CHICAGO MAKES
BIDS FOR Sc
CONVENTIONS

CHICAGO, Nov. 26. UP)-The
first step in the plan of Chicago
leaders to bring Democratic and Re-
publican national conventions to this
city was taken today when the COM
mittee in charge tossed out hints of
$150000 guarantees fo" the con-
clave of each party.
1t was such a guarantee that
brought the two conventions here
in 1882, co-chairman Albert d. Las
ker pointed out at the committees
first meeting today. He announced
an effort will be made this year to
duplicate the pledge and revealed
plans have been formulated to start
a campaign among merchants, rail-
roads, hotels and restaurauteurS to
raise funds Immediately.
First objective of the committee
will be the Republican national COM
mittee meeting at Washington Dec.
16, Lasker said. At that time party
chiefs are to name the 1886 conven-
ton site.
He revealed one of the chief ar
guments to be presented to leaders
of both parties is the fact that Chi
cago, because of its central location
is within one nights ride by rail OF
6212 per cent of all delegates.
Chief opposition to the Chicago
bid is expected from ST. Louis, At
lantic City and Kansas City, Laskel
believed.

AWAITED ON
PARKING PLAN

City officials, city police and Cal
ifornia highway patrolmen await
instructions from the State High
way commission relative to the
enlargement of parallel parking
on main street, a state highway
from east to west city limits, ac-
cording to a check made of the
various groups Monday.
Phil Knights, city engineer, said
some local merchants opposed and
some favored parallel parking. Par
allel parking, he said. tends to
facilitate the movement of traffic
through town by the provision
of additional space but also cuts
down parking space. He said an
unofficial check led him to believe
more merchants opposed than fav-
ored the parallel type
The city of Ell Centro, the city
engineer said, recently received a
letter from the State Highway COM
mission in which it was pointed
out the city would probably be
jointly liable for damages in ac-
cidents resulting from cars backing
from horizontal parking spaces in
the case the street still was marked
for horizontal parking.
Captain Frank OsWalt of the
highway patrol said his organization
would do nothing about enforcing
the parallel parking law unless
asked to do so by the city.

REBELS IN BRAZIL ORDERED TO SURRENDER
TESTS ON ALFALFA GROWING
DISCUSSED BY FARM ADVISER

Results of tests conducted by
valley ranchers to determine pos
sible benefits to alfalfa from slow
irrigation on medium or hard land
where water penetration has been
a problem were told Monday by
George l.. Winwright, assistant
farm advisor. The results have
been uniform and in every instance
have shown ar increased yield from
irrigating with a slow head of water
during the winter months where
the level will permit this method
and an examination of the subsoil
has shown that penetration to at
least six feet in depth has not
been secured.
1t is doubtful if time can be
spent to any greater advantage on
anything connected with the grow
ing of alfalfa than in a careful
examination of the soil, to gain
proper penetration at this time
of the year while there is plenty
of cool weather ahead SO that slow
irrigation can be practiced with
out danger of scalding the crop,
Winwright said. Where penetra-
ton to depth of six feet or more
has been secured during the winter
months, quick irrigation during
the hot weather has in every case
been sufficient to keep up the
moisture content of the soil and
avoid the sharp decline in yield
which often follows the first or
second cutting.
Expert Tests Soil
Edlefson, soil expert from the
University Farm at Davis, spent
Imperial Valley press., 1935-11-26

two days in the county last June
and made soil-moisture examina-
tions on a number of alfalfa fields,
and in some cases found water
penetration of as little as 18 inches,
and a very short crop, while a sat
isfactory crop was growing on the
same land where water had been
held and greater penetration Sc
cured.
Apparently no effort connected
with growing alfalfa can give bet
ter returns than a careful examina-
ton of the subsoil at this time
of year to determine the moisture
content, and if penetration has
not been secured, irrigation to get
moisture down at least six feet
will pay good returns.
Fertilizer Tests
A number of tests using super
phosphate fertilizer on alfalfa have
also been conducted, but results
here have not been uniform. In
several tests no benefit at all were
apparent from applications vary
ing from $50 pounds of 18 per cent
superphosphate per acre up to 500
pounds per acre, while on other
ranches very outstanding benefits
resulted. A test conducted on the
L. J. Suchey ranch near Brawley
probably gave the most outstand-
ing result from the use of this fer
tilizer, with 250-pound applica-
ton per acre showing an increased
yield of four tons per acre above
the check during the first season,
and practically doubling the yield
on the check plot during the second
season.
