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.

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

Louis XVI for Col Johann Rudolf

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.

and army post were located in the

1 NEW EHE
REDLANDS, Cal.-(AP)-A new
type of gasoline engine for com
mercial use, claimed by its invent
or to remain in perfect balance at
any speed, has been developed here
by H. A. Johnson.
The principle is the movement
In opposite directions of two pist
ons in the same cylinder. The gy
roscopic action of the pistons, and
opposite whirling flywheels, John
son sayS.' with the angularity of
the connecting rods keeps the en
gine in balance and eliminates the
vibration which is one of the prob
lems of installing commercial en
gines in farm machinery.
The experimental engine has de
veloped five and six horsepower
with 1.400 and 2.100 revolutions
a minute, respectively, under test.
It weighs 250 pounds. This weight
can be reduced 100 pounds in re-,
finement, the Inventor believes.
