Created in the wilderness of unchecked wind and

and such home region has challenged the atten
ton and the admiration of people throughout tbs
nation.
On the foundation laid by the pioneers but those few
years ago. we have established industries, transformed
wide reach of land into rich farms and built cities which
for endurance and beauty have set new standard fol
municipalities of their proportions.
The pioneer period lived but briefly and as its sue

and homes and providing our families with the luxury
of automobiles And we may plead guilty to this ndlct

tions for 1916 look promising
Improved Conditions
Are Coast Wide.
Further tidings Of coastwide pros
perity were told today by II. II. Dace
Of Los Angeles. Speaking Of the
changes which have taken place since
he was here year ago, Mr. Dace
said:
"The general atmosphere seems to
have undergone a change. Business
appears to have improved vastly and
there seems to be spirit Of opti-
mism.
"The change is coast wide,' he con
tinued My business brings me into
intimate contact with the retail mer-
chant and, while a year ago business
was slack, it has forged ancad now
and seems to be improving steadily.
what do ! attribute the prosper
ity to? Partly to improved conditions
in the East and partly to good crops
in California and the other western
states. The large eastern wholesale
merchants have been the first To feel
the improved condition. A year ar5
they were extending only lit,lc
credit Today the small merchant is
getting the same credit from the
large concerns which has always been
accorded him.
81 have just returned from trip
to Oregon, and conditions there, as
elsewhere ON the coast, seem to be
ON the upgrade. A new concrete high
way hayersing the entire state has
just been completed and building is
again going forward
Business Improving

"Our business has been growing
daily and we are we'll satisfied with

of the proprietors of Hamilton Bros.

1--WE have done the greatest bust
ness in our entire chain Of stores
Imperial Valley press., 1915-12-31

A new era of prosperity is knock
ing at the door of Imperial Valley.
The new prosperity is to be welcomed
judiciously. Hard-headed business
men who have seen booms come and
90 are counseling conservatism.
"Be wise they are saying. "Make
the most Of this opportunity and let
US embrace prosperity in Il manner
which will insure its continual pres
ence. Booms are not a good thing
They induce speculation, and we do
not want to base our standard of val
uations upon speculation.
"We want honest, legitimate val
ues which exist the year round. To
the farmer we say; Farm the land
yourself if you wish to get all that
can be won from it, Till it careful
ly and be conservative. To the bus
mess men we say the same thing-ba
conservative
The East is feeling a great wave
of prosperity. Not all of it has come
from war stocks and the myriad work
ers in the munition factories. The
fertile Middle West has yielded a
golden harvest. Prices are good The
farmers and business men are conf
lent Of prosperity.
That spirit of optimism with its
accompanying capital is sweeping
westward. Depressed conditions did
not come to Imperial Valley at once
and neither are improved conditions
to come at once.
The change is to be gradual. But
the tide has turned. The feeling that
the last milestone of hard times has
been passed is pre-eminent.
Merchants, whose enterprises are
safe barometer upon which to base
forecast, agree that business has in
creased vastly over last year. And
they are firm in their belief that even
better times are to come.
Bank deposits of FL Centre have
showed no falling off. Loans, based
on conservative values, are to be had
more readily now than they have been
for the last 2 years. There is no
more complaint that money is scarce.
Instead, there is the feeling that
Imperial Valley is experiencing the
forerunner of legitimate prosperity
which is based upon the honest en-
deavor of the $4,000 people of the
valley to develop to the utmost de-
Gree the possibilities Of this wonder
fully fertile region.

Business with b. Solomon q Co. this
year shows an increase over last

O. G. Horne, cashier of the Security
Commercial and Savings Bank, says:
eve have more accounts and great
er deposits now than at any time since
the bank came into our hands. The
valley is working out of the condition
through which every new country
passes. The great trouble is that the
ranches do not produce enough in pro
portion to the investment and then
too, there is no staple market here,
There is going to be lot of capital
available and as soon as the ranchers
demonstrate they can raise enough on
the land to pay for the investment

Dunaway Sees
Prosperity Coming.

The settlement of the water prob
lem, the evident determination of the
people in striving for one end, to
bring about better conditions in the
valley, and the endeavors of the farm
ers to win the most possible from the
land, were reasons ascribed this morn
ing by S. w. Dunaway why the com
ing year is to bring increased pros
perity. Business, he said, with him,
this year, compared with 1914, was
about the same.

NJ. o. King, secretary of Varney
Brothers Company, asserted. "De-
pressed conditions naturally affected
business The first half of 1915, but
the last half of this year exceeds by

licye that 1916 is gong to be a good
year But we are counseling conser-
vatism."
