BIG PROFIT IN IRRIGATION.
Results Achieved in Texas in the Gull
tivation Of Fruit and Veg
: etables.

Archer Richardson, q pioneer irri-
gator of Dimmit county, Tex, tells
some wonderful stories. He says that
ho has two artesian wells, 215 yards
apart and ESQ feet deep, which water
1000 acres and grow the finest crops
to be seen anywhere of onions, cot
ton. cabbage, corn Irish potatoes,
peaches, Strawberries, %dewberries and
blackberries.
He says he is now getting the Sec
ond crop of Strawberries. The cotton
makes two bales to the acre, but Is
planted only the first year to get the
land ready for truck and fruit. lie
says the return from the latter is $500
to $4OO an acre and that tabasco pep
per can be grown there to yield 81, 800
to the acre.
Figuring on onions, he says $4,000
pounds to the acre are easily grown.
which, at two cents a pound, bring net
over cost Of cultivation about $500. or
$384,OOO for one section OF GAO acres.
Richardson states that cbout 4,OOO.-
600 acres were irrigated in Dimmit
county last year, though it is 40
miles from a railroad, and that gangs
OF Mexicans are now going over new
land for next year, receiving $6.25 en-
acre for the work.
He declares that irrigated peaches
are large and finer favored than those
Of Maryland and Georgia, and other
products are tie same.

FancHuI Names Given
War Vessels of Japan
of the Morning"--for Instance,
lsOne of Those Deadly Torpedo Boats
in Port Arthur Fight

Poetry is concealed in the names OF the
japanese ships which have opened hos
Titles with Russia in such a formidable
manner. MeIodious as the names Of the
vessels are in the language of Japan.
they do not belle their sound, for they
are full OF poetic meaning and wonder

ful metaphor.
What. for example. could be more
idyllic than these: Asigiri. Mist. of the
Morning." Harusame. Spring RAIN %
Shirakumo. white Cloud" Sazanami,
Little Wave7" Yet these are the
names OF some of the most terrible war
vessels of the japanese navy, those
swift, relentless weapons OF attack
which caused such havoc to the Rusaian
fleet at Port Arthur-the torpedo coat
destroyers Oddly enough, nearly all OF
this class of boats have been given the
mildest and most idyllic form of title
by the japanese.

Occasionally there is one Of more

means a flash Of lightning" and Nj
TAXA which means "eagle:" but as rule
all the torpedo destroyers and torpedo
boats denote some gentle phenomenon
Of nature. A few more that may be
mentioned are Akatsuki. the dawn;
Arashio morning tide; and Shinonome,
dawning. From the grouping Of the
above will be seen the remarkable fond
ness which Oriental peoples have for the
phenomenon Of the rising OF the sun
and the many different terms In which
they express IT.
The theme is one which runs through
many of their greatest poetic produc-
tions and is constantly met with in their
literature and speech. The greatest dee

known as the Order OF the Rising Sun.
To the japanese mind. no more ex-
quisite simile can be expressed than
that which is denoted in the word
Asigiri, mist of the morning" Only
one who has been in Japan can realize
the f'ill beauty Of the scene which II Is
supposed to depict-a wonderful, pearly
gray mist that clothes the green land In
a shimmering veil, the like of which Is
seen nowhere else in the world
Naming of Battleships.
There Is more robustness Of sound and
more solidity of meaning IN the words
which have been bestowed on their bat
tleships by the japanese. but they have
poetic foundation. nevertheless. and
the mountains and places after which
they are named are rich In legendary
lore. One of the largest Of the battle
ships just completed. for example. is the
Arkasa. This Is one OF the sacred noun
tains of Japan. and has been extolled
by poets and philosophers for centuries.
Full Is another stalwart landmark after
which a battleship is named Hatsuse
is the name Of historic place. Once
more we have the rising sun" in
"Asahi." a towering ship, and the 9TH
ers are named after islands-ShilSishun
Yashuna. etc.-the termination "shuna''
always meaning an island.
An unusual word which crops out in
the list of battleships however. is that
Of Chin Yen. This is distinctly Chinese
It Is, in fact. one Of the Chinese ships
which the japanese captured in the Ia st
war. The nomenclature Of the armOred
and protected cruisers is on very much
the same lines as the battleships.
Nabumo and Adsuma being the names
OF historical places Itsukushima, one II
the protected cruisers. is the name of a
sacred japanese shrine; Hasidate is the
name Of a promOntory, and Matsushima
is the name Of an island. The two crlIls-
ers newly bought by Japan from the

rived on the scene of hostilities. are
