is written by Walter T. Swingle, physi- ologist in charge of the laboratory of plant life history, and includes all eX- periments in date culture by the gov ernment. The bulletin is one that ought to be read with interest in the arid west, and no doubt with great profit to those properly situated to act in accordance with the advice given re- specting date culture. The preface to the bulletin is written by Albert r. Woods. pathologist and physiologist of the bu- reau. and from it the following extract is taken:
 It is shown that no heat is too great and no air too dry for this remarkable plant, which is actually favored by a rainless climate and by hot desert winds. It is also shown that the date palm can withstand great quantities of alkali in the soil more than any other useful plant. This demonstration is Of special interest. now that water has been brought into the Salton basin. Or Colorado desert, in southeastern Cali fornia, rendering it possible to irrigate some hundreds of square miles of very rich land where the climate is probably even more favorable for the culture of the choicest sorts of dates than in the Sahara. Recent researches of the bu- reau of soils have shown that a large proportion-over half--of the soils in the irrigable part of the Saltof basin, is too alkaline to support any ordinary crop. It is shown in this bulletin that the date palm can be grown without difficulty on four-fifths of the irrigable lands of this basin, and that on fully one-quarter of this area it is probably the only profitable plant crop that can succeed permanently. Il will take con- siderable time, however, to bring the industry to a paying basis. The date palm will be of prime importance in many other irrigated desert areas of the southwest, where the alkalinity of the soil is too great to permit the, cul- ture of other crop plants. It is, more

over, confidently believed that date culture, far from being last resort for lands unfit for anything else, is one Of the most profitable fruit industries. and that it will pay to plant date palms on the best of lands and give them the most careful attention.
 There is a complete description of the experiments in date culture in this val ley and the following is extracted from the reference made to the Tempe date orchard:
 "The collection of varieties from the cooperative date garden at Tempe is by far the most complete in the world, since it comprises the bes1 known varieties from the Algerian Sa- hara, from Egypt, and from the regions about Bassorah and Maskat, whei e most of the dates imported into Ameri- ca are produced. IS well as a large col lection of varieties from the Pangh Ghur region in Baluchistan. Fog ther with the seedlings that have originated in the valley and the sorts growing at the experiment station farm at Phoe- nix, there are something over ninety named varieties now on trial in the Salt River valley. It is very pIoba ole that some of these will prove to be adapted for profitable culture in this valley, even if the Deglet Moor cannot nature There are several seeding dates that have originated in the Sal- River valley in Arizona, which promise to be valuable. One of the best of these is the Lount No. G. It is small, being rather smaller than the Wolfskill date, but of very good texture, of clear am Der color when dried, and of fairly good flavor The kales date and the Bonnet date (pictures of which are shown in the bulletin) are seedlings of consider able merit. also growing near Phoe- nix. In addition there are several Oth- CT seeding varieties of considerable value, which have already fruited in | Central Arizona, some of which may prove adapted to culture en a large scale"

THE DATE PALM
Bulletin Issued by Agricultural Dept.
 Interesting to ArizOni0ns.

Professor AIcClatchie, of the experi- ment farm. yesterday received a copy of the latest bulletin issued by the bu- reau of plant industry of the depart ment of agriculture. It is a volume of 15j pages of text matter and twenty pages of illustrations, and is devoted entirely to the date palm. The volume seems to contain about all the avail able information of practical nature respecting the culture of this fruit both in its native land and in America. It
