PROFESSOR HILGARD RETURNS Took a Prominent Part in the Irriga-
 tion Convention at Denver.

BERKELEY, July 2L-Professor B. W. Hilgard, head of the department of agrt- culture in the University of California, returned yesterday from Denver, where he had been to attend a national conven- tion of agriculturists, called to discuss the question of irrigation. Professor Hll- gard reports that the convention will have no direct bearing upon the interests of California agriculturists. He says that the purpose of the meeting was to ad- wise Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture as to the present state and conditions of irrigation, in order that he might have in view the needs of different sections of the country when issuing bull letins upon that subject. The bulletins, to be published in pamphlet form, will be issued as occasion demands, Congress having recently appropriated sl0,OOO for that purpose.
 As one of the representatives from Cali, fornia, Professor Hilgard was regarded as a special authority upon alkali soils, and the Denver Republican speaks of his address before the convention as one or the most important given there.
