This happy couple were born in West

Editor MANNING TINES:
Prof. J. 4. Holmes, State Geologist Of
North Carolina writing to Governor Russell
from Phoenix, Ariz., June 25, says:
Dear Sir-While en- route for the Den
Yer mining convention, am spending !
few days among the Arizona mines, and
have to-day availed myself of an opportun-
ity to examine the methods of irrigation
practlced on the trucking and stock farms
here about Phoenix. Information g1ined
as to two points will interest you.
"Q) BY irrisatins these lands to such
an extent as to keep them fairly moist
these farmers here raise from eight to
clever. tons Of alfalfa (or lpcerc) hay per
acre, cutting from tlree to five crops o.:
hay, and then pasturing tie same field fer
month or two il the late autumn or early
winter. The farmers here suggest
sowing the seed in October The
alfalfa hay is baled and shipped to adJoin-
ing States for both horses and cattle.
'(2) I find here that by irrigating
their strawberry fields the vines continue
to bear all summer long in spite of the in
tense beat. visited one truck farm where
the strawberry vines are now yielding de-
lcions fruit il abundance, and the owner
told NE that these same vines had been
yielding berries for the market since
.Iarch; and he added that he expected tc
be selling berries for two or three months
longer Another trucker told me that be
had made lat year on three acres OF straw
berries. irrigated in this way, Sl,70O after
paying every expense connected with the
cultivation, Irrigation and marketing of the
crop"
Now, why cannot the thousands Of gal
locs OF water, daily running to waste from
the several artesian wells in town be util-
lied in the cultivation of alfalfa Qucern)
and strawberries? Who viii make the ex-
pertinent?
