Tho aviators remained with the airplane until 4.30 that afternoon and then abandoned it. starting aoross the desert toward the moun tains and heading north. They drained a gallon oil can and filled lt with water from the radiator of their airplane. This they carried with thom. Lieut, Robertson gave his story in dota}] to-night, as follows: *We left San Diego at 8.30 a. m. January 10, intending to go across the mountains east to Calexico. In sufTtctent maps made it necessary to rely largely on compass loadings. For this reason to keep north of the Mexican border we sailed a course 25 degrees north of east. I coan ted on this course putting me Into the lu perlai Valley well north of the border and then having to sail south for about 50 miles. Flow Very High. "In order to cross the high moun tains it was necessary to travel high, averaging mote than 7,000 feet. From this altitude it was impossible to detect a very strong north wind which I encountered In the moun tains. "I thou turned southeast Aftor about minutes on th s c mrse I could soe distinctly throng;, H haze a largo body of water we thought to be tho Salton Sea. Tho only map of this section I had showed Salton Sea much too far south so this con firmed my belief that I was right. As my ga3 was running low my only course was to keep golug far ther south in order to strike Calex ico. Col. Bishop thought this body of water to bo the Salton Sea. so both of us wore satisfied we wove fol lowing tho correct course. Couldn't figure on Drift. "Neither Col. Bishop nor myself could possibly figure on the drift of the machine. As I! vrns baxy, 1* was Impossible t>. pick up objeeis cltarly. The strong north wind also made our rate of travel much faster than was flgUtt'd on. When about 30 minutes of search was made for the South ern Pacific Railway, which 1 knew tc be near Salton Sea, I decided to land and investigate. The landing was al most completed when tho aircraft struck soft ground and the plane tipped np, This was at 12.30 p. m., and : p?Ul thought we were at Salton Sea, and we were only convinced of our error after close examination of the surrounding country. We then decided on walking back to the Im perial Valley. "We put one gallon of water from the radiator in an extra oil can and, with a light lunch, started north west. That was at 4.30 p. m. jf a Hil ary 10th. i Night and Day. "We kept a northward course, traveling night and day. Our water 'gave out Sunday, January 14. By that time Col. Bishop was so weak our progress was slow. We agreed lt would be wise to separate when we could travel no farther and take the only available course-I to con tinue on and send back help If possi ble. "This J did at daybreak Wednes day, the 17th. 1 kept to the north west, and at daybreak on the 18th found a trail of one of the rescuing parties. Following this trail.

You can, therefore, count absolutely on an an alysis of: Phosphoric Acid ------- 2.00 per ct. Ammonia -.7.00 Potash.----- J,50 And any mixed goods of this anaylsis, purchased from any reliable dealer, will cost you to-day at least $44,75 per ton at interior points, fall payment. Now, after adding interests on cash price of Cotton Seed Meal, and cost of delivery, it is still the cheapest by about $2.00 per ton. It doesn't leach easily, feeds plant evenly throughout the growing season and is a home proouct. All fertilizer materials advancing. Better contract now for your requirements. You took the Potash out of the ground with your crop. It is nov/ up to you to return it to the soil if you expect results. Feeds are valuable in an almost exact proportion to their Fat and Protein"contents. Every boy in the cattle and dairy section knows this, and the feeder's first question is, "Whatjdoes it carry?" Compare the following with Cotton Seed Meal : WHEAT BRAN Combined Fat and Protein .... 19.4 per ct. Selling to-day, wholesale, at $38.00 per ton.

M?XED FEED Combined Fat and Protein - - - - 23.0 per ct. Selling to-day, wholesale, at $40.00 per ton. COTTON SEED MEAL Based on above averages now being paid for Protein and Fat, Cotton Seed Meal should bring $95.34 per ton. Get prices on Cotton Seed Meal, and remember that it is Protein and Fat that counts in a feed. Why let the Northern feeder have your valuable Cotton Seed Meal in exchange for his products of much lower value? It's an unfair 'change. Don't you think so? The Oil Mill is the Farmer's Friend.
