FACTS TELL STORY

Calamity howlers and those who look
only on the dark side of present condi-
tons, might find little hope and en-
couragement from the statement by the
county tax collector on collections for
the current fiscal year.
This shows that sum amounting to
50 per cent of the total has been collect
ed thus far and that by the time the year
closes on June 30, the percentage will be
increased to S5 per cent
Collections in other counties through
out the state do not show any such high
percentage, according to the tax collec-
tor, and the record made here is taken
as an absolute indication that things are
not really bad with US.
Payments from nonresident land own
ers also have been satisfactory, showing
that although outside depression may
crimp the owners, they realize the desir-
ability of keeping their Imperial Valley
land clear.
Facts and figures prove more than
idle guesses and grumblings. Of course
there may be some who feel that the col
lection should reach 100 per cent before
they would admit there is no depression,
but these in the afterworld, will prob
ably kick about the pitch of their harps
or the size Of their coal shovels.

KLINE OUR GUARDIAN

While it is very nice for Senator
Chester NJ. Kline to have kindly
thought for the morals and financial
welfare of Imperial Valley, it is diff
cult for us to understand the solicitude
which inspired him to introduce bill IN
the legislature asking the federal gov
ernment to close the international line at
CaleXico at 6 o'clock.
We have pretty good pair of repre-
sentatives in Assemblyman Sam E. Rob
inson and Senator Nelson I. Edwards.
1t would seem that they are perfectly
capable of taking care of the needs OF
their constituents. Possibly either or
both asked Senator Kline to introduce the
bill but we doubt it. That doesn't sound
like Robinson or Edwards.
It NAV be that Mr.. Kline is trying to
make UP for his backsliding in the re-
cent reapportionment squabble, when he
sided with the north against the south.
Randall Henderson of the CaleXlco
Chronicle apparently believes that this
is the case. Until better explanation Is
learned, it is as good as any.

COFFEE VARIES IN ! FLAVOR IF ROAST IS THIGH" OR "LOW''
Hills Bros. Overcome This Variation by Their Patented Process-Controlled Roasting

There is no way to know when a big batch of coffee is perfectly roasted. One batch may be Thigh" !" another "low," with the result that there is variation of flavor.
 Hills Bros. overcome this uncer- tainty, with their radically differ ent and exclusive process = Con- trolled Roasting. As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow :. little at a time so the uniform flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by this patented process that roasts evenly, continuously .. c little at q time. Positive control of heat de- velops every berry to perfection = to the degree that insures rich, full-bodied, unvarying flavor in every pound.
 No other coffee tastes like Hills Bros. Coffee because no other coffee is roasted the same way. Controlled Roasting is Hills Bros own process.
 Hills Bros. Coffee is packed in vacuum cans that keep it ever fresh. Air, which destroys the fla yor of coffee, is removed from cans and kept out. Coffee packed in ordinary cans, even if "air-tight,' T does not stay fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name, and look for the Arab trademark on the can.
