Precious Irrigating Water Running 10
Waste--Need OF Reservoirs.

Special Correspondence
Bloomington, Washington CO.. Feb. 2.
Fine weather is now the order OF the
day In Dixie. yet there has been so
much rain III the past that the roads
have been almost impossible, The
malls have been late on account of
muddy roads, and farther north some
deep snow. If this kind of weather
confines. It won't be long before al
monds and apricots will be in bloom.
There is considerable water now In
the Rio Virgin and Santa Clara, and it
is a pity that this water, which is now
going to waste. cannot be run into re-
servoIrs and retained for summer use,
so that two or three thousand more
acres of land could be brought un-
der cultivation. There Is plenty Of
land that could be utilized, II there
was enough enterprise and money to
locate and build the reservoirs to store
the water in. II capitalists would In
vest in such enterprises, they would
pay good dividends.

ARAB HORSES HAVE No SPoTs.-
Homer Davenport, who Is described ir
the Woman's Home Companion as
fresh from the Arabian desert" de-
clares there is no such thing as spot
ted or piebald Arabian steed.
"Circuses are perhaps more to blame
for the Misrepresentation of the Arab
horse than any other source" says he
"a friend Of mine owns a circus, and
saw his posters a few years ago
claiming to exhibit 1S or 20 or the only
Arabian horses brought to America.
HE said the were captured with
great difficulty and brought to New
York by a special permit of the sui
tan; that they were Of the family
known in history as the Eagle Feath-
er horses, so much priced in the Queen
Of Sheba's days; that they were snow
white with big markings In their spots
of the tip Of eagle feathers.
I'VE don't have to believe everything
we read on the circus posters. In this
case I am mighty certain that these
Spotted Arabians' were bought at AL
bany, Ore. .,,s
1.-The most peculiar part OF TINS
spotted horse business Is this, and II
Is not a very strange reason when you
know 1t, that spotted anything Is Gre
ated by a mixture of different races
or different breeds, and that likely ac-
counts for the fact that the Arabian
desert in all its history has never pro-
duced a spotted or piebald horse; pos
sibly from the fact that there Is never
any mixture Of blood"

Problem For the Brakeman.

A young man on a certain excursion
train noticed poor woman who stood
up and searched her pocket wildly.
Been robbed, ma'am?" he inquired.
"Oh, no." she answered; but It's
just as bad. I've lost my ticket and
I've got no money The railroad will
arrest me for fraud"
WELL" said the young man, i've
got no money either; but here. take
my ticket and I'll give the brakeman
problem"
When the brakeman came through,
the young man, to confuse him, kept
moving about the car. Finally, though,
he was cornered.
Tickets" said the brakeman.
you've got my ticket" said the
young man.
Il haven't got it," said the brake
man.
Yes, you have"
"Wem see about this. I'll call the
conductor"
When the conductor came he said to
the young man with scowl:
where's your ticket?"
He's got my ticket" was the reply.
See If he hasn't got ticket with a
small piece off the corner"
why, yes, you have, Jim. There 1t
is," said the conductor reproachfully.
And here's the piece" said the
young man. See if it doesn't fit"
It fitted and the conductor and
brakeman went off arguing and gestic-
ulating.
II thought that was a problem they
wouldn't answer" said the young man.

PAYING For HAVING DONE A FAVOR.
An automobile dashed along the
counry road. Turning a curve, 1t
came suddenly upon a man with gun
on his shoulder and weak, sick
looking old dog beside him. The dog
was directly in the path of the motor
car. The chauffeur sounded his horn,
but the dog did not move-until he
was struck. After that he did not
move.
The automobile stopped and one OF
the men got out and came forward
He had once paid a farmer $40 for
killing a calf that belonged to anoth-
err farmer. This time he was wary.
WAS that your dog?"
YES"
You own him."
Yes"
Looks as if we'd killed him."
Certainly looks So"
VERY valuable dog?"
well, not so very"
"Will $5 satisfy you?"
Yes"
We'll, then, here you are" He
handed a IS bill to the man with the
gun, and added pleasantly, I'm sorry
to have broken up your hunt"
II wasn't going hunting" replied the
other as he pocketed the bill.
Not going hunting? Then what
were you doing with the dog and the
gum"

the dog."-Youth's Companion.
