Walrus and Bullets.

The most vulnerable spot in which to
hit a walrus is the back part of the
skull. The forehead. being several
inches thick in bone. almost invariably
turns bullets even if solid ones are used
in big rifle, as should always be done.
Besides the head. with the exception of
the heart, there is hardly a vital spot

San Luis Valley Demand.

The farmers of the San Luis
valley are entitled to the sympathy
and active support of their fellow
citizens in other parts of Colorado
in their effort to induce the de
partment of the interior to resciud
its order prohibiting the construc-
tion of storage reservoirs in that
valley.
Inability 10 store water for irri-
cation and thereby supplement the
bitches already built. interferes
greatly with the agricultural de-
velopment of that part of the
state. and the whole of Colorado
is interested in doing away with
the opposition of the department
of the interior
1t should be- presumed that the
order in question was issued in
full confidence that it was entirely
within the scope Of the authority
of the secretary of the interior
and that its enforcement was es-
sential to the preservation of ir-
rigation rights in New Mexico and
at points farther down the valley.
Acting on this assumption. every
one should maintain cool temper
and Join in bringing to the atten-
tion of the department the two
highly important facts that stor-
age in the San Luis valley is not
detrimental to irrigation lower
down and that under the decision
of the supreme court of the Unit
ed States in the Kansas Colorado
case the order in question was is
sued without legal authority.
1t is but reasonable to suppose
that when the attention of the
secretary is called to the fact that
the federal government has no
to interfere with the
of water from an in
terstate stream he will rescind the
order. Denver Re
