Business Topics

st. Louis, June 10.-There has
been heavy investment OF funds in
building operations this week and
this tendency Of capital is an out
standing feature of the financial
situation in this section. Loans on
commercial. industrial and office
buildings are larger and more nu-
merous than in normal times. The
demand for money for realty in
vestment is extremely strong but
the supply seems to be unlimited.
The building of dwellings both by
persons who expect to reside in
them themselves or Vho build for
speculation is going forward at a
big rate.

Commodity News
RUBBER.

Akron, Ohio, June 10.-Unem-
ployment practically has disappear
ed in Akron and the rubber COM
panies are short handed. The
Goodyear company has planned a
daily production of $4,000 tires, but
has been unable to reach that fig
ure because of the scarcity OF
skilled labor.
AUTOMOBILES.
Detroit, June 10.-Raw materials
and finished parts are being used
up so fast by manufacturers of mo-
tor cars in this section that in
ventcries are being reduced to a
dangerous minimum. Any stoppage
in supplies would throw many men
out of work.
STEEL.
Chicago, June 10-Steel produc-
ton in this district still is unable
to keep pace with demand. The
bar mills of the United States Steel
corporation are running at capac-
ity and another mill may be added
soon.
Kansas City. Mo, June 10.-The
00No~A LA IAC pI1CC vi
MIA crude oil, it is expected, will be
followed by similar increase in
the Mid-Continent field, according
to oil operators here.
FRUIT.
Atlanta, Ca, June 10-Railway
officials estimate that the water
melon crop of Georgia has been
reduced from $4,000 to $4,000 cars
by rainy weather, and that the can
taloupe yield probably will not ex-
ceed $500 cars, as compared with
an expected yield of $500. Should
this estimate prove correst it is
probable that prices of melons will
be far above the level of last season.
SILK.
Seattle. June 10.-Imports of raw
silk from the Orient to this port
for the first five months of this
year were 65,91S sales. This had
q customs valuation of $61 1,932,531
The silk goods imports for the last
five months were 3,90s cases valued

BIG EVENTS
This " L ( K
IN VALLEY
By S. G, NORTH

This week Is, perhaps, The biggest
ilc Imperial Valley has ever had.
Not in actual results, but in what it
means for the future. j is hard to
say iust which is the most in poten-
tial value; but right now, the money
received by the nine mutual water
companies will mean more than
Hoover IS visit, while in thu years to
come, the results of his Fisit may
| lhc the most important. Eo, that us
it may, both are of in :alcuIable
worth.
The first means that thl farmers
are assured, that within a period of
months they will receive a huge sum
of money to employ i'll improving
conditions. Money, which in a ma
jOrity of instances, can only be
used right here and which must be
used in real upbuilding. Nothing is
more common than the comment
from strangers here, upon the in
stability OF the improvements and
the slirshod methods used in farm
ing. This had not been intentional,
In the past, the residents Of the I'M
perial Valley have felt themselves
to be pioneers and were willing to
leave the permanent upbuilding to
those who came after them, satisfied
with the fact that they lad blazed
the way for progress.
Added to this was uncertainty as
TO the ultimate solution Of the flood
menace and the water qucS ton. Now
both Of these are III fair way to
be solved permanently. The consol-
idatiOn OF the water companies
with the irrigation district has
answered the first one and the visit
of Secretary Hoover, marks the be
ginning of the movement which will
ultimately solve the second one.
Now Inc resident of the Imperial
Valley can no longer regard himself
as pioneer. He is living in what
is, perhaps, the richest valley in the
world; he has ample markets; he is
ha\ ing vast sums Of money placed
at his disposal and eventually will
have all water and flood troubles
eliminated. If he is Il real citizen,
if he wishes TO survive economic
competition, he must change his
methods. Farms must be cultivated
with Wow to the future. Crops
must be rotated, lands properly fer
tllized and permanent structure of
all sorts placed on them. In other
words every man must regard this
great valley as his life time home
and must treat his own individual
plot of it in that manner.
No man can afford to take the,
"lct George do it" attitude, for
each man must work this program
out for himself and it is up to the
leading men of the Imperial Valley
to set the example and the others
will fall in line. Truly man is "his
brothers. keeper and no man is do
ing his part as good citizen and
an up-to-date farmer unless he will
from now on do his best to set
standard which will be noted and
followed br his neighborS.

P r ESER We
YOUR YOUTH

Commencing at the time when
first youth is beginning to fade, we
all strive frantically to preserve it,.
Women do SO openly by means of
powder, rouge and all the other
beauty aids and while men are not
so open in their ways, yet they do
the same thing, by means of striv-
ing to dress youthfully and affect
youthful ways.
But all such efforts are in vain.
NO one can stand still; time at last
overtakes us each and all and all
we can do is to call back more or
less clearly remembered visions of
times gone by and our appearance
then.
But there is one way III which
Imperial Valley press., 1922-12-06

YOU can preserve your youthful APP

it is Il joy forever.
