This is the main question asked of
Ell Centre and Imperial Valley folks
by members of the Ell Centre Cham
ber of Commerce and the Woman's
Ten Thousand Club, both organiza-
tons being actively cooperating with
the Redpath Bureau in an endeavor
to make the big eight days entertain
rlent a success. The Chautaqua,
which will open in a Llg tent on State
street east of the Casa Rey hotel next
Iueseday afternoon, will present a
u ogram of talent such as has never
been collected in Imperial Valley be-
fore.
This afternoon at the "Chautauqua
Special" a cavalcade Of automobiles
containg Ell Centre residents and mu-
s:cians visited Imperial, Brawley and
Holtville to tell the reighbors about
the Chautaqua. J. J King, special
representative of the Redpath Bureau,
is here in charge of the active organ
ization work. Chairman w. G. Con-
ley of the Chautaqua Association has
been active in arranging prizes do
roted by Ell Centre business houses
for the persons bringing in the most
money from the sale of season tick
cts.
Many tickets have been sold already,
according to the reports received at
the office of the Chamber of Com
raerce. The fact that the price of
the season tickets for adults is now
$3.50. but will go to $500 at noon
next Tuesday, the first day of the
Chautauqua, is having strong eff
feet on the advance sale of tickets.
The big tent will seat 1900 persons.
The tent and equipment will arrive
Sunday or Monday, with crew and
the company of talent to appear on
the Chautauqua program next week. A
parade of automobiles carrying the
visitors is planned following the ar

ROAD BUILDING HINTS GIVEN
Military Attaches With Former Pre- mier BaIfour of England, Im-
 part Information.

Some interesting information re- garding military road building was giv- en to the United States when the Eng nsh mission headed by Former Pre- mier Balfour arrived in New York. Military attaches told how the armies of France and Great Britain rebuilt roads in France and Belgium.
 English military engineers recently have made experiments demonstrating that 1t is possible and desirable to build the highest types of road sur faces for the temporary or emergency movement of artillery and supplies. Roads built with asphalt sent from England have been constructed in the rear of the Franco-Belgian front. Roads so improved gave better serv- ice than any type attempted under the swift and heavy movement necessi- tated by the artillery action which precedes infantry attacks. It was observed that motortrucks and gun carriages suffered no injury in move ment over these hastily constructed pavements, while frequent breakdowns were experienced when road building was not attempted.
 Following those experiments mis- sion, including officers of the British and French engineer corps, looked over the pavements in the environs of Paris built in the last three or four years. Among other roads inspected was the asphalt pavement laid on the road to Versailles, which has been carrying heavy military traffic ever since the war started. AS a result of these experiments and investiga- tions it has been decided, wherever possible, to construct similar surfaces for the movement of military traffic in regions where roads have been de stroyed or where they may be made necessary by battle plans.

SOILS AND ROTATIONS FOR SWEET POTATO

Second year-Oats, followed by cowpeas, soy beans or peanuts.
 Third year-Corn, with cowpeas' peanuts, or velvet beans between the rows.
 Manures and Fertilizers.
 Stable manure is an excellent fer tilizer for sweet-potato lands, especial Iy those which are deficient in humus Heavy applications of fresh manure should not be applied shortly before planting sweet potatoes, for the ma. nure will cause excessive growth oi vines at the expense of the roots. II Is very good plan to use the manure on the crop that precedes the swee' potatoes; thus the manure is very thor oughly incorporated with the soil be fore the sweet potatoes are planted
 Commercial fertilizers will produce good crops of sweet potatoes, provld- ed the soil contains sufficient humus The quantity and kind of fertilizer to use will depend upon the fertility of the soil. When sweet potatoes fol low an early crop of Irish potatoes or other early vegetables no fertilizer IS

temporarily, as it soon loses it's strength, and they will return.
 The insect powder must be showered on the plant with the powder gun which comes with the powder, and fresh powder used every time this will kill every bug it touches, but it must touch the bug.
 Jarring the plant or vine will cause the beetles to drop instantly to the ground, and they must be stamped or beaten to death at once, or they will make off rapidly, only to return in an hour or so.
 Their season is July, August and the first half of September, and they are voraeious eaters, soon stripping the plant. In appearance they are long, slim, grayish black, the grown ones be- ing an inch in length.
 They soon ruin clematis, golden glow and many other plants.

IMPROVEMENT OF EGG YIELD
Crushed oyster-SheII Food Should Be Kept Before Laying Hens to Se-
 cure Good Hard Egg.

