THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
HANsBRouGH ON IRRIGATION

Senator Hansbrough's speech on tht
hill presented by him providing for
the government appropriation of
money and the sale of certain lands,
for the benefit of irrigation, is re-
gsrded by the friends of the bill as
the strongest argument yet made for
the reclamation of arid lands.
Among the arguments Mr.. Hans.
hrough contended that ito say that we
Shall not use the vast waters that
pour down from the mountain heights
and by applying these waters to land
that would otherwise be worthless,
and making two blades of grass grow
where lone grew before, it to say that
national progress and development has
reached it's end. and we are hence
forth doomed to slow decay. By the
terms of this bill, it proposes to devote
the receipts from the sale of the pub
lie lands. to the improvement of the
arid lands. by conveying that which
is o deserts into fine and fertile
lands and making homes for a multi
tude of people. President Roosevelt
in his message said, and very truly
said: .The storing of the flood in
reservoirs at the head of waters of our
rivers, is an enlargement of our pres
ent policy of river control under which
ievees are built on the lower branches
of the same spring" We are not ask
ing any appropriation to improve riv-
ers or to construct railroads or any
thing of that kind. Private capital
will do all of that. Branch railroad
lines in most instances go ahead of the
settler, towns will spring up in ad-
vance of the ripening of the first crop
New England shall become a party in
interest as we'll as the west, for there
will be increased demands for manu-
featuring products. Pennsylvania and
Ohio will also secure their share OF
The new waters by steel and iron. The
southern cities will have additional
market for their cotton and tobacco
Mr.. Hansbrough produced statistics
and had figures to show that the pop
hlation equaled about one-half of the
total population of the country. which
one-half could find homes among the
vast domain in the west, which, if ir.
rigated, about 100000 acres could
be reclaimed and made profitable.
Mr.. Hansbrough in answer to the
arguments devised by some that the
opening up of this vast tract Of land
would tend to decrease the value Of
farm products, produced figures tt
show that during the last ten years
more than 12,OOO,OOO acres had beer
added to the public domain and farm
products instead of going down have
gone up. He also showed great hen.
efts would accrue by opening up mines
and forests adjacent to the arid re
gion.

CHICKENS in SOUTH AFRICA.
Former Colorado Man Runs Show
Poultry Farm.

]. III. Hildebrandt an old resident
of Denver has struck it rich in South
Africa-not in the gold mines. but in
the chicken and duck business, says
the Denver Republican. About year
ago Mr.. Hildebrnndt conceived the
idea of Introducing American methods
of raising poultry in that country. and
established the Good Hope Poultry
Farm, which has become one of the
show places of the vicinity of Cape
I town. 1t covers ten acres, about tve
miles out of the city. The product or
the ranch is entirely dressed poultry,
chickens and ducks. No eggs or live
chickens are sold. The finest stock OF
ducks and Black Hamburg fowls are
imported and used for breeding. The
eggs are placed in incubators, the
Matching plant having a capacity or
500 eggs month. The incubators are
of American make and are In charge
of expert incubator men from Penn
sylvania. They have made IL record
of Matching and saving eighty-tive per
cent. of the chickens and ducklings
from eggs set, and the product of the
farm Is about 10000 dressed pOults II
year Mr.. Hildebrandt obtains the
highest price for his entire product
without difficulty. Another American
novelty he has introduced is lucernc
or alfalfa, of which there, rs here,
three or four crops Il year can be
raised. His American vegetable gar
den, with green corn, is another source
of wonder to the natives.
On this ten-acre tract Mr.. Hide
brandt lives in great comfort, his Ell.
terprise having proved thorough
financial success. His brother, George
Hildebrandt, who works in the mail
ing department of the Republican, re-
Gently received copies of two of the
Capetown newspapers, both of which
contained glowing accounts of the
wonderful success of j. III. Hide

There is certain brilliant young
lawyer in Brooklyn with a reputation
for ability in "rattling" witnesses who
had the tables neatly turned on him
in damage suit the other day. A
prominent Heights physician testified
as to the character of the injuries nus-
tanned by the plaintiff, and the yoang
lawyer was seeking to ridicule his tes-
timony. The physician had said that
the plaintiffs brain and spinal cord
had been injured and that the injury
to the brain was manifested by an in
creased knee jerk.
Now, see here, DOCTOR" said the
lawyer, going through series of phys
ical contortions. chiefly with is knees,

BOOKER wAsHlNeroN's HOME.
Great coIored Educator Buys Boston
Residence.

The estate on Main street, near Co
lumbar, known as the Quincy Loud es-
tate. at South Weymouth, Massa-
chusetts. has been purchased by Book
er Il. Washington, the well-known col
ored educator. says the Boston Globe.
The property comprises about two
acres of land n modest two and one
half story structure. with large stable
adjoining. The house is quite old and
will be thoroughly remodcled before
Mr.. Washington takes possession. The
land is adapted for farming, having
been used for that purpose for II num-
her of years.
The estate is situated in the resi-
dental part of the village and is near
the spacious residence of II. Il. Reed
and the Minot Tirrell place on Main
street.
President w. ii. Baldwin. Jr., of the
Long Island railroad is understood to
have been the agent acting for Mr..
Washington, and the transaction was
consummated before the residents of
the village realized that they were to
have such distinguished neighbor.
Mr.. Washington has two children at
tending schools in the vicinity of Bos-
ton. and from what could be learned
from various sources in the village it
is the intention of Mr.. Washington to
pass only the summer months there.

nlnD TRULY A WONDERFUL THING

Inventor Saw Pos.iblIiti~s In n uar-
nosaei cyclone.
1t was during the portion of his
career when he lived in the valley OF
the South Fork Of the Big Sunfiower
river that Henry Plymshaw, the in.
ventor. made his most notable inven.
ton. This invention had to do with
cyclones.
One afternoon Inventor Plymshaw
saw splendid specimen of a funnel
cyclone coming over the prairie. and
he called to me and said we would go
out and study it, since it was evident
that 1t was going to one side. The
instant the cyclone sighted us it
came straight in our direction. We
weren't prepared for this exactly, so
all we could do was 10 run. We were
just on the point of giving up. when
a most extraordinary thing happened.
Curious thing. Sort of natural, too.
That cyclone stepped down fifty
foot well. And there it was. Only
one leg. and that down a ffty-foot
well in the middle of sheep pasture.
II it had two legs no doubt it could
have scrambled out, but it couldn't
make it with one. Couldn't do any
thing except revolye. And it did do
that. never saw a cyclone revolve
like that one. Mad. apparently. be-
cause 1t had missed Plymshaw and
me, and got caught. So 1t Just buzzed
around like top. Nothing in the
world to stop it.
Most men-mere men of action
would have been satisfied at get
ting away and not having to revolve
with the houses and lots; but not
Plymshaw. No; he got to thinking,
and what was the result? Put a belt
around the stem Of that cyclone just
at the top of the well. set up dyna-
mo. strunk wire, and ran all the ma
chinery and electric lights in that part
of the country. Regular Niagara for
power. Going yet. Nothing to stop
it. you see. Wonderful what thing
