Forecasts of continued strong de-
mand for farm products indicate
favorable returns for Imperial coun-
ty farm products in the coming
season, Frank Beysesllag. farm ad-
visor, said Thursday after reviewing
data from the United States de-
partment of agriculture.
The present strong consumer de-
mand, he said. is encouraging be-
cause truck crop growers returns
often are in line with consumers
incomes.
Imperial Valley alone" said Bey-
schlag. "often has produced more
than the entire United States could
consume. at prices permitting a
profit to the growers. Vegetable
production in the nation this year
may exceed the record six million
tons harvested in 1896. In an Au-
gust publication, the bureau of agri-
cultural economics expected late
lettuce production to be one fifth
larger than last year.
An early report from Sacramento
according to Beyschlag, indicated
that fall lettuce was in generally
good condition. In spite of the
freeze last winter, Beyschlag re-
called, a higher than average yield
of 140 packed crates per acre was
obtained by valley lettuce growers
from a 10000 acre planting. The
prices were aided by the freeze
which eliminated shipments from
many competing areas. 1t also
spread out the maturing of the
1913 carloads shipped by rail.
"On the average" Beyschlag ad-
vised, "it is best to grow lettuce
only at time when good quality can
be produced Since it is impossible
to forecast price changes sufficient
ly far in advance. lettuce Should be
planted SO as to mature gradually
over as long period as is con-
sistent with the production of good
quality"
Heavier planting of fall peas is
indicated than was the case last
year in the Gilroy- -Hollister district
for the October harvest. The San
Jose harvest district decreased the
acreage in the September harvest
while the San Joaquin Valley plant

agricultural commissioner, was used
on camels thorn, white horse net
tie, Russian thistle and puncture
vine with satisfactory results.
Scattered infestation of morning
glory were treated with an arseni-
CAL Harrington's report set forth.
All Camel's thorn infeStations were
sprayed once in August to reduce
the area and density of the plant
growth. In most places, he said,
only scattered plants were found.
All infested places will be checked
and treated again this fall before
the plants go dormant. The work
will continue through September
and October.
Grasshoppers caused some dam
age to alfalfa and to early tomato
paintings. Harrigan said poison
bran is available to anyone wishing
to poison the pests. Application Tor
a supply of the poison must be
made to the agricultural commits
sioner's office in the basement of
the court house one day in advance
of the time it is to be used. The
day in advance is necessary because
supply is not maintained for use
at all times. The poison bran should
be scattered over all infected areas
even though the actual infestation
is light. This is necessary to kill
the adult hoppers before eggs are
deposited, the commissioner ad-
viSed.
Alfalfa shipments continued steady
throughout the month of August,
with 1887 tons moved to coast
markets. Supplies in storage yards
are below normal. Butterfly and
grasshopper damage was heavy,
Harrigan reported, resulting in the
loss of approximately one cutting
of hay.
The bulk of the flax harvest mov-
ed to markets and land is being
prepared for next years paintings.
Prices for milo were slightly lower
than last year but yields from early
paintings were good. Good yields

Officials Meet
Problems Facing
Public Schools

The POLLEN of supplying necess-
ary school rooms resulting from
the condemnation, last year, of Lin
coin school, has been overcome
without the necessity of school
bonds Guy Weakley. superintend-
ent of schoGols told members of
the Rotary club at the regular
Thursday luncheon meeting.
Mr.. Weakley was speaker for the
day on program arranged by John
Donohue. He spoke on various
phases of school work and plan
ming.
The problem of meeting school
requirements has been met, Weak
ley said, by active construction
during the summer. Additions have
been made, he explained, at the
high school as we'll as at Washing
ton and Wilson schools.
Conditions at the high school
and junior college, he declared
rapidly are becoming too congested
and need improvement The pay
as-you-go system is being salts
factorily used.
Weakley said he anticipates in
creased enrolment in the schools
this year, and urged that teachers
be given every encouragement
possible. He declared that apprecia-
ton of their work.. as in other
fields of endeavor, stimulates them
to increased effort. He also invit-
ed criticisms,
The modern-day educational me-
thods whereby children are tested
for intelligence and progress is be-
ing used here scientifically, he said,
which accounts for the highly sat-
isfactory manner in which the pu-
pills have been placed in proper
grades and groups.

The United States cannot guar

American people are willing to

said.
They are convinced that the ma

citizens abroad.
These observations were prompt
ed by criticism of President Roose-

from dangerous areas must remain
there at their own risk, and by the
operations of mysterious submar-
ines, surface warshipS and aircraft

stalemate on the Madrid front to-
day.
Bodies Uttered the country west
of Madrid. Attack and counter
attack for key positions, airplane
and artillery bombardments con-
tinued.
But in the four days not a gain
of,,importance had been made, ap-
parently. This meant. from the
Loyalist viewpoint, that SO far at
least the Nationalist effort to win
back territory gained in the recent
offensive had failed.
Fighting yesterday and today
centered at Hill $50. near Villanue-

The hill is one which the Loyal
lists lost several days ago. Since
then they have retaken and reloSt

cause it is the end of a dominant
