Mules From California

One hundred aud sixty-fye govern
ment mules arrived last Saturday from
Arbucl,le, California, where they were
purchased by government buyers,
having cost Uncle Sam just an even $l97

The interest most states in the west
take in irrigation and forestry, and the
faith displayed by them in the ability
ol the irrigation congress to have some
beneficial influence on the action of the
governmental authorities as regards
these matters, was well shown BY the
number of delegates present, OF whom
Oregon had two hundred, while Califor-
nia was represented by sixty delegates,
although their trip to Boise City neces-
STATED their travelling some three thou
sand miles. Virginia, PENNSYLVANIA,
South Carolina and many other eastern
states, having no interest directly in
reclamation work, save as it effects the
welfare OF the nation at large, were
represented. Nevada, the only state in

ToPCOATS FOR THE SPRING
Overcoats to BE n Little Longer and
RnincOnts to BE Cut More
Carefully.

The spring overcoat this season has
heightened out somewhat from last spring 3
style The proper length is about to the
knee, though trade papers from the cast
say the shorter coats are still popular
there. The fashionable garment conforms
In general to the cut of the business suit.
The shoulders are broad with a slightly
concave effect on top. 1t is drawn In a,
the waist, following the general contour
Of the body. The skirt is full and inclined
to flare out at the bottom and has a vent
reaching to the waist The lapels are n
little broader than the old style and are
cut long.
The prevailing materials for overcoats
are plain and mixed worsteds, vicuna
and unfinished worsteds. The fad for hard
finish goods being gratihed here as well
as in the business suit.
The popularity of the rain coat for wear
in fair as we'll as stormy weather has led
to greater care being exercised in its
makeup. Large numbers of men have no
other light overcoat and hence are more
particular in picking out the garment. The
geneSal tendency is to follow the overcoat
styles. The waist is drawn in and the
skirt is a little fuller than usual.
In colors and material the choice is re-
stricted to some extent to the darker
shades, though a light tan is being sold.
