BY TRAINLOADS

Grape shipments from Imperial val
ley average four to six ears by freight,
and from eight to II ears by express
daily. Several times this week, train
No. 10 of the Southern Pacific has
been run in two sections, the first COM
posed entirely of cars loaded with
grapes consigned direct to Chicago.
From there some are distributed
throughout the middle west, and others
expressed to New York. q

This is a reminder to all roadhoIders
that The annual inspection of the
Public roads will take place in the
month of January 1923.
The repairs should be completed before
the Dist Dec. 1922, when all bridges.
sidewalks, etc. shall BE- whitewashed.
Special attention should be paid to the
Quarter Jobs completed within the
past year, and when necessary, re-aOhate-
mashed. Up TO the present, with the
exceptions of the wedding of the roads,
very little has been done, and it is i'm
