MONEY MAKES THE MARE CO;
 AND ORGANIZATION SAVES WASTE

Especial to the Yuma Daily Examiner
 SAN DIEGO, Cal, July 15.-By a vote of 16 to 1, with half the voting population at the polls July 1, this city passed bond issue of nearly a million dollars for completion of the San Di- ego Panama-California Exposition on the lines made necessary by the gov ernment requirements and the needs of the states and countries that have decided to participate therein.
 The original fund was stock sub scription of $1,0OO,00O Then came a bond issue of $1,0OO,000 Both these funds are about half expended; $600,- 900 of the bond issue remaining in the treasury. The work of organization developed early that the funds were not sufficient if all the states and countries that notified the exposition of their coming really came. The cap ital stock increased by $2,500,OO0, mak- ing the total capitalization $3,5OU,00o with S1,116,OOO fully subscribed. On top of this it was decided to make an other bond issue of $S5O,0O0 and this bond issue has just been made. San Diego, therefore, has all the money she needs with which to finish her expo sition. Governments and states will, of course, spend their own funds.
 Work on the physical completion of the project has never Jagged. There are now four main buildings almost completed, fifth under way and the plans ready and contracts let for four more. The California state building will be started in few weeks, the contract having been signed at $242,- 900 by the state commission.
 Money makes the mare go, but it takes organization to spend the money without wasting it. San Diego has more for her money than any similar enterprise ever started in this country and is so far ahead of any exposition n the same comparative time that it is trite to say that it will be ready on time. It could be ready in Sep tember, 1914, if anything should make t desirable or expedient to open at that time.

The exposure few days since in the columns of the Press of the de- generate condition of affairs in Mexi- cali has brought about prompt reform.

MEXICO CITY, July 14.-Ameri- cans, though given to caution, antici- pate no immediate danger here as a result of the anti-American demonstra- tions of the past few days.

HEAT IN CALIFORNIA
 CAUSES COMMENT

Imperial valley is experiencing a bad run of heat, and it behooyes every body to be on their good behavior. First of all suppress the almost uni versal tendency to peevishness. It doesn't help you and it makes i'll win that may last longer than the heat.
 The San Diego Union has been con- piling interesting comments by papers throughout the state, which it gives as follows:.
 This is the season when the editors of papers published in the interior of California feel constrained to write weather editorials in which the preva- lent warm wave is minimized, so far as it may be truthfully belittled, and sometimes discussed with utter disre- gard of truth. It is impossible, of course, actually to deny the tempera tires registered, by the thermometers and it is deemed bad policy not to sand up for the glorious climate of California" and as a result each writer displays more or less ingenuity in eff forts to eXtricate himself from the qAndry in which the soaring mercury intces him. Some, it may be remark ed with regret, qualify for the Ana nits club. At least this inference will be drawn from the Stockton Mail, witch declares:

N. f. BARNES BOOSTS
 IN THE TUCSON CITIZEN

"So far from being burdened by it's heat, Yuma is literally coining that heat into dollars" said w. E. Barnes, travelling freight and passenger agent for the Southern Pacific, in the Tucson Citizen
 Peaches, figs, grapes, watermelons, cantaloupes, plums and all kinds of vegetables are being, hauled into Yuma every morning in great wagon loads and are sold very cheaply, but at a profit to the grower. It is surprising to see the amount of produce that is being piled up in Yuma. Some of it is being shipped to nearby markets, even as far east as Tucson. By far the greater amount is consumed right at home.
 Dairy products have become very important factor in the comerclal field of Yuma. Large herds of dairy cows, some thoroughbred and all high grade are furnishing milk for cream and butter of the finest kind.
 Alfalfa Seed Crop
 "The alfalfa and grain crops are splendid. Much attention is to be paid this year, more than ever before, tc the production of alfalfa seed. Yuma has previously established something of a reputation for furnishing alfalfa seed in large amounts It commands high prices, and is vastly more profita- ble. when we'll developed and clean, than is hay.
 Water for 36,o0o Acres
 According to the reconds of the reclamation service offices in Yuma, which I visited, there are now about '17OOO acres of land under cultivation in the Yuma valley. The reclamation service is prepared to supply water to 36,OO0 acres in all That land which is not now under cultivation, but for which water is available, is in strong
 
 demand. Inquiries are being received from even far distant points. Parties in England are negotiating for tra t of 1 1.0O0 acres. The chamber of com. merce has record of more thar 200 visitors in the past two or three months.
