Ffrstborn ChiIdreh Strongest.
It would seem that frstborn children
excel later born children in height and
weight. This may be due to the great
er vigor of the mother at the birth Of
the first child.
In England 1t was found that growth
degenerates as we go lower in the So
cial scale, there being a difference of
even five inches in height between the
best and worst fed classes In the COM
munfty.
An investigation Of 10000 children in
Switzerland showed that children born
in summer are taller for their age than
those born In winter. AS a majority Of
children In the public schools are poor,
In winter their parents are forced to
economize more on account of expense
of heating. Their rooms are also liable
to be small and poorly ventilated, while
in summer they are out in the fresh air.
Food is also cheaper and more varied.
The influence Of unhealthy conditions
on very young child would be much
greater than when it is older and better
able to resist them.-EVerybody's Mag

The father of Florence Nightingale
was William Shore, who assumed by
letters patent the surname of Nightin-

the family property, came from oldsPe-

Sleep ana Dreams,

A German physician says: eThe fact
is women require larger amount Of
sleep than men. The nervous excita-
bility Of the female constitution is gen
orally greater than is the case with the
stronger sex, and woman's sleep is
consequently lighter. Her dreams are
more vivid and leave a more lasting
impression on the memory. Women
addicted to dreaming usually sleep an
hour longer than those who do not
dream. for dreams induce WEAKNESS.
Any one who sleeps without dreaming
rises on the,morFow refreshed from his
couch, which is otherwise not the
case"

Chan0laQ Names.

The city trustees of Redlands have been considering a proposition to change the name of Cajon street to Orange street. The CItograph objects. Why not make the change? And while they are at 1t, they might also change the name of Cajon Pass to Or ange Pass, and Cajon Valley in San Diego county to Orange Valley. And then, to give variety to their work, change the name of San Timoteo Can- yon to St. Timothy Canyon, Rubidoux Mountain to Jones Mountain, San Bernardino to Smithville, Santa Ana River to Brown River, San Gorgonio Pass to Eye Pass. California to Gala Lily. In fact, the name of America might also be changed. Americus was foreigner anyway.
 In 1881 some of the people of River side got up petition to change the name of that place-then a small town-to something or other that sounded more aesthetic. but it didn't succeed.
 First we know the board of city trustees will want to change the Lords Prayer or the Ten Command ments. or the name of Mount Sinai.
 There is history connected with every town and city. and that history should not be interfered with.

international line, on the California side of the Colorado River. water has been diverted through temporary headgate into a canal capable of carrying water for the irrigation of over 100000 acres of land. and later the permanent headgate will be con structed in a blum of cement conglom- crate. through which water will be admitted for the irrigation of the en- tire S00.O00 acres to be placed under the system, this water being first taken into a large natural settling basin from which a series of canals will lead.
 A very large portion of the water is provided with a natural channel in Carter and New Rivers, which lead for more than sixty miles on good grade through Lower California, de- livering the water again at the inter national line for use in irrigating the California lands, thence water is taken in a series of large canals, dis tributed through a series of laterals, and thence into the ditches of the individual farmers, the system being based on an allowance of four acre feet year for all the land under the system.

the Colorado Desert alone making net gains of from five to ten persons a day. while the rate of increase is rising steadily. One year ago the desert was unpopulated. Today about thousand people have their homes on the land, and hundreds of families are only awaiting the arrival of water at their respective farms to take possession and begin the cultivation of the soil. Some remarkable records have been made in cultivating this desert land. Moving on barren ground. within sixty days a number of farmers have had crops of millet grown. harvested and stacked. with growths of corn and sorghum from four to six feet high. Thus the com plexion of the desert is slowly chang ing. and as a result of irrigation un- der the several systems. within a year probably 100000 acres of the delta lands will be under thorough cultivation.

