of law.
Numerous federal and state author
tiles were produced by Attorney Sey-
mour in comprehe argument.
In rendering his decision, Judge
Cole held that the ordinance in ques
ton was institutional, and, fur
thermore, that the same could in no
sense be construed as a penal meas
ure; that there Was-no allegation of
fraud, and that the relation existing
between Imperial Water Company No.
and the twenty Mexicans was con-
tractural one only, in which the Mex
leans violated their trust. Also that
the only matter the water company
had in the way of remedy was to
file civil action against those con-
cerned for an alleged breach of trust.
The effect of the decision abolishes
County Ordinance No. SO. In the fu-
ture any party advancing money to
Mexicans or other laborers personally
for labor in the valley simply does so
at his own risk, as he will have no
penal remedy at law to protect him
self.
Mexican Consul Paredes was in
court during the proceedings today.
District Attorney Nichols and AS
sistant District Attorney Simon rep
resented the people in the matter.

average Of the third cutting of
alfalfa is II tons per acre.
As q result of the large acreage
in gardens this year the question
of taking care of the surplus pro-
ducts as a conservation measure
has awakened almost universal
interest in canning and it is safe
to say that never in the history
of the State has canning, presery-
ing, etc., been done in such a
large scale. The question of stor.
ing and caring for the root crops
is also being given especial atten.
tion. Gaiden conditions are Civ.

There are fewer hogs and sheep
on hand than is customary. About
two years ago the turkey output
was greatly decreased by black

The crop reporting season fol-
1917 is drawing to close and
while it is too early to get final
estimates on actual yields, the
conditions of crops are as whole
gratifying. The unusual condi'
tons this year encouraging larg-
er production in crops of all kind
will undoubtedly bring in larger
returns.
The central and eastern part OF
the State have been suffering
from a drought during the month
of August which has to quite an
extent damaged crops, especially
tobacco and pastures, but this
drought was broken the latter
part of the month and the outlook
is much more favorable now.
Pastures are improved and corn
crop is looking much better. The
western part of the State has had
much more seasonable weather
and the outlook there is for an
exceptionally large corn crop.
Last months report showed
the corn crop bid fair to be a
:, bumper" one, but with the
drought conditions prevailing in
such large area, the outlook
for this crop has decreased some.
The averages by districts on corn
run from 20 per cent to 120 per
cent. But taken as a whole, con-
dition of corn is 90 per cent State
average.
The Burley growing district
has been materially affected by
the drought conditions and Bur
Icy tobacco condition is gwen a.
70 per cent while the condition
of Dark tobacco is gwen at "a
per cent.
Condition of hemp is SO per
cent, while COW peas show at 81
per cent and soy beans at 80 per
cent. The estimated yield of
Irish potatoes as compared with
an average years output is 9G
per cent. condition of the late
potato crop is good. Sweet pota-
to condition is 81 per cent.
The hay crop is short. Recent
rains have greatly improved pas
ture conditions which were given
at So per cent. In some localities
the pastures are reported as burnt
up.

The Government has appealed
to the women of this country to
wear old style garments in order
TO release neededlator. The APP
peal says:
"Wear the clothes you have, so
man power now engaged on fem
mime fads and fripperies may be
released. Buy at reasonable pri.
ces, regardless of style. Don't
refuse TO buy a gown because
there's too much or too little ma
terial in it. Let us make use of
what we have. Allow the unen
lightened men to find fault with
you. Do not draw on the labor
market to create useless things !;
1t is poor political economy and
poor patriotism"
All Of the above is sound doc
trine, but why should mother be
admonished to cut out her fads
and fripperies and father not be
asked to leave off his useless to.
bacco; and why should she be
asked to drop her styles and the
opportunity overlooked to ask
men to quit drink? Spending
money for useless things is bad,
but spendin money for destruc-
tive things is ten times worse.
