Eastside Sunset
Center Will Mark
Its Achievement

Eastside-Sunset, the second largest
farm center in California and the
largest in Imperial County, will eel.
ebrate the closing of membership
drive in which 240 new members
were gained, with barbecue dinner
provided by the losing contest team
on Friday night at the Shawver and
Harman ranch near the Sunset
school.
Over 800 members of the center
and their families will gather at
7:30 o clock from the vicinity of
Holtville at one of the biggest farm
center demonstrations in the histo-
ry of the Farm Bureau movement.
The chances for becoming. the lead
ing center of the state organization
are considered very good by Man
ager G. c. Jenkins of the local bu-
reau office, only a few more mem
bers being needed to gain the Gov
eted honor. The number includes
only paid.up memberships for 1924.
Mrs. r. f. Harman and Mrs. s..
f. Robinson were the leaders of the
teams during the drive, which was
won by the team headed by Mrs.
Harman The tact and perionality
of the two women and their ability
to present the membership alvant-
ages were largely responsible for the
success of the contest.
The spirit of cooperation as shown
by this center is one of the high
spots of farm center accomplish
ment, according to Manager Jenkins,
and shows that the value of the
Farm Bureau is "A recognized fac
tor in the life of'the rancher. Chair
man A. c. Finney of the Eastside-
Sunset center is quite proud of his
large showing and is planning for
future activities of the center.

In 1923 when it was being claimed
by agitators that freight rates were
running agriculture, the value Of farm
crops was sSo, 000 coo more than the
value of 1922 crops, according to esti-
mates made public by the Department
of Agriculture. The estimate places
the Dec. LIST value of 1923 crops at S.
1872, Cos, 900 compared to $7,449, 3O4, 900
in 1922. The corn crop brot the great
est individual return to the farmers and
showed an increase in value of 1902.
239, coo over the 1922 crop. The value
of the 1928 wheat crop was S1l7, OIL
600 less than the previous year. Both
the increase in the value of the corn
crop and the decrease in the value of
wheat crop took place during perions
in which there were no freight rate
changes affecting either product.

Attention is being called by
Washington newspapers to Mrs.
Magnus Johnson, wife Of the
Minnesota senator, who has de-
clined to mount the social ladder
now that she has reached the
Capital City as her home. They
call attention to the fact that she
has said she probbaly wouldn't
have any time to fritter away on
clubs, receptions, bridge parties
or politics, and in turning her
back On them she said she just
wanted to live her own life.
She says it ought not to be below
the dignity of Senator's wife
to do her own washing, sewing
and cooking. L shall look after
those things here just as | did
back in Minnesota. There is no
reason why l should not occupy
myself usefu]ly here, just as |
did on the farm
Sensible words from sensible
woman, and worth remembering.
There are so many people who
have made the saying Live your
own life mean all sorts of fooi-
i3hness, looseness and nonsense.
that it is refreshing to run across
one who puts sensible meaning
on the old saying.
There is no doubt but social
foolishness does much to keer
good men out of high politica
Offices, who wouldn't think of
seeking the place on account of
social customs. Such things
have ruined more than one good
statesman, and discouraged more
than one who wanted to do som e
thing for his country. So, re-
gardless of what kind Of a states
man Magnus johnson makes, ii
he fails, he can't say he lacked
the backing Of a sensible wife
a women who does not consider
housework degrading.

 Good led the Blues to the champion ship of the American association last year and then defeated the strong Bal timore team of the International league in the little world series.
 Good batted 1850 in 154 games and has been hitting at stronger clip this season. He will report to the team in New Orleans Friday, although he may be delayed and join the Crack CTS here Monday.
 Just who Niehoff will release to make room for the new flychaser is doubtful. The locals are now carry ing three catchers as Homer Haworth has an injured finger.

 1z... Two times Tuesday the Travellers - were trOunced. The Chattanooga LOOkOuts took a pair of games, 6 to and 6 to 2. Doc Newton, vet with the BarOns was beaten fin the second game though he held the Chattanooga team to seven hits, three errors behind him counted against him.
 The Barons took a miserable beating in New Orleans, 13 to 8. Roy Walker, former semi-pro from Troy, was knocked from the box by the Pelicans after nine runs and eight hits had been obtained off him. He went out in the fourth.
 The Nashville Vols won a queer battle from Memphis. The Vols counted three in the first inning and WarmOth and LindstrOm tangled up in a pitchers duel for the rest of the way to the ninth. In the ninth Memphis batters got five consecutive hits and scored five runs. The Vols came back in their half and scored three to win, 6 to 5. The old punching power which once made the Yankee batting order famous under the name of Murderers' Row, returned in the eighth inning of Tues days ball-game between the Tanks and the St. Louis Browns on the New York lot. Four consecutive singles by Witt; Dugan, Ruth and Bob Meusel, scored two runs. tied the count at A and chased Urban Shocker, the Browns pitcher,Out of the box. Another run came in before the inning closed and the Tanks won to 4.
 
 The Washington club won from the Indians in Washington, 4 to 2, even though Buck Harris, the young manager of the capital team was under suspension for poor de- pertinent on the field. Covaleskie of the Indians started wildly, fore ing in two runs in the first and Walter Johnson breeRed along to NANNOAJ HI uA6 Olu dkCs The Senators thus maintained a close pursuit of the Yankees who lead the league by a slight margin.
 
 The other two games also were won by first division clubs.
 The White Sox made it three straight, beating the Red Sox in Bos- ton, 8 to 6, and the Tigers out-swatted the Athletics in Philadelphia, Il to g. There were 2S hits in this game.
 
 In the National league the Cubs dropped their fourth consecutive game to the Giants, to 4, and the Brooklyn Dodgers, who beat the Cardinals in St. Louis by the score of to 4, came very close to the second division berth of the Chi cago team. The Cubs wide margin has now been shaved down to one and one half games.
 
 The Pirates beat the PhiIs in Pitts burg, 8 to 1, and the Reds won from the Braves in Cincinnati, 2 to 9. Carl Mays, the discharged American league pitcher, hurled the shut-out, allowing the Braves seven hits.
