Cotton Crop Here to
Remain One of Best
of Valley Producers

It is n generally accepted fact that
/ Imperial Valley viii continue to pro-
ducc cotton as an annual crop. The
disaster of 1920 caused something of
diScouragement for the time being but
that is forgotten. The Imperial Val
ley farmer did not have his eggs all
in.oBe basket as was the ease in some
sections of the south. The cotton sit.
Hation is better understood now and
this season, though the WELD has been
disappointing TO many planters, the
price is much better than last season
and more than twice as high as ii was
10 years ago.
The crop shortage and lis causes has
engaged the attention of growers, Farm
Bureau, extension service of the uni
versify, horticultural commissioner.
bankers and merchants. That the diff
ficulty will be traced to itsesouree is
certain, whether it be with the land,
with the unusually hot weather of late
summer, faulty irrigation or any other
cause.
With it certainty that cotton viii
be produced throughout the years to
come, something of the CONSERVATION

Story of Moth

Here is the story.
"A Harvard professor entertained
the hope of advantageously crossing
the creature with the silk worm While
working one day in his labratory, he
allowed his one specimen to be blown
out of the window. He thought moth
ing of the matter beyond the loss of a
little insect. In few years the fruit
growers .of Massachusetts, complained
to the government of the destruction
of, their orchards. An investigation dis
closed the fact that the havoc was be-
ing wrought by the Egyptian moth.
Three hundred and fifty square miles
have been devastated and $4,000, 900
have been spent in fighting the evil
that began with the earelessness of
college professor.
And even little start of the boil
weevil in Imperila Valley may prove
equally disasterous to a great money
making crop. However, with so many
agencies n work to protect the valley
from such disaster, it is not probable
that boil weevil or any other insect
enemy will be permitted to enter this
section # it is possible TO keep it out.
