(UP) A bil lion dollar pocketboolct ' That la what farmers of alx drouth states of the Midwest are carrying around thla fall. It U a bigger role than they had last year ana many times bigger than the one they had In 1932. And It Is sur prising to the farmers and the mer chants.

Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Expert Figures Figures compiled by experts place the combined Income of the six state for 1934 at approximately 1.356.422.000. The farm Income for the same states In 1933 was $1,290. 311.000. Thus the "burned out" farmers will have approximately $, 000.000 more to spend than they had In 1933. The reasons are higher prices now commanded by farm products and the federal benefits from the AAA for crop reduction and the corn-hog program. Between the two many farmers will break ahead of last year, and because of the AAA bene fits virtually all will have some cash. Of the states listed. Texas Is the exception to the rule of greater In come. While figures are Incomplete and estimates subject to revision, state and private estimates Indicate a 1934 Income of about $396,000. 000.

(Associated Press Photo) TIGERS DRILL HARD ON SATURDAY NIGHT (By Harold Grove) Practice, and plenty of it, has been the order of the day for the Medford high school Tigers for the past week In preparation for the battle with the Eureka high whool next Satur day night before the flood lights on the turf field of the Loggers city. Coach D. K. Burgher opened up Tuesday night and gave his charges one of the stlffest workouts this sea son, which was followed by another stiff workout Wednesday night. Burgher says that In order to sur vive a tough ball game a team must survive tough practices to prove that they are capable of "taking It." New faces have been popping into the first string Unenp. John Dlck erson, sturdy guard, has been lining the shoes of Keith Estes, who has not been out for practice for the last couple of days. Bob Smith, who showed up so well In the Roseburg and SON3 frosh games, has been changing off with Blondle Lewis Both boys are making a good show ing. Ole Sleverson. the Jumping Swede, has also been showing up well as understudy for Ghelardt. The only worry left .for Burgher Is In finding a center able to take Steuart's place should he be Injured. A big. long, lean boy by the name of Ray Ettenger has been slaving the position with the hope that he will make good. Another man Bur-' gher will have to fall back on if Et tenger Is unable to make the grade la Earl Harrison, who has been play ing guard. Playing on deep grounded sawdust all season and then shifting to a turf field may not be so easy on the an kles for the Tigers, and substitutes will be needed before the game Is finished. Burgher has not completed the list of players that will make the tr!p but said there would possibly be 22 or 24 players make the trip along with one manager. Considering the distance to Eureka, quite a few local fans are planning to go to the game. As many tans as possible are urged to be there for the more support the Tigers have from their own locality the better football they are likely to display. 4 E By Arthur W. Warnocle. EARL SNELL HERE ATROCITY ELEVEN Today ta the eleventh anniversary of the Siskiyou Tunnel attempted train robbery and quadruple murders, for which the DeAutremont Brothers Ray, Roy and Hugh are now serv ing life terms in state prison, where they have been since June, 1927. The crime, one of the most atrocious in Pacific coast history, occurred at 13:10 noon, and threw southern Oegon into fever of excitement. The DeAutre- monts were arrested, tried, and made signed confessions four years later, after a world wide hunt. Recent reports from the state prison say that Imprisonment is be ginning to take toll of Ray De Autre mont, "brains" of the attempted rob bery, and that at night, when he hears the whistle or bell of a distant loco motive, he Is thrown into severe men. tal agitation and racRs the cell block with loud screams. It waa In the en gine cab and alongside It, that the Uvea of four men were ruthlessly snuffed out, and the scenes come back to him. The DeAutremont have been model prisoners, save for Hugh, who was linked two years ago with an at tempted escape that was thwarted Hugh and the other plotters were cast into the "bullpen." Chance of any of the trio ever re ceiving a parole Is said to be slim. Federal Indictments charging murder rest against them. Recommendations filed by Jackson county officials, in cluding Former Sheriff Ralph Jen nings, oppose granting of paroles under any conditions, or for any rea son. 4 Cocktail Shaker Didn't Help BUFFALO, N.
