IN OUR
VALLEY
LarP— ... ------— -
UNITED STATES standard cer-
tification on citrus fruit soon is to
be available to Valley shippers.
W. E. Leigh representative of
the United States bureau of agri-
cultural economics who worked out
the grades is in the Valley at pres-
ent making displays of the various ]
grades at Valley packing plants and
instructing inspectors in the work i
Certification means simply that
tippers will be able to ship a car i
_U. 3. fancy grapefruit to any i
irket in the United States with (
assurance it will be bought at
prices being paid for that grade. .
Grapefruit will be given several j
grades including fancy U. S. No.
1 U. S. No. 1 and U. S. No. 2. <
The service will b. optional—that {
is a shipper can use it or not as
he pleases. If he uses the service ^
he will be taxed $4 per car for in-
spection and certification.
The practical working of this plan
is important to the Valley. 1
It will provide a means whereby .
friends of Valley grapefruit in the 1
markets of the United States can
buy fancy fruit and be sure they *
are getting what they are paying! c
for. ' v
It will mean that culls cannot c
be sold longer as first class fruit. 8
These things are important and 8
should prove of value in stabilizing
the market on high grade stock.
Classification will not remove
culls from the market and will not it
prevent them coming into compe- •
tition with first class fruit in cities _
within trucking distance of the J
Valley. I
But the city buyer of Valley
grapefruit soon should learn to de-
termine when he is buying fancy
fruit and when he is buying culls
and thereby expect value for the
money he pays. i

HARLINGEN reports plans for a
meeting which will discuss the
farm labor problem and seek a so-
lution.
The visit of F. Stuart Fitzpat-
rick chairman of the immigration t
committee United States Chamber ^
of Commerce was of importance *
and may prove a power in helping *
to solve the question in the Valley (
and all along the border. r
But that will take time. In the t
meantime residents of the Valley g
are doing right in attempting to v
find a solution for the puzzling q
question of bean pickers potato
diggers etc. e
Farmers report there is an ac- (
tual shortage of labor at present g
and that it will become acute as ^
soon as bean picking becomes gen-
eral. „
A NUMBER of new passenger de- J
pots soon are to grace towns in the £
upper Valley along the Missouri j
Pacific Lines.
Donna reports work to be started j
on a new station there within two
weeks Pharr is expecting to see v
-construction started there and Wes- 3
laco announces a nev station has c
been promised that town. 3
Passenger stations erected in the
Valley always are among the most \
distinctive buildings in the town r
and add considerably to the at- t
tractiveness of the section.
Both the Missouri Pacific and \
the Southern Pacific have adopted t
Spanish type architecture and have C
erected some beautiful structures.

Fruit Price Folly
'■ «M ... 1 "■ .*.... ... -
Growers Accepting Low Price and Can
Easily Get More.
(AN EDITORIAL)
Valley grapefruit—Marsh seedless—is worth two and a half to three
cents per pound in the orchard and any grower who accepts less is
robbing himself.
This is the opinion of men who are in the business of shipping fruit
tnd vegetables—men who are competent to analyze the situation.
All that is necessary these men agree is for the grower to demand
;he higher price and refuse to sell for less. The man who accepts the
iresent price they say is the loser—the man who demands what his fruit
s worth will get it and will add hundreds if not thousands of dollars
o his profits.
N. F. Donelson manager of the McAllen Citrus Association advanced
his theory in a letter to bankers and newspapers and asked bankers
0 call a meeting that would put a stop to cash sales at from one to
>ne and a half cents per pound for seedless fruit.
T. M. Melden manager of the Texas Citrus Fruit Growers Exchange
igrees it is only necessary for the grower to demand a fair price to
eceive it.
W. E. McDavitt pioneer buyer of Valley produce is convinced the price
an be raised immediately the growers refuse to sell at the present
ffering.
Mr. McDavitt points out that 18 southern states closed to Florida by
ederal quarantine because of the Mediterranean fruit fly infestation
.lone will consume more grapefruit than will be produced in the Lower
tio Grande Valley this year. These 18 states must receive almost 100
ier cent of their supply of fruit from the Valley.
The situation in the fruit market at present is somewhat like it was
1 the potato market last year—except more so.
Potatoes were scarce throughout the United States but the price in
he Valley was ridiculously low. An appeal was broadcast by the Rio
rrande Potato Growers Association that the low price be refused. There
ras immediate improvement and by the close of the season the price
f potatoes had gone up to almost double the low figure reached. If
ction had not been taken the entire crop would have gone on the market
t the low figure and it is likely prices would have declined.
It was done with potatoes—it can be done with grapefruit.
Demand your price and you will get it.
Men who have had many years of experience in the industry declare
can be done.

