement plan
when it is again brought before con-
Gress in the fall.
So much has been accomplished by
the local post of the Legion, at its
own expense, and with what assistance
it has been able to obtain, that the
local Chamber of Commerce has I'M
dertaken to raise the amount of the
deficit by subscription. To do this, the
chamber has appointed a committee

Up to March l growing conditions
were almost ideal, the weather being
slightly warmer than the average for
that time of year, with an entire abb
sence of frost. Between 10000 and
10000 acres were planted early, and
the plants covered with oiled paper
as protection against frost. Begin
ming in March cold weather, heavy
winds and rain combined to retard
and injure the crop. There wese es-

the edges of the leaves, and in many
cases shook off the young fruit of the
crown set and tore off runners. Be.
cause of this damage, the season will
be delayed slightly, and the yield
from the crown set seriously reduced.
The disturbance of the vines also is
causing premature netting, and all
factors agree that the crown set will

FARMER AND GOOD HIGHWAYS
Has Become Hard Working and Vot-
Ing Enthusiast for Improved Roads
Because Of Many Benefits

The biggest booster for good roads
In the country today is the farmer. A
few years ago he felt that the portion
of his taxes used in the construction
of permanent. highways represented a
benefit only to the motoring tourist
and the city automobile owner, writes
II. w. SlauSOn In LeSlie's. The farm
er argued that he was paying for
their pleasures, and the result was a
superstition against the good roads
movement.
Now, however, when the farmer
finds that his land has trebled in val
ue: when the merchandise for which
he has telephOned in the morning can
be delivered by noon of the same day /;
when the market for his own produce
is brought hours nearer; when the
winter and its following spring thaw
possess no terrors for him-aH this
because Of the improved highway
which makes his farm only a suburb,
as it were. OF the nearest city-he
naturally becomes a Woodworking and
hard-voting enthusiast for good roads.
