The ianitor, he hollered "Fire!"
And things we're doing-on my soul |!
The cops en- masse tore up the street;
The hurry wagons speeded thence;
The tiremen and the "Rescue Hose"
They quickly came from manywhence.

Drank in with fright the awful roar.

BLESSINGS OF IRRIGATION
n.k.s for Hish..s ssei.I ana Iadus-

Mskes for Ai3 3hsst BSeiaI and lad Ne.
trial statns-No Land Monopoly.
Hon. william Z. Smyth, author OF
ARID America" has truly said that no
consideration OF the subject can be sp-
preciated when IL starts with the narrow
view that irrigation il merely an sd-
juncs TO agriculture. 1t 10 a social and
Industrial factor in n much broader sense.
II not only makes II possible for a civil
ization 60 rise and flourish in the midst OF
desoiate wastes: IL shapes and coiors that
civilization after its own peculiar design.
IL is not merely the life blood of the
field but the source of institutions. These
wider and more subtle influences are DIM
cult to define in abstract terms, but we
may trace them clearly to the history
OF various communities which have
grown up in conformity with these con-
ditions.
The first great law which irrigation
lays down Is this: There shall be no mo-
nopoly of land" The edict il cnforces by
the remorsele,s operation OF its own
economy. Canals must be built before
water can be conducted upon the land.
This entails expense either of money or
of labor. What is expensive cannot be
had for nauSht. Where water 10 the
foundation of prosperity it becomes q pre-
cious thing to be neither cheaply acquir-
ed nor wantonly wasted. Like q city's
provisions in siege, IL il retained to be
carefully husbanded. to bs fairly distrib-
uted according to mems needs. to he
wisely expended by those who receive 1t.
For these reasons men cannot acquire
as much irrigated land. even from the
public domain. "a they could acquire
where irrigation Is unnecessary. 1t Is
not only more difficult to acquire in large
bodies but yet more diHicuit to retain.
A large farm under irrigation IN Q mis-
| fortune; a great farm. a calamity. Only
the small farm pays. but this small farm
blesses its proprietor vita industrial in
dependence and crowns him with social
equality. Industrial Independence IL, in
its simplest term, the guarantee of sub
| sistence from ones own labors. II II the
ability TO earn a living under conditions
which admit Of the smallest possible ele-

pendence upon others Irrigation fully

the climate does not well do the dry

to be resorted to. So prepared,
there is peat enough distributed

an indefinite succession of centuries.
Alaska has plenty of it, and so has
Siberia, with ample deposits in 9TH

already uses 100000 tons of the
briquettes yearly, and within fifty
miles of Chicago are deposits of the
material sufficient to supply the city

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Cleanliness In tie Kitchen as lmpor-
tant as IN the Sickroom.

Back of the pantry door hang a
long, white apron, white oversleeves
and white cap; not the pretty
coquettish cap worn at cooking
school, but cap of large proper
tons, fitted with an elastic tape.
which holds it close round the face,
says the Housekeeper. Under this
cap not a hair can escape, which
precludes any possibility Of hairs IN
the food when one is cooking. The
apron and sleeves cover the gown
perfectly, SO that it is unnecessary
to change ones dress when it Is
time to prepare dinner. If one is
careful, it is possible to cook with.
out allowing drop to fall and, hav-
ing on good gown, teaches one to
be careful. The apron and sleeves.
as well as the cap, are of white lin
en-, cheap quality of table linen.
They wear for years and are easily
washed, besides looking clean at all
times. At least when they are soiled
one can see it at glance, and this
does away with any chance of cook
ing with soiled apron. We insist
on our trained nurses wearing white
aprons in order to have everything
clean about the sickroom. There
will come a time when we will re-
alize that it is as important to be
surgically clean in the kitchen when
people are well in order to keep
them so as it is to be thus clean IL
the sickroom in order to cure them
when they are i'll.
