The ruling was asked in the
ease of an insurance company

Arizona Melon
Crop Is Proving
Disappointment

According to report issued by
the bureau of agricultural economies,
the 1925 Arizona cantaloupc season
is not proving as satisfactory as at
first anticipated.
This is laid in part TO the late
heavy movement from Imperial Val
ley, the early movement from Ark,
ausas, an abundance of other fruits
and the fact that the quality of the
stock arriving on the terminal mar
kcts from other sections is in some
cases very poor.
The unusually warm weather dur
ing June FASTENED the maturity of
the crop and the first ear from the
Salt River Valley was reported out
on June %. This was Il week ear
licr than last year, the season of
1924 being about normal, and the
covered acreage, which is usually
consumed locally, made up most of
the early movement.
The movement from the Yuma dis
trict, which is more closely related
10 the Imperial Valley got under
way shortly after the first of June
and was nearly finished by July
-.
Acreage in Salt River Valley
The acreage devoted to canta-
loupes in the Salt River Valley this
season is placed at approximately
J40O acres, or an increase of APP
proXimatcly 80 per cent over last
season.
The acreage in the Yuma district
this season was also increased slight
lY, but with favorable weather con
ditionS, slightly more than 200
ears were moved from the district
rs compared to only seven ears last
year when the crop was almost n to-
tai failure. The acreage was plac-
ed at 600 this season as compared
to 800 last year.

Weekly News Letter
From State College
J. C. TAYLOR,
NE FURROW DRILL.


There is hope that the introduction
Of the furrow drill will revive winter
wheat production in central Montana.
This area of the state, cnce a leading
winter wheat producing section has,
in the past few years, gradually
changed from winter to spring wheat
because Of the severe winter losses
and high percentage of abandonment
experienced with the fall planted
crop. The furrow drill gives promise
of bringing on a winter wheat reviv-
al in this section of the state.
In tests at the Moccasin Expert
mental farm covering a period of four
years, starting with 1920, winter
wheat planted with a furrow drill has
given an average yield of elk bushels
more per acre than wheat planted in
the usual way. During the past win
ter, when losses were unusually great,
wheat planted with a furrow drill
showed approximately Is per cent
Abandonment, while abandonment in
fields planted by the ordinary method
was approximately 80 per cent.
The experimental results and the
Confederation Of these results in ac-
tual farm tests have brought about a
renewed interest in winter wheat III
the Judith Basin country. Whether
or not the furrcw drill will produce
equally good. results in other sections
of the state where conditions are diff
ferent, has not yet been determined.
Clyde Mckee, agronomist of the Mon
tana Experiment station, advises that
the furrow drill has been found par
ticularly effective on soil which is
inclined to elbow" badly and in the
areas where winter injury is severe
kThis type Of drill has not been found
advantageous in planting spring
wheat, and it is thought that its chici
usefulness viii be found under con.
ditions similar to those in the judith
Basin country.

Opium Traffic Grows;
Nations Not Sincere

Geneva, Switzerland, Sept. 5.-The
opium traffic cannot be controlled be-
cause it is impossible to depend upon
the honesty of some governments,
said Sir John Campbell, of India, be
fore the league of nations opium adj
vistory committee.
1t was stated that the traffic is
larger than at any time since the
commission was organized. Manufac-
turers and a well organized distribu-
ton syndicate have vast resources and
nearly a score of factories exist in
various countries, Sir John said.
League statistics show that approx
mately 1000 chests of opium were
shipped to the Orient the past year,
although conditions in Europe and
North America are improving. 1t is
impossible for conditions in China to
be worse, it is said.
Sir John Jordan, aged British anti
narcotic crusader, defended the Amer
lean delegates, who recently withdrew
from the opium conference. He said
the only remedy for this vii was to
stop production at its source instead
of permieting manufacture and then
seeking to control distribution.

