Fortier, of the Irrigation Investigations of the United States Department of Agriculture, at the State Farmers' Institute at the University of California. At the present time it is quite generally admitted that the one essential for the betterment of agriculture in California is the extension of the irrigated area. A more general and more skillful use must be made of the water which flows past the dry farms on its way to the ocean. In the few minutes of my time that remain, I cannot do better than point out a few of the obstacles that lie in the way of such progress. The dry farms in California are located in the wrong place. They now occupy the valley lands that should be irrigated, and the foothills and higher mesas that should be dry-farmed, are either non-productive or devoted to grazing purposes. In the states of Colorado, Utah and Montana, farmers would not be content with the meager returns resulting from the cultivation of valley land in its dry state. They invariably make use of the deep soil of the upper mesas which are located above the highest canal for the production of winter wheat. These mountaineers who strive to shield their crops from the effects of high altitudes and killing frosts cannot understand why their friends in Central California, where the climate is so favorable, continue to devote several million acres of their best land to the production of grain in Here then is to be found cational work which, if carried on, may prove a benefit to the state of California devolves on the progress of the agricultural schools and the department of agriculture of the general government. Strate to the farmers of northern California the yields resulting from a scitation of crops, the advantage versified farming and, about value of water when rightly A BROAD PROBLEM. Men who consider only gineering features of irrigation apt to take a one-sided view reclamation of arid and lands. While everyone must the importance of irrigation tures, yet it is nevertheless these are but a means to an end. At one end of irriterprises are the water storage reservoir, the can other end should be found harvests, prosperous he highest class of citizens are urging the breaking big farms of the Sacramento but if the old families are placed by an undesirable foreigners, who would well change? Here is another those who love California. be stated in a single sentence the big farms are broken when a stream of water is to several thousand small to it that the right kind of purchase and settle on these Telephone Main 55 Wines, Liquors and Cigars But the people who live in other states fail to comprehend conditions as they exist here. It is from necessity and not from choice that the farmers of California are raising wheat on 2,000,000 acres and selling it for a trifle above the cost of production. Dependent as they are upon the rainfall of winter, they cannot do better. Before the profits can be increased there must be a radical change in the mode of farming and an artificial supply of moisture secured to nourish the crops during six months of a rainless summer. A change from dry farming to irrigation can be readily made when the land is held in quarter sections or less, provided the water supply is abundant; but when the size of the farms include estates of 20,000 acres, the task is more difficult. The large size of the farms is accordingly one of the obstacles which stands in the way of irrigation development. In the course of time this obstacle will be removed. The proprietors of large estates in central California will be forced either to sell or to irrigate. The yield of grain on the dry farms is decreasing so rapidly that the profits will soon appear in red in the farmers’ ledger. In 1884 the Montezuma district, comprising about 60,000 acres in the Sacramento valley, produced on an average 20 sacks of wheat, weighing 138 pounds to the acre; in 1905 the yield throughout the same section averaged four and one-half sacks, weighing 122 pounds. Another obstacle which retards the upper mesas which are located above the highest canal for the production of winter wheat. These mountaineers who strive to shield their crops from the effects of high altitudes and killing frosts cannot understand why their friends in Central California, where the climate is so favorable, continue to devote several million acres of their best land to the production of grain in which there is little or no profit. The only proper standard future progress in irrigation measured is by the success farmer, the fruit raiser, stockman, who make use of increase their annual income the soil. If they are hard prosperous, then it may be granted that the entire state wise prosperous. On the hand, if they are unsuccessful can be little connected with tion of which we shall care. If I am right in the belief future prosperity of California pends mainly on irrigated nature and that irrigated age depend upon the farmer, should not overlook the importance a class. It would be incumbent upon the state upon every influential citizen state to endeavor to remove the obstacles which threaten feat the best efforts of the public class. The state can greatly aid rural communities in irrigated by an early, just, and final administration by which the prized waters may be equituted to those entitled to use, and it can make adequate vision for the acquirement of in unappropriated waters. It would also seem that both the state and the nation sum part of the expense of on the large number of expired farms. In 1884 the Montezuma district, comprising about 60,000 acres in the Sacramento valley, produced on an average 20 sacks of wheat, weighing 138 pounds to the acre; in 1905 the yield throughout the same section averaged four and one-half sacks, weighing 122 pounds. Another obstacle which retards progress in irrigation can only be overcome by educational means. It would be a waste of money to conduct water from the foothills of the Sierras to a farm unless the proprietor or tenant is willing to use it. Again, if the use is to prove beneficial, it is important that the water be skillfully and intelligently applied. It is too much to expect that the farmer who has raised wheat or grain-hay for 25 years and trusted to the season's rainfall, will take kindly to gum-boots and an irrigator's shovel. And it is difficult for the farmer to change his methods of farming which he has pursued for a lifetime, it is by no means easy for his boy. The boy who has been accustomed to do things on a large scale, plowing and seeding with a 10-mule team and harvesting with a steam thresher, is apt to become discouraged by the more arduous and difficult tasks of the small irrigated farm. We cannot wonder that such men decline to irrigate their farms unless abundant proof is presented that it would be to their advantage to make so radical a change.

