Mr.. Dix was nominated by vote OF
434 to 16 for Congressman SuIzer. All
the other nominations were made by

for its government of the state. The

TO THE PUBLIC.

We beg to invite attention to the opening of the second fall term of the Imperial Valley Business College. Monday, October 3rd, 1910.
 We are endeavoring to build up an institution which will be a credit to our wonderful Valley and it's progress sive citizens; but in order to do this, we must have the o-operation of the Valley people. If not personally in- terested in the matter of business education, will you not say a good word for the home school to any one you may know, who is contemplating taking a business course?
 Our courses of instruction are broad and our work is entirely practical, be- ing the result of many years experi- ence in both the teaching and practice of modern business methods. There is a special advantage to be gained from attending a small school, provi- NM Nii"N oShOOi ID III llS methods, on account of the large amount of individual instruction 1t is possible for each pupil to receive. This personal attention is of great value to the business student and as- sures thorough work and rapid pro- gross.
 The demand for clerical help in the Valley is far in excess of the supply. All our graduates of last year secured immediate employment and we could have placed many others. It is grati- flying to us to know that our first graduates all made good" It is an indorsement of our claim that our work is practical and an assurance to future students that our diploma is recognized by business men as cer- tihcate of competency.
 Very respectfully yours,
 Imperial Valley Business College.

Giglt of the members of the Con- Bittee of Eleven, appointed to inves- sigate water problems of Imperial Valley and to recommend action on sonfe definite line, met at the Court Rouse in Fl Centro last Monday. The committee members in attendance were Chairman Wills and Messrs. Me F2rerrin, Redwood, Burger, Webster, Ferguson, Patten and Upton. The meeting attracted the attendance of aUmerous ranchers from various parts Df ihe valley, who took a keen interest aa the discussions of the committee.
 The various communications from ERdge A. Haines, who has been en- Rsoyed as attorney to investigate the Euestion of formation of an irrigation district in this valley, were read and srdered placed on file
 Communications were read from At a0Eney Britt, of Los Angeles, who in- 7icated that he believed the fees he would have charged for his services would be too large for the committee ID be justified in engaging him.
 F. s. Webster stated that he had seen informed by an attorney that a aeM decision had been rendered by ahe supreme court to the effect that water rising in country belongs to that country, and that this decision is yltal to Imperial Valley, as in view sf this we could go to Mexico and negotiate a treaty for rights of way hcr canals in exchange for water to be delivered to Mexican lands.
 F. M. Burger advocated the employ ment of home attorney in preference en attorneys from outside. Dr. E. E. Paften moved that the Committee of Eleven recommend to the presidents af the water companies that Attorney &ritt be employed in addition to Judge Haines, and entirely independent of szte selection of Judge Haines, if satisfactory terms can be arranged.
 Webster favored employment of a iescaf attorney and offered an amend 2ent to Patton's motion to the effect 4hat a local attorney be employed Eth the privilege of securing outside aeip if he sees fit.

PROFIT IN ALFALFA SEED.

Ranchers in the Yuma Valley have demonstrated this season that raising alfalfa seed for the market is a profit able business. Nearly all the alfalfa growers of that valley have entered into an association planned to handle this crop; the seed is standardized by cleaning and thorough inspection. and the marketing is handled by tEe as- sociation's agent The result is that orders have been received for more seed than the farmers have on hand. F. E. Elliott, one of the seed pro- ducers, returned to Yuma Valley last week from trip to San Francisco and Los Angeles, bringing with him orders for three carloads of alfalfa seed or 90,000 pounds, at fourteen cents per pound. He has also received from Kansas City an order for five carloads at fifteen cents per pound. Alfalfa is producing from 800 to 800 pounds of seed to the acre in Yuma Valley, and in addition to the seed cutting the fields produce five or six cuttings for hay. With the results obtained by the Yuma Valley alfalfa growers, it is probable Imperial Valley ranchers will turn portion of their attention to producing a seed crop from their many acres of this croD
