THEIR POINT OF VIEW

The peach crop in Missouri Indiana,
Illinois. New Jersey and Delaware is re-
ported to be very badly injured by frost,
and the prospect for good prices for Cali
fornia fruit is good. With ready sale at
tair prices Visalia peach growers will
realize loads of money this year.-Visalia

as conjunction. 1t is never declined.

plural number; agrees with me.-Long

Two thousand acres of the western wa

But it is never too late to reform. Oak

1t is indeed fortunate that the price of

of remaining in the dark, while the peo-
nle in the lighted cars are fullv EXPOSED
to view. Then, again, as these robberies
always take place at night when people
are sleeping in their berths, it is natural
that they, being wide awake. should have
the advantage of people who are suddenly
aroused from slumber.
So far the only 'precaution" which the
railroad and express companies appear in
clined to take for the protection of pas
sangers and employees is to offer a re-
ward for the capture of the robbers. This
is all very well as far as it goes, but it is
too much like locking the stable door after
the horse is stolen. As we have said,
what is needed is some system or plan
that will make train robbery unpopular,
because it is too dangerous. There are
several plans which have been suggested,
all of which have good points. In the
days of stage coaching, it was usual for
the express company to send shotgun
messenger" along with the COACH and
this is still done in some of the terrific
ries. Celtainly so much at least might be
done in the case of trains. The mere
knowledge that there is man on board
who is on the lookout and waiting to get
the drop on the robbers would have de-
teriorating effect on the latter. Another
plan that has been suggested is the using
of pipes by which volume of steam
might be turned on the bandits from
either side of the locomotive. Again, it
would be an excellent idea to have the en-
gine furnished with small search lights
which could be turned in any direction,
and thus place the robbers at great dis
advantage.
Whether one or all of these plans or
any other plan shall be adopted it is GER
tainly high time that something should
be done to lessen the danger of travelling
by rail. The frequency with which these
violent crimes occur in the United States
is a disgrace to our boasted civilization
as well as a reflection upon Yankee in
genuity. 1t is more than probable. how
ever, that as in the case of safe car
couplers the main obstacle lies in the
indispostion of the railroad companies
o incur any extra expense. Still, one
would suppose that it would be cheaper
to provide some such simple means of
prevention as those suggested than to
lose large sums OF money from time to
time, besides the frequent destruction of
cars and the damages which have to be
paid to chose who are killed or injured.

IRRIGATION VS.. RAIN

People reared in countries where rain is
depended upon to moisten the soil are
disposed to regard irrigation with dis
favor. 1t is difficult to remove their idea
that water from the clouds is better than
that which is supplied to land through
pipes and bitches. They are fearful also
that streams ana springs will give out.
and that trees and vegetation will wither
and die.
Rainfall cannot be controlled bv human
power, the rains come when man
thinks they are not needed, ut inoppor-
tune times, and in superhuous or deficient
quantities. Under irrigation, water SUD-
piled to land can be regulated as to time
and quantity. Taking all things into
consideration, farming is less expensive
in localities where irrigation is necessary
than where dependence is upon rainfall.
1t is fact Of history that agriculture
