may convince them that neither
time nor money will be wasted.
For scores of years the fig was
eaten as fresh fruit, but until the
introduction of the blastophaga
in 1900 it was impossible to pro-
duce any that would compare
with those imported from Smyr-
ma. Now the fig has a future
promising great things for those
interested in it's cultivation. It
das also been pointed out that
the olive was not regarded as of
commercial value for over Of 100
years, or until growers began
making the oil, and that was not
until the year 1872.

ton by water pumped, $4,000

Irrigable lands on the Califor-
nia side, corresponding, are II,
600 acres, all within the Yuma
Indian reservation.
The drainage area Of the Col
orado river ii. e., the watershed)
above the site for the Yuma dam
is approximately 49, 900 square
miles.
To reiterate: It must be borne
in mind that the Laguna reser-
voir and dam are not for storage
purposes, but for the establish
ment Of q vast settling basin,
which shall receive the Colorado
river at the reservoirs northern
reach and hold 1t IN temporary
suspension for the settling and
deposit of its incumbering silt.
The sideways will always main
tain an open channel to feed the
irrigation canals on the Califor-
MIA and Arizona sides. When
the silt becomes too thick in the
sideways the sluicegates will
be opened; they will discharge
at a velocity sufficient to quickly
and effectively clear the settling
basin of all deposits.
The height to which the dam
will be built is only enough to
raise the water Of the Colorado
sufficiently to allow its waters to
be economically delivered to the
ands.-Times.

Santa FEES Cutoff.

From d good source it is learned that
the route of the California cutoff under
construction of the Santa F'e west from
Wickenburg, Arizona, will be almost
straight west from Parker, Yuma coun-
ty, along the south line of San Bernar-
dino county to the mountains, thence
northwest, joining the present line
near Victorville or Hesperia. The
route as surveyed is on very light
grade, and intersects a region of ex-
ceptional agricultural and mining pos
sibilities. 1t crosses east into the des-
ert, runs through the dry lake region,
passes near Dale and other promising
camps. From Parker to Victorville or
Hesperia the survey is on an almost
straight line, and shortens the dis
lance now taken between Barstow and
Besperia some forty miles,

by provision whereby the pur-

The Arrangement is proving pop
ular. The change was made be-
cause it was thought that the

IT is indeed unfortunate that
the federal deficit on June 30,
the close Of the fiscal year, should
have so far exceeded Secretary
Shaw's estimate. It amounted
to S24, 800, 900, or IS, 100000 more
than the secretary believed was
possible. Every cloud has a
silver lining, however, and it is
more than probable that the
president will find the growing
deficit d powerful weapon in his

be bitterly opposed by the stand

TIE Big YUMA DAM.
Full Description OF this Important
Undertaking.

The Laguna dam, the first and
farthest along of the several i'm
portant projects to be underta-
ken by the government under
the reclamation of arid lands
provision, will be built in the
foothills of the Sierra Madre, at
a point ten miles northeast of
Iuma-in q cup Of the hills
where the Colorado river attainS
its greatest width. In no sense
will the dam be a storage reSer-
vOir; it is to be constructed sole
ly as a settling basin to free the
water from silt (sediment) and
render it most available for irri,
cation Of arid lands.
The Laguna dam and it's asso-
eiated works, the whole compris-
ing what is known as the Yuma
= project, will require at least two
years to build. The dam is to
be of the Indian weir type, 1880
feet long; will have a maximum
height of 10 feet in the river
channel, and a minimum of 10
feet across the valley, with
maximum sea level elevation of
157 feet in the river channel and
a minimum sea level elevation of
1873 feet across the valley; the
apron of the dam will have a
width of so feet on the average
level of the bed of the stream.
The dam will raise the low water
level of the Colorado river 10
feet.

WHAT ABOUT THE ExPENses2

Among the delegates appointed by
Governor Montague TO the Quarantine
and immigration Conference. 10 be
held in Chattanooga, are Mayor BuX-
ton and Messrs. II. ID. Holmes and r..
il. Farrar. These are representative
men and If they find 1t possible to at.
tend that important meeting, Newport
News and vicinity will be well repre-
scented
One important question in connec.
ton with the conference is that of
who is to bear the expense. We un.
dcrstand that no provision has been
made in that connection and that each
delegate who attends the conference
Will have to pay his own expenses.
II hardly seems fair to expect business
men to neglect their work for several
days and in addition pay expenses
amounting tn $50 or SIS for the privi-
icge OF representing their community
in public spirited movements. If the
members of the Chamber of Commerce
feel disposed to appropriate sum sui.
iicicnt To cover the necessary en-
penses of the members who have been
appointed by the Governor to repro
sent the city at the Chattanooga con
ference. il seems to us that il would
he entirely proper to take such sep,
provided the funds are available.
Newport News and vicinity are in.
'ercsted both in quarantine methods
and In the stimulation of the proper
sort Of immigration to the South. The
city ought to be represented in the
conference. but, as we have before
said. it is hardly reasonable to expect
the delegates appointed TO lose the
time necessary TO attend the confer.
cnce and pay their own expenses also.
