tte material in finely divided state, so necessary to bring sandy land into a good state of tilth
 Examinations of the mesaat differ ent depths were made to determine the presence of alkali. In no case was sufficient found to be detrimental.
 A chemical analysis of the soil is given side by side with an analysis of soil near Fresno, California, of known fertility The comparison shows the soils to be in many respects similar.
 As to the water of the Colorado river, daily samples have been taken since August lst, 1891. Analysis of the residue left after evaporation are given complete. The tables given show the amount of silt carried by each acre inch of water during each month; The fertilizing value per ton of the silt; a comparison of the values of silt and barnyard manure.
 It was found that nearly all the plant food added by the water is in an available condition, and contains no substance which will be detri- mental to vegetation.
 While the plant food is valuable, the mechanical effect of finely divid ed particles of clay and silt on sandy land will perhaps be of even more value.
 Some of the facts brought out by a study of the tables are most striking The average weight of silt deposited by an acre inch of water (that is, an acre covered one inch deep) during these seven months would be SIS pounds. If thirty acre inches of water were used, more than twelve tons of slit, with fertilizing material valued at sixty cents Ter ton, would have total value of S7.20. That is, the water which, is necessary to grow a crop wonld bring to the land, with out cost, over seven dollars worth of fertilizer. No wonder that irrigated lands are practically iuexhaustible.
 Daily samples are being taken from the Colorado, the Gila and the Salt rivers. The results will be published at the end of the year. An investi- gation of the soils will follow and this examination of the waters. Bulletins will be sent on

Lower California Sulphur Mining and Manufacturing Company.-This company has been organized in this city to work sulphur deposits situated in the Cocopah range of mountains, west of the mouth of the Colorado River, in Lower California, Tn a country which until now has been al- most entirely uninh abited on account of it's sterility, excessive heat, and scarcity of drinking water. As the ground covered by the concession is said to contain valuable deposits of alum and nitre, as we'll as sulphur, and as the distance to tidewater is very short, 1t Is thought that a thriv. ing industry will be formed i'll the until now barren volcanic waste, where even the mail carrier has to take a mule along to carry drinking water for himself and his animals Engineering and Mining Journal
 The above Company will have its headquarters in Yuma, from whence all of its men, supplies and machinery will be shipped. It has one of the largest and best deposits of sulphur in the world, besides the alum, nitre and other minerals and salts which are found on its concession, which covers an area of 2l3,00O acres of land.

The old idea Of 10 years ago was that facial eruptions were due to blood humor," for which they gave potash. Thus all the old sarsa- parillas contain potash, most objectionable end drastic mineral, that instead Of decreasing, actually creates more eruptions. You have mo- ticed this when taking other Sarsaparillas than Joys. It is however now known that the stom- ach, the blood creating power, is the seat of all Vitiating or cleansing operations. A stomach clOgged by indigestion or constipation, vitiates the blood, result pilplcs. A clean stomach and healthful digestion puri1cs it and they disappear
 Thus Joys Vegetable sarsapari.la is compounded after the modern idea to regulate the bowels and stimulate the digestion. The effect is immediate and most satisfactory. A short testimonial to contrast the action of the potash Sarsaparillas and Joys modern vegetable preparation. Mrs. c. D. Stuart, of AGO Hayes St, s. F. writes: "I have for years had indigestion, I tried popular Ssrssparilla but it actually caused more pimples to break out on my face. Hearing that Joys was c later preparation and acted differently, I tried 1t and the pimples immediately disappeared !"

POLITICAL.
Political affairs in this section continue COM
paratively quiet considering the near approach
of election day. 1t is thought that but little
change will be made in the usual democratic
majority in this county. SO far as the repub-
hcans are concerned an effort will be made to
get out the full vote. and this effort will doubt
less be successful, as everything in the party
appears to be working smoothly. They appear
to have no doubt of the election of their candi-
date for Congress and are working for that
result. There is considerable talk among
democrats in regard to getting out their full
vote, but so far as any definite line of action is
concerned there does not appear TO be much in
formation. s. A. NJ.
