Many quarter sections will not make mo: c than~forty or fifty tons of hay end at the present cost of labor and expense for water. will. leave the farmers little or no profit. The present high prizes for both hay and grain help them ou, to a great extent. as hay is selling at SIP per ton and barley at about one cent per pound. Wheat do7s not fill well here for some reason, and though many fine locking fields that would appear to be perfect. will yield cnly from seven to ten sacks per acre and that of an inferior quality. Fer some reason the grains shrivel up end ire stead of weighing from 140 to 150 pounds per sack, much of it runs from no to 120 pounds per sack Of two and one-half bushels.
 Alfalfa does well here where it ge. S started. but only a small acreage IS a. yet planted.
 The main cause of the shortage of water was the incapacity of the canals to carry sufficient, and while most peo- p,e have an idea that the summer sea son is the time in which water is tte most needed here. it is not the ca:e for the reason that in order to get d crop of either barley or wheat these -crcps must be put in during November or December, while the water is at it's lowest in the Colorado river.
 There is a great variety of soil here, some of which will hold water like jug, and the next forty acres "bog a duck" as the saying is. The scft land is of course, the best for all orcBs. The heat Is no greater than it is either in Phoenix or Yuma, but on account of so little shade, enc gets the flu b = fit Of the sun. All this will no doubt be changed in time, especially If the government takes the system in hand and regulates the acreage to ccrre- spond With the capacity of the canals
 There arc at present fifteen or twenty combined harvesters at work in the valley, each with a capacity of thirty acres per day. They will run for fifty to sixty days. They use thirty two horses and five men with each machine. They charge g Ter ac-e, cutting, thTeshing, Cla2ning and sack ing as they go. They are doing fine work, too. as scarcely head is left or a grain lost. It Is estimated that there will be 14O0O or 15,OOO tens of grain hay cut, which will be mo tly shipped out
 Too much credit cannot be given to the California Development company, most of the individuals of which were men of very moderate means who staked their last 'dcllar and all trey could borrow to bring about the devel- opment of this country, and while there are men here who have made more money out of what this company made possible. than any member of the company has made, there are O h- CTS who never let an opportunity pass to curse them.

 MT. Brooks denied the statement and when MT. Dobson was asked which way
 the small ditch runs from the canal, he replied that it runs due north. It was later proved that the ditch runs due south and thereafter the jury seemingly discounted the testimony of MT. Dobsor materially. After the trial some members of the jury said they could find pothing convicting in Dob- sons testimony, and suggested that next time he have the complaint drawn for chicken stealing.
 During the trial it had been insinuat- cd that MT. Brooks was not an anna teur water thief, hut that he had had Considerable experience in that l.na of industry.

In England, under an old law still IN
force, the swan is. royal fowl, as
whales and surgeons are royal fish.
All swans the property whereof is not
otherwise definable, when within the
British dominions, belong to the king
by virtue of this prerogative. When
swans are lawfully taken into the pos
session of a private person such per-.
son may be said to have a property in
them; but if they be at liberty they
belong to the crown: Formerly it was
necessary for persons who wished to
keep these royal fowls to obtain q
swan mark, which was granted by the
crown, and which could not be legally
impressed without grant or prescrip-
ton. The marked swan law still holds

Assistant Secretary Brigham, of the

cured the use of sunny slope Of
ground of about ten acres near the
government building at the st. Louis
exposition, and this will be laid off
as miniature reproduction of the
United States, says Bradstreet's. The
several states and territories will be
clearly defined, the boundary lines of
each being made up of pathways, so
that visitors can walk around each
separate commonwealth. The prod
ucts of each section will be repre-
sented in the various states, and, if
the skill of the departments experts
can accomplish the desired results,
will be growing in the state to which
they are native when the exposition
is formally opened on May 1. 1904.

TO FIGHT THE GOBLIN MOTH.

Experim emit with Birds IN

Now it is the birds that are to help
in the destruction of the Goblin moth
that little insect that is doing so
much harm to the apple orchards Of
California. Down at Watsonville,
where the big orchards are, the orr
astrological department of the Units
ed States department of agriculture,
under the supervision of DR.. p. T..
Beele, is working in conjunction with
Prof. C. W. Woodwork and Warren

to exterminate, the moth, and Justine
they are installing lot of bird cages
as part of the work, says Berkeley
report,
These cages, of which there are to
be IL, will be large enough to envelop
fruit tree. Into them it is purposed
to put 80 varieties of California birds,
including canaries, bluejays and lin
nets, and then to watch them closely to
discover upon what they feastmost.
At certain times the birds will be
killed and their stomachs exhaustively
scrutinized by the ornithologists. In
this way it can be determined ac-
curately what the proportion Of fruit
the birds eat is to the insects they con-
sumo. And then from this it will be
determined what birds are most de-
structive to the Goblin moth and the
other destroyers of plant life.
If the experimenters are lucky
enough to find bird that makes the
Goblin moth its prey, that species will
be propagated in large numbers and
distributed over the state. It is
thought they can be kept in the or
chards by attractive bats. &
