The work on the new Calipatria
railroad is now being rushed and the
completion of the first branch has
been promised by spring so that the
farmers along the line will be able
to ship their crops out over it and
this will mean that all of these fine
farms lands will be materially in
creased in value.
And those who buy this land now
at the present low prices are going
to profit handsomely, so if you are
thinking of buying farm here is
your big opportunity to get in on
some Of the best land in the valley
with the best of water and transpor-
tation facilities along with some of
the wisest and most successful farm
ers in the Valley.
Not only can you buy this land at
very low prices, but you can arrange
very easy terms that should enable
you to get the land ready and in
crop, thus making the land pay for
itself from the crops produced.
Many people are taking advantage
of this offer and the land is going
fast. Do not delay on this if you
want to get in at the present low
prices, but get in touch at once with
Mr.. H. H. Clark of Calipatria, who
is the general manager for the I'M
perial Valley Farm Lands Associa-

LOUISE LOVELY ~
'@THE GILDED SPIDER"

"The Gilded Spider"-While cruis.
ing on his yacht in the Mediterranean
Cyrus Kirkham, dissolute American
millionaire, sees a dancing girl whom
he covets, kidnaps and take on board
his yacht. To escape his unwelcome
attentions the girl jumps overheard
and is drowned.
Her husband determines to be
avenged and with his baby daughter
and his mother comes to America.
Giovanni is a molder of miniature
cheap statuettes and as he passes
through the streets selling his wares
he keeps constant lookout for Kirk
ham. He finally locates him at his
home.
Meanwhile Elisa has been enticed
by trickery to Kirkham's house, where
a party given by Kirkham to his dis
solute companions is going on. Gio-
vanni arrives at the Kirkham home
during the progress of this party.
When Kirkham beholds Giovanni the
shock of fright so affects his heart
that he drops dead.
Giovanni now wildly aroused for
further vengeance, dashes upstairs to
where the party is being held on the
gaily lighted roof. Here Giovanni
beholds his daughter dancing, and
the vivid recollections of her moth
er's tragic death quite unbalances his
mind, and before he can be prevent
ed, Giovanni jumps from the roof and
IS killed. These two sudden deaths
clear the way for happy ending to
the story.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD, TAKE Salts
Says Backache Is Sign You Have
Been Eeating Too Much
Meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid, which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the
blood, and they become sort of par
alyzed and cloggy. When your kid
neys get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels removing all the body's urin-
Gus waste, else you have backache,
sick headache, dizzy spells your
stomach sours, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft
en- get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable ply
sician at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad
Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is

ANENT THE MOTION
PICTURES TO BE SHOWN
TONIGHT
All-Comedy Night at Palace.

Douglas Fairbanks, at the Palace
theatre tonight in Manhattan Mad
ness" his greatest comedy drama.
Manhattan Madness" contains all
the features that have made all the
Fairbanks pictures the great popular
successes they have been.
If someone has liked the Fairbanks
features for their continuous and eff
fervest action, Manhattan Madness"
is a ceaseless revelation of activity.
If Fairbanks athletic stunts have
been the attraction, here they are in
greater abundance and more start
ling variety than ever before. If it
is Fairbanks ability as an actor that
has been the attraction, Manhattan
Madness" will be more than satisfac-
tory. 1t contains splendid opportu-
rites for good acting, and Fairbanks
takes every advantage of them. If
it is a good story the film fan likes,
here is one that will certainly please
him. A mystery picture is this one,
and it holds its suspense to the very
end, when it ends with final thrill
that it would be hard to beat.

Horticultural Commissioner F. w.
Waite makes an interesting report
for January, calling attention to the
necessity of selecting proper seeds
for various paintings. The report
is well worth reading by those who
contemplate setting out trees and
vines. The report is as follows:
To the Honorable Board of Super
visors, Imperial County California.
Gentlemen: This being the season
for planting trees and shrubs, wish
to call attention of parties contem,
plating ordering plants from Florida
or other Southern states. There is q
strict quarantine on all plants ant
fruits from Florida, due to the cit
rus white fly and citrus canker. Since
the year 1915 there has been $1,480,
900 spent in attempting the contro
of the citrus canker. Many millions
of trees have been destroyed and thu

destruction. Let US cooperate t.

Again l wish to call attention to
the quarantine regulation which pro-
hibits any grape vines or cuttings to
come into this county from north Of
Tehachapi mountains.
In regard to the weed, Creeping
Malva, I would suggest that your
honorable board request that the hor'
ticultural commissioner declare the
same a noxious weed and take steps
to eradicate it. A series of expert
ments should be made to determine
the most practical method of destroy
ing this weed.
The state commissioner has sent
out a call for the commissioners tt
meet at Riverside on the 9th to dis
cuss horticultural laws and insect
control.
Under the present cantaloupe sec
ton of the Standardization Act th'
salary of inspectors is fixed at $3.5!
per day, which makes it impossible
to obtain qualified inspectors, as the!

Horticultural Commissioner
TellsRegarding Time to Plant

keep out this canker by not ordering
any plants from any of the South
ern States which might get into this
state without being detected bys the
quarantine officers.
The season for importing orange
seed into California for propagation
purposes will soon be at hand. Flor
ida is the one source of supply for
sour orange seed at this time. The
quarantine provisions require that
shippers must obtain certificates from
the plant commissioner of Florida for
each shipment and this certificate
must be produced by the consignee
before the seed will be released. Ship
ment of orange seed from Florida
must be consigned as described in
Quarantine Order No. 2 and must
conform to all the provisions Of the
order.
This is the best month to plant
roses. In fact, all deciduous planting
should be done during the next three

dale district, in which the factory
workers and many foreigners and
negroes live, has been much comment
ed on by the local committee. AL
though none of the subscriptions were
very large, the people in this section
have contributed to the fund almost
without exception, and when money
was not given, it was because there
was none in the house.
Haas Issues Statement
In order to quiet rumors regarding
the distribution of the money raised
in the canvass here, Edgar M. Haas,
central committeeman, today issued
the following statement:
For the information of those who
have and will contribute to the Red
Cross fund, all money and all pledges
of all kinds are forwarded to Wash
ington to the Secretary OF the Treas
urer and not one dollar of the money
is deducted here from this amount.
1.-THE necessary expenses OF the cam
paign which has been outlined by the
Washington committee will be paid
out of the general fund forwarded
from Washington. There are no sal
aries being paid to anyone except a
few stenographers who are doing
some Of the clerical work.
Every man and woman is donating
his or her time. A great many sacri-
fees have been made by the men and
women who are making the solicita-
lions and in addition to contribution
of their time and energy they have
been the most liberal contributors to
the Red Cross fund"
Contributors are requested to place
