with experts from away the first steps will be taken toward the formation of an Imperial Valley Agricultural association. The scope of this new association will be wide and it's influence on the development of the valley will be tremendous. It will be the pur- pose of the association to hold meetings and institutes from time to time and to be of materi- al assistance to the farmers and stock raisers of the valley in ev- cry way possible.
 It will also arrange for the holding of an agricultural fair and cattle show to last two or three days. Plans will probably be made for the exhibition of horses, colts, dairy animals, hogs, poultry, etc., and cash awards will be made to the winners. All the other incidentals to the hold ing of a big county fair will be arranged for after the project has taken definite form. No doubt the ladies will participate to the extent of having an exhi- bition hall for fancy work, etc. There will also be exhibits of all the wonderful garden and farm products of the valley. These exhibits would of course be of wonderful interest and even at it's beginning the Imperial Valley fair would eclipse all others in the state in the value and inn portance of it's garden and farm products, for where else can these things be produced so we'll as in Imperial Valley. And, further, arrangements will very likely be made for a race course for horse trotting and athletic sports.
 So, let everybody cooperate as best he may with the commit tee of arrangements and make the coming farmers institutes and colt show a big success in order that the entire plan for the aggrandizement and development of the agricultural interests of Imperial county may be carried through with full and complete success.

The colt show and the farmers

BUILDINGS
 UNDER WAY Fl Centro Continues Its Very Remarkable
 Growth NEW BUSINESS FIRMS
Work of Development all Over the Valley. Train Loads of Set
 tiers Coming Daily

The tide of visitors and set< tiers still sets strongly toward Imperial Valley. Even though the colonist rates from the East are not now in force the influx into California's garden country is greater than at any previous time. This week has set new mark for the number of visitors. Every night there have been so many people at Imperial Junction that an eXtra'car was necessary. The fame of the valley, it's per feet climate, it's rich soil, snd it's enterprising people is spreading farther and wider every day. Men of all states are coming to see for themselves the wonders of which they have been told; and coming they marvel because the half has not been told. Those who can, buy land and be- come residents. All are favora- bly, impressed and many who are now making only temporary stops in the valley will return later prepared to stay.
 These things mean growth, and the valley is growing. It is leaping ahead so rapidly that it is almost impossible for the busi- ness men to keep pace with it.
 The hotel accommodations, liberal as they seemed few months ago, are now entirely in- adequate and provisions are being made for additional hostelries.
 Every town in the valley is increasing so fast that a doub- ling of population is only a mat ter of a very few months. The evidences of material prosperity and growth in El Centro are nu- merous. The plan of upbuilding as outlined in the Press two weeks ago is now well under way and every day makes it more and more certain that the county seat of the new county will soon become a big thrifty metropolis, an industrial and ag- rigural center whose influence will extend and be felt far be- yond the confines of the state.
 Of the ten brick business buildings which have been con- tracted for three are already be- gun on Main street. All will be fifty by a hundred feet and of attractive design. It is intended to complete these buildings by the middle of January. Other buildings which will be begun soon will be ready for occupancy a month or two later. One of the buildings will be occupied by the w. H. Goodrich Go. of Red lands with a big and up-to-date stock of house furnishings. An other will be occupied by the El

essary to so arrange the show that the people of that town as well as of the other towns in the valley can participate. The time which seems to be of greatest convenience to all Is Friday fore noon. That will not interfere with the Brawley Institute and will take no more time from the Fl Centro institutes than Satur- day afternoon, as the judging could be done and the awards made before noon.
 Colts of all ages up to four years, both draft and driving colts, will be provided for, the classes to be arranged later. Blue, red and white ribbons will be awarded and the judging will be done by experts from away. The show will be open to all far mers and breeders in the valley. Members of the Imperial Breed CTS association have consented to cooperate with the Valley asso- citation and will enter colts.
 It is confidently expected that very large number of colts will be entered and it is even more certain that the animals will show style and breeding that will be a credit to the valley. A few years ago some of the farmers purchased blooded stallions at high prices and it will be the get of the stallions largely that will be shown at the coming show.
 It has already been remarked by strangers coming into the valley that there are a surpris- ing number of exceedingly large, finely formed, we'll bred colts here many of them being of the Norman and Percheron and Clyde strains. The driving colts will make a splendid showing but the magnificent specimens of young draft horses will surely attract equal attention. The members of the executive com mittee desire the earnest coop eration of every farmer and stock raiser in the valley to make the show a success. Letters of inquiry or suggestions relating to the show should be sent to w. E. Wilsie, chairman at Ell Gen. tro.
Imperial Valley press., 1907-11-02

The colt show to be held dur ing the first week of December under the auspices of the Imper- ial Valley Stock Breeders Asso- citation will be an event of great importance to the stock raisers of Imperial Valley and an excep- tional interest to the people of Southern Califordia at large. Ac- ,cording to plans already perfect ed the show will be of consider able magnitude and it's results will be far-reaching. There will be classes for both draft and driv- ing colts and the casual visitor to the valley will certainly be amaz- ed at the number and quality of the colts shown. At this time the farmers of Imperial Valley will have an opportunity to show just how much has been accom- plished in stock raising. What have been the effects of the pur- chase three years ago of many thousands of dollars worth of pedigreed stallions as we'll as the benefcient effects of a perfect climate, excellent grazing condi- tions and as good feed and pas turage as can be found anywhere Ain the world.
 | A general committee of ar &angements was appointed this week as follows: w. E. Wilsie, chairman; R. H. Clark, w. A. VanHorn. This committee will make all the general arrange ments, provide a place of exhibi- ton, appoint sub committees and in general work toward the suc- cess of the enterprise. All who are interested in having the colt show as largely successful as it deserves will be gratified to learn that so able and enterprising gen. tlemen have consented to assume the onerous duties of an eXecu- tive committee. Their knoWl- edge of the conditions in the valley, their experience as stock raisers and their business ability assures the complete success of the enterprise from the start. The committee will meet within few days and appoint sub com mittees and otherwise complete the arrangements. It had been suggested thnt the show be held on Saturday afternoon, Dec. z, that being the last day of the Farmers Institute which will be held in El Centro Dec. 6 and 7, but there are a few objections to that time and the exact date will be determined after all the con- ditions governing the situation have been gone over. An insti- ute will be held in Brawley on Thursday, Dec. 5, and it is nee

FRANCE WILL
FINANCE JAPAN

PARIS, June 17.-while political
considerations of a high order con-
tributed to the negotiation Of the new
Franco-Japanese entente. there is no
longer any doubt that the substantial
quid pro quo given by France was the
promise Of access to the French mar
ket for future Japanese loans. Japan
did not need French guarantee for
Korea and Formosa, but a japanese
guarantee for Tndo- China was worth
a great deal to France and she was
willing to pay the price demanded.
Japan, according to the confidential
statements made by some Of her high
est Representatives in Europe. will need
something like fve billion francs
Q,O0O. OO0,OOO) within the next few
years to convert her present high rate
loans and to furnish the capital neces-
sary for Industrial and commercial de-
velopment in Manchuria and Korea.
