DOWd Addresses
Local kiWanis

NJ. J. Dowd, chief engineer of the
Imperial Irrigation district, was
the main speaker at KiWanis club
luncheon at the Barbara Worth
hotel yesterday noon.
He discussed the All-American
canal contract and explained how
the construction is to be financed.
Savings made on the elimination
of silt" said the engineer, will
more than pay for the canal. Pay
ments for the work will not start
until after the canal is completed. "
With the assistance of Uncle Sam
the water supply will be controlled
locally and, in the opinion of the
speaker, the interest the federal
government will have in the project
will be most helpful.
Delightful musical entertainment
was provided by Mrs. Ruth Patter-
son Miller, Mrs. Dorothy Hyatt
Jones and Miss Mary Patterson,
radio and motion picture artists.
The harmony trio was received
with enthusiastic applause on the
part of KiWanians who thoroughly
enjoyed the music and pianologues.

TESTS TOLD TO
STUDENT CLASS

in the farm advisors office, was tie
speaker Wednesday morning at the
F. F As meeting at the high
school.
His talk was on the treatment Of
lettuce seed and the experiments
being conducted along this line in
Imperial valley He told in detail
how the seed is treated by first
being moistened and then placed
under refrigeration for four or five
days: the seed are then dried and
soon afterwards planted in the field.
In the experimental plot where
these seeds are planted, rows plant
ed with the treated seed are placed
rext to untreated rows. The treated
seed sprouted about three days ear
lier than the untreated seeds. Win
right stated many of the lettuce
growers in the valley think this
early sprouting will be a great bene-
fit to the early lettuce growers.
After the talk, the F. F. A. bows
were taken out to the Sawdey- Hunt
ranch, northeast of Ell Centro, where
Dr. H. A. BorthWick, professor of
botany at the University Of Califor-
MIA college of agriculture at Davis,
went more into detail concerning
the experiment.
Frank Beyschlag, farm advisor,

! perimental plot and pointed out the
wonderful stand on the treated rows
as compared with the untreated.
