hARLINGEN, Oct. 24.-More than
4;OOo Valley people crowded into
hariingen Tuesday afternoon and
evening for two concerts by Sousa
and his band.
"A check made today Of the receipts
showed a total of 4,10s tickets issued
the W performances, just about
filiing the large auditorium of the
city Tor both programs. A few seats
were vacant.
And the thousands who gathered
10 near Sousa and his band were not
disappointed in the programs.
In fact. they insisted that Sousa
play all the Moore listed with a few
exceptions, and tried to keep the
band after the finale, but without
success.
The two programs were preceded
by q Valley high school band con-
test. with Sousa as the judge, in
which the Harlingen band won the
Sousa loving cup for first prize
with a total of 65 points out Il 4
possible 20. Mission was second with
so points, and Weslaco, the only
other band entered, al last.
Long before the afternoon concert
started the huge auditorium wa
practically filled. with hundreds and
hundreds of automobiles lining al
Of the streets in and around the fair
grounds.
The afternoon concert and evening
concert were different. with a num-
Der of persons attending boz.
At his night concert Sousa was
forced TO play encore after encore
The audience was pleased with all
Of the numbers, but particularly
with Sousa's own band pieces, hrs
STARS and Stripes Forever" bring
ing more applause than any other
selection during the evening.
In this piece the comets, from
bones and flutes. numbering from
six to eight Of each, march out TO
the front Of the stage, and the piece
is finished in a crescendo OF brass
and reed that fairly fills the audi
forum with sound.
One of the most impressive selec-
tions played during the evening per-
formance was Richard Strauss
symphonic poem. death and Trans
figuration." The almost wierd COM
position, rich in its rising emotion,
was played with appreciation by the
band of the famous band musician.
Sousa furnished plenty Of light
amusement for his audience during
the concerts. with a barrel Of mu-
steal tricks up his sleeves. One mu-
stefan in particular amused and
pleased the audience. This was How
ard Coulden, who during the course
of each concert played some dozen
or more instruments, ranging from
xylophone and drum to an instru-
ment initiating the Growing Of a
rooster.
And above il all stood the we'll
poised figure Of Americas most be-
loved figure in musie-Sousa. In
spite of his "a years, the famous
band master and composer led his
band with vigor. and always with
grace. His easy motions waved the
audience, as they did the band, and
the thousands who came 70 Harlin-
gen, and heard Sousa and his band
were more than pleased with every
part Of the program.

Replant Onions

fSrecial 10 The Herald)
RAYMONDVILLE, Oct. 24.-Many
farmers in Willacy county are pre-
pairing TO replant their entire acre
age in onions, while others report
only a poor stand. The seed this
year were planted rather deep, in
order to insure sufficient moisture
to terminate them, and then a heavy
rain fell. AS a result the soil was
packed, and the plants were unable
to break through the crust formed
after the rain.
Some farmers have run a fine tooth
harrow over their onion fields, in the
hope that the seed will yet come up,
but others have already begun re-
planting. From 5000 10 5000 acres
were planted in the county TO this
crop this fall. and a good yield was
expected. October is the month for
planting. and those familiar with
the crop state that any time during
the month will be satisfactory.

He represented Secretary Jardine at the dedica- ton ceremony March 3. in which California state officials partici- pated.

Several slaughter. houses are operated in the Los Angeles district where from 25,. 900 to 50,000 rabbits month are killed, dressed, and marketed for hotels, restaurants and home tables.
