here Friday night in the main

him TO earn an even break in COM

and a chance to salvage part own
ership to the indoor distance run

last year.
And for Venzke. holder of the
world s indoor record of 4:l0,
triumph will mean throw back to
the days of 1882 when he mopped
up all the competition in sight.
Outstanding in field events is the
high jump. 1t will bring together

HASTAIN SEES
ADVANTAGE IN
COOPERATION

Agricultural conditions may be
improved in California by closer
contact with the department of
agriculture said II. A. Hastain,
president and manager of the In
perial Hay Growers association,
who has just returned from a con-
ference in Los Angeles. Hastain
states that an office is TO be opened
up in Berkeley. with a repreSen-
tatiVC of the secretary Of agricul-
tllrc in charge to whom agricul
tural problems may be submitted.
It is reported that Walter Pack
ard formerly in charge of the
Meloland Experiment Station will
be in charge. Packard is well and
favorably known to the agriculture
al interests of Imperial Valley. In
addition to Packard, A. M. Mallory
an attorney from the department
Of agriculture will be a member of
the staff to consider code problems.
Hastain stated.
Hastain attended a meeting of
the hay code committee while in
Los Angeles This meeting was at
tended by w A. Wheeler in charge
of the federal hay and grain SER
vice of the United States who ex-
pressed a willingness to recommend
the agreement for hay growers
and give it his support before the
department of agriculture.
In reviewing the feed situation
on the coast Hastain stated that
light showers and damp weather
have improved the growing con-
ditions on the coast somewhat but
that the improvement would not
be an important factor in the hay
industry.
In the matter Of the dairy sit
uation, Hastain states that there
is an inclination on the part of
some of the dairymen to con-
slider taking the COWS to the feed
instead of taking the feed to the
cows as is now the practice He
feels that such a movement would
be highly advantageous to Imper-
ial Valley. This would be the logical
community to which TO move, on
the other hand there will be
other communities farther north
making bids for the industry.
Hastain stated that r. w. Black
burn, president of the State Farm
Bureau attended the Los Angeles
meeting. Blackburn has been active
in obtaining a representative of
the department of agriculture in
California where the numerous
troubles and varied problems may
be considered without the necessity
Tor going to Washington. Black
burn stated that it was his belief
that many codes affecting agri-
culture would be put into opera
ton to the advantage of the west
ern farmers.
