VALLEY &c TS
FINE PURLICIT

Imperial Valley is again "news
for periodicals interested in agri-
culture, and "good news'', accord
ing to DR.. Sem Bacon, chairman
Of the industries and development
committee of the El Centro Cham
Der of Commerce. DR.. Bacon based
this statement on articles which
have recently appeared in print on
Imperial Valley and particularly a
recent story in the Pacific Rural
Press from the pen of R. E. Rodgers
which carries the heading "Imper-
ial Valley Active and Very Promis-
ing'.
The article tells of the import
ance to this community of the
Boulder Dam and All-American
canal and states, 1.-THE whole val
ley is optimistic over this project
1t will certainly employ many men
that have been distressed by en-
forced idleness and will permit
local families to spend more money
for the 'buy now campaign. The
increased circulation of money will
certainly go far to relieve the past
feeling of depression. Evidence of
real hopefulness confrontS the OBJ
server in every part of the valley
Perhaps the most striking evidence
is the preparation of great tracts
of land in every part of the valley
for new alfalfa, cantaloupeS and
other crops
The writer continues, cit is not
able that the citrus orchards are
mostly in highly satisfactory
healthy producing condition, better
than we observed about three years
ago. Grapefruit has been the most
dependable cash crop during this
period. If, as seems correct, there
is to be a notable shortage of alfal-
ia in California making itself felt
very soon, Imperial Valley will sit
On top of the world instead of be-
ing in one of the lowest depressions
of the earth S dry crust; for stacks
of baled and unbaled alfalfa dot
the landscape in every part.''
DR.. Bacon states that the cham
Der staff sends regular reports to
the Pacific Rural Press on crop
conditions in Imperial Valley but
that this article is based on obser-
vations of the writer on a recent
visit here and that his remarks are
particularly encouraging as he has
viewed conditions through the eyes
of an outsider and naturally with
greater open mindedness than woulc
local resident. The chamber staff
is particularly pleased with the
concluding paragraph of the arti-
Gle and the encouraging report il
contains which is as follows: "It
seems to the writer that the I'M
perial Valley is in fully as good q
prospective position for the coming
years as any other section of Cal
ifornia, with numerous unique ad-
vantages over many others. -

The development of the Pacific
Northwest from wilderness to Its
present state has been accomplished
within the last century. The first
economic developments began almost
with its discovery. When Captain
John Meares, in 1888, was exploring
this region he declared that this part
of America could supply all the natives
of Europe with fine spars for their
ships. He proved true prophet. -Four
years later Captain George Vancouver
had to replace a foretop sail-yard and
said, ut was very fortunate circum-
stance that these defects were dis
covered in country Astounding with
materials to which we could resort:
having only to make our choice from
amongst thousands of the finest spars
the world produces"
The first settlers found that ex-
plorers had made wise observations of
the wealth in trees. When gold was
aiscovered in California, fine market
ear at hand was developed. In 1851
Jjaptain Daniel S. Howard of the
Leonesa arrived at Alki Point, looking

mercial history of Seattle was thi.

After the wharves in San Francisco
had been built, the market for sawec
lumber replaced that of the pile
market, and shipments were made tc
California, Hawaii, Australia anc
China.
Now lumber is shipped to all ports
of the world. One of the fascinating
sights from Vashon Island are the
lumber vessels and log blooms hauled
by tugs that pass on their continual
Journeys.
A new phase of forestry is the work
of the Civilian Conservation Corps
Many of the boys from the Island are
finding interesting work in the
furthering Of future lumber industry.
The Indians, who as recently as
1891 were on the warpath in the state
of Washington, are enthusiastic over
the conservation work. In their tribal
meetings they have declared this plan
to be one of the best ever set up by
the U. S. Government. One Indian
chieftain said, I'VE are in need and
our young men want work. You solve
both our problems and today we are
happy"
Another old chief said, 1--WE like to
live in camps. We know how to live
in the woods. Our families are happy
with us here
The early explorers in their widest
visions of growth in the Northwest
probably never thought of a, time
when the great forests of the region
would provide not only industrial oc-
cupation, but solve an economic and
social problem as well.
