MISSOURI MEN LOST.
Were No Match for Washburn on
Baseball Field.

While the Topeka Valley league
team was struggling all last week to
defeat Washburn college in Il and Il
inning games, the news came from
Sedalia. Mo-, that the league team of
that town had wiped up the earth
with the Missouri State Normal team
OF Warrensburg by a score of p to D.
Warrensburg used to play tie games
with Washburn, and the league root
ers worried over what Sedalia would
do to Topeka But their fears are at
rest now. They had their funeral last
Saturday afternoon on Washburn
field The Warrensburgites were here
in their frayed-out, poverty-stricken
clothes and met Washburn. When
the dust had cleared away over the
ninth inning. the Missourians looked
like a ten-cent piece which was made
before the civil war and had been in
constant use ever since The score
was Il to 4. But that doesn't tell the
story.
1t was a shame to take the money
from the 400 people who sat in the
grandstand and on the bleachers to
watch the funeral procession go by.
The audience was so tired that 1t went
to sleep. The visitors put up ar

canal will leave the river at quite an

canal will cover more land twice over

connection a power proposition, The

the cheapest to build, and in dropping

San Juan County Alone Should Have
Population as Great as New
Mexico.

Santa Fe New Mexican
United States Deputy Surveyor Jay
Turley returned this week over the
Denver & Rio Grande from an extend
ed trip along the San Juan river
where he has been making an expert
investigation Of the irrigation posi-
bilities in the San Juan valley. He ex-
poets to leave within a few days for
the Sacramento mountains in Otero
county to attend to matters in the in
terest of the public land surveys in
that section.
When seen by representative of
the New Mexican, Mr.. Turley said:
The possibilities of development here
in New Mexico, for the homeseeker or
the investor, are very little known and
appreciated even by those OF us who
live here, much less by those living in
the states. What surprises me most
is the fact that the virgin-natural re-
sources have been suffered to remain
practically untouched 50 long. San
Juan county alone should have today a
greater population than the entire Ter.
ritory Of New Mexico. There flows to
waste every year in the San Juan riv-
er sufficient water to reclaim 10000
acres of the finest land to be found in
the southwest, or anywhere else for
that matter, and certainly in the en-
ployment of modern methods OF irri-
CATION this acreage could be easily
doubled The San Juan country has
an excellent climate, fine land. great
quantities of water, and in fact, every

population. and one can but predict a
most prosperous future for this vast
garden spot. The mining industry in
Southern Colorado, in the mountains
in which the San Juan, the Animas,
and the La Plata rivers have their
sources, furnishes a permanent mar
ket for the productions along these
rivers. Lower down, in northwestern
New Mexico. | find line for a canal
that is certainly practicable and feas-
ible and what surprises me is that it
has remained so long unnoticed, or at
least without some attempt being
made to construct canal there
Over half of the cost of constructing
the canal will be in three miles. The
headgate would be Just below the
mouth of the Rio de los Pinos, and is
an ideal location with respect to the
flow of the river as lands could be
watered from the canal within 1900
feet from the headgate. and over 200
acres can be reclaimed within two
and a half miles from the headgate:
