but two or three days. After twenty
four hours here he remarked that the
city and its women were charming;
after forty-eight hours in the city he

LAS VEGAS IS
THE COMING CITY

1t is getting to be a common thing
now to meet people who have visited
Las Vegas, the coming city of com
mercial importance close to the rich
mines clustering around Bullfrog, Gold
field and Tonopah.
Yesterday w. j. Millen, lumber
dealer of San Fernando, was in Los
Angeles on his return from Las Vegas,
where he will soon engage extensively
in the lumber trade.
Mr.. Millen, in an interview, said:
II was at Las Vegas to view the stu
good to me. Las Vegas Is sure to be the
big town in the mining section. 1t is
growing rapidly. There are many good
stores there now, carrying stocks valued
at over 100000, and everybody seems
prosperous.
Las Vegas Is a great place for out
fitting people going into the mining dis
tricts. Twenty teams left for Bullfrog
and Goldfield while 1 was there, all
taking loads of supplies bought at the
stores.
"There is no trouble about the supply
of water for domestic purposes. 1t is
ample aside from the stream south of

In conclusion the speaker declared
Southern Californans have the greatest
opportunities in the line of agriculture
for the most valuable work. He said
now is the time to strike and keep at It.
Mr.. Reed was the next speaker. He Is
an extensive fruit grower and prom
inent member of the Riverside chamber
Of commerce. Mr.. Reed said:
Urges Cooperation
I'VE have three general problems
which must be solved If our great
citrus industry, already worth $20,000,-
900 to the country in its product and
the handling Of It, is to continue pros
porous, even in the near future.
I'VE have arrived at a point where
a few thousand additional cars of or
anges per annum, of present average
quality, with present average methods
Of handling, with present average cost
loss to the average grower and prove
disastrous to the general industry.
F'lorida's misfortune has enabled the
eastern markets to take this seasons
product at remunerative prices But
this may not be repeated again for
nual increase from our orchards in
sight that will give us an addition of
over 10000 cars before the present de-
cade closes. To escape the disaster
which this vast increase portends we
must produce higher grade of fruit;
we must produce 1t at a cost that will
leave a margin Of profit when sold at
such price as will vastly increase
it's consumption.
"To solve these problems successfully
and in time to preserve our great in
dustry from misfortune, we need the
continuance of the scientific trained
help of the department of which our
distinguished visitor is chief. till our

awakened to our needs and which is

Mr.. Powell Speaks
Mr.. Powell followed Mr.. Reed, telling
of fruit packing. shipping, etc. He
outlined at length the experiments be-
ing carried on by the government in
this respect.
Prof. Stubenrauch, who is making
a five years study of fruit growing
in Southern California for the benefit
of the student body OF the University
of California, told of the experiments he
has been carrying on.
Congressman Daniels was the last
speaker. He urged the fruit growers
to get together and work for the COM
mon good, saying that with all in
terests co-operated the desired legisla-
ton to prosecute the experimental work
will be forthcoming.
At the close of the meeting Mr.. Gal
loway stated that he intends recon-
mending to congress that $25,000 be ap-
propriated for experiments in this field
next year.

A Bamboo Land.

4 recent traveller in China impressed
with the wide usefulness Of bamboo
thus states some Of the possibilities:
\ man can sit in bamboo house,
under bamboo roof, on a bamboo
chair, at a bamboo table, with his feet
resting on bamboo footstoOl, with a
bamboo hat on his head and bamboo
sandals on his feet He can ut the
same time hold in one hand Il bamboo
bowl, in the other bamboo chopsticks
and eat bamboo sprouts.
When through with his meal. which
has been cooked over bamboo fire.
the table may be washed with BAN
boo cloth, and he can fan himself with
a bamboo fan and take a siesta on q
bamboo bed, lying on a bamboo mat,
with his head resting on bamboo pill
low. His child might be lying in u
bamboo cradle, playing with bam-
boo toy.
On rising, he could smoke bamboo
pipe and, taking bamboo pen, write
a letter on bamboo paper or carry his
articles i'll bamboo baskets suspended
from a bamboo pole, with a bamboo
umbrella over his head. He might
then take a walk over bamboo sus'
pension bridge, drink water out of q
bamboo ladle and scrape himself with
a bamboo sweat scraper (handker'
chief. The bamboo ingenuity and per-
sistency have produced (bamboo) joint
results which exhibit the pOtentialities
and possibilities of the Chinese people

Concrete In Relation to Bridges and CuIverts
For Roads.

