RITERSIDERS COMING.

1t is pleasing to learn that Riverside
businessmen are planning good will trip
to Imperial Valley next week and the
visitors from the north can be assured of
a real welcome when they come here
To the best of our knowledge, no such
delegation has been here previously, GER
tainly not in several years. This is rath-
er odd when one stops to reflect upon it,
for there is much in common between Riv-
erside and Imperial Valley. The former
city played quite part in the early de-
velopment of the valley and many of its
prominent citizens still retain interests
here.
We have had delegations from San Di-
ego, Los Angeles, Yuma, Phoenix and
many other cities, but Riverside has al
ways seemed to give us the run around,
as the sport expression terms it.
Just why this should be it is inlpos-
sible to state No doubt Riversiders have
been so busy with their own affairs that
they have not had time to go visiting. 1t
has led to the impression in some valley
quarters that Riversiders are "stiff-
necked'' and "upstage". Riversiders may
Justly have similar or worse ideas about
us, for we have done little visiting IN
their city.

the community visited and for the orr,
gin point of the visit. There are general
problems effecting the entire Southwest
that can be better solved by discussion
of their various phases between residents
of communities.
The FL Centro Chamber of Commerce,
cooperating with other chambers in the
valley. is planning an interesting pro-
gram for the Riversiders and it is safe to
predict we will not find them the least
bit "upstagey" and they will find that
we are not such a bad sort either.

''I'm going to make a noise as
If l were a Fox and I'll see what
nv little boys do, thought Uncle
Niggily TO himself. So he shook the
bush and broke a stick. All at once
M;ppy stopped spinning his top and
Tippy stopped shooting marbles and
the bunny boys froze into such quiet
fess that, if you had seen them, you
would have said they were candy
rabbits.
OF course Mippy and Tippy didn t
exactly freeze stiff like an iciele.
But when any animal suddenly be-
comes very quiet, that is called
f'freezing." - They do this so no hun.

'.Ha, Ha. l fooled you" laughed
Uncle Wiggily and you may be sure
Tippy and Mippy were glad to hear
their dady's voice. ''You remem-
! bered the freezing lesson very
well,' went on Mr.. Longears. "But
you must also practice your quiet

then j III see how quietly you can hop

or rustic a leaf"
But when Mippy went to take the
fast turn at moving slowly along

stopped short and said:

Wiggily looked, every path leading
out of the dingley dell had on ii
either leaves that would rustic OF
sticks that would break, thus max
inc a noise which would tell the sly
whiting Fox that rabbits were com
, ing and he would pounce on them
"What are we going to do, dad
dy. How can we get out'' asked
! the two little rabbit boys.
"We must fix it so there will be
some other noise so loud,' said I'm.
Gle Wiggily, "that the Fox will
hear only that and will not hear the
noise of rustling leaves or breaking
sticks. 1 will give you crow lesson.
Crows. you know, are very noisy

Lead in the sky they make so much
noise that a rabbit can crack sticks

"But where are the crows!" ask

FEDERAL STATE
HAY INSPECTION
REPORT ISSUED
BY o. r. MITCHELL,
Department Of Agriculture, State OF
California

During the two weeks ending
April 15 that federal-state hay grad.
ing has been in operation in Imper-
ial Valley, 35 certificates have been
issued. Approximately 500 tons Of
alfalfa have been inspected and
graded as follows:
U. s. No. l extra leafy, extra
green, IL carloads.
U. s. No. l, extra leafy, 81 car
loads.
U. s. No. Q extra leafy, AZ car
loads.
U. s. No. extra leafy, 40 ear
loads.
L. s. No. !, 1879 carloads.
Y. s. No. leafy, carloads.
Y. S. No. green, Al carloads.
q. s. sample grade alfalfa (under-
eured). % carloads.
Total 800 carloads.
The above grades are tabulatet
according to 'h.,ir feeding value az
/ dairy hay. U. S. extra i,afy con-
tains on an average 7 pounds more
digestible protein per lC0 lbs. of
alfalfa than U. S. lcafy alfalfa.
| The color of U. s. No. extra leafy
alfalfa is less than that of y. s. No.
alfalfa. The federal hay stan
dards recognize leaf as more i'm
portant grading factor than color in
the dairy types Of hay so U. S. No.
2 extra leafy alfalfa has more milk
producing value than U. s. No. l
or u. s. No. l extra green.
The 90 ears of U. s. sample
grade alfalfa so graded because the
hay was undercured, represents the
amount found in nine carlots. One.
fourth Of the ears graded showed
that there was undercured hay in
them. Several of these ears were
examined on their arrival in Los
Angeles and without exception hay
that was undercured in the valley
was heating upon its arrival in Los
Angeles.
There were l6 carloads of sound
hay that were uniformally loaded
and ii ears that had two grades of
alfalfa in them not counting the
hay that was undereured.