Sliding Scale Plan
Rejected by Miners

Philadelphia, Sept, 5.--The scale
committee of anthracite mine oper-
ators have declared for method of
wage adjustments from time to time
to allow prices for our product that
will enable it TO move freely In COM
petition with other fuels
This has aroused the miners who
say il means a sliding scale, with no
means a perpetual contract based on
market conditions, without regard for
their welfare.
The miners declare they have
passed beyond the age of serfdom.
They point to conditions in the British
coal fields, which, they assert, is the
result of the sliding scale, under which
the wages '.slide only one way--tlown.
Both sides agreed on plan to pro-
tect mines while the work suspension
is on. The terms include the employ
ment of 10000 pumpmen, engineers,
electricians, watchment and other
maintenance men. Wages for these
workers will be the same as when the
miners and operators eventually reach
a settlement, and will date back to
September /.
Any differences arising in the mines
under this agreement shall be referred
to the district conciliation board.

Market is "Rigged'
by Daring Gamblers

New York, Sept. 5.-To those per
sons who consider the New York stock
exchange a barometer of industrial
conditions, and who believe it is guided
by the law of supply and demand, the
following excerpt from the New YORK
Times financial columns will be of
interest:
at was generally admitted yester-
dav that the stock market is now dom
mated absolutely by a few pools and
a few market leaders, who, barring
unforeseen catastrophies, have no idea
of allowing the situation to slip away
from them. During the last few days
few brokerage houses who are IN
the confidence and, it may be said, IN
tn emalov of these market leaders,
have been ablt to dope out the mar
ket almost from hour to hour In their
morning instructions to customers.
One of them advised yesterday that
stocks would be irregular during the
morning, stronger during the noon
hour and would close at about the
high prices of the day, which was ap-
proximately what happened. If the
opening is to be a strong one, and the
closing irregular, they seem to know
that, too.
'The explanation seems to be that
the market is aking the tip for its
rend from few leading issues, and
that those who are running the market
in those issues have had their cam
paigns planned several hours ahead OF
situation is or is not healthy, opin-
ion seems to differ

ChicagO-New York Cable
New Era i'm Telephony

Chicago, Sept. "a new era IN tel.
ephony was marked when b0O-mile
cable, ss2 miles In length. connecting
Chicago and New York, was placed IN
service recently by the American Tele.
phone and Telegraph company
This cable Is the longest overland
wire carrier in the world. Most Of the
construction Is overhead, the cable be
ing suspended from poles, while lia
miles IL in conduits underground II
cost $4,000, 900.
The circuits can be used for tele-
graphbusness simultaneously with the
telephone conversations. and should the
circuits be developed into duplex cir
cults where telegraph messages are
sent and received at the same time,
the cable can handle $40 telegraph
messages and 25s conversations at the
same time.
The company engineers state that
this project means the eventual dong
away with all open wire' eommunnl-
cation with a consequent lowering OF
the hazard Of wind and rain storms.
The heavy lead-sheathed cables with
great tensile strength, have been
known to lay upon the ground for
miles, blown down In severe storms,
and still carry on" the simultaneous
telephone and telegraph connections
This cable was designed In 1913 to
serve the area east Of the Mississippi
river and north Of the Ohio and Poto-
mac rivers. An additional underground
cable connects Milwaukee with Chicago

continuous good standing membership.
A pcnsioner could work two days u
week at his trade.
The new law raises the aye limit 10
90 years and the good standing quail
heation to 2b years. Pensions will be
paid only In case Of total disability
for work at the trade or failure TO
secure sustaining employment In 9th

The Go years clause will be en-
forced one year at time. effective
Immediately Between January l.,

cants shall be 62 years of age; be-
tween January /, 1927, and Decem-
ber 81. 1923, applicants shall be 63

cants shall be 81 years of age, and
from and after January |, 1880. appli-
eants shall be 90 years of age.
These changes were made on rec
ommendation of the actuary employed
