Following is the excellent paper of W. F.. Wilsie referred to last week in the Farmers Institute report
 Solomon said, There is no new thing under tlc sun In general s.iIsc this is true. but speaking of community it IS not true, for new things come to communities; nor is It true of the individual, for rev ideas are con tinually coming to him and ideas car rled out put into motion create new things for the individual and finally new things for the community.
 Since the Colorado desert has been known, ideas have come to the minds of men, new to the individual in regard to 1t. Schemes wer. projected and failed. until one day an idea, new to him, struck MT. Rockwood. He con ccived the idea that the time WAS ripe for an enterpris. to bc launched that would successfully irrigate and reclaim the Colorado desert and make 1t useful to man. Action followed the thought; {; forces were put to work, with th. re- suit that one of tn. greatest irrigation enterprises the world has ever Known was launched and within thre. years degree of success had been attained that astonished the world, and 1t would have reached ultimate success had not Q new idea come to some other fellow the idea of public ownership of water.
 Six months ago this idea was scarcely to be heard above whisper when We heard it. We believed tn 1t, but passed 1t over ss an idle dream to be thought of in the distant future. How little We
 .,,,..~ed what could be accomplished iii so short a time hy keeping gad idea constantly before the people. To- day nobody thinks for minute hut that public ownership of the irrigating system and the waters of the Colorado river is almost an accomplished fact. So much for "a new idea
 The theme of this institute has been how to produce better crops, the whole idea is how to get more from our land. How to get more eggs from our hens. more butter from our dairy and how to do this at less expense-apparently satisfied to produce with little thought of what we are to do with the products. We all know that with the soil the WA ter and the sunshine we have here We can produce crops galore. but it will not bring the cash for the product.
 According to modern methods, the produce must find n market. Our great Valley will soon be traversed by a transcontincntal railroad line. one of the best in the world, line complete with all of the mudern facilities for handling freight aud passenger traffic, and whose interests are identical @ with the interests of the people. So far as we know they will endeavor to put our goods into the markets of the world-but what about the cost2
 Is it possible that We who have laid so much stress on the point oi produc- tion are going to be satisfied to let the little profit we might otherwise have slip away from us as an item of freight. in marketing the same, and that, with out the least investigation as to whether it k the best we can do nr not. have only to call the attention of you farmers to one item of freight which cincerns

uB very materially at the present time, and that is the freight rate on hay. We pay the bill from the little margin of hard earned profit of the farm. We blame the railroad company for exact ing all the traffic will bear, but continue to pay the price, wishing 1t were not so, but seemingly deciding that it is one of the misfortunes of the desert farmer and that 1t is the best that we can do.
 thought has struck some fellow By his minds eye he sees how far We are from market and from tide water by the existing line. He sees V that goes in and what goes out over the line, and what, in the near future, the freight and passenger traffic will amount to. Before him lies our great Valley of from six hundred thousand to one mil lion acres, destined to become the greatest producer the world has ever known-one hundred thousand acres already put in cultivation in two years settling faster than water can be furnished to the land, and the produc- tion from which will increase rapidly from wear to year.
 He sees this railroad system tugging at the long line of CATS with its great modern mogul engine overtaxed in its honest effort to move the freight. serve the people, and, incidentally, to pocket the revenue.
 He sees the larbor of San Diego less than one-half the distance away, one of the best m the world, with depth of thirty feet Of water over the bar at the entrance at low tide, and n total area of tw.nty-two square miles, the short line of which offers available space for the construction of piers reaching into deep water and covering di:tancc along the shore line of over twcnty-one miles, and the plans of whose harbor commis- sioners provide for l25 linear miles of "harves at thirty-thrre feet minimum depth, sufficient in both depth and space to meet the needs oi the greatest ports ofthe world.
 lie sees the iuteTmountain country aboundIng m mineral and agricultural resources.
 He sees the work of the San Diego railroad committee in it's effort to build the San Diego and Eastern and to con- meet it with a transcontinental line.
 He sees all this but he scrp no hope. He ponders, and as he ponders a new idea comes to him. His thoughts go back t0 the folks of the desert, and he says to himselt Surely-n-cessIty is the mother of invention-these people must find some way to build railroad for themselves
 And say to you-you of undaunted courage-by the use ot whose means and by the sweat of whose brow it be- came possible for the desert to bloom, and for a railroad to exist you who had the bravery to fight for public owner ship of water in the face oi private mo- mololy. you who dared to stand for your rights, will you allow this excess to go out from your profits when by applying the same sagacity to this end of the business that you have to the other. enough could he saved in a few years to build the entire railrnadP You would not consent to have your profits lessen ed by shortage oi water, will you con

