properly celebrate the Fourth, lawn
party picnic was organized by Mrs.
S. G. Dolman for that occasion, The
table was laid on the Dyer lawn, and
what was not there in the way of nice
cooling, refreshing drinks, cold salads,
olives in various disguises, ice cream,
cts, you could easily tabulate on the
back of Thrift stamp and then have
room for the Lords prayer.
Everybody had a delightful time. A
knitting competition had been arrang-
ed between the ex-champion of Boyd
Heights, Mr.. o. l.. Hubbard, and the
present champion, Mr.. John Haviland,
but owing to some hitch this part of
the program was not carried out. Mr.:
Hubbard, however, kindly volunteered
to render sentimental ballad. In the
great joy and excitement caused by
this generous offer, some of the guests
feverishly grabbed some sandwiches
and disappeared.
Those present were: Mr.. and Mrs.
Barney Haffner, Mr.. and Mrs. o. L.
Hubbard, Mr%a Mrs. Dyer, Mr.. and
Mrs. Richards, Mr.. and Mrs. S. G..

IN FAIRNESS TO THE FARMER

In 1916 only 14,000 farmers re- ported taxable incomes, or about one cut of 400 land owners made S2000 or over their income.
 One doctor out of IA and one law yer out of five reported and paid an income tax under the same lava poor showing for farmers.
 Everyone knows that a farmer with net income of $2000 to S40O0 is much better off than city man with the same income.
 He pays nc house rent which in cities amounts to one-fifth of a mans income, and makes over half his liv- ing with no cash outlay. The farmers $2OOO to s40OO net cash income is worth nearly double pro- fessionaI mans and he enjoys more independence.
 State and federal governments con- duct colleges for training the farmer and state and nation make laws for his benefit.
 There is no more unjust proposi- ton than that of the Non-Partisan league to take over large private en- terprises to benefit the farming class by increasing taxes on all the rest of the people.
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-11-15
FUTURE OF WOOL INDUSTRY

The sheep and wool industry are vital to the life of the nation from the standpoint of food and clothing.
 After-war conditions are going to place a hard strain on this joint in dustry and stability of prices are very important.
 The normal clip of wool in our country is from 2SO,0OO,OOO to 3O0,- OOO,O0O pounds year, and we i'm port as much more.
 There has been some accumulation of foreign wools on account of sus- pended trade with the Central powers and lack of shipping.
 The great duty before the people of cur country is to hold and enlarge flocks and supply more wool and nut ton for the market.
 We should pjroduce 400, O,000.000 pounds year and the industry should be on the up grade instead of declin- ing in production.
 The government should stabilize prices for at least two years and con- tinue the present warehousing and commission system of handling.

That Section Four of Ordinance Number Fifty-eight, relative to the regulation of travel and traffic upon the public streets, be and the same is hereby amended to read as follows:
 Section Four: It shall be unlawful for any person to leave hitched, or to cause or permit to be left hitched any animal, or to leave standing, or to cause to permit to be left standing any vehicle upon any portion of the streets known as Chase Creek and the East Side, between the East end o: said Chase Creek and the West side of the lot on which is located the Roman Catholic Church building on said Chase Creek or between the North side of the lot on said East Side on which is located the building known as the Eagle Restaurant, and the South Side of the lot on which is located the Chinese Joss House on said East Side, for a period of time longer than ten minutes.
 Provided, however, that this provis- ion shall not apply to any vehicle stopped for the purpose of being load ed or unloaded while actually being so loaded or unloaded, and further provided that this provision shall not apply to the parking of vehicles at

One Ethiopian has changed his color and one leopard has changed his spots, and the unexpected miracle has happened.
 When the nation is steaming in ire collar for man-power and the states are sweating blood for taxes, an official resigns.
 Building inspector Fred Harrison, of Sacramento, resigns his job and says any cheap deputy can do the work as there is nothing to do.
 If his example were followed thousands of men and women would be doing something else tomorrow ali over our country and quit drawing unearned money.
 In California a few years ago the number of state employees was about 900, and today by expanding state functions it has reached 5000.
 The same conditions are to be found in every state in the west, in many counties and cities, and the evil grows at each legislative session. But one has been conscience shit ten, has reformed, has confessed, ha. owned up that he was a supernumer ary. Let us hope.

BOARD TO
REPRESENT ALL CO

The Imperial county priority com
mission, to be appointed in accordance
with the instructions of the federal
government to pass on all building op-
erations in the Valley, will be named
within "a hours. The delay in an
nouncing the appointments has been
occasioed by the failure of Governor
Stephens to appoint a successor to the
late Galen Nichols as chairman OF
the County Council of Defense.
Up to late hour this afternoon the
consent of the governor to the NAM
ing of District Attorney Simon OF the
chieftaincy of the defense organiza-
ton had been withheld, but it was
thought this purely formal matter
would be settled within few hours.
1t is the plan of District Attorney
Simon to give the three principal cit
les of the coutny representation on the
board. Calexico will have one men,
ber, FL Centre another and Imperial
the third. The working methods of
the board will depend on the instruc-
tions from the State Council of De-
fense.
The province of the board is to sane
tion only those building operations
that are essential to the winning OF
the war or which are necessary to the
. commercial life of this section.
