Cotton Grown in Imperial Valley
Will Produce 10000 to 10000 Bales
Arrival of Mill and Gin Machinery Bought by Cotton and Oil Com
pany at Ell Ceno-Japanese the Scene Figuring on Making
Purchases of Product in Advance of the Picking Season

Superintendent Walsh of the I'm
perial Valley Cotton and Oil company,
has returned from Texas, where he
completed the purchase and arranged
for the shipment of an oil mill of 80
ton capacity. The machinery will be
shipped as soon as the track to the mill
site, a ten-acre tract north of the In
terurban railroad, shall have been laid
by the Southern Pacific. G. P. Grace,
mechanical engineer, has arrived at Ell
Centre from Meridian, Miss, to assist
superintendent Walsh in putting up
the gins and mill. The gins have been
shipped and are on the way.
Reports from the south indicate de-
terioration of condition of the cotton
crop, due to drought, and a probable
shortage of about 100000 bales. This
means holding up of the price Of cot
ton, and 1t is likely that valley cotton
will bring better than IA cents, pos
sibly Is or more. The News adds that
Japanese buyers have been at Ell
Centro looking over the fields and
figuring on advance purchases.
Cotton seed oil is now quoted at 76
cents, wholesale. Last year the price
was 40 cents.

become a great factor in the develop
ment of Whittier. The Whittier asso-
citation of growers has about 25O0 acres
in walnut and the harvest promises
to be fully 12O carloads for the pres
ent season. In the Los Nietos and
Ranchito district there are about $500

yield of 10 carloads. In the markets
the Whittier English walnuts are now
at the top of the heap" bringing the

L. E. Shrack of Ell Centre, secretary
of the Imperial Valley Oil and Cotton
company, who paid The Herald call,
is very optimistic as to the future of
the Imperial valley in the line of
growing cotton for the markets of the
world.
The Ell Centre News states that but
very few cotton fields in the valley
were damaged by lack of water, and
in the opinion of experts some of them
have made better growth than they
would have made had water been
abundant, as inexperienced growers are
likely to overirrigate. The cotton oil
mill company and the LOTUS company
agree in the estimate of $4,000 acres of
growing cotton in good condition, and
O crop of 10000 bales may be expected.
The mill company, which operates the
gins, has ordered bagging and ties for
10, 900 bales.
The Lotus company has six pickers
at work in the Meloland fields and ex-
poets to have 200 bales ginned by the
last of September. Picking will be in
progress generally in the valley by the
middle of October

STILL PLANNING NEW ROAD.
Promoters of Line South From Water
I'm Ara Ruev

T'oHiosoFS OT Line ooutn from water.
loo Are Busy.
Waterloo, Jan. 1S.-One day this
week a meeting of those interested in
the subject of building a line of rail-
way south from Waterloo to connect
at some point with the Northwestern
and Milwaukee lines will be held and a
temporary organization perfected. The
articles of Incorporation have been
completed and will be inspected at this
meeting. There is still doubt as to the
southern terminus of the line, whether
it will be Tama City or Belle Plaine, or
possibly Marengo.
Marengo is hard after a new line
of railway and the citizens of that
place stand ready to put up a sub
stantial cash bonus for the completion
and operation of a line of railway into
the town. 1t is understood that as soon
as the organization here is completed
delegation Of citizens of Marengo will
visit Waterloo to show the capitalists
of this city what they can do and how
they propose to do it.
One of the leading financiers of
Waterloo has been in communication
with firm of contractors anxious to
do the construction work and also
with a firm handling bonds which is
ready to float any securities that
might be necessary to place on the
market.
While in the last few days there
has not been any great display OF
this railroad project, the promoters
have been quietly at work and much
of the preliminary arrangements have
been put out of the way.

and more impressed with the necessity
of securing an early knowledge of II.
This is due to the general education
OF the public carried on by the depart
ment on tuberculosis, and which for a
number OF years has been informing
the people that the earlier tuberculosis
is discovered the more certainty there is
of cure. An observation quite generally
made by the department on tubercu-
losis also is that the advanced con-
sumptive usually does not recover. and
that while this observation may be
melancholy. yet it has been a stimulus
for large numbers afflicted to seek
early such measures as might be avail
able for their treatment and cure.
The public hospital as q supplement
| tai factor in the eradication of tubercG-
| losis is therefore of untold value. 1t
will treat the patient while II protects
the community The location of these
hospitals should be on the principle of
the greatest good to the greatest num-
ber This is public policy when
should be followed always and such
hospital should be located accessible tc
the greatest population and adeauats
facilities for its economical manage
ment.
The general impulse along the line
of immediate control and relief of tu-
berculosis is most gratifying and on
every hand can be seen the evidences
of a general cooperation toward the
end that tuberculosis shah be stamped
out of Iowa.

Des Moines, Jan 1S-That the cam
paign against tuberculosis is making
Roadway is evidenced from the fact
that there appears to be a general
movement turnout the state towards
securing public hospitals for the treat
ment of medical and surgical diseases
in general and tuberculosis in particu-
lar. 1t is quite evident to those who
have become Interested in the sup
preston of tuberculosis that perhaps
the most potent factor would be hos
pitfalls for the isolation and treatment
of persons suffering with this disease.
This is believed to be fundamental in
any campaign for eradication.
The adequate care of the consump-
tive patient is of prime Importance in
the combat and it is one of the signifi-
cant signs of the progress of this
movement that the consumptive pa
tent is himself clamoring for the OPP
portunity to take treatment at his own
home. The awaiting list at the state
sanatorium indicates this as it is quite
| impossible to take care of all the APP
plicants who ask for admission there,
and if provision is made for them they
will gladly avail themselves of the open

vision for them, and by taking advant-
age of the public hospital law many
counties are looking towards the es-
tablishment of these institutions and
the necessity for the Immediate estab-
| lishment of such retreats is becoming
more imperative.
