ENCOURAGEMENT FOR 'RAsTus.

From the New York SUI.
Al a recent dinner which was at.
tended by a number of cIergymen,
President Buckham of the University
of Vermont told III following on
Bishop Hall of the Episcopal diocese
of Vermont, in response to some
good natured chaff o the liberal
views of the Congregational church
and the. ease with which almost any
body could join it.
He sal that he had heard of a ne
gro who a nan times applied for
membership in St. Paul's church at
Burlington, but had not been able to
satisfy the Bishop that his state of
mind entitled hin to admission. The
negro had been advised to pray that
his spiritual condition might i'm
prove.
After doing so he made a new APP
plication. The Bishop said to him:
well, Erastus, have you prayed
as l told you tor"
"Yas indeedy, sub; l done prayed

PROJECT.
The Earth, Chicago.

The Earth, Chicago.
In no part of the arid west has
the wisdom of the Reclamation Act
and the blessings vouchsafed by its
ly illustrated than in the Territory
of New Mexico.
On the lower Hondo river, a branch
of the Rio Pecos, in southwestern
New Mexico, about the time that ma
tional irrigation was initiated, dwelt
a dissatisfied farming community.
The use of the waters of the Hondo
by settlers farther up stream had so
depleted the flow of that river that
the farmers in the lower valley were
forced to rely on the food waters
for irrigation. Lying just to the east
in tantalizing prosperity was the
Roswell district, irrigated by its
streams, artesian wells, and springs.
So marvellous were the results, where
sufficient water was applied, that the
fiood-water farmers had been an
xiously seeking for several years the
means of impounding the large floods
which were annually going to waste
and when the Reclamation Service
sfgnffied its intention of making an
investigation, all the farmers except
two promptly surrendered heir rights
and pledged their lands to the I'M
dertaking. That their confidence was
not misplaced is proven by the fact
that the Government has so far COM
pleted its work that the food waters
will be conserved this spring, and
canals and laterals will be in read
mess to distribute the water over
the lands.
The reservoir site is a large nae
ity of which has been increased by
the construction of five entertainments
between the surrounding hills. The
water is to be diverted by means
of an earthen dam 20 feet in height,
a canal with a bottom width of 70
feet and a capacity of 1900 cubic
feet per second. This canal is pro-
vided with a weir at its lower end
over which the water will flow, al
lowing the silt to gather behind it
and be sIuiced out at intervals. The
outlet canal connects the lowest point
in the reservoir with the river, pass
ing out through a gate in one of the
fills. The channel of the Hondo river
will be used for carrying the irrigat-
ing water a distance of about a mile.
AT this point it will be turned by a
small concrete diversion dam into the
distributing canals, one on each side
of the river.
The area to be irrigated is all
first-class land, free from alkali, and
when irrigated will be easily worth
800 per acre when planted in corn
or alfalfa. If used for fruit raising
it will have a higher value. The res
ervoir has a capacity of 10000 acre
feet. under it. The cost of the sys-
tenn is estimated at $3.50. 900.
