THERE AND HERE

Already the days carries tales of the reign OF
King Winter throughout the greater part of the
try accompanied by his usual toll Of DEATH hardshps
and sufferings.
Those in rural sections expose themselves to illness
and danger they go about their daily tasks in tenn
peratures where reading is considered not to be
In the larger cities hundreds of homeless
unfortunates and those having homes but little else
flock to the charitable organizations and to the law
seeking relief from their sufferings.
Communities called upon to spend hundreds OF
thousands of dollars removing from city streets
and making highways passable utility and transport
alton companies to heavy to keep their
lines in operation individual home must invest
in heavy supplies of fuel to keep them comfortable
through the next four months more
While these things are happening in great
er than IS per cent of the counrys siZe in Imperial
Valley enjoying weather that cannot be surpassed
little snappy in the morning, though seldom reaching
the freezing point bamy and mild during the day, and
then little snap night there is death toll,
no suffering, great outlay of public and private
capital; none of the many lnconVenlenceS winch the
advent of winter brings.
Only those who have lived in other sections, where
many morning the mercury hangs on hook entirely
below the thermometer the saying goes can really
appreciate Imperial Valleys winter climate, and even
many of who have had this experience, take our
present blessing matter Of course
1t is at this period of the year often wish OF
our summer grumblers could be suddenly transported
back to the Middle West the Atlantic seaboard for
lengthy dose of real uncomfortable and dangerous
weather. They would certainly be cured of the grum-
bles, perhaps for all time.
If there is any pleasure in life at and below,

Goodyear Tires
Popular With
All Motorists

"We expect and are preparing for
a rush of business during the sum-
mer months,' declare McNeece &
McNeece, Ell Centro Goodyear deal
ers located at Sixth and Broadway,
in announcing receipt of a stock of
the new Goodyear Pathfinder tires
in both high pressure and balloon
sizes
1--WE have handled the Goodyear
line for serveral years and have al
ways done a handsome business in
the Pathfinder tire, which ranks
next to the All-Weather tread in
value and price and which stands as
the equal, if not the superior, of
standard tires made by smaller tire
manufacturers.
"The volume of sales of Pathfind-
ers has been great all over the coun-
try and this fact led Goodyear en-
gineers at Akron to conduct a series
of experiments with the idea of inn
proving this tire. Their research
work is behind the improvements
which have been included in the new
Pathfinder.

Butterfat Test
Methods Shown

Testing Milk, Cream and Skim
Milk for Butterfat, Circular 230 of
the University of California Col
lege of Agriculture, is off the press
and ready for distribution, according
to announcement of DR.. G. l.. Road
house, head of the Dairy Industry
Division here. This publication,
written by d. H. Nelson, associate
in dairy industry and junior dairy
technologist in the experiment sta
tion, may be obtained free from the
College Of Agriculture at Berkeley
or Davis, or from any farm advisor.
This circular describes an APP
proved and practical method of us
ing the Babcock test that is suitable
for the dairyman, the manufactures
of dairy products, and the official
test supervisor. The directions Civ
en- are expressed in such manner
that the tests can be made by per-
sons not familiar with chemical
analysis or laboratory practices.
However, the author advises, per-
sons not familiar with such proce-
dure would find it helpful to OBJ
serve the work being done at local
creamery or other place where tests
are being made before attempting to
operate the test independently.

ed to motorists at no extra cost. In
fact, new low prices prevail, which
makes the Pathfinder the greatest
value outside of the Goodyear ALI
Weather tread tire, on the market
today.
Important improvements include
Strengthening the carcass of the
tire, which is built of Supertwist,
the exclusive Goodyear cord fabric,
and stronger and newly designed
tread which adds to the service and
safety margins,' he said.
"Supertwist, which was develop
ed by Goodyear several years ago,
prevents fabric fatigue which
causes most tire trouble, and keeps
Goodyear tires running long after
ordinary tires have been worn out
and discarded.
"The new tread design brings
the Pathfinder closer to the All
Weather fast tread wear and give
grraier traction on pavements III
all binds of Wcather.''

New Mountain
Road Is Oiled

The state highway department
is oiling the newly opened road be
tween Descanso and the paved high
way leading into San Diego, those
from the valley who drove to The
coast this week end learned.
That part of the oiled road whicn
is completed gives the motorists ii
real speedway as the highway is
very wide and there are few curves.
1t is expected, according to high
way foreman this morning, that the
entire stretch from Descanso vii!
be treated similarly thus elimina.
ting the present dusty condition on
part Of the road.
The road from Descanso east
through Pine Valley will be cen
creted and ready to drive on before
another six weeks. One side of the
road for a number of miles is all
ready for pouring.
