LUSCIOUS 1 S mm ROCKY FORD. Colo.-(-AP)-Farmers in the Arkansas valley know their onions. .They have discovered a "mira cle" crop in the Valencia onion. Which Is said to grow better in this region than anywhere in the United States. Within three years the Valen cia 'onion has become the big mon ey crop of the district, even sup planting sugar beets, which held the throne for years. Four thousand acres were planted to onions In the Arkansas valley this year. In Otero county 2,100 acres In onions produced 11.250.000 as compared with $1, 344,000 realized from 16,000 ac res of sugar beets. The Valencia Is a sweet Span ish onion which can be grown in only two or thre,e localities in the United States. Arkansas valley conditions are said to be exactly suited to the crop. By constructing well ventilated storage houses from the adobe soil found throughout the valley farm ers hare been able to hold the on ion crop until February, when It reaches high mark. Sold in the field, Valencias bring 75 cents to $1 a hundred pounds. By February the price or dinarily advances to $3 a hundred pounds. Two seasons ago Ae fanners of the valley got $5 a hundred. By WILLIAM R, KUHNS Financial Editor Associated Press Feature Service NEW YORK-(AP)-RoekefelIer. Morgan, Baker, Giannlnl and a growing list of powerful names hare become the fixed stars of a financial world where the order of the day is unceasing changes. - - Executives of the country's greatest banks-may change with each new merger. The big names In the background do not change. Certain family names, synony mous with , money but not neces sarily the nation's wealthiest, go on forever. Like coats of arms, they furnish convenient labels for various dominant groups. More than 100 bank mergers were reported in the United States during the first quarter of this year. Big industrial units require wide and adequate banking facili- tes. For that reason bankers are predicting that the consolidation of banks will continue as long as industries continue to grow in size and ramifications. The three largest banks in the country at this time are the Na tional City, the Guaranty Trust and the Chase National, all of New York. Each is the result of a merger this year. Their combin ed resources are approximately 5,500.000.000. a twelfth of all the banking resources in the United States. In Chic so the Continental-Illinois Bank and Trust company, a merger of the Continental Nation al and Illinois Merchants Trust is fourth in size with resources of approximately a billion. - Other super-banks included in the big 10 are the Equitable Trust. First National, Bankers Trust, Central Hanover, Irving Trust, Corn Exchange and Bank of Amer ica. Some of the executives of these banks, such as Charles E. Mitchell, Gordon S. Rentschler, James S. Alexander, William C. Potter, Charles S. McCain and Albert H. Wiggin wield enormous power separately and collectively. They are ercognized as the dom inant personalities In banking, yet for various reasons Wall street often finds It simpler to use the designation Morgan banks. Rocke feller banks, Giannini banks or independents. That means something. SWISS HE TO HOUSE YOUNG BANK BASLE. Switzerland-(AP) -A spacious old palace, built in 1782 and popularly known as "the House to the Cherry Garden," will in all likelihood become the first home of the Bank for Internation al Settlements, devised in accord ance with the Young Plan by bankers and experts from seven nationalists who met recently in Baden-Baden. The building takes its name from the fact that immediately be hind it there is a garden in which cherry trees are the most conspic uous feature. At present the building bouses a postal sub-station In its left wing, and a district eommandery of the Swiss Federal army in the right wing. The structure was built by TJ1 rich Buechelln In the style of Louis XVI for Col Johann Rudolf HOLDEN, Masa.-(AP)-Thoma H. Skinner, 78, believes he Is. en titled to some kind of record for long distance commuting. For seven -years he has traveled each spring from Yakima, Wash., to the 'forest fire observatory on ML Waehusett, Mass. There be remains until the annual danger of brush fires Is past, after which he returns home. Mr. Skinner was born at the base of the mountain and liTed most of his boyhood and young manhood there. He was organist In the Congregational church in Princeton for many years and has Been credited with several compo sitions. He conducted a farm within sight of the mountain for years and, when he tired of farming be came a patrolman on the Waehu sett reservation. In 1919 he resigned and went to Yakima to live with a son. Ia far-off Washington he read of the death of the observatory lookout and applied for the position which was promptly given him.

The Burckhardts are one of the oldest families in Swit zerland The cost was regarded as most extravagant in those days. The colonel's son, Johann Lud- wig, who was born in this palace. is known to historians as the fam ous oriental traveler Sheik Ibra him, who was the first European to visit Mecca and met an untime ly death at Cairo in 1817. When the fortunes of the Burck hardt family dwindled, the palace changed hands several times. Fin ally it. necame tne property oi tne state, which assigned it to the Swiss People's Bank. Then this in stitution took up more commodi ous quarters and the post office and army post were located in the building. Alphabet Books Are Prepared by Parrish.
