ENTERING COUNTY
Board Supervisors Pass
New Rule for Com
batting Scale

Following closely on the action
of the board of supervisors in
authorizing campaign against noN-
ious weeds in Imperial county, steps
were taken te protect the cit
rus crops here when resolution
was passed recently by the super
yisors providing for the fmnigation
of all citrus stock and trees brulght
into Imperial county from other
places.
B. A. Harrigan, horticultural com
missioner. stated this moraing that
the proposed method of fumig"tioa
is conducted by suhJcc.iug citrus
shoots and trees to Il vacuum OF
- pounds and trelting them with
solution of hydro cyanic gas,
which is the best and safest means
Of cradicatiug infections, and a
the same time does the least dam
age to the trees so treated. All
! fumigatiou subjects trees to more
Or les, burning, but by treating
, them With hydro cyanic acid gas,
this condition is reduced to a
minimum.
Great Need for Precaution
In discussing the Importance of
thi, fumigation. Mr.. IIarrigan
pointed out that this YER Los An
grlrs county is spending $1,000
i'm the control Of the black scale
Vest and Tularc county is spending
s3o0,000 in the Icontrol of the citri-
cola pest. If either of those pests
should appear in the county, il is
estimated it would cost from $50
TO $40 per acre TO control them and
much more to eradicate them.
Due to isolation of Imperial
county citrus orchards from those
i'm other counties infected with
pests it is comp rativcly easy to
/ keep them in good condition, and
the only danger is in the jmporta-
ton Of infected stock from the
outside. BY subjecting all such
stock to the vacuum fumigation, il
+ T.. believed that this county will be
saf, from the ravages of the pest
that are causing such trouble in the
, other counties.
Installation of fumigating plant
for this purpose will not be under
taken in this county at present

MORTGAGE

NEW
FEE
ON

Mrs. Bird Hobby, county record
cr, is advising banks and other con
Germs handling mortgages, of 4
change in the fee for recording
these instruments, which was pro
vided for by the last legislature,
and becomes effective August IS.
The new law reads: Whenever
a mortgage is filed III the office Of
the recorder, purporting to create
a lien upon livestock, vehicles
(other than motor vehicles) or any
ether migratory chattels, or when
the partial or full discharge of the
assignment of such Il mortgage APP
pears of record, then it shall be his
duty to collect i'll addition to the
recording fee, an additional fee of
IS cents rs provided i'll Section
1900 c, and thereupOn make a Ger
tificatc over his official signature
upon the forms to be provided by
the secretary of state and transmit
same to the secretary of state to-
gethcr with the fee so collccted.'
This means that the recorder
must charge an additional 75 cents
for all chattels, releases and assign
ments, except motors, and those
who handle mortgages should in
cludc this charge for their clients.
Mrs Hobby stated today that in
her opinion the fee is unreasonable,
but the bill providing for such fee
passed the legislature and was sign
ed b ythe governor, therefore there
is no alternative but complete ad-

Coming From Frederick
W. Hill, Visitor Here, and
Includes Much Unsolicited
Boosting for the City.

The Associated Press correspond
ent in Chicago interviewed Frederick
w. Hill, the man who ran the nation
al open golf tournament at Skokie,
on his return TO Chicago from a visit
in San Antonio, and the result, broad
casted over the whole world Friday
morning, is an unsolicited boost for
this city of the highest order. Here's
the A. Z. story:
"The most frequented golf links in
the world has been discovered to be
the Breckenridge Park public course
in San Antonio, Texas. That links,
according to Frederick W. Hill of
Skokie. who returned from Texas
yesterday, took care of more than
$4,000 persons last year, although
the population of San Antonio is only
about COCO more than that figure, &C
cording TO latest census.
Better Than Chicago.
"The record betters that supposed
to be held by the Jackson Park 'eigh-
teen-hole links in Chicago by about
$4,000. That was possible because
there were some 300 golfing days in
San Antonio, while Chicago furnish
ed its myriad golfers with around 200
days of golfing turf and weather.
Jackson Park, however. outdid Brack-
enridge Park, for it also has a nine
