She Claims to be Leading Every

She Claims to be Leading Every
County in the State.
Fort VALLEY, Ca, Jan. 4.-Georgia is
attracting more universal attention at pres
emit than any other southern state, and
Houston county is leading every county in
the state. Not day passes but what some
northern or eastern man is here inspecting
the county's multiplicity OF resources. ana
scarcely week passes but that people from
other states invest in lands III this county.
w. H. Breidenstein, a capitalist Of Bellairs.
O., has been here some weeks making q
thorough investigation OF this section.
He purchased lands with syndicate here
last year. and his inspection on this visit re-
suited in his buying 1000 acres on his own
account last week, which be will improve
at an early date.
On Jan IA about fifty Ohioans will visit
Fort Valley for q few days, and as some 10
the party have options on lands here it is
almost settled that they will purchase
large area.
Contiguous to Fort Valley there is nearly
ten square miles of peach trees, and this
space is growing daily.
For some weeks past there has been
great exoduss OF negro farm tenants and
laEorers from this county to Oklahoma. 1t
Is estimated that fully 500 have de arted for
that state, which causes a scarcity of farm
hands here, which makes many farmers
here commence this years crop with insult
ficient labor and they can see no way Of
securing ell the labor they want. The fruit
growers are thinking of importing foreign
labor to cultivate their orchards, and harvest
the immense fruit crop they expect 10 have
this year, as the winter has been more
favorable SO fer for good fruit crop than
it has been in years before. Again the full
moon comes on March ?, tue time and
month when the peach cop is generally
killed. With cold weather at intervals
from now until the full moon in March a
heavy peach crop is a certainty.
Maj. Glessner, commissioner of immigra-
tiou Tor the Georgia Southern aud Florida
railroad, is doing good work for Houston

had he ceased his graceful exhibition before
ne was seized by g party Of fellow brokers
and ridden violently around the room to
the tune of "See~ the Condueriug Hero

hero to any great extent. Every time his
merry steed pranced you could see the num-
oers on the big keno board between their
shoulders and Halstsad's trousers L. was
worse than riding clothes horse.
Then Cappe struck mp the Virginia reel,
and wild reel II was. A vigorous rush was
made and q space cleared for the occasion.
Then two score or more members gave an
imitation Of the ''Sir Roger de Coverley :"
Occasionally a misguided man would 90
wrong, and then half dozen Of his fellow
dancers would make rush and drag him
remorselessly into the right path. An
ordinary woman would never have survived
that dance. Highland fings without num-
Der followed each other IN rapid succession,
varied occasionally by dreamy waltz. All
around the vast room individual members
could be seen wrestling. tugging, smashing
and having good time generally. In the
meantime the pretty girls up in the gallery
had enjoyed themselves to the utmost. They
had laughed until they could laugh no
longer at the antics of the brokers, aud
were wondering what could happen next.
Suddenly big red foot ball scared TO the
ceiling and came down with thump within
a foot of Isidor Worlnser's nose. 1t was fol-
lowed ty another and another, and pretty
soon the air was alive with flying balls. One
OF them described q grand parabole and
came down sQuarely on the ribbons OF a
young woman's hat in the gallery. She
shrieked with delight. Then she pitched the
ball up and made one Of those queer stabs
which girls in general designate as throw
ing. The ball went vaguely out over the
crowd and hit fat man on top of the head.
The fat man picked it up, took careful aim !,

Tney gradually disappeared, however. as
half an hour later the exchange was com-
paratively quiet. Then the brokers began
to think about contracts. While the gallery
crowd slowly surged for the exits they
gathered around the various posts and
howled their bids in perfunctory way. At
- o'clock the exchange closed and the
neighboring cafes were filed to Overlooking

THE IRRIGATED LANDS OF WASHINGTON
Hut n Few Years viii Lapse Ere the
Desert Lands of This state VIII
Be "a Thing OF the Past.

Seattle Press Times: Although many
thousands of acres have already been re-
claimed in the central part of the state,
the present season will witness hundreds
Of thousands additional made fruitful by
a plentiful supply Of water.
The great Sunnyside canal in the Yaki-
ma valley will have its present length Of
forty miles extended to sixty-two before
the end of the summer, and one-third
more land than is now covered by it will
be reclaimed. The great Palouse ditch.
which is to fertilize Adams and franklin
counties, has been begun and will be
pushed to completion as rapidly as pos-
sibIe. Work Is soon TO be commenced on
the Kittitas valley canal, which will be
eighty-two miles in length and will render
fertile thousands of acres. Besides these
larger irrigating bitches, numerous small
Ter ones will be constructed, among which
is one that will encircle Pasco, and one
in Wenatchee's fruitful vale.
In addition to the bitches, many ar.
tesian wells will be sunk for irrgatiny
purposes. In the Mckee valley particu-
larly this plan has been found TO work
admirably. and as an abundance Of ar
tesian water has been obtained in that
section wherever search has been made
for it, it is possible that this method of
obtaining water supply there will he
practiced altogether.
Another method coming into vogue
among owners OF arid lands along water
courses in Yakima county is to raise the
water from the streams by means OF water
wheels or steam pumps, to some point on
the adjacent farms from which it can be
distributed whenever needed. This is
one Of the cheapest methods that can be
employed, but unfortunately its practi.
cability is limited to very narrow area
along the rivers.
At the present rate of reclamation il
will be but few years until the desert
the lands of Washington will be thing oil
past. Fruitful orchards and vineyards
and productive fields of hops and grain
will take the place Of the native sagebrush
and bunch grass.

An Oregon snake Story.

The Dalles Times Mountaineer: Miss
Adams, who lives near Silverton, Marion
county, went horseback riding the other
day. Her saddle had been hanging all
winter in the barn, and she noticed the
seat OF the saddle appeared as though a
stick might be under it, but could not be
removed without ripping the saddle.
After riding for several miles the horse
became suddenly frightened and began
to rear up and plunge. Upon looking
around she discovered a snake crawling
from the saddle, and with its head strik-
ing at the horse and then at her. Realiz-
ing her situation she jumped to the
ground. Holding the horse with one
hand she killed the snake with club she
held in the other. 1t was found to be a
black rattlesnake three feet long. and was
entirely too much warmed up to be a
comfortable companion.

gaS- We call the attention Of the County
Commissioners to the almost impossible con-
dition of about so ylrds of the road on
Tinker Creek, about q mile and half from
town. 4-mule team with 90 bushels oi
cotton seed in the wagon were stalled in
that bog n few days ago. Our town author.
tiles should interest themselves about it, as
no one will come to town over that road, il
they can avoid it by trading some where
else. 1t would pay the town we'll TO have
that place put in permanently good con
dition. Good roads to town are the most
attractive advertisement for the country
trade.
