NATIONAL AID TO IRRIGATION HOW THE ARID WEST IS BEING TRANSFORMED INTO A GARDEN Easterners Who at First Opposed Passage of Irrigation Act See Subject in New Light—Intensive Cultivation of Western Lands Creating a Market for Eastern Factories A great many Eastern farmers have always insisted that it is unfair to them, or the descendants of them, who with extreme toll, and often in great peril, at their own cost literally hewed their way through a wilderness to clear and improve their own farms, to expose them to the competition of what they call "state aided farmers". They bitterly opposed the passage of the national irrigation act claiming that the public lands the proceeds of which sales are devoted to irrigation were the property of the whole nation, so that to the extent that eastern farmers have interests in the public lands their own property is wrongfully taken to pay the cost of creating unfair competition. To the argument that these new irrigated lands devoted to intensive and special farming will make markets for the products of eastern factories whose workmen will consume the products of eastern farms they denied that this indirect benefit would offset the damage of this unfair competition and insisted that not for a generation, at least, would there be any necessity for opening up the arid lands to settlement. They pictured to themselves the whole continent west of the 100th meridian cut thing better than unceasing toll, no opportunity whatever of accumulating the most modest competence." Mr. Tucker amplifies this and deplores the increasing tendency to landlordism and tenant farming. Doubtless it is to be deplored. In no other land is there to be found the counterpart of the independent American farmer tilling with his own hands a substantial acreage owned in fee simple. The type has existed elsewhere, but has not been able to persist. It is not certain that the American type will persist, but if anything will maintain it it is settlement on the national irrigation act, when water will be supplied only to those owning and living on the irrigated farm, and to them only on a strictly limited acreage. Extensive landed estates worked by tenants will never be possible under a national ditch. It would seem that Mr. Tucker has a subconscious feeling, probably not recognized by himself, that there is after all a real fitness of things in the "gentleman farmer" earning his bread by the sweat of other men's brows, for later in his address he says, referring to these irrigated lands: "A second channel of mischief is the absorption of the new lands by the men and women who ought to supply, and in the normal condition of things would supply, an abundance of labor, at moderate wages for established farmers. The demand for really efficient help, at prices that farmers can afford to pay, is left largely unsatisfied, to the injury of the farming interest, and perhaps most of all to the overburdening of the wife of the small farmer with tasks of which hired servants could greatly relieve her—by the facility with which the persons who ought to supply it can go west and become farmers on their thing better than unceasing toll, no opportunity whatever of accumulating the most modest competence."

