SUBSOIL TESTS
SHOW BENEFITS
TO HAY CROPS

A test of deep subsoiling conduct
ed on the w w. Bennett ranch near
Calexico shows splendid benefits to
the yield of alfalfa this year, es-
pecially on the harder land. One
particular 80-acre piece, which had
been in alfalfa four years, had Civ
IN an average yield of two tons per
acre per year for the first three
years, but has yielded four tons
since January l, 1886, following sub
soiling to depth of 80 inches and
with six-inch mole which caused
the ground to crack thoroughly.
It is now planned to carry this
stand through another year, al
though it would not have paid to
carry it further without subsoiling
This land shows water penetration
to a depth of four feet at this time,
where it had been barely possible to
get penetration of more than one
foot before subsoiling.
Another very interesting result
from subsoiling was. on a new stand
where alfalfa was seeded last fall.
A field of 10 acres was seeded,
but stand was secured from the
first seeding of only 40 acres OF
this piece. Considerable alfalfs
showed up on the other 10 acres.
and while sufficient young plants
started, enough of them were killed
at the first irrigation so that il
was necessary to reseed.
After seeding this 70 acres twice.
the land was subsoiled and the bet
ter water penetration following this
treatment apparently carried down
enough alkali SO that a very good
stand was secured and the yield re
sulting has given an average of 1850
bales per cutting on the 70 acres so
far this season, while the yield or
the 40 acres has average $50 bales
per cutting.

HEALD FAVORED
TO WIN COAST
COUNTY'S VOTE

San Diego betting commissioners
are offering odds that Elmer Heald
will be the nominee of the Republi-
can party for congressman from the
twentieth district, according to a
message received this morning by
Clarence B. Smith, chairman of the
Heald For Congress committee,
from Glenn Tucker who is manag-
ing Heald's campaign in San Diego
county.
"The commissioners have it fig
ured out that there are 27,000 Re
publican votes in San Diego"
Tucker told Smith over the tele-
phone, land they do not concede
Sample more than 5000 of that
total, making Heald 2 to l shot
to carry San Diego. The commits
sioners report no Sample money in
sight where there are plenty willing
to back their belief that Heald will
be the nominee"
1--WE are greatly encouraged by
this report" Smith said. "Of course
we know that the betting men may
be wrong-they went wrong on Joe
Louis against Schmelling, for in
stance, but they usually have things
pretty well figured out and their
opinion ties in with our own-that
the intensive campaign Heald has
carried on in San Diego county is
bound to be successful"

Americas manhood and wo-
manhood must be delivered from
economic slavery.
It might not be amiss at this
time to recite briefly some of the
highlights OF Ed Izacs background.
Ed. v. Izac was born in Cresco,
Iowa, A years ago. His father,
born in Alsace in 1841, came to
Iowa as a youth and later engaged
in the manufacture of farming i'm
p.ements. His mother, born in
Philadelphia of German parents,
came West with them in 1853 in
a covered wagon.
Much of his grammar school
education Izac received in Iowa,
later graduating from high school
in South st. Paul, Minnesota. In
1911 he was appointed from Chi
cago to the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis, graduating
with the class of 1915.
During the World war he was
aboard the U.S.S. President Lin
COiii WliCil IL Wdo bOI ptQOGQ ny lIlS
German submarine U-90. Aboard
that submarine he was taken, a
prisoner of war, to Germany. After
many fruitless attempts to escape
with information of great value to
the Allies, he was finally success
full.
For his service he was acclaim
ed the outstanding Naval hero Of
the war and Congress conferred
on him the Congressional Medal
of Honor, France made him a
member of the Legion of Honor
and Italy decorated him with the
Croce di Guerra.
For several years after the war
he served as Director of Munitions
at the Washington Navy Yard, but
i'll health resulting from wounds
and privations suffered in Ger
many caused his retirement from
active duty in 1921, at which time
he moved to San Diego.
