'DAIRYMEN SHOW
EXCELLENT NET
\ ON INVESTMENT

Some interesting figures regarding
the dairy industry in Imperial Vai-

by Is well known dairymen. Thes"
lnen have kept records for the pas
year on blanks furnished them bv
the extension service and the latter
agency has done the required statis-
tical work to tabulate the results.
Among the surprising things
learned through study Of these re-
bcrts is the fact that these Is men
;.fe earning an average of 90 per
cent on their investment.
There were 4Sl cows in the dairy
herds studied and each COW required
an average expenditure of 80 hours
of labor per year. The owner receiv-
ca an average of 80 cents per hour
for this labor.
The total investment per COW in
these Is herds is $187.63 while the
average income was found to be
$173.40 per COW. Average expense
for each cow during the year was
estimated at $l41.73.
The farmer thus received as his
income, that is payment for his
own labor and that of his family
and as net profit plus six per cent
interest on his investment, the sum
of $71.03 per year per COW.

herds is slightly above the COW test.

Urges Biologists
Be Consulted In
Picking Dam Sites
by United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, March ga
proposal that a board of geological
experts aid in picking sites for
dams was made here yesterday by
Harry r. johnson of Los Angeles.
Johnson, consulting geologist,
discussed the st. Francis dam dis
as;er in an address before the con-
vention of the American Associa-
tion of Petroleum Biologists.
The st. Francis dam, he said, was
built on the well known San Fran
sisquito fault, which is classified
by goologists as "dead fault. -
The plans of fault in rock
structure, he pointed out, constitute
line of weakness and furnish an
easy avenue for the seepage of
water. 1A,
Directly beneath the dam, ac.
corling to Johnson, lay mass Of
comparatively new conglomerate or
soft rock which had covered the
Imperial Valley press., 1928-03-23
underlying rocs of more anclen,

underlying rocS of more ancient
origin.
johnson said that upon visiting
the scene after the dam collapsed
he found no evidence of a major
earth movement.
There was, he continued, several
slides which may have occurred
during the rush of water that flow
ed from the broken dam.
The dam itself, in the belief of
johnson, was structurally sound.
He refrained from direct state
ment that the dam should not have
been built where it was, but re-
commended consultation with geo.
iogists in picking damsites in the
future

fact is that two hundred members,
who attended the union meeting at
220 E. 14th St, are witness that
the three were active in conducting
the meeting from about 7:30 to the
time the attack was made.
Fifty-four others of the 80 ar
rested were discharged outright.
Six are being held on a nominal
charge of disorderlS conduct in or

excuse for the attack made by them

drawn guns and blackjacks. The
six, it is expected, will be released.
Heller and number of right wing
eangsters entered the meeting,
which was called to celebrate the
victory by the union of its general
strike, for the purpose of breaking
it up. According to some reports
two detectives had already secreted
themselves in the hall. When Heller
and the thugs entered on their mis-
sion of housekeeping they forgot
only one thing--the grocery clerks.
Militancy Pays.
It is reported-and there is no
reason to doubt the report-that the
clerks gave a good account Of them
selves. They have become respected
as a first-class militant union,
worthy of the left wing tradition.
Did the detectives make the mis-
take of forming the core of the
discussion No one seemed to
know. They themselves insisted on
this version of the affair when they
complained in court.
Members of the clerks union ex-
pressed the opinion yesterday that
the right wing will stay at home
