THINGS?

spring as I had no desire to even
try to displace Mr.. w. G. Weldon

his death until Mrs. w. G. Weldon
definitely assured me that she did
not wish to be candidate for the
office.

possible to have my name printed on

PAYROLLS FOR
AGRICULTURE IN
VALLEY GROWING

I'm reaalng statistics Of Imperial
county for 1881, as prepared by the
Imperial county board of trade I
am particularly impressed by the
increase in payrolls in several agri-
cultural lines of this county," stated
w A. Tondro, president of the Ell
Centro Chamber of Commerce to-
day. AT a time when there are
hundreds of thousands of men out
of work all over the country and
when wages have been cut in all
lines of production, it speaks we'll
for the prosperity of the commun-
ity when one notes that the annual
payroll for 1881 in the lettuce in
dustry was $4,211, ,760 as compared
to $3,500,000 in 1890, a gain of $780,
900. The melon industry shows "a
payroll of S6,073, ,285 for 1881 as
compared with $4,500,000 for 1880. a
gain of over $1,5000OO and the
mixed vegetable payroll jumped
from $1,528,000 to S2,300,000 gain
of $772,000.
"Payrolls in Imperial county in
these three agricultural activities
showed an increase of about $4,000
000," continued Tondro. "The gen.
eral tendency seems to have been
an increase in the value of total al
falfa shipped, in alfalfa meal,
mixed vegetables, wheat, milo maize,
barley, cantaloupes, casabas, grape
fruit, Strawberries, olives and pc
cans. Lettuce, peas, asparagus,
watermelons, grapes and dairy pro-
duets showed a decided decrease in
total value. The total decrease in
value of all products shipped was
about eight and one-half per cent,
which is a very good showing as
Imperial Valley press., 1932-06-16

compared to most agricultural COM
munities where the values of the
products shipped are from 80 to so
per cent below normal.
"A general decrease in prices on
agricultural products is indicated
by the fact that Imperial county
shipped 58.916 carloads in 1881 as
compared with 53,480 carloads in
1890, gain of $500 carloads, and
yet the total value of these products
was much lower.
