Rabbi Goldman to The Star-Mirror.
"Russia will come back. She can not
fail. There are more than 100000
women in Russia who are organized
in what is called the battalion OF

freedom. Russia will recover from
the present unsettled conditions and
will return to the allies and help to
defeat Germany
Mr.. Goldman told of the persecu-
tions of the Jews in Russia in l9OO,
when the persecution was at It's
height. AS a result of these persecu-
tions Mr.. Goldman lost his mother,
father, sister. brother, his wife and
four children. They were nailed to
the walls of building and allowed to
die. He himself was kicked in the
head and face, most of his teeth be-
ing knocked out by the brutal SOL
diers. Millions of the Jews were per-
secuted and those most active in the
work were highly rewarded.

against all nations depressing Israel

FARM ERS PLAN
BIGGER CROPS
COUNTY AGENTS HAVE SECURED
HEARTY COOPERATION OF
MANY LAND OWNERS
10000 WORK TOGETHER
$4,000 FARMS LISTED FOR UNITED
EFFORTS TO INCREASE CROP
PRODUCTION

| PULLMAN, Wash.-More than co.
| 900 farmers on at least $4,000 Wash
ington farms in the last days of March
entered upon the greater production
| campaign led in Washington by the
! United States department of Agricul-
ture and. the State College of Wash
ington acting through the country ag-
ricultural agents in the different coun-
ties and their cooperating agencies.
According to the government plans un-
der which the state college is acting,
the county agriculturist is the leader
of food production work in his own
county. Thirty-eight of these men
are now employed in the SO counties
of Washington.
The opening of spring farming work
in Washington marks the closing days
of the statewide agricultural census
dealing mainly with labor, seed, live
stock. and crop acreage which in re-
cent weeks the county agriculturists
have been conducting in their own
counties preliminary to the opening
of the greater production campaign.
Data and estimates now in hand, which
include the names of most of the lead
ing farmers in each county, together
with their equipment for farming and
land acreage, show over and above the
the 1910 census estimates of $4,000
farms in Washington, no less than 75,-
900 farms at present, and a CORE
spending increase in the number of
people engaged in farming.
The most active help the county ag-
riculturalists have received in ma
king the farm survey in their re-
spective counties have been from the
farmers themselves, working through
such groups of their own as the grang-
&c and farmers unions, cooperative
marketing associations, livestock as
sociations, cow-testing associations,
vegetable growers associations, breed
ers. poultry and hay-growers organ
izations, cooperative creameries, milk
producers associations, and others OF
this kind. In II of the counties con-
tanning county agriculturists, the
above named groups have centralized
their endeavors through county ag-
ricultural council or similar working
group or committee. This county ag-
ricultural council, under the war
production plans of the present spring,
will act with the county agriculturist
in both an advisory and cooperative
way. Their organization, cooperation
and help is sought in every county on
the grounds that they help as can no
other agency in keeping before the
farmers the fact that it is upon them
that rests the success or failure OF
the nations war-production campaign

SAM PORTER NOW IN FULL
CHARGE OF SAN DIEGO HOTEL
.-W.S.S.-

Assuming full! control of the San
Diego hotel at San Diego, Sam S.
Porter, for number of years one
of the co-managers of that well known
hostelry, has gained one of the most
important hotel positions in Califor-
MIA Mr. Porter is well known in all
parts of the Imperial Valley and
practically every one of his acquain-
tances is booster for him.
In taking over full control of the
San Diego hotel, Mr.. Porter has an
nounced that there will be no gem
eral change in the personnel Of the
staff, but that a number of improve
ments are being made in preparation
for the big summer season now be-
ginning A more liberal attitude in
dealing with the public is to take
place.
The fact that this hostelry is ideal
ly located on the city's principal
street, close to the Coronado ferry
and the magnificent Santa Fe station
has made it especially popular with
tourists.
Public attention was focused on the
San Diego hotel at the time of it's
erection several years ago, when it
gained the reputation of having the
largest lobby in the state, consider
ing the size of the structure. 1t is
complete with every modern convent
ence.

COMMUNICATED.
--M.S.S.-

Ell Centre, June 10-Editor lmpe-
rial Valley Press-Dear Sir: The at
tention of the public should be called
to the financing agreement that the
Globe Mills has succeeded in putting
over on the Food Commission in the
matter of the cotton crop.
The commission is supposed to be
the protector of the public from the
wilese of the profiteer, but hook what
they have sanctioned:
The sliding scale is only camou-
Hage, as 80 per cent of the growers
who have to get their financing from
the Globe Mills will borrow at least
500 up opicking, and the picking
will take the other 50 in short order,
so that the 80 per cent of seed which
they vii ltake will be the rule rather
than the exception.
Now. on the basis of $50 per ton
for the seed, and one-half ton of seed
per acre, the grower gives the Mills
SO per acre in seed plus the 10 per
cent for three months average loan,
of S9.621a for the S25, which is at
the rate of $50 per cent for the money
used to produce crop that our gov
ernment needs and is urging farm
ers to plant.
We appreciate that cotton is haz-
ardous loan, but we think the rate at
which this money is loaned is an out
rage on the growers, and the COM
missions representative must have
replaced his brains with clabber for
his discussion.
