VALLEY BANKER In
FAVOR OF THORO
SOIL UPBUILDlNC
J. K. Hermon Points Out
Proper Use of Water
Stock Money

j. X. Hermon, president of the
Security Commercial and Savings bank
of FL Centre, when asked yesterday
by a representative of the Imperial
Valley Press, what he considered
should be done with the money realiz
cd from the consolidation of the water
companies with the Irrigation District
said:
"Thcrc is nothing new and startling
that can be done. The money must be
used in Il way based on sound economic
policies. OF course, as yet, there is
no method of knowing just how much
money will be left in the hands of the
farmers. Whether any individual
farmer enjoys the use of his share Of
the money or whether it will be ap-
piled in reducing his Indebtedness will
depend in a great measure upon how
he has kept up his farm and how he
stands in the community. In other
words, it will be a question of whether
he will use the money, if turned over
to him, III the upbuilding of his pro
perty or not, and each case will b,
decided separately upon its merits. -
Several letters shown to the Press
representatives by Mr. Hermon, from
outside mortgage holders, evinced
= willingness to be guided i'm
their decision in each case by
the advice of Mr.. Hermon <
bank and Mr.. Hermon stated that iii
majority of instances this was so.
In other words, the question of just
what will be done with this money will
be, in a great measure, in the hands
of local financial institutions.
Mr. Hermon said "tnat in his opin-
ion, this money must be used in the
planting of permanent and semi-per-
manent crops, such as grapes, grape
fruit, asparagus and alfalfa, in re
touching the soil and in placing bet
ter improvements such as homes, barns
etc, on the land" and he stated en-

Calipatria Coming
for Test With Team
of City on Sunday

III Centre will play its second game
in the Imperial Valley Winter Leag ir
when the team crosses bats with the
Calipatria Sheiks on the local ban
grounds Sunday afternoon at 2:3O. The
Calipatria nine is playing good ball I'll
through the past few weeks, and is cut
to make the boys from the county sea,
look foolish. Though Calipatria is nu
mericallv small, the rooters there are
mighty loval and follow their team
around each Sunday, 50 that a good
delegation is expected to be present
when the game starts Sunday.
Ell Centre is handicapped at present
bv the sickness of their star pitcher,
H:Paddv'' Livingstone. Last Sunday
it was necessary to put . Bill Tackett
in the box, and though ''Bill' can
plav the outfield, make good showing
on the bases, or go behind the bat if
necessary, he has never claimed to be
a pitcher. At that he got by in the
game with Calexico last Sunday, and
II was no fault of his that the team did
not win. It is doubtful if Livingstone
will be able to pitch Sunday and Ray
Ellis is gum -shoeing around through the
highways and byways to sign up some
body to take his place, and he says hr
has his eyes on a boy that can go to
the mat with " Red" Faber and beat
him hands down.
The "Josh'' Billings matter is still
in "status quo, as the dictionary
says. ".Josh'' is now a regular mem
Der of the community, being employed
by the Holton Power Company, and is
waiting for the approval of Judge
Landis before donning the mask and
pad for Ell Centre. That permission to
play will be. granted, is not doubted,
but it must come through the proper
channels and this of course takes time,
the Judge having to make an invcsti
cation to satisfy himself that Josh =
is not going to be gallivamting with Il
pack of outlaws = which would spoil
him for work with the "Browns next

Hallawell Brothers
Prosperity Based
on Honest Service

Once again the old adage that,
"'honesty is the best policy is PROV
ed true Ski years ago the Hallowell
Brothers opened their first service
station in. the Imperial Valley and
from that day until this they have al
wavs given only one kind of service
the best-until today the name of
Hallowell is known over the valley rs
being Synonymous with honesty and
square dealing.
They now operate three flourishing
service stations located in FL Centre,
Imperial and CaleXico, which consti-
tute chain of continuous service.
These service stations are noted for
their courtesy, dispatch and the quality
not only of the supplies they sell, but
also for the quality of the service sup
piled.
You will find each of these stations
stocked with complete line of Hood
and Racine tires and fully equipped to
take care of vucanizing jobs, both of
tubes and castings, at short notice. They
have given special attention to the pro-
per method of lubricating and greas-
ING of ears, including Alemite service.
until they are now able to give Il
greasing or lubricating job all the spe-
cial skill needed to make it speedy
and thorough. No car ever leaves one
of their stations after a job half lubri-
Gated. They believe a job worth do
ing at all is worth doing well.
The Hallowell Brothers have stood
by their guns in hard times as well as
in prosperity and have always given
the same class of cheerful, efficient
service, no matter how things went
and they are now feeling theSeffect of
the upward trend of conditions through
out the Imperial Valley and are enjoy
ing that added prosperity to which
they are entitled.
They make no boast of superiority
but let their patrons judge for them.
selves, believing that the quality of
their merchandise and their reputation
for good service speaks louder than
anything they could say and if being

Two More Nights

g.. Last night at the Palace thcater the
amusing antics of Wesley Barry in
=" Rags to Riches made the adult aud
ience forget their usual decorum and
laugh aloud in their enjoyment of the

characters, and thrills which were pro

made an entertaining and interesting
motion picture.
The Youngsters who persuaded their
parents to let them attend last night
were as amusing as the play, One boy
was a replica of the freckled faced lit

were good to hear. Grown-ups who sat
near him received double the amount of
enjoyment for their money,

A Sure Death
To Dandelion
Discovered

The dandelion is vulnerable!
The little yellow weed flower which
greedy gobbles up the strands Of grass
on lawns has been put on the run
and by the university of Wisconsin,,
horticultural experts.
"Kill 'em with a spray Of iron sui
phate."
This advice is infallible if proper
precautions are taken, A. L. Stone Of
the Wisconsin college of agriculture
claims. This method of Staying the
pestiferous dandelion has been tested
over period of several years.
Fertilization and better seed appli-
cations, together with the laborious
method of Knitting" the dandelions
but by hand, are not to be disregarded.
Stone says, but are best used as aux
ilaries to the spray process.
Iron sulphate, the basis Of the spray,
is commonly, known as green vitrol
or operas and may be procured at
any drug store for about cents a
pound. The spray can be made cheap
ly at home.
Here's the formula: Dissolve two
pounds Of iron sulplate to each
gallon Of water, and apply with hand
or barrel spray, according to the size
of the lawn.
One gallon Of the solution will
spray $50 feet Of lawn. Three appli-
cations, one early in May, one month
later, and the third just before the
frost comes, will kill the hardest crop
of dandelions.
Care must be taken, however, not
to spray just after moving the lawn
Rain within "a hours after spraying
will render the application useless,
also, as the chemical is washed off.
And, "don't get the stuff on cloth
ing, metal, stone or the sidewalk. It
makes stains"
The spraying process need not be
repeated more than once every three
years, Stone says.
