NEW COUNTY DIRECTORY
Thurston & Co.,, of Pasadena, to Issue Complete Roster of Imperial
 Valley Residents.

The publishers of the Imperial County Directory will soon have in formation takers in the field gathering information for the 1910-11 directory. This publication should have the hearty support of the business inter ests of our city. This directory, we are told, costs over $1000 to produce. We bespeak for it your patronage.
