RANCHER SAYS PROSPECTS IN
/. VALLEY BRIGHT
DECLARES COTTON CROP is EX-
CEEDlNGLY GOOD
Hogs and Other Live Stock Are In

Products High

Major ]. n. Patton, U. S. A., retired
a resident of Holtville, Imperial valley
is a guest at the Westminster hotel, in
attendance on the trial of the land
cases in the federal court. Major Pat
ton owns, with his son, Jeff D., large
ranch near Holtville, and he is also
the secretary of the No. Mutual Wa
ter company there.
According to the ranchers statement,
prospects in the Imperial valley are
brighter today than ever before. Cot
ton, he says, has exceeded all the e%-
pectations of the most rabid enthusi-
astS, and bids fair to become, within a
few years, the principal industry of the
country. He says that larger and bet
ter quality of cotton, with more
pounds to the acre and a finer staple
to the bolL can be raised in Imperial
valley, with its irrigation system, than
anywhere else in the world.
Hogs are going up. Where last spring
they were 324 and cents a pound they
are now cents. Major Patton says 1t
Is not at all improbable the price VIII
increase to cents this winter.
great many breeders were forced to
sell last spring and summer toA meet
payments on land or to handle their ran
crops, and this will tend to make prices
even better for those who were lucky
enough to be able to hold their stock.
The dairy business is in excellent
condition, and there is room, Major
Patton SAYS for more dairy COWS OF
good quality He adds it is worse than
folly to take poor stock, as it is a dead
loss, Blooded cows pay on the invest
ment, while poor stock cannot even be
turned into beef. Cream Is now 80 l-S
cents pound, and will go to 40 cents
this fall in all probability. Eggs are
high, and turkeys and chickens are
bringing excellent prices.
Major Patton who is well known IN
army circles. will remain in the city
until the conclusion of the federal court
trials.

SWEET TOOTH

paragraph from Current Literature:
Sweetness is to the taste what
beauty is to the eye, affirms DIR. Woods
Hutchinson-nature's stamp of ap-
proval. and Yindication of wholesome
ness. Sugar, says this authority, is one
of the most universal flavors of food
stuffs known. over one-hah of our real
foods taste sweet or sweetish-that is,
they contain sugar in some form.
About one-thlrd taste salty; not moro
than one-tenth taste either bitter or
sour. The experience Of millions OF
years, reaching far beyond even our
arboreal ancestors, has taught us
beyond possibility of forgetting that
while there are hundreds of things that
taste salty which have no food value
and scores of things that taste bitter
that not only have no food value but
are even poisonous; and thousands of
things, like leaves and sawdust and
cocoanut mating, which have no food
value at all until advertised as break
fast foods, there are comparatively few
things that taste sweet which are not
real foods. A very few of these sweet
tasting things while real foods, are also
poisonous, but these we soon learn to
detect and beware Of"

NT OF so very long ago three young
men were walking home from a
Az banquet. One of the number was
a great talker. He made jokes about
everything they passed, while the 9TH
ers only threw in a remark now and
then to keep the ball a-rolling. The
name of the lively one was Peter Por-
tico, and his companions were Hans
Schlutzel and Albert Conway.
The state house clock struck mid
night as the three turned the corner
of Lime street. 1t was very dark
and lonely thoroughfare. For some rea-
son no lights shone on the lamp posts,
and the only illumination came from
moon half obscured by clouds. On one
side of the street stood the blank wall
of a Warehouse on the other chemi-
cal factory, whose every window was
tightly closed with iron shutters.
But our three banqueters were not
disturbed by the gloomy street. Peter s
witticisms showed no sign of a let-up,
and Hans and Albert laughed at them
vigorously. Suddenly they heard foot
steps on the other side of the street,
Notwithstanding the fact that there
was no one visible but themselves.
They all had queer feeling, but in an
instant Peter declared it to have been
an echo. Albert thought it an illusion.
due to the banquet, but Hans, who was
German, as you may have supposed, de-
clared the noise came from some super
natural source. II am from Eberfeld,
said he, land there they say that after
midnight the streets are haunted by
Widwomen."
Nonsense" exclaimed Peter; who
believes such trash in these days of
science?
Lots of people do persisted Hans.

own food. How would you like
all that, please?'
One day, while playing near
some trees, she heard some one
saying: Il can't, | can't, | can't, +"
and looking around, how was she
astonished to find a steel-colored
bird, drawling out the words
with as perfect nonchalance as
she had ever done it herself.
She told her mother she had
found a bird that could talk and
what it said.
"All the more shame to him
since he can sing so beautifully"
said her mother. Gust like a
little girl | know who always
says: 4 can't when she is
wanted to sing or play. If you
ever do become a bird, it will
have to be a cat-bird, as none of
the others would own you."
But then Vexie thought she
wouldn't mind being a cat-bird,
even, if she could only be bird.
So, one day, when Vexie said
II can't" for about fifty times, her
mother sent her out of the house
in disgrace.
Vexie lay lown under a tree
and cried herself to sleep. Then
a most wonderful thing hap
pened. She was surrounded by
birds all twittering and talking a.
once.
"She wants to be a bird" said
the robin, pausing for moment
to pull up worm out of the
ground, then adding: "But she

widwoman. She wore a long cloak and
you couldn't see her face"
"If they are women" cried Peter,
with a laugh, they must be very ugly
or they wouldn't be ashamed to show
their faces. l bet they are as ugly as
blue mud, and they make that noise
because they have wooden legs"
He said this with a loud voice, as IL
he were making a challenge. All the
same he was much taken back when he
heard a musical laugh and beheld three
ladies on the opposite pavement.
Continue this story, relating the ex-
periences of the three young men and
the mysterious cloaked ladies.
You may make the story a ghost
story, a fairy tale or just merely the
tale of some practical joke played by
friends of the young men.
In any case describe the costumes
and appearace of the ladies, the Incl
cidents which followed the strange
of the affair. and how all the parties
comported themselves.
There is opportunity for plenty of
humor, and make the story a funny
one. or the suggestion of the mystical
which is involved will allow one easily
to make either a story of fairies and
charmed beings or one of ghostly visit
ors doomed for some crime to haund
the gloomy street.
One prize, a handsome book, will be
given for the best story, or the win
ner may choose the alternate prize
instead.
