clHTRAI KANSAS IRRIGATION.


SV"hvy ouA'VyVA =. " Ason'
whose enthusiasm as an advocate Q
irrigation is well known and who ha
written on that subject for tn
REFLECTOR, has an interesting con
tribution in the current number o
Irrigation Age, the leading magazin
Of the country devoted to irrigation
! It is entitled Central Kansas Enter
prise" and is as follows:
Irrigation in central Kansas is yer
in the experimental stage, and thu
advocates Of intense farming and srti
fetal wetting encounter many skep
tics, who take a pessimistic view o.
the whole business. Fortunately, We
have a liberal percentage Of live, pro-
gressive farmers, who understand the
situation and possibilities, and will
this season demonstrate the profits Of
irrigation.
Hon. c. B. Hoffman, Of Enterprise,
has 12O acres under ditch, leased in
small parcels to partical irrigators
from Colorado, at an annual rental Of
ten dollars per acre. For motive
power he is utilizing the Enterprise
mill dam on Smoky Hill river, oper-
sting on Mango centrifugal pump
Of 100000 gallons per hour capacity.
M. M. Whitlaw, Of Abilene, has a
No. 5 link belt ELEVATOR Of 700 gallons
per minute capacity, and is wetting
twenty-five acres in the Smoky Hill
bottom, pumping direct from the river
and distributing through burrows and
laterals. There are other link belt
and wind mill pump and reservoir
plants that will demonstrate the pos
sibilities Of upland irrigation.
The ditch or canal system in vogue
in the mountain districts is with us
impracticable, because Of high banks,
low gradients and long conduits. As
expressed by Prof. Carpenter, Of Col
orado Experimental Station, Kansas
must develop her own system, which
will be the lifting process from the
steams and wells, and by individual
effort.
This system may have its defects
and cost little more, but it leaves
the farmer freed from the domination
Of an overshadowing corporation. He
maintains his individuality, is indie
pendent, and dictates his own policy
1t is conceded that our crop fail
ures are largely due to lack Of mois-
ture in the sub-soil. This defect, we,
in Kansas, propose to remedy WHEREBY
er practicable, by arresting the sur
plus water in its mad haste to reach
the Gull Of Mexico, and splitting it
out over the fields in the fall, winter
and early spring, thoroughly saturat-
ing the sub-soil and making deposit
II moisture that will honor the drafts
sure to be made upon 1t in the hot
months Of summer.
When every farmer shall have his
'lant Of five to twenty acres or more,
IS he will in the near future, giving |
lin assured living for his family, |
Kansas will evolve the most thrifty |
md Independent rural population and
levelop the best country on earth

AN EXPERTS VISIT
To the Copper Mines in the DragOOn Mountains of Sy-
 dow and Garrett.

NIT. John Curry, the expert who has been m the civ and made an exam ination oi the Sydow and Garrett cop per mines in the Dragoon mountains, upon which Mc,srs Gird and O'Gor- man have aa option, returned to Cal iornia today.
 Mir. Curry is an elderly gentleman of pleasing address, and well yersed on current topics. He was taken 10 the promising property yesterday hy the owners, Messrs. Sydow and Garrett, and remained at the mlne over night, the party returning this morning about 10 80 Mr. Curry did not hes itate to express himself as well pleased with Jhe excellent showing and i'm. mense amount oi ere in sight, speak ing of the prospects Of the mine in the highest terms. Such a declaration, coming as i, does from an experienced mining expert, and one who has served 9 years oi travelling and ex- porting for his company, carries with it much weight, inasmucL as he is rather conservative and does not speak iayOrably oi mine without merit, and confirms the many opinions of miners who have seen the property that the mines would prove bonanza for company.
 MT. Carry represents English cap ital, and his company have purchased upon his recommendation, many mines both in the United States and Mexico that have since placed mil. lions in their cofTers. Being a very successful and shrewd mining man, Mir. Curry is kept continually on the go by hi, associates. He i- very much impressed with our section, in fact so mnCh SO that he will return to Tomb stone within mouth, if not sooner, and make il point 10 remain for some time as he thinks there are great possibilities here.
 The gentleman intended remaining here until Monday but about an hou. before stage time telegram was re- ceiyed and his visl; cut short, being called 10 Los Angeles on urgent bus iness and left on the outgoing stage for tbat point. He took plenty oi samples from the group and will sub init A report in due time, which being favorable will doubtless be the means of opening the mines ID on large scale

A petrified man has been found in the river near Phoenix. The Star says he has been already identified as a late solid business man of Prescott, and one whose solidity increased with the passing years. It is believed that he was petrified with astonishment at the surprising changes and improve ment going on in the valley of the Salt. There is nothing else in the air or water Of that climate which would turn a man to stone.

Editor of Planet
On Monday night, the both inst, the
officers of Winston, n. c., brought
down on the Z :35 train, a coiored man
named Tuttle, who it was said shot
and killed Policeman Vickers of VIM
ston, Saturday night. Tuttle was ar
rested and no pistol was on his person.
But the hyenas who were so anxious
to kill Negroes would have it their
way but could not lynch Tuttle in For
syth county, if he had killed the OFF,
Ger, because Of 500 Negroes who have
pluck enough to back their judgement.
Thus he was brought to Greensboro.
Two hundred bill posters from Green's
boro, having their tickets were told
that no Negroes could go, but they
having tickets went on and got seats.
Then the agent at Winston refused TO
sell other colOred men tickets. They
hope TO lynch Tuttle in Guilford coun-
ty. But being on to violators of law
and order. we had our Winchesters
and revolvers in readiness and took
our station near the Jail house await
ing, but the lynchers did not come
Monday night. Tuesday night, we had
| $50 Negroes ready by 80 p. Nj and
were stationed and ready at the alarm
| of our pickets to shed enough blood of
the mob 70 make up for two cOlOred
men taken from jail under Cleveland's
| first administration. We are not sorry
they did not come by any means but
shall be ready when they cai1 again on
Wednesday night. They carried Tut
tie TO Charlotte, n. c., where he
thought he would be safe until his
trial comes Off. Sheriff J A Haskins
turned of a guard named Warricl
who said that if the mob came hs
would give up the keys without shoot
ing. The sheriff and one deputy stay
ed in jail Monday and Tuesday night
we'll armed. You can see that th'
readers of the PLANET are adherinl
to your cry for Winchesters for pro
lection. No ammunition could b
bought at the hardware stores Tues
day only one short one. None of tn
old firms would sell but we had enoug
to shoot one thousand times and de
pended upon that.
