The contract for carrying the daily
mail between Yuma and San Diego has
been given to Gaskill Brothers of Campo.
About 100 miles of the road lies across
the California desert. Across this stretch
malls and passengers are soon to be car
ried by steam. Messrs. Gaskill are in.
dustrious inventors and have obtained q
number of patents. One of their last in
ventions is a steam wagon, designed
more particularly for travelling level and
sandy roads. A Aworking model has been
made, which fully demonstrates the prac-
tical value of the invention. One OF the
brothers has just purchased suitable
engine and boiler, at San Francisco, of
about two horsepower. The wagon will
be made in their shop at Campo. It
will have two driving wheels OF seven
feet diameter and twelve inches wide of
tire. The whole apparatus will weigh
about two thousand pounds, when sup
piled with fuel and water, and ready for
business. 1t is intended to make an
average speed of eight or ten miles per
hour, carrying five or six persons and a
moderate weight of baggage and mails.
it will consume about ten gallons OF
water per hour. There is plenty Of fuel
in the mesquit groves on the desert, and
among the willows and cottonwoods on
New River and the Colorado. One man
can manage the whole thing. Messrs.
Gaskill propose to have the new machine
making regular trips across the desert
by October 1st.-[ Yuma Sentinel.
SUGAR CANE CULTURE IN KERN County
The experiments here in sugar culture
have not been on large scale - yet, but
sufficient to demonstrate that cane will
grow here and mature as we'll IS, II not
better than in Louisiana. A. P. Bernard

we'll acquainted with the cultivation oi
cane and the manufacture of sugar.
From observations here he became CON.
vinced that the country was adapted to
the growth of sugar cane. He expert.
mented in q small way by planting few
joints of cane in his yard last year. The
product was as fine cane IS is grown in
the world. The stalk was large and un,
usually long, and very full of saccharine
matter. Sorghum was expsrimented
With, at the same time on the McOlune
ranch. 1t grew finely and the cant
raised was Of the very best quality. Mr.
MoCaig, who is farming near Panama ir

planter and has had many years expert
ence in the business. He has given tn,
culture of sugar here considerabl,
thought, and his deliberate conviction il
that there is large body of No. can.
land on the island, and that the seasons
here are more favorable for its matur,
development than in Louisiana, beoaus,
they are longer and the winter milder
He is 80 thoroughly convinced Of thi
that he intends to plant thirty acres il

The summer of 1879 promises to be the

to carry the elections to the Reichstsg.
These elections take place next Tuesday,
the Assembly having been dissolved after
sn existence of seventeen mOnths-the con-
stitution provides for duration of three
years-in consequence of its refusal to pass
the Anti Socialist bill.

tricts where at fret there was no choice,)
there we're elected 397 members of the

How to Fsrtiliro an Immense Desert.



After all, the great problem of irrigAtinR the
Colorado desert may be sccc m plishsd by natu-
raj means, and without the expenditure Of vast
same of money, as has been proposed.
The surveys made in 1873 Of the desert lying
west OF the Colorado river, and extending into
Mexico, demonstrated fully that IL was out OF
from the Gulf of California by the sedimens
deposited by the Colorado river. The old
shore lines are distinctly recognizable away
up In San Bernardino county, and greet beds
Of oysters and other marine shells attest tho
presence at no very remote day Of sea water
at places from whfcb 1t is now $50 milea die
tant. The Southern Pacific Railroad crosses
this dried mp part of the Gulf, running for
over sixty miles ct levels from one to $40 foet
below that Of the sea.
The Colorado river has deposited sand and
mud along its course until it's bed is, In places,
fully 400 feet higher than it was in the old
days when IL eDptied into the Gulf at leAs6
one hundred miles nearer Yuma than it does
now. Il continued to pile mp sediment until
Q dam wac formed reaching acrots the gulf ia
the Lower California shore. The head Of the
gulf thus became Q lake of salt Wster, and be-
ing fed by no streams, gradually dried mp.
This dam now averages Q height of only 81 feet
above mean high tides.
The Colorado now f1Ws to the south Of ft,
