Toboaaanina In 1765.


1t is interesting to note in Smollett's
Travels Through France and Italy"
that when the novelist was making an
excursion in March. 1865, from Nice
across the Maritime Alps to Turin he
descended the Pies!montese slope Of the
Col iii Tenda toward Suneo on tobog-
gan.
Having reached tie top of the noun

relish this kind of carriage, especially
as tt" mountain was very steep and
co"ere,l with such thick fog that we
could hardly see two or three yards be-
fore us. Nevertheless our guides We're
so confident and my companion, who
had passed the same way on other &C.
caslons, so secure that I ventured to
place myself on this machine, one of
the coulants standing behind me and
the other sitting before me as the con-
ductor. with his feet padding in the
snow. in order to moderate the velocity
of its descent. Thus accommodated, we
descended the mountain with such ra-
pidity that in an hour we reached L.

Mr.. Kipling, champion Of the 70.

to prove his case in his tales and po-

THAT'S what doubt. At least If this

Dry Farming in
Navajo County

"When the frost is in the pump
kin and the fodder S in the shock, )"
truly a fitting season for our
time e-honored Thanksgiving day
and, when we come to think of
it, we have much to be thankful
for these closing days of 1907.
In this favored portion of the
great southwest we have been
unusually blessed with a bounti-
full supply of moisture in the
shape of frequent and timely rain
fall during the past season.
While it is true that there was
rather over much rain during the
latter part of the season that in
terfered with the safe garnering
and housing of certain crops,
still there was a much greater
amount of all kinds OF farm pro-
ts4
ducts stored away for the win
ter's consumption than ever be-
fore in this county. The acreage
Of what is termed "Dry farming"
that has successfully been per-
formed this year was threefOld
more than of any previous year
in this locality. For an instance,
Mr.. Howard informed us recent
" that he had raised a fine Weld
of white beans near Dry Lakes
last summer without irrigation
and had the weather permitted
of the proper curing of his crop
after it had matured, he would
have had many bushels of as fine
a quality of this valuable pro
duct as are offered on the market
anywhere and would have netted
him a handsome profit, but as it
is, he has been amply repaid for
his seasons work.
We believe this country is rap
idly undergoing a transition from
a strictly Cow country" to one
in which the progressive farmer
and rancher will find a way to
make this virgin soil yield suffi-
cient return in the shape of farm
produce that will. at least in q
measure, make this county self
sustaining in that respect.