By this change the gainer in many ways would seem to be just and on the part of the state to end the extension of irrigated nature by contributing liberty every agency that has for it the prosperity of the farmer. when is to be found an eduwork which, if successfully, on, may prove of lasting to the state of California.

The reason why has been frequently told, but seldom more effectively than by William H. Simpson, who writes as follows in the Pacific Monthly for January: "It does seem rather odd to give shining twenty-dollar gold pieces [just from the mint and wanted by everybody] for dry air, warmed by a genial sun to the right temperature. Air is supposed to be one of the few things that anybody may have for the asking—a commodity entirely outside dominion of the trusts; which cannot be bottled up and sold over the counter. Yet many wise financiers are willing and glad to pay one dollar for the soil and three dollars for the azure blue above it, out in California. "Let us try to find the reason for this strange reversal of the usual values. "Why did you come to California? Why did your next door neighbor come, and the pleasant friends across the street, and the acquaintances in the adjoining block? "In the last analysis it was because of a more perfect climate. Note the use of the comparative. There is no flawless climate anywhere. But in California, where every month is June the weather conditions are more near ideal than in any other of Uncle Sam's United States of America.

Note the use of the comparative. There is no flawless climate anywhere. But in California, where every month is June the weather conditions are more near ideal than in any other of Uncle Sam's United States of America. The scientists who manage the weather bureau can glibly tell just why mountains and desert and trade-winds have here combined to produce a climate which is nearly 100 per cent pure. They can explain why this same section is both warm in winter and cool in summer. What you and I are more interested in is the unusual fact itself, not the why and wherefore. For every person who came to California because of gold discoveries, or sordidly to make money, or as a restless adventurer, ten persons came because they were in love with the weather. And this is not said in disparagement of the marvelous material resources of the state." Pawning a Bank Book. The pawning of the wedding ring has become a pathetic commonplace to those who are familiar with police court and coroner's court stories or with the private petitions for help of the deserving and undeserving poor. But we confess that with the Westminster magistrate we have never heard before of pawning bank books. Yet on expert pawnbroker's evidence elicited by police inquiry it is found that this is not at all an unusual practice. In the vast majority of cases it would seem to be a simpler matter to draw on the bank account rather than borrow on the strength of it from the pawnshop. But one of the unfortunate possibilities of the practice is revealed in the particular case mentioned at Westminster. A picture frame maker, wishing to withdraw £3 from the bank, could not find his bank book and then learned that his wife had been putting the book in and out of pawn for eight years, having borrowed £7 10s. on it the first time, and of course she had been paying interest on her various transactions.—London Pall Mall Gazette. REV. GEORGE W. RULAND REV. GEORGE W. RULAND Restored to Health by Vinol and Strongly Enorses It. Prominent men from all parts of the country are endorsing Vinol and strong testimonial letters from four ministers of the gospel and several physicians have been received within a week. Such unsolicited testimony as this is the best proof of merit and medicine can have. The Rev. George W. Ruland of Keene, N. H., writes: "I have used your cod liver oil preparation, Vinol, as a tonic, and I do not believe there is any other medicine that can equal it. I built me up and strengthened me when run down, and overworked. Vinol has done for me more than was claimed for it." "We honestly believe there is no other remedy or cod liver oil preparation known to medicine that has the healing, strengthening power which Vinol has, and if it fails to create strength and health for run-down, debilitated people, old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers, and after a severe sickness, or if it fails to cure a hacking cough, chronic cold, throat or bronchial trouble, or to make those who are too thin fat, rosy and healthy, we will return every cent paid us for it. Is there a sick, ailing or aged person in Anaheim who can afford to ignore this generous offer?" O. A. Mullinix, druggist.