They pictured to themselves the whole continent west of the 100th meridian cut up into small farms, irrigated at their expense and freely given away to whomsoever would take them. Since the passage of the act the eastern agricultural press does not devote so much space to the subject, but so far as it refers to it, the same views are expressed and with the same bitterness. Some of them have learned that instead of irrigating the whole western half of the continent, comparatively small portions can ever be irrigated. So far from "giving away irrigated farms," the cost to the settler for an improved farm will exceed the price at which most farms can be bought already improved in the Atlantic states, and settlers of small means are not likely to be able to meet their payments, so that congress will doubtless be compelled to extend the time of payment. In fact, it should have been recognized at first that ten years was too short a time. All other countries which assist farmers in such ways give a full generation for the payment, but they charge interest, which we do not. In the end all these irrigated lands will become very valuable—some much sooner than others—but in the meantime, for the "poor man" there will be hard pioneering, and with all that can be done by irrigation, population will increase much faster than agricultural products. The farmers of the United States are the most prosperous class of our people and their future is safest. The "competition" of the irrigated lands in the arid states is not and never will be noticeable. The management of the national irrigation fund is not wise, but it is as prudent as that of our other governmental functions. Local insistence doubtless is compelling some projects to be developed before their time. Official enthusiasm aided to cover the whole field as nearly as possible at once. Congress erred in requiring payments to be made in ten years without interest instead of things would supply, an abundance of labor, at moderate wages for established farmers. The demand for really efficient help, at prices that farmers can afford to pay, is left largely unsatisfied, to the injury of the farming interest, and perhaps most of all to the overburdening of the wife of the small farmer with tasks of which hired servants could greatly relieve her—by the facility with which the persons who ought to supply it can go west and become farmers on their own account, your property and mine being freely offered them for that purpose." Somehow that sentiment does not seem to comport well with the anxiety displayed earlier in the address for the preservation of the typical American farmer. MINERAL WATERS Increased Production During the Year —Imports and Exports [Contributed to The Gazette.] The trade in mineral waters in 1908 did not show the depressed condition of many other industries consequent on the financial disturbance of 1907, according to Samuel Sanford, of the United States Geological Survey whose annual report on this industry forms an advance chapter from "Mineral resources of the United States, calendar year 1908." The total quantity sold during the year was 56,108,280 gallons, compared with 52,060,520 gallops in 1907, a gain of 4,048,300 gallons, or 7.78 per cent. The value of the output decreased slightly, from $7,331,503 in 1907 to $7,287,269 in 1908. This showing is a little surprising in view of the fact that some of the widely sold carbonated table waters are to most consumers luxuries rather than necessities. The totals reported do not represent the real importance of this industry in the United States, for the reason that at many resorts the quantity of water furnished free to guests far exceeds the quantity sold, and no figures are available to show the quantity or value of strictly artificial table and medicinal water or of sweetened beverages (soft drinks) produced. The number of springs reporting sales in 1908 was 695, including one or more in every State and territory. Although this was an increase of 111, or 19 percent over the number no longer properly tilled. Instances we have made may on a small tractor that the poorly cultivated in the future desire to get and bustle of business perplexed.

