To Benefit Miners.

The committee on resolutions at
the mining congress in Portland
bias faHorably reported the Richards
resolution urging Congress tocreate
g government department of mines
and mining with n cabinet officer
st it- head. The idea has been
generally approved by mining men
and. az il will probably be adopted
hy the full congress, it will unques-
tionab.y have influence with the
law makers, who long ago had this
important matter brought to their
notice.
The mining industry is so widely
scattered, and people of so many
different sections of the country are
identified with it, that it is quite as
deserving of federal encouragement
as many other forms of industrial
activity to which the government
bias given It's attention. 1t is not a
function Of the government to OPP
crate mines; neither is it the pro-
vince Of the government to 90 into
farming. But the interests of the
aguculurists have been deemed
sufficiently important to occupy Che
attention of a special department,
and why should mining not be de-
serving of equal recognition?
Il would boz uo novel idea. Gov
ernments. under whose jurisdiction
large mining operations have been
developed, have seen fit to establish
departments of mines that have
worked immense benefits to the in

The EARLY "Loco Motive"

From the diary of Thomas Creeyey,
who lived in England during the early
part of last century, the following is
quoted: Lady Wilton sent over yester-
day from Knowsley to say that the
loco motive machine was to be upon the
railway at such a place at II o'clock
for the Knowsley party to ride in if
they liked and inviting this house to
be of the party. So, of course, we were
at our post in three carriages and some
horsemen at the hour appointed. | had
the satisfaction, for | can't call it a
pleasure, of taking a trip of five miles
in it, which we did in just a quarter
of an hour-that is, twenty miles an
hour. AS accuracy upon this subject
was my great object. held my watch
in my hand at starting and all the
time. and as it had second hand l
knew | could not be deceived, and 1T
so turned out there was not the differ
ence of a second between the eoachee
or conductor and myself But observe,
during these five miles the machine
was occasionally made to put itself
out or go it, anddhen we went at the
rate of twenty-three miles an hour and
lust with the same ease as to motion
or absence of friction as the other nor
nal pace. But the quickest motion is
to me frightful. 1t Is really flying, ana
it is impossible to divest yourself OF
the notion of instant death to All upon
the least accident happening"

Irritating Wells and Reservoirs.

The wells for irrigating are built in
a peculiar manner. For the first six
teen feet they are dug like ordinary
wells. Then the subsoil, of Il quick
sand nature, is reached. From that
depth cylinder sixteen inches, or
larger, in diameter and thickly per-
forated is driven downward, and the
sand and water that enter the cylin-
der through the perforations are
pumped out and the cylinder is
forced still further downward. AS
the country is practically Hat, the
reservoirs have to be built with en-
bankments, to bring them above the
natural level, in order that fall for
the water may be secured.
The windmills cost from $l55 to
$500. There is no expense for power
to operate them. By keeping them at
work pumping into the reservoirs
when the wind is of sufficient veloc-
city to furnish the necessary power,
WAGER can be stored for use when the
wind happens to fail. The size Of the
area to be irrigated and the crops to
be grown determine the number OF
windmills and reservoirs necessary.
A windmill in an ordinary wind will
fill "A reservoir 70 by 100 feet and
feet deep i'll two days and nights.
One windmill and one reservoir will
supply sufficient water to irrigate
from ten to twenty acres.
The farmer who adopts irrigation
is forced to learn some of the rudi-
mentary principles of surveying, in
order to build his reservoir and run
his bitches so that water can be car
ried to all parts of the farm. The
water is carried from the reservoir in
main bitches leading to the different
fields. From the main ditch, smaller
ones carry the water between the
rows OF tree or vegetables, except
when fields, such rs alfalfa hay
fields, are to be watered by the food.
