Increasing Irrigation

It requires a wide range of reading to learn all that is going on now in many parts of even the southern and middle western states in irrigation work. In Louisiana and Texas rice growing has been greatly stimulated by the use of artificial irrigation, and great industry is thus gradually be- coming developed in that section of the country. Irrigation is also em- ployed to a large extent by the truck farmers of New Jersey. The value of irrigation in the eastern states will in this way soon become known, but not only will crops be saved by irrigation but vastly increased as farmers become familiar with this system of supplant ing the rain fall in time of need.
 The agricultural departm ent of the United States is doing wonderful work for the whole country, and more particularly the arid and semi-arid states, in giving accurate information, based on ample experience, as to how to conserve water and make it effective by better methods of getting it upon the land and in using it wisely in irri gation.

Simple Indeed.

It seems as if the acme of frugality had been reached by French officer who explained with many appropriate gestures his system of sustaining life on pension of five francs week.
 Tt is simple. vcree, veree simple" he said to the friend who had ex- pressed amazement at his feat. "Sun- day l go to Ze house of good friend, and zere dine so eXtraordinaire and eat so veree much zat l need no more till Wednesday,.
 ''On zat day have at my restau' rant one large. veree large, dish of tripe and some onion. l abhor ze tripe yes, and Ze onion also-and togezzer zey make me so seek as have no more any appetite till Sunday. You see, it is veree simple"

TIMBER LANDS BOUGHT
Purchase Made in Plumas County by
 an Eastern Lumberman

T. B. Walker, the millionaire lum- herman of Minneapolis, has just closed a deal by which he secures from the Sierra Plume and Lumber Company 65,000 acres of the best timber lands in Northern Plumas county. Mir. Walker has been quietly examining the tract for the past month. It is understood he paid SIS an acre for the land. It is interesting to note that four corps of engineers are making a very thorough survey up the North Fork and along the east branch of the Feather river from Oroville.
 The work indicates transcontinen- tai road, but a short branch from it passing through Indian valley and into Big Meadows would tap the big timber belt, part of which Mr.. Walker has purchased. The million aire lumberman is supposed to have intimate business relations with J. J.. Hill, the railroad magnate, and it is therefore surmised that the big land purchase sand the railroad survey are closely associated.
 The maximum grade up the North Fork and east branch, as determined by the Kennedy survey in 1893, is 70 feet per mile.

Fruit at New York

Offerings of deciduous fruit at auc- tion, in New York last week amounted to l03 cars,or practically Ithe same as the proceeding week. This. however, is twenty-four cars more than the cor responding week last season. At the sale of twenty-eight cars on Monday, Bartletts exhibited considerable firm ness, particularly on good shipping stock, and plums ruled higher than last sale, but peaches, owing to heavy arrivals from Delaware and Maryland, were reactionary in tone. Later sales did not show as good results, especi- ally on ripe Bartletts, on which some very low prices were realized, put the market closed firm on this variety and prospects are favorable for better re- suits next week.
 Citrus fruits have not cut much of a figure, only five cars of Valencias sell- ing, as compared with eighteen cars of oranges and eleven cars of lemons duing the same week last season. The market has been well sustained, with a good demand for limited quantities of fancy fruit medium sizes in the above variety, ranging fom $6.371a to $7 for the best lots. The lemon market has gone all to pieces and until present supplies are cleaned up there can be little change from prevailing conditions.

The Legend of Roquefort Cheese.


 Roquefort cheese, like many other unique food productions, has its legend of accidental origin. A shepherd lad. having for once more luncheon than he could eat, while tending his flock of sheep laid q large portion of his bread and cheese upon a natural shelf in one of the caverns nearby. Boyiike, he forgot all about it until several months later on returning to that cavern he found his luncheon. The cheese, in- stead of being dried up or rotten, was rich, moist and creamy and streaked with greenish blue veins of mold, the remains of the bread which had lain on or under it. He probably told his mother of his discovery and shared his piece of cheese with others. The v1l lagers were quick to recognize the im' proved texture and quality of the cheese, and henceforth all their cheeses were taken to these caves to ripen.
 The caves are owned by joint stock company. who employ about six hun dred women to tend the cheese. Oak shelves on which the cheeses are placed and so arranged that each cheese may have one side next the cold wall of the cave give over G5,000 square yards Of storing room.

The Man In the Moon.

