Why are the transcontinental railroads maintaining an extrav- agant and expensive lobby Tn Bogota, charged with defeating the Panama canal treaty? Be cause the roads are awaae that once the isthmian canal is com pIeted they will be compelled, by the competition of water freight carriers. to lower their own freight rates.

European nations go right on extendifg the canal systems with in their borders because water transportation has demonstrated that it is economical. The only reason canal construction in this country is so seriously hampered is because the railways fear the water competition.

The Painted Desert.

Hon. A. J. Doran, who left re- gently for St. Louis for the pur- pose of letting the contract for the erection of the Arizona build tug, has but lately returned from an extended trip through the northern portion of the territory, says the Prescott Herald. In speaking of his trip, Mir. Doran said that during his absence he travelled for seventy five miles over what is known as the painted desert, which he says Is d most interesting section, con taining large deposits os copper which are at present out of the market owing to their isolated location. In this region he passed through a petritied forest, some of the treas being 100 feet in length, and intact. They are not agatized as are those in the much advertised Arizona petri fled forest. Here and there are petrited splinters from the trees. Some of the wood is slightly az atized. The country gets it's name Painted Desert from the many mounds of various colOred mud scattered over it's surface. The country is covered with this mud, shale and sandstone. Be yond Coconino Point the sand stone strata seems to have been pushed back to make way for an open valley, on either side of which the sandstone formation towers to a height of thousand feet or more. In this open val ley is located the petritied forest and many of the petritied trees carry a high percentage of cop per. The altitude is 1000 feet above sea level, and immense de- posits of copper ore lie on top of the sand. The ore averages 10 per cent copper. There is vast area over which these copper de posits, about sixteen feet thick, are found. These deposits are right in the sand rock. MT. DO- ran went there in the interests of the White Mesa Copper Min ing company and the Pittsburg company. The former company has d force of men at work try ing to develop sufficient water for plant. Mr. Doran says the formation is similar to that O1 the South African diamond heldS and that recently two valuable diamonds have been found there by teamsters. Mir. DOran brought
 back with him some specimens
 of the petrifed wood and some
 pieces of jasper. One of the
 pieces of petrified wood shows plainly that the wood was half
 routed before the process o-
 turning to stone commenced Mr. Doran says the country
 must have been a garden of trop
 ical growth before the visitation of sand and mud and change O
 climate turned 1t into the fantas
 tlc wonderland which 1t is. Hc
 also brought with him abou
 twenty five pounds of the cOppe
 ore referred to, which looks al right.

Prof. Forbes Colorado River Trip

Prof. Forbes Colorado River Trip
 Professor R. H. Forbes, who recently returned from his trip of investigation of lands along the Colorado river, in company with Professor W. W. Skinner, gave some interesting facts and incidents to a representative of the Phoenix Republican. Pro- fessors Forbes and Skinner went to Fort Mohave and thence down the Colorado river to Yuma in a boat.
 The trip was made for the per pose of studying the Colorado and its adjacent lands from the standpoint of an agriculturist, that natural resources and future possibilities might be noted and the department be better in- formed as to what may be ac- complished in that section by properly directed work. He de- sired particularly to learn what the natives are accomplishing in an agricultural way by the use of overflow water from the Colo rado and Mhat the white settlers are doing with steam pumps and other mechanical appliances di- rected to the raising of crops. Frequent stops were made and features of interest inquired into.
 They found that the Cheme- huevis Indians. in their valley midway between Needles and Yuma, are now the most pros perons farmers. They raise beans, squashes, corn and mel ons with the overflow water when it is high enough to irri
 gate their lands. Frequently, however. the water is not higl enough to reach their lands anC then there is a very short crop
 The Colorado deals with the In
 dians very much as the Nile doe.

 Contrary to a popular belle
 the Colorado has but gradua fall, averaging about one foot tt i the mile, while the grade of th'
 lands along the banks average:
 about eighteen inches to thu
 mile. It can readily te seer
 how difficult it is to get the nee
 essary grade for irrigation ditch

 when the muddy nature of th
 Colorado water is considered

and not only is it a great econ
orny to make ones own, but Ii is also a
very simple and interesting task. and
the advantage of having them to the
correct fitting makes it thoroughly worth
while.
Anyone with prominent figure should
wear plain, tight-ftting covers. while
she who is slight requires fullness across

To make the right fitting ones requires
a good pattern. A very easy and salts
factory way of procuring this is to use
an old foundation bodice from dress

old pattern should be cut off by the
waist line, the neck cut down as re-
quired, and about half-inch Cor the origi

Fold the pattern down middle of the

sary turnings to the front edges for the
fastenings, which should be by small
buttons.
The best way to do this correctly is
to cut off Of there are any the edges
of the old pattern, outside the actual
middle of the front, when fastened; then
allow half inch On the buttonhole edge
and an inch and quarter on the button

the old edges. Make them neat by ad-
