adventures.
"Ill bring you safely back, "
promised Grandpa Goosey. "All
aboard!" he cried like a railroad
train or steamboat conductor.
Get on, Moon Man." invited the
rabbit. So the little chap did,
holding fast by putting his arms
around Grandpa Goosey's neck.
Uncle Wiggily climbed up behind
the Man from the Moon and then
the gander, with a loud honk,
flapped his wings and sailed high
into the air.
Up, up, up into the sky flew
Grandpa Goosey. He flew past the
North Star and it was very cold,
but the warm feathers of the gen.
tleman goose kept Uncle Wiggily
and the Moon Man cozy and warm.
They flew past the Dog Star who
barked at them in jolly way.
Suddenly a big, pale disk was seen
in the sky.
There's my moon!" cried the
Man. Let me off here, please!"
"All right" honked the gander.
He flew close to the morning moon,
which was pale because there was
no Man to turn on the lights. Off
Grandpa Goosey's back jumped the
little Man. He slid down a silvery
beam and landed safely on the
Moon which at once became bright.
80 long, Uncle Wiggily,' called
the Man. Thanks a lot. Look for
me in the sky tonight"
Il will" said Uncle Wiggily as
Grandpa Goosey flew with him
back to earth. And, surely enough,
the Man was in the moon that
night.
And if it will only rain chocolate
drops the next time the sky is
cloudy, SO the sidewalk can have
a party, I'll tell you on Monday
about Uncle Wiggily and Jackie's
bark.

Expert Addresses
Turkey Growers

Wilson Newton, extension special
ist in poultry, with H. Lee Lander
man, assistant farm advisor and
poultry expert, conducted meet
ing yesterday at Holtville for the
turkey growers of the valley.
Newton pointed out that the out
look for the turkey market next
fall and winter is not too bright
due both to the economic situation
and the fact that at present there
are 100000 pounds of dressed
turkeys in cold storage, twice the
amount in storage as obtained last
year at the same time. Further
more there is an increase in the
number of brooding hens carried
over and a large crop is indicated
for the coming year.
Problems of feeding are care OF

Rancher Reports
Calves Stolen

After a temporary curb had been
placed on cattle stealing in Imper-

sheriff's office again was troubled
today by the task of running down
thieves who last night stole four
calves from the ranch of H. d.
Holmes a mile and a half south
of Brawley.
The thieves also stole another
calf from a ranch directly across
the road from that of Holmes.
Stolen between 4 and 6 o'clock
last night, the calves were hauled
away in a truck. One was fawn
colored Guernsey heifer, eight weeks
old, one a black and white Holstein
heifer four weeks old, one red
bull calf eight weeks old, and one
a Holstein heifer three weeks old.

ADVERTISING FOR PHYSICIANS

WHEN DR.. Allen B. Kanavel, presi-
w dent of the American College of
Surgeons, pleaded the other day for
legitimate medical advertising to COM
bat "charlatans and medical hijack-
ers,' he touched on a point to which
physicians the country over have been
giving much thought lately. AS things
stand now, the quack and the faker ad-
vertise without restraint; but the sci
entifically trained physician, more in
terested in promoting the health of his
fellows than in building up his own
bank account, cannot The rule against
advertising by physicians, of course,
was designed for the protection of the
public, and it was an excellent rule.
But it is worth considering whether
the times have not changed enough to
make some modification of it advis-
able.-Riverside Press.
And why not?
Certainly honest advertising by a con-
scientious doctor would not make him
any less ethical than the businessman
who at the same time advertises and ad-
heres to a code of ethics.
Newspapers may be criticized as hav-
ing a selfish motive in wishing to see
doctors become advertisers. Those who
think that way possibly could not be con-
vinced that no such motive exists.
What is written above of doctors,
might also be applied to other non-ad-
vertising professions. The patent law
yer, for Instance, advertises and is not
considered unethical. Why not the law
yer handling criminal and civil cases?

corning Imperial Valley. which is fire.
quently met in the eastern and middle
west portions of the country.
The article referred to a school teacher
in Chicago whose ideas on Imperial Val
ley were changed by reading information
in the Mid-Winter Fair edition of this
publication.
1t explained that among some of the
uninformed, Imperial Valley is often
confused with Death Valley. This no
doubt arises from the fact that both
valleys are in California and both are
below sea-level.
Also, the fact that Imperial Valley
was at one time as arid as Death Valley,
helps in creating the misunderstanding.
While those of us who know the diff
ference marvel that anyone could be so
unenlightened as not to know the story
of Imperial Valleys reclamation, it is
nevertheless true that such ignorance does
exist.
1t is unfortunate that our story is not
universally known, but because it is not,
we have an opportunity to do plenty of
missionary work by making it known
that Death Valley is one place and I'M
perial is quite another one.
