Compared with most of the westreserves this is small. But the wiland of Porto Rico is only a fewthree-quarters the size of Connection and consequently offers no room f...
large reserve.
The Luquillo reserve was set up from certain public lands in Porto Rico which were formerly the property of Spanish government. It is joined by private holdings and also to seize extent by lands the title to which now vested in the Insular government which is possessed of all lands not served by the Federal government for June 30, 1903. The whole require within which the reserve lies never been surveyed or accrual mapped,and the boundaries between the private land have pushed their cings as far up the mountain sides was profitable for them go,and helped themselves more or less whatever timber they needed in the accessible forest beyond.The depredations have not been on whale whole,very serious owing to the local character of the forest and the ficulties of transportation,but the act definition of the line between reserve and the adjoining private owners is a pressing need.
To secure information concerning present conditions and a basis for commensions to the Insular government for a future policy,Dr.John Glifford was sent by the Bureau of Esty.in the summer of 1903.to make examination of the reserve.He feat that only about two thousand acres are for lands unclaimed by private ownand half of this is in mountain paddl and palm lands,s so that there are at least ten thousand acres of productive time.Nevertheless,the whole reserve stn in an important relation to the econic welfare of the people who live it,and the benefits of its establishment will be increasingly manifest as it goes on.

PORTO RICO
FOREST RESERVE
Characteristic Tropical Forest and the Uses to Which It Can Be Put
RESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE
WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 20, 1904.
At one of our national forest reserves in Porto Rico is a fact of very few people in the United States aware. Yet both in the extraordinary variety of botanical species which its forest contain and in the uniqueness and novelty of its key this reserve stands second to those in our western states, it has the unique distinction of being the only tropical forest which country owns on this side of the Luquillo forest reserve was created by presidential proclamation in July, 1903. It embraces some 65,000 acres of land in the eastern and mountainous part of the island, shared with most of the western trees this is small. But the whole area of Porto Rico is only about four quarters the size of Connecticut consequently offers no room for a reserve.
Luquillo reserve was set aside certain public lands in Porto Rico were formerly the property of Spanish government. It is joined private holdings and also to some extent by lands the title to which is rested in the Insular government, is possessed of all lands not relied upon by the Federal government beginning June 30, 1903. The whole region and the lowlands swept by floods after every heavy shower.
What the value of the reserve will be as a source of timber supply is more or less problematical. Mahogany, if ever present in the forest, as seems probable, has been entirely exterminated, and the cigar-box cedar is also practically gone. Valuable woods remain, but the essentially tropical character of the forest, in which a great number of species contend with one another for possession, makes the problem of management a very difficult one. "Weed trees" abound, and there is no uniformity of forest growth. Individuals of the same species occur scattered sparsely and irregularly through the dense forest, and it is an extraordinary fact that within so narrow a range as the island affords certain kinds which in some places grow to be large and beautiful timber trees elsewhere exist as shrubs.
The best of the forest in the reserve is that found in the fertile gorges, ravines, and coves from 500 to 2000 feet above sea level, where the trees are protected from the constant winds. There are four leading timber trees—the tabanuco, with a wood very like our sycamore, the laurel sabino, which would grade in the market with yellow poplar, the ausubo, comparable with black walnut, and the guaraguao, similar to red cedar.

PROF. COOK ON PUMPING WATER
Shows Upper-Valley Irrigators How Money Can be Saved by Consolidation and Use of Electric Motors
Prof. Cook writes as follows in regard to a matter of interest to irrigators in this valley:
The plan which Mr. Adamson presented at the late Pomona-Claremont Club meeting is one which all our people where much pumping of water is carried on will do well to consider.
The dearth of water should make us all keenly alive to the necessity of the fullest possible water development and conservation, and the utmost economy in securing and using the water. Mr. Adamson considers the region from Ontario to San Dimas, including the latter but not the former. Mr. A. finds that it costs now over $300,000 to pump the 750 miner's inches that are now being pumped. This expense would be cut right in two in the middle, if the whole was consolidated, and a steam plant using crude oil was built, and electric motors used. Mr. A. finds that a plant can be installed for $100 per miner's inch of water. Mr. Chase, president of the Temescal water company, who has had an extended experience concurs in all these figures. He says the distribution of the power from the central plant will cost about half as much as installation of the plant itself. Mr. Adamson says that the present individuals and companies could well afford to throw all their present
Luquillo reserve was set aside to contain public lands in Porto Rico were formerly the property of Spanish government. It is joined private holdings and also to some extent by lands the title to which is created in the Insular government, is possessed of all lands not reclaimed by the Federal government between June 30, 1903. The whole region in which the reserve lies has been surveyed or accurately led, and the boundaries between private and public holdings areague and undefined. In practice agriculturists to whom the private belong have pushed their clearances far up the mountain sides as it profitable for them to go, and have allowed themselves more or less to ever timber they needed from accessible forest beyond. These relations have not been, on the one hand, very serious, owing to the tropic character of the forest and the difficulties of transportation, but the definition of the line between the lake and the adjoining private own a pressing need.
Secure information concerning conditions and a basis for regulations to the Insular governor for a future policy, Dr. John C. Hudson was sent by the Bureau of Forensics in the summer of 1903, to make an announcement of the reserve. He found only about 20,000 acres are forest unclaimed by private owners, half of this is in mountain peaks palm lands, so that there are only a few acres of productive timber without the benefits of its establishment and increasingly manifest as time goes on.
To the natives the region emerald in the reserve is little known. A small wilderness of serrated mountains, tropical forest, and rushing streams, concerning which most of fantastic fables find current, covers a large part of the Sierra Lequoia, a mountain mass separating the mountains of the rest of island by the valley of the Loiza, largest river in Porto Rico. One speaks, El Yunque, is the highmountain of the island, with an altitude of some 3,300 feet. Upon the own slopes of these mountains, face the sea, the westward-trading winds pour an enormous outburst, the heaviest in the island. In 1902 the total was almost 142 acres. This rainfall is well distributed throughout the year. In the highmountains it is rare for twelve pass without some rain. As a heavy, drenching showers alter with bright sunshine. The relative violent fluctuations in the rivers, which often leap into impassance with most of the western waters this is small. But the whole area of Porto Rico is only about four quarters the size of Connecticut consequently offers no room for a preserve.

