RARE GOLD COINS
BRING A BIG PRICE

There has been a great advance ~
The premiums paid by collectors for
United States coins Of certain mlntage
says the New York Sun. This is due
to the increasing number Of collectors
Tor only a rev years ago only a few
collectors nj the country made a spe-
cialty of gold coins and now there are
many.
No series Of gold coins fetches a
higher price than the So pieces. An
illustration of this is obtained by
comparing the prices at the sale OF the
collection of Colonel Cohen Of Balti-
more in 1875, Of the collection Of Par
zlalee of Boston in 1890, of the vii
son and Smith collection in Philadel-
Dbia last year, aud this year and Of
the Stamln collection in this city in
lay of this year.
lme specimen of the 1915 -
gold piece of which in 1872 only five
were known to exist brought 80 in
1875. In 1895 a piece in just as good
condition brought 1926 at the Parma
.ce sale. while last year an equally
inc specimen brought $l050 at the
smith sale.
An 1919 half eagle OF which bnt
nine are known, in circulating eondi-
ion brought 80 in 1915. At the Par
alalee sale $72 was paid for such a
specimen, while at the Smith sale last
year the premium was advanced to
$3.50. This year an uneirculated
specimen sold for $3.50 at the Wilson
sale, an Increase of 800 in twelve
months
Cohen s 1927 half eagle brought S2i
armalee's sold for $40; while at tbs
smith sale the price jumped to $500
The highest priced Of ali the goi'
coins, the 1922 half eagle sold foi
80 at the Parmalee sale. while 1921
was paid for a specimen last year a
the Chicago numismathist sale. Their
re only three known specimens o
this variety.

Imperial Valley press., 1908-12-19

men of Imperial are the hrst to testi- fy to the courage and devotion and bravery shown by the women of the Valley, who have the hardest end of the life there, as in all frontier coun- ties. But near the towns, when one sees the big touring cars, the well filled stores, the prettily dressed wo- men, it is hard to realize that five wears ago it was absolutely and liter. ally sandy desert, inhabited by coy otes and jack rabbits.
 The people are the salt of the earth. Beside the practical farmer and the young man eager to get a start whom you find in all new countries, you find many University graduates, many bus mess men who have come back to the soil for pleasure or health, men of note in the big cities of the East; you even find that every little vii. lage has some champion league base ball players on its team
 The Grand Canyon of the Colorado is one of the famous places ci the world, and no one fails to be i'm pressed by this stupendous chasm, slashed and gouged from the earth. Here in the Imperial Valley, below sea level, under the burning sun. is all that immense alluvial drift car. ried down through the ages by the Colorado river as it slowly carved the magnificent canyon where the world goes to realize God
 This immense land here, once a desert and now through the foresight and labors of the pioneers the store house for the starving millions of the world, to the eye that can see and the mind that can think is as won derful and overlapping as the won der place from whence it had it's first being.

AN EDITOR IN WONDERLAND
What An Agricultural Writer Saw When He Revisited Imperial.
 Valley.
(California Cultivator)

Imperial Valley is a wonder land. Five years ago the Cultivator repre- sentative visited Imperial Valley and headed his write up "A Trip to h. visible Cities" Then there was noth- ing to vouch for most of the cities but the fertile soil, the water and the faith of the people. Now the worst of the pioneering is over. The towns visited, Calexico, Brawley. Fl Centro Heber and Holtville offer the com forts of life in cities, and many of the luxuries. And there one gets what is often lost in larger, older communities, the warm-hearted neigh borliness that in new places makes up for much of the luxury one has left behind. There is not a winner in the valley, or if there is, the edi- tors did not see him. The people of the valley admit it is sometimes very hot there, admit that some crops failed to bring satisfactory returns admit that some mistakes have been made. Difficulty in getting their early fruits and vegetables to market is one of their greatest problems, but with additional railroad facilities and better organization among themselves they think they will soon solve that problem. Meanwhile, alfalfa and stock are safe and sure.
 We talked to one woman who had livd in the valley five years, with only two weeks away in all that time, and she was we'll and contented A man who recently moved his wife and three babies onto his new ranch thinks it is the best move he has ever made. 4 workingman who has been there three years says the great trouble so far is that men take up too much land, more than they can care for themselves or hire care for: that 20 acres well farmed will support a mans family in comfort.
 A real estate man says you can still buy land only four miles or so from town for $50 an acre. and proves to you that on basis of crop returns the land is easily worth $500 an acre. They show you borings that prove that for 300 to 600 feet the soil for nation is unchanged. They tell you for years the soil need only be scratch ed. They show you the analysis of the irrigating water to prove that it replaces soil fertility faster than crops remove it. They are planting shade trees and flowers and building com fortable and pretty homes to live in A year ago the only High School in the valley was at Imperial. Now every town has one, and yet in spite of this division of forces the Imperial High School has ten more students than last year At Heber they have established a practical collegiate school. There is not saloon in the county.
 Pioneering days are not all over yet, out in the country, and the
