SUPERVISORS ARE PLEASED
OVER CANYON ROAD WORK
Clark and Bennett Make inspection
Trip to Mountain Springs and Re-
turn With Reports of Progress

Working long term prisoners on the
county roads is proving good solu-
ton of the problem of an over crowd
ed county bastile. The county is get
ting one of it's worst roads put into
fair condition and the prisoners pre-
fer the outdoor exercise to being
cooped up in small quarters with cur
tailed privileges.
Supervisors Clark and Bennett made
a trip of inspection to DEVILS canyon
last Saturday and have returned with
good reports of the progress being
made there on the county road work
Under the supervision of Mr.. Ken
drick, who is practical road builder,
the prisoners have tackled some of
the worst places on the canyon high
way and have put them into good con-
dition. About a mile and half of
the worst stretches have been COM
pleted, and travellers are expressing
their appreciation. Low places have
been built up and abrupt bends have
been shaved down. passing places for
teams have been dug out and rocks
have been used for building up re-
tanning walls About a half mile of
entirely new road is to be constructed
to throw the highway up out Of a
place where it now travels the bed
of the canyon.
Mr. Clark stated today that he con-
siders the work being done on the
canyon road a good investment for the
county. no matter what the final route
of the Imperial valley-San Diego road
may be through the mountains, as he
believes that the present road will be
used for at least two years.

BUILD INTO SAN DIEGO

ESCONDIDO, Jan. 19.-"We have
delivered to the Southern Pacific Rail
way Company deed for a 100-fOot
right of way through our property at
the Pauma ranch" was the statement

condido Chamber of Commerce last
evening by Edward M. Fowler, a mem =
Der of the syndicate which a short
time ago bought the famous Pauma
property, and which is making active

The Pauma ranch is one of the i'm
portant tracts of land along the upner
end of the San Luis Rey river, a few

Charles Foreman of the Pacific Light
and Power Company few weeks ago
the consideration named being 5000,
900. 1t consists of about 10000 acres
and has important water rights. Mr.
Fowler states that about 1000 are to
be put into citrus trees Immediately
and that 5000 acres of the bottom land
also will be placed on the market with
in a short time.
A dam is to be built for the stor-
age of water for irrigation and power
purposes, and arrangements have been
made for the immediate Improvement
of a large portion of the entire tract
The property is to be handled
through Escondido, the decision hav-
ing been reached by the syndicate sew
eral weeks ago, and so stated in a
letter from MI Fowler to the Cham
Der of Commerce. The chamber i'm.
mediately acknowledged the receipt of

HAVANA, Jan. 19.-Turbulence that
has marked the recent activities Of
the Cuban reactionaries is allayed to-
day, pending the result of the delib-
erations of committee of Liberal
congressman, who are seeking to de-
terinine upon a presidential candidate
who possesses sufficient tact and eX-

factions.
The committee, which was named
late yesterday, met today. Il is un-

will be the eventual selection.
Prospects of American invasion,
threatened unless Cuba's internal

caused a revulsion of feeling, Tor the
leaders Of both factions today appear
willing to sacrifice points in order to
avert the proposed contingency An
amicable settlement today appears

SAVING BIRD LIFE

One of the finest acts of recent days
has been the buying of Marsh island
near the Louisiana coast, ty Mrs. Rus.
sell Sage through the enterprise of E.
A. McIlhenny as a refuge for game
and other birds.
The 20 market gunners who have
made a living off the island will have
to hunt elsewhere. But millions of
dollars may be saved the farmers of
the United States, through the de-
struction of insect pests by the birds
that will be saved.
Which suggests that there are many
other bird resorts where few pot
hunters are annually, killing great flock
of these geese that lay golden eggs.
It is a matter of common observa-
ton that birds are not as numerous
as they used to be generation ago.
It is also matter of common obser-
walton that farm crops are being raw.
aged by pests to far greater Elk ent
than formerly.
According to all investigations OF
science. destruction Of bird life has
let loose q horde of pests on the far.
mer's head. This involves the expend.
iture of millions Of dollars for spray.
J ing crops. At best the work of the
pests can be only partly prevented.
Hence a contributing cause to the
scarcity of food that adds to the cost
Of daily living. t-9a
Itwould be a wise and far sighted
act for the government to buy up any
place where birds congregate There
should be ample power to take such
land by condemnation proceedings.
| A bird may seem of no earthly use
In some sections, but it may be the
only effective protector Of the far
mer's crops elsewhere. a
1t was formerly thought that no one
but poets and sentimentalistd wanted
birds preserved. The intelligent farme
Of today knows that the birds are his
best friends. If refugees could be es
tablished wherever birds hibernate, {
few millionakres and GLORIOUS girls
might have to get along without birt
pie. but there would be more pota
toes, apples, and wheat bread for tn,
poor mans table.
| Why should the crops Of the natiol
suffer from pests. merely that the gid
J ed rich Of metropolitan hotels ma.
have their bird suppers?