The department of agriculture, Wash ington, recommends that crushed oys- tershell food be kept before laying hens as a means through which good hard egg is produced. A record kept at the government chicken yard of the amount of oyster shells fed to a laying hen showed that in the year one and three-tenths pound per hen was con sumed at a cost of about 1 cent a hen per year.
 It is also pointed out that the calci- um mineral matter taken in by the young chicken in the feeding of oyster shells may have a tendency to strengthen the frame of the young pull lets and make them stronger and healthier in later life. It is further shown from actual experiment that when beef scraps were fed to hens the average egg yield was 137 eggs per hen a year and when beef scraps were not fed 90 eggs was the average year. ly yield.

Chinas which are considered quite pro- ductive breeds. They lay on an aver age of about 50 eggs a year, and are very likely to increase their egg pro- duction as they grow older.
 The customary way of raising geese is to let them shift for themselves to a great extent, and if they have plen- ty of good grass pasture they do very well. Experience has shown that geese do not do we'll on a ration consisting largely of grain. Grit is an essential in the diet of the goose, but I doubt the adyisability of feeding sour milk to any great extent, as I believe any thing which will force egg production would likely have some detrimental ef- feet upon the fertility of the egg.
 While grit and oyster shells are es- sential, they are not usually provided because geese are not confined like chickens, and pick up enough of such material at most any time of the year.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 Sweet potatoes can be grown on nearly every type of soil. but sand or sandy loam soil will give the best results. The subsoil should be clay, so that the plant food will not easily leach away, but the clay should be of a porous character to afford good drainage. Soils medium in fertility are to be preferred to very rich soils, for the latter will produce a heavy growth of vines at the expense of roots. Good crops may be produced on run down cotton, corn, or tobacco lands if a legurninous crop is planted to increase the humus in the soil. New ly cleared pine land will produce ex- cellent crops of sweet potatoes when properly fertilized.
 Rotations.
 A systematic rotation of crops should be practiced when raising sweet potatoes, for in this way it is possible to check materially the spread of sweet-potato diseases. The continuous cropping of the land with sweet potatoes depletes the humus

BUILDING UP LAYING STRAIN
Poultryman Must Give Much Consider atlon to the Fowls That Are
 to Head the Pens.

In building up laying strain of chickens the poultryman must give a great deal of consideration to the bfrds that are to head the pens. The male birds should be the offspring of fe- males of good laying strains. The male bird has greater influence in strain breeding than the average breeder gives him credit for. and too often strains do not develop to the satisfaction of the breeder because no consideration is given to the egg-nro. oucing qualities of the ancestry Of the male bird used.

CULTURE OF PEANUTS
Boil Seed in Boiling Soap Water
 to RepeI Rodents.
Nuts Should Be Planted in Moist Soil Run Drag Harrow Over Crop If Weeds or Grass Threaten
 Can Be Stored in Barn.

(F,v FI PITCHER DAVIS, Texas Depart
 ment of Agriculture.)
 It takes about one and half peckS of the larger varieties of shelled pea nuts and one peck of the Spanish or one and a quarter bushels os whole pods to plant an acre. Where the whole pods are planted, they should be soaked in water a few hours-not long enough for them to spoil-and nlanted down in the moist soil before heinz permitted to dry. If there Is liability of rodents destroying the seeds. 1t is claimed by some that they can be protected by dissolving five cent bar of laundry soap in boiling water and stirring thoroughly into this a half pint of coal oil and then mix ing this hot preparation with suffi- cient quantity of cool water to soak two bushels of peanuts in the hulls. This preparation should not be used on sheiled peanuts, and 1t is better to poison the rodents before planting rather than seek to repel them in this way. The nuts should be planted in moist ground, but they need be GOV cred to a depth varying from three quarters of an inch in heavy soils to two inches in light sandy soils.
 If the soil shows a tendency to bake or is becoming foul with weeds or grass, drag harrow can be run all over the crop while it Is young or just coming up, being careful, of course, to set the teeth of the harrow so as not to tear the plants out of the ground, or where soil Is loose and loamy and when grass and weeds grow rapidly, the first and even the second blowing may be done by running sweep shal- low and close enough to completely cover up all the grass, weeds and even the peanuts. This operation, If done in dime, will clean the rows by smoth- Ierins the grass and weeds, but the pea

LOOK OUT FOR THE BLACK

 have had plants ruined in a day by the ravages of this most destructive creature. AS soon as one is discov- cred, prepare an infusion of soap and kerosene after the following formula :: Soap, one-half pound and a teacupful of kerosene.
 Shave the soap finely and pour hot water over it. Set it on the stove to become liquid. When melted, bring 1t to boil, and add the kerosene. Stir well until an emulsion results.
 To one part of this emulsion add ten parts of water. Spray the plants all over with the mixture. If this Is used as soon as the first beetle puts in an appearance it will generally prevent others from coming.
 If they do come 1t will soon rout them, if you are persistent in it's use and 1t is applied literally. l.. R.
