WAREHOUSES; FOR
GRAIN NEEOED|N
IMPERIAL VALLEY

Many of the valleys grain growers
are at present agitating the building
of a series of grain warehouses and
elevators in those sections where
grain is grown the heavies+.
1t has been said On good authority
that the initial cost Of erecting al
adequate elevator and warehouse in
the vicinity of Ell Centre would be
approximately 100000. On the face
of things this sum would ordinarily
appear to be huge investment for
growers Of the valley to put into a
structure. !. not knowing what position
the people in Los Angeles would be
in as regards terminal facilities.
The argument is further advanced
that there are one or two terminal ele-
vators there, but that shipping all the
grain that is grown in the valley tC
one or two terminals would SO clincl1
the market on the valley product that
but few buyers would have any ac-
cess whatever to it.
1t is generally known that practic-
ally all of the grain grown here is
sent to the coast for chicken feed
while the barley output is sent east
for export.
The big item in favor of erecting
warehouses throughout the valley is
that of sackage, which at present re-
solves itself into, matter of paying
about 25 cents sack On barley as a
sort Of duty to the British and Ameri-
can governments, because of the jute
which goes into the manufacture of
sacks.
Bulk grains would be cheaper to
handle, the only question arising being
the marketing limitations consequent
upon sending the output to Los An
geles, where terminal facilities are at
present limited as before mentioned.

MO. King has filed his name with

election to take place at the regular
city election in April. He will succeed
Charles Berkman. 1t is probable that
Mr.. King will have no opposition.
Other candidates for the city coun-

J. L. Travers have filed their names
with the city clerk.
Whether the three last named will
have a clear field remains to be seen
as there is some talk of an opposition

has developed along this line, however.

ployer with attempting criminal as
sault against his l9-year-old wife, a
bride Of eight months. The charges
were sworn out before Justice of the
Peace Husten Smith of Imperial, and
Benedict was accompanied to the
sheriff's office by Deputy Parish.
According to the story told by Allen
and his wife, who soon expects to be
a mother, they were unable to secure
a house upon arriving in Imperial
some wees ago and Benedict kindly
offered them the use of his apartment
until they could find permanent To-
cation. They accepted, Benedict NOV
ing his belongings into the rear room.
Within few days he began making
advances toward the wife and on a
number of occasions he failed to APP
pear at the garage until late in the
forenoon. The husband became sus-
picious and yesterday returned to the
apartment. On entering the room he
found Benedict attacking his wife.
The accused man denies the charges
stating that Mrs. Allen asked him to
assist her with the electric vibrator
which he remained to do. He alleges
that she approached him a number
of different times.
The case will come before Justice
Mayteld IN the near future.
