The Control of the Colorado River.

In the midst of the recent political
excitement not enough attention
was given by most persons to work
of vast magnitude whose conse-
quences to southern California will
be momentous. This was the regula-
tlon or control of the Colorado river.
It is now an old story of how that
turbulent stream, breaking away
from it's channel, poured great
food into the Salton sink and Great
ed a lake In the bed of the ancient
sea. For months, up to a few days
ago, the lake kept constantly ex-
panding and growing deeper, and II
began to appear at one time as
though the whole face of the coun-
try would be permanently changed.
But the engineers, under the di-
rection of Epes Randolph, grappled
with the problem and mastered It..
They have damned up the new out
let cut by the river and have turned
the stream to its ancient bed. The
vest mass of water, instead of being
a menace, will again be harnessed
into the beneficent channels of irri-
cation and will continue to make q
garden spot of the Imperial valley.
The work has been so well and
so thoroughly done that there is
not the slightest danger of a reoc-
currence OF the catastrophe which
promised to make again a desert of
what was the most fertile bit of
soil In the world, surprising even the
lands overfowed by the Nile.
This is one of the occasions when
one may properly say that "peace
hath her victories no less renowned
than war" The engineer IS, in these
workaday years of ours, n greater
and a more useful man than the war
rlor.

implements such as scrapers. avis,
needles and fish hooks, as well as
the many implements in stone, as
shown by the various stages in the
manufacture of these implements
was in every respect similar through.
out the entire region. In the manu-
facture of pottery, and especially in
regard to their designs and shapes,
they were quite similar, and It would
be impossible to distinguish the Fort
Ancient pottery from the Baum, and
the Baum from the Gartner village
site pottery. In the same valleys oc-
cupied by the Fort Ancient Culture
we find evidence of higher culture,
and for my convenience have desig-
mated this culture the Hopewell Gull
ture, taking the articles secured by
Professor Moorehead from the Hope
well mounds as the type The Fort
Ancient Culture occupied portions of
the valleys which were later occupied
by the Hopewell Culture, as was evil
denced by the results of the explora-
tions OF the Harness mound group
during the summer of 1905. After
completing the explorations of the
Harness mound, the articles taken
therefrom being of the higher cul-
ture, examined a mound located
outside of the great circle and not
far distant from the Harness group,
directly to the south, and found this
mound to be burial mound OF the
Fort Ancient Culture. At the center
of the mound, and few feet under
the surface, was found an intrusive
cremated burial, similar in every re-
spect to the cremated burials of the
Harness mound. The artifacts of the
Hopewell Culture can In almost
every object used in common by the
two cultures be ready distinguished
from those of the Fort Ancient Cul-
ture by the portrayal of the esthetlc
Ideas or the artisan.
My conclusions are, that the build
srs of the Baum mound were iso-
chronological with the dwellers in
the Baum village, for in all the sites
of the Fort Ancient Culture exam
ined, the inhabitants had an inter-
tribal trade, as evidenced by the |

Aurora Orchardists VIII Take Care
of Their Orchards.

Aurora, ore. Nov, 21.--A number
of farmers and fruit growers In this
section are going to clean up their
orchards, and keep them so in order
TO raise good grade of fruit. In
former years fruit from this section
commanded good prices. Most OF the
orchard owners are well pleased with
the decision rendered last week at
Oregon City by Judge Mcbride, hold
Ing that the fruit spraying law Is
constitutional, and they have signl-
ned their intention to abide by Il.
and see that their neighbors do the
same. so as TO make the orchard
cleaning universal. There are sew
eral good orchards In this section
that raise Just as good apples as the
Hood River fruit, and It will not be
long. the orchard men claim, before
the Aurora district will be as famous
for its apples and other fruits, as IL
is for It's hops.

PAPER
FROM
PAPYRUS

Revivlng a thousand-year-old in
dustry. a band of capitalists and
scientists of England are going to
introduce formidable competition
into the paper making of both the
United States and England. These
men won't care whether the forests
of the world are in the hands of
the paper trust or not. For they are
going to manufacture news and book
as well as wall paper and kindred
articles, out of papyrus.
The papyrus farms will be In
Egypt. The cultivation of this plant
has been extinct for over thousand
years. The papyrus reeds, at first,
will be brought to England and made
into pulp in an English mill until
sufficient trade has been worked up.
Then the papyrus syndicate will
build It's own mills in Egypt and ship
the pulp.
More and Cheaper Paper.
II. f. Winter, secretary of the
newly formed papyrus syndicate, in
an interview gave many interesting
details.
Twenty million dollars worth OF
paper alone is made In England an
nually, We shall produce better
quality of paper and sell It at
much cheaper price. The present
sources of supply for the paper trade
are being rapidly used up. Only re-
Gently Norway had TO legislate to
prevent the depletion of its forests.
Canada and the United States will
soon follow suit.
I'VE have for some years been
working on our scheme. Mr.. Smed-
ley Norton, the author and explorer,
was commissioned to revive the
seventh century papyrus reed. The
Nile grass, commonly known as
papyrus, is not the real thing. Mr.
Norton discovered some true papyrus
seeds In remote parts OF Syria and
Palestine, near the river Jordan,
and the sea OF Gaililee, and cultiva-
tion has begun.
Plants Real Papyrus.
I'VE have now an immense tract OF
land situated on the Nile in Egypt
Mr.. C. h. Clarke. the botanical ex-
pert OF Kew Gardens. has certified
that our plants are the real papyrus.
After exhaustive experiments, Dr.
ouerln welrtE. consulting chemist
and analyst to the Paper Makers
association OF Great Britain, has pro-
fuced the most admirable pulp. A
OF experts has outlined
for us all the methods for cultiya-
tion and for paper manufacture aud
we are now going ahead. Papyrus
grows In water from seven TO ten
feet high. We gather three crops a
year. Our land is irrigated by the
Nile and is only plowed every i've
years.
We will begin manufacture of
paper in the spring when We will have
10000 tons OF papyrus ready for
he market. Experiments have
proved that the yield OF papyrns
pulp. after bleaching, is much larger
han esparto pulp and exceedingly
strong. We expect TO use It for the
manufacture OF all the tnings now
being made out OF paper. Our propo.
sition Is one which viii mark a tre-
