I've told my neighbors-I've told 'em

A TRIBUTE

Died May the 9Th, 1921, and laid to
rest in the arms Of Jesus in Oak
Grove church yard. He is missed by
his mother and father and all who
knew him, we mourn his death and
hate to give him up but God knows
best. There is a vacancy at his home
which never can be filled, a voice that
is still which cannot be heard any
more, he only lived to be nine months
old. We miss him on every side, it
was hard to see him put away, but
the death angels visits every home
and he has paid the dept which all
of us must pay some day, he is now
resting in heaven, hope we will meet
him, may God bless his parents.
There is no pain in that fair land,
Life JOY and peace
Go hand i'm hand,
We know that you are waiting there
to welcome each
Dear one there.

st. Peter sat quiet and strokcd his
staff,
But in spite of his Office he had to
laugh;
Then said, with fiery gleam in his

"Who's tending this gate, Maggie, you

Then he arose in his stature tall,
And pressed a button upon the wall,
And said to the imp who answered the
bell:

Slowly Jiggs turned, by habit bent,
TO follow wherever Maggie went.

He raised his hand and scratched his
crown;
Then, seeming different thought to
take,
Slowly, half to himself, he spakc.
Thirty years with that woman there,
No wonder the man hasn't any hair.
Swearing is wicked, smoking's not
good
He smoked and swore-I should think
he would.
"rhirty years with that tongue so
sharp
Ho! Angel Gabriel! give him harp,
A jewelcd harp with golden string
Good sir, pass in where the angels
And, Gabriel, give him a seat alone,
One with cushion, up near the
throne.
Call up some angels to play their best;
For JiggS has surely earned rest.
See that on finest ambrosia he feeds;
Hes had about all the hell he needs;
1t isn't just hardly the thing to do;
TO roast him on earth and in the flu
turc too"
They gave him a harp with golden
strings,
A glittering robe and pair Of wings;
And Jiggs, looking down from his
high level,
Thought of Maggie and felt sorry
for-the devil.

A concerted drive for Sunday blue

Church members of all creeds and

dollar propaganda against our Chris

The blue law question was thrown

To BETTER
MARKET
Alfalfa Growers of Valley
Getting Together to Inn
prove Local Conditions
and Make Higher Grade
Hay.

Mr. A. Gregory, of Redlands, who
was one of the speakers at the last
Chamber of Commerce luncheon, il u
large grower of alfalfa hay ana has
become an authority on its production
and marketing.
Mr.. Gregory is in the valley at the
request of j. NJ. Hale, large alfalfa
grower, for the purpose of organizing
the growers of the valley into an asso-
citation as an auxiliary of the leor-
ganized state growers association
His object is to bring through the or
ganization the stabilization Of the !ocal
market and to perfect bette: market
ing conditions, as we'll as secure fhe
best results in production.
The reorganization of the Califor-
MIA Alfalfa Growers association has
been done after the plan of the citrus
exchange, and the walnut growers as
sociation, which through the merit Of
those respective organizations during
the past year, have enabled the pro-
ducers to realize a living profit on il
products.
The plan of organization is as fol-
lows: Each community is organized
as one unit; the several units make
up one district with central head
quarters composed of directors who
elect a president and other necessary
officials for carrying on of the work
! of the organization. Above the dis
/ trlcts is the state association which
is composed of one director from each
district association. Both the district
and the California Alfalfa Growers
association are Incorporated
According to the plan of capitaliza-
ton each association grower will sub
scribe $40 per acre to u capital fund,
the $40 to be paid at the rate of 81
per ton when the hay is sold. This is
very practical and e~sy way for
the members to subscribe their proper
tionate share of capital funds.
The plan is not to see how much hay
can be shipped out of the valley, but
to market as much as possible hare,
after which the surplus will be mar
keted through the California Alfalfa
Growers association.
The organization of the local assO-
citation to cooperate with the state as
sociation. stated Mr.. Gregory, is ycly
similar to the operations of the rlu-
tual water companies and the district
company. Mr.. Gregory is very much
enthused over the success of the plan
as worked out so far, and the prise OF
alfalfa hay in some cases has oeel
boosted from $l4 to $40 per ton
Valley growers, states Mr.. Gregory,
are under the impression that alfalfa
can not be grown here at nVing
profit because of the high price of
water. Mr.. Gregory is u successful
alfalfa grower, and he states that
since being in the valley he has point
ed out to the farmers that wra the
cost of water as it is alfalfa can ne
grown here at cost of Sc per aCtt,
including all the water assessment,
and with an annual cutting of six tons
this would means cost of 81 per ton
