The ambition of constructors has been to equal or exceed the Assuan dam on some of the government irrigation work now in progress in our arid regions. So recently that the matter has not heretofore had place in the American press, the operation of the Assuan dam has developed a new physical law of such structures, that must be taken into consideration by our engineers. Of course the weight of the impounded water is exerted upon the base of the dam. The mathematical theory heretofore held has been that this pressure will cause the dam to yield and crack horizontally. Therefore every device has been adopted to guard against these horizontal cracks. When that is done the structure has been regarded as proof against the thrust caused by the weight of water. When the Assuan dam was built these safeguards against horizontal cracking were increased so as to sustain an increase in the height of the dam, if that should be found desirable. The time came when this seemed necessary, and the Government had prepared for raising the masonry so as to raise the water forced the price up to $486 per acre. Some cases $486 per acre. Our Government has taken precaution to prevent land tion in the regions it is Indeed, it is still a question these precautions have overdone to such an extent make the actual settlement lands difficult. As soon as takes possession of the land begin paying the Government the water that is necessary gate his whole tract. On stead of 160 acres this is $400 a year. It is impossible average settler to put tract in a profitable and crop, like alfalfa, in one years. The land must and checked, at a cost than $7 per acre, and if prepare in that way fort first year, he will strain do it. Then the yield is diate, and his situation r he must have capital on larger amount than is homesteaders. What seems to be need off such speculation Egypt, and at the same settlers a fair chance is, that the Government make them pay only for they use. If the first y able to ditch, check, see gate twenty acres, make twenty acres.

When the Assuan dam was built these safeguards against horizontal cracking were increased so as to sustain an increase in the height of the dam, if that should be found desirable. The time came when this seemed necessary, and the Government had prepared for raising the masonry so as to raise the water level in the reservoir twenty feet. There was no reason why this should not be done, granting the theory to be true that masonry dams crack horizontally only. Such dams have a slope on the water side. It is now discovered that the pressure tends to crack this slope perpendicularly instead of horizontally, tilting the dam inward while the water, escaping through the perpendicular breach, finally destroys the whole structure. From this it is apparent that all of the protection of the Assuan dam from the horizontal cracking was thrown away. If the water pressure is sufficient to finally destroy the perpendicular integrity of the structure, there is no remedy except to tear it down and reconstruct it. Under these circumstances the engineers are searching for a site for a second dam, to impound the extra water, the weight of which they dare not add to the pressure that is already on the existing structure. The discovery of this new law of pressure by water upon masonry dams is timely, in the interest of the vast Federal irrigation works now in progress and planned in this country. The Assuan dam will serve as something more than a figure of speech, if it furnish an example in structure that will save our dams from destruction. Sir Benjamin Baker, the consulting engineer of the Assuan dam, says that it will take two years to either determine the integrity of that structure or begin the second dam which is under consideration. But he says philosophically, "I do not consider the postponement a bad thing, if thrust caused by the weight of water.

