adjoining the site Of the present plant.
plans drawn and machinery ordered
from Dallas, Tex, which will give Cal
exico a gin with a capacity of so
bales daily. The new building and ma
chinery will cost $4,000. exclusive Of
the cost Of the lots. Work on the
building will be started next week and
it Is expected to have 1t ready for the
machinery by the time 1t arrives. J.
Spears, manager for the Imperial VAL
ley Oil and Cotton Company. was in
Calexico Wednesday working on prep
arations for this new building. That
cotton growing in Imperial valley Is
far past the experimental stage is evi-

is more money to be made growing

ur-e the point that the opening Of the

IN the history Of san Diego county
because Of the fact that the read pro-
vides 4 new and easily accessible gate
way from the great southwestern en-
plrc to the Pacific coast. They be-
neve that the linking OF San Diego
with the marvelously fertile Imperial
valley and the entire state Of Arizona
by a highway that can be travelled
every day in the year is commercial
accomplishment which is approached
only by the wonderful engineering feat
which made it possible.
by many the cutting of the new
highway through the solid granite wall
of the mountain was said to he the
widest fancy, but John +. Forward j..
and F. w. Jackson, the men whose
minds conceived the undertaking, We're

desire that the untiring efforts Of these
men and the assistants they gathered
about them in raising the money by
public subscription be fully recognized

pishment Of the seemingly impossible
in the final realization Of this impor-
tant and much needed avenue to the
east said one Of the active committoe
workers yesterday.
1.-THE committee also wishes to di
rect attention to the fact that in addi-
ton to the interest in the new highway,
the excursion provides an excellent op-
portunity for those who have never
seen the Imperial valley to continue
the trip through that wonderful agr;
cultural empire OF the southland.
