TROPHY FOR IRRIGATORS Massive Silver Punch Bowl for Best Display Irrigated Cereals at Sacramento Interstate Exposition. The design has been received for the Baker & Hamilton trophy for the best display of irrigated cereal products at the coming Interstate Exposition of Irrigated Land Products and Forest Products, to be held in Sacramento in September in connection with the fifteenth session of the National Irrigation Congress. This magnificent gift, which is one of an extensive list of costly and beautiful prizes to be awarded at the interstate exposition, consists of a silver punch bowl of massive proportions and exquisite workmanship. It stands 16¾ inches in height and measures 13¾ inches in diameter across the top of the bowl. The decorative scheme is worked out in repousse hand-work, illustrating cereals grown on irrigated land. The minutest details of this feature of the design are vividly developed, the corn tassels and barley beards standing out in the most natural manner. The artistic management of this effect reflects great credit upon the skill and taste of both the designer and the manipulator of the precious metal. Inscriptions will be placed on medalions left plain on the exterior surface of the bowl for that purpose. VISITORS WILL BE HOSPITABLY ENTERED TAINED. Preparations for the entertainment of visitors to the National Irrigation congress are planned on a large scale. It is estimated that the event arranged in connection with the meeting will attract fully 30,000 strangers to the city. Everything will be done to insure the comfort and pleasure of visitors. The management of the details of this important work is in the hands of committees whose members are accustomed to handling big things. Every facility will be afforded to people from a distance to visit point of interest in the great Sacramento valley and elsewhere in the state. Navel Orange Advances State All industries, enterprises and experiments must have a beginning. Most cases these beginnings are inaugurious and many of them die abnormally. Often times it is impossible to see how far-reaching an affect some apparently trivial circumstance will have upon the future of a country or a community. It is safe to say that if the government had never imported the first few navel orange trees from Brazil, Southern California would be year behind its present development. The coming of the navel orange was to California what the discovery of gold in her deserts has been to Nevada with this difference, that California would in time have had her present acreage planted to other fruits, while Nevada, without her minerals, would have been a desert perhaps for ever more. The navel orange advanced Southern California twenty years and he thousands upon thousands of carloads. the design are vividly developed, the corn tassels and barley beards standing out in the most natural manner. The artistic management of this effect reflects great credit upon the skill and taste of both the designer and the manipulator of the precious metal. Inscriptions will be placed on medalions left plain on the exterior surface of the bowl for that purpose. Upon one of these will be wrought the official medal of the fifteenth national irrigation congress. This trophy is a work of art of the highest type and its intrinsic value is of no less importance. The liveliest interest is manifested among irrigationists and forestry people in all the Western States in the coming illustrative and competitive display at the interstate exposition. This will be immensely stimulated by the publication of the big catalogue of costly and splendid prizes hung up as awards to successful contestants in the irrigation and forestry events. The fact that California is barred from the majority of these contests adds zest to the interest aroused among prospective exhibitors from other states. MONTANA AND ARIZONA TO BE STRONGLY REPRESENTED. The chairman of the executive committee has received letters from Governor Toole of Montana and Govornor Kibbey of Arizona, signifying their intention to be present and take in the Fifteenth National Irrigation congress which meets in Sacramento in September. Governor Kibbey writes strongly of the importance of the session and of his appreciation of the great work and purposes to which it is devoted. This, he states, applies not only to local interests, but in a far higher degree to broad national issues affecting the material growth and welfare of the entire country. The significance of the questions taken up by the congress, and the nature The coming of the navel orange wafts to California what the discovery of gold in her deserts has been to Nevada with this difference, that California would in time have had her present acreage planted to other fruits, while Nevada, without her minerals, would have been a desert perhaps for ever more. The navel orange advanced Southern California twenty years and her thousands upon thousands of carloads of delicious navel oranges are bringing back hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of dollars that find their way in various channels. As some one has said of the strawberry: "Perhaps God can make a better berry, but God never did;" so it is with the navel. God never made a better orange when all its qualities are considered. Its appearance, keeping and eating qualities will compare with any orange grown, and though other varieties are at times higher in price, it is only because of their comparative rarity at the time. If these varieties were in a great volume as the navel at the same time, and under equal conditions it would be found that they did not have the popularity to give them any advantage in prices. However that may be, it is the fact that navels are in great volume at the time when it has practically no competition, and the further fact that it can be grown in no other part of the world makes it such an important asset to the prosperity of California. The navel being a semi-tropical product, will not grow in commercial quantity or to commercial perfection in Florida or Mexico, and it is only on a comparatively narrow strip of land in Southern California that it has yet reached perfection in great quantities. This fact gives California an advantage over every orange-growing country in the world and for three months in the year; and at the time when the navel is in the best condition, they have no rival worthy of the name. Of course the industry has had its ups and downs. There have been years when the orange grower has been discouraged and when it looked as though over-production had nearly ruined the business. These years of depression, however, were mainly caused by mistakes, marketing wars between rival organizations or unfortunate climatic Ribsey writes strongly of the importance of the session and of his appreciation of the great work and purposes to which it is devoted. This, he states, applies not only to local interests, but in a far higher degree to broad national issues affecting the material growth and welfare of the entire country. The significance of the questions taken up by the congress, and the nature of the problems discussed, should be adds, command the attention of all American citizens irrespective of sectional lines. Governor Toole writes in a similar vein, and both executives state that they are busying themselves with the selection of suitable delegates to send to the congress. MANY STATE GOVERNORS TO MEET IN SACRAMENTO. Thus far the governors of seven states and territories have accepted invitations to attend the National Irrigation congress. It is expected that the number will be largely augmented as the date of the session approaches. The executive of every state and territory in which the National reclamation law is operative will be present if it is at all possible to do so. In addition to these, it is quite probable that several Eastern states will be similarly represented. September will witness the most notable convention of state governors in Sacramento ever held on the Pacific coast. Of course the industry has had its ups and downs. There have been years when the orange grower has been discouraged and when it looked as though over-production had nearly ruined the business. These years of depression however, were mainly caused by mistakes, marketing wars between rival organizations or unfortunate climatic conditions, either at home or abroad, and not by overproduction. It may happen again that weather conditions will have an unfortunate effect upon a certain season's returns, but the marketing feature of the business, though it might be improved upon, is at least being conducted upon a sane basis, and ruinous price-cutting has been practically eliminated. It has been conclusively proved that the present methods of handling are responsible for a great percentage of decay found upon arrival at eastern markets. Decayed fruit means cheap fruit, and cheap fruit means cheap markets. In other words., a quantity of decayed fruit has a tendency to cheapen fruit that is sound. The sound orange, as it is taken from the tree, is practically immune from decay, and its 79 or 349 mates, as the case may be placed in the car without cuts, abrasions or rough handling of any kind, they are bound to reach the market in perfect condition, whether they are three days or three weeks in transit, whether with ice or without, and they can be safely stored on the other end and thus avoid the probability of being forced upon the market at the wrong time.

