OF agriculture has issued a report on
practical Information. 10 beginners in
irrigation
There are several million acres open
for settlement i'm the United States
and irrigation works built by private
enterprise and works being construct
ed by the national government will
provide water supply for more than
a million acres of arid lands. The re-
port says these are certain to cause an
influx of settlers into western America
during the next few years. The re-
port discusses arid soils and water
supplies generally and describes how

pare land to receive water, irrigate
staple crops and how much water 20

Experience throughout the arid re-
gion," the report says. lis demon
strating that the greatest danger TO
irrigated lands is lack of drama &c.
Water applied to crops raises the
ground water, which brings with ii the
salts dissolved from the soil; capillar-
ity-brings this water to the surface
where it evaporates, the salts to ac-
cumulate until all ventilation is de-
stroyed. The only insurance against
this is proper drainage, but anything

filled with articles on the subject. The
general verdict is that Emperor Will

Emperor William, the paper adds,

as the meeting, before dispensing, had
diverted somewhat from its original
purpose. The closing feature was an
address by Abraham Ruef generally
regarded as the chief adviser of the
municipal administration. He said, in
part:
Abe Ruef's Speech.
Il come to this meeting as a private
citizen of large property interests, and
/ wish TO add that these interests were
acquired before my connection with
politics. They were earned by my hand
and brain, in spite of the insinuations
of the newspapers which have reviled
me. The conditions In this city are not
due so much to the faults of the adj
ministra ton as the calamity. and am
willing to answer any and all questions
addressed to me. and TO make any sug-
geStionS l may to help along the cause
of the city. In this form /. can get q

moved. if possible. But you cannot
find them as easily as you might i'm
agine. I am not here to dafend the
police department particularly. 1t has
men as brave as any in tha world, but
they cannot at once stop these condi-
tons. Give them a chance to redeem
themselves, and if they fail we can re-
move them for ineff1ciency."
Nothing in 1t for Him.
Some one in the assemb1age asked if
Mr.. Ruef personally intended removing
those delinquent police officials, and he
replied:
Il have nothing to do officially with
this proposition. I have never suggest
ed the appointment of Chief Oman nor
any, member of the department, and
ed during seven years except through
civil service rules. But any influence
possess VIII be put at the disposal of
this citizenship. / am devoting my
time and my life to public matters in
which there is not one cent for me-"

dress there We're many questions and
