FOR AMERICAN FARMERS National Irrigation Transforms Millions of Acres of Desert into Productive Agricultural Lands The farmers of the United States will be interested in an article lately published over the signature of C. J. Blanchard, Statistician of the United States Reclamation Service, showing the vastness of the government irrigation projects now being built under the provisions of the national reclamation act for the purpose of making new farms for the rapidly growing number of American farmers. Mr. Blanchard in his article enumerates a long list of projects actually under construction, and another list held in abeyance awaiting the time when the condition of the reclamation fund will permit their construction. He shows that the twenty-five projects now under construction, when fully developed, will add to the crop-producing area of the United States 3,198,000 acres, or a cultivated area equal to the total acreage devoted to agricultural crops in Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Florida. Three of these twenty-five projects are practically completed; six more will be service this summer. Work is progressing on all of them, and their early completion may be considered absolutely sure. Thirteen additional projects held in abeyance have an even greater area than those now under construction, and there are in the west many more millions of acres with water available for irrigation—a great field for further agricultural development comprising George Kadelbach.

Work is progressing on all of them, and their early completion may be considered absolutely sure. Thirteen additional projects held in abeyance have an even greater area than those now under construction, and there are in the west many more millions of acres with water available for irrigation—a great field for further agricultural development, comprising one of our most valuable resources in view of the rapid increase in population and the necessity of continued increase of agricultural production. The national reclamation act provides that money received from sales of public lands in certain western states and territories shall be placed in a revolving fund that is being used to build irrigation systems in the state which provide it. The law wisely provides for the return of the money to the national treasury by the lands benefited when it becomes available for use in further irrigation construction. The addition of these millions of acres to the agricultural lands of the country is of interest not alone to the west, but to the entire United States, because of the importance of continued agricultural expansion. It is of interest to the farmers because it gives to their sons an opportunity of obtaining new lands; it is of interest to the business men because it means opportunities for new business; it is of interest to manufacturers because it means a new demand for their products. The enactment of the law under which this great reclamation work is going on is very largely due to the national irrigation congress, the fifteenth session of which will be held in Sacramento, California, September 2-7 next. This promises to be one of the most widely represented congresses ever held in this country, both because of the widespread interest in this new national irrigation policy, and because of the widespread interest in national forestry, which takes equal prominence in the annual meeting of this body. California Eucalypts Arrangements have been made by the government to continue the investigations upon the California eucalyptus Violent protests are being number of highly protected against the arrangement. United States is entering Germany for the continual relations pending the formation definite commercial treaty signed by the two governments arrangement consists in all manufacturers in Germany the valuation of certain class that are made solely for whose price cannot be fixed parison with the home market small concession and not the opinion of the secretary or the secretary of the treasury of whom are parties to the will result in any underwritten German goods.

A shipment of 104 logs of the different species of eucalyptus which have been introduced into California has been secured. This material was cut from the Cooper and Bishop estates near Santa Barbara. The eucalyptus are natives of Australia, but seem very well adapted to the climate of central and Southern California. The wood is dense and strong, and gives every indication of being suitable for many of the uses to which eastern hardwoods, such as hickory, oak and maple are now put. In addition to these valuable mechanical properties, the tree has a very rapid growth. Terrible Tragedy Word has been received of a terrible tragedy committed in Minnesota in which a woman was murdered, and her slayer, an Orange county man, was found dead with a bullet hole through his head. Both the woman and her slayer were well known in the northern end of the county. The tragedy occurred in Anoka, Minn., and the name of the woman was Mrs. Katrina McCart. The man who killed her was... Kadelbach. Kadelbach owned both at Orangethorpe, near Fuller-His wife and Mrs. McCart were their mother died, and Mrs. McCart got a little of the property. It seemed to get more of it, it is said, is believed that caused the tragic Both Mrs. McCart and Kadelbach disappeared from Anoka, sixteen miles from Minneapolis, on May 24. The 5th Mrs. McCart’s body was in the bottom of a well, and with Kadelbach’s coat. The same Kadelbach’s body was found in a nearby Officers of this county were going for Kadelbach here until word received of the discovery of his at Anoka.

