New d~eVeIopement in Imperial Val
ley IN the way of increased capitajI
facilities, loan extensions, more time
on mortgages to mortgages by the
various mortgage and loan companie,
mas set the valley residents, cSppciaI-I
~ the farmer and rancher, on a FINN
baSIS Of operation that spells success.

perhaps take a loss ON the MORTGAGE
by the sale Of the farm and stock.
with business leaders feeling tina
this IS practically assured to farm

Jeet IS looming that goes hand il
hand with the new plan. This is til,
liberalization of the soil of the val
ley. A monster reconstruction plan
for the soil Of the valley is under
way, which in many instances ha
admittedly been allowed to run down
through the ignorance of the farmer
of fertilizing values and the transient
farmer specializing in perishable crops
and caring nothing for the land Other
than to make his little pile of money
and get out.
Systemized rotation of crops and
the growing of legumes and cover
crops, along with small farmers and
intense cultivation, is now planned
to bring the production Of the vial
ley to unheardAof proportions and
at the same time keep the lard fer
tile.
In this connection one especially
interesting feature was brought out
at a recent meeting of the assoc
ated chambers of the valley. 1t was
stated that of the thirty-fivc GAN
lsafope growers on a big scale in
the valley, seven received checks of
profit and of these seven only tvs
received checks making their profit
off their work worth while and that
1t had been discovered that these sam,
two mer were the only two out of
the thlrty-tive who had adopted The
g, system of fertilization by the grow
ING OF Iegume cover crops.
The adoption of the contrasting as.
Soclation in connection with the ad
mission that dairying is the funda
mental Industry in the valley is con
sidered an important event in tn,
, history of the land. Already 1875,
COWS have been entered in the as
ISOLATION and it is expected that tn,
next month will see the number rails
