A public meeting of citizens was held

The first proposed bill proposes an
amendment to the Delaware City

will be changed whereby the road on
Fifth street will be turned over to
New Castle county. This road is $40
of mile long.
The other proposed bill is to secure
the right to borrow $4,000 on notes
issued by Delaware City for the pur-
pore OF putting the road on Clinton
street in repair William B. Jester
and William A. Hagan were appoint
ed a committee to ask Town Council
TO notify the trolley company of the
clause in their charter with Delaware
City. which provides that the trolley
company must keep the streets in re-
pair over which their line runs.
Several plans for fixing the road

ARGYLE M'LiCHLAN REPORTS
ON DURANGO COTTON CROP

Argyle McLachlan. government cot
ton expert, who has devoted much OF
his time for three years to this valley
is the author of the following valuable
article published by the government In
circular No. 121 bureau of plant In
dustry, departmen of agriculture:
Observation-Disclosures cotton Is a
long staple upland variety recently in
troduced by the United States depart
ment of agriculture and apparently
we'll adapted to Imperial valley Condi-
tions. general account OF the variety
and of it's behavior in the Imperial
valley in comparison with other long
staple sorts has been given In recent
publication. The object of the pres
ent paper IS TO call attention to special
methods and precautions that need to
be observed in tho development OF a
long staple industry under the local
con editions. Most of the planters have
grown only short staple cotton in the
past and many are not familiar with
cotton culture or with methods of irri-
CATION.
Durango cotton was first grown in
the Imperial valley in 1911 by W. e.
Wilsie On three acres of land near Ell
Centre. In 1912 about 200 acres were
planted by six growers from seed
grown by Mr. Wilsie. Following the
favorable results obtained in 1911 and
1912, it appears that between 5000 and
1000 acres will be planted to Durango
cotton in tho Imperial valley in 1918.
All the available supplies of Durango
seed in Texas were purchased. A much
larger acreage would be planted If
more seed could be obtained. 1t is
also estimated that about 10000 acres
= ore VIII be planted to short staple
cotton, chiefly of the We3ane Cor Tri
umph) variety. This total estimate Of
rs 900 or more acres includes acreages
TO be planted in Lower California ad-
Joining the Imperial valley, which are
operated chiefly by residents OF the
valley and from which the crops are
