Expert to Give
Talks on Right
Poultry Feeding

w. r. Newton, poultry specialist
of the agricultural extension service
of the University of California and
the L. S. department of agriculture,
will give a series of poultry feeding
demonstration in different parts
of Imperial Valley. These are now
being arranged by the farm bureau
and the agricultural extension ser
vice for Imperial county,.
Mr.. Newton, who was formerly in
charge of the poultry department of
the College of Agriculture of the
University of Michigan, will take
up not only the feeding of baby
chicks and growing chicks, but also
the feeding Of pullets, laying hens,
poultry for fattening, etc. Too
many people in Imperial Valley
feed old and young chicks cracked
corn and water until large enough
to eat whole corn when they are
turned out to rustic for themselves
in corn stack and alfalfa field,
and then the owners wonder why
they don't make money out of their
chickens.

STATES BLUE
SKY" ACT STILL
in OPERATION

made public at this time. The
facts are these:
The Corporate Securities Act has
not been annulled. 1t has not even
been punctured.
Units as oil stock or any other
stock will continue to be governed
and supervised by the state cor
poration department.
The bars have not been let down
to all classes of oil promoters. They
have not been let down to any
class.
A permit must be secured in order
to issue "units,' pipe line deeds,
assignments of royalty interest, or
any instrument which would entitle
the purchaser to share of the
profits to be derived from the drill
ing of an oil well or wells.
The only reason L can find for
the broadcasting of such mislead
ing information is the decision Of
the District Court of Appeals in the
case of the State of California VS.
f. A. Lamb. In this case Lamb
was selling deeds to a 14000 undivi-
ded interest in small tract of land
at Santa Fe Springs. The title of
this land was vested in the state
Torrens Title company who issued
the deeds. In none of this printed
literature rdid Lamb promise to
drill an oil well with the proceeds
of the sale of this land. The court
held that in this case the deed was
not a security, nor Lamb Il "com-
pany' or "trustee' within the
meaning of the Corporate Securities
Act.
So, in order to evade the Corpor-
ate Securities Act, Mr. Promoter,
you must buy some land and then
in charging a fabulous price for
an undivided interest you must be
careful not to make it too clear
that you are going to use the money
to drill an oil well. You must let
the poor sucker infer this by mnu-
Imperial Valley press., 1923-04-13

Second: Ask the salesman or
agent to see his license issued by
this department.
Whenever these evidences of good
faith cannot be produced then steer
clear of the outlaw promoter s prop
osition. 1t is usually Is swindle, or
at least the proposition is SO unfair
that you are bound to lose.
Let me warn you, Mr.. OUTLAW
Promoter, that whatever you issue
will be investigated and if found
to be "a security, issued without a
permit, you will be prosecuted to
the fullest extent of the law.
Why should a promoter attempt
to evade the jurisdiction of the
Corporation Commission, when he
knows, that if his proposition is
fair, just and equitable, he will
have no trouble in obtaining a per-

Advice to Investors
Let me urge upon you, Mr.. In
vestor, if you are determined to in
vest your money in oil, do these
two things; first: Ask to see the
permit issued by the Commissioner
of Corporations, for if you buy and
it develops that the concern is is
suing securities without permit
you have nothing but a scrap of pa
per-your certificate is null and
void. The Commissioner of Cor
porations makes every attempt to
protect California investors, but he
cannot compel them to read the per-
mits issued to companies, which
permits usually contain facts about
the company that an investor should
know before parting with his
money.
