PROGRESS

If readers will glance to the Looking Back
ward" column they will note item printed 20 years
ago. recounting the fact Of the first automobile trip
from San Diego to Imperial county, the journey being
made in Is hours.
One can almost visualize the trip; the bumpy
back-breakng roads; the steep and the peril
descents the mountains; the wheezy putting
little auto perhaps with maximum speed of 80 miles
hour a level highway, and not garage over the
entire distance if anything went wrong with the mech
anisn.
There must have been plenty of excitement in
making such trip which held out as much unknown
adventure any first trip does. Those who made
the trip undoubtedly suffered considerable personal
discomfort, if not personal hardship.
Today the trip be made in absolute COM
fort in oneffth of the time it took 20 years ago. In
stead of bumpy roads, little better than trails there is
first class highway all the way, with the promise of
paved route throughout before another year has
rolled around.
The wheezy. putting little auto is replaced by
that enable one to ride comfortably sitting in

Under the laws of Michigan, capital punishment
has been abandoned and the state only impose

words the citizens of Michigan including the father of
the slayers VICTIM must support him the rest of his

One can hardly blame the citizens of Michigan for

men will have to toll day in and day out to keep their
families supplied with the necessities of life and bear
the cost of keeping him and other murderers

COVER CROPS In
CITRUS ORCHARDS
REQUIRE TURNING

Winter cover crops in bearing
grapefruit orchards should be turn.
ed under in January or very early
in February. If the cover crop is
permitted to grow longer it may be
more detrimental than beneficial,
according to the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service.
Citrus trees require the maximum
amount of nitrates and fertility
while they are making their spring
flush of growth, blossoming, and
setting fruit, says Frank Beyschlag,
assistant farm advisor. A lack of
nitrates in the soil solution may re-
suit i'll poor set of fruit.
He states that growing legum-
inous cover crop first grasps all of
the nitrogen it can draw from the
soil solution. If this is insufficient
it secures more nitrogen through
its nodules from the air. a cover
crop that is permitted to compete
with the citrus trees for nitrogen in
the spring may result in smaller
packing house receipts for the grow
er in the fail. The cover crop
should be plowed or disccd under
early enough to decay before the
trees are making their spring de-
mands for nitratcs.
The cover crop should be turned
under only deep enough to get it
we'll covered. 1t is important that
the feeder roots of the trees be
not unnecessarily disturbed at this
season, says Mr.. Beyschlag. A
light irrigation should be given to
facilitate the decay of the cover
crop after it is turned under. \
heavy irrigation will result in the
soil warming up more slowly during
the spring. 1t also teaches soluablc
fertility below the reach OF the
tree roots.

OLD FENCE

these holes were stuck the ends of
long cedar rails, extending over the

places, il was tumbling down. TIL
