Neckties Sign
Adieu To Fall

Now and then a necktie makes
its appearance during daylight
hours in Ell Centro, certain sign
that erstwhile summer bachelors
are being put in order by their re-
turning Womenfolk.
Neckties are received with hoots
of derision by these who think the
fall not sufficiently established to
warrant a return to formal attire
Within a few days everyone will
be wearing them. The male of the
species cannot be individual. He
would rather be miserable.
Goats, however, remain in Sc
clusion. When they appear in
numbers enough to make a show
ing, all masculine residents of Ell
Centro sigh in unison, Goodbye
to summer, a farewell to comfort
and ease.

HYDRAULIC MACHINERY BE PURCHASED IN TIE
 STATES BY M. kAsT

Enroute to the States where he will purchase approximately $20,00O worth of hydraulic machinery, in cluding two rams capable of lifting sufficient water over hill for the operation of from two to three hy- draulic giants, Munroe Kast, one of the. real dyed-in-the-Wool placer mine pioneers of the Cache Creek district, is a guest at the Overland Hotel.
 The scene of the Kast develop nlent is on Poorman Creek, trib- utary to Peters Creek, where he has operated by h a d methods for many years, extracting sufficient gold to educate a family and keep himself going.
 At the age of 79 years, Munroe KaSt has the mental vigor and courage of a man of 45. He is one of the few of the old-line argonuats who have spurned laboring for others but who have wreSted their substance from the ground.
 For years he has been handicap ped for want of sufficient water. It was only last fall that he suc- ceeded in securing sufficient if nance with which to carry out his plans for increasing his pipe heads. With this outfit installed, Poorman promises to become one of the most prolific producers in the consistent old camp from which many mil lions have been extracted
 The machinery is expected to ar rive in time to be hauled out to Poorman on the spring crust. When the machinery is installed it will be possible to utilize the water on at least three giants, with Suffi- cient force to move large areas of gravel.
