Delsarte Entertainment.

Mis- Ida L. Innes gave Delsarte and
elecutionary entertainment last Friday
evening, Dec 81, ut the Swink hall. She
was greeted by an intelligent and en-
thusiastic audience of ladies. After ex-
planning the nature and object of the
..Delsarte System OF Physical CultuIe,"
it was illustrated by the following pro-
gram:
Recitation, THE World as it is''.
Delsarte Gymnastics. Preparatory Work
to Posing. Posing. Recitations. "Sister

The Delsarte is System OF physical
culture designed especially for ladies.
1t develops the whole muscular system
giving strength and hexibility, ease and
grace. The student is taught how to
stand, walk, sit and rise, enter and leave
a room, open and close door. greet and
receive greeting; in short everything re-
quiring ease and grace of movements.
OF course the strengthening of the whole
muscular system means the making OF a
frail body strong, as it is beneficial to
the health. 1t is ialso a good prepara-
tion for the gesture and expression OF
Elocution. A number OF ladies gave their
names as pupils, we hope many mole
may be added.

The Otero county Horticultural
Board, by J. E. Gauger, Sec, is sending
notices to fruit growers saying that a
necessity exists for requiring every owner
of an orchard to keep the ground clean
and free of weeds, .burrs and trash, and
to spray all trees as soon as the bloom
falls, once in June, and once about the
middle OF July. These instructions are
more in the line of prevention than cure.
The Arkansas valley is comparatively
free from the ravages ofinjurious insects,
and it is the mission of the Horticultural
Board to keep it SO. To aid in this
every fruit grower should be member
OF the Otero County Horticultural So
ciety, and Join his efforts with those of
bis fellow horticulturists in maintaining
the present favorable. condition of or.
chards. The workings of this society
mean much for the future Of horticulture
in the Arkansas valley, and every fruit
grower should lend hand that it be
made as efficient as possible.

Distressing Accident at Ordway.

Last Saturday evening Arthur Morey,
a 14-year-old boy living on the farm of
D, @. Roberts, met with terrible death.
He was out in the fields hunting the
cattle and riding spirited stallion.
From the situation Of the body when
found it is probable that he tied the hal
ter around his waist and was thrown
from the horse. The appearance of the
body when found proved that it had been
dragged by the horse for long distance
and with great violence. A portion Of
new half-inch rope was found around the
boys body, tho other part being tied to
the horse. Both legs were broken and
the body badly bruised otherwise. The
body was brought over to Rocky Ford
Monday morning for burial Mr.. Rob-
erts was in Denver Saturday but came
home Sunday evening, and he and Rey.
1. j. Keator came over on Monday to
see that the remains had suitable burial.
The boy has been living with Mr.. Roberts
for a few months, having no relatives ex-
cept sister residing in Denver.

Irrigation Superintendent Matthew'S
ReU9rt.

VIM. Matthews, superintendent of irri-
cation in Division No. 2, has recently
filed his report with State Engineer Cra-
mer. The report deals with the condi-
tion Of the water supply in Otero, Bent
and Prowers counties.
In those counties Mr.. Matthews re-
ports that the water supply for irrigation
purposes was only about 30 por cent OF
what was actually required inthe bitches.
In Otero county the supply was SO limit
ed that the people had to haul water for
long distances for domestic purposes.
In this connection the accommodation
is made for an amendment to the law SO
as to allow some discretion to the water
officer and to make the penalty more Sc
were for irrigating with water turned in
for domestic purposes.
The other recommendations are for
changes in the boundaries of some of the
bitches so that there can be no conflict of
authority, and SO that the heads of all
the canals in the Arkansas valley can be
under the control of one water commits
sioner; the establishment of gauging sta
tions along the Arkansas river in order
that the officials can tell the quantity of
water that goes through.
A report OF Mr.. Newell of tho geolog-
ical survey is Incorporated. 1t refers to
the big food in the Arkansas valley last
June. At Nepesta bridge, twenty miles
east of Pueblo, there was flow of 30,
coo cubic feet per second. Mr.. Newell
estimates that if such run off could be
collected in reservoir for twenty-four
hours it would be sufficient to cover 169,-
600 acres Of land ono foot deep.
Some curious items about irrigation
are given in the report in connection
with the DEGREES OF courts appropriating
water for each ditch. One ditch is 400
feet long and another 113 miles. One
holds decree for flow of Ito OF cub
ic foot per second, and another for 1852
cubic feet.
Superintendent Matthews believes tho
best plan for the farmers to adopt is to
build reservoirs for themselves ON the ba-
sis Of the Wright law in California.

Does not Irrigation Superintendent
Matthews report, Ia synopsis Of which is
given in another column) convey false
impression as to Otero county farmers
hauling water for domestic purposes?
Where snch condition exists is it not
due to the carelessness of the farmers
rather than to an inadequate water sup
ply? If farmers would provide such in
dividuals reservoirs and cisterns as COM
mon prudence demands there would be
no scarcity Of water for domestic pur-
poses. Water is run in all these canals
in such volume and with such frequency
as to give ample supplies of water to all
who are prepared to store reasonable
amounts. Let not the irrigation system
be blamed for the lack of forethought Of
users of water.

"A cripple boy was in town on Satur-
