 Upon recommendation of the execu- tive committee The Ten Thousand Club of El Centro was admitted to membership in the county organiza- ton.
 The matter of the directory was up for discussion and the directory com mittee reported favorable progress. Preliminary steps were taken toward consolidating the Chamber of Con- merce directory and a directory to be issued by the Imperial Valley Direc- tory Go. so that one large, comprehen- sive directory can be issued.
 A favorable, although not definite re. port was made on the matter of re- duced freight rates on lumber into the valley, which was taken up by the Chamber several months ago. The Southern Pacific Go. has assured the Chamber that reduction will be made, to go into effect August 1, but the exact amount has not been deter mined.
 It was reported that a contract for a page advertisement for one year in

GOOD BROOM CORN.

c. T. Armstrong has raised small crop of broom corn on his residence lots on Fifth street, in Fl Centro, that demonstrates the suitability of this crop for Imperial Valley lands. The straw is of fine quality and especially good for outside dressing on brooms and whisps on account of it's fine tex ture MT. Armstrong believes that seed planted during July would ma ture a heavier crop than that planted
 in the spring, and that two grades of broom-corn straw could be thus se- cured to the advantage of the growers.

EIectric Heat for PLANTS.

The growth OF plants is known to
be stimulated by weak electric cur
rents applied to the soil, but 1t has
not been supposed to be economical
to use electricity for conversion into
heat for warming hotbeds, as has been
done by G. Hartman in his expert
ments at Turbine, Ont. His heater
consists of about 2G0 feet OF one
twelfth-inch iron wire wound in seven
two-inch coils on one and one-half-
inch iron pipe, the coils, connected in
series, being mounted on porcelain
knobs on a piece of abestos board A
frame about 6 by s feet in size has
n floor. on which is about five inches
of soil, and the top Of the frame is
covered with two sashes. The heater
is placed under the floor. Current is
taken from 110-volt circuit, but the
energy actually received last year was
fifteen amperes at eighty volts. This
gave sufficient heat. The hotbed was
Kept quite warm, and tender flowers
and vegetables developed rapidly in
the early spring weather.

A Low POULTRY RUN.

A safe and secure poultry run that
requires less material than high
pen can be made from laths sawed In
two, which would make the sides two
feet high, making the frame of scant-
lings and the top of sawed laths, box
boards or similar material. The top
of the run should consist almost en-
tirely of trap doors, using bits of old
harness for hinges, which will look
well II cut neatly The illustration
shows one Of the doors propped up to
show the construction more plainly
The doors are four feet long, the
length of lath, and may be eight or
ten feet the other way and still not
be clumsy, being constructed of such
light material.
This trap door is an important fea-
ture, as II permits the tender to enter
easily for removing top soil and re-
placing with fresh earth or other car
ing for the birds. The frame material
is of 2x2-inch scantling at the corners,

A Vegetable Lizard.

An attache of the Smithsonian In
stituti' n tells of curious inhabitant
OF tropical forests called the lizard
tree, but which, as he remarks, might
we'll be termed the centipede plant.
This singular growth consists of a
stem jointed like bamboo, with
green leaves growing directly from
the bark, and slender white roots
sprinsing from the joints, with which
it maintains it's hold upon the bark
of the tree whereon it grows. When
1t has attained length of three or
four feet the lower sections of the
lizard plant drop off, and, fastening
uTon ally convenient object, begin
tt cir Independent growth.
When thus growing upon the