Life, whether vegetable or animal as we know it. certainly cannot exist un- der lunar conditions. says the London Mail. The alternations of long day of considerably over 300 hours dura- tion. with night of similar length, accompanied by changes from excess sive heat to its antipodes of cold, would alone render all earthly life im- possible. but experience has taught even here the adaptability of life to most extreme conditions. and it may be believed that. after all, organic life may have found congenial home in our "lamp of night"

The Holland Primrose.

There is q plant in Holland, Known as the evening primrose, which grows to height of five or six feet and bears a profusion of large yellow flowers so brilliant that they attract immediate attention. even at a great distance, but the chief peculiarity about the plant is the fact that the flowers, which open just before sunset. burst into bloom so suddenly that they give one the impress sion of some magical agency. A. man who has seen this sudden blooming says 1t is just as if some one had touched the land with a wand and thus covered 1t all at once with gold en sheet.

CAPTAIN o. BERTOLETTO.

Captain O. BertOletto of the Italian Barque "Lincelles. in recent letter from the chief office of the Italian Barques. Lincelles, Pensacola, Fla, writes:
 "l have suffered for several years with chronic eatarrh of the Stomach. The doctors prescribed for me with out my receiving the least benefit. Through one of your pamphlets be- gan the use of Peruna, and two bot ties have entirely cured me, recom- mend Peruna to all my Friendg."
 o. Bertoietto.
 In catarrh Iof the stomach, as we'll as catarrh of any part of the body, Peruna is the. remedy. AS has been often said if Peruna will cure catarrh of one part, it will cure catarrh of any other part of the body.
 Catarrh is catarrh wherever located, and the remedy that will cure it any where will cure it everywhere.
 If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case. and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
 Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman Sanitarium. Columbus. Ohio.

Presence of Mind.

During a performance at one of the London theaters a man and his wife had to quarrel on the stage, the wom. an in rage of jealousy. the man try sng to persuade her that she was too suspicious and too passionate. Both were acting with great spirit when the wife moved herFa too near the can. dle, and her muslin dress was in flames "a an instant. Both actors kept their heads, however. The husband eXtln. Xuished the fire and, proceeding with his part, interpolated:
 "You see, my dear was right. You are ready to flare up at the least thing"

Not Left Out.

An English paper tells a story Of some children's theatricals. A party of children were giving little drama of their own, in which courtships and weddings played leading part in the plot. While the play was in progress one of the grownups went behind the scenes aud found very small girl sit. ting in the corner.
 "Why are you left out?" he asked. Aren't you playing too?"
 "Oh. Is not left out" came the reply. ITS the baby waiting to be borncd."

SITUATION CRITICAL
Opposition to Americans Exists at
 Bacalode

The Moro situation in Mindanao is considered critical, and it is believed that American troops will soon move against Bacalod, where the recent murder of two men of the Twenty seventh infantry was plotted. A small party of Moros surprised an outpost of the Twenty seventh at Camp Vickars, Mindanao, August P, killing two and wounding one American. They were from Bacalod, which has a strong iort and other 6efenses. Bitter opposition to the Americans exists at Bacalod,

 ' General Chaffee. who left Manila on the 12th on aSfnal tour of the southern islands, reached Zamboangi. island of Mindanao last Friday. In confer ence with the local commander, Gen. eral Chaffee argued that unless the American forces moved decisively against the hostiles they would lose the support of the friendly Moros.

His "Hiuner End."

An English clergyman and lowland Scotsman entered one of the best schools in Aberdeen. The master re ceived them kindly and inquired:
 "Would you prefer that l should speer (questiom these boys or that you should speer them?"
 The English clergyman desired the master to proceed. He did so with great success. and the boys answered satisfactorily numerous interrogations as to the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. The clergyman then said he woSlld be glad to "spcer the boys" and at once begar. "uow did Pharaoh die"
 There was dead silence.
 In his dilemma the lowland gentle. man interposed:
 "I think, sir, the boys are not accus. toned to your English accent. Let me try what I can make of them" And he inquired in broad Scottish:
 "Hoo did Pbawraoh dee?"
 Again there was dead silence, upon which the master said:
 "Noo. boys. fat cam to Phawraoh at his hinner end:"
 'Thc boys with orc voice answered:
 "He was drooneG."
 And a smart little fellow added:
 "Ony lassie could hae telpt ye that London Tit-Bits.
