If reports of the struggles and dis
muters who fought in vain during the
rush hour at the new Pennsylvania ter
minal to get seats in the tunnel trains
for Long Island may be credited, the
service would seem to have been opened
p~rematurely. Such facilities for han
ding the home-going crowds as we're at
the disposal of employees of the road
are said to have been pitifully in
adequate. A familiar note, so far as
Pennsylvania Communication service is
concerned, was struck by residents OF
Far Rockaway. 1t is said that they
will hold a meeting in the near future
and engage counsel to compel the rail-
road to live up TO the contract entered
into at the time the Communication
tickets were sold. Two trains, as against
the twenty-five in The timetable, are
said to be running between Far Rock
away and Long Island City.
President Taft watched the
vers of the aviators at the Harvest meet
yesterday with delight, but refused
positively to accept the invitation of
any Of them to go aloft. Aside from
his official position, which would make
such an experiment out of the question
for a man of judgment and good taste,
the President isn't exactly cut out for
a bird-man. The aeroplane and the
monoplane are frail crafts at best, and
while they are accustomed to respond
nobly to the demands of expert opera
tors, the strongest OF them might be
forgiven for bucking or buckling if
called upon to lift a mar of Mr.. Taft's
girth. An air vessel of the Wellman or
Zeppelin type is more suited to that
purpose.

NOT AS VOLUNTEERS.
You needn't be surprised, you know,
If after all this strife
Some very able statesmen go
Right back to private life.

He would not think of b~anqueting
With men known to be naughty.

MAY GIVE A CIRCUS
Central High School Student Body Plans for Raising Funds to Help
 Sustain Athletic Events.

The first meeting of the executive committee of Genital Union High School student body was held Thurs day afternoon, and the matter of rais- ing funds for sustaining the student body activities during the school year was discussed. The open air circus. which made such a decided hit last year. was proposed and taken under advisement. It is certain that some sort of open air entertainment will be given, and probably the high school circus will again shine forth in all it's glory.
 Delegates representing the Anna teur Athletic Association of Imperial Valley will convene in Fl Centro on October 1, and the student body made plans for the entertainment of these delegates. They consist of represen- tatives of all the high schools of Inn perial Valley and Yuma High Sshool and Heber Collegiate Institute.
 This year the number of athletic single events will be reduced, and plans will be made to hold all-day meets in which various events will be scheduled.
 Central High School has had busy week, organizing for the years work Forty nine students were enrolled the first week.

Two Bales to Be Tested in Amazon Knitting Mill at
 MuSkegon
Company Contemplates Installation of Cotton Mills Near Los Angeles Growers Advised How to Select the Best Seed For Their Next Years Planting.

Two bales of Imperial Valley cotton were shipped this week by the J. R. Loftus Co., to the Amazon Knitting Mills Co. at Muskegon, Mich, on an order transmitted through the Press office from the president of the con- pany, who is visiting Southern Cal ifornia and is considering the advisa- bility of establishing a mill near Los Angeles. The cotton was ordered shipped regardless of price and freight rates It is the purpose of the pur- chaser to work the cotton into knitted fabric with the machines in use at Muskegon to test it's suitability for the class of goods that the company manufactures.
 The establishment of cotton mills at Los Angeles and San Diego will be beneficial to the valley growers, as it will make a competitive market on the coast and fix price for cotton. At present the only coast buyer is the Oakland mill, and the price is the lowest figure that the grower can be induced to accept. As the Oakland mill does not require much highgrade cotton, its offered price is determined largely by the price of the lower grades of Texas cotton
 The Loftus Co.'S cotton bulletin for Sept 20 urges upon growers the inn portance of carefully selected seed for next years planting, and says:
 "A good plan is to go over your fields from time to time and pick the largest five-lock bolls from the best developed stalks; save them until you have bale when it can be ginned, sacked and stored for next years planting. Carefully selected seed will give you larger yield per acre and higher grade cotton"
 Concerning market conditions the bulletin says:
 "The general conditions of the mar ket have remained practically un- changed. Futures have declined somewhat but the gambling end rep resents in no way the actual market price of cotton for any length of time. Today's New Orleans spot quotations for middling cotton are as follows:

WILL ISSUE BOOKLET
Chamber of Commerce to Cooperate With M. & M. Association in Pub
 Ication of Descriptive Matter.

