Hewes Expresses
Satisfaction Over
Power Program

Satisfaction over recent develop
ments affecting the power program
of the Imperial Irrigation District
was expressed TODAY by Evan Hewes,
chairman of the district board
Not long ago we were notified
that the federal government had
authorized loan of nearly $3,000,-
600 to begin construction of our
canal power generating system. "
Hewes declared. Before that we
had been informed that the REA
had granted a loan of 100000 for
our rural identification develop
ment and now comes the news that
the United States circuit court of
appeals has not only denied the
Nevada California Electrical Securi-
ties company a rehearing in its
suit to prevent the district from
engaging in the power business but
this same decision strengthened the
original opinion of this same court
as to the constitutionality of the
1919 districts power act and legali-
ty of the contract entered into by
bilC siloOilCb lOl UllC Vi
equipment for the Brawley diesel
plant.
Our program is now in the hands
of the California Securities Com
mission for the approval of that
state body. When this is granted
the district will call for an election
to vote the necessary bonds to
carry our program through to COM
pletion.
IN connection with the bond
election one point stands out. The
bonds will be revenue bonds solely
and will in no way constitute a
lien against any lands within the
district.
They will be repaid solely from
the revenues obtained from the sale
of power and no ranch or other
valley property will be taxed single
cent to provide the funds necessary
to pay them off,

MILK DEALERS
GET WARNING

Persons selling milk in Imperial
county without adequate equipment
are subject to prosecution and fine
as provided by the California Agri-
cultural code. the county health de-
partment declared in warning is
sued Monday.
A tuberculin test of cows is not
sufficient preparation for the bus
mess of selling milk for human
consumption said Walter c. Mac
Donald. county milk inspector. In
order to be qualified to sell market
milk, the owner of two or more
fresh COWS must provide n proper
milk house and milking barn. and
adequate cooling and sterilizing
equipment. The dairy also must
meet other standards of the state
law and is subjected to regular in
spection by members of the county
health department under the super
vision of DR.. Warren F. Fox, county
health officer.
Sale or furnishing of even a small
quantity of milk illegally subjects
the seller to a possible fine of not
less than $25, said Mcdonald

Red Cross Launch
CAMPAIGN Against
Hazards in Home

THE Ell Centro Chapter of the
Red Cross launches a camraign 10
eliminate accident causing hazards
in the home today" Mrs. A. B
Hanson. chairman of the local
chapter, said SATURDAY.. "It is the
chapters purpose Mrs. Hanson
said. ito make the homes of this
community safe. Home accidents
are due to careleSsness, negligence
and lack of KNOWLEDGE and most
of them are preventable."
According to Mrs. Hanson mil
lions of people are injured in the
home each year Last year more
than $4,000 were killed and the
number permanently disabled by
accidents occurring in the home ran
into six figures. People do not
realize that the home is not safe"
Mrs. Hanson stated land it is the
purpose of this Red Cross program
to correct this erroneous belief, to
point out common and uncommon
home hazards and show how each
may be eliminated and to conduct
an actual inspection of the homes
of this community"
A program of this nature. Mrs.
Hanson pointed out, is of necessity
largely educational in character.
The Ell Centre chapter will cam
paign against disinterest and fal-
lacy through the medium of the
written and spoken word A COM
prehensive public speaking sched-
ule is being arranged in an inten-
sive effort to make children and
parents aware of the very real
danger which turks in the home
itself. The generous cooperation of
newspapers and various publica-
tions have been enlisted. Individu-
ais, civic and social clubs and busi-
ness groups are being contacted.
Many have already pledged their
aid. A number of national organ
izations have signified their will
ingness to help the Red Cross
minimize home accidents and the
close cooperation of the local
branches of these organizations is
anticipated.
The committee in charge of this
special program will be chairmaned
by Hugh l.. Keating. Other mem
'bers of the committee are Mrs. Mae
Hill, A. H. Maupin, E. A. Fitzhugh
and Phil Remington
This home safety campaign, it is
understood, will also include farm
safety and safety while at work
on the farm. Because of the in
accessibility of farms and the diff
ficulty of securing accident Stats
tics pertaining to them. little safety
pioneering has been done in this
direction.

CITRUS GROUP
HEARS TALK ON
RIVER WATER

Effect OF the agricultural use of
Colorado river water in the Los
Angeles area was discussed by DR..
w. P. Kelley at a recent meeting
of the citrus workers in the agri-
cultural extension service with the
staff Of the Riverside University
experiment station. said Frank G.
Beyschlag. farm advisors, who at
tended.
DR.. Kelly posnsed out that even
though the river water does con-
tain considerable salt its use will
not be harmful to the well-drained
soils in the area, particularly If
an excess amount of water is used.
He stated that in Imperial Valley
this water is not building up the
alkali content ON those FERNS that
are well drained and on which the
operators give sufficient attention to
proper irrigation penetration.
In discussing the comprehensive
citrus fertilizer experiments, Direc-
tor L. D. Batchelder and DR.. E. r.
Parker said that the highest yields
have been secured from nitrogen
supplied from the combination of
manure and commercial nitrogen
fertilizer Thus far in the expert
ments the use Of phosphate and
potash in addition to manure and
nitrogen has given no increase in
citrus production. Plots which re-
ceived no bulky organic matter.
such as cover crops, manure. or
straw. but received an adequate
supply of nitrogen from commercial
sources have maintained a salts
factory yield but it is coming in
creasingly difficult to get irriga-
tion district water or rain TO soak
into the ground on those plots
which receive no organic matter.
Visits TO the station by county
ranchers were planned and Beysch-
lag made tentative plans for a joint
melting Of Imperial and Coachella
valleys. Research of particular in
terest locally will be the alkali in
vestigations. fertilizer experiments,
the phosphates fertilization work
which will be of particular interest
to alfalfa and vegetable growers,
the pruning plots and root stock
experiments on grapefruit. oranges
and lemons.

Mattresses Sought
For Aid of Needy
In Imperial County

Fifty be'dsteads and mattresses to
be used in needy homes where acute
health problems exist. are request
cd by the State Relief Administra-
ton in Imperial county. The SRA
will send a truck to transport the
articles to headquarters and will
have the mattresses sterilized, said
w. S. Fitzer, head of the SRA.
In many homes several persons
are forced to sleep In one bed
when one person is suffering from
tuberculosis or some other disease,
F'itzzer said. The extra beds. he
declared, would be a big help in
preventing spread of the disease
to other members of the family.
IF the donors wish to have their
gifts used in the same locality in
which they live" said Filter. "the
SRA will be glad to arrange it,"