OUR POLICY FOR DOING BUSINESS We believe to make money we must satisfy our customers. We cannot afford to disappoint our patrons any more in quality than in count. To make a sale and acquire an enemy is poor policy. We do not wish to sell a man what he does not want or need. Honesty, square dealing, and one price to all, is what the people now demand and what we are endeavoring to give them. We benefit ourselves only as we benefit our patrons. We do not try to get all we can for an article, but we demand only a fair profit and have a fair price. We do not consider a deal closed until our customer is perfectly satisfied. We believe in trading on the line of mutual benefit. We do not buy or sell goods of doubtful quality. We always give our customer what he pays for and what he thinks he is getting. We have unbounded faith that a constant and persistent adherence to the policy above outlined will enable us not only to get but to hold your trade.

Ant protests are being made by a group of highly protected interests in the arrangement that the States is entering into with duty for the continuance of trade is pending the formation of a commercial treaty that can be signed by the two governments. The agreement consists in allowing the settlers in Germany to swear to abstain of certain classes of goods made solely for export and price cannot be fixed by compromise with the home market. It is a succession and not one that in violation of the secretary of state secretary of the treasury, both are parties to the agreement, result in any undervaluation of goods. But of course the howl "executive usurpation" is being by a number of already overdue interests. It is not usurpable, but a timely expedient to pressing emergency.

Important Water Decision The United States supreme court has decided a very important water casethat is likely to largely affect irrigation matters in the west.Kansas suedColorado and asked that the CentennialState be enjoined from taking so much water from the Arkansas river.The Kansas people claimed that if theriver were allowed to run as formerlyit would be navigable and would serveto irrigate large tracts in Kansas.Thecourt fought shy of the question ofnavigability,but held that each statehas control over the waters of the streamsflowing through it,so far as appropriation for irrigation is concerned.Thecourt intimates,however,that theremay be future cause of action,if theresult of the continued irrigation inColorado should be to cause the riverto dry up below the Kansas line andthus deprive the farmers of that stateof all possibility of its use.The decision closes as follows: "The decree which, therefore,willbe entered, will be the dismissingof the petition of the intervenor without prejudice to the right of theUnitedStates to take such action as it shalldeem necessary to preserve orimprove the navigability of the river.The decree will also dismiss the billofthe state of Kansas as against allthe defendantswithout prejudice to the" Invite the publicportations.PatLa New Scale EnGrowers will be pleasanother enemy of the blaing propagated in the at San Francisco.It ismuch smaller than theShahas the merit of attackingthe young scales.Thefeeds only upon the egone of its points of innew fly may prove therestruction.A writernational subjects says hework and it had destroyof the scale below therstage.It was importedboughs which were literewith the black scale andSouth America.

The decision closes as follows: "The decree which, therefore, will be entered, will be the dismissing of the petition of the intervenor without prejudice to the right of the United States to take such action as it shall deem necessary to preserve or improve the navigability of the river. The decree will also dismiss the bill of the state of Kansas as against all the defendants, without prejudice to the right of the plaintiff to institute new proceedings whenever it shall appear that through a material increase in the depletion of the waters of the Arkansas by Colorado, its corporations or citizens, the substantial interests of Kansas are being injured to the extent of destroying the equitable apportionment between the two states, resulting from the flow of the river. "Colorado could be upheld in appro-priating the entire flow of the Arkansas river, on the ground that it is willing to give, and does give to Kansas something else which might be considered of equal value. That would be equivalent to this court making a contract between the two states and that it is not authorized to do. It cannot be denied, in view of all the testimony that the diminution of the flow of water in the river by the irrigation of Colorado has worked some detriment to the southwestern part of Kansas, yet when we compare the amount of this detriment with the great benefit which has obviously resulted to the counties in Colorado, it would seem that equality of right and equity between the two states forbids any interference with the present withdrawal of water in Colorado for purposes of irrigation."
