Is what these opponents OF daylight
saving have done In passing. In the
house. the new law against displaying
clocks in public which show any time
other than standard time.
The question comes do these men
intend TO pass law that they must
know lis unconstitutional, 10 say moth
ing of its merits, or are they unable
to realize that such law would be
unconstitutional? II the former--if
they want to try to get by with an
unconstitutional law, what may be
said of their patriotism. their loyalty
to their land and its basic law? If the
latter-if they cannot see such a law
would be unconstitutional, what may
be said for their powers of reasoning?
Let one question be asked of them.
Would they pass a law providing a |
penalty to be imposed upon the man
who, when asked in public what time
1t was, replied that it is Seven
o'clock a. M, when, according to
standard time 1t was six o'clock. A
law providing punishment for stating
the time according to daylight saving
time would be Just as constitutional
as this one providing punishment for
displaying a daylight saving time
clock in building that fronts on
public street.
We have not yet returned to the
ignorant. narrow state of mind that
allows our legislators to provide pun
ishment for man who, if you will,
makes statement not In accordance
with the facts as considered facts

from the matter of free speech, and
aside, also, from the merits of the

into consideration that practically
al the fruit shipped so far has gone
to just two markets, San Francisco
apd Los Angeles, and is command
ing Il good premium over other
grapefruit from other sections and
the yield per tree is so large here,
(sometrees yielding as high as 10

outlook for the future seems most
favorable.
Until few years ago practically
all the trees planted here were ship
ped in from the coast, but now the
sour orange seed is brought from
Florida and the sour stock budded
with grapefruit buds from register

growth and stronger trees are the
result.
Quite large acreage will be

when you take into cosidcration the
fact that hardly 10 per cent of the
people of the United States have
ever eaten grapefruit and that our
fruit can be and is not only used as
Il breakfast food but as desert,
feel justified in saying that with IL
strong cooperative organization in

it will be quite while before the
production will equal the demand

/ have been asked many times
what makes our fruit so much sweet
or than fruit in other sections of
the country.
We are all entitled to our own
theory as to the cause.
My theory is that it IS a combin-
~tion of the salts in the soil, the
perpetual sunshine and dense foliage
that places our fruit in a class by
itself and makes it so delightful
that even the children eat it like
an orange.
Analysis of our fruit by the chem
lists at the University of California
shows that our fruit has very little
more sugar than fruit from other
sections, but that it has less acid,
and that is WIN / believe the salts
in the soil have an active part in
making our fruit the delicious break
fast food it is BY neutralizing the
acid.
Most people think the leaves of
the tree Hre Just protection for
the tree and fruit, but they serve
%nother and far moro important
purpose, for they are just as neces-
sary as feeders for tree and fruit
as the root system, gathering nitro
gen from the air, therefore an abun-
dance of foliage on the Imperial
Vclley trees is a large factor in max
ing the trees bear SO heavily.
We all know that a plant grown
III dark PLACE is always pale and
&icklY, whereas the same plant
grown III sunshine is strong, bright
and healthy and the more sunshine
it gets the better it grows, .hat is
why with sunshine nearly every day
III the year, Imperial Valley grape
fruit trees make such wonderful
growth that six year old tree is
as large as an eight year old tree
in other sections.
Therefore, the combination of
suitable soil, perpetual sunshine and
plenty of water, makes Imperial
Valley an ideal place to grow grape
fruit that is unsurpassed for flavor
anywhere in the world. Looking at
the grapefruit Industry here from a
commercial standpoint, l would say
it was perfectly safe and ramun-
erative investment, for ] know Of
several instances where growers re-
ceived more than $4,000 net per
acre foratheir fruit. y. -.

Imperial Valley Grapefruit
a Profitable Crop
By g. F. Dolan, Manager Barbara Worth Packing House,
Imperial, California

The Pomelo or grapefruit as it is
commonly called, is one of the least
known of citrus fruits so [ presume
a breif sketch of its origin and use
to 9 place OF prominence on the
breakfast table Of today would not
be out of place at this time.
The pomelo is not, as many people
still think, u cross of> two or more
, Jcitrus fruits, but is distinct specie,
a native of Polynesian and the Ma
layan archipelagocs.
The earliest reference TO pomelo
was in the 18th century, the name
pomelo is supposed to have been de
rived from pomum melo, the melon
fruit.
The name grapefruit as it is more
commonly called, evidently original
ed in the West Indies, and called
such because of its tendency TO grow
III clusters like grapes.
The Marsh Seedless, the variety
grown in Imperial Valley, was nam
ed for MIR. c. M. Marsh, who intro
duced it about 1896 at Lakeland,
Florida The original tree was a
Seeding and at least 90 years old
at that time.
Grapefruit was first planted com.
mercially III California in 1896, fol-
lowing the freeze in Florida, and
the first trees were planted in I'M
perial Valley about 1907 by Aaron
Cox on the ranch now owned by I.
b. Hinrichsen, about four miles
northeast of FL Centre.
The trees arc still bearing well
and last year averaged about five
boxes Of good saieable fruit per
tree.
In 19l415 about 400 acres were
planted i'll various parts of the val
ley and the trees which were prop
erly cared for are now bearing an
abundance of fruit Of excellent
quality.
The trees arc planted in soil rang
ing from almost pure sand to real
hard soil, and as Near | can tel!
from my own experience, with fruit
from all parts Of the country, there
is very little difference in the quail
ity Of the fruit.
The fruit industry, as I see it, is
the same as any manufacturing busi-
ness.
Asa manufacturer cannot make a
first class article without using
proper care in the selection of ma
terials used in the making of an
article, so it is with the fruit indus
try, unless the grower procures the
best trees obtainablc when he starts
his grove he can not expect to have
firstclass fruit.
Also unless the trees after being
planted are not given proper atten,
tion, the soil cared for by fertiliza-
tion, cultivation and intelligent irri-
cation, the trees can not be expect
ed to bear good crops of first grade,
fruit, even in lmperiaf VALLEY,
where all things grow profusely.
In Imperial Valley we have very
few of the pests to contend with
that growers in other citrus raising
