Getting a Start i'm Life
1u---> d. III. Dieken, in Che Farmers Guide :


even by working by the month.
Now, let Us suppose we have
this much. The next step is 70
rent a farm. This is one great
stride towards independence. Rent
farm with a. good soil as can be
found and Que that can be retain
ed for number OF years if possi-
BILE. As far as terms, etc, go,
both tenant and landlord should
have "a fair and square showing.
The tenant should make up his
mind to do his very best. He
should give his crops extra good
tiIlage and make an agreement
with the land lord to grow differ
ent crops in rotation. Keep as
much good stock as the size of
farm will permit and save and APP
ply as much manure rs possible.
If the farm is out of repair, do
not be afraid to clean up little
without pay, Do your best, and
the pay will come later.
One thing more: Husband and
wife must GO arm and arm, hand
in hand in this matter or the chan
ces are they will never meet with
much success. They should be
equal partners, working for each
others interests. The income the
first year may not be large, but
save some of it. The first money
laid by was only S35. That mon
ey was as precious to us then as
ten times that amount now. There
were many things we needed, but
we chose to do without for some
years, that we might add to that
amount. This we did until we
considered that it had grown large
enough to make payment on a
farm home for ourselves. The
same rule holds good in finishing
paying for the farm. We must
employ industry, economy, hon
esty and morality to make ends
meet, as we should have them to.
| do not recommend The penury
or miser system, but do recon-
mend using good judgment in the
disposal of all that we earn. This
thing of getting II good start In
life has been done by thousands
of our parents and grandparents,
and it can be done in this day and
age and will be done in the future.
| am not pointing toward great
riches, but independence, which is
greater than riches.

WATER IS ASSURED
To WILLOWS

C. NJ. Wooster received a letter yes
terday notifying him that a committee
appointed by the Chamber of Com
merce of Willows has secured 5000
acres of water rights, which was requi-
site for giving Willows water through
the big central canal for irrigating.
This makes it certain" said Woos-
ter last evening, that the water will
be turned on for Willows the coming
spring. In fact in spring water will
flow for the first time through the
canal from the intake on the Sacra-
mento River in Tehama County to VIII
lows, distance of sixty miles
The water must be siphoned under
Willow Creek at Willows. At Maxwell,
in Colusa County the water must be
piped under the railroad We will
look out for Maxwell as soon as the
system is installed to Willows. Twenty
five thousand water rights have been
secured at Maxwell
The branch canal of the system al
ready extends along the Sacramento
River through the Glenn, Packer and
Boggs ranches TO Princeton, a distance
of twenty miles. This will be extended
to Colusa IL pending negotiations result
favorably.
The canal system in its entirety
will irrigate 100000 acres The works
has cost s1.100. 900 to date and will
have cost s1,500,00O when it is com
pleted. In addition OF the sixty miles
of main canal there will be about 200
miles of laterals, of which a large
mileage has been charged"

COURT RE|NSTATEG
MAN IN UNION


George DingwaJl was reinstated to
membership in the Amalgamated As
ISOLATION of Street Railway Employees
of America through a decision rendered
yesterday by the District Court of Ap-
peal, which held that his expulsion
from that organization was illegal.
The case was decided in Dingwall's
favor in the Superior Court also. He
became a member of the organization
in August, 1901, and was expelled by
the executive board in December, 1902.
He was serving as treasurer and secre-
tary of the association, when he was
charged with having held secret meet
ings with other members for the pur-
pose of working against the interests
of the union and against its president,
Richard Cornelius. He was denied the
right to employ attorney when tried
before the executive board, and there
fore refused to attend.
The court decides that Dingwall was
subject to nothing more than a fine at
the hands of the union.

TELLS Of YEAR. 5
WORK At MINIS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE annual
report of George E. Roberts, Director
of the Mint, was filed today. 1t shows
that the coinage was less during the
last year than for several years pre-
vious. owing chiefly to the exhaustion
of the stock of silver bullion. The Phil
adelphia Mint was idle three months
and the New Orleans Mint four months
The San Francisco Mint did no work
after the earthquake and fire.
The total of domestic coinage was
167,371,035 pieces of the value of
$60,216,741. OF this $53,0O2,097 was in
gold coin, S4,016,367 was subsidiary
silver coin, $2.3O2.397 was in five-cent
nickels and sS95.Ss4 was in bronze one
cent pieces. There was also a coinage
of 25,0000,000 pesos in gold for the
Mexican Government; 100000 fractional
pieces for the Government of Costa
Rica; one million half Balboa pieces for
the Government of Panama, and 1857
629 pesos and 1887 pieces in fractional
silver coins for the government of the
Philippine Islands.
The new mint at Denver began ope-
rations in February, 1906, and at the
close of the fiscal year was employing
155 people.

ian yesterday as result of a contro-
versy as to who should have the right

bullets passing through Manu's stom-
ach, lodging in his spine. The Italians

SHEA WANTED To
Use DYNAMITE

CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-Evidence was
introduced in the Shea trial today GO
ing to prove that President Shea dur
ing the strike of the teamsters last
year seriously considered the use OF
dynamite as a means of winning the
strike Michael Kelly, who was in
charge of one of the squads of pickets
testified on the stand today that Shea
had asked him If he knew of anybody
who could handle dynamite
He also said that knives were given
out to the pickets with instructions
that they were to be used on colored
men who had taken the places of the
strikers, and also for the purpose OF
cutting harness. The attorneys for the
defense made strong fight against the
admission Of this testimony of Kelly,
but Judge Hall decided that 1t was ad-
missible.

ceedingly good time for the club to do
something in the way of amusing the
public 1t could give a set of gym
khana games at one of the nearby
racing tracks 1t could be free gate
affair. or the event could be given for
charity. Unquestionably it would be
an attraction and would afford much
amusement. The games at Del Monte
were the most enjoyable that the club
ever held. They were novelties which
even the most jaded automobilist en-
joyed. A set of gymkhana games for
the benefit of the public would be one
of the most attractive events that
could be held. and at the same time
would be instructive in the extreme,
for they would show the possibilities
in the way of manipulating the motor
car. One would have only to see these
games to realize the possibilities of
the automobile.
