within that time to have placed the
name Kellogg Wardner" on its folders

cial documents.
This is the first time In the history
OF the commission it had been called
upon to change a name OF railroad
station and is in a sense a victory for
Wardner which Is the rival town o.
Kellogg. Some time ago the railroad
company decided to adopt the name of
Kellogg in preference TO Wardner with
the result that the name Wardner was
dropped and Kellogg was substituted
a loud protest Immediately went up
from Wardner over being so uncere-
moniously wiped off the map. Ward
ner carried it's protest to the commits
sion. Objection was made to hyphen :

This is the kind the commission ord :
ers adopted however.

In its opinion and order the commits
sion quotes from the case of the state
versus the railroad commission, 1876 Pa
cifle. 95S, from the supreme court of the
state of Washington, a case in which
of the railroad station made by the
railroad company, as follows:
1T cannot be seriously argued that
the railway company has not the right
to choose and use names for its sta
tons without interference herewith by
the commission except ii be in cases

What Idaho Commission Says.
Continuing the commission says:
with this doctrine we are quite in ac-
cord. 1t viii be found that the court
comments quite fully on the appro-
priateness Of the respective names in
question, and reaches the conclusion
that the name chosen by the railway
was, under the circumstances,
the most appropriate and in line with
the necessities attending the efficiency
of the service. 1t is well settled that
the resultant Inconvenience to the rail-
road company in adopting a hyphenat-

ANOTHER TROLLEY
LINE PROJECTED


Applications for street car fran
chises are coming thick and fast
within the last few days, J. B. Hous-
ton having a representative at the
session of the city trustees Tuesday
evening requesting the city to grant
forty year franchise from Imperial
to Ell Centro, the matter being re-
ferred to the committee on public
utilities.
Mr.. Houston represents number o.
Imperial capitalists who, together
with other men of the valley, hope
to raise sufficient funds to induce
the state railroad commission to grant
permission to issue bonds SO that work
may be commenced. 1t was stated
last night that actual operations on
the contract part of the line would
begin within three months after the
granting of the franchise.
A group of San Diego capitalists
have already filed notice of incor
poration of line to run from Calexi-
co to Brawley with Ell Centro as the
central distributing point of the sys-
tenn.
There has been some contention
that w. F. Holt and w. T. Bill re-
served rights for street car lines on
the property owned by them and that
this has never been vacated, but the
trustees were unable to determine
whether this reservation was still val
id or not.
According to sentiment expressed
by one of the city trustees, it is not
believed that Main street will be used,
Broadway being preferred. The San
Diego corporation desires to run down
Broadway to Fifth and thence south
ward to Calexico, but it is said the
trustees will insist that the line be
continued until Fourth street is
reached and thence to the depot and
then south.
The Imperial group of promoters
aim to construct the line between I'm
perial and Ell Centro at the earliest
possible moment and afterwards branch
out to the other cities of the valley.
Their representative agreed to sub
nit all plans, surveys, right of way.
ETC., at the next meeting of the city
trustees. City Attorney J. S. Larew
advised them that it would necessarily
take considerable time for the city to
pass on such request and the ques-
ton was laid over for future action.

Yesterdays Cotton Market.

New York, March 25.-Opening
prices were about in line with cables
and after ruling steady throughout
the greater part of the session All
easier tone prevailed to the close with
prices a up on old crop positions and
4 to 5 down on the new crop posi-
tions from last night. A prominent
house was credited with buying abou,
$4,000 bales of summer months early
in the trading, which was thought to
be for straddle account. The leading
local Professionals were again inclined
to be bearish and furnished most of
the cotton. Commission houses and
Wall street were also fair sellers on
the advance. The rumor that COM
bination of southern mills would take
up the local stock and ship the same
out was generally discredited and did
not affect the market to any extent.
Some complaints regarding weather
conditions in the South, especially
from Texas, are coming in, but most
of the reports indicate fairly good
progress in new crop positions.
Following are the closing quota
tions today: aJnuary, 11.37@3S;
March, 12.04@05; April, 12.37@45:

Les Angeles Produce Market.

Los Angeles, March 25.-The weak
ness which has been apparent in eggs
for several days yesterday brought
about decline of l cent in the Los
Angeles produce exchange quotation
on the case count. Monday several
cases of eggs sold for 19c a dozen,
but later sales forced the last price
back to zoe. Yesterday there was &
slight effort to keep the price up,
but enough eggs were offered at 19c
to put the quotation there. Butter
was unchanged yesterday, no sales
being made, although 221Ac pound
was bid, with no offers.
There is little better supply of
new potatoes on the market at the
present time and the price on them
ranges from SC to &c pound. The
best stock comes from the north
and brings the highest quotation for
the potatoes from local fields arc
most of them very small, being little
larger than marbles. A better and
larger amount of wax beans has sent
them down to 10c to lie. "a pound. Most
of them are from Imperial. These
beans are not moving very well as
there seems to be little demand for
thm at the rather high rate now be-
ing asked for them.
The lowest quotation of the pres
ent season was reached on strawber-
ries yesterday, when many boxes sold
for as low as 4c box. The best
grade on the market, very good quail
ity, sold for &c box. Dealers say
that the berries are coming in in
large amounts and that there will
probably be low prices for some time.
Receipts of produce IN Los Ange'
les yesterday were: Eggs, 619 cases;
butter, 64,850 pounds; cheese, $3.50
pounds; potatoes, 5,376 sacks; beans,
5 sacks; sweets, lit sacks.

on butter and eggs are taken from

PLANTS HAVE AFFINITIES
SAME AS "AFFINITY EARLE

Washington, March 25.-To the un-
limited initiated it would seem that
more than the Atlantic ocean and
few hundred miles of land separated
"Affinity" Earle in Paris and field
of cow peas in Arkansas, but the
Bureau of Plant Industry has just
proven that forage crops have af
finities just as marked as the noto-
rious artist. Cow peas in particular
have an affinity for oats.
1t has long been known to scien
lists that some plants are benefited
and some are injured by association,
and recent experiments have demon
strated that leguminous plants, in
GLIDING peas, clover and alfalfa, when
planted with certain cereals show 4
mutual increase in productivity. 1t ap-
pears that the leguminous plants not
only gather nitrogen from the atmo-
sphere by means of their root tubercle
bacteria and are therefore able to
make a large growth, but that some
of the nitrogen so gathered is passed
on to the nonleguminous plant as
sociated with it.
The affinity of the stalwart timo-
thy for the blushing red clover has
long been understood by farmers in
a general way, and now it has been
demonstrated that timothy has an
other affinity in alfalfa. Needless to
say, clover and alfalfa do not get
along we'll together.
"The increased growth of plants in
combination over that of single crops,
together with the improved compo-
sition of the former, has resulted in
some cases of an increase of more
than thirty per cent in the produc
tion of protein per acre. This in
creased value probably extends to the
roots and the stems left in the soil
and means much in the production of
food for stock and in soil improve
ment.
