THIS is THE DAY
FOR PANAMA BOOKS

On Saturday the Panama certificates
matured, and readers who pre-
sent six of them and the small eX'
pense fee will be entitled to a copy
of panama and the Canal in Picture
and Prose-" as previously announce
in these columns.
Considering the large number of in
quiries already received from those
interested it is believed that there
will be a great demand for these
books, and readers are urged to pre-
sent their certificates as early as pos
sible. The present supply of books
is thought to be sufficient to fill all
demands under normal conditions, but
the offer is so unusual and the books
are so attractive that some readers
may be disappointed if they do not
present their certificates at once.
Everybody that sees this wonderful
book wants it. 1t is difficult to de-
scribe such a volume in cold type,
and utterly impossible to portray its
beauties in any kind of an illustra
ton. for it's wealth of harmonious
colorings cannot be reproduced. Its
contents are unique in that they COM
prise a series of interesting stories
about the Canal, the country, the
people-where they live, what they
eat, how they employ their time in
pleasure and work-and all of these
pleasing little stories are made up
into one complete story which is OF
intense interest to all.
The Imperial Valley Press is cog
infant of the educational benefits to
be derived from this volume, which
gives the complete history of the great
Canal, setting forth its purpose and
promise, and for the benefit of read
ers, as heretofore announced, it has
arranged for great distribution,
which began Saturday. Hereafter, un-
til further notice, Panama certificate
will be printed daily. Eight OF these
certificates have already appeared in
these columns and these will be eX-
changed for books when accompanied
by the expense amount named there
in.
Clip. the certificates and present
them SB day until further notice.

WEST SIDE AFFAIRS
MAKING PROGRESS

The fear of serious water short
age on the Westside is steadily pass
ing away. The big Westside Mair
is regularly well filled with the ole
Colorado's life giving fluid. The big
dredger recently built by the Califor-
MIA Development Co. at DiXieland is
steadily moving southwark digging q
fine big canal as she progresses.
The Cotton Valley Land & Water
Co. is preparing to develop fine val
ley known as Cotton Valley, about Is
miles west of Dixieland The land in
this valley is said to be exceptionally
fertile. J. r. Williams of Dixieland has
finished his contract for the hauling
of well drilling machine and casing
from DiXieland to their lands.
That the company mean business is
evident from the fact that they use
14-inch casing for their wells and that
their equipment made twelve six and
eight-horse loads. A number of good
wells have recently been found and
it now seems quite probable that
thousands of acres of the desert be-
tween the mountains and the valley
may yet be covered with spineless
cactus and other crops.
r. E. Lee, one of DiXieland's pio.
neer settlers is very busy preparing
to make the 4th of July celebration
to be given at Ell Centre the finest
exhibition of its kind ever seen in
Southern California Mr.. Lee although
now practically retired was for more
than 25 years prominently known
throughout the middle west and east
as a fireworks expert. Those who
witnessed his skill at the Omaha EX-
position, Mckinley Day at Chicago
and the X. of P. conclave at st.
Louis are his most enthusiastic sup
porters.
Bert Hoir has his big garage nearly
completed and already has good
business started. R. T. O'Hagan has
rented the repair shop.
The establishment of a good gar
age at Dixieland gives one more con-
venience to the travelling public on
the State Highway.
Dixieland is to have a new three
room, reinforced concrete school build
ing ready for the fall term. The
building is to be of the Mission style,
exterior walls will have the slap dash
finish, the roof will project five feet
over the sides and all rooms are to be
so they can be thrown into
one room for entertainment. Large
windows on all sides will insure excel
lent ventilation. The Westside Land
Co. have donated 20 lots for grounds
which are to be beautifed with trees
and shrubbery. Messrs j. R. Butler
and F. G. Camden have the cotnract
for the building and will commence
construction at once.
The construction of the San Diego
and Arizona Railroad is progressing
Mr.. Dutton, superintendent
of construction now has two track
laying and ballasting crews at work
near Tecate and one crew of 40 men
west of Coyote Wells. Thirty more
men are needed with this crew az
once. Bridge material for 20 new
bridges is expected daily and as soon
as the material arrives many men Will
be wanted for construction work.
Eleven of the bridges will be frame
