The Christmas Dinner.

In spite of the fact that the word dys-
pepsia means literally bad cook, it will
not be fair for many to lay the blame on
the cook if they begin the Christmas
dinner with little appetite and end it
with distress and nausea. 1t may not
be fair for any to do that-let us hope
so for the sake of the cook. L disease
dyspepsia indicates a bad stomach, that
is weak stomach, rather than bad
cook, and for weak stomach there Is
nothing else equal to Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. 1t gives the stomach vigor and
tone, cures dyspepsia, creates appetite,
and makes eating the pleasure it should

money at his command. The town of Brawley is extremely well situated, and it is predicted by those who ought to be in position to know that it will develop into one of the best towns in the valley, and it behooves the Imperial ite to keep an eye open and watch it grow.
 This is advice which is fully as time ly when reversed, for Imperial is now growing faster than ever before in it's history PRESS.
 The Southern Pacific management is arranging to put schedule trains on the line from Old Beach to Imperial during the week, when the old method of travel by stage will be entirely dispensed with between those two points, and which will be gladsome day for all who are interested in the settlements.
 There are now about a thousand head of fat cattle in the valley ready for ship ment, and as soon as the stock yards which have been ordered installed at Imperial are completed shipments will begin to the Los Angeles and other mar kets.
 Settlers are coming into the valley daily, with their stock, implements and household effects, preparatory to mak- ing permanent residents, and it is con fdently predicted that within the next twelve months the population in the valley, which is now about 4000, will be trebled.
 The Southern Pacific Company sur veyors have run line from Imperial south into Mexico, and are now some

Imperial Water Company No. 8, cover ing a territory comprising about 3O,0OO acres of some of the best lands in the valley. The system will be completed by October 1. A portion of it will be ready to be utilized for planting sum mer crops.
 The California Development Company has corps of engineers exploring the territory immediately west and north of the last-named system, with a view of extending one of it's main branch canals to the territory, in order to sup ply the increasing demand for land. The engineers report the discovery of an eX cellent body of land in that locality. Heretofore it has not been explored.
 Frank $. Miller, the new proprietor of the thriving and bustling town of Brawley, situate on the line of the I'm. perial and Gulf Railway, branch of the Southern Pacific, about ten miles north of Imperial, is planning exten- sive improvements for his town. He will immediately establish a bank, a hotel and two stores, for all of which he will erect suitable and substantial build ings He will also erect number of dwellings to supply the wants of the town. It will require about $2O,O0O to carry out the work which has been planned. Mir. Miller is recently from Pittsburgh, and is backed by influential and' wealthy customers, with plenty of

thirty miles or more east of CalexicO, running the line through the republic of Mexico to Pilot Knob, to connect with the main line of the Southern Pa cifc, and it IS believed that through services by way of Imperial over the Southern Pacitc is only matter of a short time in the future.
 The Cameron Lake Cattle Company have, on their Keystone ranch and near Imperial, about 1900 acres in grain, all doing excellently. Some of the wheat is headed out, and is as tall as a good sized man, with heads from six to eight inches long, Surely the harvest will be immense ill this valley, and it will be well for the Los Angeles merchant to look to the valley for increased trade. New structures Ill the way of ranch houses are going up on every hand in the various sections of the valley.
 The California Mexico Land and Cat tie Company are planting and preparing to plant about 1000 acres to crops i'll the immediate vicinity of Calexico, and it is reliably reported that the company IS preparing to begin operations upon ad- joining land in Mexico, comprising about 10000 acres, for the purpose of seeding in the carly fall. he company is a valuable acquisition to the valley.
 The Blue Lake section, where the town of Silsbee is located on the Blue Lake, is making substantial progress, and some day will surprise the unbeliever, if there be such. The town is beauti- fully located, and it is believed it will make a permanent health resort.

IMPERIAL TO THE FORE
Careful Observer Tells of Progress
 Being Made

the Los Angeles Times is fair sample:
 The Imperial Valley is day by day ad- ding to it's population, new improve ments and industries.
 Banker w. F. Holt has perpetually leased what is known as the Eastside waste gate drop from the California De- velopment Company for the purpose of developing electrical energy, to be util- ized in the establishment of creameries and for milling purposes. The drop is situated immediately adjoining the Eastside big dam, in Imperial Water Company, No. 5, and has a fall of seven teen feet. A large volume of water passes over this drop, and it is capable of developing about one thousand horse power. Mir. Holt will immediately in- stall plant sufficient in capacity to op- crate two or three creameries, and mill for Touring and grinding purposes.
 In this connection it will not be amiss to state that Banker Holt has been of infinite benefit to the Imperial settle ments. It was he who installed the first telephone system and erected the first church edifice It was he whO in connection with the president of the California Development Company, A. H. Heber, organized the Imperial and Gulf railway, and subscribed and paid in cash its capital stock S7200, and be- gan its construction. It was he who bought out the controlling interest in the First National Bank of Imperial and opened it up for business, which has been great stimulus to the develop ment of the valley, and an accommoda- tion to the settler. It was he who or ganized Imperial Water Company No. z, covering an area situate immediately south of the Eastside dam, and extend inc to the Mexican border. He bought and paid for majority of it's capital stock, and obligated himself to construct and complete it's irrigation distributing system, which has practically been completed and accomplished. But in the mean time, while he has been in a manner philanthropist, he has at the same time benefited himself finan- cially to the extent of about a hundred thousand dollars. Too much praise can not be accorded to him for his energetic acts and influence. He has been in- strumental in interesting some of the best and most substantial citizens of Redlands and other localities in the State, as we'll as Arizona. A few such men as Mr. Holt would soon build up an empire out of the material furnished in the Imperial Valley. What is com monly known as the Eastsider or Mum Der Flyer (meaning the settler in that section of the valley) can congratulate himself in having Mir. Holt as an imme- diate neighbor.
 The California Development Company has issued instructions for the cOnstruc- tiOn, as fast as men and money can do the work, of the Eastside main forty foot canal north to a point touching the township line, distance of about four teen miles from the intake. Said canal will furnish water for about 40 0O0 acres, 15 ,000 acres of which has been sold, and the distributing system completed, and the owners of the land are now taking possession, improving the property and planting the same to crops of various
