ing loans upon hay:
To the federal farm loan board
WHEREAS there is harvested in
Imperial County annually approx,
mately 100 600 tons of alfalfa hay,
and
WHEREAS, there has been for
many wears past "A difference Of 10
to II dollars per ton between the
market price of such hay in the
summer months, when it is being
harvested and the market price
thereof in the winter months when
if is required for feeding purposes.
and
WHEREAS. owing to the fact
that rainfall is almost negligible in
Imperial County and to other favor.
able climatic conditions, hay stacked
in the field suffers little or no de-
tcrioration. and
WHEREAS, moving hay to and
from the warehouse and storing 1t
therein costs several dollars per
ton with little or no compensatin9
gain in the county. and
WHEREAS. there now is in Inn
perial County more than $4,000 head
Of dairy COWS and some 10000 head
of dry and young stock and each
year there is shipped into said coun-
ty for feeding and fattcning more
than $4,000 head Of feeder steers
and 10000 or more sheep, and
WHEREAS. practically all of the
hay harvested in said county is re-
Quircd for feeding purposes in the
very fields where it is harvested,
and
WWHEREAS, we believe and ur-
gently insist that balcd or loose hay
properly stacked and fenced in the
field in Imperial County when in
surcd against fire and theft con-
stitutcs as safe Il basis for loan as
hay stacked in the warehouse, and
WHEREAS. the market price of
hav now is very low and does not
exceed $1,000 per TON +. o. b. the
cars and the producers thereof are
suffering very severe losses by be-
mo compelled to sell at present
prices in order to meet harvesting
costs and current expenses, and
WHEREAS. under the laws, rules
and regulations of the Federal Farm
Loan board warehouse receipts only
will be accepted as a basis for loans
upon hay and then only to coopera-
tive marketing associations and not
i'm any event to the producer.
NOW THEREFORE,, in order to
promote the orderly marketing of
our hay and to meet very serious
situation among our farmers, we
most respectfully but urgently re
quest an immediate reconsideration
of the rules and regulations concern
ing loans upon hay as applied to the
farmers of Imperial County, Callfor-
mia. to the end that loans may be
made through qualified financing in
StitutionS and made available to the
producers upon loose or baled hay
properly stacked and fenced in the
field when insured against fire and
theft in the same manner as loans
are uow being made upon dairy
cattle.

Once at Princeton. Hector Cowan,
one Of the great tackles of all time,
was induced, to come to Nassau and
take charge of the tackle candidates
for few days. His method of in
struction was simple. He would take
a tackle candidate. shake his finger at
him and say:
NOw as soon as the ball is
snapped. YOU dive into your op-

the defending back il he tries to

Cowan never understood that what
he could do. the youngsters whom he
was trying to teach had not the

his work was futile.

Run it out, as the player on the left
