TOMATOES
c Great and Prolific Crop Grown in the Ysqui Delta, With Handsome Profit to Producers.

One of the great products oi Sonora coming into favor rapidly in the United States, where ha. risen great and growing demand Is the fruit or vegetable known far and wide as the tomatoe, fresh and right off from the vines. The great Heculiarity and advantage of the Sonora over all other tomatoes IS it can be grown and put upon the American market just at the time when the frost and freezing weather of the winters have killed all the American fresh tomatoes, whether from Maine to Florida or California; and that is from the first of January until the latter part of May or early in June. By the Christmas time the sweeping bliz- zard5 of the north, or the nipping frosts to which California and Flo rida are subject, have caused dis appearance from market of the last American tomato. And then, during nearly five long months the Yaqui river tomatoes com mand the market, almost. It has been only within the two seasons last past that the American public have been aware that in the win ters and early spring was there s0 delicious tomato to be had and in such abundance, as that produced in the Yaqui delta Dur ing the early months of 1907 the shipments of Sonora tomatoes averaged more than five tons daily; and could there have been as many E,roduced ten tons daily would not have filled the demand The pro- ducers in the great Yaqui delta are awakening to the fact, and there are preparations in hand for much greater shipments in the early months of 1908. But the great American public realized the fact that the fruit is to be had, and the demand will keep pace with the supply.
 From MT. Elmer NJ. Anderson, of Bacum, on the lower Yaqui who Is preparing to plant one hundred acres Tn tomatoes, for the season of 1908 THE OASIS has gleaned the following facts with regard to the cultivation of the tomato in the winter season, and Its marketing, that will be read with interest:
 The planting is done in the mid dle of September First the ground is cleaned of all brush and weeds, and covered with water to a depth vi oae foot. and the water is per mitted to soak in. That one irri- gation Is all that will be needed. When the ground is sufficiently &ry to blow readily the blows are pUt in, and the soil is pulverized thoroughly. Then the seed is sown very thickly. At the end of fifteen days the young plants have grown to a size fit for the first transpian6ng, and they are set two or three inches apart and permit ted to grow another fifteen days, giving the young plants hearty growth, and making them strong and stocky. At the end of the sec ond period of fifteen days they are transplanted again, being set at chat time in rows five feet apart, aad the plants six feet apart in the EOw. That arrangement gives 1 400 plants to the acre, and is made to

 The tomotoc. begin ripcuiuq early in January and Che vines continue Co produce long after the market is closed by the advent of the American tomato But, it is said that each produces during the season fifteen pounds of marketa- ble tomatoes. The ripe fruit is picked, packed in crates with four baskets in each crate, each basket holding five pounds. They are shipped by express to either Los Angeles or Chicago. To Chicago the express charges, tariff duties paid the American government and commissions, are S125, American money, per crate; to Los Angeles the total charges amount to $l per crate. In January and February, 1907, the quoted prices in Chicago were $3.25 to $4 per crate, from January to June the average price was $2 to $250 per crate: leaving at least S1 per crate to cover the cost of growing and packing That Mir. Anderson states will not exceed fifty cents gold, per crate. With 1,200 plants per acre, yield ing fifteen pounds to each plant, the total yield per acre will be 930 crates, netting $465 per acre Amer ican money.
 The figures given seem incredi- ble, but Mir. Anderson is a man of much experience in these lines, and his calculations have been yer flied by both observation and ex- perience. There are many more products of the Yaqui delta that do as we'll They foreshadow a great future for the horticultural and ag- ricultural interests of that remark able region.

WHAT LINDSEY SAID.

