IRRIGATION AND RAIN.
The Necessity OF Artificial Water in spite
of Heay, Rainfall.

In commenting on Gen. Greeley's
American Weather." the San Francisco
Call says that the author evidently
shares the notion Of certain popular writ
ers that irrigation is only required when
the atmospheric precipitation falls below
a given number OF inches. But the
necessity for irrigation only occasionally
depends on the rainfall. In some coun-
tries, which would be deserts but for If.
rigation, there is quite Il heavy rainfall.
LombarGy, which has been irrigated
| for thousand years, has some twenty
i've lnches-slX inches more than Sacra-
mento; there are twenty-five inches on
| the average in the department OF the
| Bouches du Rhone, where every field is
irrigated; some of the Oldest irrigation
| works IN Spain are in region where the
! rainfall exceeds twenty inches; back OF
| Madras, in India, where every pound of
grain Is raised by means Of irrigation, the
| annual precipitation is nearly fifty inches
Rain, unless it falls at regular intervals
and in moderate quantities at time, saws
the Railway Age, is but little help to
agriculture. At Madras, where twenty
tour inches sometimes falls in single
storm, it is a nuisance to the farmer.
What the earth wants to bring forth its
increase is steady, uniform supply OF
water in small quantities throughout the
season when plants are growing and fruit
is filling out. This is attained in the
eastern states and in northern Europe by
a rainfall which, in the aggregate, is ex-
cessive, but which in the average, is well |
distributed through the growing season.
1t is not attained in the country west OF |
Missouri, even in places where there is
considerable rainfall, because the precipi-
tatlon is not distributed and does not
come ut the precise time when it is
needed.
There is no part of California where the
people are more in earnest about irrigation
than in northern Colusa county, where
they have an annual rainfall of thirty
inches. Gen. Greel Y will find, if he in
quires of the intelligent gentleman who
represents his bureau in this state, that
there are two classes of lands requiring
irrigation here-one, lands which will
yield crops without irrigation, but which
will double their yield under the influence
OF regular supply of water, say, cubic
foot per second to $50 acres, during the
growing season; the other, desert lands
which will yield nothing at all without an
supply OF water, either from a
system OF irrigation works or artesian
wells.

TAKING THE CENSUS.
A Far More Laborious Process Than In
Great Britain.

A Far Moro LaboriouS Process Than In
Great Britain.
The question is often asked. Why
can not the United States census be
taken in one day, as is done in Eng
land and many continental courtriesP
The reasons are obvious on reflection.
In the first place, England. which we
Will take for an example. is q COM
pact nation. all the functions Of gov
ernment being concentrated at the
national capital. The constahulary
is national, and the census Is taken
through it. The skeleton of the BODY
OF enumerators always exists. The
enlargement occurs through the ap-
pointment of temporary constabres,
working with the permanent con-
stabulary force. This gives England
and like conditions exist in other
countries-a force always in existence,
or easily brought into existence, for
census purposes. Each constable is
supplied with proper quantity of
blanks for very small district. These
he distributes one day and collects
the next. They are to be filled out
by the head of the household, and are
to contain the names and facts relat-
Ing to each person living under the
roof at midnight
The United States Government has
no force which can be enlarged to a
proper extent for a one-day census.
This fact alone would prevent our
Government from following the
methods adopted in Europe. But
there Is another reason which would
entirely prevent the adoption OF the
European method. The schedule for
the English and continental censuses
is a very small affair, comprehending
but few Inquiries relating to the
name. relating to the head of the
family. condition (whether single,
married. etc, sex. age at the last
birthday. the profession or occupation,
place of birth. and whether deaf,
dumb or blind. This constitutes the
whole English census. The United
States census comprehends. as we have
seen. very great mum ber of inquiries,
relating to numerous topics. North
