BAPT|STS To
CONVENE HERE

Ell Centre is definitely to be the
meeting place of the Southern CAL
ifornia Baptist convention in May
1885, according to Rev. Carl C.
Harwood. pastor of the local Bap-
tist church, who returned from the
Baptist convention held in Bakers
field Saturday and reported to the
Ell Centre Chamber of Commerce
that the members of the conven-
ton had pledged themselves to
meet in El Centre in 1885. River
side was chosen for the 1884 con-
vention as it will be the turn of
the central portion of the district
to have the meeting of that year.
There were 600 members in con-
vention at Bakersfield and Rev.
Harwood states that there will be
at least that many delegates at the
1885 convention and, with the eX-
ira visitors who attend, a total of
1000 persons may be expected.
These visitors represent ITO Bap-
tist churches in Southern Califor-
mia and missionaries from all parts
of the world.
This assures Imperial Valley of
two important conventions in the
spring of 1885, stated M. o.
Simms, president of the tourist and
convention bureau of Imperial VAL
ley, today. 1.-The reserve officers
of California have also pledged
themselves to support Ell Centre for
their 1885 convention, and will meet
here shortly before the Baptist
group will gather. Chambers of
commerce in cities which have
many conventions have estimated
that each convention visitor spends
$40 per day. While a visitor in Ell
Centre might not spend as much
as one in larger city, we can be
sure each will spend SIS per day.
This brings to Ell Centro $4,000
for the four days in which these
visitors will be here, and this money
will circulate so every business will
get some of 1t.
"In addition Simms contin-
ued, "every convention visitor is
an opportunity searcher and does
a little scouting of his own. Many
wonder If. perhaps, he could not
better his lot by moving to another
community and many cities which
have specialized in conventions have
built up their populations through
convention visitors who have be-
come permanent residents. We are
not going to stop at two conven-
tions but hope to make 1885 the
beginning of a series of conven-
tions which will establish Imperial
Valley as one of the most popular
convention spots in Southern CAL
ifOrnia ,, 4.

GIVEN
BREAK IN NEW
COSMOS BOOKS
Briton Writes of Universe
for Ordinary Class of
Readers.
BY DAVID DIETZ
Scripps-Howard Science Editor

Sir James H. Jeans, brilliant Brit
ish astronomer, has conferred a
favor upon the world of intelligent
laymen, by writing d series of books
designed to explain in popular Ian
guage the newer views Of science
about the universe.
First came THE Universe Around
U.s. setting forth the new views of
astronomers upon the subject OF
cosmogony, the structure, origin,
age, and future of the universe.
Next came 1.-THE Mysterious Uni
verse" in which, among other
things, Sir James sought to develop
the philosophical implications of
modern cosmogony and to set forth
some of his ideas about God.
Departing from mechanistic views
of the nineteenth century which
pictured God as the engineer Of a
mechanical universe, Sir James de-
picted a God who was essentially a
mathematician.
The next book by Jeans for popu-
lar consumption was THE Stars in
Their Courses" This was an extern
sion of a series of radio talks which
he had given in Great Britain for
the British Broadcasting Company.
1t represented a brief popular sur
vey Of the facts of astronomy and
was richly illustrated with many
fine photographs.
The fact that all of these books
leaped into the best-selling class
was proof enough that the world of
intelligent laymen was not unap-
preciative of jeans services. Now he
has added fourth book to the list
THE New Background of Science"
1t is published by the Macmillan
Company at $3.50.
I can say at once what I have
said upon other occasions of Jeans
previous books, namely, that no lay
man can consider himself abreast

Drouth Greatly Damages
the Trees of Minnesota
Insects Are Increasing Very Rapid
ly Because of Favorable Condi-
lions Prevailing

The tree population of Minnesota
is being seriously affected by in
sects which have rapidly increased
because of the continued drouth
according to Grover Comet, state
forester. Most of the insect injur-
les now common with trees can be
traced to this cause. The vitality of
the trees has been decreased by
the long dry spell which has proved
favorable to the increase of the
damaging insects in large numbers.
''The season is largely past when
these pests can be combatted yet
much can be done this year to pre-
vent the spread and to reduce out
breaks that may occur another
year." Mr.. Comet said. when it is
noticed that a tree is dying either
from insect affects or other diseases
or injuries" he continued, lit is too
late to save the tree which is real
ly dead for some time before any
signs become evident. Insects and
tree diseases are always present in
forests and when conditions are
most favorable an outbreak of in
sect ravaging may come at any
time. Insects multiply very rapidly.
Oaks, red and white, have been
|conspicuously affected. Trees in
yards and boulevards may be pro-
tected partially from insect attack
by ample fertilization and watering
so that the vitality and growth may
be maintained. .--.
Where a few limbs are affected
the tree might be saved by cutting
off these limbs below the dead point
and burning them. Any dying trees
should be Immediately removed
from the yard, boulevard, woodlot
or forest, and cut into wood or peel
ed that the insects may be Destroy
ed which are Matching and spread
ing to other trees. Added care is
necessary in heavily pastured lands
or on dry exposed slopes. Woodlots
should not be pastured too heavily
and a well stocked stand should be
kept to shade the trunks, limbs and
ground All slow growing shrubby
trees shiuld be thinned out. -:
I'm certain portions Of the state
reports state that trees have lost
most of their leaves, especially
birch, popular and Eastwood. The
birch damage is caused by the birch
leaf skeletonizer and occurs so
late in the. summer that as q rule
lit will not kill the trees. The best
remedy is mixed forest so that the
epidemic cannot spread too rapidly.
"The defoliating of the poplar
and Eastwood has been done most
ly by forest tent caterpillars. The
damage has been done, the cater.
pillars have gone to rest and soon
