A nrw form of Official order

to issue official notices of quaran

In addition to simplifying public
business, the department S actien
carries important practical benefits
TO livestock owners. 1t enables the

The issuance of the notice, de-
partment officials explain, means
that the livestock owner can again
continue his regular farming oper-
atiohs and the sale of products. |
While the indemnity which live
sock owner receives for animals
condemned and destroyed because
of oot-and mouth disease largely
compensates him for the animals
themselves, the indemnity does not
cover the losses and financial hard
ships resulting from quarantine re-
stricfions. Consequently, the de-
partment is doing al in its power to
simplify and facilitate the proce
dmre of Withdrawing quarantine
measures completely as soon as the
test period has expired. Amend

permits dairymen and other live

Dear What makes YOU SO cock
sure about what YOU think You can
do as a member of congress. Why
did you fail to use those transeen-
dent abilities for accomplishment in
the California state senate3
AT the last session, January 80,
1928. YOU introduced the bills TO
provide for needs in maintenance
aud betterment of the State Teach
ers college in San Diego, and call
ing for appropriations of $l99, 400
in the aggregate.
Not one of the bills became
law nor ever got beyond refer
ence to committees.
As a go-getter' did you fail or
were You pusheds
Killed Them All
Were YOU utterly negleetful of
the needs of one of the most use
ful and valuable institutions of
San Diego, or too busy in uphold
ing Gov. Richardson 5 policy of re-
ducing taxes on the big corporations
of the state at the expense of
schools and state charitable and re-
formatory enterprises to give the
business your most distinguished
consideration
At the same session, Ed, you
introduced bills to prohibit the kill
ing of tree squirrels prior to Sep
tember, 1925, to authorize the
slaughter of cottontail rabbits at
any time in fish and. game dis
tricts,' and one to create "a
cadet reserve in this state.
With the full exercise, presum-
ably, of your Herculean legislative
powers, YOU put these bills through
both houses; and His Excellency
YOUR Friend Governor killed all of
'em without reason or rhyme for
the record beyond that terse phrase
"Pocket veto.
Don t you feel that it is almost
time for you asi distinguished
90 getter' TO explain whether
your present campaign for pro
motion is planned and prosecuted
to fool Harry Chandler and the
Tijuana promoters or merely your
constituents in San Diego county
and the voters in Imperial Valley,
Riverside and Orange and San