Fine Stallions
Two imported stallions, which are pronounced the best horses of their kind ever seen in this vicinity, have just been purchased and brought here by local stockmen. One is the Belgian stallion Omer, 6 years old, bought by a stock company composed of Fred L. Bixby of Long Beach, W. T. Newland, O. Ater, Thomas Talbert and E. Talbert of Santa Ana. The animal was bought for $6000, said to be the highest price with a single exception ever paid in America for an imported draft stallion. The animal weighs 2450 pounds and has won in competitive exhibitions first prizes at the recent World's Fair and at the International Livestock Exhibition at Chicago in 1903.
The other stallion was bought by James McFadden of Santa Ana for $4000, is 3 years old and weighs 2050. It is the Percheron stallion Violon, winner of prizes and medals both in the United States and abroad. Both animals were sold through the agency of McLaughlin Bros. of Los Angeles.
Thomas Strain has invented a new automatic orange grader and distributor which is said to be ahead of any machine of its kind on the market. It gives an excellent grade and does not bruise the fruit. If the fruit comes out of the machine faster than it can be handled it is carried back to the starting point inside of the same belt. The machine has been patented and has a large number of good points over every machine that has been placed on the market. Mr. Strain now has the machine in operation in his packing house but is not manufacturing it for the trade.
For Thin Babies
Fat is of great account to a baby; that is why babies are fat. If your baby is scrawny, Scott's Emulsion is what he wants.
The healthy baby would be cut right in two in the middle if the whole was consolidated, and a steam plant using crude oil was built, and electric motors used. Mr.A finds that a plant can be installed for $100 per miner's inch of water. Mr Chase president of the Temescal water company, who has had an extended experience concurs in all these figures. He says the distribution of the power from the central plant will cost about half as much as installation of the plant itself. Mr Adamson says that the present individuals and companies could well afford to throw all their present machinery away and adopt this new scheme, in view of the great saving Yet without doubt many could sell present pumps and engines at quite a figure Surely if we could raise easily $35,000 or $40,000 for our telephone plant, then we shall find no difficulty in raising the $115,000 necessary to equip this consolidated plant, especially if people can be made to realize the fact that this would bring a saving of $150,000 the first year There is another advantage that will come from this new enterprise which is of no mean dimensions, and which will touch nearly every person in the community whether he is a user of water or not I refer to cheap lighting and heating We are now paying 15 cents for light power whereas under the new arrangement we could get it easily for 5 And each householder who would take both light and heat could reduce this to three cents.
Mr Chase, in writing of the Temescal company says: "The water in 1900 was raised by compressed air, in 1901 by a combination of steam gasoline and electricity, in 1902 chiefly by electricity but purchased chiefly at meter rates. In 1903 and since, solely by electricity, the company owning its own electric plant The cost per miner's inch for each twenty-four hours was in 1900,$ .3896; in 1901,$ .2958; in 1902,$ .2386; while in 1904 it is costing only$ .1471.Mr Chase suggests that with the best pumps and oil at the present very low rates even these figures would be discounted Surely no wise community will delay a moment to act with a proposition of this kind staring them in the face We are proud of our cheap telephone.I believe we shall soon be much prouder of our greater saving in this line of a local central electric pumping heating and lighting plant.

FOR THIRD Babies
Fat is of great account to a baby; that is why babies are fat. If your baby is scrawny, Scott's Emulsion is what he wants. The healthy baby stores as fat what it does not need immediately for bone and muscle. Fat babies are happy; they do not cry; they are rich; their fat is laid up for time of need. They are happy because they are comfortable. The fat surrounds their little nerves and cushions them. When they are scrawny those nerves are hurt at every ungentle touch. They delight in Scott's Emulsion. It is as sweet as wholesome to them.

Laurel District Out
Judge West issued an order in Superior Court this week, on application of D. J. Parker of Los Alamitos, releasing Laurel grammar district from Las Bolsas Union High School District. Laurel was made a part of the union district by order of the board of supervisors in September, 1903, and Parker in making application for release asserts fraud was perpetrated in securing the names of trustees to the petition asking inclusion, and that the supervisors exceeded their authority in making Laurel part of the district. Judge West finds that the board acted illegally, sets aside its order and declares Laurel to be no part of the high school district. The decision will terminate months of legal wrangling over the status of the district.
