the cost of living which has nothing
to do with the tariff. Twenty per cent
of the eggs raised on the farms go

axiom in the country that anything
with a shell on 1t can get by.
QANISHlNG the rooster Is of great
- advantage in getting eggs that will
keep. Infertile eggs will remain
good much longer than those which
are fertile. Washed eggs rot more
quickly than those not washed.
Somebody has figured out that for

Take a look at the last dozen bought

Under present conditions the man

WORK ON LEVEE
is BEGUN TODAY

The directors of the irrigation dis
trict last evening appropriated $2,-
600 for repair work on the levee near
the international line, placing the
work under the management of Di-
rector G.. w. Brockman.
Several days ago the channel of
the river was diverted from the Ari-
zona side against the levee, under
mining it for a short distance, and
it is necessary that this be repaired
before the June flood.
Each year it is necessary that such
work be done, that the levee can be
kept in proper condition, and this
years work is being done by the ir-
rigation district, which will probably
soon be in full possession of the sys-
tenn.
1t is expected that the cost of the
work this year will range from $685.
900 to 100000, or less than 10 cents
an acre for the land benefited.

JURY ACQUITS
SCHILKE CHARGE
SPEED VIOLATION

A verdict of not guilty was the re-
suit of a jury trial before Justice
of the Peace 1. Mayfeld this morn
ing, at which Fred Schilke, proprie +.
tor of stage line between Ell Cen
tro and Imperial, was charged with
violating the speed ordinance, Owen
Chick, motor policeman, stating that
at the time of arrest Schilke was
running at. the rate of thirty-six
miles per hour. .H 4"t
Deputy District Attorney Herbert
i. Iasigi prosecuted the case, while
Schilke managed his own side. The
trial was replete with many accusa-
tions as to competency to determine
speed. The jury was out about one
half hour. Schilke stated after the
trial that he would dispose of his
holdings here and move to Arizona.

IMPERIAL COUNTY'S
NEW JAIL RECEIVES
ONE MORE SETBACK

Another chapter has been added to
The building of the new county JAIL
County Engineer C. N. Perry hav.
ing received letter from Stuart A.
Queen, the new secretary of the
State Board of Charities and Cor
rections, in which that official no.
titled the Imperial county engineer
that the air and lighting plans of
the proposed Jail did not meet with
the entire approval of the state board
and that the matter would be turned
over to DR.. John R. Haynes of Los
Angeles for further investigation.
The letter said in part: 81 am
returning proposed plans with fur i,
ther suggestions with reference to
light and air space. This matter has
been turned over to DR.. John R.
Haynes, who will confer with you
as soon as possible, as we are aware
of the fact that you are greatly in
need of new Jail in your coun-
ty."
County Engineer C. N. Perry is
more amused at the action of the
state board than provoked. He sent
mis- original and amended plans to
one of the largest Jail building con-
Gems in the United States and that
company has advised him that there
are twenty-one of identical construc-
tior in California and several in Ne
vada.
Mr.. Perry had prepared a plan
which was entirely suitable to the
available site and, according to the
authorities in this county, was adapt
ed to all the requirements of the in
mates. Numerous changes had been
made at the instance of the state
board until Mr.. Perry finally decided
to have them plan the Jail and then
he would supervise.
At that, it seems impossible for
the state board to agree on what
they want. The main contentious are
light and air. The letter, as received
from the state secretary, was turned
over to the board of county supervi-
sors, it being understood that they
are working with the county engineer
and have not had the least complaint
to make of his efforts in the matter
of getting out plans for the new
Jail.

COUNTY CLERK is
TO HAVE ADDITIONAL.
OFFICE DEPUTIES

The board of county supervisors
yesterday authorized County Clerk
Major S. Cook to employ two addi-
tional deputies in his office. One
of these will be used to aid in the
county registration, vast amount
of clerical labor being necessary be-
tween now and November. The other
deputy will remain in office until
about July 1, when the usual sum-
mer recess is taken by the superior
court.
One of the new deputies will be
used as court clerk as Deputy
Thompson is swamped with records
of various cases disposed of in the
past. The registration requires
large amount of literature to be senc
to each voting precinct. The index
to the great register must also be
furnished to each precinct. Speci-
men ballots, return sheets and vari-
Gus other voting forms have to be
supplied.
At the suggestion of County En-
gineer c. N. Perry yesterday to the
board of supervisors, r. M. Sanders
was appointed official inspector of
the new bridge at lockwood. The
bridge is nearing the point where it
is necessary to have efficient super
vision, Mr.. Perry being of the belief
that Mr.. Sanders would be able TO
look after the county's interest in
every respect.

