Of
REACTORS To
HELP HERDS

"Imperial county will certainly
benefit by any campaign which re-
moves reacting COWS from the coun-
ty,D states w. A. Scheniman, chair
man of the Ell Centro Chamber of
Commerce dairy committee. The
local chamber has been cooperat-
ing with other bodies toward the
effectuation of the plan of DR.. C..
u. Duckworth, assistant director of
the state department of agricul-
ture, which would result in the re-
moval of all COWS showing tubercu-
lin reactions.
II am impressed said Schen-
imam today, "by the report of DR..
l.. M Hurt. livestock inspector of
Los Angeles county, revealing that
Los Angeles county purchased $1,000
dairy COWS during the year 1898.
This means that one dairy COW out
of three in Los Angeles county was
replaced during that calendar year.
1t is significant that almost 10000
of these cows which Los Angeles
county bought are from without
California, and might have been
purchased in other California coun-
ties had tubercular free animals
been available
In commenting on these figures
DR.. Hurt states, cit would pay the
dairymen of other counties to clean
up their herds. 1t is regrettable
that California breeders have not
progressed further in the eradica-
ton of tuberculosis, since their
cows generally are preferable ex-
cept for the large percentage OF in
lection carried by some OF them. -
The Ell Centro Chamber OF Com
merce directors, particularly inter-
ested in dairying in this county,
have long pointed out that the Los
Angeles markets are right at the
door OF Imperial Valley if only the
dairy herds of Imperial county were
! tuberculosis free and Scheniman
representing that organization, has
! taken an active part in any pro-
i gram to so clean the county OF tu-
bercular reacting COWS. 1t is now
hoped that DR.. Duckworth will work
out a program for the entire state
! to eradicate tubercular reacting
cows and any such program will
have the endorsement of the FL
Centro chamber and other organ
izations interested in improving the
dairy situation in this county.

SCHEDULE Of
VALLEY TRAIN

A statement made to Ell Centro
Chamber of Commerce officers to-
day by John w. Donohue, district
freight and passenger agent of the
Southern Pacific company, indicates
that the official and the Ell Centro
personnel of the Southern Pacific
offices are doing everything possible
to have the morning train maintain
its schedule and arrive on time.
Donohue, in statement made to
Manager Hays of the Chamber of
Commerce, said, I'VE have been
handling, within the last few days,
an unprecedented amount of fast
freight and express matter. 1t was
presented to us for shipment and
we simply had to handle it, A re-
quest issued from my office yester-
day, and approved by the general
offices on the coast, has been made
of the train crews and those reSpon-
sible for the operation of the morn
ing train to the effect that every
effort will be made to haveit arrive
at Ell Centro promptly on time. Even
if this volume of freight continues
we expect to have this train reach
Ell Centre on schedule"
The Southern Pacific company,
Hays was informed in order to meet
the demands of the public, has
placed a tourist sleeper of the most
modern type on the night trains
running to and from Los Angeles.
This was done, Donohue explained,
to meet the demands of the public
for decreased transportation cost.
The cars used are the most modern
of their type and have been lately
run on the Empire Builder, one of
the crack trains of the continent.
These cars are so modern that they
include even shower baths.
Donohue also stated that the plac-
! ing into effect of a regular $500
round trip rate between hte cities
of Imperial Valley and Los Angeles
is also being considered to stimulate
winter travel to the valley from the
coast city. The Ell Centro Chamber
has been urging this rate for some
time and the matter, according tC
Donohue, is now receiving careful
consideration by Southern Pacific
officials.
1--WE want the people of Ell Centre
and Imperial Valley to know
through the chamber of commerce,
said Donohue today, that the Sou
thern Pacific company is making
every effort to maintain the right
kind of service and the right kind
of rates, which are what the people
of Imperial Valley require and de-
mand."

ROBERTS YIELDS
ON TRANSIT STAND
Tells Chillum Heights Citizens
He Is Reversing Views
on Double Track.

Reversing his previous stand. Peo-
pies Counsel William A. Roberts last
night told the Chulum Heights Citi-
oppose the double tracking of Ken
nedy street east of Georgia avenue
but he added he would continue To
oppose such double tracking west OF
Georgia avenue.
Roberts based his previous objection
on the large investment of capital
that would be necessary for inStalla
ton of the tracks and suggested that
a bus service reaching Takoma Park
via Fifth street, or some other street
lylng between Georgia avenue and
Third street, be installed.
The peoples counsel said he knew
the double tracking was 10 be laid
and that even then the street cars
could not carry the load from that
area He contended many citizens OF
that locality would not be benefited
by increasing the street car facilities
and that the solution lies IN extending
bus lines to the area.
The peoples counsel said he felt
transportation on the Takoma Park
line downtown could be speeded in the
morning by running expresses down
the present Eleventh street tracks. A
connection could be made between
Georgia avenue and Eleventh street by
laying tracks on New Hampshire ave-
nue. or some other street, he said.

OF the Northeast Washington Citizens
