SHIPMENTS Of CAUll- FLOWER AND BROCCOLI MADE FROM CALIFORNIA While California cauliflower and broccoli do not compete with the I'mptina Valley product, coming as ( it generally does earlier than the niiMcoli grown in this section, the follow ing report of ctm 'I it ions a tut ! mark ting prospects will he interest' ing to the broccoli growers of Uoug- ; las County : i "Shipments to date have been 'light ami the bulk of the crop i still growing in the fields. The i unit emetit in the Colma district will j increase as l,os Angeles County de- lines and black broccoli should be nuivini: f n ely the last week in Feb ruary. The iintspects ale bright for L'ood vbdds and finality, and a s; t i rW1 ! tu-'tory Reason. In the southern sec- j lion the cauliflower crop has been i maturing so rapidly during the past two weeks that it is impossible to . 'handle it all and material waste has resulted. The heads are growiiiL fuy h. tore attaining good .-ize. and considerable over half the product is culls. Pickle factories are run- , ning full capacity without being able to lake .!' fit" til" laix" supplies. The shippers an obi iged to accept ( only the hest stock. Huh the inter- j mediate ami, the late varieties are disappointing. Pries to growers are. down to the low h-l ot lat year. Tin- ieb for the j-eason will again j , be small. Shipments w ill do line 'following the rush, and they will be .light the remainder or the season.' Most, ot the crop has moved out. but a few remaining cars will be shipped , , as snon as stock makes fair sizes. !Much of the product is going in mied car trade. In spite of small j d'-s. niedioer.- finality and short iehls, grow rs have had a highly satisfaetory season, due to cfnitiuuetl ; high prices.

The men, who gave tho names of Fd Smith and Tom Burns, arrived ul Drain recently and solicited the aid of u Drain resident for tho purpose of transporting the illicit cargo, which had been deposited near there tor safe keeping, to Mnrshficld by leant. It is understood that the Drain citizen whom the profiteers took into their confidence furnished Deputy Sterling with the exact locu tion of tho cache, with the rosult that the boo.o together with the owners was taken by tho officers. Sheriff Quino is or the belief that the two men have given tho Drain officers aliases, and further that they have been operating through hort for stiiuo time and the local off led feels certain that much contraband I ii nor has reached .Marsh field and other Coos County points via Drain.
