OUR EFFICIENT IRRIGATION SYSTEM

1t is worthy distinction for Imperial Valley to have
largest acreage under single irrigation system to be
found anywhere in the world The included within the
district is $4,000 acres, under water.
But magnitude is not the only feature for the
district boast Of That alone challenges attention but
the efficiency with which the district served that is to
the cheapness with which the system has been constructed
attracts the favorable consideration of those who give
attention.
The construction costs of the Imperial system to date
amount 000 at the average rate of S2545 an
Compared with other similar projects constructed by
the government to reclaim arid lands this showing is
striking
The average construction costs of the Salt River Yuma
Orand and Newlands projects is S6179 acre, or two
and onehalf times much the cost of the Imperial
system. These government projects.
No doubt part of this wide variance is due to the
naturally favorable conditions existing in this valley,
though there certain features of it, particularly river
control, that make it expensive. But the whole the
lies in the fact that the Imperial system has
been developed under the immediate supervision of the
people who have furnished the Government money
far-etched money and it doesn't usually have the
chasing power of private money.
is good publicity in all this discussion and agitation
of the giant Colorado river project to keep the achievements
the Imperial district before the people What has been
the credit of the whole scheme 1t will tend
stimulate interest and confidence in the development of
the valley.

COMMUNICATED

To The Editor:
Saturdays Press contained comun-
ication from an Ell Centre housewife
asking if an investigation was made as
to the causes of our fires.
1t may be of interest to some of FL
Centro's citizens who do not already
know it, to learn that every fire is
thoroughly investigated SO that similar
fires may be prevented. Fire proven
ton is as important us the fire fight
ing and realizing this the Ell Centro
Volunteer Fire Department has institu-
ted system for fire prevention which
is proving successful, but yet needs the
cooperation of every resident at all
times.
Fire prevention, like charity. should
begin at home. By this is meant that
conditions described by our friend, the
housewife, after she found a lc.,.'ng
oil can near some old papers and clothes
in her own home, should be changed
Immediately. Everyone knows the
great danger from rubbish, leaking oil
cans and neglected stoves, but Oft en-
fails to see the relation between a fire
hazard and actual conditions on his
own premises until after the fire oc-
ours.
One phase of our work in fire pre-
vention is the investigation of electric
fuses and the removal of pennies or
other metal from behind blown out fuse
llugs. Within the last three months
we have collected over 100 pennies from
behind fuse plugs. A fuse plug is de.
signed to protect the interior wiring,
APPLIANCES, and the building itself from
damage or fire in case of a short cir
cult or electrical trouble. With pennies
behind the fuses absolutely no protcc-
ton is afforded to the building or peo-
pie using clcctrict lights and appli-
ances. A state law requires that proper
fuses be maintained and if people real
lied the danger to themselves and their
property when pennies are used they
certainly would thank instead of crit
icizc us, as they sometimes do, for re-
moving the pennies.
I'll Centre holds high place in the
list of cities pushing and practicing
fire prevention and with the cO-opcra-
tiOn of everyone here, that position can
be maintained. Fewer fires and less
loss will be the reward.
