However, in different localities, particularly on the Sinaloa river, some of the growers have been hard hit by frost which killed of consider able early planting and which may cut down this season's pro- ducGion.
 Iu previous years," he con- tinued, the crop has been broub- led by bugs. There is a man on the job in the vicinity of Los Mochis who is fighting the to- mato insects and is very success ful;"
 Shipments should begin to arrive through this port about December 2Oth. The planting time is between the middle of September and January 1st. Fully 75 per cent of the west coast crop will be sold west of the Mississippi and the remain ing 25 per cent will be sold in the east and Canada.
