Field. he narrowly averted a tragedy
Is the crowd swamped onto the
field, in imminent danger from the
whirling blades of his planes pro-
peller.
Motorcycle police charged the
crowd with screaming sirens and spe-
cial guards attempted TO ring off a
clear space for him TO land but their
efforts were not enough 70 stop the
rush. Two women were knocked
down, receiving cuts and bruises
which required medical attention.
Lindbergh saw the human ava
lanehe coming toward him and swerv-
ed his ship after a run Of only a
few feet, almost causing il to tip
over. Using his wheelbrakes as much
as he dared be turned his plane
completely around and shut off the
motor without the customary idling
while il cooled off.
He and his passengers were i'm
prisoned in the planes cabin as the
mob milled around. Finally an auto
mobile was forced through, and
ducking the hands Of those who
sought to touch him he jumped into
the car. Policemen stood on the
running board pushing away per
sons who sought to climb N, as

Winds INJURE
FLORIDA CROP
Tomato Production on
West Coast Will Be
Below Normal

The Lower Rio Grandc Valley to-
mato crop will not meet such compe-
tition as was experienced last year,
according to reports from other early
tomato growing sections. The Mex
lean tomato deal will be nearly COM
pleted by the time Valley tomatoes
reach the peak, and The Florida crop
will be reduced 50 per rent by the
recent ~unfavorabIe weather condi-
tions. The California crop is also
reported below normal.
Reports from the principal tomato
sections Of Florida state that a very
decided change has taken place in
the condition Of the tomato crop as
a result of the continued high winds
the latter part Of April. The plants
were young when the u~nfavorable
weather started. and were not able
to recuperate after the severe gales.
which succeeded each other with al
most daily regularity. Much Of the
fruit has been shed, and while the
plants may put on later. the crop
for the early movement will be con-
Siderably under normal.
Valley tomato growers report the
crop about normal, several reporting
the best crop on record. The move
ment BY carloads got under way last
week. and the peak will be reached
between May % and June !. The
acreage Is larger than last year. and
approximately 1000 cars will be
moved. Over 900 straight cars were
shipped last season.
Market reports the past week have
not beer optimistic. but improved
weather conditions IN the North are
expected to create a heavier de-
mand for tomatoes a. well az All 9TH
er varieties Of fresh vegetables.

When buying an automobile
storage battery, the car owner
should make sure that he selects
che with capacity great enough to
properly furnish his car and its

pendab,e electrical energy, advises
W.. M. Smith, local manager of

pany.
"a storage battery should have
sufficient capacity to furnish pow
er to all of the electrical units
of the carr, says Mr.. Smith.
"When it becomes necessary 70
buy new battery, it is advisable
to replace the old one with one
of r. the same size and capacity
that is recommended by the car
manufa turer, rather than buy one
that does not have sufficient
capacity to supply all of the de-
mands of the car and its equip
ment. Under-capacity batteries
soon lose their usefulness and
break down under heavy loads.
"Al batteries look alik ell

That 1t will be necessary to utilize

At the present time $50 pupils are
enrolled at the hign school. This
represents an increase of 81 over
the enrolment of 1927 and in the
event there Is a similar or larger in
crease next year, it will be necessary
to use the old school building. Al