! cent Oi falIure would hardly be worth counting. While older bulls are a nuisance from having learned bad habits, yet prefer them, for they are tested as to the quality of their calves. If the expense Is not too great in trans porting them, or they could be had near at home. would prefer to buy them to younger animals. We do not consider that the length of an animals life is of importance, yet it is better that a COW should live and be productive for IS years than that she should fail at 10 years old. But to return to the sire. prefer the older bull, for 1t can be seen by his calves the type of COW he hicks kindly with, and the type he fails to produce well with, 80 the loss is reduced te miniu um of producing undesirable COWS
 The improvement of cattle comes from environment also. By environ ment IS meant care, food and climatic conditions. Under care comes correct milking. while We gain heredity in the grade herd through the sire like to keep the best of the sires to breed back to again. His heifers are bred to an other sire, one-eighth of the same blood aud their daughters to another sire one-eght, ii possible, of another desirable strain of the old sire's blood. The ext generation Is bred back to the original sire, and next tO the second sire and the next to the third sire. By writing out the pedigree and never com ing in more than the third generation, using for the purchased sires those not nearer than third cousins, the cows can be brought to type of cattle that are desirable. With a hundred head this only requires three bulls. With a close observation of the individual animals health, it Is safe to breed in closer. Nature will quickly show you if you are coming in too close by giving you weak calves The Jersey breeders on the island have shown great skill in this, for after two hundred years of breeding together in a limited number of animals on the island they still have health and thrift.
 The best COW in our old herd was Lady Kathleen, and we have retained her blood as possible in the breeding of the younger animals. She gave A milk by the year, making 629 pounds of butter in the years. She came of the Aaggie strains. We hunted the herd books for blood strains and found them iully represented m bull Romeo Aaggle.
 After some bargaining we bought forty-two heifers. most of them his daughters, shipped them to California and bred them to Lady Kathleen $ sons. Some of these heifers had been bred to Johanna's 5th Paul Dekol when pur- chased. Again We had the Aaggie blood with the higher testing strains of the Johanna's, very excellent cross. One of these Montana heiiers bred to Lady kathleen's son gave us the COW now in our herd that tested last month over three pounds of butter fat in a day, while her daughter bred to one of tho young sons of Jnhanna's 5th Dekol has n world record as d heifer. of the stock raised from this cross there are thirty nine in the Advanced Registry.

Advice to the Damen of the Imperial Valley by One Who H.
 Won Fame and Fortune the Fam.

The magnificent talks of Mrs. Minnie F.. Sherman, of Fresno, at the Farmers Institute here last week were the admi- ration of all, and as Imperial Is pecu- liarly dairy country her advice on the subject will be especially apprc- ciated. It is published, now by her kind permission, for the first time:
 The average man in the dairy busi- ness has not been trained he starts with a few COWS, and finding the ready money desirable continues to increase the mum Der of his herd. He soon dis covers that he needs COWS that are con tinuous nilkers. Then the creamery man takes up his education in the diff ference in the amount of fat in the milk. Later, when the dairyman be- gins to proportion out the money re- ceived for COW feed and for milkers wages, and falls short in his accounts, he finds that slip-shod ways will not do in the dairy, and he either does better in management or sells out discouraged.
 Yet there is no surer road to q pros porous community than by dairing, as We see land selling for 500 to $500 an acre in Humbolt county, the value of the dairy making people willing 10 live in so inconvenieut place. Today, in Fresno county, 1t Is not the humble dairynan that is in the dumps, but the. aristocratic Iaisin growers.
 In the way of improvement the dairy IS not expensive, for strange as IL may seem, sirvs are cheaper than COWS. The s,.n of fine registered COW rarely sells for nearly as much as his dams or his sisters, yet there Is a larger chance of his transmitting the acquired qualities to his offspring than of the sisters prov ing the equal of the dam. Milk making has long puzzled the student, until at last il has come to be considered as mental, and. just as We find in the human family, the sons acquiring the mental or brain powers from the mother. Men of brilliant minds rarely have sons of like ability, but have grandsons, sons of their daughters as great. So We find the male, by his hardiness, gathering up the acquired characteristics. and by the force of he reality transmitted to the female, the female of the race becoming the type or standard bearer of excellence. So in the bovine family the acquired milk and butter making of an extraordinary COW ,,lsses to her son and by him Is fixed in the line of blood. while in the daughter of the great COW We have her individual type to overcome before the excellence inherited from the mother can be de- veloped. II you study the matter out, you will find that every great sire has great dam behind him, while the butter and milk quality in the cows are not so traceAble. Now the best of the sons of the impoI ted COWS are often sold for less than half the price of the heiiers. Now if were starting herd, l would buy old registered COWS that had breeding. but lad not distinguished themselves. and start with sire of the highest but ter producing family could purchase The resulting heiicrs would be pushed by feeding as soon as they came in for all they were worth. When they ma tured 1 shnnll expect to have all Ad- vanced Registry cnws-indrei the per
