San DIEGO BANKER
MAKES TOUR OF
VALLEY

CALEXICO, March %. - d. M.
Plaster, assistant cashier of the South
crn Trust and Commerce Bank of San
Diego, has just left Calexico for home,
after or inspection trip of the agricul-
tural conditions in the entire valley.
Mr.. Plaster was much gratified at
the splendid condition Of business as
he found it in the valley. He was par
ticularlv interested in the lettuce crop
and figures from the data he gathered
on his trip that the valley will be richer
bv almost $5,0O0,000 from this season s
crop alone.
Up tothe present time approximately
1000 carloads of lettuce have been
shipped from the valley, which brings
to the grower in round numbers $l,20o
per car. With further shipments to be
made the total it is estimated Will
easily reach the five million mark.
The daily shipments east from Cal
cxico have averaged thirty-five ears for
the season for the early morning
through freight over the Southern Pa
tific lines, and two later trains IN the
dav carry from four to seven cars each
Local growers and packers are well
pleased with the result of the season SO
far, and everybody connected with the
industry from the worker in the field
TO the owner himself, is jingina

Lanyard went to bed, the last night
out, leaving a noisy gathering in the
saloon, and read himself drowsy. Then
turning out his light he slept. Some
time later he found himself instantan-
feously awake, and alert, with a clear
head and every faculty on the qui
vive.
He felt a presence, and knew that
it waited, stirless, within arms length
of his head. Without much concern,
he thought of Popinot, that "phan-

'They say it's the right name Of

"'They say? Who, please, are

"Oh. there's a lot Of talk going