Los Angeles, April 7.--An appro-

100000, 1000 a year for river regula-
ton, providing mot less than $4,000

in the pending Newlands-Broussard
bill and will be used as campaign
material by Delegates John d. Reavis

They believe that in this proposed
legislation they find grounds to back
them in the demand that Imperial val
ley be granted prior right protection
to Colorado river water; that the
government build storage tanks to
impound a precautionary supply, and
for the appointment Of Colorado

of water from this stream so that
there may be uniform regulations for
water users on both sides of the
river.

IMPERIAL VALLEY
GETTING PUBLICITY

Imperial valley is reaping rich
harvest in publicity from all sources
newspapers, magazines, farm period.
Gals, news letters, speeches and let
ters. There are many more valleys
in the state, and many other coun
ties, but Imperial county apparently
is taking the palm when it comes to
deserved publicity.
The California Farmer, published
at San Jose, in it's April issue has
devoted large space to Imperial val
ley's development and varied pro-
ducts. The. front cover page is en-
bellished with cotton gin yard
scene. Loaded wagons of the cotton
are seen awaiting their turn at the
gin. The picture was taken at Ca
lexico and is descriptive of the busy
scenes at each gin.
One of the leading articles in the
Farmer was a cotton story by F. w.
Waite. horticultural commissioner o.
this county. Edward Story of Dixie
land contributed another on the plant
ing of cotton.
Orchard and Farm, one of the lar
gest publications of it's kind in the
west, sent it's editor here for sever Il
weeks to investigate Imperial valley
and its products. On his return ~
San Francisco, d. j. Whitney, ed;-
tor. proceeded to fill his periodical
with information pertaining to this
section--so much so that in his edi-
torial columns he apologized for the
extensive matter on Imperial vallev,
explaining that its wonders wee
such that of necessity it must b.,
written.
The front cover of Orchard and
Farm was decorated with a full page
view of the main canal, showing
wooded banks and cultivated fields
adjoining.
agricultural Wonders in Imper-
ial Valley" and "Profitable Dairying
in Imperial Valley" were two special
articles written by Mr.. Whitney for
this number.

Two delegations, one from Holt
Vile and the other from Calexico, ap-
peared before the board of county
supervisors this morning intent on
securing an appropriation of $500
from the county to defray the freight
charges and laying of planks which
San Diego had offered to Imperial
county for improving the Yuma-San
Diego highway in the vicinity of the
sandhills east of Holtville.
This body was acting independent
ly of the Ell Centre organization.
Each speaker spoke with a knowledge
of what the finished road would
mean to the county. They even in
timated that if the supervisors were
of the opinion that the county could
not spare the funds, that they would
be Forthcoming elsewhere.
Fritz Kloke, president of the Ca.
lexico National Bank; R. G. Goree,
president of the Farmers and Mer-
chants Club of Calexico; Chester AL
lison, chief engineer of the c. d.
Co., and S. T. Tyler of the same COM
pany, and J. M. Edmunds, vice pres
ident of the First National Bank of
Calexico, together with w. J. Seat
of Holtville, were among the chief
speakers.
The board refused to take any defi-
1ite action during the morning ses-
sion. One speaker suggested that the
supervisors authorize the county en-,
gineer to make survey of the best
route and submit rough estimate of
the probable cost of construction;
then the board would be in a better
position to appropriate.
Harmony prevailed between the
Holtville and Calexico delegations,
each side maintaining that they would
be satisfied in any event, just as
long as the sandhills We're made pass

benefits to be derived from the heavy
eastern automobile traffic coming to
San Diego next year, me nbers of
the board assuring the delegations
that they would be only too glad o
appropriate money for the cause if
they could find the funds 20 donate.
Holtville maintained that it would
not be exactly right and fair 70 sad
die any one community with the en-
tire cost, but stated decisively that
in the event that the county as a
whole could not appropriate, that the
Holtville district would, aud that
seemed to be the sentiment of the
delegates from CaleXieo.
