the following story Of clever Ameri-

anecdote of a clever English fox. On
a November day, he says, neighbor
of his saw a flock of ducks Oh. the

runs into shinnecock bay. - !:
While trying to get nearer to the
ducks, meanwhile keeping himself well
hidden and watching them very rau-
tiously through the grass, hewas
amazed to see a fox that had waded
out about forty feet from shore. It
was attracting the ducks by gently
waving it's tail. In few minutes It
would unquestionably have caught: .

Wagering big cattle ranch
against the outcome of foot race
is one Of the excitement producing
elements in Going Some" The pic
ture is all that Harry Beaumont. d.
rection with the assistance of the au-
thor can make it,. Most of the action
centers around the two runners and
the owners Of the ranches. The run
ners hold the destiny of many people
in their power. to win or lose the
eventual race. Before the time ar
rives for the athletes to try out their
physical prowess, oil is discovered on
one of the wagered ranches thereby
enhancing its value great deal: he
possibility OF such a discovery was
not taken into consideration when
the wager was made; hence arises
the question of whether it would be
fair to carry out the original terms
on which the bet was based. Obviat-
ing the necessity of legal assistance,
nature allows things to take their
own course. ii. Theasolying Of this in

sorbing interest. ..Going Some" gives

CANTALOUPE DEAL IS
UNDER WAY; EARLY
ONES PEEP THRU SOLE

BRAWLEY, Jan. S-Imperial Val
ley's great 1920 cantaloupe deal is
well under way. With the earliest sea.
son in cantaloupe history predicted
and the largest acreage in the Valleys
history, Imperial is preparing to ship
one third of the cantaloupes of the
United States during the coming six
months.
The first cantaloupe vines broke thru
under the protecting paper caps in the
vicinity of Mesquite Lake this week
and the season at this year at this time
is fully three weeks advanced over any
| season hithertofore. AS usual the jap
| anese are the heaviest growers and it is
the vines Of the Japanese who are espec-
| tally anxious to beat the heavy pack
season shipments which have peeped
through the earth so far in advance of
the normal. Most Of the cantaloupes
which have thus far come up are on
the sunny sides of slopes and well pro-
tected. The white paper caps will have
to be kept in position for weeks to come.
Some Japanese this week expressed
the opinion that their brothers were
crazy in planting SO early for the build
of the enormous acreage, estimated
acreage, estimated at abov 10000 will
be planted within the next three weeks.
Whether the early planted vines sur

outs. The common basis for this years
contracts has been the dollar a crate
advance the same as last year. The
Japanese have asked for more and in
some cases declined to sign, but the
large acreage has made the distributors
apprehensive and they have steadfastly
refused to give more.
The Japanese association is handling
all the Japanese contracts.
Some of the larger of the distributors
are wondering if the enormous number
of ears which are needed during the
peak season can be secured and there
seems to be more of a go:easy and act
carefully spirit this year than ever be
n fore.
