COTTON PLANTATION
Exhibition Patch on Block Near Rail
 road Depot at Ell centro

At the last meeting of the Ten Thousand Clus before con- solidation with the Chamber of Commerce, the presidents proposal that cotton be planted on a vacant block between Fourth street and the railroad station was adopted and a committee was appointed to raise the necessary money and have the work done
 Contractors Hubbell and Pellet were employed to prepare the ground and plant the seed, and the Holton Power Company offered to put in water pipe and supply water for irrigation with out charge, The ground has been pre- pared for seeding, the water pipes have been placed, and the seed will be planted within a day or two,
 This cotton field will be later than the fields planted by ranchers, but the patch will make an interesting exhibit in the fall, when travellers and land seekers come into the val ley. It is the purpose of the commit tee to leave the bolls upon the plants and make the field an advertisement of the cotton industry in Imperial Valley.

LAST CANTALOUPES
 GOING ID MARKET
Crop Will Bring Nearly Half Million Dollars to Valley
 Melon Growers.

Cantaloupe shipments will continue for about ten days longer, and the growers are practically certain of re- ceiving good returns, as the market has been steadily improving this week. According to a statement given out by one of the associations, ponies and jumbos were netting $1.50 to $2.00 this week and standards were bring ing as high as $3.00.
 With forty more cars to go from all valley points, the total shipments for the season will be about 1900 to 1925 cars. During the entire season prices have kept up well and the end of the season shipments will proDably bring a higher price than even the very early ones. The melon patches have been holding up well, but will begin to drop down now. The crop appears to have been about the right size and the season has demonstrated that 1900 cars of melons properly dis tributed can be sold at profit. It is hardly likely that the market would have supported the quantity shipped out last season.
 Most of the early shipments were of melons grown at Brawley and in the north end of the valley. The late shipments have been made up chiefly of the El Centro, Heber and Meloland crops. It is probable that the average net returns to growers for the sea sons shipments will be dollar a crate or a little better which will mean the distribution of more than $4OO,O0O among the cantaloupe grow CTS of the valley.

 The Imperial Valley has suffered from yicissitudes. It is a question however whether the complications heretofore had there would equal in disaster the confusion into which titles would be thrown were this charge that reclamation was too well and too promptly done accepted as ground of cancellation. The catastrophe would be serious indeed. A course of in depreciation and practice once adopt ed by ministerial department shall not operate to the injury of innocent persons following such practice. This principal alone should be sufficient to protect entrymen in this case. As to plural assignments, Desert Land Cir cular Nov. 30, 1908, Section 15, pro- vides that the recognized practice shall not be disturbed as to past en- tries although not provided for by law.
