new SHOW COMING
FOR COTTON FAIR
BY Special Staff Correspondent

CALEXICO, Oct. 26.-.Ierman Aar-
ons, assistant to Mr.. Rice in staging
the Calexico International Cotton Page
ant, announces that while in Los An
geles, recently he had the good fortune
to secure an added attraction for the
big cotton exposition, in the form of
a showing of the largest and most com
prehensive display of war relies in ex-
iStence. ....t. ...
Schuyler Clark, of Los Angeles and
Hollywood, is the owner of the cOllec-
tion, and, where others have interested
themselves in collections of art, moneys,
stamps and other relies, his bend took
the form of collecting war relics from
the late war.
In the collection are included 2200
pieces which are actually from the war
front in France and Belgium, and which
he has purchased from time to time
from soldiers returned from the front.
Mr.. Clark will, at his own expense,
bring and erect Il display tent 900 feet
by so feet in size, and 90 soldiers who
were in the battle lines will be brought
here by him to act as guards and as
guides, and who will explain details
and historical facts connected with
each article displayed. u-
Queen Contest
Queen candidates are working hard
to earn the honor of being reigning
queen of the cotton pageant. Rivalry
is keen, withal good-natured.
The standing of the candidates at
the close of the day, Tuesday, is as

JUNIOR COLLEGE
FIRST MONTH IS
VERY SUCCESSFUL
Thirty-FOur Now Enrolled
in First College Class of
Imperial Valley

Prof. J. t. House is more than
pleased with the first months work
of the junior college. Things have
moved smoothly from the start, Die
says, with fewer complications than
was anticipated with both the high
school and junior college in the same
buildings. The enrolment has reached
"a and the students have realized the
difference between college work and
high school work as they would were
they attending at any university or
college of the state. ...t...
The enrolment at the high school is
3l7 at this time and will probably
go higher as the term advances. The
rural schools making up the Central
Union High school district, have con
tributed creditable percentage of the
enrolment. OF the 9S receiving diplo-
mas from the eighth grade, a large
number entered for the advanced work
this fan. The principal has mot cam.
pleted the checking and was not able
to give the exact figures. For the
most part, the freshmen are taking
hold of the work nicely.

REPORTS MUST Be
ON Time, ADVISOR
EXPLAINS REASON
Home Department Reports
Are Needed to Show
Progress
BY RAY ELLIS
A ssistant Farm Advisor


There is one way we can show the
ton that the home department is
justified. That is through narrative
and statistical reports. The county
home demonstration agent writes both
reports, but for the statistical one she
is dependent upon the home demon
strator-thc housewife. The latter
sends the project leaders of her center
a complete record of the results of ali
projects undertaken in the home.
The project leaders in turn report to
the chairman of the center, who then
report to the home demonstration agent
also keeping duplicate report on file
with the secretary of the center.
The reports follow certain definite
routes after leaving the farm home:
l. The home demonstrator reports
to center project leader.
2. Center project leader reports to
|center chairman.
3. Center chairman reports to cen
ter secretary and county home demon
stration agent.
4. County home demonstration agent
reports to state home demonstration
leader, college of agriculture, Berkeley.
). State home demonstration leader
reports to federal home demonstration
leader, Washington, ID. c.
Thus we very readily see that, such
a complicated system of reports must
be very definitely scheduled for GER
tain dates. sss

CATTLE GRAZING
in MEXICO FREE
OF IMPORT DUTY
Matlin, S. D. & A Tells
of Fine Feeding Near
Campo and Jacumba

Few people are aware of the thous-
ands Of acres of grazing land in the
mountains between Campo and Jacum-
ba, which are used each year by cattle
owners from Texas, Arizona and New
Mexico, where there is usually a long
season Of drought, according to Charles
i. Matlin, local representative of the
San Diego and Arizona Railway.
During the past summer, approx
mately 5000 head of cattle were ship
ped to the mountains from the arid
sections mentioned above, and most of
these have been taken out, either to
the valley or to San Diego, to be fat
tened for market. Within few days,
nearly IS carloads of new stock will
be shipped the grazing land, where
they will be held for six or eight
months, possibly longer, if necessary.
Much of the grazing land is situ-
ated across the border in Mexico. There
is an import duty of $3.50 per head on
cattle coming into tile United. States
from Mexico, but recently arrange
ments were made to allow United
States cattle to be grazed in Mexico
for n period Of eight months and then
returned to this side of the line with
ont any duty being paid.
"The construction of the San Diego
and Arizona Railway made these
grazing grounds accessible to the stock
men in the states east Of California, -
said Mr.. Matlin, "and previous to the
advent of the railroad, they were used
but little. Some cattle were driven to
the grazing grounds by way Of Mexi-
cali and Campo but due to their habit
Of wandering back to the place of up
loading at Mexicali, many cattle were
lost each year and the plan proved I'M
satisfactory. II is now possible to un-
load the cattle at Campo and drive
them to the feeding grounds. II they
stray back to the unloading place, it is
a very easy matter to round them up
and drive them to the grazing grounds
again.
1.-THE abundance of feed on these
grounds makes them blessing to the
stockmen and the cattle are usually
taken away in excellent condition. If
taken to San Diego they are fattened
on the product of the cotton seed mill,
or if brought to the valley, are fed nj.
falfa.
The San Diego road has excellent
facilities at Campo for handling this
stock and takes an active interest in
promoting the desirability Of the graz
ing grounds among the eastern cattle
men,

Interview With MOultOn
Tells HumOr's Sober Side
BY JOSEPHINE VAN DE GRIFT
Nea Service Staff Writer

There's nothing like little daily
stint of 10000 words or so to give a
columnist an appetite.
This from Roy X. Moulton whose
spacious apartment overlooking the
Hudson is a concrete testimonial that
humOr pays. And pay and pays.
Not that MoultOn sets any margin
to his daily output. Sometimes it
amounts to considerably more than
10000 words--sometimes it is less.
But set end to end and mounted stick
by stick the array of words is bound
to be imposing. One week, for in
stance, it amounted to six stories on
a bankers convention, three base ball
stories, two stories for magazines and
12 columns for daily and Sunday pa
pers.
MOulton s system is to keep three
tYpewriters' going with Il story, on
each typewriter. He works on one
story until he strikes snag where
upon he progresses to the next.
Occasionally he employs stenog
rapher at which times it is his Gus
tom to pace up and down the room
with newspaper and dictate such
items as the following: What do you
tthink Of the Turkish, atrocities! l
don t know, l never smoked one.
The paragraph will be duly pub
lished and the next day Moulton will
hear it on the street ear. Three days
later he will hear it in a vaudeville
house, week later a magazine will
quote it as coming from AN editor IN
Georgia, and four days later Mrs.
Moulton will rush home to relate tha:
she saw it in the movies.
All I'M all several million persons
will enjoy Moulton S little quip at the
expense Of the cigaret manufacturers.
Which is one of the cOmpensations
of being humorist.
To revert to the spacious apartment

Nobody Can Tell.

Hair that loses it's color and
luster or when 1t fades, turns
gray, dull and lifeless Is caused
by a lack of sulphur in the hair.
Our grandmother made up a mix

who value that even color, that
beautiful dark shade Of hair which
Is so attractive. use only this old

so naturally, so evenly. that no

applied. You just dampen al
sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, TAX