U. S. Grades Set
For Valley Fruit
CERTIFICATES
TO GUARANTEE
OUR PRODUCT
Agricultural Depart-
ment Representative
Here to Study Citrus
For Classing.
^Special to The Herald)
HARLINGEN Oct. 31.—Establish-
ment of United States grades for
Valley citrus fruit is announced
here and the first Valley fruit
;o be shipped under federal certifi-
cation is expected to move out In
ihe near future according to W. E.
Leigh of the United States Bureau
>f Agricultural economics.
Leigh was in the Valley during
;he past shipping season and stud-
ed the fruit in this section for sev-
eral weeks in order to prepare the
specifications for the different
grades. He recently announced the
L929 grades for both California and
Florida in which states he also has
charge of the establishment of
grades.
Guarantee to Shipper
Shipping of citrus fruit under
United States certification will re-
sult in a guarantee to the shipper
and to the purchaser according to
Mr. Leigh. If the fruit is graded
here and shipped as U. S. No. 1 it
must be accepted at the receiving
end as such If the receiver refuses
the fruit another inspection is made
there and if the fruit is found to
be as represented by the Valley
shipper it must be accepted. It is
only in rare instances that a car of
produce is found to be other than
represented.
It protects the purchaser because
he is assured of getting what he
orders and has recourse to the fed-
eral inspection service in case the
fruit does not appear to be what
it is represented and can demand
another inspection at the receiving
point to verify the first inspection.
The service is not mandatory but
it is thought that a large number
of shippers will use it. A charge of
$4 a car is made to finance the in-
spection work in the Valley which
is maintained by both the federal
and state departments of agricul-
ture.
Different Grades
Grades under which citrus fruit
will be shipped under U. S. certifi-
cation are U. S. Fancy which is
the highest citrus grade' U. S. No.
1. and U. S. No. 2 ■with some dif-
ferent classifications under the var-
ious grades.
The specifications which were
worked out by Mr. Leigh state that
U. S. Fancy shall consist of citrus
fruit of similar varietal character-
istics. which are mature well col-
ored firm well formed of smooth
texture for the variety fairly thin
skinned free from decay bruises
split navels buckskin creasing or
any other defect.
In this grade not more than 20
per cent of the surface of the fruit
may show light discoloration.
U. S. No. 1 shall consist of citrus
of similar varietal characteristics
which are mature and other char-
acteristics almost similar to Fancy
except that as much as 75 per cent
of the surface of each fruit may
show light discoloration.
Standard Pack
U. S. No. 2 shall consist of citrus
fruits which are slightly colored
fairly firm slightly misshapen and
slightly rough but which are free
from decay bruises black or un-
sighty discoloration.
Unclassified fruit shall consist of
citrus fruits which are not graded
in conformity with the first three
grades.
In addition to the statement of
grade any lot may be further clas-
sified as bright or russet provided
any lot of fruit classified as russet
must not have less than 40 per cent
by count of fruit showing more than
75 per cent of light discoloration.

nearby.
The girl and the boy fell to the
ground and died in an ambulance
summoned by persons who heard
the shots. The killer sped away.
Two men were arrested by offi-
cers but one was released shortly.
The other was held for investiga-
tion.
Jealousy Motive
Officers mentioned jealousy as a
motive for the shooting.
Miss Crow was employed by a
confectionery on the outskirts of
the city. Bird wTas an employe of
an oil refinery. They had been
sweethearts for a considerable time.
When the girl was off duty at
11 p. m. she and Bird entered Bird's
automobile and drove to the girl’s
home followed police believed by
the killer in his automobile.
Both were shot from behind Bird
three times once through the heart
once through the right shoulder and
once through the left hand Miss
Crow twice once in the neck and
once in the breast.
Another theory was that the kill-
er lay in wait near the girl’s home
until he saw' the automobile of the
couple approach and stop w'hen he
started his motor and drove slowly
by the other car shooting as he
passed.
Lights On
The lights of the slain couple’s
automobile were still burning when
I police and ambulances arrived in-
! dicating police said that they had
alighted from their automobile and
were brightly outlined in the circle
of light when shot down.
The two bodies wrere found hud-
dled together their hands clasped
in front of the youth’s car.
Bird had lived with a sister. Mrs.
Vessie Gardemal since the death of
his mother and father several years
ago. He is survived by two other
sisters Mrs. Clara Scear of Con-
cord and Miss Ida Bird of Port Ar-
thur.
Boy Weeps
Miss Crow came to Port Arthur
from St. Martinsville La. several
years ago. Surviving her are her
father J. S. Crow four brothers
Frank Lawrence Clarence and
Francis two sisters Mrs. May Gau-
dolfo and Miss Lillie Crow all of
Port Arthur.