A well attended meeting of the Fl Centro Chamber of Commerce was held at the City Hall on Wednesday night, and various matters of interest to town and valley were discussed.
 Secretary c. W. Collins made a f. nancial report and also a report of his work at the State Fair at Sacra- mento, in which the Imperial County exhibit, made through the activeness of Fl Centro organizations and indi- vlduals, won several prizes and att tracted much attenion.
 The president of the Chamber was instructed to appear before the Board of Supervisors and ask for the pay ment of $1O0 to cover the expense of making this display.
 The matter of issuing a descriptive pamphlet or booklet for Fl Centro and Imperial Valley was discussed and the advertising and publicity committee was instructed to cooperate with a similar committee from the Fl Centro Merchants and Manufacturers Asso- citation in the issue of an edition of at least 10000 of such books, which it is estimated can be prepared for 5000.
 After a general discussion of the hospital situation, in which the work and enterprise of Central Hospital, founded by Dr. Virgil McCombs, was highly commended, the Chamber voted to adopt a resolution inviting the Sis ters of Mercy to establish their hos pital in El Centro if they intend to locate such an institution in Imperial Valley. It is understood that nego- tiations are pending for the purchase of the Central Hospital by this order
 The matter of establishing a ceme- tery was discussed and the Chamber was notified that an organization was now being ff.cted for this purpose so no definite action was taken by this body.
 It was decided to change the regu- lar meeting night of the Chamber ol Commerce to the second Wednesday of each month.

OELOzER CO.'S SUCCESS
Wins Two Prizes and SaIesman's Award for Seasons Sales of
 Hoosier Kitchen Cabinets.

Expert salesmanship and the judi cious use of advertising space ex- clusively in the Imperial Valley Press have landed three good prizes for the Delozier Furniture Company, of Fl Centro, in a contest for the sales of Hoosier kitchen cabinets.

 Good dairy cows are cheaper in Inn perial Valley than they are in Los An geles, the same grade of animals which sell for $15O in the city are sell ing for $125 in the valley.
 The steady, sure income derived from dairying has proved attractive to many ranchers, and the dairy busi- ness is certain to expand to large proportions. With feed plentiful all the. year round, and the consistent Imperial Valley is certain to lead the state in this line.

DAIRY BUSINESS GROWS
Fully Two Thousand Milk Cows Added to Valley Herds During the Past
 Year, Say Stock Dealers Here.

An addition of fully 2000 high grade milk cows to the dairy herds of Im- perial Valley during the past twelve months is the estimate of F. L. Davis, of the firm of Crawford & Davis. This firm has handled more dairy stock in Imperial Valley than any other concern, and has kept close track of the development of the dairy business during the past season.
 Crawford & Davis have shipped in cows in 200 and 300 lots from San Diego County and the San Bernardino Valley; Kaiser Brothers shipped in 800 head, and other shipments have been made to individuals, that the estimate of an increase of 2000 cows is considered conservative one,
 This stock has been scattered out to all parts of Imperial Valley in punches of from ten to ninety, and in many cases they have gone to ranches where dairylng was not carried on before. Eleven strings" of dairy cows have been placed in the Mes quite Lake district within the past six months. Twelve have gone into HoltyIlle district. The sales of tho Crawford & Davis Company for the past six weeks amount to almost s2O.OOO. Many small shipments have

counted for.
 In the opinion of some lawyers Col. Holabird is not the receiver of the California Development Company and never has been vested with any au- thority over it's contracts except as they apply exclusively to the mort gagged property and that even the court has no power to authorize him to change the rates fixed by the con tracts.
 The affairs of the c. D. Co., and the mutual companies seem to be tied in a Gordian knot and the more the railroad lawyers pull at it the tighter it binds But possibly there is a way to cut that knot Suppose the mutual companies, representing the principal creditor of the c. D. Co.,, the body of waterusers, whose money built the system, should go into court, allege that the c. D. Go. is insolvent Gan al- legation that was not made in the case now before the court) and ask for the appointment of a receiver for the pro- lection of all the creditors, would not most of the tangles and complications that now look hopeless be eliminated? |?
 In the final settlement neither the Southern Pacific nor any other cred itor would recover the full amount of it's claim, but all would share equitably in the division of proceeds of sale and the interests of the holders of water. stock would be considered as they are not considered by the litigants now in court. Any creditor, of course, would like to get the full amount of his claim and let the others whistle but the others are not very wise if they sit idly by and let one get away with the whole works.
 In the meantime a step toward preservation of water rights would be intervention of holders of water stock in the case now before the court, and it is understood that complaint in intervention on behalf of one of the mutual companies is being prepared.
 Naturally the directors of the mu- tuals and most of the water-users went up in the air" when notice of the receivers action was made public, and some of them denounced him un- sparingly and with no consideration for the difficulties of his position and no remembrance of the hard and con- scientious work he has done to keep water flowing in the canals.
 No order of court, directing or au- thorizing the increase of rates, had been made, and the question of the receivers power to abrogate contracts without specific order of court has been raised. Judge Cole explains that although no order was asked for or made, the matter was discussed by the receiver and himself and the in crease of rates was treated as a mat ter of business, to be determined by the needs of the canal system.
 The Water Commission, the presi- dents of mutual companies and water users generally will meet in Imperial today, and it is expected that At torney Haines will be present and assist in threshing out the water situ- ationS
 It is probable that the Commission of Eleven will make it's final report to the presidents, perhaps a majority and minority report on the irriga- tion district question, and ask to be discharged.