Judge Ben Lindsey, the famous
| juvenile court justice of Denver. who
has attained high place on the chau-
tauqua circuit, was recently quoted as
saying in an interview in the east that
Senator Simon Guggenh elm. of Colo
RADIO, had bought his way into the
United States senate and ought to be
hung. For which alleged statement
Judge Lindsey has been severely criti-
cised throughout the country.
On his return home few days ago
Judge Lindsey issued a statement, ex-
planning that the sensational portions
of his interview had been quoted and
the qualifying statements left out.
Those interviews" he says, were
exaggerated in part. and in part they
stated exactly what I said, and no
word of which Go I intend to take
back, but Il 1 had the power, 1 would
like to emphasize it all the stronger.
1 said Guggenheim bought his way into
the senate. said that those men who
represented the lawlessness of preda-
tory wealth and who. through the cor
rupt use of money. poisoned the sources
of democracy at its fountain-head by
controlling the political parties
Through which. alone, the people
have the power to express themselves),
in the interest of monopoly, class
privilege, and special interests, were
just as dangerous criminals as the man
who threw the bomb. and that. by the
corruption of legislatures, they had
in Colorado, prevented the passage of
laws for the benefit of humanity and
designed to restore representative gov
eminent. and. in this way had poison
ed and killed men and murdered de-
mocracy. l said 1 did not believe in
hanging, but if they are going to hang
one class of the guilty. justice demand
ed they should hang the other. 1 said
there had been more or less of class
war in Colorado. but that our people
are loyal and patriotic and, in time,
they could be trusted to end the law
lessness of both"

F. d. COBURN.

This suggestion that Secretary Co
burn be called out as compromise can
didate for governor sounds first rate.
1t is one that the warning factions
ought to be able to readily agree upon.
OF course, Mr.. Coburn's wishes will
have to be considered. for a man who
will push aside a United States sena-
torship is liable to have preferences
with regard to accepting a job as gov
ernor.
But there is wide difference between
the two offices. In the United States
senate Mr.. Coburn would have been
injected into the legislative arena, with
its wire-pulling and intrigues, and he
would have had no opportunity to ac-
complish anything unless he were re-
elected, and to secure a reelection it
would have been necessary for him to
engage in a rough-and-tumble political
fight. which was entirely foreign to his
nature. AS the Republican candidate
for governor his election would be
practically unanimous and he would
be free to carry out any policies that
his well known executive ability might
indicate would be best for the people
Of the state.
1t is still somewhat early in the game
for the people to decide definitely whom
they wish for governor, but there is no
doubt concerning the popularity of Mr..
Coburn or the peoples faith in his
ability and integrity. He has no use
whatever for politics in the general use
OF the term. He is not allied with
either the machine element or the
Square Deal crowd. Yet If he were
governor both sides would get an alb
solute square deal from him. So would
the railroads, and the farmers, and
every other Kansas interest
Nor would Kansas lose her "advertis-
ing agent should Mr.. Coburn become
governor. In the office of chief exec
utive Of the state he could do a better
job of advertising the state and its re-
sources than ever. AS governor he
would command an even larger audi
ence than he does in his present posi-
ton.
Here is another point: 1t has been
over a decade since Kansas had an old
soldier governor, and 1t has been the
current supposition that 1t would never
have another. While he never works
at the old soldier business, F. D. Co
burn is a veteran of the Civil war.
Few people ever hear him speak of
his war record, yet he enlisted in 1868.
at the age of II, and he served until
he was mustered out at Fort Gibson in
1865.
Amid the political clamor in Kansas
today-the charges and recriminations
of warning factions-could the people
advance the interests OF the state fur
Their than by taking the making of
governor out of the hands of the poll
ticians and putting F. D. Coburn on
the job-if he will consent? 1t is for
the people to decide whom they want.
The suggestion of Mr.. Coburn's name
should, and doubtless will, have their
deepest consideration.

FAILURES

Il notice" remarked Bill DoolittIe to-
day, as he settled himself in a chair in
the exchange room and put on his fight
ing cast of countenance, that prohibit
ton doesn't prohibit in the dry coun-
ties Of Georgia any more than 1t does in
Kansas. Down there 81 counties have
local option, but liquor is sold in 'em
right along. Why, 422 government IL
quor licenses were issued for those 80
counties. I tell you, you can't stop IL
quor sellin'.- and you might just as well
quit tryin'. This prohibition law only
makes perjurers and hypocrites out of
men. If 1t wasn't for prohibition, men
wouldn't lie so much to get LIQUOR. If
you could enforce this fool prohibition
law it would be different, but it can't
be enforced. It's bound to be violated.
an I'm agin it." And Bill settled down
with the air of the man who has said
all there is to be said.
Something in that observed Dea-
con Twogood, pausing in his perusaI OF
a shortgrass paper. This prohibitorv
law IN Kansas certainly makes a lot of
men lie, and suppose local option
works the same way down in Georgia
1 remember hearin' you swear, Bill,
that you didn't know whether it was
beer or something else that you crank
