ator James E. Watson and Governor
Warren T. McCray yesterday after
noon gained control of the Republican
state committee, which the former and
his political lieutenants have been try

They elected Lawrence Lyons of
Brook, director of the state highway
commission, to be chairman OF the Re-
publican organization, to succeed Ed
ward NJ Wasmuth, Huntington, who
was not an ayowed candidate to sue
coed himself. The fight was one of
the bitterest and most spectacular
staged within the Republican party in
recent years.
Albert j. Beveridge, who waS nom
mated at the primary last week to sue
coed Senator Harry S. New, took no
apparent part in the contest. 1t was
stated emphatically by his close
friends who helped to manage his cam
paign that he was not concerned over
the reorganization of the state COM
mittee. Fred Schortemeier, of Indian
apolis, who has been secretary of the
committee for two years. was re-elect-

George Elliott of Newcastle was
elected sixth district chairman by ac-
clamation when the county chairman
in that district adjourned in dead
lock between Elliott, Lyons man, and
Howard Roberts of Greenfield, an anti
Lyons man.

Big HATCHERY IS
LOCATED NEAR

With a total egg capacity of 65,
600 eggs a month and with over $780,
600 invested, the Imperial Valley
Hatchery, located at the west edge OF
FL Centre, is one of the new indust-
ries in the valley that is claiming
the attention of the rancher and the
poultry man.
A revelation awaits those who have
not visited this hatchery. The infor-
nation that a hatchery had com
menced operation in the valley was
received by many with the thought
that probably a half dozen incubat-
ors comprised the plant of this COM
pany, and it is with expressions of
surprise that visitors first visit the
plant. The plant is equipped with 6S
incubators which are set in rotation,
insuring the baby chick buyer Of a
new hatch every day.
The main hatchery is 100 feet long
and twenty EIGHT feet wide and half
of the building is below the surface
of the ground. The incubators stretch
out in long rows, one on each side
and two down the middle and already
the demand for baby chicks has neces-
STATED the placing of additional incu-
bators on top of the first ones.
The hatchery matches out about l.
900 chicks a day and these are find

One of the features of the plant is
that the flocks from which setting
eggs are received are thoroughly in
spected and culled, thus assuring tol

The famous Washington correspon-

that the farmer is in the saddle at
Washington. He said that the Agricul-
tural Bloc in Congress, had been
strong enough to put through many
measures Of vast benefit to farmers,
and to block most legislature opposed
to the farmers interests.
This is the first time anything like
that has happened since Hector was
a pup. Why did it happen? Largely
because of the American Farm Bureau
Federation. Hapgood, in accounting
for the strength Of the Agricultural
Bloc, said that it depended largely for
its strength upon the Farm Bureau
Federation, and there you are!

and Tremendous Production
With Same Handling

That cne-man farm idea is gaining
momentum and that many OF the
people working on salaries are now
looking to the one man farm as
means of q livelihood is the opinion
of many OF the real estate men IN the
valley.
Every day the realty dealers report
that interest in small tracts IS grow
ing and since the recent drastic
freeze in the citrus belt many Of the
citrus growers of Riverside and Or
ange counties are turning their eyes
to the valley as being the most logi-
cal place in southern California for
the 1rowth Of citrus products and
grapes.
Statistics are not now available to
show just what can be accomplished
on a small tract but the opinion IS
universal that a small tract of land
properly farmed will produce as
nluch as larger tracts half farmed
and that d good substantial living
can be produced on few acres.
Every once in awhile one hears Of
cases where fabulous returns have
been realized from an acre or two
of asparagus or other crops and IN
stances are many throughout the val

grapes is claiming considerable at

are to be planted to grapes and sold