1t is the popular opinion that concrete made of
the sand and iron rock of this parish is not good
and lasting product. From the results have OBJ
tanned from using it, am satisfied it is valuable
and economical material, and one which we could
use to advantage in this locality.
1t is we'll known fact among engineers that good
concrete is as lasting as the Pyramids of Egypt.
There used to to set formula among contractors
which was: One part of Portland cement to two
parts of sand, and three parts of broken stone or
gravel Owing to the Improvement in American
manufacture over the English and German makes,
have found that good and lasting results can be
obtained by mixture of one part cement, four of
sand, and seven parts of broken iron rock such as
is found lying on the surface in many parts of this
parish. The sand was taken from the beds of water
ways close at hand.
This material could be adopted in many places
where timber construction is now generally used,
and in few years save the parish much expense.
It is material we'll adapted to this kind of con-
struction; being plastic it be moulded into any
desired form, and when once set is harder than
most stone. Under competent direction the negro
can mix and put in place we'll four-dollar-a-
day mason. A good brand of American cement
can be had in this market for S1.75 per BARREL in
large lots
barrel of cement mixed with sand and stone in
the proportions mentioned above (namely one four,
and seven) will build the abutments to small sized
bridge. The forms can be made of the cheapest
grade of inch board with two by four inch peces
for uprights. An abutment made of this concrete
with proper batter or slope from bottom to top with
wings set at an angle to prevent the water from
getting between it and the fill, would last many
generations.
Poorly made concrete is the worst of all poor con-
structing material, and is worthless When you see
poor concrete, in nine out of ten it is the fault
of the constructor in charge of the actual work. and
not of the materials Therefore if any construction
of this kind is to be used, few sample blocks should
be made until satisfactory proportions obtained.
Concrete should never be used except under COM
petent director. The material should be clean and
only the best grade of cement used

Avoiding Rheumatism.

According to the Medical Record, the
way to get rid of uric acid, the accumu-
lation of which in the body causes rheu-
matism, is to maintain the alkalinity of
the blood. One cause of diminished al
kalinity is "high nutrition" excessive
eating-but not much is to be gained by
excessive reduction of the amount of
food taken. A happy mean is to be
maintained, as regards the quantity of
food consumed, between too much and
too little. People who underfeed them
selves usually have subnormal temper
ature, defective circulation, and deficient
blood color, and are very susceptible to
bacterial infections. Warm clothing
and avoidance of needless exposure to
cold are required of one who wishes to
prevent the accumulation of uric acid.
A nice balance of mental and physical
labor is also prescribed. The injunction
to abstain from fruit when out of season
from October to April-is hard saw
ing. Eating freely of potatoes, especial
ly in cold weather, is recommended by
Alexander Haig, whose opinion has
weight. Only in very warm weather,
he says, may fruit be taking safely to
any large extent. Some emphasis is laid
on securing proper distribution of time
between bodily and mental exertion.
Above all, says DR.. Haig, one must eds
spense with dependence on tonics, stimu-
lants and bracing climates. The result
will be better balance of mind and body
and more healthy, natural, and usefu
existence than has been generally exper.
fenced either by ourselves or our ances'
tors in the previous century. "-Balti'

Died Of Quarantine.

Through letter to the Mer Rouge Democrat last
week, and other sources we learned of a sad case
whereby an unknown white man lost his life on
account of-not yellow fever-but the guarantees.
This poor man, after being landed at Vidalia, from
Vicksburg boat was hunted and driven about for
weeks until he fell and persisted by the wayside
No town or hotel or farm house would admit him or
listen to his appeals until being turned back at the
State line in his attempt to return to his home, he
fell by the railroad track between Bonita and JONES'
Kind hands at last came to his aid even though
suspected of having the dread disease, and gave
him food and medicine, but he had already suffered
past all human endurance and could only be reliev-
ed by death.
No one is to blame either, for it was struggle
for self-preservation on both sides, in which the
odds were against him and he lost. But it is a sad
story, and probably is one of many such cases. AT
such times as this humanity is at discount and
charity is swallowed up in frenzied selfishness.-
