 John Maher. of North Main street. while attempting to alight from car near his home last evening. was thrown to the ground and received severe shaking-up.

OUR PIRrHoRIc BANKS

within less than four months the people OF Los
Angeles have increased their savings banks deposits
to the extent Of s5S8434s The total of such deposits
is ssOSO65s1. During the same period the deposits
in the cys commercial banks have increased $o4S7SSb'
making the present total s4O317,297.
What means this vast increase Of $10,7710OS In Los
Angeles bank deposits within the brief period since
March 1? Evidently 1t shows that there has been an
extraordinary inflow of money from abroad for Invest
ment in property and business enterprises The many
thousands Of visitors during the winter and spring
months kept in mind on returning to their homes the
opportunities they saw here for profitable Investments
Vast sums on deposit or invested in the east have been
transferred for investment in Los Angeles.
But the inflow of investment capital from abroad.
no matter what the source does not account in any
measure for the remarkable swelling of our savings
banks deposits. In less than onethrd of year the
thrifty people of this city have added than 21
per their store of cash savings 1t safe to say
that such record cannot be matched by any other
large city in the United Staesnor elsewhere, for that
matter.
This marvellous showing means that the busy in
dusrious people of Los Angeles prosperous that
they can increase their total savings at the present
rate of about $15OO0O0 month This increase is made
notwithstanding the fact that the general class of saw
ngs banks depostors is constantly investing largely in
the building of homes in buying lots for future home
purposes
The facts and figures here given are most striking
evidence even for Angeles of the prosperity of this
community They speak eloqneny of good times for all
classes aording opportunities for all who are indus
rious and thrifty to provide cozy homes and lay up
snug sums in savings for the proverbial rainy day"

NATURES FREAK IN NEVADA

The new gold mining district in Nevada upsets all
recognized theories concerning gold deposits All ltera-
experience and knowledge bearing on gold discov-
agree the of southern Nevada is about
place earth where the presence of the metal
might reasonably be expected. And because OF this
violation of all it's precedents the part of nature,
geoogsts and mineralogiss hardly be made to be-
leve that products of Nevada dggings really
from the district to which they credited.
What is called the Goldhed mining district was un-
known until two years ago. when group of young men
outing of original research chanced to explore in
the dreary wastes 200 miles south of Reno Much to
their amazement they discovered gold where no
geologst had limited of its existence.
AS result of that discovery $5,O00,0O0 Of gold
taken from the district in less than two years accord
ing the July number (ust in hand) of the Technical
World magazine. And the authority says: THE
estimated aggregate output during this year is con-
servatively placed at $7,0O0000."
Speaking of the anomalous character of the deposits
in the Goldfeld district the Technical World says
"They are of sedimentary origin bearing traces
of volcanic action and have counterpart anywhere,
so far the mining world knows. Having been discov
cred by tenderfeet the has been looked
with doubt and caution by the technically educated
members of the mining profession until thorough nves
LEGATIONS could be made; nevertheless, the conditions
which the gold appears continue to nonpus
those prepared pass opinions the region after
devotng weeks to its study and examination"
1t is the generally accepted belief of biologists who
have examined the district that it the bottom
of an inland sea, and that the gold precipitated
during countless ages, long antedating the and
lodges in which the gold now is found In the whole
district there veins lodes contacts. The
of the earth appears have opened in response to
pressure from below during the seismic PERIOD
admitting filing of quartz and porphyry in congom
This peculiar freak of nature in hiding its wealth
is another evidence that in this land of gold have
thus far unearthed only comparatively few of the
cret stores

IRRIGATION NECESSARY UP NORTH

Strange it may SEEM the most earnest California
call for government irrigation aid does not from
the socaled semiarid region of Southern California.
The oudes and most persistent appeal emanates from
the valley In that valley, it is said there
are 100000 acres of tillabe land. 1t is wheat
producing region and has been generally rated abroad
quite prosperous. 1t appears, however, that the
wheat product is not profitable and that the one thing
necessary to it profitable is comprehensive sys-
of irrigation.
In regard to this rather surprising aspect of agr-
culture in the Sacramento valley note this statement by
the Sacramento "At the present tme according to
practical familiar with all the conditions, the
wheat growers of the valley not getting return
of than SO yearly from the total acreage
of their farms. following the usual summer following
system by which half the land lies idle each year." In
with that gloomy disclosure is the showing
irrigated alfalfa fields which, the Bee declares furnish
the most convincing object lessons of the incompatible
superiority of irrigation over dry farming"
But only by government aid it seems, can the Sac
rameno valley be irrigated properly and 1t estimated
that the would be $40 acre. making 900 900
for the whole 100000
