FINE MELON
 OUTLOOK
Colorado Growers Coming to lm- perial Valley to Test COndi-
 tiOnS

Next seasons crop of canta- loupes in Imperial Valley is cer- tain to be a big one. Plans are already under way for the plant ing of a much larger acreage than last season and with ideal conditions of soil and climate the melon growers of the valley con- fdently expect as great a meas ure of success as the market conditions next summer will per init.
 H. B. Pearson, field manager for Crutchfeld and Woolfolk, was in Fl Centro this week, look ing over the field and planning his spring campaign. The Fl Centro Fancy Melon Growers as- sociation has signed it's acreage with Crutchfeld and WoolfoIk and in addition they will handle melons from considerable out side acreage in this vicinity. MT. Pearson says that the out look for a good melon year is ex- cellent and he believes that the men who handle their cantaloupe land as a gardening, rather than a farming proposition, will reap big rewards. The shipments will probably reach 100 to 1900 carloads, practically double that of last year and an effort will be made by many of the growers to beat last years record for get ting the melons to market early.
 MT. Pearson has been in Rocky Ford, Colorado, for several weeks and has interested several of the Cantaloupe men of that section in Imperial valley. Elmer E. Cadwallader of Rocky Ford will be in Fl Centro about Nov. 15 to act as MT. Pearson's field man. MT. Cadwallader is an expert cantaloupe man who has had many years of practical expert ence in Colorado. His services as ah instructor will be available to all growers who ship through Crutchfeld and Woolfolk and from time to time demonstra- tions of methods will be made by him for the benefit of the local growers. He will bring five sons all melon men, with him and

For sixty or more years this aged
grandfather was an earnest, yet

did not get rich in the things of

more valuable-the example of a life
spent in the cause of righteousness,
and in the building up of the king

has well been said of him: He left
his children no wealth of silver or
gold, but that which is far more val
liable, the example of a devout,
Christian life.
At the age of 81 years grandfather
Holt was converted and joined the
Methodist Episcopal church. He
served as class leader in church of
that denomination for over twenty
years. For reasons which he deemed
sufficient he afterwards united with
the Methodist Protestant church

After his long Christian experience
it is no wonder that at the end of the

TOXIC, Oct. 6.-The American

viewed today by representative of

English newspapers to the effect that
in the case of war between the United
States and Japan, victory would rest
with the former. The ambassador
said
"Of course, | never made such a

dition than that of peace.

PURCHASE RECALLS BIT
OF ANCIENT HISTORY
THOMAS ROCKHILL DISCOVERS
OLD WORKINGS, BUYS STOCK
AND MAKES SNUG PILE.

Behind the story that was pub
lished in The News a few days ago
concerning the purchase of $4,000
shares of mining stock in a local
company by Thomas Rockhill, who
is termed the pioneer of pioneers,
is another story which is now ancient
history in the district, and which has
been well nigh forgotten by every
one here.
Many years ago, when Rockhill
was a young man-and he is now
four score years of age-he delved
in the hills of this district for gold,
as did the hundreds of other early
corners.
Out in the mountains several miles
from the present location of Ely, he
discovered surface indications OF
lead, and developed the find in the
primitive methods that were then
used by the miners.
The lead find proved to be a good
one, and from the shallow mine he
shipped many tons of high grade lead
and silver ore which netted him from
$40 to $3.50 per ton. The silver
values were high, and in those days
the price of silver was high.
To appreciate how rich this ore
was, it must be stated that this work
was done when the nearest railroad
point was Eureka and the ore was
hauled by team to that point whence
it was sent to the smelters.
Rockhill, regardless of his ad
vanced age, stIn takes a keen interest
| in mining matters and is as shrewd
an investor as ever he was. He en-
| joys an occasional trip to the hills
and tramps over the ground that he
worked in the early days. and iT
which he laid the foundation of hi!
fortune.
While on one of these recent trip!
he stumbled accidentally upon the
old workings from which he hat
shipped the lead and silver ores il
years agone.
The ground had long since passed
from his hands and after severa
changes had been taken over by tn,
Richard Ely Mining company. Rock
hill learned who the present owners
of the ground were, and immediatel,
placed an order for $4,000 shares o
that company's stock
That his Judgment was good wa
shown by the advance which tina
stock took within a few days of it
purchase by him, making him man.
thousands of dollars better off thai
when he made the purchase.
After securing his stock he ad
vised the management of his find
and it is understood that develop
ment of the old gopher holes from
which the lead and silver were takel
will be instituted at once.