Government has taken every intention to prevent land speculation in the regions it is irrigating. It is still a question whether precautions have not been taken to such an extent as to the actual settlement of the difficult. As soon as a settler possesses the land he must pay the Government for water that is necessary to irrigate whole tract. On a home of 160 acres this amounts to one year. It is impossible for the settler to put his whole farm on a profitable and permanent like alfalfa, in one year, or five years. The land must be ditched checked, at a cost of not less than $7 per acre, and if the settler lives in that way forty acres his year, he will strain himself to afford. Then the yield is not immediate and his situation requires that he have capital on hand to a amount than is usual with leaders. What seems to be needed to shut such speculation as that in agriculture, and at the same time give settlers a fair chance for a start, that the Government should them pay only for the water use. If the first year a man is to ditch, check, seed and irrigate twenty acres, make him pay for four acres. As he extends his relations and irrigates more land, the water be paid for. When total acreage is under cultivation is made useful to him by irrigating let it be paid for. Of the freight. This condition of things led the growers to co-operate in the establishment of the Growers' Cooperative Agency, of which Mr. G. S. Thurman is manager. Now the growers are notified when to ship, what to ship and the quantity to be shipped, hence the market is supplied with only that which the market can take of fresh destructable products. Anyone can readily see the great advantage and benefit from this establishment. But the growers were not to be allowed the privilege of marketing their own products. The commission men declared a boycott, which could be broken only by an appeal by the growers to the court. This fight cost money and required perseverance, but these growers were loyal and patriotic, standing faithfully with one another and giving their worthy and gallant leaders united support. Through co-operation the California fruit growers have also broken the monopoly of the Armour car line in that state. The eastern markets were very much in the same condition as the San Francisco market. Fresh fruit shipments were often made at great loss from the fact that the growers had no one to attend to their business or to watch diligently prevailing conditions. The consequence was that the market became congested, fruit decayed and had to be dumped into the harbor. By united efforts agencies have now been established in the great market centers in the East. Through these agencies the growers are con- at the Government should them pay only for the water house. If the first year a man is to ditch, check, seed and irrigate twenty acres, make him pay for their acres. As he extends his irrigation and irrigates more land, the water be paid for. When total acreage is under cultivation is made useful to him by irrigation, let it be paid for. Of this would extend the time burning the revolving fund to government beyond the period by law. But if settlement of land is not made possible by favorable regulations, none of it ever be returned. The Egyptian land speculation has light thrown upon the value of irrigated lands in California. An estimate of Egypt has no gifts traces greater than that of California. If land, therefore, in can be sold under irrigation on $146 to $486 per acre, what good land under a better claim in California worth?—San Francisco Call. Results of Co-operation Co-Operative Journal, pub. in Oakland, recounts what California Fruit Exchange and growers' Co-operative Agency accomplished by uniting their efforts in a co-operative way. The result, which will be of great profit, fruit growers of the Pacific could only have been attained through co-operative effort. Fruit growers have overcome strong united power and influence of the commission men in Francisco. These commission men cared for the grower or his fruit. Their injudicious advertisements induced growers to ship large quantities of fruit to them indiscrimately. The result was that market became congested, the decayed and had to be dumped the bay. It sometimes happened that the growers did not realize fact that the growers had no one to attend to their business or to watch diligently prevailing conditions. The consequence was that the market became congested, fruit decayed and had to be dumped into the harbor. By united efforts agencies have now been established in the great market centers in the East. Through these agencies the growers are constantly and diligently informed as to prevailing conditions, prices, etc., and, on the other hand, the Eastern agents are kept posted with reference to shipments from California. If a shipment has been routed to New York, for instance, but the agents find that market in a congested condition, then the shipment may be diverted to some other more favorable point, these Eastern agents being also in touch with each other as well as with the headquarters in California. The Armour Car Line Company exacted exorbitant compensation from shippers in the way of charges for icing the cars, etc., having a monopoly in furnishing refrigerator cars. This monopoly was broken by the California Fruit Exchange by extending its patronage to the Santa Fe, which, encouraged thereby, placed fruit cars of their own on their lines. The result will be cheaper freight rates and larger profits to the growers. JOHN HAY The roster of the heads of the state department contains some illustrious names. Several Presidents—Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Van Buren and Buchanan—have filled that office. Many others, whose names have been conspicuously connected with the presidency—Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Everett, Marcy, Case, Seward, Blaine, Bayard and Sherman—have held the post.

John Hay was eminently worthy of that association. Few men of any day have had better training for the field of diplomacy than the dead state department chief possessed. As one of Lincoln’s private secretaries during the civil war period, he necessarily came in close contact with many of the celebrities of the day in all fields of endeavor. He saw politics from the inside in a time when politics was peculiarly diversified and exciting. Afterward, as a newspaper writer in high position, he had an opportunity to apply the knowledge which he had gained in that best of all schools which his country furnished. Subsequently, as a member of several of the legations in Europe, and then as ambassador to England, he learned diplomacy on its technical side with a thoroughness which had never been surpassed by any American, save perhaps, John Quincy Adams.
