To Start at Yuma.

It is reliably reported that San Diego county is to have the first bene- fit from the passage of the arid lands bill by the last Congress for the reclamation of the arid lands of the West and the building of irrigation systems. Judge l.. l.. Boone, who returned recently from New York on railroad business, received informa- tion to this effect from an officer of the coast and geodetic survey who was on his way West to assist in the work.
 The plans of the department regard ing the reclamation of the desert DOT ton of this country are on much larger scale than those of the Imperial projectors, according to the officers statements The entire district be- tween Yuma and Needles is to be sur yeyed for this purpose with view Of drawing water from the Colorado River for the irrigation of these lands Not only the lands below sea level are intended to be irrigated, but also those higher up. If feasible the water will probably be taken out of the Colorado River above Yuma and dis
 
 Two surveying parties are to be put in the field, if they are not in the field already. One will start at Yuma and work north, and the other will begin at Needles and work south. The country will be thoroughly ex- plotted and, the feasibility of the pro- iects determined. There are more than a million acres on the desert which it is claimed are susceptible to irrigation and need only water to make the land as productive as any in the country.
 The success of the Imperial project and the great volumes of water that go to waste in the Colorado River, has called the attention of the gov ernment officials to the desert sec tion, particularly, as one of the best places to begin the work under the new act. The Imperial canals reach several hundred thousand acres, but there is vast tract that cannot be supplied from this source. The sur veys will be made for the purpose of having water brought onto other tracts if possible. The surveys will be made in San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
 On the first of July the sum of $5,OOO, ,000 became available for the work, and there will consequently be no lack of funds for making the surveys. The details of the project have not yet been received in this city. Should the plans be carried out it will mean an immense devel- opment in the entire eastern part of the county.-San Diego Union.

Wants the Old Spelling Book.

Colonel A. B. Hotchkiss in Public Economy: The other day boy on Strand street, within the district where we voted $12,0O0 bonds to build a new schoolhouse recently, had some fox terrier pups which he wanted to sell, so he wrote the follow ing notice and posted it on the fence in front of his house:
 "Fox terrier puDps for sale"
 Another party on the same street had a wagon for sale on which he placed g sign:
 "For sale Price ' dollers."
 At the time the editor of this paper was going to school if a boy had exhibited such weakness as this in spelling he would have been laughed at for ignorance. But we have noticed that under the new fangled methods employed in our modern schools and seminaries they turn out very poor spoilers. Yet in Los Angeles they want to vote $200,- 900 for polytechnic high school. Better come back to the old spelling book and have some old-fashioned spelling-bee once in a while.

MOSQUITOES YELLOW FEvEl
Destructive Eject of the Insects Bit
Up0n Human Health ScIen-
tthcaIIy Considered.

A more serious charge than that d
spreading malaria is brought agains
the mosquito in Century, the write
being the chief entomologist of the de
partment of agriculture.
1.-THE latest news, which comes to III
with the authority of the yellow fevet
commission of the United States army,
would seem to indicate that, great as
are the discomforts which MOSQUITOES
occasion through their termenting
bites, and great as is their destructive
effect upon human health through the
transfer of malaria, they exert still
another and most malefieent influence
by the transfer of yellow fever. The
immediate cause of yellow fever is still
disputed. Neither the Bacillus X of
Sternberg nor the Bacillus ieteroides
of Sanerelli now seems to be the
causative organism of this terrible dis
ease, and the true nature of the germ
for it is germ-disease-is yet to be
ascertained. The experiments Of last
summer and winter made in govern
ment hospitals in Cuba show with
reasonable degree of certainty that
mosquitoes which have bitten patients
suffering with the yellow fever may,
and do, upon biting healthy persons,
convey the disease. In each case, how
ever, it is not Anopheles which is the
active agent in the transfer but spe-
cies of Culex known as Culex fasciatus,
or Culex raeniatus, a form which,
while it has always been placed in the
genus Culex, seems, according to Theo-
bald, the English authority, to present
structural differences of sufficient inn
portance to warrant the erection of a
new genus called Stegomyia. Should
the careful experimentation which
will follow prove the validity OF this
discovery of our army medical men,
the true germ of yellow fever will
probably prove to be a protozoon-
that is to say, an animal-instead of
one Of the bacteria-that is to say, a
plant. Possibilities of the establish
ment of such a truth are far-reaching
for inhabitants of tropical regions,
and its influence upon some of our
new insular possessions will be great"
