One of the most amazing features
of Imperial valley is the way it ex-
pands. Year by year it has been
reaching out beyond any previous
comprehension Of its possibilities, and
the end is not yet in sight.
Even now the people of Imperial
valley are just beginning to realize
that east of the East Side High Line
canal, under the level of the present
intake, lies one of the finest bodies of
land in all Imperial valley-at least
100000 acres being susceptible to ir-
rigation. sy,tx1sa, sy-.rss
The statement is Being made by
many persons+undoubtedly in entire
good faith, by many, and undoubted
ly with purpose by others-that
there will be no further big additions
to the irrigated area Of the valley.
but this great body of raw land mos
certainly will be reclaimed and ir.
rigated. The people of Imperial val
ley, now coming to realize the pos
sibility of development in that di-
rection, are already insisting that
steps be taken to place this land un-
der irrigation.
The fact is that no large. part of
the valley has been developed with
less effort than will be required by
this great body Of land east of the
East Side High Line canal, and there
has been no equal body of land in
the valley Of better quality, or NOR.
near ready, in it's raw state, for wa
ter.
There are those who seek to i'm
pede the development of this land
that a larger volume of water can
be used in Mexico, on both sides of
the river, before it can be brought
into use in the United States, but
the people of this valley realize the
purpose back Of the opposition and
are insisting, that the work of re-
claiming. this land shall proceed at
once. t.
The Press has in the past quoted
California Development Company Of
ficials to the effect that the limit of
possible irrigation north of the in
ternational line without danger of
occasional water shortage was 500,-
900 acres-an amount which now lies
under the canals.
1t seems, however, that careful
study of the flow of the Colorado
river for ten years shows that only
once in that period, and then for less
than a week, was there too little
water in the river for great deal
more than a half-million acres.
Great as has this valley become, it
has never yet taken from the river
more than small fraction of the
water flowing there at time of low
est discharge of the river, and Meth
er government irrigation experts nor
local authorities who have studied
this matter claim there is the slight
est danger from developing the great
East Side area. y-~
The land in question has been
withdrawn from ntry by the sec
retary of the interior, and several
efforts have been made, to induce Sec
iretary Lane to restore it, to entry
on some. basis that will insure its de
velopment,bsf sa,tib.sos ssst

Fishery Building New Cow Barn.

The writer spent a pleasant half
hour at the ]. E. Elsberry Riverside
Dairy recently. -Four men were milk
ing thirty fine Holstein cows. The
barn was spotlessly clean, the white
painted cement floors giving the place
a spick and span appearance. Mr..
Elsberry disposes of his entire output
at wholesale. Mr.. Elisberry has some
choice cows, one of which he refused
an offer of $400 recently.
He has two large silos filled to the
top with choice feed and the big barn
is full of hay. He is tearing down an
old barn and will build new calf and
COW barn 36x50 feet at once. Mr.: Els
berry expects to milk in the neighbor-
hood of sixty cows next year, the en-
tire product going to the Minot Dairy
Company. Mr.. Elsberry is evidently
making the dairy business pay for be-
sides making large improvements this
year, he is riding in a new car. He
was one of the pioneers in the dairy
business and deserves the success ne
has attained.

BRUTAL MURDER Of
BROTHER CHARGED
WOMAN ARRESTED IN ADAMS
COUNTY-ALLEGE TO HAVE
USED HAMMER, THEN NOTI-
FLED OFFICIALS.

Hettinger, N. D., Oct. 19.-Charg-
ed with the brutal murder of her half
brother, Napoleon B. Smith of North
Lennon, this county, Miss Sarah Cor
man has been locked in the county jail
here. Her preliminary examination
will be held early this week.
Smith, section foreman for the Mil
waukee railroad, was found murder
ed in his home, the victim of blow
on the head with a hammer. The
coroner's jury made the finding that
he had been murdered, but didn't fix
the responsibility.
Circumstantial evidence, it is under
stood, forms the basis for Miss Cor
mans arrest. She, it is claimed, was
the only other person in the house at
or about the time the crime was sup
posed to have taken place, and it was
she who notified the North Lennon
officials of the affair.
The case is attracting great deal
of attention because of it's numerous
sensational features.

Mrs. Young gives US her word that the

IN the North Dakota campaign and
we have no reason to doubt her state

that in some other states, the liquor
interests have contributed to the cam,

it might be possible that such was the
