To Discontinue Land Office

Since his return to Washington
from the west W. A. Richards com
missioner of the general Office has set
in motion policy that may in time
result in abolishing ten of the twelve
land offices in Colorado leaving only
two. the one in Denver and the other
lin Pueblo
Mr.. Richards now has the matter
under consideration and information
comes from Washington that among
the first to go will be those at Akron,
Sterling, Lamar, Del Norte and HUI
go Two of these are booked to be
discontinued at once, the others to
follow in a short time, and still 9TH
ers will be abolished later.
This move if carried out will event
ually throw ont ten receivers, as ma
ny registers and about thirty clerks
These will be let out gradually as
their offices are discontinued. The
reason for this action is that the bust =
ness now existing does not justify the
further conduct of these offices 1t is
the purpose of the general land office
to eventually consolidate the minor
offices with Pueblo and Denver.

Experiments in Soil incubation

Prof l.. II. Bailey delivers this
ulation discussion in The Country
Calendar for May, the first issue of
the new outdoor magazine published
by the Review of Reviews Book COM
pany:
THE most recent development is
the recrudescence of the idea of inocu-
latipg directly by means of pure cul-
lures of the germs. This is the re
suit of the work of DR.. George r.
Moore, of our national Department of
Agriculture. He has incorporated his
cultivated germs, in desiccated
state, with absorbent cotton, so that
they can be sent by mail and then be
used for the incubation either of the
sol or of the seed The cotton is
thrown into water (which is prepared
by treatment with certain chemicals)
and when the germs have multiplied

simple and is inexpensive. A large
number of packages of the inoculating
material were sent out by the Depart
ment of Agriculture last year; and
the gratifying results of the work are
reported in Bulletin II of the Bureau
of Plant Industry, issued January 23,
1905 The subject, therefore, is only
this year before the general public
for information and discussion
1t is yet too early to give an
opinion as to the value of this new
method of inoculation. The published
results are most encouraging. On
the other hand other experiments

results. nothing like those secured
from inoculation by means of soil

Money in Small Farms

Can man make a living from one
acre of land This question has arisen
as a result of the determination express
ed by Anthony p. Canny of Pottsville,
Pennsylvania, who announces his in
tentions of purchasing one acre of land
at Vineland for the purpose of testing
his belief that this small tract will
support him and his wife and young
boy. Mr.. Canny recently came to
Colorado for his health. He is man
of small means and had but little
money to invest in land His physi
clans in the East warned him against
attempting to do manual labor and
advised him to purchase just as little
land as he could possibly produce a
living from, in order to minimize his
work until the outdoor life and invigor-
ating climate gave him strength to
work a bigger farm.
Mr.. Canny is resourceful man
and he determined that what had been
done in California can be done in
Colorado.
True his farm will not produce
everything raised on the California
model farm but he argues that he will
be able to raise products that would be
impossible in California.
In his eastern home Mr. Canny had
garden that was pointed out as a
model. He experimental with vege-
tables and flowers, and although he
had nothing but the back yard of
liOx6O-foot lot he produced sufficient
vegetables to supply his table, with a
good quantity left for sale. 1t was
this experience that led him to believe
that with irrigation he could uti ize
every foot of an acre and make liv-
ing for his family while nursing him
self back to health. Mr.. Canny has
purchased some rare seeds and cuttings
for experimental purposes. He will
set aside small portion of the garden

Population of the Philippines

The total population of the Phillip
pine archipelago as returned from 342
independent islands is 1875, 42G. Os
this number almost seven million are
more or less civilized. The wild
trines form about 8 per cent of the
entire population. The civilized
tribes are practically all adherents of
the Catholic church The Moros are
Mohammedans, and the other wild
peoples have no recognized religious
beliefs.
The total population, according to
the most reliable authorities, is a
little more than four times as great as
it was one hundred years ago. Dur
ing the same period that of the United
States multiplied almost fifteen times.
The excess of birth rate over death
rate in the Philippines has been
large, in spite of sudden and great
losses as a result of epidemics of vari
GUS diseases.
While it is true that the enumera-
tion of the wild tribes, according to
the methods employed among civilized
peoples, was not practicable, vely
CAREFUL and painstaking estimates
were made, and the returns are prob
ably within 10 per cent of the true

An Important Water Decision

Recently Judge Moses Hailett, in
decision against the diversion of
water from its natural course. In
banding down his decision, the judge
says:
the people of state to divert running
water to the injury of riparian owners
of another state is untenable. The
doctrine of riparian ownership is not
subject to the limitation of political
boundaries. Between states dwelling
in peace and concord. as the states of
oul union, the equal rights of the
inhabitants of each state to the waters
he recognized. Water is essential to
human life in the same degree as light
and air, and no bounds can be set to
its use for supplying the natural
Creator has made on the face of the
earth
1T is enough that the complainants
and their grantors were in possession
and enioyments of the water long
time prior to the respondents diver
sion, and We're therefore the first ap-
propriators und,r the law of the land
as understood in Wyoming and Colo
radu.
THE question has been raised
| whether the complainauts' appropria-
tiOn in the waters of Sand or EEK were
of all the waters of the strean The
evidence establishes the fact that they
were so entitled to the whole flow,
when the respondents claimed for
! themselves.
| The Denver Times, commenting on
the decision, says:
"The decision given by Judge
! Ilallett in water case the other day
was of more than passing Importance.
! As the Times reads the decision
| the judge held that in the matter of
| water rights there are no state bound
aries. The water belongs, he says, to
I the prior appropriation for beneficial
use, when such appropriation is actu-
ally used, whether the appropriation be
in Colorado or in Wyoming, Kansas,
| Nebraska or other states.
| I'm the case before him certain
farmers in Wyoming Immediately
north of the Colorado had been
using water for irrigation for years
under a grant made by the territory of
| Wyoming more than thirty years ago
| a few years since certain Colorado
citizens formed a company which con
structed irrigation works and diverted
the water from the stream for use on

on the ground that they had the prior
