THE IMPERIAL RE-SURVEY

Elsewhere we present the first authoritative statement In re- gard to the plan that will be pursued in making the re-survey of the lands in this Valley that has ever been given out by the United States officials. This re- survey is made in accordance with the Act of Congress passeo July 1, 1902, and the plans adopted carry into effect the pro- visions of this act fully and fairly. Each claimant to lands within these boundaries will have his land surveyed out to him as a private land claim. This will apply to the claimants of school sections the same as to the occupants of desert claims and homesteads. The school section owner therefore must prove where his land is located.
 We hope that where conflict arises it will be found possible to compromise, otherwise suits to quiet title will have to be gone through with, and these suits are quite expensive andin the end one of the claimants must lose.
 This statement from the Sur veyor General establishes the method that will be adopted in re-surveying and re-describing the lands in this Valley, and settles every question that the government can settle. All that it leaves unsettled is as to the priority of claimants to the land. This question is one of fact and will have to be determined by judicial proceeding, unless com promised.

Destroy Your Wild Mustard

When tract of land is put into culti- vation in Imperial Valley, the farmer can SOW his seed with the full assurance that what he sows, that will he also reap. In other words, there will be no injurious or noxious weeds or vegetation come from the ground, for there are no seeds of anything of the kind in the land previous to it's being put into cult vation. From this fact it will be very easy matter tor the farmers to keep their fields clean, for the only thing necessary is to SOW clean seed. and to pull up and destroy any un- desirable weeds or vegetation that may creep in. We are reminded of the necessity of this being done and done promptly and carefully in the case of the wild mustard. This is a plant that will thrive in this climate to most wonderful degree. Let our farmers be warned by the experience of other parts Ot California. There are thousands of acres of the very best lands in the middle part of this state, that a score or more years ago were the best and most productive farms, and now all the income the owners can get from them is from harvesting the wild mustard seed and threshing it. The wild mustard has taken the farms and rothing else can be produced. Let our farmers carefully root out every un- desirable weed, wild mustard, cockle burrs, wild sunAowers, and all such pests. It can be quickly and easily done now, but if neglected and allowed to run, it will be impossible in few years.

rolling or grinding grain or for other purposes; to buy, hold, hypothecate and sell such real estate or other property as may be necessary or useful for con- ducting the business of the cor porati0n, to borrow money and give snch securities for the pay ment of the same as may be necessary and to do any and all other acts that may be necessary in connection with the successful management of the principal objects for which the corporation is formed."
 From this it will be seen that the company was organized simply for the purpose of buying water from the Mexican com- pany and distributing it at cost among it's stockholders. All the other items mentioned are sec ondary to and dependant upon this, the principal object for which the corpor ation was form ed. This being the case, Inn perial Water Company No 1 can- not issue bonds for the purposes proposed by MT. Heber at the meeting of May 16.
 In this connection the PRESS suggests that the purposes for which the Imperial water com- panies are formed have proved to be too narrow and we believe the matter should be taken up and remedied. Our water com panies will have to play the lead ing part in the further develop
 nent of this Valley and they should not be hampered at any critical moment by d lack of cor porate powers. At the first meetings should be held in all the companies, and all neces sary steps taken to pre- pare them for any emergency. Under present conditions if the California Development Con- pany would sell out cheap the water companies could not be purchasers. Amend the articles of incorporation.
