on Feeder
Roads in Valley Made

Zone of a series of articles on
county roads by C. o. Hoober, farm
Bureau presidential. Note) ........
For three years the Imperial
County Farm Bureau has had a
committee studying the problem of
feeder roads. 1t has been given
considerable consideration by all
Farm Bureau directors. The sug-
gestions that follow contain The
best judgment of this body of
farm men and women on this
common problem.
l. We urge development and
adoption of a network OF feeder
roads Of all weather surfacing to
connect with our present state
highway system. This network to
bring all-Weather roadS as close
to every farm as possible. Study
of this phase shows that such a
network totaling about 300 miles
can be laid out so that no farm in
the irrigated area will be more
than 2 or 3 miles distant. We
cannot expect to improve and
surface all the 1642 miles of coun-
ty roads at once.
2. This network of feeder roads,
we suggest, be set up and adhered
to as a long time project of five
or ten years. That this network
be confined to the irrigated area
and include improvement in the

Auction Philosophy
BY ID. L. ZINN

Folks thirty five million dollars is lot of money
Twenty three years long fight for canal and power
and what bitter fight-and still not through
fighting and don't think the bidders through bid
ding Besides it isn't quite proper to sell on the first
bid The public always thinks it is a set up of some kind
What should do in my opinion, is get good engineers
to estimate in dollars possible what this canal
power will be worth to forty year period; then
talk turkey to the buyers for must remember
the demand for electricity is just beginning and will in
crease steadily Don't get excited and "sel pig in
poke" the old saying goes look things carefully
Remember folks may have competition but we will
be the only raising power in our own yard.
The rest of em have to bring the power in from many
miles away. There may be leak in the lines but
have been told the reason rates high is be-
cause it cost much to transport power so far Why
should we on the ground floor worry? Keep up your
bidding boys the old Auconeer waiting at the switch
the ground floor I'll be seein you.

Bard district. at least, of a road
from Highway 80 to Imperial.
3. Federal money is being appro-
priated each year for constructing
feeder roads. We believe, what
ever sum is apportioned to Impe-
rial county should go into perma-
nent construction on some part of
this network. We recommend that
way be devised to devote some
part of Imperial County's road
revenues to this permanent con-
struction, even though III the be-
ginning such appropriation is
small.
4. Three years ago Imperial Ccun-
ty Farm Bureau Directors recon-
mended the consolidation of the
five road districts under one di-
recting head. We believed then
and our study since has confir.led
the opinion, that it would result
in economy in the purchase and
use of equipment, and over a Pc
riod of years, improve our ROADS
more uniformly and speedily.
5. We urge the use of present
rights of way so that we may get
the most miles improved for the
money expended. Getting our peo-
pie out of the dust and mud is
the objective of this road develop
ment and not the building OF
speed thoroughfares. Opening new
rights of WaV uSuallV is more cX
pensive than improving present
roads.
We submit this study and recon-
mendationS to the consideration
OF all Imperial Valley residents.
/ We invite their aid in getting
something done so that as speer-
lily as possible we may dig our
selves out of the dust anu mud
whenever and wherever We find
it necessary to travel in the valley
for business or pleasure.