Local insistence doubtless is compelling some projects to be developed before their time. Official enthusiasm aided to cover the whole field as nearly as possible at once. Congress erred in requiring payments to be made in ten years without interest instead of thirty with interest, and in permitting any one to settle on the land and do with it as he pleases, instead of as in other countries, requiring of settlers without means some evidence of fitness and compelling them, until some payments had been made or substantial improvements made and paid for, to work under direction, paid for by those directed. All that, however, is quite in accord with our happy-go-lucky American way and was to be expected. The nation, like other nations, will grow wiser as it grows older. We shall have some costly experience and in due time shall profit by it. But with all our awkwardness and extravagance, the whole country will gain by the national conservation and development of national domain. We have before us an address delivered by Gilbert M. Tucker, editor of the Country Gentlemen, before the National Farmers' Congress in 1902, in which certain evil social rural tendencies are noted which it was alleged that national aid to irrigation would intensify. A farmer "of considerable means" is quoted as follows: "The fact of it is, the drift of things in this country is steadily reducing our farmers to the condition of the peasantry of the old nations of Europe, a condition in which sustenance, of a very plain sort, may reasonably be expected, but in which there is positively no hope for any- the United States, for the reason that at many resorts the quantity of water furnished free to guests far exceeds the quantity sold, and no figures are available to show the quantity or value of strictly artificial table and medicinal water or of sweetened beverages (soft drinks) produced. The number of springs reporting sales in 1908 was 695, including one or more in every State and territory. Although this was an increase of 111, or 19 per cent, over the number reported in 1907, the figures show that the gain in production was due not wholly to this cause and that many springs sold more water in 1908 than in the preceding year. The average retail price of the waters at springs was 13 cents a gallon. The leading states in quantity sold are Minnesota, New York, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Ohio, Virginia, Michigan, and California, in the order named. The condition of the mineral-water industry during 1908 shows that the demand for pure drinking water extends across the continent and has come to stay. The growth of population, the movement toward cities, the wholesale pollution of surface waters, and the time that must elapse before even a major part of the cities are provided with purification plants are factors that indicate continued growth for the table-water trade. The imports of natural, semi-artificial, and strictly artificial waters entered for consumption in 1908 were 2,912,398 gallons, valued at $1,032,047. No figures are available to show the exports, though considerable quantities of certain domestic waters are known to be exported to Canada, Mexico, and the West Indies. Mr. Sanford's report contains a general review of the industry, and details of the trade by States, with a list of the springs. A copy can be had free on application to the Director of the Survey at Washington. ANAHEIM GAZETTE SALARIED MEN TO THE FARMS CULTIVATING SMALL TRACTS A LUCRATIVE BUSINESS Omaha Man Buys Land and Sells Half for Purchase Price—Cleans up $2000 Per Year—Incomes Bigger on Farms than in Business Ventures Omaha, Neb., Sept. 21.—People of the cities of the west, as well as those of the rural sections, are rapidly becoming imbued with the idea that there is more money to be made in carrying on farming of small tracts than by trying to make money in business ventures. As a result, owning acre property outside the corporate limits of the cities and towns, thus avoiding the high taxes for internal improvements, is becoming quite the thing. For miles around Omaha and along the motor lines that have stretched out into the country during the past three years city people have bought property from two to ten acres; and while they are still conducting their business as in former days, or working on salaries, they are planting the lands in fruit, or bringing them under a high state of cultivation, showing what can be done if the soil is properly tilled. Instances where men and women have made money, besides a living, on a small tract of land are numerous, all of which is believed to indicate that the day of the large farm poorly cultivated is past and that in the future there is to be more of a desire to get away from the hurry and bustle of city life, its cares and business perplexities.

