Harvesting Alfalfa

On the ranch of Jacob Stoner, south from Imperial, ten acres of alfalfa is being harvested. This alfalfa was planted the 9th day of April last, and attained height of about two feet, being in the stack within sixty days from seeding.
 A. w. Patton is harvesting 100 acres of alfalfa near Paringa that was sown the latter part of March, which he de- clares is splendid evidence that Impe- rial valley will eventually be the all falfa field of Southern California.

Late Barley

Until recently it has been the al- most unanimous opinion that late bar ley would scarcely yield returns suf- ticient to pay for the seed and la Dor of planting. Fortunately for number of people who Could not get their crops in early, this will not be altogether the case, as is being demonstrated by the surprisingly heavy yield of num- Der of late barley fields.
 It is said by those who are now har- vesting late barley that while it has not grown to as great height as the early sowing, still it is turning off an abundance of hay with a very heavy yield of grain.
 Wilbur Clark, l.. F. Farnsworth, and several others, who sowed barley from the 1st to tl:e 10th of March are now harvesting on all average of two tons of excellent grain hay to the acre, which should be encouraging to the large number of people who were forced to take their chances on late crops.

Mr. Banta's Residence

On the northeast corner of the first ten acre tract west of town on the south side of eighth street is where T. P. Banta's $25OO residence will stand "a credit to the community. Mater ial is now being placed on the ground for this building and work will he be- gun at the earliest practicable date. Here we expect to see the picture of comfort when Mir. Banta has com- pleted his home, and doubtless a large number of others will follow his ex- ample this fall.

For Public BuiIdino

Thursday evening of last week about twenty-five business men and citiz- ems of Imperial met at the hotel in the order of "town improvement meet ing," to discuss various questions of interest to the general public. J. A. Hammers presided as chairman and H. c. Oakley as secretary. The ques- tion discussed most was that of build ing public remada on the corner of Ninth and H streets, to be replaced later by city hall and fire depart ment. A committee of three com posed of L. E.. Cooley, l.. c. Vickery and Leroy Holt, was appointed to take the matter in hand and report to a second meeting week later. At the second meeting others were added to the committee with instructions to at once set to work to get the remada built and supplied with seats before the Fourth of July, and it will proba- bly be used as a place of assemblage on that day. The Land Company do- mated two town lots for the site which were selected by the above named committee.