It was some forty-five years ago that army engineers first called the at. tention of the government to the possibility of redeeming the Colorado oelta by using the water of the river for irrigation. But long the project lay dormant, and while it was an ideal line of irrigation development for the government to undertake for the rescuing of its own lands, the venture awaited the initiative of sev- eral private individuals and corpora tions, one of which is constructing canals for the 5OO.OOO acres in South ern California. and the 100000 acres in Lower California under the direc- tion of George Chaffey. c. E.. and member of the Institute of Mechan- ical Engineers of London.
 The task Of making an adequate survey of the 5OO.OOO acres in South ern California has proceeded con tinuously through all degrees of tenn perature. and as closely as possible earlier surveys have been followed, though they serve more to confuse than to assist the work.

Some California FroduCtioas.

The figures relating to the produc- tion of some of California's staple productions are rather startling to the customer who simply knows Cali fornia as a place on the map, and a place where they dig gold" The California Fruit Grower has complied some figures, from which sterling publication We take some of the products of he land for the year 1900:
 The orange and lemon crop was S,964, 900 boxes, or 24,OOO cars.
 The cured fruits, not including prunes, were 94,5SO,OOO pounds.
 The prune crop alone amounted to l74.OOO, 900 pounds.
 The yield of raisins was very small. but the crop amounted to 94,OO0, 900 pounds.
 The pack of canned fruits and vege- tables was S,579.513 cases. exclusive of tomatoes, which added 56,55O cases to the total
 The fresh fruit shipments amounted to 1S2,374.000 pounds. and the fresh vegetables added to this 02,S20,0OO pounds.
 We shipped to the centers of cul- ture in the east 33,064,000 pounds of beans.
 The pack of salmon on the Pacific Coast was 2.995, ,642 cases.
 We made total of 6O,638, 900 pounds of beet sugar.
 The yield of English walnuts-or, more properly, Madeira nuts-was 10.S6O.OOO pounds. and of almonds 5.4SO.OOO pounds.
 Of honey We produced 2,2OS,OOO pounds.
 The production of hops was S6,OOO bales.
 There were made 23,677, ,560 gallons of dry and sweet wines, and S5O,1S5 gallons of brandy.
 The wheat crop. for export, was 20. O.522. 900 bushels.
 The wool clip was 13.352.000 pounds.
 And the gold produced in our mines was worth $15,S63, ,355.
 That is a list of only twenty arti- cles. yet 1t brought in cash enough to make a long and imposing array of figures.

 Der 7th contains a very interesting article on the work now being done quietly by the California Development Company in rescuing from utter worthlessness and making very valu' able. n large tract of land now so widely and favorably known as the Imperial Settlements. Following Is the article:
 No more interesting series of engi- neering problems has been worked out of late than those connected with the irrigation of the Delta of the Colorado River. including lands In Arizona, California and Lower California. Mex leo. At the time of writing. tNovem- Der 1. ls0l,) water Is in use for the irrigation of several thousand acres of land. while 1t is expected that be. fore the close of the coming winter fully 100000 acres will be subject to irrigation.
 The total area which will be brought under irrigation within two or three years on the delta is estimated as fol lows: In Arizona. from several canals leading from the Colorado river. 15O.- 900 acres: in Lower California. from similar canais. 300. 900 acres: in South ern California, from similar canals. 500 900 acres; in Southern California from artesian wells. 10000 acres. This makes a total of 100000 acres of irrigable land where heretofore has been desert and considerably the most forbidding desert on the American continent. That the addition of that vast amount of productive soil. most of which will be devoted to cattle raising. will greatly increase the pro- ductive power of the great Southwest Is already being demonstrated.
 The Colorado River delta includes land which ranges from about 100 feet above sea level to 3S0 feet below the level of the sea. the latter point being the Salton sink, or salt marsh, in Riverside county. California.
 The character of the soil throughout the delta has great uniformity. and 1t is evident that to great extent the deposit of silt. aside from shutting on the gulf water, is responsible for the desert character of the land. In the Southern California section. known as the Colorado desert, alone there is an area of about 75 miles square, not all of which is subject to reclamation, in which no water Is known to exist for the preservation of the lives of the travellers. aside from that which is hauled in by the Southern Pacific railroad and that which is being brought in for irrigation purposes. while the temperature ranges from a maximum of 20 degrees above zero in the winter to a maximum of about li6 degrees above zero in the sum mer. there being six or seven calendar

for the purse of Mine Host McHugh,
