Pioneer Bakery

ut is barely credible that in the

perial Valley" said Wm Egerer
baker, ''this city has grown from a
dozen stores to prominent CONNER
cial center of California
Surprised himself at the astonishing
development of the Imperial Valley
VIM. Egerer does not wonder at the
attention Ell Centre and the other
towns of the valley are attracting
from the country. Coming to this city
seven years ago VIM. Egerer opened
the first bakery in Ell Centro and has
rightly named it the Pioneer Bakery.
He is public spirited citizen and a
fire and police commissioner of Ell
Centro.
In its growth with the city and COM
munity the Pioneer Bakery has kept
up a high standard of excellence and
has given cleanliness and purity the
first consideration. The cakes, pies,
pastries and breads are made of the
very best material and are equal to
the same goods sold in competition
throughout the valley.
Inc bakery occupies a brick build
ing on Main street, the place having
been erected for the special use of the
bakery, and it is modern in all depart
nents, and is one of the best equipped
IN the valley.
Located right in the heart of the
Imperial Valley" said Mr.. Egerer,
the city of Ell Centre is sure to have
is share of the future prosperity of
the county"

The Imperial Valley is literally a
land flowing with milk and honey. The
reader has already been informed con
cerning our wonderful dairy ranches.
AS honey producer Imperial County
takes first place among all the honey
producing counties of California-the
land of summer and of flowers.
And the industry is still in its in
fancy for it is only ten years since
the first bee colonies were brought into
the valley. This was done by ]. ".
Huff Of Silsbee. But it was not till
1907 that they were imported in a
commercial way. J. W. George was
the first large importer, bringing in
two car loads of colonies. Henry Per-
kiss brought in another car load and
others have shipped them in in small
er numbers. The Imperial Valley Bee
Keepers Association was organized
in 1907, at which time all the bee col
onies in the valley did not exceed
1000. But this number has steadily
increased till at the present time there
are $1,000 bee colonies in the county.
The bee industry is being protected
and helped in every possible way by
the county authorities. Strict ordi-
nances have been passed protecting
from importation of diseased bees.
A strict quarantine tests all inn
ported colonies to determine wheth
they are sufficiently healthy to be
allowed to settle" in the valley. The
county supervisors have given the
quarantine officer, Mr.. A. F. Wagner
full authority to enforce the bee or
dinance.
Most of the Imperial Valley honey is
made from alfalfa. This makes hons
CT a delicate amber tint and delicious
flavor As there are now about 100000
acres of alfalfa in the valley and the
area is rapidly increasing, there Is
TO danger Of the bee industry being
over worked.
The certainty of success for one whC
understands the business makes the
bee industry of the valley an attract
i've business. Mr.. Wagner says tha'
IN addition to its being the larges

According to acreage under cult
walton Imperial county is by far th'
richest in the United States. In val
ue Of actual products is has caught
up with Los Angeles county and is
exceeded by only two counties, Ian
caster county, Pennsylvania, and Nc
Lean county, Illinois.
According to figures recently com
piled by the Imperial Valleyl Cham

ties and their products are:

From the marvellous progress that
has been made in the past dozen
years it is safe to say that in less
than five years Imperial, the new
county, will surpass every county In
this country in value Of agricultural
products. regardless Of size or loca-
ton. She would do that with the
present acreage because OF the lGten-
siied methods of farming being
adopted. But thousands of additional
acres are being brought under culti-
walton every year.
1t isn't strange that every one
wants to see the land where in a
dozen years such wonders have been
performed.
Nowhere else can such diversified
products be found And every year
it is learned that the soil and climate
of the Valley will do things that had
not been suspected before.
Following are the items that go
to form the splendid total of the
valleys products:
Alfalfa, growing all through the
year and yielding on to two tons
per acre each cutting, $3.S00,000.
