OUR OLD COFFEE POT.

l want to hear the simmer
OF the old coffee pot;
want to hear it hummin'
When it's gettin' good and hot;
l want to see the vapor rise
Like incense in the room,
And float about a-fillin'
Every corner with perfume.
0, it isn't very often
That feller gets the best,
But when he does it's like Whit
A-commius from the west;
It's like rush of springtime
Across a GROWN field,
A film you with dream of what
The harvest time'll yield.
I love the smell of roses
Along about in June;
And I'd hang around and listen
To almost any tune;
But the fragrance and the music
That nothing else has got
Are the odor and simmer
or the old coffee pot.

The cost of putting water on west
ern land may range all the way from
four to fifty dollars an acre. Some OF
the simple propositions require only the
digging Of big ditch in order to secure
water for thousands Of acres; others
necessitate the building Of immense
masonry dams and the construction of
very expensive canals and headworks.
1t is probable that eventually the waters
of some Of the great rivers of the north
western states-the Columbia and the
Snake may be taken out at very large
cost per acre, yet fruit lands in the
Yakima valley Of Washington today re
bringing in an annual revenue Of as
high as 5000 an acre. OF course it
would not pay to spend $50 an acre in
reclaiming lands to be used for grazing
or feeding purposes.

COST OF IRRIGATION.


Some Of the Washington dispatches
have called attention to the expected in
crease in cost Of irrigation Of the west
ern lands which the interior department
designated the other day for the first
construction under the national irriga-
ton law, pointing out that this cost is
double certain estimates made during
the discussion Of the irrigation bill,
which we're placed at S5 an acre. FIVE
dollars would undoubtedly be a low
average to place on all the reclaimable
western lands. But whether the irriga-
ton works which the government is to
construct in the west will cost at the
rate Of IS an acre or SIS or $50 an acre
is matter which need in nowise inter-
fere with the prosecution of the irriga-
ton constructions under the national
irrigation law passed by congress last
summer. In every case the cost Of put
ting water upon the land is tobe borne by
lilo bClIiuI buC wiz Al'Co OLi
the land and will use the water. The
government will be repaid for every
dollar expended. The question then is
simply whether land with water on it
will be taken by settlers at ten dollars
or fifteen dollars an acre or any other
sum which it may cost to reclaim it.
When it is realized that irrigated farms
and orchards in the west are worth from
four to one hundred times fifteen dollars
an acre, and that the crudest irrigation
farms produce annually more than SIS
an acre, it is not believed that there will
be any dearth of applicants ready and
eager to 60 upon the land which the
government reclaims. Under the irriga-
tion act payment can be made on exceed
ingly easy terms-ten equal annual
installments.

In MemOriam.

1t is written, "Thc young may die-the old
must" When the aged workman has accom-
plished his day, and, full of hOnOrs and viz
tue, lies down to rest from his labOrs, we
feel that nature has only paid her just debt,
aud that another spirit has passed peace.
when the young man, full of strength, vigor
and promise, while the hopes Of his future
betokens q rich fulfllment OF the virtues
and usefulness Of life SO fairly begun, is
stricken with death it takes all our faith in
"Hm who dOeth all things we'll" to recon-
cile SO sudden q dispensatiOn OF his PrOyi-
dence.
Such was the faith of our lamented broth
er, +. a. Boone. In the midst of his labors
his life suddenly went out At noon.
1t is meet and proper that We, as We COM
mend his spirit to the God who gave it, to
place on record here the qualities that made
in him a true. upright and faithful man and
Mason. Therefore,
BE it resolved, That by the death of Broth
er r. NJ. Boone, Franklin Lodge No. 81 f. s
A. NJ. has lost valuable member, and this
community true and honest citizen.
Resolved, That our lodge room be draped
in mourning; that page OF our record book
be cOnSecrated to his memory. and that the
members of this Lodge wear the usual badge
OF mourning as q tOk en- CT our fratornal love
and esteem for him.
Resolved, That we tender to his widow and
orphans our deepest and sincerest sympathy
in their great loss and bereavement.
Resolved that these resolutions be pub
lished and a copy thereof be forwarded to
the family of our deceased brother.