H. E. Zilch cultivates five acres, a part of which is into small fruit and the balance garden and alfalfa. Last year his net income was $1000, and this year it will be a little over $1200. There are scores of other similar instances that could be cited. In almost every case, the men who have gone from the city and taken the land and worked it have made money. They have lived better and have not worked so hard as they did when they were on salaries, and besides all of this, they have been independent. This not only applies here, but all over the west.

In 1908, as in 1907, New York ranked first, Alabama second, and Pennsylvania third in both quantity and value of the natural graphite produced. A part of the reduction in natural graphite was made up by artificial product, which increased in value from $481,239 to $592,667 Artificial graphite is made by a single firm located at Niagara Falls, which used an electric process in its manufacture. Graphite is of growing industrial importance.The fact that it nearly pure carbon,is relatively insert chemically,and volatilizes only at high temperatures makes it of exceptional value in the manufacture of crucibles,muffles,swirring rods,either Most of it used for these purposes however,they imported from Ceylon.

Land Costs Him Nothing Four years ago George West, city passenger agent of one of the Omaha-Chicago lines, purchased twenty acres of land six miles from the city. One year later he sold half of the tract for more than he paid for the whole. The year of the purchase he bought $100 worth of fertilizer and scattered it over the twenty acres. That year he hired the land cultivated, and in the fall picked and sold 1400 bushels of corn, which he sold for $840, leaving him a profit of $750. The next spring he planted the ten acres, one-half in strawberries, and the balance was set out to cherry trees. Of course, that year he did not raise anything, but the following year from his strawberries he sold $1500 worth. This year his strawberries netted him $1200 and his cherries $500. Five years ago W. A. Anderson, a struggling young lawyer without any practice to speak of, found himself in the same rut with many others and decided to get out. He had saved up $1000, and with this he made a payment on twenty-five acres of land, one mile from the end of a car line. The first year he planted the greater part to grain and made enough to pay for the erection of a small house. The next year he planted the land to berries and small fruit. The second year following his net income was $1500, and every year since it has ranged from $1800 to $2500. Makes $2000 a Year George Gray, a street railway conductor, three years ago bought ten acres of old and worn-out orchard. That year he gave his trees a severe pruning, spraying them and killing the insects. That year his crop aggregated six bushels. Last year he pursued the same methods with reference to care and raised 100 bushels of the finest fruit. This year his trees are loaded so heavily that they have to be propped up, and the contracted sales are $2000. It is estimated that the crop will be 1800 bush- TRAINING IN AGRICULTURE Scientific Education Imparted To Young Men at State Farm The attention of the agricultural communities is fixed upon Davis, where, on the twentieth instant, opened the second term of the Agricultural School on the University Farm. The school is designed especially for young men who want a scientific and practical training in agriculture at the high school age, and to which they can be admitted from the grammar schools. The attendance this term will be forty or more, many of whom have had a year at least in regular high schools and are prepared to do good work with the facilities offered by the state at this new school. Instruction is given in farm practice, livestock judging, botany and plant propagation, horticulture, viticulture, dairying, breeds and feeding, livestock, soil fertility, farm crops, farm mechanic, irrigation, land surveying, and mathematics and English. It is still time to enter the school for the present year and every young man who can possibly get away from home, or his regular business, should avail himself of these splendid opportunities to study the science and practice of improved agriculture. There is no tuition and fees are nominal. Board and room are at moderate rates, and the boys live in a beautiful new dormitory. Send a postal to the University Farm, Davis, for a copy of Circular No. 43, if you have not a copy already. Don't miss the opportunity to learn all about this school. MR. PIEROTTI'S NEW RESIDENCE A. Pierotti is having plans made by a Los Angeles architect for a high temperatures makes it difficult to maintain value in the manufacture of crucibles, muffles, stirring rods, etc. Most of it used for these purposes however, is imported from Ceylon. Another important use is for lubricating. The addition of graphite to oil results in lower friction than would be obtained by the use of oil alone. The quantity of oil required is also reduced, and a lighter grade of oil of inferior quality may be employed. Graphite can also be used as a lubricant alone. The use of graphite mixed with clay for lead pencils is well known. The more graphite and the less clay the softer the pencil; the less graphite and the more clay, the harder the pencil. Formerly every American pencil manufacturer had to import his graphite from Bohemia or Bavaria but about ten years ago a large deposit of amorphous graphite was discovered in Sonora, Mexico, which proved to be of excellent quality for pencil making, and the American pencil trade now relies mainly on this source. Graphite is also used for coating foundry facings, for stove-polishing pastes, for coloring tea leaves and coffee beans, as a rust-preventing paint, and for adulterating fertilizers—this last being for the benefit of people who think no fertilizer good unless it is dark colored.

LEMON GROWERS WILL FIGHT Los Angeles, Sept. 18.-A circular letter to 200 lemon growers of Southern California has been issued by the Citrus Protective League inviting them to join in the fight against the proposed increase in freight rates. The letter suggests two plans of procedure against the roads. One is to present their claims to the interstate commerce commission, and the other is to secure an injunction to prevent the rates being effective. Mr. Pierotti's new residence A. Pierotti is having plans made by a Los Angeles architect for a twelve room colonial house to be erected on his fine ranch in Placentia. The residence will stand in the center of a forty-five acre grove, and will cost about $12,000. The building will be of frame construction, with a large front porch of brick and cement, a feature of which will be colonial columns extending to the roof line. A balcony will extend from this porch to the porte-cochere. The first floor will contain a living room, 30x16 feet, back of which will be an inglenook with bookcases and a fireplace. The dining room will have a built-in buffet, with an elaborate cornice. The lower rooms will be finished in oak; the upper rooms in white enamel. Floors will be hardwood throughout. A solar heating and circulating water system, a gas plant, and a hot-air furnace will be installed. The grounds will be handsomely laid out in drives. Drying preparations simply develop dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and snuffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm will master catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly.

Los Angeles, Sept. 18.—A circular letter to 200 lemon growers of Southern California has been issued by the Citrus Protective League inviting them to join in the fight against the proposed increase in freight rates. The letter suggests two plans of procedure against the roads. One is to present their claims to the interstate commerce commission, and the other is to secure an injunction to prevent the rates being coming effective. The league apparently favors first securing an injunction and then taking ample time to carry the claims before the commission. A. G. Kendall, secretary and general manager of the League, of San Bernardino, is in the city today. He said: "The lemon growers have been handled a lemon, all right, but they won't accept it passively. We intend to fight this matter to a finish." To show their belief that Senator Flint had no knowledge of the plans of the railroad, the league plans to tender him a banquet on Tuesday evening. O.
