w. s. Wilkinson, of the state de-
partment of agriculture, is in South
ern California on seed inspection
and in conference with seedsmen
and county horticultural commission
crs regarding the enforcement of
the seed law. He is also inves-
tigating the situation with regard
to cotton inspection, with the idea
in view of establishing u state cot
ton class service.
The cotton growers of the I'm
perial and Calaveras valleys have
been insisting for >some time that
steps be taken by the director of
agriculture to establish cotton
grades which in this commodity
are called "classes.'
The United States, department
of agriculture has recommended in
spectors who are available for car
rying on this work, and it is hoped
that it will be possible to under,
take the CHASING of cotton with
in the near future.

Cooperation In
Marketing Wins
Rhubarb Grower

One more clear demonstration of
the benefits of cooperative market
ing of farm products is apparent in
the successful results obtained by
the California rhubarb growers as
sociation of Alameda county, a CO.
operative marketing organization
recently formed with the aid of the
state market director.
The association, representing 95
per cent of the. rhubarb acreage of
Alameda county, has just issued its
annual report which shows a bust
ness handled for the season of more
than 900. The cost of hand
ling this business amounted to
$1,000, or barely 11a per cent. SO
far as is known, this is the lowest
operating cost of any association
in the west, and is remarkable
example of economic efficiency.
The marketing association was
organized early in 1923, and en-
abied the growers to dispose of the
entire crop at prices which averag

The rivalry between the girls in the

New York An open
air gymnasium on the boat deck of the
Southern Gross, Of the Munson Line, Is
proving very popular with tourists
Passengers may exercise there IN
dozen different ways as the liner
speeds through tropical waters to or
from New York and the big East coast
ports of South America. Though many
ocean liners have indoor gymnasiums.
but few of them have exercising aPPa-
ratus out of doors, where the sun and
fresh air aid the tourist in keeping IN
physical trim.
The aft part of the boat deck of the
Southern Cross is the scene of most OF
the games played aboard the liner. 1t
is equipped with awning stanchions, so
that when the sun plays down too hotly
it may be pleasantly shaded. Here
tennis nets are stretched, with canvas
and net back stops to prevent balls
from being knocked overheard. Hand
ball, with the canvas stop taking the
part of a wall, is also played here sue
cessfully by enthusiasts at the game.
Deck croquet, deck golf and shuttle
board also have their place.
Gymnasium equipment is sufficient to
enable tourists to build up strength in
many different ways. There are weight
exercising machines, "horses," horizon
tai bars, punching bag and gloves for
the boxer.
The deck steward on the Southern
Gross is a trained athlete, and when
he finds some of his passengers really
interested in keeping in good trim
while on the liner, arranges training
programs for them. Each trip of the
Munson liner finds this steward earn
estly instructing a class in physical
culture. Setting up exercises, work at
the weights, on the bars, with the
gloves and at the bag all have their
part in the course.
These classes are as popular with
the women as the men. ALFRED in
