FARM ERS WILL
NOT PLANT TOO
MUCH ALFALFA
Advance Reports Indicate That
Valley Acreage VIII Not Run
AbOUe 1900.

There will be no running wild to al
falfa in the valley this year as was
indicated by reports early in the sea-
son, when it was believed that there
would be an enormous acreage seeded
to this valuabl crop.
Farm advisors and shrewd farmers
experienced in the ways of the valley
talked against it and gave hard fact
reasons why an over planting of al
falfa would be a detriment, rather
than a benefit to the community as a
whole, and the farmer seems to have
needed the advice.
The latest information obtainable
and the estimates made by F. w.
Waite, the county horticultural COM
missioner, shows that there will be
planted this year about $4,000 acres
of alfalfa. With the average produc-
tion in the valley as rule this acre
age will produce about $4,000 tons to
the crop, with probably six cuttings to
the season.
When it is considered that this
years acreage is only about one-third
of past seasons planting it will be
seen that the valley alfalfa grower
is going to be very conservative.
Commissioner Waite in his report
to the supervisors also states that the
pure Lone Star cotton seed grown un-
der the supervision of the United
States department of agriculture is
ready for distribution and can be OBJ
tanned on application to his office.
His report also contains the infor-
nation that rodent eradication meas
ures will shortly be made public, and
that in accordance with the law nearly
one car load of lettuce had been
thrown out for misbranding previous
to March 1, up to which time :2100 car
loads had eben inspected and shipped.

ADVANCE SALE
MEANS A. CROWD

That the fight fans of the valley are
kenely interested in the boxing bill
which Promoter Rudy Elder will pre-
sent at the Ell Centre Athletic club
tomorrow night is evidenced by the
fact that the advance sale of seats is
the best of the season.
The fistic card promises that which
the boxing enthusiasts like to see:
fast, peppery, hard fought contests be-
tween evenly matched boys who are
more than willing to step in and ply
their trade.
Young Hoppe of FL Centre will en-
deavor to put the quietus on that wild
Irishman, Jockey O'Rooney of San
Diego. 1t is very likely that O'Rooney
will seriously oppose this plan.
The return match between Kid koh-
Ter of Ell Centre and George LaSalle
should in itself be we'll worth twice
the price of admission. Ask any fan
who saw the two boys perform at
Rudy's arena last Saturday night.
Battling Gus of CaleXico will strive
earnestly to decorate tn canvas with
the bulky form of Jack Spears of
Brawley. Jack says that only two
persons in the ring at the conclusion
of the bout, will hear Referee Elders
decision, and that smiling Gus will
not be member of the party.
Jap Moha of San Diego will mix
with Young Mandot of Calexico, and
Young Buckley and Yeung Leo, FL
Centre boys, will meet in the opening

Y \ EVA ROS
WILL BRING
WEALTH To
VALLEY
Almost Million Vines Will Be
Planted to Thousands of
Acres to Produce in Time
Untold Fortune.

The practical worth of the recent
lecturing and demonstration tour. of
the Imperial Valley by Prof. F. T.
Bioletti, of the University of Califor-
MIA, one Of the most noted viticultur-
lists in the country is beginning to
show.
Witness the following item lifted
from the monthly report of F. w.
Waite, county horticultural commits
sioner, filed with the board of super
visors yesterday:
Goods that were inspected and
passed into the county during the
month of February, 1921:
"Grapevines, 100000; grape cut
tings, $4,000"
The previous month, while Prof.
Bioletti was still in the valley show
ing the tiller of the soil how and what
to do with his idle or unproductive or
Improbable land holdings, 204,606
grapevihes were inspected and passed
into the county.
Prof. Bioletti made an extended and
exhaustive study of soil conditions in
all sections of the valley under cult
walton and he informed the land hold
er that practically of the soil of the
valley is good for grape culture, but
that there was some land that was
not, and he proceeded to show the
rancher just what was good and what
was bad.
He gave a great deal of practical
advice. He made hundreds of practic-
al demonstrations and from planting
to pruning he showed them all how
to do it.
The result is that the rancher is
getting busy setting out vineyards to
take the place of the surplus ground
planted to alfalfa, to cotton and to
crops that have not been profitable be-
cause of differing conditions, and the
year 1921 will show thousands Of
acres planted to vines. The planting
is going on right now as the receipt
of almost a million vines and cuttings
90 to show.
Prof. Bioletti told the rancher and
prospective vineyardist and the latter
has a full realization of the truth of
his statements, that they would not
find the life of the vineyardist royal
road of ease, but that at the end Of
two or three years of real work COM
bined with common sense and practical
knowledge, he would find it a royal
road to wealth.
At the time the prohibition blessing,
or blight, whichever view point you
may take of it, hit the country, the
cry went up from the grape centers OF
California that great industry was
passing out. A dry United States was
sending to wreck and ruin the thou
sands of acres of vineyards in the
state, destroying millions invested in
the wine presses of the great wine
making corporations and confiscating
without return the investment of years
of labor and much more capital.
But whether it was freak market
brought on by conditions growing out
of the world war, or whether necessity
found the way to new markets, the
last year proved to be the most pros
porous one. the vineyardists of Cali
fornia had ever experienced and prices
were received per ton for grapes
never before heard of.
In the valleys of the San Joaquin,
the Santa Clara, the San Benito, in
Solano, and Napa and Sonoma, the
Goddess of Fortune walked hand in
hand with the vineyardist and the
leaves of her kirtle sparkled with dia-
