IRRIGATION IS TO AC-
C0RPL|SH WONDERS
1t is Believed That II Will Multi
ply the Present Population
of the State of Nevada by
Ten Within a Few Years.

The first government irrigation work
undertaken, now in progress in Nevada,
promises an unprecedented develop
ment for that state, in area three times
the size Of Indiana, but present
population scarcely ufficient for a
single county. In speaking of the
government irrigation program before
the National geographic society the
other evening, Frederick H. Newell,
the national photographer, said:
If the works are well administered
and the irrigation fund carefully pre-
served, it will be possible to bring
about great development Of the west
and to make homes for thousands of
families. For example, if instead of
$4,000 people in Nevada, 100000 can
find prosperous homes, the conditions
Of internal trade and commerce may
be vitality altered.
As a matter of fact, the federal ir-
rigation law means more to Nevada
than to any other state in the Union,
and her history is one which can be
studied with profit by those who are
searching for light on the question of
proper administration of the public
domain. Nevada, since her admission,
has never proceeded upon the theory
that her lands should be preserved for
home-builders, and the result Is that
the population Of the whole state,
while hardly that of decent sized
city, Is yet al standstill and will
continue to remain 50 until farm lands
are thrown open to settlement in small
tracts through government irrigation.
When Nevada was admitted to the
Union, in place Of receiving the usnsl
donation of alternate sections is and So
in every township, to be used or sold
for educational purposes, she secured
fiat grant from the government of 2 900
600 acres of public land to be located
anywhere lawmakers saw fit. A
quick acting legislature passed the
bulk Of this great and valuable domain
into the private ownership of stockmen
without any material benefit to the
state, to which its citizens can now
point. These lands are located up and
down the sides of every river and
stream and surrounding every spring
and water hole in the state. So that
while Nevada today has some go, 100000
acres Of public land, there is not
quarter section Of it upon which a
homesteader could make a living.
The land granted to the state for school
purposes-disposed of by the state for
mess of pottage, controls the balance
OF the state.
The government plans, when worked
out in their entirety in Nevada will
reclaim something like 100000 acres,
which will provide new lifeblood of
settlement and citizenship for this re-
gion of naturally great agricultural
possibilities.

LUXURY AND GOOD HEALTH.
One May Enjoy Both in These Days
of Sanitary Foods and
Drinks.

There never was time, perhaps, in
the history of the world when there
was such a determined effort to find
and keep good health as at present.
Young and old are beginning to real
ize, apparently, that something must
be done to preserve bodily vigor.
Foods almost by the hundred are Of
fered as sure promoters of vitality
and attractive advertisements con-
tain more or less learned discussions
upon the value of strong nerves, pure
blood and clear brain, says the
Cleveland Leader.
Those who do not live upon health
foods are devoting much of their
time to physical culture and nearly
every house in which there are young
people contains it's quota of gym
nasium apparatus. Outdoor and in
door sports have more devotees than
ever before. Golf, baseball, football,
tennis, basketball, bowling and other
forms of amusement which induce
perspiration and increase the action
of the heart are depended upon to
supplement more physical culture, So
called, in building up strong bodies
and laying the foundation for good
health and long life.

PARIS BEHIND THE TINES.
First Building with American Con-

Recently Erected.

1t is only of late years that even
the more pretentious homes in Paris
would create any enthusiasm in the
minds of Americans, accustomed as
they are to many conveniences which
are considered great luxuries in
France, says the Architectural Rec
ord.
1t is no unusual thing to see cart
with yellow-painted bathtub and
tank of hot water stop before houses
in fashionable quarters.
Elevators have just come into gen
eral use, and, with the exception OF
those of American manufacture, are
usually slow, uncertain and compH-
Gated in mechanism. Wax candles are
to be seen in the chandeliers as often
as electric lights.
Things are, however, changing, and
last year in the avenue du Bo:s de
Boulogne model building was erect
ed, which combines French elegance
with all the American comforts. IL
is of white sandstone, in late Louis
XIV. style, with the entrance at the
side through heavy iron and glass
gates.
The building consists of two "ho-
tels'' or private residences, and one
apartment The first "hoter' occu-
pies the first two floors, the apart
ment the third, and the second
s'hotel' the fourth and fifth. The
rooms for the servants are on the

AN EFFECTIVE ALARM CLOCK.
Not Only Ayvakes the Sleeper, But

the Same Time.

''Ring-a-ding-a-ding a ding! Get
up, you lazy loafer! It's seven
o'clock" Those strenuous words,
preceded by the tinkle of brisk lit
tie bell, caused a visitor in a West
Philadelphia house to hop out of bed
the other morning with immense sud-
denness, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord.
The words were SO authoritative
that he had the same feeling of sub
mission he had when a schoolboy and
his father called him. So he jumped
up now without question.
What had awakened him was a
photographic. clock, an ingenious ar
rangement devised by his host, which
was so set that the same spring
which started the alarm started, a
moment later, a photographic at
tachment. The maker of the phono-
graphic clock said he thought of
patenting it.
''You see,'' he said, "the phono-
graph, speaking to you after the
alarm wakes you, can be made to
say different things-can be made,