It is a question of the survival of the fittest. The navel season is now nearly over, being a month later than any previous year on account of the late ripening of the fruit. It has been the best year in the history of the industry. Everything has been with the orange man, though at times it looked just the opposite. Particularly has the weather, both East and in California, been all the orange grower and shipper could wish for. Cold weather East and cool weather West saved many thousands of dollars to all concerned. The fruit kept well on the trees to the last and the season wound up in a blaze of glory. Prices on sound fruit are now higher than ever before. Large sizes seem to be in better demand now than they were at an earlier stage and the grower of navels is now in a position, both mentally and financially, to take a well-earned rest at the seashore or the mountains, as his taste dictates. Other varieties of the orange are doing well, particularly the St. Michaels. Valencias are not meeting with their usual reception because of the lateness of the navels, which tends to confirm the argument that the navel is always popular. Dealers on this end appear to be holding strongly to their earlier prices, but the auctions are not showing any returns that justify these high prices. Later in the season, after July 4th, this variety will come to its own, as it has no competitor in the summer season. All Valencias from the north have been shipped and nearly all of this fruit went out on orders at from $3 to $3.50 f.o.b. for fancy fruit. It will take eight figures to represent in dollars the income from the orange groves of Southern California this year.

It will take eight figures to represent in dollars the income from the orange groves of Southern California this year. Canned Meats Hit The canned beef industry of the United States is but slowly recovering from the shock it received by the publication of the Reynolds-Neill report in June, 1906. A few figures will show the remarkable falling off of our exports in canned beef since the packing house scandal of one year ago. The value of exported canned beef for the ten months preceding May, 1906, was $5,667,747; for the same period of time preceding May, 1907, the value of the exports was $1,330,283. Statistics show that no business ever suffered such a slump as this before. Prior to the scandal the whole world came to this country for its tinned beef. Secretary Wilson now declares that "we have the best meat inspection laws on earth," and that as a result some of the large packers are in a fair way to place large orders abroad. The live stock interests are surely grieving over this loss of trade, yet they should remember that the publication of the true condition of the packing-houses was made necessary by the opposition of the packers in congress last summer. Industries Looking Toward California The Development Society of California is obtaining great results from the ads it has been running, calling attention to the wonderful opportunities that California has to offer to the manufacturer, and letters are being received daily from eastern manufacturers asking for detailed information regarding shipping facilities, seaports, supplies of raw material, etc. A company from Jeannette, Pa., a suburb of Pittsbuug, has written concerning the outlook for a glass factory, stating that if suitable materials can be secured the officials of the company will come to Southern California and make a thorough investigation. There is little doubt but what this factory would give employment to quite a number of skilled workmen and would doubtedly develop into a mammal plant, as the factory would be in a position to manufacture all kinds of goods. A manufacturer in Chicago will establish a branch factory in South-California for the purpose of manufacturing wire mesh and also for the pose of manufacturing the machine for making this class of goods. It would give employment to quite a number of skilled workmen and would doubtedly develop into a mammal plant, as the factory would be in a position to manufacture all kinds of goods. Another inquiry is from a concern Pennsylvania that asks about the possibilities that California has to offer to a concern making a specialty brass castings and fittings, and a general line of plumbers goods. The society has received hundred letters similar to the above, and indications are that quite a number desirable factories will move to California or establish branches.

Two Cruisers for Pacific Washington, June 30.—As evident that the Navy Department is impressed with the fact that the Pacific presents the most Probable scene of future international disquiet, the armored cruisers Tennessee and Washington be sent to the Pacific. The decision of the department which was reached by Secretary Mcalf after a conference with the President, is regarded as a hint that navy in the pacific may be strengthened still more by the transfer of large force of battleships from the lantic. The Tennessee and the Washington are the newest armored cruisers on naval list. The Pacific fleet is organized on a cruiser basis. Four armored cruisers, the West Virginia, the Pennsylvania, the Maryland and the Colorado, were sent to the Pacific by Suez last September to serve as backbone of the fleet. The Tennessee and the Washington are built more speed than for fighting. They display 14,500 tons, have twenty-two knots speed and coal capacity to keep sea for 6500 miles at ten knots. Each carries fourteen-inch guns, paired turrets fore and aft, sixteen six-inch quick-firers in broadsides, and usual smaller calibres in proportion.
