government would make the arid lands available for new settlers in the west. All the speeches in congress have had IS their key-note the argument that the government ought to provide homes for the homeless in the eastern states. There has never been q single sngges- ton in congress that the government could be expected to embark upon the policy of reservoir construction for the benefit of lands already settled. How long would it take to vin over our na- tional law-nakers to this theory when after years of agitation there is little psreeptible inclination to do anything for the public lands?
 Again, Arizona has been united ii the effort to obtain an appropriation for reservoir on the Gila river, at San Carlos or The Buttes, it being hoped that the advantages accruing to the In dians on the Pima reservation would influence congress to favorable action. The effort has been earnestly seconded during the past two years by all the great influence of the department of the interior. And still. nothing tam gible has been accomplished. This coming session our neighbors from the Gila will again go before congress ask ing for the appropriation What will be the result if against them there is opposed delegation asking for an ap
 propriation for the Salt River valley ? Can it be supposed for moment that congressman will refrain from saying "Go home sod settle your differences"
 Eliminating the difficulty that would
 be involved io opposing the people from the Gila, the task would be no easier. The facts would have to come out. It could not be concealed that there are approximately 300,000 acres already under ditch in the Salt River valley which would demand water
 before a supply could be furnished to
 new lands. It could not be concealed that the capacity of any reservoir avail
 able for the valley would be taxed for 1 years to come in supplying the land: already claiming water. One of the most foreeful arguments made in con gress against the San Carlos appropria. tion--and 1t was repeated by many
 was that 8 canal com pany near Floreucs
 would benefit bg the construction 0
 the reservoir. How much more weigh
 eoaid be'in the argument against !
 Salt River reservoir, that all the landi
 to be supplied are under canals alread.
 constructed? It could not be concealel from congress that this valley has as sessed wealth approaching ten millions of dollars. It would be folly to expec . anything but ridicule from congres should we ask for an appropriation fo our benefit from the national treasury : No child chasing moonbeam eve r pursued less substance than is cou ] tained in the assertion that this com } Inunity can get money for storage froi
 the federal treasury.

TIE COMING ORANGE CROP.

There are two interests at work es- timating the Southern California or ange crop for 1901-2. The one ele- ment is desirous that prices shall rule low, and hence they predict an increased crop and place the figures al 26,OOO carloads of oranges and lemons.
 The growers, on the other hand, de- sire to get good prices and hence it is to their interest to show that the coming crop is not so large as it was last year.. This element predicts that the crop of oranges and lemons will be less than last year. The Riverside Press has sent letters of inquiry to leading orchardists in various locali- ties, and the replies received warrant that paper in placing the coming crop at less than 10000 cars The Redlands Citrograph- ph-usually well posted in such matters through it's talented edi-

ALFALFA AND BEEF CATTLE.

We publish on another page eX- partment of Agriculture on the Gull tivation of Alfalfa. The cheap and fertile lands of the Imperial country are especially adapted to the cultl- vation of this plant and therefore af- ford remarkable advantages for stock raising of all kinds. The following in teresting article on the value of al falfa to the beef cattle industry is copied in full from recent copy of the Tulare Times:
 The price of beef cattle, and of milk, cream and butter, is going to make the alfalfa lands of the San Joaquin valley very valuable in the future. Already the free range IS practically exhausted in every part or the country and the drouths that af- flict the arid region makes it very great speculation to undertake to grow cattle there. The population of the United States is increasing very rapidly and all are beef eaters, con- seuuently there is not the slightest risk in an over-supply of beef cattle. '' The irrigated portions of the valley can be put to no more profitable use than in growing beef for market. The present price of land is low when the amount of feed that can be taken from it is taken into consideration. Land that will produce alfalfa and that can be irrigated when desired, is cheap at $6O per acre, yet such lands can be bought for much less money. It is really orLunate thing that this is true, for the reason that many new people are now arriving in the State and it will be a great thing for Cali fornia if they are able to purchase first-class land at something less than it is really wor~--.
 The best investment in the State is the citrus land along the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada mountains, but the quality of that sort of land IS limited. More money is required to bring an orange grove to the point where it will pay than in almost any other agricultural pursuit, which makes the sort of buyers for that sort ol land not overly plentiful. It also requires considerable capital to get a deciduous orchard into bearing, but an alfalfa ranch is something that can be made to pay in very short or der.

SALOON LICENSES.

The Board of Supervisors at a re- cent meeting adopted an ordinance which provided that hereafter each precinct in the county outside of in corporated cities, shall have the right to say whether or not the Board of Supervisors shall consider an applica- tion for a saloon license within such precinct The voters of each pre- cinct have this question now under their control and the question is to be submitted to the people at the gen eral election in November, 1902 and pending such vote no licenses will be granted outside of the incorporated cities. The people will therefore have this question within their own hands.
