Hartzell, Drake Estate rack- Steer, would never go to jail, have either been paid off or called off. For Oscar is hi jail, his number is 46.137. He is under sentence of 10 years Cn the charge of having used the tlnited States mails with intention to tiefraud.

Sentenced on November 15, 1933, fce entered Leavenworth on January 16. 1835 from Sioux City, Iowa, the etate in which he formerly served as a deputy sheriff before tasting of the joys of London high life.

NO BILL MORE IMPORTANT to the Valley has come before the Congress of the United States in recent years tlun this now being by Congressman West which appropriate $75,000,000 for Hood control and storage on the Rio Crande.

Important section of the bill is that which directs the negotiation of a treaty with Mexico on the matter. For years both the United States and Mexico have been hampered in WQrk and plans on the Rio Grande due to the inadequacy of the old treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in covering present clay developments. Mexican members of the International Boundary commission have given assurance of the desire of their government to work in harmony with Valley interests. All that has been lacking is the treaty. Under the bill introduced by West the treaty will be forthcoming, then actual work may begin.

WE HOLD IN OUR HAND AS vVE write a copy of the "Consumers Guide," issued by the Consumers' Counsel of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration-In cooperation with the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, Bureau of Home Economics, Bureau of Labor Statistics. Those two paragraphs are quite a mouthful, are they not? But they are taken verbatim from the pamhlet itself. Point that came to us as we read about Florida oranges and California oranges-And Florida grapefruit and all that of thing, was-Does the Consumers' Counsel, a branch of the fejj-al government-Know that oranges and grapefruit produced in Texas? That our grapefruit shipments are quite a sizable drop in the market bucket of today? And this "counsel" does know about them, why do they keep this knowledge such a deep secret from the consumers of the country? Somebody ought to write a letter! WORD COMES THAT VISITORS to Mexico, especially those desiring to go to Washington Beach, have had their way made easier under the administrations of the new Matamoros customs chief. Where formerly one had to pay duty on everything carried across, and to go through a lot of red tape at that, the procedure has been markedly changed. Just send over a list of things you are going to take over the day before yen go, and that's all.

Of course, if you are going to do a fishing, you have to pay the fiEhing license fee of 4 pesos, license bring: good lor 10 days. Believe this action will help out a lot. LOW READING OF 32 TO 36 IS PREDICTED Growers Are Warned To Take Steps To Protect All Tender Vegetables Frost warnings were broadcast over the Lower Rio Grande Valley for Tuesday night, and farmers from Brownsville to Mission were at work Tuesday protecting tender winter vegetables. The forcesat of the U. S.

Weather Bureau stations at Brownsville and Harlingen was for temperatures Tuesday night ranging from 32 to 36 degrees with frost. A clear sky is forecast, with slowly rising temperatures Wednesday. Wind Does Little Damage The Valley came through the cold Monday night with little loss to its produce. The strong north wind did) some damage to tender produce, but not enough to kill the plants, according to reports received here. Young corn and beans were hurt most by the wind.

A frost Wednesday morning as forecast would do extensive damage unless vegetables are protected. Farmers were aided in their work to cover vegetables by dry earth, which can be thrown over the plants unless they are too large to cover. Crops which would suffer most from a' frost are potatoes, which are now fairly well developed, tomatoes.

This is a story about a lost and found fish. And about Si Jackson of Port Isabel. Si was trying out a brand new fishing- outfit--new rod, new reel, new line. "I was fishing from the jetty," Si said, "and wasn't catching any fish, so I just kept casting to see how far I could cast when suddenly I had a strike." Then Si told about the battle to bring in the lisii, which was an eight-pound red. "When I got him in close to the jetty I noticed the fish was ten feet away from my hook and sinker." Si then discovered he had hooked a broken line with a red-fish on it, and brought the fish and line in.

"Did anybody else on the jetty try to claim the fish?" Si was asked. "Sure," he replied, "everybody on the jetty- did, but I brought him home just the same."

"It shot fire about 50 or 75 feet straight up and then died out when the dirigible sank. There were a lot of men floating around on rubber life boats."

E. Anderson, consulting engineer ol; San Benito and call for 68,000 feet of eight-inch pipe and a number of pumps. The city will purchase its water from Cameron County Water Improvement District No. 6 (Los Fresnos) delivered through resacas and canals through which water is delivered to districts numbers ten and eleven. The water will be delivered at a paint in Bayview in what is known as the Reparo resaca.

It will be pumped from there to Port Isabel in pipes. An existing reservoir at Port Isabel will be utilized for storing the water. The new system will replace the one by means of which water is taken out of the Rio Grande only a few miles from its mouth. The change is being made partly, because salt gulf waters sometimes reach as far as the present pump plant. Both a leirger and fresher supply will be available for the port and city.

Construction of a siphon under the Brownsville ship channel also would have become ne-; cessary if the old system had been retained. Sixty Families Flee School Building Fire DETROIT, Feb. 26. (IP) Sixty families fled to safety Friday when fire destroyed Western High school. H.
