Near Lamar is located the largest
ranch in the valley known as the
HARD scRABBLE RANCH,
owned by J. f. and ii. W. Koen. 1t con-
tains 50oO acres and has a stone barn
T0xl00 costing sll.oO0. They have a feed
and grist mill, saw mill and combination
fence mill on the ranch for their own use,
and all the buildings. granaries and yards
are made of stone laid in mortar. The
mill grinds feed for stock, and the saw
mill makes up the cottonwood lumber
into posts, dimension and fencing. They
have 5000 bead of cattle, among which
are 200 registered Herefords. In their
hog breeding pens are over GOO spring
pigs. Stock OF all kinds were feeding
upon green alfalfa pastures, which shows
how much earlier the springs are here
than in Iowa Mr.. Koen showed us some
hogs that were almost fit for the market
that had never eaten a mouthful of grain,
but which had been raised on alfalfa,
and bad been wintered upon dry alfalfa
hay, the same as had the cattle. In the
east this may seem funny, but it is true.
Hogs will eat and get fat on nothing but
dry alfalfa hay. Mr.. Koen informed us
that he came here from West Virginia
ten years ago, and even at that date it
was unpleasant, uphill and sometimes
dangerous for man to attempt to irri-
gate his own lands This country had
been practically taken up and controlled
by cattlemen. and while they welcomed
all new comers who would engage in that
business, yet the .old timers" didn't want
any irrigation. fer that meant farming
and fruit culture, which they knew would
eventually drive out the free range for
their immense herds OF cattle. No sooner
would new settler begin constructing an
irrigating ditch than several anonymous
letters would be sent to him containing
the skull and crossbones and few words
warning him to quit the farming or take
take the consequences. II he kept on at
the irrigating ditch, paying no attention
to that threat, he would find crude
scaffold erected near his home some
morning, with the rope hanging there
from, the hangman's moose all made, and
placarded. .'Your fate. if yoh don't leave
this country.n Some left, some quit
farming and still others kept on with
their business, paying no attention TO the
white cap notices. Soon the agricultural
population became the majority, and now
all is peace, and every stockman welcomes
the new settler-unless he be a tramp

LOCATING THE HARBOR
F. NJ. Shaw's Striking Dissertation on Il
Subject

The following contribution to the lit
erature of the harbor question has beer
received from Mr. F. NJ Shaw. who il
more or less known around these parts.
MI ShaWs views are strictly original
ana IN this instance to say the least,
somewhat novel. Considering the dearth
of testimony in behalf of the Southern
Pacific Santa Monica scheme, 1t would
be an act of Kindness for some good
friend of Mr.. Huntington to send a COPY
OF this issue of the Herald to the presi-
dent of the third house at Washington
so that Whatever comfort or assistance
there is obtainable from Mr. Shaw's
brilliant exposition will not be lost to
him. Mr.. Shaw writes:
Editor Herald: One of your STAFF
asked the writer for some bottom facts"
as to the location of the artificial harbor
in this vicinity. While the coast sur
vey was being made by Capt Grey at
Santa Monica. Professor Louis Agassiz
arrived on the coast in his submarine
surveying tour of the world, and his
opinion being asked as to the proper To-
cation of the harbor. he explained him
self in this wise, as near as the writer's
memory serves: AT the period of the
last great glacial epoch, the iceflow from
the high Sierras passed out into the
ocean at certain places and pushed be-
fore it immense submerged plateaus. If
one of these could be found of sufficient
area it would be the ideal place for the
work. From cursory examination one
of these should have flowed into the sea
between Ballona lake and Santa Mon
lea. The writer examined the ground
and found the submerged plateau as
described by Agassiz, about two miles
in extent. from the present shore, i'll
about the shape of a horse foot, as
though an immense horse foot had been
showed out and withdrawn. On this basis
the arrangements have been made to
construct an artificial harbor, contain
ing within its protecting arms, three
square miles of anchorage.

DR.. wilson's Opinion of John G. wooIIey

To the ladies of the Womans Christian
Temperance Union:
NV Dear Ladies-In response to your
inquiry as to what | know of John G.
Woolley, | beg leave to say:
| am personally acquainted with him
and have heard him lecture probably
half a score of times. ] have also heard
John r. Cough and nearly all the speak
ers of national reputation of the last
twenty-five years. From knowledge thus
acquired l regard John G. Woolley as
the greatest advocate of temperance
and prohibition in the world today. and
| believe him to be the greatest that has
ever lived in the world.
The value of ripe scholarship and the
fullest conservation to the Savior, whose
he is and whom he serves, is manifest
in every lecture.
Believing him to be without a peer
upon the platforms of the world, take
pleasure in thus endorsing him. Most
sincerely and respectfully yours.

Pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal
church, Los Angeles. California.

of all the wonderful inventions of the

attracting greater attention and per-
forming more marvellous results among
the sick and afflicted than the little in
trument known as Oxydonor "Viotory."
This is an invention of DR.. Fl. Sanche of
Detroit, Mich. The doctor has given
forty years to experiments upon this
line and expended something like $780,
600 before perfecting the same, but he
has finally succeeded in giving mankind
it's greatest boon. The OXydonor is an
infallible cure for all acute troubles and
chronic cases. often when they are sup
posed to have passed beyond medical
Skill. From the most f1attering words of
praise coming from so many of our very
hest citizens, including leading clergy
men. lawyers, singers and business men,
we can assure our readers that this little
instrument. the Oxydonor victory"
