POTATO BULLETIN FROM
RAILWAY AGRICULTURIST

The present potato situation in Col
orado, to say the least, is perplexing
The division agricultural statistics of
Colorado state board of immigration,
in cooperation with division of crop
and livestock estimates of the United
Sttaes bureau of economics. in their
December crop report shows that Colo
RADIOS acreage of potatoes in 1929 was
more than 100000 acres, 80 per cent of
which was on irrigated land. The total
production for 1929 crop within Colo
. RADIO is given as more than $4,000, 900
bushels. The same authority gives the
1921 acreage as 1o1 900 acres, with a
total yield of 12,333,333 bushels.
Prices have, from the October harvest
e ing period, been deflected downward
far below cost of production and, be-
cause of the uncommonly large crop in
the late potato producing states of the
nation, there is no encouraging imme-
dinte market outlook. The United
States average annual production, the
United States bureau of agricultural
economies gives as 36s,Oo0,oO0 bushels
for the ten years 1911-l922. The pro-
duction in 1920 was 100000, 900 bush
els; 1921 was 362,oOo,OOO bushels and
1929 it was 451, ,o00, 900 bushels. This
Sshows the largest potato crop ever har-
vested in the nation, being 10000, 900
bushels more than the bumper crop Of
k1s17.

Searching Parties Out
for Gould, Palmer, Lost
on Desert Near Yuma

That Roscoe Gould, well-known;
manager of the Varney Company's
store in this city, and his companion,
Paul Palmer, manager of the firm s
Brawley store are lost on the des-
ert between here and Yuma follow
ing a night S exposure seems prob
able from the patching together of
mea ger bits of information avail
able in the local store at the time
of going to press.
Leaving Yuma last night, at 5 p.
m.,f Gould and Palmer started to
drive to this city, expecting to ar
rive here before midnight at the
latest. George Varney, president of
the firm, who was also in Yuma de-
cided to come back by train, and
upon his arrival here this morning,
discovered that his son-in-law, Gould
and his companion had not been
heard from.
Becoming alarmed on account of
the bad weather conditions, Var
new tried to trace the men, but could
get BIO telephone or telegraph com
munication as the wires were down
at that time. About ten O'Clock,
having received noe further news,
Varney, accompanied by Harry
Staub of, the local store, started out
Imperial Valley press., 1923-12-10

! in a machine from this city to try
and locate the men.
Three Parties Leave
Later a telegram from Herbert
Griffin, manager of the Yuma store
of the Varney company, was re-
ceived which only heightened the
mystery, as it stated that Gould 3
car had been located near Grey 8
Well, but that the road from Yuma
to that point was impossible. The
wire closed by suggesting that aid
be sent from this end, and made no
mention of how the ear happened to
be located, nor where its occupants
might possibly be.
Becoming more alarmed as the
hours passed, and no word came, A.
E. Crothers of the Ell Centre store,
accompanied by George Palmer,
brother of Paul Palmer, started out
and were followed by Oscar Sween-
ey and MeCrory making three par
ties in all now working TO find the
missing men. Considering the wealth
er conditions, there is much worry
about the missing men, but hope is
being held out that it is only lack
of communication facilities which is
responsible for their silence.

Garments Worth $4,000
Taken by Breaking

The Calexico branch of the Var
ney Company was treated to an un-
pleasant surprise when they opened
for business this morning and w. d.
Conser, Calexico manager, discov-
cred that goods valued at approx
mately $4,000 had been removed dur
ing the night from the women s
ready-to-wear department
According to Conser's statement,
which was immediately telephoned
to the general office of the firm in
this city, the thieves had entere /
from the vacant building next door
by tearing a good sized hole in the
thin lath and plaster partition
slightly above the floor.
They had cleaned up big part of
the stock of silk and evening dress
es, brush wool sweaters, silk under
garments and other expensive and
easily moved articles.
According to Chief of Police Joe
Hardwick of Calexico it seems abso-
lutely evident that the persons who
in stock, and picked out the most
did the work knew exactly what was
valuable garments with great precis-
ion. .s
Hardwick IS. theory. is that. the
merchandise is hidden somewhere in
Calexico, and will be. kept. out of
sight for the present. The police are
making every effort to locate the

PHOENIX MAN IS
FINED $l00 FOR
TRIP TO BORDER

. Another victim of Mexicai paid
the price of - the morning after in
the police court this, morning, when
Frederick Griffith of Phoenix, Ari-
zona, was fined 800 by Judge V. n.
Thompson for operating a car while
intoxicated. "t
Griffith was first picked up by
Sam Griffin yesterday evening, af-
ter complaint had been made to the
officer that the Arizona man had
run several ears off the Calexico
highway by his recklessncss. He was
driving a car which had been stolen
from Los Angeles and stated he was
on his way to that city with it, hav-
ing recovered it in Phoenix. His
story was checked up and found to
be true.
Instead of going through to los
Angeles however, Griffith stopped
over in Mexicali, intending to stay
only a few minutes, but it was con-
siderably longer than that before
he finally got under way. Griffin
gave him every opportunity to get
out of an embarrassing situation,
permitting him to go to hotel in
stead of the Jail. Evidently he did
not appreciate the officers consid-
Grafton, for late last night he was
found asleep in a vacant lot on Fifth
street by Officer Mayo. This time
he went to the city Jail, where he
remained overnight.
In court this morning, Griffith
expressed amazement when told of
his actions, and stated they were un-
known to him. 1t was the same old
story, and while undoubtedly true,
the court stated that such offenses
cannot be tolerated and imposed the
fine. Griffith departed to Los An
geles, sadder, poorer but wiser
man, vowing "never again."
