.YAQUI COUNTRY
ATTRACTS MANY
RANCHERS FROM ALL PARTS
JOURNEY SOUTH
IRRIGATION SYSTEM ADVANCES
TOWARD COMPLETION
Thousands Of Acres Of Additional
Land viii Be Under Water Early
Next Year-Railroad to
Build

The rapid extension of the irrigating
system which the Richardson Construc-
ton company is installing in the
Yaqui delta of Sonora, Mexico, some
distance south OF Yuma, is attracting
farmers from all parts of America.
New laterals are being surveyed and
force is at work lengthening the
main canals. This work Is SO advanced
that many thousands of acres Of addi-
tional land will be under water service
early next year.
A railroad, connecting with the main
line of the c., Y. r. g. p, branch OF
will traverse those more remote por-
tions of this vast delta not now reached
by the Southern Pacific.
1t is along this branch that the first
new activity is being felt. A town
called Yaqui has been established and
several thousand acres of adjoining
lands have already been purchased by
practical California ranchers who have
decided to settle there only after hav-
ing carefully investigated the rich soil,
extensive water system and all con-
ditions connected Herewith.
The town of Yaqui will be distinct
lively American, as the lands, for miles
around, are now owned by Californians,
and those who have taken those areas
come, almost without exception, from
San Jose, Mountain View, Stockton
and localities scattered throughout the
Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys
and Ventura county.
General Movement Results
The general movement to these new,
cheap, fertile lands has resulted in ar
rangements for the application of re-
duced rates, which the Southern Pa
cifc will make effective in the near
future.
It is believed that the development
of this Mexican valley will mean as
much to southwestern America as has
Imperial valley. During past years
Los Angeles and San Francisco mer-
chants have handled from this section
carloads of the Vegetables which ripen
several weeks in advance of our home
grown products.
During the past few days a number
of sales of this land have been ffected.
Among the recent purchasers are:
H. A. Walton, $50 acres; c. 9. Dorr,
$50 acres; T. r. Cook, ~ acres; John
Nelson, 25 acres; Sterling T. Peterson.
100 acres Branca L. Peterson, SO
acres; Silas NJ Rohr, 25 acres; David
Slater, so acres; Frank Sanford so
acres; w. W. Allen, so acres; M. I.
Fisher, so acres; Chauncey P. Fairfield.
so acres; w. H. McIlveen, 80 acres; II.
F. Hossack, 500 acres; U. A. Christian,
SO acres; Thomas Darling, rs acres,
and r. M. Clark, 1000 acres.

line of the Santa Fe railway. A right

eighteen months a railroad is expected
to cross the ranch. The soil is a deep

been touched by the plow and in the
past thirty years thousands of cattle
have grown fat off its native grasses.

"GOOD OLD DAYS. DID
NOT FURNISH SUCH RECORDS
New York Herald.)

New York Herald)
Those boresome old fellows, the
gray-beards, who are piping forever
about ''the palmy days" when every
thing was lovely and they and Anan-
las did wonderful things, must hold
| their peace this week, when every
body is talking of the string of vic
| tories our young American athletes
are winning in London.
They never did anything like that
! in "the good old days did they
They never saw accomplishments on
track or field by American amateurs
that equaled those which are record
ed in the present time, did they?
Most certainly not.
Pluck and gameness and all sorts
of manly characteristics were not
wanting when the graybeards were
boys But athletics were then young
in America, and except in instances
few and far between-so rarely that
they were noted as the exception that
proved the rule--it was next to I'M
possible for us to hold our own in
any amateur contest in track field,
or water sports with England's seas
oned, brawny, and skillful young
fellows
A great change has occurred, how
ever, within couple of decades, and
in the Olympic games of this week
we are not only defeating the pick
of all England, but winning from the
athletic flower of many lands, con-
gregated now at the stadium. 1t
may sound like letting the eagle
scream" but there is no doubt that
in international manly sports the
American entry is more feared by
contestants today than is that from
any other country.
What has brought about this extra
ordinary change? The fact that our
very young boys have taken to health
full outdoor games; that the nice lit
tie, narrow-chested, spindle-legged
schoolboy of II or Is years of age of
our grandfatherss time is not known
today. In his place is a sturdy little
chap who studies like a good fellow,
but exercises in playtime for all he
is WORTH runs, jumps, swims,
boxes, plays golf, baseball tennis
and what not He is upbuilding him
self physically as we'll as mentally
and will come to young manhood
strong and vigorous, well seasoned
before he is 20, both in mind and
physique. Not only here and there,
but all over the country this is the
rule in school life and where we had
in the past dozens of young athletes
we have today tens of thousands.
Is it any wonder then that we
have sent over to London in 1908
a team that appears to be beating, in
track and field games particularly
pretty nearly everything but the
judges?

One of the Chicago Record-H erald's
crack political writer's gravely emits
the following imbecile remarks:
Naturally, a state with a record as
consistent as that of Ohio must be
looked upon as having a fixed voting
habit. Were it not for this indication
from the past almost any observer of
political conditions would now be
willing to assert that Bryan's chances
in the state are almost as good as
Taft's. But with the record of the
last twenty years staring him in the
face no one does have the temerity
to assert it. At the same time, every
one confesses to a realization of the
possibility of surprises"
