 Fred Thompson and John Martin, who loft BrAwloy about two months ago. returned after visiting some oi the min ing towns in the Mojayc desert and go- ing as far as Goldhclds, New They are more convinced that BrAwley and this Valley are the proper places to stick by, and their absence has mAdo their hearts grow fonder for their former love They met Jack l.aiblin and report that hc is making money and will visit Brawley soon.
 Attorney Chandler is visiting in San Diego. Ills family have recently re- moved from Minnesota to that city.
 Clint Sawyer, Frank Abbott, and Phil Chandler made . rsid on tho rabbits last Sunday and brought back q buggy load. They say they know where the rsbbi,s are ss thick as ants.
 Frank Ups,ill left for . trip to Los Angeles Saturday, from where he will 70 to his home in the east, to spend the holidays. He promised the boys that he would take no bad money while he was gone.
 A movement is on foot to form . melon association in Brawley. on lines adopted by the Coschclls and the Rocky Ford ar.ociations. The matter arose at the Saturday night meeting oi the Chamber oi Commerce and much in- terert is manifested in the plan. 4 committee was appointed to report to the meeting, which ip to be . special meeting for Tuesday evening. the 77th ot this month. We believe the idea will be carried out and that a large number of acres will be planted this winter.
 The Brawley Improvement Associs- tion, formed for the purpose for which its name indicates. gave a sociable at the GGrdenA House, Thursday evening. the 18th inst, which WAS we'll attended and a great success. in an enjoyable way. Games were indulgrd in and talk on the benefits to be derived by such an organization was explained. The rafiie of sofa pillow followed, to be won by the party guessing the nearest to the number of beans in tumber and Ros- COG Abbott was the lucky man, with others closely following his guess. About tS was netted for the club.
 Business is improving in Brawley and the people feel that they only need SOW, in order 10 reap crop. When all have this idea instilled into their minds, and will wait for other things to take their course, they will have done much to inn prove conditions and their reward will come. We shall not always be at tho disadvantage which VIC have lately ex- perienced. and time will demonstrate that there are good things in store for tue people ot the Valley.

never been removed from the place
where they grew in the nursery
Among these we have apple, peach,
pear, cherry, prune, plum and nee
tarine trees. From a careful survey
of these trees | am convinced that the
trees that we're never moved are as
rule stronger and healthier than those
that were transplanted once. The diff
ference is not great, but is more no
ticeable in peaches and nectarines than
in the others l have no doubt but II
we were to plant the seed where we
want to grow the tree in the orchard
and then bud it there and never move
il even once we should gain something
in the vigor of our tree. But it would
be so inconvenient to do this that the
profit would not make up for the
trouble.
A man came to our place not long
since who wishes to introduce new
spraying outfit I was not at home
but in telling my sons of the good
points of his outfit he said that he
could run right along and keep up
a pressure of thirty to forty pounds.
The boys smiled and then told the
man that with our gasoline sprayer
we keep the pressure up to 12O
pounds. They then showed the man
how they could reach the highest part
of the largest trees in our orchard and
could drive the spray material through
the trees so as to reach all parts OF
it. A good pressure is very important
when spraying for the cooling moth.
The larvae, when it matches out, seeks
a hiding place and will crawl in at
the blossom end, sometimes at the
stem end or where two apples touch
or where a leaf lies close to the apple.
1t is important, therefore, to force the
LIQUID into these places and have 1t
ready for the young intruder. A light
pressure or misty spray that gently
falls over the trees will not accom-
plish this nearly so we'll as where the
material is driven with considerable
force In corresponding with j. ID. Ol-
we'll with reference to the pressure,
he said that they aim to spray at
pressure of 120 pounds. With a gaso-
line sprayer we can keep up the pres
sure more uniformly than with the
hand sprayer We have what is called
a pop valve in our engine set at 10.
Whenever the pressure goes slightly
above that figure this pop valve opens
and the material goes back into the
spray tank. So when we are turning
around at the end we do not stop the
engine but let it send the material
back into the tank
There are some insects that prey
upon the codling moth. 1t is claimed
by the Utah experiment station that
what is known as the digger wasps
are very destructive to the larvae OF
this insect. Some small orchards
where they abounded were kept free
from this destructive pest. Bats will
catch the moths as they fly by night.
1t might be very beneficial to con-

OUT TOO EARLY.
Hattling Of Garbage Wagons a Source
of Annoyance

The rafting of the garbage wagons over
the streets of the city at an early morning
hour Is the source of a complaint received
by the Commissioners today from Ed Pail
mer Boring, who lives at a hotel at the
corner of Sd street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. northwest. Mr.. Boring informs the
commissioners that he usually retires at
about 1870 each night and that about $50
o'clock every morning he is awakened by
the rafting of the lbs of the garbage wag-
ons as they are driven along Sd street coll
lecting the odoriferous refuse The lids on
the wagons, he declares. make a noise equal
to the rafting of a tenor drum only
more SO, and would awaken a sound sleeper
a block away.
The writer declares that the noise of the
large cars complained of on Connecticut
avenue some time ago is not a circum-
stance" as compared to the judge of the
garbage wagons
