ENGINE GOES IN
SERVICE TODAY
Equipment Passes Exhaustive
Tests Satisfactorily; Chief
to Reorganize Department
to Lower Rates

There are two fire engines down
at the police station tonight. The
city formally accepted the new Ford
Seagraves apparatus this afternoon
after exhaustive tests under the
direction Of the state fire insurance

er conducted. Every condition was
more than met by the new equip
ment, which still had a reserve ov-
er and above that required.
This equipment is the first of its
kind in the West and is as complete
and powerful as any at any price
for its capacity, officials stated. It
is new type Seagraves pumper,
mounted on q Ford chassis, pur-
chased thru the local dealers, the
E. G. Smith Motor Co. The truck
will carry complement Of 1000
feet Of regular 211k inch hose, 500
feet Of IL Inch hose, an auxiliary
tank, chemicals, ladders, lanterns,
etc.
The test required 31S hours. The
first was the delivery Of 500 gallons
Of water at a pressure of 40 pounds
pressure; the next ESQ gallons at
200 pounds and the third 125 gall
Ions at $50 pounds pressure. This
is sufficient, Mr.. Gravenslund, fire
chief, stated, to heave stream
over the highest building Kenne-
wick now boasts.
Mr.. Gravenslund stated this eve
ming that the fire department would
shortly be reorganized and every
effort made to comply with the
states rulings on fire fighting de-
partments, In order to secure re-
duction in fire incurance rates.

COUNCILMAN BUCKLIV RELATES
SCENIC WONDERS ON LONG TRIP

siderable time in Grand Junction
visiting relatives and old friends,
this being their first visit to that
city in nearly 25 years.
See Scenic Wonders
From Grand Junction they went
into the Jackson Hole country and
thence to Yellowstone National
Park, some time being spent in en-
joying the lavish scenery of this
most interesting place. Enroute a
stop was made at Teton National
Monument, also rated among the
scenic wonders of the west.
The trip then extended into Id
aho and thence to Salt Lake City,
and from that point back to Cali
fornia where numerous points of
interest in the northern and CEN
tral portions OF the state were Wis
tied.
Before returning to El Centro
Councilman and Mrs. Bucklin
stopped over in San Diego and had
ample opportunity to visit the eX-
position at their leisure.
California has splendid roads,"
the councilman said, and other
states are following its example, as
is the national government. Good
roads exist everywhere and makes
possible trips which are not only
recreational but educational. Peo-
pie who think it necessary to go
outside of the United States are
making a big mistake, if they have
not seen their own country first.
There is plenty to see here and
the finest Of facilities for seeing
it.
Our system of national parks is
one of the finest investments the
government has ever made and is
one Of the things which really OPP
crates for the direct benefit of the
people. They have only to go to
any of these parks to realize how
some of the money they contribute
is being spent"
Mr.. and Mrs. Bucklin, who re-
turned to Ell Centro last week,
make a trip Of this sort each year,
and are now looking forward TO
next years, which has not as yet
been planned as to itinerary
Imperial Valley press., 1935-09-30

Urging that all who can posi-
bly, Go so should make the fullest
use of the splendid roads which
carry the motorist wherever he
wishes to 60, ans praising the Ma
tional Park system as one of the
finest agencies of the government,
Councilman A. N. Rucklin today
gave The Press an account of
most interesting trip taken by him
and Mrs. Bucklin this summer.
Leaving here on July 8, bound
for their former home in Grand
Junction, Colo, they first visited
Grand Canyon, which neither had
seen before, and added their names
to the long list of those who have
viewed this great natural wonder.
Leaving the canyon they visited
the Painted Desert, a natural seem
ic wonder ranking with the canyon
the famous Aztec ruins. These
latter present one of the greatest
mysteries to the explorers and sci
entists, being the remains of a
/ lost people who once inhabited
towns and villages which are still
standing. Where the inhabitants
went, or when or why, are ques-
tions which have never been an
sWered and probably never will, the
councilman said.
Heading north from Arizona into
Colorado they saw the famous
moving mountain near Durango,
which has presented another puz-
zie to scientists, the mountain hay
ing moved q distance of several
yards in recent years.
The government is spending a
great deal of money in Colorado,
much of it in road work and in
opening up the scenic wonders of
that .tf,te. Mining, which was
formerly thriving IN the Durango
area and adjacent territory, is
coming back again after being dor
mant for several years and the
towns are showing renewed activ-
ity.

though the Dutch elm disease Is
caused by a fungus. It Is carried
from tree tc tree by insects. A
section Of the bulletin, beautifully
illustrated with drawings BY Eliza
beth Kaston, is devoted to the Eur
opean elm bark beetle, that tiny
imported insect that is blamed for
spreading the Dutch elm disease in
Europe and this country. Other
insects such as the native bark
beetle, may also be carriers, the
authors assert, but there IL not yet
sufficient proof to make any state
nent on the subject.
DR. Britton divides the pests of
eIms into three groups. There are
those that devour the leaves, such
as canker worms and elm leaf
beetles; those that suck sap, as the
aphids and scales; and the borers
including bark BEETLES and weevils.
Some of these may not be import
ant pests in themselves but may be-
disease carriers. The majority at
