IRRIGATION IN NEVADA.

Nevada is waking mp to the value
Ut irrigation. The success Of the
Irrigation district Of California in
making the waste lands fruitful has
shown the value of the system and
;ndicltcd to some extent the. means
by which it may he carried out.
The meeting at Reno hast Saturday
night showed the strong interest
aroused in the subject in Nevada. It
was addressed by numbers of the
leading men in the State. 1t resulted
in the formation of a strong organiza-
ton of $50 representative mon to fur
Their the work of bringing water to
lamb ..,...,-. ..,.. ...r....
There is no State in which irriga-
ton is more needed than in Nevada,
and there is no State in which it
would show more important results.
Tho desert plains of Nevada are bare
for no want Of natural fertility. Tho
sDil is rich in the natural elements of
Ialantfood. II needs only water and
cultivation to make the land as high
" productive as any In the world.
The task of bringing wator to the
f,lains of Nevada is Herculean one,
from the immense extent Of the land
that requires irrigation. The prob
l,m is made still more difficult of solu-
zion by tho scarcity of sources OF
supply. Il is not probable that enough
Tsatcr can be got to i7rlgate the. whole
OF the desert or that capital can be
found for some time in the future to
convey it the long distances neces-
s;ary if the water supply can be found.
t;ltt a great tract can undoubtedly
be reclaimed. with tho water near at
hand and the money that con be
raised.
III the work is pushed with judy
ment and energy Nevada will in
smother decade make showing Us an
agricultural and mining State. Her
lands will undoubtedly prove as great
source of wealth us her mines, and
will give larger and staple popula-
hon. 1t is encouraging to see the
citizens taking the work in hand Of
themselves without waiting the slow
movements Of the general Govern
n,ent-tCnrson Appeal.

RATS CARRYING EGGS.

An Omaha Man Watches tho Perform.
anco nnd Describes 1t. ..,.-.
L. L. Cloud, of Omaha, in u Chicago paper
says: Last summer the girl kept complain
ing that she could never find any eggs in
the barn. I did not thinlRmucho of it at first,
but finally when the complaint. was repeat
ed almost every dayI began TO thing it was
rather strange that we should not get more
than three or four eggs when we had as
len3t five dozen hens, and so determined to-
look into the matter. 1t was more than O
week, though, before l solved the mystery,
and then 1t was merely by accident. Twas.
standing in the barn one Sunday morning
when hon came cackling from her most in
the Manager, and few minutes after q big
rat came from his hule, run across the barn
and climbed into the Manager. I could hear
him, and was idly watching to see what he
was doing, when you can imagine my sur
prise to soc him rolling tho egg In front of
him toward the edge ef the manager. After
good many efforts no finally succeeded
He paused there, gathering tho egg up UNI
der his "chin;" he rolled hifaselS complete
~ around II, resembling tho form of n
hedgehog when alarmed, then he deliber-
ately rolled over tho edge Of the Tuanger,
and dropped squnrely on his back on the
floor, two feet below, thus saving the egg
whole. immediately he began to squaal
with all his strength, rnd just as Twas
starting to put him opt Of his misery, think
ing he had broken his back IN the fail, two
other rats appeared on the scene. They ran
up to tho Ai'sE one, as no lay on the floor,
and each sefzlng ho1d Of hind leg began to
drag tIm, egg and oil, across the barn. just
"a they reached the hole, and tho first old
griszied follow disappeared, pushing the
egg in front of him, it dawned on me that I
had at last found out where our eggs bad
