 The new Walsh In the offing is John Jackson Walsh, and he says that if the sovereign voters of the Old Bay State are so well pleased with one Walsh in the Senate there is no reason why they should not have another. So far as known here. John Jackson Walsh Is no relation to Senator David I. Walsh except that he is a democrat and holds the sham rock to be the worlds greatest plant product. As matter of fact, John Jackson Walsh is set down by the Massachusetts politicians as a Sim Feiner representing the most radical wing of the Irish voters of the democ- racy.

FARM HAS BIG CROP
EARLY SWEET SPUDS

Superintendent Yancy n. Adams of
the Imperial County Hospital and
farm is harvesting his first crop of
January sweet potatoes. Incidentally,
Adams claims, this is the first time
sweet potatoes have been harvested
in this county or any other county in
California. The crop is the result of
careless gathering of the summer
crop, according to the superintendent.
1t seems that the work of gardening
the summer sweet potatoes was left
to several old men inmates of the
hospital and they We're permitted to
do it in their own way.
They left potatoes here and there
in the ground. Heavy rains in Sep
tember completely soaked the ground
where the potatoes had been growing.
In short time sweet potato vines
were observed sprouting throughout
the field and the superintendent, de-
Gliding to let them grow as an exper-
iment, furnished them with additional
water. A plentiful crop this month
Twas the result.

Famous University Specialist

The Agricultural Extension Service
for Imperial County announces that
Dr.. j. R. Beach, Poultry Disease Spe-
cialist of the Veterinary Division of
the University of California VIII be in
Imperial county Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, January 10, 20 and 81.
DR.. j. R. Beach has a nation wide
reputation for the remarkable work
that he has been doing or poultry dis
eases, and his coming here is hailed
with delight by poultry raisers. DR.
Beach will demonstrate methods Of
determing poultry diseases and will
also demonstrate methods of controll-
ing these diseases.
While Imperial county is fortunate
IN the small number Of diseases among
the poultry, the fact still remains
that these few diseases are causing
enormous losses. The majority of
poultry raisers in the county have
never taken vigorous steps to control
or eradicate disease from their flocks.
The explanation lies in the fact that
many owners We're not aware as to
the nature Of the diseases and others,
even knowing the diseases, We're un-
able to cope with them successfully.
Tentati Demonstrations
Detailed schedule of dates and
places will be announced later. The
demonstrations Will take place about

LITTLE TRACTORS ARE
PULLING HEAVY LOADS

Much interest is being shown in two
rubber tired Fordsons, equipped with
extension cleats, that are helping
move the large warehouse stock of
Edgar Bros. Company from Imperial
to FL Centre, which moving started
Tuesday, January 10.
Each of these Fordsons is pulling
two wagons which totals Approximate
ly six tons. The distance from I'M
perial to Ell Centro is travelled in one
hour and twenty-five minutes, with
the roads in the present condition.
The extension cleats on the rear
wheels assuring good traction in soft
going. The circumference of the eX-
tension rim is two inches less than
the rubber tires, which are 40X5 and
the rims are so tempered as to wear
proportionately with the rubber tire
A provision is made for greater
traction when required, in that ballast
may be placed in rear wheels which
are hollow.
The tractor is also equipped with
brakes.
When the roads get in better con
dition, more wagons will be added tC
these Fordsons, to insure the moving
of the entire warehouse stock before
February /, if possible.

FRIDAY THIRTEENTH
NOT RESPONSIBLE

That unusual Importance is attached
to the number 13 is the honest belief
of great many people ard as a
class Of those folk are not surprised
when something does happen in con-
nect;on with that number.
Particularly is this true when it
happens on Friday the 18th. 50 it
was not perhaps out of line with this
belief when a runaway team dashed
madly down State street and through
the window display of the Hodges
Auto and Loan Company this morning.
The big plate glass was completely
smashed and a new Studebaker car
badly scratched. The horses, 1900 tie
weight, were slightly cut on the legs
and shoulders but not seriously dam
aged as result of the accident
Manager Tom Beeman of the
Hodges Auto and Loan Company said
That the number Is had nothing to
do with the accident however, that
the horses felt that they had been
humiliated long enough by Studebaker
cars passing them on the road and
that they merely wanted to get look
at one of the new 1922 models at
close range" as this seemed to be a
satisfactory explanation for the con-
duct of the runaway team it was de-
cided that the horses would not be
prosecuted for their enthusiasm about
"Studebakers".

Clear Weather Puts Packers
to Work. HcltviIe Section
is Looming Up as Heavy
Producer. Market Steady.

Valley lettuce shipments are fast
getting back to normal. Clear weather
with gentle, steady, drying winds
have improved conditions so that
growers can get their product to the
packing sheds and the expert gangs at
work there do the rest
The United States Bureau O
Markets report that Wednesday last
48 cars were shipped to market from
various Valley points and 80 cars, the
day previous, the first day the packers
resumed work after the storm of last
week. This makes a total of 779 car
loads of Imperial "icebergs" sent to
market since the season opened the
middle of December.
To Ship 5000 Cars
Growers here estimate that 5000
cars of lettuce will be shipped out of
the Imperial Valley this year, and
that many carloads will 90 from the
HoltV!lle section which was only this
fall largely opened up to the produc-
ton of lettuce, and early peas. This
is an increase of about 80 per cent of
the lettuce which was shipped out last
season, which was said to be of the
biggest in the Valleys history.
Several sheds have already been
built adjacent to Holtville which will
facilitate the nearby growers ship
ping lettuce, and one is now under
construction opposite the depot there,
where Dee Kimura will ship out many
carloads during the present season,
but which will mean a greater avenue
of shipment next year, when an even
greater acreage of lettuce is antic-
pated by growers or that section
which has, for the first time, thi
season converted many hundreds of
acres to the production of lettuce.
More Acres Planted
