It's gIeat water resources are being stored by means of immense reservoirs and irrigation canals. Its great forests of pine timber near Flagstaff are being made use of for lumber, and last, but not least, the great territory of Arizona is being grid-ironed by the iron-horse of of commerce, whose whistle sounds the death knell of croakers and announces the progress of enterprise, Arizona Is the immediate "back-country" of Southern California. Its citizens summer with us during the heated term. Its citizens buy thelr goods more and more from us yearly. Its people are wide awake, broad-gauged and honorable, and the people of Southern California should cultivate their acquaintanceship, for they are our neighbors on the east, and their great region of Arizona is our back country .-Sa1e Diego World.

IRRIGATED REGIONS.

Every thinking man knows that the nation'sfarms are becoming exhausted. The area on which crops may be grown without artificial irrigation is already pretty veil occupied Dry farming is lottery. Irrigation means maxi mum crops year after year, and no failures. The great empires of earlier ages have been founded on irrigation agriculture, but Americans have hesitated and doubted until crowded population now forces them to 1t, and these people who are now reaping marvellous profits from small tracts are beginning to realize how much bet ter off they would have been a decade ago if they had known what necessity has finally taught them.
 In the next thirty years, 70,0O0,- 900 people must be located somewhere, as the population doubles every thirty years. Possibly the farms of the older settled states may be subdivided and irrigated, so making each smaller farm more valuable than the original one, but as a rule new people seek new pastures. Moreover, agriculture always is far greater success in an ard region for within the limits of the water conditions are favorably for maximum plant growth Arid Amer lea embraces 1000, 100000 acres. Of this vast area it is estimated that l00,- 100000 acres may be irrigated with the available water supply, and this reclaimable area IS estimated to be capable of sustaining, directly and indirectly, three times the present population of the Union, or 2l0, ,0O0,- 900 pcople.-KansGs City ,Star.

A printing office is usually consider ed arather tough place, and the news paper worker mighty bad man. Statistics, however; 60 not bear out that idea. Of 3S90 convicts in the state penitentiary of Texas there is not a printer or newspaper man, while there are ministers, doctors, bankers, barbers, photographers, bar keepers, preachers, cooks and members of all professions and callings. The printer gets bad name because the nature of his business teaches him to detest shams and he scorns the hypo- crite. Tyler Telegram.

THE COTTON BELT.
The Earnings of the Road Will Soon Be
 Better Says Edwin Gould.

Vice President Edwin Gould, of the Cotton Belt. who has just returned from an inspection trip over the Gould Southwestern properties, talks hopefully of the general situa- ton. He is quoted by il New York paper as saying:
 Our railroads are in a very much improved condition, especially the Cotton Belt, which is due largely to money expended in bettering the physical condition of the road. Many new industries have been de- veloped along this line, and in several cases plants have been moved to our line from other roads on account of its favorable condition. We have begun to lay the main line with 75-pound rails, which will make our expenses heavier tempor- arly, but the expenditures will pay very well in the long run. The track from Tyler to Lufkin, distance of SS miles, has been changed from narrow to standard guage, which now makes the entire line standard guage. Last year we ad- ded 300 box cars to our rolling stock, and we will have to add more next year if we have a large crop
 "'Phe poor earnings of the road are only temporary, on account Of the decrease of the cotton crop. All other business along the line shows q substantial increase. The increase in our operating expenses was due somewhat to the laying of rails, which was charged to that depart- ment. and also to the hauling of lumber, which cost just as much to haul as cotton, and is classed as low class freight. while the former is high class. Regarding the financial situation. generally, the prospects are bright and business seems to he dicking up all over the country
