Mrs. Ermine Colavito, a midwife,
was attending my wife and came to
me one day and told me that / could
make $1,000 to do the job.
Mrs Colavito told me that she
had tried to poison Kaber several

Mrs. Kaber didn't like her husband
any more and wanted to get rid of
him. 1 and vittorio Pisselli were
hired to do the job, and Mrs. Cola

ised us $4,000 IL we would do the job.

FIND GRAFT RAMPANT

The Attorney Generals attitude
that the Governments cases growing
out of the present Investigations
might be prejudiced by premature
announcement Of specific details and
other facts regarding Identity of
groups in trade lines under sus-
picion renders It likely that no
official announcements of the actual
progress made can be authorized
until a few weeks have elapsed.
But the positive statement of the
Attorney General that the prelim-
mary stages of the Investigations
have revealed shocking examples of
graft with tremendous losses to the
taxpayers, fully warrants the as
sumption, officials seid, that tho
probes now planned will be some
thing else besides a few legal skir-
mishes with "white-washing" results.

crop year will be of interest: Last
spring the general belief of users and
dealers was that California would
nave 2 much increased production Of
alfalfa, including that of marketing
hay, much larger than could be con-
sumed in the state, and that this fact
IN connection with that of the unfa-
vorable general business and financial
situation would bring prices down to
next to nothing.
AS an illustration, we would men,
/. ton that some of the leading Los An
geles hay dealers in their market re-
ports earlier in the season suggested
as the only possible relief the ship
ment of this big surplus to Kansas.
where there was a crop shortage of
alfalfa this year. At that time the
price Of alfalfa hay in Kansas CITY
was, lower than in Les Angeles!
We do not mention this with anv in
tention of rubbing it in"; the only
reason why we knew better was that
we were in closer touch with the
growers all over the state than the
dealers could possibly be regarding
the production. especially that of mar
keting hay. The cash outlay requir-
ed in addition to labor, etc., in pro.
ducing marketing hay, in the face of
very unfavorable money and credit
conditions and of low prices, were fac.
tors which in their combination re-
duced the production of marketing
nay IN many parts Of the state to such
an extent that there is now no talk
any more of surplus.
All this would, however, have done
the grower no good; the market
would undoubtedly have gone to as
low as $40 in San Francisco and Los
Angeles if it had not been for the ac-
tivity OF the association in bringing
out the real facts of the situation as
regards production, stocks, ETC., and
IN having been able, through this, to
obtain the cooperation of our men,
