Street Hypocracy
BY Dorothy Thompson

BY Dorothy Thompson
A hypocrite is one who tries,
BY attitudes which are not his
And what he thinks are harmless
lies
To seem much better than he is.
And following this foul deceit
He must adjure all deeds of sin
and school TO narrow ways his
feet
From primrose paths they
might be in.
He probably is bored. and yet.
For that ideal Of what he seems
He does what he need not regret
And proves. at least. he has his
dreamss
We praise the firm heroic smile
Or mad heartbroken punchinel-
los.
Yet chide the hypocrite for guile
Which makes him kinder to his
fellows.
And may he not, by practicing,
As singers their do-remi-fa's.
Achieve the long-affected thing.
And be much better than he
was?

Let us examine how business is
affected by a breakdown in our
intra-county travel system.
Most of us remember the heavy
rains in January. 1887 Even light
automobile travel was extremely
difficult for two or three days if
one ventured off the surfaced road
ways. Heavier automobile travel
and truck traffic was brought to q
virtual standstill for nearly a week.
Inquiries among business man in
one valley town on the second day
of this rainy spell disclosed some
interesting information. There was
a sharp drop in the volume of busi-
ness ranging from 60 to 100 per
cent. Itemized drops reported by
individuals included: Grocers, 60
per cent: service stations. IS per
cent: hardware, 80 per cent; imple-

both of wheat and barley, will be-
gin to harvest their crops, said
G.. j. SeuSs, manager of the 1mpe-
rial Valley Grain Growers, a CO.
operative association.
The harvest is not as late as
was anticipated at first, many
believing that the severe frosts in
January would delay the crop con-
siderably.
No damage was done by the heavy
winds of April 26 as the wheat
had not reached the stage where
there was danger of shattering.
The market for wheat is strong
at present, said Seuss, who stated
that those who market early will
have the advantage of higher
prices.

Fertilizing Frost Injured
Trees Requires Fine Care

It is the amount OF fertilizer
rather than any special kind which
should be considered in the care
of frost-injured citrus trees. ac-
cording to DR.. f. r. Parker. horti-
culturist from the University of
CALIFORNIA; citrus experiment sta
ton.
There is no evidence indicating
that frozen trees respond TO any
special fertilizer which is supposed
TO stimulate growth. Those materi-
ais customarily used in citrus or
ehards may be used but considera-
ton should be given to the amount
Damaged trees may be grouped
into two grades stated DR.. Parker.
The first group would include
these trees which are relatively
only slightly injured and the sec
ond group. those severely injured.
The first group may include trees
which have lost all or a part OF
their leaves but where the killing
of the branches is confined to the
most recent cycles of growth On
small tWigs Suckers on larger
wood are also anticipated but in
most cases they can be rather
readily controlled since they will
soon be shaded by the developins
foliage on the exterior Of the tree
Fruit may be set IN fair quantity
during the spring following the
freeze. Trees injured only to this
extent will require adequate nutri-
ents TO permit satisfactory growth
and fruiting
1T is our opinion that best tree
response will generally be obtain
ed when normal fertilizer appllca-
tions are made this year. Recon-
mendations may be obtained from

Imperial Valley Hay Growers as

This action was made necessary,
said Rov l. Wood. manager due to
the heavy volume of tonnage han

In order to obtain a favorable price
for the producers the association
found il imperative 10 sell directly
and has opened an office in Fl

purchasing the business formerly
operated by A. H. CaWood. CaWood
is in charge of sales in this area.
The association has also leased
property IL the Hynes area. Already
the organization has found it highly
profitable to sci directly instead OF

GOOD SEASON
FOR R RAISING
CHICKENS Seen

That 1887 promises to be an ex-
cellent year in which to raise
chickens and turkeys in the opinion
of Bill Newton. extension specialist
in poultry who was in the valley
this past week to conduct a series
of meetings.
In discussing the outlook for
turkeys, Newton pointed out that
improved conditions may be an
ticipated for 1887 A small crop is
indicated for this year, due to last
years disastrous market conditions.
There were 1886 per cent more
birds in 1886 than in 1885 and this
increase, coupled with the high
feed prices made 1886 an unprofit-
able one for turkey producers.
As a result, the crop promises
to be smaller this year and if the
grain yield over the country is
normal, as present conditions in
dicate, turkeys will be raised for
less money which points to higher
returns for the producer.
D Feed prices for poultry are way
out OF line for profitable production.
There was a 25 per cent increase
in hatch last year, but the hatch
this year will probably be about
20-25 per cent smaller, due to the
high cost Of feed. We expect Short
er egg production this year and
also a lower cost of production
which makes 1887 a good year in
which to raise baby chicks, parti-
cularly for egg production in the
fall and winter months"
Many California farmers, in fail
ing to raise poultry for their own
consumption, are making a mistake
in NeWlon's opinion.
Newton pointed out that the 1885

census report shows that 90 per
cent of all the farms in the United
States have chickens, but that in
California, only GIG per cent have
chickens which means that 38 per
cent of the farmers buy what eggs
and chickens they consume.
The $500 farmers who are buy
ing their eggs and poultry show
lack of business insight in this
respect, said Newton, There is a
place on the farm for poultry as a
sideline. 1t has been demonstrated
that few chickens, a COW, pigs

than the one who has all his eggs
