lis in lorida, Hastings, Nebr., Texas,
Louisiana, and Norfolk, Va Florida
is handicapped by torrential rains;
the Hastings and Norfolk districts
are small, and production methods
are so backward in Louisiana and
Texas that the competition In these
states is nominal only.
Now TO speak particularly Of the
Salt River valley Early potatoes
grown here last year sold at 81 a
bushel-surely good price. l have
not sufficient data concerning the
lateness of killing frosts in this sec
ton, but from what / understand
from local producers. there are no
such frosts after February. IL this is
true. and making my assertion upon
authentic, accurate and reliable in
formation, / say confidently that the
Salt River valley can enter the early
potato markets 80 or even 40 days
ahead of almost any competition.
Can Increase Yield
"The wields here can be increased
to the maximum by a knowledge of
correct cover crops and commercial
fertilizers and by a maximum / mean
that the present crop TO the acre
here can be increased n full 100 per
cent. You will have to pay higher
freight rates to the market, and per-
haps your commercials will be high
er, but these will be compensated by
a larger yield and an earlier market.
There is no question of the soil
and climatic conditions here, ] un-
derstand there is no question, either,
Of water conditions, and in this last
requisite the Salt River valley Is in
finitely better provided for than
Florida, for instance. where rains OF
so inches a year must be contended
with.
ITO obtain the results outlined in
the foregoing It is essential that the
seed stocks shall be grown at high
attitudes. as at Flagstaff. This stock
must be free from disease, be OF the
varieties fitted to this valley and
adapted to conditions here. and yield
ing large returns. The methods OF
growing the seed should be taught to
the growers by expert agencies, and
the seed will have to be imported.
for there Is no really good early
potato seed produced In America.
''The seed must be harvested be-
fore the tubers have ripened. and
then must be planted whole" In con-
nection with this assertion, Mr..
Grubb cited an article in the "North
British ABriculturlSt, tHe lehulHS
farming journal Of the British Isles,
corroborating his remarks.
Cali that have said in this inter-
view is q demonstrable fact" he said
in closing his remarks. "The Salt
River valley Is the early potato dis
trict without comparison in the
United States"

car which followed the interview. Mr..
Grubb and Mr.. Mccormick devoted

OF Mr.. Grubbs achievements, upon
the latter's having brought the ia

enthusiastically Of this breed.
"He is short coupled, the best type
of riding horse. the greatest cavalry

in the world" he declared. The

AL|EN|STS TESTIFY
ALCOHOLISM MIGHT
HAVE CAUSED DEATH
Of VIRGINIA RAPPE
IRepubIlcan A. p. Leased WIreJ


SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26-More
| evidence intended to show that Miss
! Virginia Rappe, motion picture
actress, died as the outcome of a
| chronic bladder complaint and not as
| the result of a supposed attack by
| Roscoe G. (Fatty) Arbuckle. was ad-
| duced today in the second trial of a
manslaughter charge against Ar
buckle.
DR.. George Franklin Shiels, major
| in the United States army medical
corps in the Spanish and World wars
and defense alienist in the first trial
of Harry X. Thaw, testified that
| spontaneous ruptures of the bladder
were possible.
He illustrated on the court black
| board the manner in which such rup-
lures might be caused by muscular
contraction due to alcoholism, hys-
terra and other causes
A series of hypothetical questions
whereby the defense endeavored to
connect certain incidents concerning
Miss Rappes physical condition with
the rupture which caused her death
were ruled out by the court on the
prosecutions objection to them.
"In answer to a question as to
whether he had partisan interest in
the trial." DIR. Shiels emphatically
answered, "no" and chided the de-
fense for asking the question.
Coughing, sneezing or sudden i'm
mersion in a tub of cold water might
cause rupture of an over -distented
bladder. DIR. Shiels testified. Miss
Rappe was given cold bath i'm
mediately after having suffered the
injuries alleged to have been caused
by Arbuckle.
Under cross examination the doctor
said he had never heard OF rupture
being caused by sudden immersion in
cold water. Injuries of the nature
involved as Every rarely" caused by
coughing or sneezing, he said.
Find Defense Witness
DIR. Shiels was announced as the
final witness for the defense. He stil
was under examination at adjourn
ment.
DIR. A. w. Collins, San Francisco
surgeon and defense expert was asked
a hypothetical question aIong the line
| of those asked DIR. Shiels, but the
court ruled against it.
DIR. Collins said that he had studied
a case of spontaneous rupture of a
woman's bladder in Vienna. in 1913,
but had no personal knowledge of any
other ease of such type of rupture.
Under cross examination he read
medical literature on other spontan-
eous bladder ruptures, stating that
such literature in a period of 3S years
mentioned only five such injuries.
While Miss Rappe's bladder was
shown to have been inflamed in places
preceding the rupture. there was
nothing to show that the organ at the
point of the rupture was previously
impaired in any way. he said.
Spontaneous rupture of the fe-
male bladder is very rare" he said.
The defense announced that a three
weeks search for Mrs. Irene Morgan
Of Pasadena, former nurse to Miss
Rappe, had failed of results. 1t was
believed by counsel, however. that she
had taken trip out of the country
which she had planned after the
former trial of Arbuckle
A tense situation was created dur
ing that trial when it was announced
that Mrs. Morgan had been poisoned
mysteriously after giving her testi-
mony.

America May Be
Represented At
Genoa Meeting
Republican A. p. Leased WIre1

PARIS, Jan. 26.--It was reliably
stated tonight that George Harvey.
American ambassador to Great Brit
ain will tell Premier Poincare. during
his brief soJourn here on his way
from Cannes to London, that the
United States may yet consider being
represented at the Genoa economic
conference, provided France will con-
sent to full participation.
This was the view expressed to-
night subject to any further instruc-
tons the ambassador may receive
from Washington as to the course to
be taken toward the Genoa confer
ence. Mr.. Harvey's interview with
the premier Is expected to take place
tomorrow.
Ambassador Harvey said he would
take the opportunity OF making clear
the American viewpoint on the Genoa
conferen specifically and to the
economic and financial question gem
orally. He said he would see as many
representatives of the French gov
ernment as possible.
Mr.. Harvey also will hold a con-
ference with Myron T. Herrick, Ann
erican ambassador to France.
1t was understood that Mr.. Har-
vey probably will inform Premier
Polncare that the American govern
ment feels that the Genoa conference
will be worthless or at least Of little
value unless France Fundamentally
takes part.
